Chapter 1: Best Day Ever to the Worst One

"Taylor! Hurry up, or else we'll be late!" My best friend, Brandon, shouted at me. Let me introduce myself. I'm Taylor, and I'm 16. Right at this moment, me and my best friend were getting ready for a cosplay event.

"I'm almost ready!" I shouted down to him, slipping into the washroom to place my wig on. I was going as Obito Uchiha, and my best friend was going as Minato Namikaze. We were going to meet up with the rest of our group at the event, who were going as Rin and Kakashi. I hurriedly tucked my brown hair neatly into the black wig, and clipped it into place. I was about to leave, before I noticed that I forgot to put in my contacts. Almost hitting myself because of my own idiocy, I grabbed my contacts. These ones were specially formatted to look like a two-tomoe Sharingan. Placing them in my eyes and blinking a few times, I looked myself over in the mirror. "Dayum gurl, you sexy." I said to myself with a grin. Nodding once more at my appearance, I dashed out of the room, and straight down the stairs.

"Damn took you long enough." Brandon muttered, before grabbing my wrist and dragging me from my house.

"Hey! Let go dammit!" He ignored me, and pushed me into the passenger seat of his car. I slammed the door shut, almost catching his hand, and smiled at him. I didn't have my driver's license yet, so he was driving me. He rolled his eyes, and slid around the car to the driver's side. Getting in, he turned to me.

"Ready to go?" I nodded excitedly, and shouted,

"Yeah!" And then he started the car, and drove off to the convention centre. Now, the ride was pretty boring at first. It's when we were just about there that I... well, I died, I think.

Here's what happened: We were driving for around ten minutes, and had about fifteen more minutes left. I don't know exactly when it happened, somewhere during the fifteen minute mark of driving, that Brandon's steering control shot, causing us to swerve dangerously into oncoming traffic. Another car slammed into us, and then all I can remember is pain, the smell of smoke, and the sound of an ambulance arriving.

Well, I had a feeling something like this would happen. Believe me, waking up in a hospital, with no memory of how you got there, scared the fuck out of me. So I did the first thing that came to my mind. I screamed. "WHAT THE FUCK!" Someone burst through the door.

"Calm down Uchiha-san!" It was a nurse, with one hell of a short skirt on.

"U-Uchiha?" The hell is this cracker smoking?

"That's your surname isn't it?" I decided to play along.

"Oh, yeah. It is. Just a small lapse of memory there. Sorry... Um, miss?"

"Yes, Uchiha-san?"

"Where exactly am I?"

"Eh? Well, you're in Konoha, the village hidden in the leaves." I stared at her like she was crazy.

"Right. Well, can you tell me where the bathroom is?" She giggled at me, then pointed to a door to her left.

"It's right there." I laughed nervously, then slowly made my way to the bathroom. As soon as the door shut behind me, my mind went into overdrive. 'What the fuck is happening?! Konoha? That doesn't exist. But the view from my window clearly showed a town different than mine... Hmm?' I caught sight of myself in the mirror, and almost screamed again. I bit my tongue, then stared at 'my' reflection. 'This isn't my reflection! Sure, I'm short for my age, but I'm 16 not 12! This... This is Obito Uchiha's reflection! But he looks younger than I would've thought...' My shoulder-length brown hair was replaced by spiky black hair, my dark green eyes were now onyx, and my face was free of freckles. I remembered the cosplay event I was going to. I reached up, and pulled hard on what I assumed was my wig. "Ow, ow, ow.." I mumbled, and stopped pulling. I froze. 'Wait... if this is what I think it is...' I stole a look down 'there'. Lo and behold, I was no longer of the female sex. I groaned, and slammed my head down on the counter.

"Uchiha-san? Is everything okay in there?" I snapped my head up.

"Ah.. Yes! I just... underestimated my strength!" Whoa, talk about a lame excuse.

"Oh, okay. Well, hurry up! The Hokage wants to talk to you!" The Hokage? Fuck me... Ugh. Might as well get used to the idea of being male...

I walked out of the bathroom with a slightly triumphant expression. I have mastered the art of using the bathroom as a male! I'm so proud of myself. My eyes flicker to a single, wide, grey eye. I stole a glance at his hair, my eyes widening in recognition. "K-Ka.. Kaka... Kakashi?!" I pointed dramatically at him, my finger quivering slightly. He didn't respond, just stood there.

"You know our resident copycat?" I turned my gaze to an old man clad in robes, and dropped my finger. I recognized him as the Third Hokage.

"Yeah..." I look back at Kakashi, only to see him looking away.

"Well, Uchiha-san, why don't you get dressed in something other than a hospital robe." The Hokage said, as he passed me an outfit. I grabbed it, and made my way back into the bathroom. I locked the door, and placed the clothes on the counter. I took off the hospital robe, held up the first piece of clothing, and put it on absentmindedly. 'I need to go over my information... Obito isn't really shown, and doesn't have much character development until later, when he becomes a major asshole... maybe I can get by saying I don't remember much... Meh, I'll just talk about the more important details of the last mission for Konoha Obito went on.' I snapped back into a normal mindset as I reached for the last item on the counter. I smiled as I put the goggles over my eyes.

I walked back into the room, my eyes focused on the Hokage. "I'm finished, Hokage-sama..."

"Ah, good. Now, we need to ask you some questions."

"Okay..."

"What is your name?" I saluted, somewhat sarcastically.

"Uchiha Obito, at your service!" Kakashi switched a fiery glare at me.

"Hmm. I see. Now, what was the last thing you were doing?"

"I.. I was saving Kakashi... the rocks, they were falling, a-and..." I started getting emotions that weren't mine as I tried to tell my story. Tears welled up in my eyes. "I-I don't remember..." I pushed the goggles out of my eyes, and rubbed them.

"Are you crying?" Kakashi asked, still somewhat glaring at me.

"N-No! There's just something in my eye." I could feel Kakashi's glare soften.

"But you're wearing goggles."

"S-Shut up..." Good god, what was wrong with me! I'm usually not so emotional. I hiccuped and my tears slowed to a stop. After blinking away the last remaining ones, I gave Kakashi a look. He stared back. After a few moments he asked,

"What is it?"

"Why do you look old?" I asked, even though I knew the reason. Kakashi twitched and glared at me again.

"I'm not old!" I gave him a confused look.

"B-But, aren't we the same age?" At this, the Hokage intervened.

"Yes, you two are supposed to be the same age. But, some form of time travelling jutsu-" I noted the distinct mocking tone he had. "-must have activated when you were about to die... You still have both eyes, so it must have healed you as well. Now, I have a few more questions."

"Yes?"

"What else do you remember? Like, who was your other teammate, and who was your sensei? What was the first mission you went on? What war did you fight in? Who were your parents?" I thought hard, making it look as if I couldn't remember much.

"Uh... My teammates were... Kakashi... and, uh, Rin? Yeah. And my sensei was... Um, some guy named Minato. I fought in the third Shinobi war, I do believe... and I can't seem to remember my first mission, or my parents... They were from the Uchiha clan, right? ... I-I can't remember much of anything aside from the rocks falling and me saving Kakashi..." I grab my head in confusion. It was surprising enough that I had a few memories that weren't mine in the first place. Kakashi placed a hand on my shoulder. I looked up at him, and he patted my shoulder comfortingly.

"Calm down. It's fine, something must have happened to your memory. Most likely head trauma from the rocks." He said. I nodded, and removed my hands from my head. The Hokage cleared his throat, causing me to turn my attention back to him. It was then that I realized I never asked about 'my' family.

"Uh, Hokage-sama? What happened to the Uchiha clan, anyways? Can I go see my parents?" I noticed that he tensed slightly, and Kakashi's hand, which was still on my shoulder, tightened it's hold a little.

"...I'm sorry Obito-kun, but it would be impossible for you to see your parents. Or the rest of the people you may remember." I blinked in mock confusion.

"Why? ...D-Did something happen to them?" I took a step towards the Hokage, for effect. "Tell me! Are they okay!?" I shouted, and I felt, felt, the Sharingan spin to life in my eyes. The Hokage's eyes widened slightly, obviously because of my eyes, but the look turned guilty after a second. He looked towards the ground, while Kakashi's hold on me tightened even more.

"Obito, calm down!" Kakashi said, and I turned my glare on him.

"No, Kakashi. He needs to know."

"Need to know what?!" I looked between them, thinking, 'Wow, I'm a good actor.' "...A-Are they...?" I questioned, knowing that they'd take it the way I wanted them to. The Sharingan in my eyes faded. I stared at the Hokage, and saw him nod ever-so-slightly. A flood of emotions, which I swear were not mine, washed over me. I clenched my fist, and turned on my heel, quickly running out of the room. Tears were brimming in my eyes, but I didn't let them fall.

"Wait, Obito!" I heard Kakashi call after me,but he was silenced by the Hokage.

"Kakashi, go after him. Make sure he doesn't do something stupid-" That was all I heard before I was running through the halls, eventually reaching the outside.

- "We'll get Inoichi to clear him, Kakashi. Just, go after him, before he starts a scene."

"Right, Hokage-sama. I have a feeling about where he's going."

"Go. Bring him back to my office, once he's calmed."-
