I was training with Naruto, Sakura and Kakashi on the third training ground when I felt something weird. I stopped. Something had changed but I couldn't put my finger on it. The trio stopped when I stopped. I must have looked worried or something because Naruto approached me and started to shake me out of my reverie. That earned him a slap on the backside of his head from the pinkette. I told her to stop that and that he had every right to bring me out of my mind. I sighed. I couldn't shake that strange feeling.

"Something's bothering you." Kakashi stated. "Care to share, Mina?"

I looked hard at my current teammates. I once again thought about my arrival here to the Narutoverse and thought of the events that could have possibly been altered. That was when it all hit me. Events that would have happened prior to my arrival were happening now. I could see it now. The two members of the Akatsuki were approaching the village in order to capture Garra of the Sand. Should I tell them of this? Should I tell them of what I know and of the events that were about to occur? I know I can easily prevent such a dangerous occurrence from taking place, but was it the right thing to do? The future of Narutoverse was already changed because of my presence. Did I want to preserve whatever future was to come? Or should I just say 'screw it' and save the present Kazekage from becoming the victim of the Akatsuki? That was the question.

"I think you should share what's bothering you." Sakura said. "It'll make you feel better."

Naruto simply stared at me with worried blue eyes and nodded in agreement. I sighed before I reluctantly decided to tell them the truth about me. If I truly desired to help someone then it had to be done. I would worry about the consequences later.

"Before I begin, I should really tell you about myself and where I really came from."

I told the trio of my true origins and that my life WAS as horrible as I had described earlier to Naruto and Jiraiya. They were rather transfixed with my story. When I came to the part about my being from a different timeline, I wasn't surprised at their skepticism. It was hard to believe that I came from a place where I was able to view their world from another dimension. So I decided to take the plunge and told them about how the Akatsuki was going to attack the Sand Village and take Garra's inner demon. Kakashi jumped at the fact that I knew of classified information but I assured him that said event was taking place even as we spoke.

"The two Akatsuki members are on their way now." I said. "They are going to attack with a brainwashed member of the Sand Village."

Kakashi nodded, convinced that I told the truth, and sent for a messenger.

I was later summoned to the Hokage's office, where the Hokage made me repeat my story. I had no doubt that I wanted to help the Kazekage. Not only will my actions spare his life but it will also spare the life of Chiyo, the puppetmaster and Sasori's grandmother. I repeated the events that were to come. I told her how two members of the Akatsuki were currently on their way to the Sand Village. I told the Hokage that the initial stage of the invasion would be an inside job. One of the Akatsuki members, I said, had control over one of the soldiers of the Sand.

"His name's Yura."

Jiraiya, who arrived belatedly, entered the office with a serious look on his face as I continued my story. I finally ended my story with the warning if nothing was done soon, then the Kazekage would be captured and that the one-tailed demon would be extracted from him. Jiraiya frowned, somehow knowing that there was more to come, but said nothing. I just said that there was more to come if Garra was allowed to die and ended it right there. Lady Tsunade pressed me to continue my story, but her fellow Sannin put a stop to it.

"If what she says is true," he said. "Then she can't really say anymore without dramatically altering history as we know it."

"I guess you're right." Tsunade agreed tiredly. "However, I will put an alert out immediately to the Kazekage."

I produced a small book and gave it to the Hokage to look at. I noticed that the cover was blank. It was supposed to be a copy of the Shippuden series in my world but since history was changing, then I suspected things back in my world would be changing as well. History was changing and it wasn't affecting just this universe.
