Chapter 1
It was a truly magnificent site, watching the sunset, or so Kakashi Hatake thought. He was perched on a cliff above Konoha, watching the sky as he had been doing for the last few hours, almost unmoving. He came out here every time he had a day off from his ninja missions, which had become rare. He enjoyed it here. He could remember his past in a good light, for once. He had done so many wrongs, hurts so many people, and lost the ones he loved. But here was his sanctity. Here those memories that taunted were vanquished for the time being by some happier ones that he could only recall on this precise spot.
Kakashi was at the age of 17 now, not quite a man, but not a child. He had never really been a child. He had been a ninja ever since he was knee high to a grass hopper, trying to follow in his legendary father's footsteps. That was until before the incident, when his Father took his own life. The man whom Kakashi greatly looked up to was gone. And what made it worse was that it was Kakashi who had found him. Soaked in his own blood. Just as the last glimmers off light left his eyes for good.
And then there was Obito. His one true best friend who had taught him to relax. The thing was, they never really had much time together, once Kakashi finally accepted him. Their mission left Obito crushed under huge boulders, his life slowly dying.
Finally, there was Minato. His Sensei. The man who has looked out for him after his father's passing. The man who taught Kakashi, giving him the strength to go on in this world. He was gone too. He sacrificed himself to save his village.
Not only had Kakashi witnessed the deaths of his loved ones, but he was responsible for the deaths of many other. His shinobi lifestyle demanded this. Too much death loomed over Kakashi, threatening to crush him. So far he had kept it at bay. Work came first. He found it relieving on days like this to be able to escape and relieve the few happy memories that he has, without regret hounding him.
Suddenly, he jerked up. He was supposed to go and meet with the Hokage, and he was late.
'Oh well', he thought, 'I'm always late anyway'. With that thought he got up and took a walk to the Hokage. He was in no rush to lose this sense of well being and be sent on another mission. But it was inevitable after all as he was a shinobi, one of the best that Konoha had despite his age.
"Sorry I'm late," Kakashi said smiling behind his mask whilst rubbing the back of his head. "I got lost on the-"
"-road of life?" the Hokage said, cutting Kakashi off. How many times had he heard this particular excuse from Kakashi. The Hokage noticed that Kakashi was taken aback at first, but quickly regained his composure and let out a slight laugh, waiting for the Hokage to continue.
"I have a mission for you, Kakashi. A curious one at that, but I am confident that your skills will be more than enough. After all you are the Legendary Copy Ninja, Sharingan Kakashi." Kakashi was uncomfortable that he was being address like this, but allowed the Hokage to continue. "This is a secret mission that I am sending you on. One that will take you far away, out of contact with us for a long period of time. It is going to be dangerous, so keep your wits about you. This is going to be a solo mission, though you will undoubtedly meet up with people that will be able to help you. Maybe even forming your own comrades for the purpose of this mission."
"Earlier on today, a Senator from a distance land came to us asking for assistance." The Hokage continued. "She was weak and battle worn, with only one of her followers with her who had survived the journey here. When they travelling, they were knocked off course by attackers attempting to take her life. All but one of her comrades perished. They wondered around for days, lost and in need of help, until they stumbled across our village. Here, their minor wounds were
treated and they were able to contact some of their allies to come and help them. Unfortunately, they are miles away. I want you to accompany the Senator to the location in which she is going to meet her allies, protecting her against all danger. When you reach this location and meet up with her people, I want you to accompany them back to Coruscant. Only there will she find the protection that she needs.
"You leave in an hour. Meet at the entrance of Konoha on time, with your supplies. It is there that you will find the Senator and her follower. Good luck Kakashi, and please, be careful.
Kakashi ran over what he had just been told, and to say the least, he was curious. Why were they aiding complete strangers, as if they were strong and trusted allies in need? Why was he being sent away to Coruscant, where ever that was, when he could be so much more useful here? Despite these thoughts Kakashi headed to his home to gather the supplies that he needed. He was a shinobi of Konoha and he would do his duty, no matter how strange it was.
