Time travel fic. The war was over, Sasuke was still an idiot, but they were mostly getting over that. Everyone else was just trying to get back to some semblance of normalcy in the era after facing the Juubi and losing so much. Hatake Kakashi never wanted to be Hokage but that's what he became. With that comes enemies. During an attack on the village which is struggling to pull itself back together, Naruto jumps in front of a jutsu that would tear his former Sensei's soul from his body which begins to tear Kurama away instead. In a desperate bid to save both his and the kit's life Kurama does something almost as unpredictable as his host, he tries to send them back in time a day. This would have worked just fine, except Kurama might have...overshot things a bit. Oh, wow is that a chibi Naruto running around?

Jiraiya begins hearing rumors of a man called the "Lost Uzumaki" that has made a seismic debut on the shinobi world stage. The only thing is S-class nin don't just pop out of nowhere...usually. Jiraiya is sent to track down the nin and determine his loyalties. His new life depends on a good impression. The good thing is that Uzumaki Naruto's true superpower is his ability to talk even the most unwilling into submission.

*This fic's main pairing is between a Future!Naruto and Kakashi. The chibi pairings are sasunaru and Lee/Sakura. This is a cross-posted fic, the Wattpad version will be edited and slowly updated.

AND BACK AGAIN [ NARUTO ] by narutothings_
41 parts Complete
Naruto really thought they could do it. That he could do it. But when the chance was staring him in the eyes, reflecting off of the rasengan in his right hand and the pulsing in his chest, Naruto failed. Madara sent him back. Back to a time when he had everything once again. And he couldn't stay. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Jiraiya shrugged, as if he wasn't discussing his own demise and just some mildly unpleasant weather. "I've got books to write, places to visit, little brats to train. The world needs me as long as it can have me." He spread his hands reasonably, as if to illustrate the surety of his point. "Spill it, come on. How'd I get myself killed?" Naruto sputtered, sitting a little straighter. "That's--I can't just tell you!" He stopped. ". . .Can I?" "I don't see why not." Jiraiya smiled softly, the nonchalance gone from his expression and replaced with a hint of understanding that Naruto drank up. "You're thinking a bit too hard into this, gaki. We don't have to follow Fate's path like a strict rule book. We're shinobi--things like this," he gestured to Naruto, "are bound to happen. And if you happen to have important knowledge and if you happen to mention it here and there, well. No one will be the wiser. You want to save us, Naruto? Save us." ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ [ earlier chapters are lacking ] [ cover art creds to artist ] [ genfic--no ships, but if any, canon implied ] #1 in narutotimetravel 1 / 28 / 21 #1 in uzumakinaruto 8/9/21 #3 in uchihasasuke 12/22/20 #7 in naruto 12/27/20 #4 in timetravel 4/24/21

Sasusaku: The Road Back To You  by sasusaku4lifeeee
10 parts Ongoing Mature
**HIGHEST RANKING: #2 IN SASUKEXSAKURA** this is loosely based off of a fanfic I read that I loved the idea of but I wanted to expand on, credits to @firooz. ◦•●◉✿◉●•◦ Sasuke Uchiha was gone. Naruto Uzumaki was gone. Sakura Haruno was alone, and Konahagure would never be the same. Tsunade was working nonstop as Hokage, and Kakashi was being sent out on one dangerous mission after another. Sakura was kept busy at the hospital, being the best medic- save her mentor and current Hokage- in the village. But at night, the loneliness crept in, and Sakura fell asleep staring at her team picture every night. One day, however, Orochimaru appears in the village for a strange request: he needs a medic. A good one. In fact, he needs the best one. He needs Sakura. Reluctantly, a deal is formed with Orochimaru's former teammate, Tsunade, to take Sakura Haruno away to his lair to help him heal his arms for the span of one year in exchange for a guarantee of her safety and the promise to help rid Konoha of the Akatsuki. Sakura readily agrees- if it means protecting her friend and her home, she would do anything. But when she comes face to face with her old teammate, who she never really stopped loving despite her efforts and denial, Sakura realizes that maybe home isn't a place, but whoever makes you feel loved most. *MULTIPLE POV* *TAKES PLACE IN THE BLANK PERIOD RIGHT BEFORE SHIPPUDEN* *MATURE CONTENT* *I DO NOT OWN NARUTO, OR ANYTHING AFFILIATED WITH NARUTO. I ONLY OWN THE PLOT AND A FEW OC'S. *
Rock Bottom - A Team 7 Story [Completed] by _izoy_
37 parts Complete
"You know, the thing about failure is that it only makes me want to try harder." . . Minato and Kushina survived the Kyuubi attack, the Uchiha Massacre never happened, Orochimaru never became a missing nin. What could go wrong? A lot of things actually, Uzumaki-Namikaze Naruto is shunned by the village, his father ignores him, and his mother disappeared. Sasuke was always a failure to his clan, nothing he did would ever be good enough for them. Kakashi was endlessly reminded that he would never be as great as the White Fang was. And Sakura was abandoned by her parents, who left her in Konoha while they do god-knows-what. Nobody expected them to amount to anything, but that only gave them the incentive to prove everyone wrong. This is the story of Team 7, the team of failures and rejects with a dream to make it to the top. . . . HIGHEST RANK: #338 in Fanfiction (10/28/17), #3 in Naruto (8/11/18) Sequel: Ascending (be sure to check it out after!!) Romance isn't the main genre but the pairings will be SasuNaru and GaaSaku. If you don't like yaoi then don't read, simple. -Warning: Swearing and Amateur Writing. This is my first fanfic so read at your own risk! -I'm not gonna lie, some of the characters are going to be ooc because I played around with their backstories *I Don't Own Naruto *I don't Own the Cover Image Either (but I made the cover so.....?? ?) *I also don't own any of the photos in the medial * Please don't copy, and please dm me if you think that someone has
