3rd POV

When Madara was about two feet away from Naruto, Yuudai came out of nowhere and slammed his fist onto Madara's head. It shouldn't hurt too bad, I mean, he only enhanced it with his chakra.

"Hey, I told you, you need to stay at least 2 feet away! Just because Kurama made me take a nap doesn't mean you can break that rule!" He scolded the Uchiha, who growled and made a few hand signs.

"Fire style: Great Fireball Ju-!"

"Mada-nii, Onii-chan, you're scaring my new friend." Naruto jumped in, Gaara clinging onto his stick. He didn't feel too scared, but he didn't know those people at all, however, Naruto called one of them Onii-chan and Mada-nii. They must be somewhat friendly.

"A new friend? You finally made a new one!" Yuudai patted his back lightly, grinning.

"It hasn't been that long, right?" Naruto asked, recalling when he and Sasuke became friends.

"My dear sweet little brother, it's almost been 2 and a half years since you made a new friend, anyways, Itachi rented a room for us. We should probably get going soon, maybe your new friend can visit?" Yuudai said, glancing toward as the red head.

"Um, Gaara, is it ok if we can play again tomorrow?" Naruto's sweet voice asked him, and he nodded yes. Of course he wouldn't mind, tomorrow he has nothing to do, again.

"Yay! Let's go!" Naruto grabbed Gaara's hand and Yuudai's sleeve before using his jutsu to run back to the park, while Madara had to return in the seal.

-few minutes later-

"Bye Gaara! See you later!" Naruto yelled, waving his hand in the air.

"Bye, see you later." Gaara replied, before making his way back to his house by himself.

He hoped that Naruto could stick around in Suna for much longer, it wouldn't be as nearly as lonely with him around, but he knew he had to return to his own village soon. He knew very well that friends will come and go, sometimes they don't even come, and he was prepared for Naruto to leave him, just like he did. He was prepared, or so he thought, he never knew that some friends would stick around forever.

-the next day-

"Here!" Naruto pulled out a small piece of paper, sticking it out to Gaara.

"What's this?" Gaara asked, grabbing it and taking it out of Naruto's hand to examine it.

"It's a seal, I'm learning fuuinjutsu right now. If you channel some of your chakra in it, it'll send me a tingling sensation and I'll come as soon as possible! We're friends, right? That means we should see each other as often as possible!" Naruto smiled brightly, sticking the seal on Gaara's wrist, and they both watched as it slowly faded away until you could only see a small symbol.

Naruto pulled up his sleeve slightly so that his wrist showed as well, and Gaara noticed it had a symbol as well, and felt something bubble up in him.

"W-We could see each other often? You'll still be my friend?" Gaara stared in amazement as he touched his wrist, it felt as if the seal wasn't there in the first place!

"Of course, friends have each other's backs, right? Also, I have these." Naruto handed over to him another seal, this one looked slightly more complicated.

"What does this do?" Gaara asked, looking at the seal. He was curious, he never knew that seals could do these things, and would have never thought that a piece of paper and ink could be so powerful.

"This one can send you to the forest, I know it's far away, really, really far away, so I knew that you would never get the chance to go there by yourself. This seal can get you there in a similar way as I did, you just need enough chakra, so you might want to work on that." Naruto scratched the back of his head sheepishly, he couldn't find a way to not include any chakra in this seal, it was a must. He only hoped that Gaara would have enough chakra before he actually attempts this.

"Wow..." Gaara couldn't find any words to describe what he felt. Was it relief that Naruto wouldn't leave him behind? Or was it just amazement with all of these seals, maybe it's happiness from receiving those seals and making a friend.

"Thank you so much, Naruto."

Naruto smiled, and in response, said "it's no problem, today's my last day here, so I want you to know that you're not alone while I'm gone! Make friends with animals if you can't with another person, they're very kind."

That day, after Naruto left, Gaara took his advice. He saw a small red panda next to a scroll, and after soon finding out it was a summon, they became friends.

-With Naruto and Itachi a few hours later-

"Hey, Ita-Ita." Naruto called out to Itachi, they're in Konoha now, and they were heading towards the compound. But, something felt odd.

"Y-yeah?" He stuttered out, trying to walk as slow as possible. He knew what was happening, and they were too early. Naruto wanted to see Shisui and Sasuke, who were luckily not in the compound.

"Something's wrong, we have to go faster." Naruto was about to sprint until he felt a hand on his shoulder, and he was stopped.

"No! We can't, it's too-" Itachi was cut off by a bloodcurdling scream, and he suddenly paled.

"Ita-Ita, somebody needs help!" He managed to get out of Itachi's grip and ran towards the compound entrance, when blood suddenly became one of the only things he could see.

"B-blood?" He stopped a foot away from the entrance, luckily, and had to take a few seconds to process what's happening. Then, he saw his mom running away.

"Okaa-San!" He yelled, successfully getting her attention. Her face had a look of horror, and she screamed out, "Naruto! Get aw-!"

Naruto's eyes widened when he saw a person in a weasel mask come out of nowhere, and slash her back and throat. Her body fell to the ground, and the boy seemed to pay no attention to him, even after he screamed.

"Okaa-San! I'm coming!" He knew that if she wasn't dead, he could still heal her. Then she'd live! He felt a hand on his shoulder, and then he was yanked away from the entrance. He felt a hand try to cover his eyes, but it was swiped away by none other than Madara.

"Don't," he said in his icy cold voice, stopping Itachi from covering Naruto's eyes.

"He needs to see this if he wants to become an ANBU. He needs to witness the loss of a loved one, the sooner the better." Madara said, suddenly getting a flashback of Naruto's frail body lying in a bed during the Uchiha and Senju's disputes.

Yuudai came out to kill him, and didn't succeed as Kurama held him back.

"Listen, I'll allow rough play like breaking ribs and bruising limbs, but no killing." He scolded them, hitting both of their heads. He would be a great mother, that's for sure.

Meanwhile, Naruto was suddenly filled with lots of grief. He was training to protect his loved ones, and after a whole 2 years, he wasn't allowed to. Heck, he wasn't even allowed to step into the crime scene. How did he become so useless, and so powerless in a situation when he needed to be the complete opposite?

He tried again to sprint in when he saw his dad run out, but was held behind by Madara.

"No no no no no. Let me go! He needs help! LET ME GO!" He practically begged Madara, who's hold onto Naruto only became stronger.

"No, take all of those negative emotions in, feel all of the grief and take a look at the scene in front of you. You can't help them, you'll die and you will go against their wishes."

Madara said, hoping that what he was doing would be worth it. The last time, he died from being too kind and innocent, he fell to the most crappiest traps he had ever seen. Naruto's short lived childhood has been crappy as well, in both lives, but it still wasn't enough to fuel the negative emotions he needed for the future. In this life, he was born with a much stronger body, on that could heal almost anything, and now he could live a much longer life and become stronger. His future was very bright, and Madara was only making it a little brighter.

"You little...LET ME AT HIM!" Yuudai screamed out, his bright green eyes slowly turning to a crimson red, shocking everybody except Madara and Naruto, Madara already knowing and Naruto being unable to look away.

"Wait....does that mean..."Kurama mumbled out, holding Yuudai so that he doesn't spill the blood of a certain Uchiha.

Naruto's vision became blurry, and a few moments after that, he could see every detail. He could see all the dead bodies, and saw his father on the ground, a sword up against his neck. What's worse, he predicted what would happened, and right after, it happened. His father was now dead, lying on the ground, and he felt Madara's grip loosen until he was let go. With a thud, his body fell to the ground, and with his new crimson red eyes with two tomoes circling in them, Madara's job was done.

Kurama looked at Yuudai, then to Madara, and finally at Naruto who was still staring at the murder scene with tears in his eyes.

"We need a 'family' meeting, NOW!" Kurama yelled out.

A/N

Sorry, this may be confusing, but it would be explained in the next chapter during their 'family' meeting. Right now, I have nothing planned for the 50k special, so vote!

A new chapter

Or

A Q&A (seeing as I don't know what else to do.)
