Hello all, for some of you who may have noticed, this story has all ready been published on this website; however, i accidently deleted it a while ago, so here I am reposting it! I hope you can all re-enjoy it and for those of you who haven't read it before, please excuse the lack of accuracy with canon. I wrote and finished it a year or so ago. Anyway, that's it!

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto because if I did things would be A LOT different. Plus I'm not Japanese and I don't draw that good.


Kakashi was speeding towards his destination. The Akatsuki were becoming active again and Tsunade didn't want to take any chances. So when a report came in that a member of the Akatsuki had been seen on the border of Earth and Lightening they immediately sent Kakashi, whose team had been dealing with Akatsuki the most, to confirm the sighting and if given the chance eliminate the target. So now Kakashi was traveling through fields and forests to check on this disturbance as quickly as possible (so that he could get back to his beloved Icha Icha Tactics ).

When he within 10 kilometers of the reported area, Kakashi stopped at a nearby town and sent a message back to Konoha to tell the Hokage where he was so that she could be prepared if anything happened. If he recalled correctly, a second team should have been sent right after him so that he could have back up in case it was needed. Kakashi sighed as he sent to letter by falcon-mail and prepped himself for the search.

When Kakashi left the town he felt the weirdest chakra signal. Oddly enough it felt...familiar. Kakashi had stopped running and surveyed the surrounding area. Why did it feel familiar? Was there any Konoha ninja around? No, that couldn't be it. There wouldn't be any Konoha ninja sent to an area where any Akatsuki were rumored to be and especially after the Copy Ninja himself had been sent to deal with the problem. So then what was it?

Kakashi felt the chakra signiture come closer to his right and he began to sprint in that direction.

'What the hell is this?' thought Kakashi.

When he came upon a clearing he stopped, knowing this was where the chakra was strongest. Kakashi flipped up the left side of his headband and scanned the area with his Sharingan. He stopped when he saw a flash of red.

"It's no use. I know you're there. Come out or I'll just come and get you myself."

The person who came out of the surrounding vegetation was defintely an Akatsuki judging by the black cloak with red clouds printed on it. Otherwise he...really wasn't so Akatsuki-ish. With the orange mask and goofy way of walking he looked like Naruto dressing up for Halloween. Kakashi sweatdropped when he saw the other ninja trip over a stick.

"Ah! Tobi didn't see that. Ahem...gomen shinobi-san. Did you want anything?"

"..."

At this, Kakashi really didn't know what the hell to do. Seems like they're letting just anyone into evil organizations these days. Kakashi rubbed at the back of his head.

"Ummm...you're part of the akatsuki...right?" At this 'Tobi' seemed to get excited.

"Yes! Tobi is part of the Akatsuki! It took Tobi a while, but I finally got in! Actually I kinda lost my partner, Deidara-sempai. He's kinda short, girly lookin', and has blonde hair. Oh! He has mouths on his hands too, if you got close enough to him. Have you seen him?"

Kakashi sweatdropped again. 'This guy can't be serious. I don't even like Deidara, but I sure as hell feel sorry for the guy.'

Kakashi scratched the back of his neck again.

"Ano...yeah. I saw him back in town. Do you want me to escort you?"

Tobi started to look really excited now. Kakashi unconsciously backed away from him.

"Really!! Oh my god, thank-you! This is great! Come on shinobi-san!"

Tobi grabbed the confused Kakashi's hand and started to sprint in the direction that Kakashi had come from.

'Why does this guy seem so familiar. He almost reminds me of...Obito.'


And there you go. All shiny, new, and revised just for you. If you wanna drop a review, you can, but it's not necessary or anything, so don't feel guilty if you don't want to (not that I think that you will, you bastards).

Anyways, I feel obligated to advertise for my other stories, although I haven't updated them in forever and one is even in haitus. I'm sorry! I even have the audacity to post a new story that's about Star Trek 2009. I know, I know. I feel like shit for doing that, but hopefully writing and posting a new story will help motivate me to continue my old ones, right? Right.
