''FOUND YOU''
The black haired boy shouted. Kakashi sighed, the boy was loud! What kind of ninja screams at a potential threat? These people are weird.
''Obito? Already up?'' Minato asked.
Obito huffed and yelled. ''Don't try to sweet talk to me! Where were you? Are you two sharing secrets or something?!''
''Obito calm down'' the girl said.
The boy scowled but was quiet. Finally, he didn't like loud people, they made him feel uncomfortable. And now he couldn't ask more questions! But on the other hand the man couldn't question him about his past so maybe it was better that they were interrupted. Well, this silence was awkward.
Minato interrupted the silence, ''So guys, did you sleep well?''
Rin nodded and Obito only glared at Minato and Kakashi. ''What are we going to do now? Is the mission still on?'' Rin asked.
Minato looked thoughtful, with the boy the whole plan changed. Should he bring the boy with him? No, he didn't know what the boy was up to, it was too dangerous. But he didn't want to Kakashi alone again, he finally found his missing student.
Then Obito couldn't take it anymore, ''Sensei let's just go back, the mission was boring anyway who wants to listen to rumors of that weird traitorous snake man Orochimaru? We are ninja's not some gossip magazines''
Kakashi froze, weird snake man? Did they really mean Orochimaru? So Pakkun was right, they knew that he was a traitor. He heard the rumors that Orochimaru betrayed Konoha but they were so vague that he didn't know for sure. But Pakkun said it and these Konoha nins confirmed it too. The last time he encountered Orochimaru, it wasn't a pleasant one.

Don't hide boy, don't hide because I will find you. He ran, he had to, this man was so much stronger than him. The scroll, he had to protect it! ''Found you'' a cruel voice said!
Quickly he made the handseals, he had to us chidori but before he could attack his attacker slammed him against a tree. ''That's some nice justu you have boy, but I'm afraid you can't hurt me with that.''. Kakashi was gasping for air, he was choking him, he had to get away. But his attempts were futile.
''Give me the scroll and maybe I will let you live.''
''Never''
''That's too bad then I have to take it by force''
And then there was darkness, he failed.
(o)
Minato didn't miss the sudden change of posture in the boy, the boy knew something. ''Kakashi, do you know something about him?''
Kakashi blinked, ''Who Orochimaru, not really?'' He lied smoothly.
''I know you know something, maybe I have to bring you back to Konoha?'' He knew this was risky the boy could either attack him and run away or they boy would say something, he knew the boy was very wary about Konoha.
He tensed, no way he was going back. He looked at the man, did he mean it or was he just playing around? Maybe he could tell them a little, just rumors that everyone knew. ''What do you want to know?''
Minato let an inner shout, it worked! He was a genius, he finally understood why people said he was a genius! He smiled, ''How do you know Orochimaru?''
''Who hasn't heard about him? Everyone in the Sound is talking about him'' It's all his fault.
That was not the answer he was expecting, he wanted to know more, ''What do they say?''
''That he is hiding from his village and that he is a traitor'' and that wasn't even a lie Kakashi thought, because when he was in de the city he heard those rumors.
Obito frowned, ''You're lying, you know more''
Rin didn't know what was happening, Obito was looking very serious, the goofy face was gone. What are you doing Obito?!
''No let me correct that, you are saying the truth, but not all of it.''
There fell an awkward silence again. This must be a routine Kakashi thought. First questions then there is a silence and then someone is going to break that silence with a question and the question will be to awkward so there is again an awkward silence. And how the heck did that boy know he was not saying the entire truth? He had a mask and he knew that he had a stoic expression. So how?
He saw the surprise on the boys face, he didn't expect him to see right through all his masks. Obito didn't know why but he could read this boy as an open book. When he mentioned Orochimaru he saw a flash of hate in those grey eyes, The boy hated Orochimaru with all his heart.
