Back To The Future

Chapter 15: TEACHER RESCUE TEAM

"Inojin, thank you thank youthankyouthankyou-"

"B-Boruto... p-please get up, nee? I-I... I just did what I h-had to..."

"But still! Thank you thank you!"

The gang watched the scene unfold with amusement. Some were snickering at Inojin's little dilemma (between pulling Boruto up or stopping the boy from banging his head on the floor).

Shikadai excused himself from the group as he heads towards the hill where he knows his father's teen self is going to be (grabbing two brushes, a bottle of ink, and a stack of paper along the way). "These past events are such a drag..." he sighed.

Arriving at the hill, Shikadai's thoughts were: 'I am never going to walk a long way like that again...'

"Ah, did you bring it?" All Shikadai did was nod.

"Oyaji, you did manage to collect data, right?" Shikadai teasingly raised a brow, and Shikamaru answered with a smirk (Shikadai was tempted to ask if his Mom had anything to do with it. He wish his Mom didn't influenced that), "Who do you think I am?"

They spread the papers to their view on the plain grassy hill under the shade of the tree. Shikamaru opened the bottle and dipped his brush. "You should've brought pencils or pens instead..."

"It's a drag... and it's not my fault that the room was a mess."

The duo looked at each other then back to their work, "Mendou-"

"You two aren't planning on saying how troublesome this work is, are you?"

Both father and son paled upon the entrance of the future Matriach of the Nara Clan. 'It really is troublesome!'

Temari's expression darkens (is than a tick mark?), "You two... you just said that it's troublesome, didn't you?" The tone of her voice remind Shikadai of his mother in the future and was struck with dé jà vu.  'Ah... no wonder. It's just like the time when Oyaji and I got in trouble...

"Hey, Metal-kun?" Tenten called as she leaned on the cylinder-shaped wood while the said boy was doing a one hand stand on the wood. [I finally used his real name. HAPPY? - Just kidding. I'm not angry. Just got annoyed, irritated, and got a bit... well... upset? But I don't blame you guys, really. I should've finalised the information before publishing this story.]

"Hai, kaa-san?"
"This got me wondering, but are you able to use a huge amount of chakra?

Metal flipped over so that his feet were the ones on the wood. "No, I can just use a little bit. You see... um... there's one more thing I wasn't able... to tell you..."

"Huh? What is it, Metal-kun?"
"Um... actually... in the future... you're my stepmom."

"This way!"

Three figures sped off as a blur while jumping... and hopping... from branch to branch, tree to tree. (WHEEE~)

They finally stopped at the destination their tracker, one Hanabi Hyūga, lead them to. "This is it. This is the end of the trace in Mitsuki-kun's chakra."

Konohamaru open the basement trap-like door before turning to the other two, "I'll go first, he's my student."

"It seems you're forgetting one thing, Konohamaru. What is? He was also my student."

"Of course."

"And he's also my nephew's moonlight." Hanabi giggled. Both men stared at her, confused. They both looked at each other before they shrugged. 'Women.'

The trio jumped in one by one.

"Let's hope the snake of this time isn't here." - Konohamaru

"Don't jinx us, Konohamaru." - Hanabi

"He isn't... just the snake of our time..." - Shino

Both young adults looked at Shino with their eyebrows raised, "How would you know, Shino-san?" They chorused.

Shino pointed forward. They followed his finger's direction and almost jumped out of their skin if fright and heart pounding (not the romantic kind of doki doki) surprised.

"OROCHIMARU?!"

I know Hanabi isn't a sensei as far as I know since I still haven't watched the episodes from 11 onwards, but for me, she can be a teacher figure to Boruto on the Hyūga Family Arts and as well as manage the Family alongside her father in her sister's absence. I don't know if Hinata is the Head, but in this fanfic, she is. Hanabi acts as a Sub Head on some occasions and even lead a Troop of Hyūgas.
