The night before

Naruto stood at the Hokage's monument overlooking the whole village. The skies were clear and the village was full of life. Then he felt a familiar chakra signature, and turned around

"Why are you here, dad?"

He saw Boruto standing, blonde hair messy like he ran all the way here, clothes tattered like he was just in a major fight, his jougan was activated

"Because I'm here, what else?" Naruto said half-grinning, half-worried

"You can't be here" said Boruto with a look of guilt in his face

"And why not?" Naruto asked

"Because the world knows you're dead" Boruto whispered before dissapearing

Naruto then, with wide eyes, turned around and looked the village and saw the skies in a tinge of red and the whole village gone. He looked down and saw himself standing at the Hokage's monument... or what was left of it

Then he felt a sharp pain as he looked behind him. A man was standing, stabbing him with a kunai exactly at his heart. He fell down to the ground.

"W...Why?" Naruto said with each breath struggling

"To... let the world know, that you shouldn't take anything that's not theirs at the first place" the man said before ending with a maniacal grin, plunging the kunai at his face

Couple of hours later, just outside of Konoha

Naruto relived and relived the dream that he had before he woken up and was very disturbed.

It was too real. Too familiar, to be just a dream and that was what disturbed Naruto to his core. Every part of Naruto screamed in defiance on what he saw. They wanted to help, yet couldn't. Was this a future in this new past?

Then he relived the scene with Boruto. The face, the clothes, the mere appearance of Boruto was so nostalgic and yet warned him. Would this be Boruto in his time? As a father and a leader, nothing would ever guilt him as a child growing into a war torn life.

Then he shook his head, ought to forget on what was in his head and tried to concentrate on what was happening now. He saw Tazuna and his other team mates and thought of their plan. It would be risky, funny, effective and would certainly manage to better the future

'Just one step at a time' Naruto thought as he grinned as he saw a familiar puddle

"Jonin-san, I would have thought your team would be much... nosier, considering their age"

Tazuna looked at the the Genin protecting him. They were all kids, but they all carried themselves adults, especially the blonde one called Naruto. It unnerved Tazuna to the second degree

"Don't worry Tazuna-san, they are ninjas. They are taking the mission seriously, which you should be grateful for" Kakashi said with an eye smile and a calculating tone. Tazuna blinked, then shooked his head. He'll probably won't understand ninjas anytime soon

They were in a diamond formation, Naruto in the back, as he was the team's powerhouse, and second team leader. Sasuke in the front to spot and deal with threats, finally, Kakashi and Sakura in the sides, to protect the client. Though, it was probably overkill since four kage level shinobis were protecting Tazuna. Ho, if anyone would dare fight them now.

As on cue, two shinobi rose up from the two puddles and procedded to hit Kakashi in the back with their chains proceeding to hit Kakashi and tore him to pieces
