Last Time on TSOTSH...

"What the hell are you?" Mr. 5 muttered as he took a step back.

Naruto's grin widened. "Just a kid who's about to kick your ass!" he declared. With a powerful leap, he launched himself into the air. As he soared upward, he concentrated, channeling wind chakra deep into his lungs.

"ROOOOAAAR!" he unleashed, a powerful gust erupting from his mouth as he descended toward Mr. 5. The sheer force of the wind created a whirlwind around him.

Mr. 5's eyes widened in alarm as he realized the gravity of the situation. "Exploding..." he began, panic creeping into his voice as he saw Naruto's attack closing in. "Star!" he shouted, his body glowing .

"Oh shi—" Naruto yelped, realizing too late the danger he was in. Then everything went black.

Everything was a swirling blur. Naruto squinted, struggling to make sense of his surroundings. Shadows danced around him and he felt disoriented. "Hello?" he called out but no one answered.

"Hello, my son..." The voice was soft and melodic.

Tears welled in Naruto's eyes. "M-Mom?" he stammered.

"Hello, my little Naruto..." Kushina greeted.

"Why can't I see you?" Naruto pleaded. "Where am I?" He spun in place, searching for a figure, a hint of her presence among the swirling shadows.

"It's not our time to meet yet..." Kushina's tone was gentle, yet firm, like a whisper carried on the wind.

"What do you mean?" he asked. "I just want to meet you!" Frustration bubbled within him "Why can't you just come to me?"

Kushina let out a soft chuckle. "Oh, my baby... I wish it were that simple. But right now, you need to keep yourself alive."

"Keep myself alive?" Naruto echoed. "What do you mean? I'm trying!"

"You have so much to learn, my little maelstrom..." Kushina continued. "There are so many things about your past and mine that you must learn and I hope each lesson will bring you closer to what you are searching for."

"I don't get it!" Naruto exclaimed. "I just want to be with you! Is that so wrong?"

"In time, my little Naruto," Kushina said. "In time, you will find your way. But first, you must face the storms ahead of you. You are stronger than you know, and I will always be with you, guiding you from afar." As she spoke slowly drifting away from him.
