This is my first Naruto Fanfic. I don't own the characters (obviously). I notice there are hardly any ObiKaka (Obito x Kakashi) Fanfics, and I feel its my job to add one seeing how obsessed with this ship I am. This story takes place in a world where Obito was not lost in the fight for Kanabi bridge under all of those rocks. It's a better time for everyone. the war is over and there wasn't any unneeded deaths (exceptrin'si'msorryihateher). I hope you like it! :D
Ringing, that's all Kakashi could hear when he came to. Ringing from the brunt impact of the avalanche of large boulders they were encased in. He held his throbbing head and slowly sat up, shaking it to try to clear the echoing white noise. After a moment of his harsh movements all he did was make himself lightheaded, now he could hear something start to overpower the ringing. It sounded like muffled yelling even while in the collapsed room of the cave they were trapped in. The silver haired teen looked over to the source of the screaming and saw his teammate, Rin, kneeling in front of a boulder. The impact that should have crushed him. He had heard it coming, but-
"Obito!"
That's right. Kakashi remembered something shoving him away before the rock fell. He stood up, wobbling a bit on his two feet as he approached, looking down at what the brunette was crying at. It was their other teammate, Obito. Only half of his body showed from under the boulder, with the other half... probably being crushed to the point it would be demolished and lost forever. All Kakashi could do was stare. He thought the Uchiha disliked him, but here he was sacrificing himself with his own body. The young Jonin couldn't breathe with all of the guilt starting to bubble in his chest. They had just to started get along, so why did this have to happen?!
"Are...You two alright?"
Kakashi flinched at the sound of Obito's voice. It was strained from the lack of oxygen he was receiving from having one of his lungs crushed, and hoarse from all of the dirt and dust that he had most likely breathed in. It made the guilt start to excilate up to Kakashi's throat. Even while he felt this nauseous, he still lunged closer to Obito and pushed at the boulder with all the strength he had left in his tired body, attempting to free his friend.
"It's...no use Kakashi...," he began quietly, grabbing Kakashi's attention for a moment. "Even if you got it off...I wouldn't last..."
That was enough to have Kakashi collapse to his knees, the anxiety racking at his chest as he began to panic, his fists crashing hard into the ground. "Damn it!" He brought his arms up and slammed them back down, unable to feel the pain in the adrenaline of the situation. He continued to assault the ground and yell more obscenities, before stopping. He began to shake, shell shocked from the situation.
"If...If only I had listened to you... And we came to save Rin together in the first place… This wouldn't have happened!" Kakashi's throat began to swell a bit and shut as he started to sob. Behind him he could hear the shuffling of Rin moving closer to them both, still stuck in how to respond to the misfortune of what was happening.
"So what if I'm a captain!? So what if I'm a Jonin!?" He was asking himself these questions. If he was so great, a prodigy, as many had called him whether out of spite or not, why couldn't he save a single friend?
"Oh yeah…" Kakashi looked up in alarm as Obito began to speak again with an even rougher voice, "I had forgotten… I was the only one who… didn't give you a gift for becoming a Jonin...Kakashi"
"What do-"
"I was… wondering what to give you… And I just had a thought.."
Kakashi and Rin exchanged worried glances to each other, thinking: This is not the time for this now, before looking back to their crushed teammate. "And don't worry… It's not some useless, extra baggage... I'm giving you... my Sharingan." The brunette and silver fox both gave a small gasp in unison before he continued, "You...are an amazing Jonin… despite what the village... might say… You are a great… jonin… That's what I believe… So please… accept it…" Kakashi gripped onto his knees as Rin wiped away her tears. He couldn't just accept this-
"Rin...use your medical ninjutsu… Take my eye… and transplant it to replace the one he lost… protecting me…"
"Alright…" She turned to one she would be giving the new eye to, "Kakashi, come over here… I'll start now." He could only look away from them both, drowning further into the feeling of despair that was washing over him. He'd have to leave the Uchiha to die? He couldn't do anything to even try to help? This was just like… Just like his father. The man he had despised for leaving him alone. The man who broke the Shinobi code- Which Obito had done as well when he forsake their mission for the bridge to go rescue Rin.
"I'm about… to die...but… I'll become your eye… I'll be able to see… what the future has in store… for you…"
Kakashi just sat there in awe. Unlike Kakashi's father, Obito was going to leave something behind. Something to be remembered by. The young Jonin nodded numbly, and they then began the agonizing procedure. Though outside, something was about to take place.
