The three of them entered the room to see Tenten already there and crying. Tenten ran to Junshin and hugged him tightly. Even though it felt weird, he knew that she was in need and he needed to put his own feelings aside and comfort Tenten. Then Junshin began to faint again.

"Not now." He said.

Neji caught him.

"Junshin, are you alright."

Junshin looked around and saw that Tenten was on the other side of Satori's bed and that Shizune was gone.

"Neji was not here. It was Shizune."

He looked down and saw that he was wearing his Jonin vest.

"My outfit has changed. What is my rank?"

"You're a Jonin." Tenten said.

"Are we still together?"

Tenten nodded.

Neji activated his Byakugan and scanned Junshin's chakra.

"I'm seeing a slight difference in your chakra pattern."

"What does that mean?"

"I don't know. This is new to me. I'll to study it further."

Junshin looked at Tenten who was still teary eyed but was showing concern for him.

Later that day, Junshin and Neji stood in front of Tsunade.

"I have studied what have found and it turns out that Junshin does not belong in our universe."

Junshin and Tsunade looked confused even more.

"What?" Tsunade asked.

"Everything has a certain signature to its own universe. It would appear that Junshin's is different from ours."

"Junshin, you say that the discontinuities started after a trip you took a few days ago?"

Junshin nodded.

"I know for a fact that you haven't left the village for awhile now."

"I understand that but I clearly remember the trip and entering the village. Satori was waiting for me at the gates."

"Do you remember the route you took?"

"Yeah."

"Let's back track that route and see if we can't pick up anything unusual. Get Team 7 to help out."

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Shizune said.

Shortly later, Neji, Tenten Junshin, Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke and even Tsunade walked out of the gates and back tracked the route that Junshin took. Neji had his Byakugan activated as well as Sasuke's Sharingan. Junshin had heard about Sasuke from different people but never thought he'd meet him. He kept glancing at him. Sasuke noticed and looked back at Junshin.

"You want something, Junshin?"

"No, it's nothing." Junshin said.

"Then stop looking at me. You're making me nervous."

Neji stopped.

"I'm seeing a distortion up ahead and a chakra signature that matches Junshin's leading from it."

"So I was here."

"I have an explanation." Neji said.

The others listened in on Neji's explanation.

"It would appear that this distortion is a so called key hole that intersects other realities."

"What do you mean by that?" Sakura asked.

"In any event, there are an infinite number of outcomes our choices will determine which outcome will follow. There is a theory that any possibilities that can happen, do happen in alternate universes."

"I've experienced something like this before. My team passed through something that sent us into a time where Orochimaru had taken over Konoha this might be in relation to that." Junshin said.

"It's possible." Neji said.

"How do I get back?"

"I'm guessing that you can walk back through the distortion following the chakra trail. I'll be able to guide you with my Byakugan until you reach the distortion."

"Let's do it, dattebayo." Naruto said.

Tenten walked up to Junshin and hugged him. They stared into each other's eyes and then finally Junshin leaned in for a kiss. Then Junshin began to walk away as Tenten watched. He stopped and looked back at her then turned back around and began towards the distortion guided by Neji's instructions. He finally reached the distortion and passed through it. In a flash of light he found himself lying on the ground a few hundred yards from the Konoha gates.

"I'm home." He said with a smile.

Later, Junshin and Satori walked through the streets of Konoha heading towards Junshin's apartment.

"So you don't think that this distortion is anything we need to worry about?" Satori asked.

"No. I think me passing through it resealed it. Hopefully."

"I'm looking forward to reading your report."

They walked up to his door and again Junshin was hesitant on entering.

"Something wrong?"

"I know what you are planning. I will not be surprised."

"Surprised? I don't know what you are talking about."

"Of course you don't." Junshin said walking in.

He walked in and set his things down. He cautiously turned the corner to see if anyone was there and no one was.

"Happy birthday, Junshin." Tenten said startling him. "I hope you don't mind I let myself in."

"So you do not live here?"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"It is a long story."

Tenten picked up a gift and handed it to Junshin. "Satori wanted to throw you a surprise party but I talked him out of it. I figured you'd want to be alone or something."

She headed for the door.

"Tenten, you don't have to leave."

"Oh?"

"I have not had dinner. Would you care to join me?"

"Sure."

The End
