"There!" Hinata pointed at a large mountain with something that looks like a seal attached to the side of the mountain, "this is it."

"Okay..." Naruto stopped them and they crouched not too far from the seal, "Sarada, Sasuke, you two go take care of the seal. The rest of us, be ready to run in."

"Naruto..." Hinata grabbed his shoulder, "be careful. There's a huge mass of chakra in there... Three sources."

"Don't worry, Hinata. I got this!" Naruto grinned and thrust a thumbs-up in front of her. She smiled and nodded.

"Heh..." Boruto chuckled, "okay, let's go."

Sasuke turned to Sarada, "you ready?"

"Oh yeah!" Sarada nodded.

The two Uchiha ran up to the seal? "As soon as I tear off the seal..."

"I'll use my fire-style." Sarada finished his sentence with a hand sign.

"You know fire style? At your age?"

"Hey, you're my dad. You taught it to me, of course. Which is also how I was able to predict your movements the other day."

"That explains it. I'm surprised you were able to do it without your Sharingan." Sasuke chuckled, "how about that immense strength? That was so sudden, and it requires amazing Chakra control... Where did..."

"That's from Mom." Sarada grinned, "Sakura."

"Of course." Sasuke gave a small smile, "okay. Let's do this."

They both shut their eyes, focusing on the seal, then at the fall of a leaf, they both opened their eyes, "Sharingan!"

"Okay, Sarada. Get ready..." Sasuke told her as he grabbed the seal.

Sarada nodded as she weaved the hand signs, "Fire-style! Fire-ball Jutsu!"

With their enhanced speed, Sasuke tore off the seal and threw it in the air. Sarada blew the fireball directly at the seal before it could blow.

Sasuke, soon afterwards, followed Sarada with another series of hand signs, "Chidori!"

The entrance blew with the crackle of electricity and bird chirps.

"Wow...." Boruto gazed in awe, "back when Uncle Sasuke actually had a left ar--"

"Alright!" Naruto ordered, "move in! Let's go!"

"What did you say?" Sasuke peered at Boruto in suspicion.

"Oh, nothing you have to know at the moment." Boruto looked away, avoiding eye contact as they made their way down the hall, which opened up to a large room. What they saw at the center made Boruto go pale.

"B-Boruto..." Sarada grabbed Boruto's arm and held it tight.

Boruto studied her face and saw the horror in her eyes as they watched their parents in chains against the wall and their lives being sucked out of them.

"Hey!!" Younger Naruto yelled, "you! What do you think you're doing to these three?!"

Hotatsu ran forward, "you! You're not supposed to see this!" He looked around and took in the rest of the group, "you're all..." His gaze stopped on Boruto and Sarada, "you two, again! Here to save your parents with the help of your parents? Aha!" Hotatsu cackled as Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Hinata just stared in confusion.

"Wait a second..." Now they all went pale at the sight of the Hyuga crouching in pain at the center of the room, then the three Shinobi against the walls in even more pain.

"Hotatsu!" Sasuke yelled, "what is this? W-who are these three?"

Hotatsu crossed his arms, "don't you see? It's you!"

Hinata covered her mouth in horror.

"That's..." Naruto stared, then clutched his fist against his chest, "you... You're a monster!"

"Well, if you want to get to them..." Hotatsu cracked his knuckles, "you'll need to get through me."

"Get..." Boruto walked past Naruto, shocking him and everyone else there, "get out of my way! Let my dad die and I'll never forgive you, you know?!"

Sarada gasped at this changed Boruto. She smiled with the same determination, "that's right. If you don't step away, I'm warning you, I'll beat you down!"

This effort only made Hotatsu laugh some more, "you? Young girl? What makes you think you can beat me?"

Sarada scoffed, "oh please, I'm Sarada Uchiha! Don't you know who my parents are?"

Sakura grinned as she watched Sarada stand up for her mom, "she's right! She's got her dad's Sharingan."

"And her mom's amazing chakra control." Sasuke stepped up, Sharingan already activated.

"Boruto has my will to fight!" Hinata activated her Byakugan.

"And he's got his dad's Ninja Way, you know?" Naruto yelled, "we never go back on our word!"

Hotatsu laughed even harder, "hey, Neji."

Naruto stopped, "did he just say--"

Chuckling to himself, the man at the center slowly stood up, "ah, I remember when you four were children. And Lady Hinata... What a coincidence."

Hinata didn't waver, "Neji... Stop this! It's not right!"

"I will create a world where only the Hyuga will reign." Neji smiled, "this time, I will revive the Tensagan and be the most powerful man on the planet!" Neji turned to Hotatsu and nodded in approval.

The flows of chakra from Neji to the three adults were cut off, and Hotatsu took Neji's place at the center. He shut his eyes, then immediately opened them with a visual Jutsu that looked like the Byakugan, but with a completely different ability.

"That's..." Hinata peered at Hotatsu's face, "that's not Byakugan!"

Hotatsu ran up to older Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura, then returned to the center, "the process is not over yet, but I'm sure that Neji and I will be able to defeat you children."

"Oh yeah? Where's your proof?" Boruto challenged.

"Right here." Hotatsu slowly lifted his arms, and as he did, the children gasped as Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura stood up.

"They're..." Younger Sasuke peered at them closely, "they're clearly being mind-controlled."

"We have to stop them!" Naruto clenched his fists, "this is so weird..."

"No, we can't hurt them." Boruto stopped them, "they're still our parents. Well..."

"Yeah. We get it." Sasuke nodded, "then what's the plan?"

"We..." Boruto glanced at the adults standing and waiting to fight, "we need to figure out how to bring them back to normal. Otherwise it'd be like running into a smokey room with sunglasses."

"In other words..." Sarada rolled her eyes, "we'd be going in blind."

"And how do we do that?"

"We have to act quick, knowing that our parents can pulverize us in a split second." Boruto sighed.

"Sakura." Sarada turned to the young pinkette, "you take on my dad."

"Me?" Sakura gasped, "but why?"

"Mom told me that out of Team 7, you're the most experienced with breaking Genjutsu." Sarada told her. "So with my dad's Sharingan, even if it is strong, you can break it easily."

"Why not I go in?" Sasuke asked, "Sharingan against Sharingan. I couldn't be caught in my own Genjutsu."

"But puttin Sakura's strength against Sakura's strength won't do any good." Boruto explained, "which is why Sasuke and Hinata, we want you to face my dad. Naruto will take care of Sarada's mom."

"Okay!" Naruto nodded, "what about you two?"

"Me?" Boruto pointed at himself, "well, Sarada will work with Hotatsu. I'll take on Neji."

"With your speed, you won't be able to dodge Neji's attacks." Hinata said, "shouldn't Sarada fight Neji? With her Sharingan, an Uchiha can face off toe to toe with a Hyuga."

"Sarada will be fine." Boruto turned to Sarada and smiled with understanding, "besides, I have an idea."
