Hey. This is an angst one-shot song fic. It's my first, so be kind. The song is 'Good Riddance (Time of your life)' by Green Day. I no own. By the way, I don't know Rin's family name, so I came up with one. It means 'friend.'
Good Riddance

I hope you had the time of your life.
Kakashi stood before the memorial, tears in black and red eye alike. His sensei and teammate stood behind him, showing no haste. Kakashi's eyes were trained on one name.

For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.
The Yondaime Hokage fell from his toad summon, soul consumed by the Shinigami. The battle was won, but Kakashi had lost.
'Kazama Arashi. KIA.'
It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
Kakashi stood before his new team of genin. They looked up and smiled at him. He smiled back.
Maybe, just maybe, things would turn out better this time around.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
Once again, Kakashi stood before the memorial, tears in his eyes. His son stood beside him, barley four.
And the cycle begins anew.
'Hatake Sakura. KIA.'

I hope you had the time of your life…
The End.
