Summary
Shikamaru has a secret. It’s deep and dark and the fifteen-year-old knows that people would never look at him the same way if they were to ever find out. It’s distracting him from his duties and pushing him away from his friends. When none other than Kakashi decides to stick his nose in, the copy ninja quickly comes to realize that this time he may have bitten off more than he can chew: Sticking his nose into Shikamaru’s troubles was impossible without revealing his own. Now, as the copy ninja slowly crumbles, painful memories surface. Yet in dealing with those memories, his darkest secrets come to light. Even so, it might not be the disaster he always thought it would be. Getting the help he’s been needing is a painful process, no doubt. But if it means that Kakashi can finally heal? It might just be worth it.
As secrets slowly unravel and people’s perceptions are changed, it’s not just Kakashi and Shikamaru who will benefit...

Summary
The Fourth Great Ninja War is over. The world lies in ruins. Only four remain — Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Shikamaru. Victory has come at the cost of everyone and everything they loved. As they wander the desolate battlefield, a revelation arrives: a chance to undo the devastation before it begins.
With the aid of the remaining Tailed Beasts, they are offered a perilous path through time — one that demands sacrifice, cunning, and the courage to rewrite history itself. To survive the journey, they must carry the essence of powerful beings within them, merging past and present, and forging new identities in a world that doesn’t yet exist.
As the survivors navigate a path between hope and despair, they must confront not only the ghosts of the war but the consequences of wielding power that could reshape the very foundations of the shinobi world.
The future may be broken… but in the ashes of tomorrow, they hold the key to a new beginning.

Summary
Iruka never expected to adopt anyone, especially not the Ninetails jinchuriki, but life is weird like that. Between shared ramen bowls and protecting each other from loneliness, Naruto becomes Iruka’s only family.
The village has opinions about that. Harsh whispers, not so subtle side-eyes, and cold glares follow the two wherever they go. Iruka doesn’t care though. Naruto deserves someone willing to look out for him.
A certain dog-masked ANBU has opinions too, but not for the same reason. His problem isn’t Naruto—it’s Iruka. Iruka’s pranks, his stubbornness, his reckless kindness, and the absolutely infuriating way he’s managed to wedge himself into the ANBU’s carefully controlled world.Or
Iruka steps up as Naruto’s guardian despite all the judgment he’s forced to face from the village. As he navigates the loneliness that comes with raising the Nine tails jinchuriki, he also has to deal with a persistent ANBU who keeps showing up in his life.
Maybe a family was never part of the plan, but when has Iruka ever planned for anything? Fate and one very annoyed ANBU seem to have other ideas.Bookmarked by Vicki21

Summary
A manic smile curled his lips.
Fool him once, fool him twice but there would be no third time.
“You’re on borrowed time, pet. You will not escape from me,” he purred silkily.
Their breath hitched at his words, confidence visibly shaken at the weight of the words from one of the strongest men alive.
“Y-You…” they struggled, pinned under the intensity of having the full brunt of an Uchiha’s indefatigable attention on them.
Madara hears it really is quite an experience.
His grin widens, showing off gleaming fangs.
"Me," the alpha goaded hotly.

Summary
The wires fell away from Sasuke.
“Think hard on whether you can or cannot hold true to what I’ve said,” Kakashi finished.
A hawk cried out above him. He had to leave soon.
Yet, he hesitated.
Sasuke still slumped against the tree, an avalanche of an expression on his face. He did not look like he’d received the words to reconsider his goal of revenge. There was no way Kakashi was going to leave him like this. He couldn’t, not when every cell in his body screamed at him that leaving Sasuke alone now would be one of the worst things he could ever do.
The hawk screeched again.
Who, then? In whose hands could he leave Sasuke? Gai? No, he was too preoccupied with Lee. Tenzo was off the table. The other jounin senseis?
His answer came strolling along around the corner, about to pass under the tree they were in.
Iruka Umino's face scrunched in confusion as he neared the tree, eyes following up the trunk.
