A/N: I have decided to return to writing, with a story I have wanted to do for a while. Please be nice.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, do we have to say these still?

Prologue Part One

Obito had known about Sakura's special healing jutsu, he had known that Tsunade was famous for the Strength of a Hundred seal, but she did not create it. The seal had deep history and connections with the origin of chakra, and ninjutsu; widely unknown by many…but not to Obito.

Honestly, he hated himself for not connecting the dots until death hung over himself, and literally the entire world.

In any other scenario, he would have welcomed death, after the life he had led the past years. It was deeply deserved, and not to mention his suffering from losing Rin would disappear. But now, the possibility of changing the ending was on the table ready to be examined.

How many times did he wish he wasn't crushed by the boulder? That he was there to protect Rin? And now, after coming face to face with Kakashi and his sensei's son, he imagined a much different life. A life void of the pain that he suffered, and ultimately the same pain was pushed onto others to suffer along with him. Minato and Kushina, the entire Uchiha family, Yahiko, Jiraiya; all deaths directly associated with the decisions he made and the agenda he pushed. He was no saint, and the death toll went on and on after the evil he had pursued the last couple of decades. But…it could change.

Obito would make it change.

When Sakura volunteered to search for Sasuke in the different dimension, offering her extra chakra from her Strength of a Hundred Seal, everything clicked for Obito. He agreed, they took the first opportunity they could. And his plan began to piece together suddenly, but there was no other choice.

"Sakura, I need you to trust me." Obito turned towards the young woman. She was strong for her age; she had looked death in the eye and been through enough pain. More pain than anyone normally could handle, or even should handle. A life that he had unknowingly pushed onto her, forcing her to grow up quickly and watch her comrades die around her. Not just her, but everyone she knew had suffered great loss, lived with great grief. Far from the life of peace and happiness Obito and others before him wished for the world.

Sakura looked at him confused, tilting her head slightly. "What do you need from me Obito? I am ready when you are." She was determined, good, this was not going to be easy. Actually, it was going to be hard, beyond fathomable. But he had no choice. He had to make it right. He had to try again.

"I don't have time to explain. But I need your Strength of a Hundred seal. I will make everything better, ensure this will never have happened." Obito stared into her eyes, relaying his own determination to the best of his ability, conveying how deeply he wanted to succeed with just his eyes for a moment.

"Obito….I don't understand," Sakura was desperately confused. "Never happened?" Sweat and grime covered her standard ninja attire that most of the Shinobi Alliance wore. There was also blood from people she could and could not save, dried tear stains from when she almost lost her best friend. The impact of war had hit everyone hard, and it showed on the young woman.

Obito shook his head desperately. He did not have much time. He could not explain, and it didn't matter much anyway. Sakura would not remember anything, or at least he didn't think she would. Thinking of the most efficient way to explain, while also not explain, Obito kept it short and sweet.

"Time travel."

Emerald eyes widened in disbelief, just as Obito formed a variety of seals she did not recognize and grasp her arm with one hand, and the other pressed into her Yin seal, forcing the chakra to pulsate and Sakura to cry out in pain.

"You won't remember, Sakura. But I will." Obito whispered as his eye began bleeding and he held onto Sakura as the air vibrated and the ground shook beneath them.

A bright white light consumed the dimension.

A bright white light shined down.

Wails echoed across the room, bouncing off the walls. Piercing the ears of anyone present.

It was painful, but she did not care.

A new mother held her dearest daughter in her arms for the first time and nothing could make her happier. The baby cried and cried, little arms frantically flying about as tears streamed down the freshly exposed to oxygen skin.

Little pink strands of hair stuck up in all directions, an unusual and unique hair color.

A laugh came from the mother. "Ah, my little Sakura."

A/N: Honestly, I know time travel has been done. But I am ready to take it on myself. I will break some rules in the Naruto world, and that's okay. That is why this is fan fiction, to live out our wildest dreams (maybe not too wild).

Be niiiiiceeeee please.
