Hello! Let's get started!
____________________________________________________________________

"Mind telling me why I passed out? I don't think that my body is weak enough to pass out from a simple stab wound!" Naruto impatiently tapped his foot on the floor. "Also, why did you sked me get stabbed?"

I'll tell you everything but if I've to say this in short, then..... He seemed unsure. He bit his lower lips. Was there something he was hiding? Did he wanted to tell him something?

.....

Naruto waited for an answer looking at the tailed beasts and his niichan.

Finally Kurama broke the ice and answered his query.

We're leaving you Naruto, going to our own timeline.

Young Naruto froze!

Now,

"Oi oi, stop joking."

Looking at their serious expression, it was true. This was no joke. They were actually leaving him. Now that made him feel...... Hollow. Niichan and other tailed beast presence became a constant source of family and inspiration in Naruto's life. He wouldn't admit it but, he was scared to fight the organization alone. He felt weak and unsure of himself.

And not only because of organization but they all became family to him. Family of Uzumaki Naruto. Naruto knew that niichan had to leave one day. It was true after all. Niichan was not from this timeline and he had to return someday. It's just that..... He didn't really expected it to be so soon. 6 months ago, he met him as a crystal and now..... He's leaving. It's like barely any time passed.

Flashback :

Naruto looked at the crystal more closely. It looked weird.

"But what is this? Where did it come from? And what am I supposed to do with it?"

" EAT IT !"

"What? Who said that?"

"Hurry up and eat it, Idiot."

"But who are you?"

"Will you stop questioning me and eat it quickly?"

"First tell me who are you?"

"STOP QUESTIONING ME AND EAT IT IDIOT."

"Sheesh! Sheesh! Alright. At least tell me your name."

"QUICKLY EAT IT, YOU STUPID IDIOT BEFORE ANBU ARRIVE HERE AND TAKE IT."

"Why would they do that? And how do you know about it?" Naruto raised an eyebrow.

"Listen! I promise that I'll explain it later, but for now EAT IT."

Flashback End

That was the first time he met him.... As a crystal no less. It was as if someone was pranking him. He was doubtful at that point. But that prank became the best part of his life. He met niichan and these friendly tailed beasts. They became an important part of him, something that he could never forget.

He started training him. Their first encounter..... It has a different feel to it now, now that he was leaving after all.

Flashback :

"What in the name of Holy hell is happening here?"

Everyone turned towards the voice. A young version of Naruto was standing, mouth agape with eyes as wide as saucers.
