you was real close with Ino even when you was young, like childhood friends but when you grew older and was busy with you're own team you both grew apart

whenever you guys always cross past each other you always argue or just ignore each other, you always thought Ino liked Sasuke and that how you guys got apart cause of how you always see how selfish she can be, she always hated how jealous she was of you, you was perfect and she didn't like Sasuke as much as she liked you

Timeskip to the Blank Period, where you're both 19, Ino might look like she love Sai now but she always spend her time with you, always take care of you and always adore you, the way you're strong and amazing to her. One day you went out on a mission with Naruto and then you came back as you're 12 year old self, it was because of a jutsu or just Orochimaru just put something on you so you turn 12, back to you're Jōnin years

Ino met you at the gates and she pause staring at you shocked before turning to Naruto angry "What the heck did you do Naruto!?" She shouted at Naruto before Naruto step back a bit worried, Ino turn her head and look down at you, she is a bit worried but you look confused and shocked about Ino looking older
