"It's... incredible, the things that humans can do when you push them hard enough. What would normally be considered impossible could be made possible with willpower alone."

"...And is that what led you here? Willpower?"

She laughed, hysteria and helplessness and defeat curling at the edges of the sound, grating deep into her soul and his alike, "No. Willpower was something that we fought with for a long, long time... But after everything, it never really worked."

Her eyes locked with his.

"Desperation. Desperation, in the end, proved itself to be a truly powerful thing."

---

In which Naruto Uzumaki is thrown far into the past, bearing the weight of the shinobi world and her own failure on her shoulders.

Heavy is her burden. 

But this time, she will succeed.

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

It had been a year since his death. Rin was almost back to her regular self, still a little shaken up but fine all the same. Minato wasn't fine at all but he forced it down, he was the Hokage now! He needed to stay strong, or at least pretend he was. Kushina still cried, she knew she always would. He was like a son to her, No she had not birthed him, but she might as well have. He felt like flesh and blood to her. She wanted him to be the big brother of her future first born. But it was not to be, and for that she was sad. Kakashi however, well... he was another story entirely. ~~~~ A tall shinobi burst into the room panting and gasping. Minato and Kushina jumped out of their seats, now standing. "What is it Ibiki?" Minato asked, feeling panic spread through his nerves. "Hokage-sama you- you have to come see this! Right away!" He gasped. "What is it?" Kushina stepped forth. "I fear if I tell you, you won't believe me!" The couple exchanged a concerned glance but followed Ibiki with hast nonetheless. They traveled to the north side of the village, to the hospital for sick or injured criminals. The tall shinobi dragged them along quickly through the building and down several sets of stairs. Finally, once it seemed like they had reached the deepest part of the fissility, they spotted a doctor pacing the floor rapidly. Once she spotted them she bellowed forward. "Thank kami, you finally here!" ~~~~ "What the hell am I looking at?... Anzen... who am I looking at?" He asked, his voice a little more steady this time. She was on the verge of tears now two. To see her friends that she had always know as strong people fall apart within moments was... horrifying. Ibiki stood in the corner, forcing down any reaction at all. "It- I-" Anzen could not control her voice enough to speak. "I think you know who your looking at." Ibiki spoke for her.
