Extra long chappy.

"Toneri killed Naruto"

What is this? Where am I?

"Mom!?"

This hate... this child has hate. Are these my memories...? No. It can't be.

"Is everything alright?!"

So much hate.

Naruto didn't know what transpired. He floated in an empty abyss as these memories seemed to play. He could vividly feel what this kid was feeling. But he couldn't see the face to the person he called mom.

Naruto floated around some more fleeing away from the image of these unknown memories. He took in the surroundings around himself and finally realized he was in his empty mindscape. The cage still empty with darkness.

Kurama, where are you?

"What the fu-" Naruto's eyes opened staring at a ceiling. He shut himself up knowing the consequences. He could hear a faint snore coming from the girl under the white cheap sheets. He refused to share the bed with Shion much to her protests of his "well-being". So he fell asleep in the not so nice chair in the corner of the room much to his discomfort.

Naruto stood up stretching the tight muscles with bones lightly snapping making the blond man sigh.

It was time to leave, it was still dark out. Morning was very soon to arrive. He silently stepped around the room ever so carefully. He grabbed his respectable bag and silently started counting the coin they had left. He just needed a bit to get by, the blond man decided to leave the rest to her, as a gift goodbye and good will. Once it was all set and done he grabbed his cloak and his pack and undid the locks with a soft click and stepped outside to find a flustered looking girl.

She stared at him for a while twiddling her fingers in a nervous like fashion while she squirmed.

"A-Ano...Oha-Ohayo...Mr...?"

"Menma, Ohayo" Naruto responded back walking past the flustered brunette. He didn't have time for this.

"A-Ano...I-I"

"Sorry but I've got to go" Naruto cut her off descending down the steps hearing her shuffle feet in frustration.

I really have to do something about my looks. Tch.

"You've arrived at NOBLES CAPE!"

Cheers and sighs of relief filled the deck of masses. Children finally stopped crying and mothers began packing. The long twelve-hour ride was finally done. The horns of the ship's arrival notified the entire dock as bells began tolling.

"Sarada wake up...pst!" Boruto wiggled his shoulder softly making the Uchiha wake up. Yes, she slept on his shoulder much to his distress, but he didn't mind too, it was the least he could do for her help.

"Huh? Boruto?" The onyx haired girl eyes slowly began to reveal its black orbs and noticed how dark the sky was. Her limbs felt tight and her body ached at the uncomfortable position she slept.

The ship finally released its anchor as the men outside in the docks began placing the wooden-railed bridges making the masses quickly step out.

"Come on we're here!" Boruto exclaimed lifting the girl by her hands "Oh! Here! Your glasses, I kept them safe while you slept" said Boruto all flustered, he almost forgot how she looked without glasses.

"O-Oh! Thank you Boruto that was so swe-"

"Don't mention it! Let's get the hell out of this boat, I'm sick of it" Boruto interrupted the flustered Uchiha, she couldn't believe she almost slipped up.
