My eyes started to open, but I didn't feel awake from a slumber. It felt more like my body was somewhere else, some void or something. As I closed my eyes and opened again, I found myself in a new place. I turned around and took in my surroundings and noticed that I was in a familiar place.

"Konoha?" I whispered as I recognized the place.

I noted that I was inside of the graveyard. There was a young familiar small pale boy with long, black hair and golden eyes looking down at a cemetery and talking to an older-looking man.

"Father!" I shouted, running towards him and the man.

My eyes widened in surprise as I was ignored by both my father and the man next to him. I then reached for his shoulder, only to go through him as he came over and picked up the white skin of a snake.

"What this?" My father asked in a soft voice holding it up.

"That's quite an excellent find. This is the shed skin of a white snake," The man said.

"Why is it white?"

"I don't know. Nobody really knows. However, since ancient times, a shits snake was said to be a symbol of good luck and rebirth."

"Good luck and rebirth," My father said, looking at the shed skin.

"Maybe your parents were rebirth somewhere, and you get to see them again one day when you grow up."

"When will that be?"

"Hard to say."

I then started walking away, confused at the scene. The next moment I then found myself behind a tree. I then saw a boy with spiky brown hair wearing a headband running forward excitedly.

"That Nawaki always so pumped," A teenage version of my father said, smiling at the boy running.

The boy then went behind a rock, which exploded with a huge blast. My father's eyes widened, and he gasped at a necklace near his feet.

I walked towards my father and realized that nobody could see me and stared at the necklace.

'I'm in the past somehow, and it seems it's my father's past. What going on?' I then find myself looking at a panting blonde woman and a young Jairya, as well as someone who reminded me of my mom standing beside her.

"So young and reckless, and after receiving such a nice gift." I turned to see my father holding out the same necklace."That is what happens when at war, Tsunade."

The woman named Tsunade started crying as Jairya and the one who looked like Mom touched her shoulder.

"I'm so sorry, cousin," The woman said.

I narrow my eyes in confusion as I once found myself in a different place. By this time, I was in a tree looking at a body covered in blood as Tsuande kept screaming don't go, and my father was crying slightly.

~~~

I was walking around in a dark void until I ended up in a house with my father doing experiments at a table.

"Orochimaru-sensei, what is this thing in here?" A young girl asked, pointing at the glass on a different table.

"That is an amulet," My father replied.

"An amulet, this thing," She said, looking at it.

"Yes, it is pretty rare. I had never seen another like it. It symbolizes both good luck and renewal."
