YES! It starts with a flash back, just so you know, and can't say I didn't warn you.

Sorry for so much flashing back, but things must be explained! Two more chapters at least.

Note: I don't own Naruto, cuz if I did things would be really messed up.

Please Read and Review or Sai's abs will eat you.

Third Chapter commences...NOW!

When the dust had settled Rin saw him there, and her heart almost stopped.

"Obito-kun!" she cried running to the bolder that now sat on top of her teammate. They ran to him, but it was too late. Kakashi leant his weight against the bolder, trying with all his might to push it, but it would not budge. Obito groaned.

"I'm done in for," he had managed to whisper.

"No! Don't say that!" Rin was kneeling beside him now.

"I've finally got something to give you for becoming a jounin," whispered Obito. Kakashi looked fearfully at his teammate. "Don't worry, it won't be a burden, because I'm giving you this Sharingan of mine," said Obito in a shuddering breath. "Rin, could you…?" he asked. Rin's vision was blurring with tears. 'How did this happen?' She managed to nod.

"K…K…Ka…Kakashi-kun?" she whispered and gestured for him to come closer. In minutes it was over, and after gently wrapping a bandage over where his eye had been, Rin sat back, sweat running down her face. Kakashi still looked fearful, he was trembling, tears leaking from his new Sharingan eye. Obito lay back and waited.

"Go on," encouraged the Uchiha dimly. "Get out of here before they come back,"

"We can't just leave you," replied Kakashi, desperately trying to stop the tears.

"Kakashi, what about that kunai, Sensei gave you?" asked Rin trying to wipe away the tears still leaking from her eyes as well. The Uchiha's face crumpled in pain.

"Don't waste it because of me," he whispered.

"This whole situation gotten out of hand," replied Kakashi. Grimacing Obito tried to stop him but Kakashi threw the kunai, and all was silent.

No Yondaime.

"Is it broken?" asked Rin.

"Well, well, well, it appears the Konoha brats weren't crushed after all. At least not all of them," spat the rock nin from where he stood, atop a boulder nearby.

"Uh oh," whispered Rin drawing a kunai. She stepped in front of Obito. The rock nin leapt at them. Time slowed down as all of a sudden there was a golden flash of light and the singing of a sword as it swept through the air. The rock nin cried out in horror before he fell back dead.

The fourth Hokage wiped off the blade of his sword and then leapt down to join them.

"What happened here…?" he stopped when he saw Obito beneath the rock. A quiet curse slid between Arashi's lips. He knelt down beside Obito as the other two stood back. Rin's eyes were filling with tears again.

"Hey kid, can you still hear me?" asked Arashi softly. Obito grimaced. "I'll take that as a yes, just hang in there a minute," he said standing up. And leaning back he dealt a powerful kick to the boulder. It shattered like glass before the Hokage's kick. The sudden release of pressure caused Obito to cry out. Arashi lifted him up. "Hang on," he warned the other two, and in a flash they were gone.

"Hey…Rin, wake up, it's just a dream,"

Rin sat up with a start to find herself on Kakashi's couch. And as she sat up she slammed her head into Obito's who was leaning over her.

"Ow," said Obito rubbing his forehead. Rin let out a sigh of relief. He was alive. Sometimes she wished she would stop reliving that terrible day.

"Bout time," said Kakashi who was sitting across the rug eating a sandwich. Rin closed her eyes and sank back against the couch. And then she remembered precisely why she was on Kakashi's couch. Rin's cheeks turned dark red with utter embarrassment.

"Are you feeling okay?" asked Obito who sat cross-legged on Kakashi's coffee table, looking at her with that piercing green eye of his.

She was a thin, sickly nin. She had called to Rin as she had been leaving the hospital that night.

"You, you're the friend of that boy who was crushed," she had coughed. Rin nodded wondering what the lady was aiming at.

"The one, missing the eye," she had continued. Rin felt the wave of tears rising in her eyes again, she managed a shaky nod.

"Give him one of mine," the girl said from where she lay in bed.

"What?" Rin asked not sure she had heard the woman right.

"Give him one of mine," she repeated in a strained voice. "I'm dying," she continued. "He might as well have it, I'm not gonna need it."

Rin wasn't so sure she could accept an offer like that. "A catch?" she asked. The woman looked embarrassed.

"I…-hack- don't have anyone, and if it isn't too much trouble, could you stay here with me when I go?"

Rin had almost grimaced, before realizing the woman was offering her eye for Obito.

"Deal," Rin said, and the fates were sealed.

Now Rin could see that woman's piercing green eye looking back at her, except now lit by the overly excitable Uchiha's fire. He was looking at her pecularly.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" he asked cocking his head to one side. "It's like I've grown a second head or something,"

"That wouldn't surprise me," said Kakashi smirking beneath his mask. Rin faked a smile, pushing away the thoughts beginning to cloud her mind.

"No, no, I'm fine," she assured them.

"That is very good, that you are feeling fine," said a voice and the three turned to none other than… Gai Maito.

You know its gonna get weird when Gai shows up...
