Summary
In a world where your soul takes the shape of an animal and people find their soulmates by their souls seeking out another animal that matches them, Kakashi is certain he was never meant for another or that he lost his soulmate long ago. Maybe under falling rocks during a failed mission, or maybe by his own hand just a few weeks later.
In the same world, the seal binding a tailed beast to its vessel will bind the soul as well, leaving the Jinchūriki soulless. It's alright though. Naruto is used to being alone.

Summary
Obito watches from the window as Kakashi leans over the crib, his finger enclosed in a small, chubby fist. The boy is awake, his feet kicking randomly, his eyes watching the ANBU.
Kakashi makes his rounds here. He’s the only protection the orphanage has, really. But this isn’t part of his route.
Tonight, Kakashi has scrolls in the pouches of his standard-issue flak jacket. The greys of his ANBU uniform are gone, his hitai-ate slanted over his left eye, the ANBU mask nowhere in sight. Hung over his shoulders is a large backpack, the tantō sheath hanging instead from his belt.
Kakashi lifts the small, squirming bundle into his arms and body-flickers out of the orphanage.
Oh, this’ll be good.
OR:
Not all is lost after the failure of the fox attack, because the kyūbi's new host is an easy target. The problem is that, apparently, Kakashi is willing to abandon his village for a chance at parenthood.
If only he showed that dedication toward Rin.

Summary
Sakura caught Naruto by the neck of his cloak. The sudden movement made her hood flap down to expose her hair, a ghostly curtain of washed out pink against her cheek.
“That's not a proper reason,” she gritted out.
“It is,” Naruto insisted. When Sakura only shook him in answer he added, placating, “Sakura-chan, it's okay to admit when you're wrong. Y’know—”
“Enough.” Kakashi’s firm voice echoed like a gong in the winter silence.
Or Naruto and team are on a mission in the Land of Frost.

Summary
Naruto tried. He tried so hard. He tried to be good. He tried to be everything the villagers said he wasn’t. He tried to prove everyone wrong but. Everyone has a breaking point, everyone has a line in the sand, and that line has been crossed. Crossed way too many times. Maybe it’s time for him to be the monster everyone assumes him to be.

Who better for the job than one of his own personal ANBU?
Enter Uchiha Shisui, who loves summertime sunshine and has a penchant for sweets and all things bright.

Summary
Kakashi was forty-two, and the world ended in a sea of smoke and ash. Kakashi was forty-two, and there stood a man in the carnage, untouched and unfazed as the village burned around him.
Kakashi is nineteen and the world ends tomorrow, and he will do everything he can to make it right. Even if it means making friends of his enemies. Even if it means erasing everything.
Even if it means staring into the face of all that he hates and smiling.
Kakashi is nineteen and Naruto is five, and there is still time. Instead of counting his losses, he'll make the most of it.

Summary
Uchiha Sasuke is one of the most eligible bachelors in Konoha, looking for successful marriage. He is an elitist, a conservative duke who hates people who do not abide by the rules of society.
Uzumaki Naruto is a rebel, a mere commoner, who plans to revolutionize the system that favours only the rich.
When they accidentally meet at the spring ball, none of them suspects their beliefs would be shaken to their core.
The story takes place sometime in the middle of the nineteenth century, in European-like setting.

Summary
The Eight Trigrams Seal was the most powerful containment seal in the world. It managed to seal the Nine Tails, the most powerful of the tailed beasts, ending its rampage over Konoha at the price of their Yondaime’s life. There was no question of its power.
(Or: There’s a reason using seals on the human body is considered kinjutsu.)

Summary
Some love stories begin with two boys; one who tastes like sunlight, and the other who keeps his hunger locked behind his teeth.
Sasuke doesn’t want friends. He doesn’t want attachment. He definitely doesn’t want Naruto Uzumaki getting under his skin with smiles and late-night hellos and that maddening habit of staying. But Naruto is persistent in the way daylight is persistent, and little by little, Sasuke’s careful distance turns into something softer. Something hungry.
Because Sasuke Uchiha is starving—and feeding has always meant taking a life.
Until Naruto bleeds like it’s nothing at all. Like his body has more to give than it should. Like the rules don’t apply to him.And Naruto has secrets too. He just doesn't know it yet.

Summary
When Kakashi is injured after being hit with an unknown jutsu, his career as a shinobi, and even his life, hang in the balance. Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura fear the loss of their teacher and stick close by. Just when it seems all hope is lost, a mysterious stranger from Kakashi’s past suddenly appears.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. Not really canon, as I introduce some characters sooner than the anime does and have a couple other non canon things planned, but tried to blend in a way that feels canon. This piece takes place sometime before the Chunin exams. Did my best to keep the characters true to themselves. This is my very first fan fic piece. Multi-chapter, will try to keep updates as regular as possible. Also, do not read if you don’t want spoilers and have not watched Shippuden, as Shippuden reveals a few things the first series did not. Please read, review, and enjoy!
Also, only posted here on AO3, so if reading elsewhere, the work has been stolen.- Language:

Summary
One moment, Naruto is seventeen, bruised, battered, with more scars littering his body than any other seventeen year old should have, trying his damndest best to hold the world together even when it already seems to have crumbled apart.
The next, he is six again, opening his eyes to four stone Hokage heads on the monument.
There is a catch. (There's always a catch)

Summary
The day after the Nine-Tails’ attack, Kakashi leaves Konoha. He’s fourteen, he’s alone, and he’s had enough. Shinobi life has done nothing for him, apart from taking everything – everyone – that he holds dear.
So he leaves. He just wants to be alone; people only ever die around him, anyway. He tries his best to never care about anyone again.
Ten years later, Naruto stumbles across a silver-haired half-dead missing-nin in the woods – and he becomes determined to turn this stranger into his first and only friend.

Summary
Obito arrives a few moments earlier when Rin jumps in front of Kakashi’s chidori. He’s still too late to save her, but he’s in time to watch the sequence of events that makes Kakashi shatter. Instead of returning to Madara, he chooses to live by his own mantra and refuses to abandon his friend in his time of need. Obito returns to Konoha with Kakashi, and this results in just a few unintended consequences. One of them being his insistence that he should be allowed to care for his late sensei’s orphan son, no matter what the Sandaime might say about the matter. He’s not quite sure how Kakashi becoming his unofficial co-parent fits into this, but he’ll figure it out eventually.
