Huh, more people understood than I expected, cool shit. Enjoy.

Obito Flipped backwards over a swipe from an Ursa's claw only to land and immediately duck under a set of fangs that were aimed for his throat. He made no attempt to strike back at the beasts that surrounded him, there were over a dozen and he'd been doing nothing but dodging and evading their attacks for the last two hours. He was practicing his evasion without using Kamui or his sharingan. These beasts weren't the best training partners for this type of training, they each only had a very limited range of attacks.

After the first ten minutes he'd had all their patterns and move set memorized perfectly, what they did have going for them however was that they didn't seem to get tired or give up. He'd long since begun to sweat, this training wasn't really straining or anything, it was more for sharpening his instincts and muscle memory than anything else. Still he could feel the pleasing burn in his muscles one got when getting good exercise.

His concentration was broken for only a moment as he heard a ringing from his pocket, this allowed one of the beowulves to graze his arm. It wasn't enough to even cause the skin to rise let alone draw blood, still he felt a touch of irritation at the ending of his untouched streak.

Leaping up into the air he flipped through several familiar hand signs before taking a deep breath. "Fireball Jutsu!" He began spewing an inferno down at the monsters below. He wasn't finished however as he raised his prosthetic arm and pointed his palm at the fire. A moment later a green dust crystal was shot from it into the flames, the effect was sudden and clear. The fire exploded outwards with the heat intensifying greatly, he could hear the beasts within howling as they were reduced to cinders. He smiled widely at his new arm as he landed, while it wasn't as fast as his real arm he'd found he could outfit it with hidden traps and weapons much like the puppets of Suna. Plus with dust, in this case wind dust, he could enhance the strength of his existing jutsu to take them to a greater level.

Grabbing the scroll from his pocket he raised it to his ear, he didn't bother checking the caller ID as only two people actually had his number, Pyrrha and her mother. "Yo."

"Hey, what are you doing right now?" Pyrrha asked from the other side of the call.

Looking over his shoulder Obito noted the fire was still burning. "Just some light training." He responded. "What's up?"

"Well, me and my mom just got some really great news so we were gonna go out to celebrate, I was hoping you'd join us." She told him.

One of the larger Ursa pulled itself out of the fire, the lower half of it's body was completely burned away, it's throat was so scorched it couldn't even growl. Walking over to it Obito raised his arm and a wooden spear came out of his wrist. Turning it downwards he quickly impaled the creature through the top of the head. "Sure, just let me clean up a bit and send me the address."

"Alright, see you in a bit." The call quickly ended.

Watching the fire finally begin to die down Obito pocketed the scroll and activated Kamui, within a few moments he was in his pocket dimension. Grabbing some soap and clean clothes he teleported to a river he often used and quickly cleaned himself. After redressing he checked his scroll and saw the message waiting for him, the address. Returning to his dimension he dropped off his dirty clothes and soap before teleporting to Argus, from there he hailed a cab giving them the address. One of the very few limits to Kamui was the fact that he could only go places he'd knew about with it. If he were to try and go somewhere he wasn't sure of the exact location of he was likely to end up in the middle of nowhere.

It was similar to pointing to a place on a map, if you know where your going then you're all good otherwise you were basically throwing a dart while blindfolded. Leaning his head back he closed his eyes, he allowed his thoughts to take hold.

It had been nearly three years since coming to Remnant, his skills and strength had grown greatly in that time. He was sixteen years old, he'd be seventeen in only a few months. Kakashi's birthday was closing in as well, Obito grit his teeth at the thought. He was confident in his strength, he believed he was strong enough to achieve his goal.

He had already decided that he'd be leaving to find his former teammate, that would be a challenge in and of itself. Once he'd done it and this hell was finally over he'd return to Argus, he'd then decide what he'd do from there.

"Hey kid, we're here." He opened his eye and saw the driver looking at him. "That'll be twenty six lien."

Nodding Obito handed him the money and stepped out of the cab. Standing on the side walk he looked up at the restaurant, it was fancier than any he'd been to before, likely the nicest in town. He'd definitely look out of place in his currently outfit, his prosthetic was visible thought wrapped in bandages and the sleeve the would hide it was torn off.

Shrugging he pushed open the door and entered, inside he was met by a man standing behind a podium. "Can I help you sir?" He asked.

Obito met his eyes with his one. "I'm here to meet someone." He responded.

"Do you have the reservation name?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Should be under Nikos." He answered.

The man hummed to himself. "Just a moment sir." The man then turned around and walked into the back, only a minute later the man returned. "My apologies for the wait Mr. Uchiha, right this way."

The man then lead Obito back into the dining area where he quickly spotted Pyrrha and her mother, it wasn't hard as they were the only ones with crimson red locks. They both smiled as he approached. "Obito." Naomi smiled as he took a seat at the table.

"Hey guys, fancy place. If I'd know I'd have worn my fancy eyepatch." He joked earning a laugh from Pyrrha. "So what's this good news you mentioned?" He asked the girl.

Pyrrha's face lit up a bit as she pulled out a piece of paper. "I got accepted to Beacon with a full scholarship." She said excitedly.

Obito chuckled. "Wasn't that already a given? You're the three time Mistral regional champion, and by the end of the year you'll be the four time champion. Every school on Remnant would kill to have you." He said looking at the paper.

"Don't we know it." Naomi nodded in agreement. "We've received requests from everyone but Pyrrha has had her heart set on Beacon for years." She said taking a sip of wine.

"Beacon, Beacon." Obito held his chin lightly. "That's the one in Vale right?"

"Yeah, it's also considered the best in the world, I can't wait to go next year." Pyrrha said beaming excitedly.

"That happy to be leaving me and your mom here in Atlas huh?" He smirked.

Pyrrha's smile shifted into a look of horror in an instant. "What no! It's not like that. I'd love to have you come along but Vale is so far. I mean we'll still talk on the scroll all the time, and I'll visit."

"Pyrrha relax, I'm only kidding." Obito raised his hand stopping her sputtering. "To be honest, I'm gonna be heading out soon myself. I'll be traveling for a while myself." He told her earning a look of surprise from the two women.

"Where will you be going?" Naomi asked.

"Not sure yet, but I'll be back. Can't say when, but I will." As he said this he gained a look of determination in his eyes. "We can make it a race, will you become a huntress before I do what I need to do, or will I." He chuckled.

"What does the winner get?" Pyrrha asked curiously.

Obito stopped and thought about that. "One wish."

Patch

Kakashi took a deep breath of the cold air of his apartment, it was his day off and he couldn't bring himself to actually do anything. Normally he'd be out doing some training, but instead he could work up the motivation. He'd been like this for weeks, he wasn't stupid enough to not know that it was because he hadn't seen or spoken to Yang in that time. Not since the night he rejected her confession.

A knock on his door caused his to turn his head, with a grunt he pushed himself out of bed. Walking over to the door he pulled it open. "Yo." He said looking out.

"Hey kid, we need to talk." Qrow stood in his door way, behind him was a clearly pissed Taiyang.

"I thought you were off on a long term mission." Kakashi said to the older man.

"I'm in town visiting." Qrow responded stepping passed the teen and into his apartment, Taiyang doing the same right after. Walking over to Kakashi's couch and dropped down onto it while Tai just stood leaning against the counter of his kitchen.

Kakashi sighed and closed his door before sitting down on the recliner in the corner. "What's up?" He asked already knowing the purpose for their visit.

"What did you do to my daughter." Tai growled while glaring at him.

Kakashi looked up at the angry man. "I broke her heart, at least I'm guessing."

Qrow held up his hand to stop his best friend from blowing up on the teen. "Yang has been in a slump ever since the BBQ, she hasn't been spending time with her friends, her grades are dropping. She's refused to talk about what happened, so explain to us what did happen." Qrow told the boy.

Kakashi rubbed the side of his head. "After she pulled me from the poker game she confessed her feelings to me." He explained tiredly. "She asked me to be her boyfriend, I said no and left. That's all."

Qrow tilted his head. "Why?"

"I just don't feel that way about her." He responded.

"BULLSHIT!" Tai shouted slamming his hand down on the counter putting a hole in it. "I've seen the way you two looked at each other, I was a teenager to and I know my little girl. I know how beautiful she is, as her father it has caused me no end of stress knowing that every guy out there wants a piece of her, the only reason I allowed you and her to get as close to one another as it did was because I could tell she really liked you and you weren't constantly drooling over her like her classmates at Signal." Tai stomped over to the boy until he was standing in front of him. "When you two spoke you always looked her in her eyes and you treated her with respect, not out of fear because you're a civilian and she's a huntress, but real respect as a person. So why would you devastate her like that?!" He demanded.

Kakashi maintained eye contact with the man the entire time he spoke. "I'm sorry Mr. Xiao Long, but that's none of your business." He said in a calm deadpan voice.

Tai then felt something snap inside. "YOU LITTLE SHIT!" He yelled as he cocked back his fist.

"TAI!" Qrow was on his feet and holding the fist back, he continued to hold the limb back for several seconds until he felt the mans muscles relax. Then he turned his eyes to Kakashi who didn't appeared afraid at all of the full grown huntsmen about to let loose on him. The pair stared at one another for nearly a minute in silence. "Kakashi... does it have anything to do with Obito?" The older man asked causing the teen to break eye contact and look to the floor. "I understand, come on Tai."

"Qrow." Tai tried to pull away.

"Tai... come on." Qrow said again.

Giving one last look to Kakashi, Tai nodded and followed his friend out. It wasn't until they were half way back home that Qrow spoke up. "That kid, he really does care about Yang." Qrow said pulling out his flask. "Did you see how he looked?"

Tai grunted. "Yeah, he's lost wait and his skin is paler than before. Not eating or going outside often, he depressed. Why would he do that to himself and to Yang?" He asked still extremely angry.

"He protecting her." Qrow said taking a swing before offering it to Tai who accepted. "He really believes that other kid, Obito, is coming for him. And he expects to die when he does he doesn't want to destroy Yang." Tai listened as he drank from the flask as well.

What neither man noticed was the Raven listening in from above.

Later

Kakashi remained sitting in his recliner, it had been several hours since the two men had left and he couldn't get Yang out of his head. Everything Tai had said was absolutely correct, he did care about Yang. She was the most beautiful girl he'd ever met and he respected the hell out of her. That however didn't change the when Obito came for him he would likely die and the pain she's feeling now would be nothing compared to how she'd feel if he allowed them to grow even closer. He wouldn't just build a strong bond then up and die on her, he refused to be that selfish, selfish like his father.

As his thoughts drifted to his late father he heard another knock at his door, probably Qrow again. Getting up he walked over to the door and began pulling it open only for his instincts to begin screaming at him to move. Jumping backwards he narrowly avoided a blade that had cut through his door and nearly took his head off. He was forced to jump back again to dodge a thrust this time and land on his wall where he stuck with his chakra. He whipped out a kunai and readied himself.

"Kakashi Hatake." His attacker, a woman with long black hair stepped into his apartment. She wore mostly black and red with a large white mask, in her hand was a long katana. "I believe you and I have business."

Haven't had a fight in a while, also we're getting close to canon now. Leave me a review and tell me what you all think. LATER.
