Unbiased

Summary: "Don't interfere. Don't get attached. Remain unbiased." he knew those words by heart but he couldn't bear to watch those people who he called as comrades and friends die in front of his eyes. "You're only here to record our world's history. Nothing more, nothing less." He didn't know what to follow. "You're one of the potential heirs of our clan, Nao. Remember that." His heart or his clan. Self Insert OC. Minato's timeline.

Everything was in chaos

There was fire

There were numerous bodies around the area

Blood was plastered on the wall and on the ground

Gamabunta was on top of the Kyuubi, Jiraiya on top of the toad boss

"Gamabunta hold down the Kyuubi until Minato arrives!"

"That's something tough even for me, ya brat!" he steps on it harder, effectively stopping the ball of chakra the Kyuubi was emitting

"Hiruzen-sama!"

"Nao-kun!" he noticed that the young man, out of breath, was bloodied and bruised

"You need someone to heal your wound!"

Nao smiled at the old man's concern

"Everyone is injured, Hiruzen-sama. These are nothing compared to those who lost their lives in protecting Konoha"

Jiraiya went down from Gamabunta's head, landing where Nao and his sensei were

"Where is Minato-kun?" he asked but Nao just nodded his head sideways not knowing where his blond friend is

"Tch, Gamabunta can't hold on to that beast that long"

A flash of yellow and Minato was beside him

"Minato!"

"Sensei! I'll immediately transport the Kyuubi to another place but I have to concentrate for a minute or two"

"Ya hear that, Gamabunta?!"

"Yeah, yeah I'm on to it"

XXXXXXXII

After a flash of yellow and orange, the tailed beast was gone making everyone sigh in relief

"Jiraiya-sama" Nao winced

"I know it's not over yet, gaki" he hmmp-ed, crossing his arms on his chest

Nao made a small smile

"Minato would do something stupid, I bet"

"I know and we must go to him" Jiraiya was ready to run and go save his student lest he does something stupid. Especially since he just learned the Dead Demon Consuming Seal that the Uzumaki knew

"Ah, Jiraiya-sama…"

"What is it?"

A series of handseals

"Kuchiyose no Jutsu"

A poof

And two birds appeared, it was Gin and Kin

"Nao-sama"

"Gin, I want you to look for either Nohara Rin or Tsunade-sama…"

Jiraiya arched his brow

"…and tell them to follow you. You have sharpest eyes and I know you can find Kin easily. Tell them that someone might need medical treatment when you and the others arrive there. Kin and I will go ahead and help Minato with the Kyuubi…" the falcon left and Nao turned his head to his friend's sensei

"…Jiraiya-sensei I think you'll know where to find us"

This baffled Jiraiya with his sentence

"Oy gaki, what do you mean by that? Aren't we all going there together?"

A small smile

"Ahh, I'll be going ahead Jiraiya-sama"

"What?"

"I might not be really good with it but since we both designed it together…I can still use it somehow. Let's go Kin"

"Hai, Nao-sama"

"Wait those handsigns…don't tell me!"

A flash of orange and then Nao was gone while Jiraiya and Hiruzen gaped in surprise

XXXXXXXIII

"Go" Kin screeched going up high in the sky, circling the area where they were

Nao had arrived at the scene where the Kyuubi was wrapped around Kushina's chains. Kushina was explaining to Minato that, Nao had sealed the half of the Kyuubi's chakra inside of her

"You don't need to use the Dead Demon Consuming Seal for this, Minato" the couple stared at the their battered friend

"Nao! What are you doing here?" Nao had just smiled

"Didn't I promise you that I'd protect you…" he got his blank mask and placed it on his face, "…and by extension your child, Minato?" he tapped on Kushina's forehead, the kanji 'regenerate' appeared on it.

"I can't fully heal you but this is better than nothing. Tsunade-sama or Rin-chan will heal you once they arrive here" Kushina nodded her head in thanks, the chains at her back still encircling and pinning down the tailed beast

He could feel his chakra decrease at this

"Just use the Eight Signed Seal, it would be easier to seal it inside Naruto-kun if only half of the Kyuubi is unleashed"

Minato nodded and had summoned the ritual altar for the sealing

Nao stared at the Kyuubi, he could feel that he knew what had appeared in front of him. The numerous chakras of their comrades could be felt getting closer to where they were

The Kyuubi had seen this as the perfect opportunity to strike

'Heh'

"You'll learn to love this boy, Kurama" he whispered

"NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAO!"

XXXXXXXIV

Rin gasped

She was the one, who was asked to follow Nao's falcon instead of Tsunade. The Slug Princess had told her that the people in the hospital and the village needed her slugs to heal them and that she believes that Rin could do it

Rin had smiled at this, happiness filling her heart from the world's best medic's words but she couldn't help but feel discouraged at this with the scene in front of her

"NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAO!"

Everyone had heard the scream coming out from Minato and Kushina

And when they arrived, they were already too late

"Nao-sensei! Nao-sensei!" she pounded on the golden barrier that Kushina had made

Everyone was frozen, looking at the gruesome scene in front of them

The Kyuubi's nail impaled the orange haired man's body. Minato and Kushina just a few meters away from also being impaled by those sharp claws but Nao had stopped it. Naruto was crying, drips of Nao's blood from the Kyuubi's nail spotted his chest. They couldn't hear the words being uttered inside the barrier

With a poof, the Kyuubi was gone and Nao coughed up blood

The barrier was still up which frustrated Rin

"Kushina-san! Kushina-san!" she began to pound the glowing barrier when red began to slowly pool around Nao's body

The people saw the trio exchanging some words that they couldn't decipher

Rin refused to break down without trying

"Please open up the barrier, Kushina-san!" she shouted desperately, "I have to heal, Nao-sensei! Please, Kushina-san! Or else Nao-sensei will die!"

And as if Kushina heard the brown haired medic's words, the barrier suddenly vanished

Rin was the first to get to them

She had to save him. She had to because she knew that he was the one who saved her at that time

Green chakra surrounded her palm

She choked back her tears

"A-ah…you shouldn't wa-waste your chakra Rin-chan" the bloodied smile of the man who had taught her and her team broke her heart

"Don't talk sensei! Tsunade-sama…Tsunade-sama sent me because she believes in me and my abilities that I could heal people! And…and I know that I can heal you!"

"I think...Tsunade-sama is ri-right, Rin-chan. Bu-but you already kn-know it's too la-late for me"

"The-then why did…why did I became a medic for, if I can't heal my precious people?" she was almost shouting but she didn't care

Nao was shocked that Rin had thought of him as one of her precious people, his heart warmed at this

"You ju-just answered it, Rin-chan. To he-heal your precious people…" he strained his eyes, focusing his attention to the brown haired girl. He noticed the hairpin that he had given her, 'It really is pretty on her' he thought

"…so don't gi-give up, okay Rin-chan? Just think of my de-death as a motivation in becoming a better me-medic"

"But" a hiccup "B-but who would br-braid my hair or, or make so-someone li-listen to my pro-problems?" Rin didn't care if she wasn't being professional and losing her cool

"Ahh, yo-you still have Ob-Obito-kun and Ka-Kakashi-kun, don't you? Wo-won't you take care of th-them for m-me and Minato's fa-family?"

She couldn't speak and just bit her lips as she nodded vigorously

The Heather flower hair pin slowly fell and mixed with his blood

XXXXXXXV

"NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAO!"

"How do you know my name, pitiful human" angry red eyes stared at the human that stopped his assault on the newly born baby. His sharp nail went through the body of the human that had called his given name.

'Fool' Kurama thought, looking at the heavily injured orange haired human

The hovering bodies of Minato and Kushina stared at their injured friend as they protected their child

"Now, Minato" the blank mask turned to them slowly

"YOU HAVENT ANSWERED ME, YOU FOOLISH HUM-!"

The Kyuubi made one final roar before it was sealed

His mask fell down as it broke down into a million pieces before he slowly fell backwards

Thud

"Nao, why?!" Minato cradled his form as Kushina got Naruto

"Heh, my body moved on its own" he stared at the crying face of Minato and Kushina,

"Don't say stupid things like that, 'tebanne!"

"I wanted to protect Naruto-kun"

"But we could hav-"

"And let Naruto-kun be parentless?"

They both froze at this

"I dreamt…I dreamt something long ago. That I read a book…a book that was about a boy. A boy who was parentless and was ostracized by everyone because they thought he was different…a monster. He didn't know why they treated him differently when he didn't do anything wrong. He was lonely. He was unloved. He wondered everyday if his parents left him because he was a monster…it took probably years before people forgave and treated him normally. He had to go through hardship for everyone to acknowledge him just because he was alone. But even if he was finally loved by everyone the fact that he had no parents still broke his heart and he yearned for them everyday"

Minato's face was grim, knowing what Nao was saying but Kushina was confused

"What are you talking about, 'ttebane?" her voice was shaking, afraid what he was sprouting

"Do you want Naruto-kun to experience that?" they flinched again

"To be lonely…unloved…parentless…and be called a monster that he has no knowledge of or no control of…" he made a small smile when they looked at their child's sleeping face, "…it was either the both of you or me. And I know you guys treasure me but...but there isn't anyone else who would treasure and protect Naruto-kun more other than yourselves"

They cried at this

"Ne, Naruto"

Both husband and wife flinched at this, looking at the flickering vibrant yellow and cobalt blue eyes of their friend. It was as if he was struggling with the Shinigami to stay alive even if it's just a little bit longer

'It hurts' they both thought at the same time

Nao stared at the sleeping baby on Kushina's arms

He made a small smile

"It's such a pity that I don't get to see you grow up…as well as the other children that my friends have," he chuckled "I might would have been stuck in babysitting you guys if I was still around…but I do not regret that I protected you with my life, you know?"

'Ahh, it's getting harder to breath'

"You know what…you have good parents. Your father may be a genius but he could really be clumsy and stupid with some things. He's really strong and he'll train you in becoming a good shinobi…maybe you'll be Hokage like him in the future? And even though he might be busy with his works, he's a good man and will be a good father to you. He loves you will all his heart. Minato will guide you through every step of your way, every day. And cherish you like how he cherishes your mother. And though he might not have any clue in dating girls, I know you can always ask your mother and she will hopefully guide you…" he paused, struggling to breath

"…your mother meanwhile is a different story" he chuckled "She's fiery just like her pretty long red hair and aggressive as well as irrational on most of the time, so don't make her mad okay? But she's a good woman who has a lot of patience coz she married you father. Kushina is also a good cook. You'll be very healthy, so don't forget to eat vegetables, okay? She's a prankster with a very big heart, a wonderful smile and compassionate to others which I know you will inherit. Kushina might be not be the most feminine woman and might not say the correct things but she means well…"

"I know you'll be a good ninja and a good son and friend. You don't have to be super smart like Minato but I hope you'll inherit the will and dreams of both Minato and Kushina to you…Ahh, I also have another godson you know? He's name is Uchiha Sasuke and he's just a few months older than you. I hope you'll be the best of friends since Kushina and Mikoto are best friends as well as Mikoto and I…haha although that's a different story to tell. But I hope you'll make lots of friends that you will trust with your life. I wish I could have taught and some of the other children some of my skills but Minato would be there since we're the best of friends…"

Silence

"Ne Naruto, be good to your parents alright? And love them more as much as I did to them…"

The tears just wouldn't stop

XXXXXXXVI

The falcon shivered, which didn't go unnoticed by the Uchiha children

"What's wrong, Midoriko-san?" Itachi asked, looking at the falcon's grim face

"Nao-sama…" a whisper

Shisui's eyes widen at this

"Wh-what's wrong with, Nao-sensei?" he swallowed his saliva, afraid of the answer the falcon will tell them

"Sit beside each other" Midoriko ordered, looking at Shisui while her wing pointed at Itachi and Sasuke

Shisui was confused but obliged

The young boy sat down beside Itachi as Midoriko flew towards them, landing in between them at the porch, "Oy Midoriko, what's wro-" he froze

They both eyed the shivering form of the falcon; both the tip of its wings were touching their forehead. It was strangely familiar, they had thought

Midoriko whispered something to them, their eyes were getting watery with what the falcon had just said. Itachi clutched Sasuke tighter and Shisui wrapped his arms around the crying falcon to this chest

"I'm sorry"

XXXXXXXVII

"I-in my apartment the-there is a scroll. Ple-please get that and sho-show it to no-nobody else ex-except yourself and to the pe-people you trust"

Minato nodded at this

"I can't pro-protect everyone now but I don't re-regret that I chose to pro-protect you to de-death"

"I'll leave yo-you in protecting everyone, al-alright?"

"I'll do everything in my power to protect our precious people, Nao"

"Arigato, Minato"

XXXXXXXVIII

"Nao-sama! Nao-sama!" both of his falcon cried, opposite of Rin's form

"Ah…Ki-Kin. Gi-Gin" he shakily lifted his hand to pet each of their heads

"It…seems li-like we have to pa-part sooner than I ex-expected" both falcons didn't say a word as they sobbed

Nao didn't know that his summons could cry or would cry for him

"You are the greatest summoner that we ever had, Nao-sama!" Kin said

"We are honored to have served you and we will never forget you!" Gin added

The orange haired smiled at this

"Ahh…you gu-guys are also the be-best"

"I'm so-sorry but my cha-chakra cannot keep you tw-two and Midoriko he-here any longer…"

"We do not care! We are happy…as well as sad that we get to see Nao-sama one last time!"

"Wo-would you take care of your next su-summoner for me after I die?"

"As long as Nao-sama personally picked that person, we will protect and assist him or her with our very best" they were rubbing their eyes with their wings

"Then please take care of Shi-Shisui-kun, okay? Mi-Midoriko might know of h-him. A-and tell Nij-Nijiimura-sama that it has be-been an honor to se-serve and be of ser-service to the Falcons. One of my fri-friends will give hi-him the scro-scroll when he is re-ready for you guys"

"H-hai!"

"Go-good bye then…Kin. Gin." they rubbed their heads with affection on each side of Nao's cheeks

They then disappeared with a poof of clouds

XXXXXXXVIX

'Hurry' she told herself, 'I have to get there fast!'

The Matriarch of the Uchiha clan leaped faster. Mikoto had felt dread when she had seen the brown haired medic student of Minato follow a falcon from a distance

She knew she had to go and help with the village

She knew she had to see if her clan was doing okay

She also knew that she had to see if Itachi and Sasuke and Fugaku weren't harmed

Mikoto knew that and yet…she followed that familiar summon that she has often seen with its master

Brown and green were all she could see as she continued her journey. Chakras popped one by one when they came close to her range. A clearing was suddenly up ahead of her

Mikoto landed a few feet away from where the Sandaime and other people were

It seems like they were gathering around someone. Sniffles and sobs could be heard and the feeling she felt turned worse

A chakra flickering could be felt among the steady ones

She clutched her aching heart at this

Her body moved on its own, slowly moving forward before jogging to the scene

It was Jiraiya, who noticed her presence

"Mikoto" he whispered looking at her with sadness, he shook his head sideways that it made her gasp

The white haired sannin stepped aside, showing the dying Nao to her

She chocked back a sob

"Nao!"

Everyone's eyes followed her movement, looking at her form kneeling opposite of Rin's crying ones. The brown haired medic was still trying to heal him

"A-ah, Miko" he strained a smile

She swallowed hard

'When was the last time he called me by that name?'

"H-how…how could you be in su-such a predicament, baka?!" she shouted as if calling him that would help him

Her eyes turned glassy as Nao continued to smile at her

Why was he smiling?

What was he so happy about with?

Isn't he afraid that he's not going to see them anymore?!

Doesn't he see or feel that he's dying?!

Doesn't he know people will mourn for him and miss him…

Minato

Kushina

Kakashi

Rin

Obito

Shisui

Itachi

'Me?'

"A-ah…out of all th-the people to see m-me in this state it had to be you, Mi-Mikoto" he chuckled at this, "A-and it was you who I wa-wanted to be the last to see me like this…or may-maybe even never"

Mikoto clenched her teeth tighter

"But…I thi-think that it's alright that I ge-get to see you one la-last time, ne Miko?"

They both talked, Mikoto didn't know when she started crying. Everyone listened, their hearts breaking as Nao's voice turned quieter and quieter while his chakra was barely flickering like a small candle, only Rin's iryo-nin jutsu barely keeping him alive to say his goodbyes.

Nao slowly stretched his bloodied hand towards her. Whipping her face, his blood smudged her porcelain face

"Do-don't cry" he whispered, his energy leaving. Eye lids drooping slowly. The light on his eyes barely even there.

"Crying doesn't suit you, Mikoto" an image of an older Sasuke, crying at the death of his older brother. He had killed him yet he cried for what his brother had gone through because Itachi only wanted to protect him

'How powerful and scary love can be to a person'

More crying and sobs could be heard around him

"C-can you grant me my fi-final request, Mikoto?" he asked, the woman he has loved for so many years nodded in reply

Minato and Kushina's hearts ached at their tragic love story

"A-anything" she whispered, cradling his hand that was plastered to her cheek

His hand was so big and was so warm. They were the ones that had helped her and protected her. The ones who would bake her those macaroons and dangos and other sweet pastries that she and everyone he gave loved so much. The ones that poked foreheads because he loved seeing those people scrunch their face in distaste. The ones that held her cheek oh so tenderly…

She didn't want to let go

'Just this once' he pulled Mikoto's face forward

"L-let me be selfish" he slightly raised his head slowly

'I'm sorry Fugaku' he smiled at the thought

Mikoto's eyes widening at this, heart beating frantically

'All this time, you baka' she clutched his hand tighter

Their lips met softly

Red smudged on white

Foreheads touching

A whisper

Dead eyes staring

A smile

He fell

And then she cried

"NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAO!"

"I'll love you forever, Mikoto"

XXXXXXXX

The ground shook

Multiple wooden boxes appearing

Minato and the rest hearts stopped momentarily, the particular name of the person etched on one of it made them pale

It fell down and their hearts began to beat faster than normal

'No way'

Tears threaten to fall down as the familiar orange hair that they have not seen in such a long time emerge from the said wooden box

"Ah, minna"

"N…Nao?"

He smiled

"I guess even after I gave you that scroll, the Fourth Shinobi War still happened ne Minato?"

Minato, Kushina and every Konoha nin that knew of him gaped at his moving corpse

Vibrant yellow and blue eyes stared at them calmly

A small smile appeared on face

Outreached hands slowly rising towards them

"Saa, shall I help you win this war then, Minato?"

END

Author's Note: THAT'S A WRAP! Thank you for those who stayed with me till the end. I don't know if I'll be making some alternative scenarios of this story but I was able to make some Post-Fourth Shinobi War snippets however it lacks coz I haven't really established a good small chapters about it but here are some of the things I've made:

The Fourth Shinobi War has ended as everyone defeated Madara and Kaguya

"With the remaining chakra that I have…I will give you more time to stay here" the Sage of Six Paths looked at Nao, his precious people chatting with him and having a mini reunion

Nao paused for a while to looked at the floating body of the creator of ninjas, "Ahh, thank you Hagoromo-sama" he disappeared after giving a respectful bow

"Ano sa! Ano sa! Who's he Otou-san? Okaa-san?" the blonde kid with an orange jumpsuit asked his parents, his friends the same age as him curious as well at the stranger that their parents were happily taking to

"Oh, you must be Naruto-kun" a small smile

"Eh?! You know my name, dattebayo?"

'He's still the same as I remembered despite the changes I've made'

He chuckled at this

"Of course…I was the one that saved you that night you know. Maybe if I hadn't died maybe Minato would have made me your godfather"

The blonde openly gaped at the person in shock

"Naruto, this is Kiroku Nao. He's my best friend…and like he said, he was the one who saved you that night"

He chuckled again when he saw Naruto making comical expressions since he didn't know what to say

A realization came to the orange haired

"Ahh"

Naruto stopped and looked at his supposed to be godfather, wondering what the orange haired remembered

A tender smile made to his face as he looked at him

Naruto backed off a little, confused why Nao was giving him such a tender look like how he vaguely remembers his parents' giving him when he was a child

"Happy Birthday, Naruto-kun"

Naruto somehow began to understand why his parents and the people that knew him made such a painful face when they say their friend's corpse moving

Ooo

"You…" he snarled, fangs bared but not in a threatening way

"Ah it's nice to see you again, Kurama" Nao chuckled at this

Kurama tssk-ed at this, making Naruto look at the two

"You know of him, Kurama?" Naruto asked, the usual confused face of the young Uzumaki was ever so present on his face

"He was the human that called and knew of my real name before I was sealed into you" red eyes stared at the orange haired human smiling at him

"Ehhhh?!" Naruto couldn't believe it

Nao just chuckled at this

"Tell me human, how did you know my name when I have not even told anyone to it before" Kurama was interested as he leaned closer to him

Nao just smiled at this

"It's a secret, Kurama"

Kurama tssk-ed again but before he could retort Nao said something to him

"And didn't I tell you last time, that you'll learn to love this boy?" he chuckled once more

Naruto and Kushina couldn't help but boisterously laugh at Kurama's red face

Ooo

"NAO-SENSEI!"

Three bodies collided him making a dog pile

"Geez, you guys aren't kids anymore you know" he laughed when he got up after those three got off him

"It's nice to see you again…Kakashi-kun, Rin-chan and Obito-kun"

He smiled

Nao looked at each of the members of Team Minato, Kakashi and Obito were the same as the one when they grew up in the series and Rin…

"Sensei, we missed you" Rin was the one who said that

Rin was in her standard Jonin attire with the pink apron on her waist much like how Asuma tied his bandana around it. Large brown eyes were now narrower. Purple marks still on her cheeks. And her brown hair was pretty long compared to the last time he saw it and was braided

He caressed Rin's hair

"Ah you still have it" he tenderly eyed the white shimmering Heather pin on her hair, it was as if he just gave it to her the other day. He smiled at his inside joke

Kakashi sighed

Obito pouted

Rin blushed at this

A hand grasp his hand away from Rin's hair

It startled him

"Nao-sensei, please don't do that to my wife"

Ooo

"Nao-ji/Nao-sensei?"

"Ah, Itachi-kun, Shisui-kun…" he chuckled when he saw his not so little student and little godson trying not to cry

Sasuke looked back and forth at the orange haired adult and his brother and older cousin, wondering who his was and what their connection is for the two Uchihas to have an emotion like that

"Are you guys doing well?"

Shisui rubbed his eyes with his forearm, giving a grin when he removed it

"Oh course, Nao-sensei!"

"I've been doing fine as well, Nao-ji"

The three of them talked and Sasuke felt a bit left out of it

"Ahh, you must be Sasuke-kun" he perked his head up when he heard his name

He scrunched his face when he felt cool fingers touch his bare forehead

Sasuke wanted nothing but to glare at him but the nostalgic and solemn face of the person in front of him made him stop

He smiled tenderly

"You…look so much like Mikoto"

He backed off

"You know of Okaa-sama?"

He wanted to stop his heart beating so fast

'Just who is this guy?' Sasuke thought to himself

"Of course, she's my…" he paused, making Sasuke wonder at this "…my precious person after all"

The shout of his mother in a distance could be heard

And Sasuke really wondered what his mother and this person's connection was if he could make such a loving and solemn face at the same time

"NAO!"

"Ah, Miko"

Ooo

His form started to glow

"NAO!"

"Ahh, don't worry Miko I'll be with Fugaku on the other side"

Mikoto's form quivered

"Tell Fugaku that I'm sorry and that I forgive him! That I love him very much and that I am doing fine! Tell him that I'm taking care of the clan and Itachi, Sasuke and Shisui! It gets pretty lonely but the clan is there for me. The clan and the village is getting better and I'm making his dreams come true. I might not have been the best wife but I will be the best mother to our children"

"I'll tell him that, Miko"

He smiled but stopped when he saw tears falling down her face, hand clasped together like a prayer to her chest, obsidian eyes shimmering

'Ahh, even after all these years my feelings have not changed at all'

"Nao…" she bit her lips and bowed her head, her hair covering her tear stained face

He could see her trembling lips as she bit on it but made a tender smile after

"I…I am doing well, Nao. It still hurts to see and be reminded everyday that you've died before even getting to know more about Sasuke…you could have played and trained Itachi and Shisui more and Sasuke too if he went to the Academy. You could have gotten a child and got married if you didn't die that time…but I'm happy that you didn't because I know you still felt the same way towards me 16 years ago. I know that it is bad of me to feel this way towards you knowing that I already have my beautiful children and had a caring husband but…these feelings of mine will not change for you, Nao. I…I…I still love you and forever!"

Itachi, Shisui, Sasuke and his friends' eyes widen at the Uchiha Matriarchy's words

Nao smiled, hugging her as he started to glow more

"Take care of your mother for me will you?" he silently mouthed those words to his godchildren

His body burst to multiple strips of paper, words echoing when Mikoto hugged him back tight, not wanting to let go

"And I, too you as well, will forever love you Mikoto"

Ooo

Author's Note(continuation): welp that was just sad but those are the only things that I could write after the war happened. I'M ACTUALLY BREAKING MYSELF TWICE COZ NAO AND MIKOTO GOT SEPARATED TWICE AND ITS BREAKING MY HEART? I'M THE AUTHOR YET THIS IS HAPPENING TO ME? I hope I'm not the only one who is breaking twice as much in this update! And I'll leave it to your imagination who's hand stopped Nao and told him those words about Rin ehehehehe just kidding its actually...Anyway, hopefully I'll be able to make another SI OC Naruto story again in the future. I am probably thinking that it would be about Itachi or Kakashi's gen (maybe even Minato's gen again!) though so please look forward to it and pray that I will find the right inspiration to make a good story out of it

loup-13: hi there thank you for your warm review and I am happy that you think of this highly despite my poor writing skills and imagination. Thank you for support and for sticking to this!

Lizyeh2000: thank you for all your reviews!

A Very Sleepy Owl: I hope this chapter satisfied you hehe

SEE YOU NEXT TIME GUYS! 3
