Akanishi-san: I donno where I got this idea, but I just did for some odd reason. Well, anyway, please read and review!

READ THIS WARNING: There will be NO Itachi planned out right now, and will never, most likely, so no triggering Sasuke to getting power. Thus, no Sasuke leaving! Okay? He's still in Konoha, and he still plans on killing Itachi still though. Just not with the help of Oro.

Ch1. Memories

Kakashi sighed as he sat in front of the memorial with his friend's name carved in it. "Obito…" He whispered, not meant for anyone, but just to himself. He had his hands in his pockets and he looked at the memorial sadly with his one eye. He slowly moved his head up into the sky, seeing birds flying. He closed his eye, and opened them after a sigh of grief.

This sigh wasn't for Obito only. He had meant it for another person as well. "Sora..." He whispered into the air. That day, this day, where he stood, was when he had lost her. When she disappeared. Because of him.

FLASH BACK

"Sora, a moment please." A man with white-silver hair said to a young girl with black hair that reached to her waist that was in a ponytail. She and 4 others were in a training field, and they were currently practicing shuriken techniques, with her sensei, the Fourth Hokage.

One of the boys in the training field with silver hair glanced up. "What are you doing here, grandfather?" He asked, quit curious.

((I know, Obito and Rin are there too. This will be a 4-man cell team. Just to make this flow together. Please don't say anyting about it, like: OMG! THERE ARE NO 4-MAN CELL TEAM! Because, you aren't the freaking writer of this manga, and you are not the writer of this story, how would you know? Now, moving on.))

The man only smiled at his grandson as the young girl trotted over to him with curiosity in her eyes that twinkled. "Yes, Ojii-sama?" She asked.

The man smiled at her softly, tint of worry clearly written on his eyes. "Sora, I need…to tell you something."

The girl frowned, wondering what was making him uncomfortable. "What is it?"

The man sighed, and reached down to her and hugged her. "You are going to live with us now, Sora." He whispered to her carefully. He felt her tighten. "Your mother and father…they were on a mission, and they…" He dropped it.

Sora, however, knew what he was going to say. "Mother…Father…" She breathed. She tore away from Kakashi's grandfather, with tears forming in her eyes. "No!" She yelled. "Mother! Father!" She yelled, and was gone, heading towards her home. She heard him yelling her name, her team mates yelling her name, but she didn't care. She kept on running, her mind racing.

"Mother! Father!" She screamed as she reached her own door. She grabbed her keys form her pockets with her shaking hand. She had missed the key holes couple of times, until she got it in. She twisted it hurriedly, and opened the door. Inside, she saw and felt the emptiness of the house.

"Mother…Father…?" She asked, to the empty house. She stepped in, to feel even more emptiness of the house. "Mother…Father…" She breathed once more, her knees shaking.

"Sora-chan!" Someone yelled her name.

"Obito, come back!" Someone else yelled.

Sora turned around, to see the young Uchiha at her door steps. She looked at him with teary eyes, sobbing. "Obito…" She managed to sob out. "Mother and Father…" She looked away from him.

"Sora…" A female voice said. "Sora…?" The next was asked in more of a question.

Sora again looked at her door steps, to see Rin, Yondaime, Kakashi, and his grandfather.

"Sora…" The Yondaime looked at her with worry in his eyes. "I heard about your…" He dropped his gaze.

Kakashi only looked at her with his 2 eyes, feeling stupid. Feelings brought weakness, and what she was doing now was something a weakling would do. Crying. Emotions were a waste. He had seen her cry and show many other emotions, feeling her as more of a weakling. He didn't like her one bit. Emotions. He hated them.

((Remember, this is before Obito dies, so Kakashi still has both of his eyes. Plus, because he didn't go on the mission where Obito dies, he thinks that emotions are waste still.))

Sora looked at her teacher, and her eyes drifted to the others, and when she saw Kakashi, she whimpered. "Kakashi-kun…" She said, and bringing her sleeves up, she whipped her tears away. "Hehe…" She managed to laugh weakly, and smile.

The fourth knew why she was doing that. Sora knew about Kakashi's thoughts on emotions, and she was trying to hide it, so he would accept her. Kakashi hadn't accepted her yet, he still thought of her as a weakling who is always wasted by emotions. He looked at his students with concern in his eyes.

A moment passed, until Kakashi's grandfather reached a hand towards her. "Come, Sora. We will take you in. Your parents and I are good friends, and we have agreed to take you in if…anything had happened to them." Sora only looked at his offering hand, and did nothing else. "Sora?" He asked, uncertain.

Sora looked away, her smile gone, her tears forming up once more. Quickly, she whipped them off, and nodded. "My stuff…" She looked upstairs.

Kakashi's grandfather smiled at her once more. "Someone will get them for you later." He said to her softly. "For now, come to our house, rest."

Sora nodded, and took his hand. She looked back once more, to her house. There were no movements in the house, nothing. No one was there, and no one will return to that house. She felt it, she knew it. No one was going to be there anymore.

Couple Months Later (Still Flashback)

"Hokage-sama!" An Anbu member dropped to a tree, clearly worried.

Kakashi looked up from his training, to see the Anbu member now next to his teacher. "Whats up?" His teacher asked, worried. "Anything wrong?"

The others, including Sora and Kakashi stopped their trainings as well and looked at the Anbu as he whispered something to him. The Yondaime froze, and his brows connected with his frown. "I'll be there." He quickly said. With a nod, the Anbu left, and the fourth turned to his students. "Training is cancelled, Kakashi, Sora, stay here."

Obediently, Kakashi and Sora remained, as Obito was dragged off by Rin, who knew something was up. "What is wrong?" Sora asked, approaching him.

Kakashi also approached him, wondering the same thing. The fourth looked at Kakashi, and shook his head. "Kakashi and Sora, no matter what anyone tells you, I want you to stay here. Do you understand me?" He asked them. "I will keep this Anbu," An Anbu appeared next to them. "With you at all times. Do not leave." With that final word, he disappeared, only leaving Kakashi, Sora, and the Anbu in the clearing.

"What's going on?" Sora asked, frowning as well. "Please tell us, Sensei didn't tell you that you can not tell us." She said smartly.

The Anbu fidgeted, wondering if he should say or not. "Well…" He trailed off.

"Please?" Sora asked. "Be…" She stopped, for an explosion was heard, from a far. "What…what's going on?" She looked over to where she heard the explosion, where smoke now erupted.

The Anbu looked at them. "The Fourth told you to stay." He said warningly as Kakashi tried to leave. "If you attempt to leave, I will have to be forced to stop you."

Sora looked at Kakashi, then to the Anbu. "But…that was form where Kakashi's house is!" She exclaimed. "What's going on?" She demanded, fear dancing on her face and eyes.

Kakashi rolled his eyes. He hated her still, more than ever. Not that she is living with him, he saw more of her, more of her emotions, and more hatred towards her. Emotions. He saw it everywhere on her. Weak. He always thought when she did that. With his neutral face, he turned to the Anbu, trying to figure out the problem as well.

That was when it hit him. Yondaime told him to stay and Sora as well. Being guarded by Anbu, and the explosion from towards his home? Someone was attacking his house! He whipped his head towards his house, intending to go. Before he could do so, he felt a pressure on back of his neck, and all he saw was darkness.

"…Kaka……Sora….all……every….dead…." Kakashi slowly opened his eyes, feeling a headache growing in his head.

"Urg…" Kakashi mumbled as he slowly lifted his head up from a bed, he apparently had been moved to a hospital. "What happened?"

He looked around, to see Sora on a chair, looking at the ground, drops of water coming from her. More emotions…he looked at her with disgust, and turned his head towards his teacher. The way his teacher looked at him made him realize what happened earlier. "What happened? Where's my family!" He nearly screamed the last words. "Where are they?" He demanded.

The Fourth didn't answer, so he turned his gaze towards Rin. She looked at him with teary eyes, and turned away. When he turned to Obito, he also looked away. They refused to meet his eyes. This made his thoughts worsen. "Tell me!"

The Fourth stepped closer to him. "Kakashi…your whole clan…was…killed…Your grandfather is still alive though, Kakashi. He's…not doing well though."

Kakashi looked at him, horror struck. "Who did it?" He asked, quite calmly if you compare with his expression on face. His face told of his true emotions, but his tone of voice denied it.

The Fourth looked at Sora, who was still on the chair, not looking at them. "They were assassins. They wanted something from your clan. Hired by someone."

Kakashi frowned. Was there something valuable in his clan? "Where is my grandfather?" He asked after a moment.

The fourth looked towards the door, and back to him. "Room 412." He said to the soon to be last member of Hatake clan. "He probably won't…" He trailed off.

Kakashi merely nodded, and walked out of the room where everyone watched him leave. "Grandfather?" He asked, as he knocked on the door. When no response came, he slowly opened the door, and entered. "Grandfather?" he said again. He reached the bed, with his grandfather in it, quite worried. No one else was in the room, which he thought it strange. How come there were no nurses or doctors? Was his condition so bad that the doctors and nurses didn't even bother to try something?

His grandfather looked at Kakashi with almost empty eyes. "Kaka…shi." He managed to say. "I'm…glad you are…all right."

Kakashi frowned. "Don't say such things. Makes it sound like you are going to die." He managed to smile. "Which you aren't, by the way." He said. It was more to reassure himself rather than his grandfather, though.

His grandfather smiled softly. "Kakashi, I'm…sorry, I…Don't think I will…make it." He coughed, the heart monitor slowing its beeping. "Kakashi…Sora…"

"She's fine." Kakashi snapped. He hated thinking about her at this moment. The tears she cries were annoying; they were such a waste, something that pulled down the team. He hated her. But is that true? Something always nagged at him when he thought that. Did he truly hate her? He let it drop for now, though.

Kakashi's grandfather frowned. "Why do you…not like her?" Kakashi merely rolled his eyes. "Kakashi…you need to protect her…" He said, ignoring his grandson's answer. "The assassins want her…the reason…they came…was to take her…"

Kakashi's eyes flew open, goggling at him. "The reason everyone else died is because of her? The weakling?" He almost yelled out those words. He was furious. One girl, she had killed all of his family!

He heard a clatter out side. Kakashi turned around, to see none other than Sora. He didn't want to see her now, not when he heard this! Heck, he didn't want to see her ever! "What are you doing here!" He snapped at her. What good was she to anyone anyway?

Sora backed up a bit, shaking. "Because of…me?" She whispered. Her eyes looked into Kakashi, whose eyes were blazing with hate towards her. "I…" She quickly turned, and sped away from him, and the room.

"Get…her." His grandfather spoke. "Tell her, she…is forgiven, and…we do not…regret in…taking her in…"

Kakashi frowned at his grandfather. "What! It is all her fault!" He yelled. "If she hadn't come..."

His grandfather shook his head. The heart monitor was slowing even more. "No…it's not…Get her…she's…important, she needs…you, and you…need her as well…" The heart monitor stopped beeping, instead, a long beeping sound was heard, the line no longer moving up and down, now only in a straight line.

Kakashi backed up a bit, surprised. Was he dead? What's going on? Why does he need her? What was he talking about? It was ALL her fault. EVERYTHING was.

"Kakashi!" Someone yelled behind him.

Kakashi turned around to see his teacher, panting. "Where's Sora!" He demanded.

Kakashi scowled. Sora this, Sora that. Why does everyone care about her so much? "She ran off towards that way." He said to him simply, pointing over to where she went.

The Fourth cursed, and ran towards where she had gone. "Send Anbu's out, find her!" Kakashi heard him yell orders, and he heard silence once more. What was going on? What's so special about her? What did his grandfather mean when he said he needs her?

End Flashback

He never found out all these questions he had in his head. The only answer he got was from his experience with Obito, it made his realize that all those emotions she showed here true from bottom of her heart, and there were nothing wrong with it. What was wrong was him, hating her for those tears she showed. He figured out after a while that he really cared for her, and the only reason he kept away from her was because of those feelings as well. Love was an emotion, he hated that as well. Those tears and his feelings made him cold to her. He couldn't confess now either, or say sorry for the silly reasons. She was gone, disappeared; she was never seen after that day. With his cold eyes seeing her off.
