Wow I feel like I need to explain a little… For those that didn't catch it... I'm one of those people the sincerely believe Tobi is Obito. There might not be a lot of hints but for me I can see the possibility. For those that reviewed I want to thank you because it made me want to update ASAP. I also wanted to note that in Chapter1, Sakura WAS going to ask Kakashi if he knew Tobi but she decided against it because of obvious reason (cough cough akatsuki cough cough).

OMG THERES A TOBI SLOT… I immediately moved my fic to sakuxtobi slot.

Tobi sat down on the stone and laid back to stare at the sky. He was waiting for Deidara to come back again from their latest mission. Deidara was probably right now killing their target. He had told Tobi he could take care of the target himself and even when Tobi had begged to come and be a good boy, his sempai still had said no. Tobi hated being alone. Being alone let him think about everything and normally when he would think it would bring him unwanted memories. But now when he had time to think he would think of the pretty flower he had meet only a week ago. He knew it was unlikely he would ever see her again but the thought of finding her again was appealing. She had entertained him with her fiery temper and her soft side for the people she cared for. A hand crossed the view he had on the sky. He turned his head to the left so he could look at his sempai. Who at the moment looked quiet furious.

"Tobi I called your name 5 times… don't tell me you went asleep again. Don't you know that's dangerous lying around like that? Someone could have killed you!" Tobi sat up and stared at his Sempai.

"Oh Deidara-Sempai you know that Tobi can't die that easily." Deidara's eye twitched.

"Tobi I'm about to show you why I think art is a bang, yeah." Deidara's hand twitched towards his bag of clay and Tobi scampered up and backed up with his hands up to defend his head.

"Sempai!! Please don't hurt Tobi with exploding birdies again!! Tobi promises to be a good boy. A good boy!" He took a peak at Deidara from behind his arms that were his temporary shield. Deidara was stomping away. Tobi sighed with relief when he realized he was once again safe.

"Deidara-Sempai? Do we have any other missions coming up?" Tobi followed his Sempai to there latest hideout. Deidara sighed and scratched his head trying to recall any other missions that week.

"We only have to kill some guy in rock… why do you want to know, yeah?" Deidara stopped and looked at Tobi suspiciously. Tobi scratched his head.

"Can you do it by yourself…? Tobi wants to see his pretty flower." Deidara looked at him again like he was insane.

"You want to go see a flower… your flower?" Tobi shook his head back and forth and his hands in front of him.

"Well it's not actually Tobi's flower. Just Tobi wants to see how its doing. So will Deidara-Sempai let Tobi go see?" Deidara was quiet for a moment looking at Tobi.

"No."

"BUT SEMPAI!! TOBI MISSES THE PRETTY FLOWER!!"

"You can see the stupid flower on your own free time... we have a mission to get over with and we only have 4 days to get it done… now lets go!"

"Ok Deidara-Sempai" Tobi trudged behind him like a sad puppy. Deidara rolled his eyes sometimes he swore that Tobi was only 13 at times.

"Tobi stop acting like a baby and get moving… It's just a stupid flower… do you want me to find it and explode it with one of my clay birds!?" Tobi straightened up and walked faster.

"Tobi will be a good boy... Deidara-Sempai doesn't need to explode the pretty flower at all."

"Dear God you're annoying sometimes..." Deidara muttered.

Tobi looked back up at the sky. 'Maybe another time flower-chan but Tobi is a little busy so don't forget about Tobi yet.' He thought as he walked next to his sempai.

(technically two days later)

Sakura fell down on the grass panting. It had been a week and two days since she last saw Tobi and at times she wondered if she would actually ever see him again. She had gone back to the spot a couple of times…. about five times to be precise but no such luck in seeing him. Right now her team consisting of Kakashi, Yamato, Naruto, Sai, and her, had been training hard core today. She watched as Naruto did what he called 'cool down exercises'. This consisted of him basically fighting someone with only taijutsu move. Right now he was sparing with Sai. Yamato had gone home and Kakashi was sitting on a tree branch right above her. She pulled her self up from the ground and swung up on his branch. She sat down a couple of feet away. Watching as her feet dangled above Naruto and Sai.

"Kakashi-Sensei?" She needed to ask him now… it had been bugging her for the past week.

"Hm?" He acted like he wasn't paying attention but she knew he was all ears.

"Did you ever give that speech to anyone else besides team 7?" He looked up at her and his eye creased to show he was smiling.

"Yeah a couple people… but only those I felt needed to know it. Why do you ask Sakura?" She starred at him.

"I met someone outside the village that said the same exact thing you did…and it was almost word for word. I was just thinking that maybe he might have heard it from you but I doubt it cause he is not from here…" Kakashi acted like he was still reading his book but she knew he was thinking.

"I doubt he heard it from anyone else outside the village…" She tilted her head and stared at him.

"Whys that?" He was quiet for a moment.

"Because the person that said it to me is dead." A silent breeze went between them. She could hear the forbiddaness behind his voice. It clearly stated don't ask me anything else… but her interest was peaked and she couldn't help but want to know more about her Sensei and his past. She sighed and turned her head away knowing this was forbidden territory.

"Maybe it was just a coincidence that he said it." She shrugged but in the back of her mind she couldn't help but feel different. Kakashi shrugged at the statement as well.

"But Sakura I must ask… why were you outside the village?" She looked back at her sensei with a shocked look but it turned back to a smile.

"I needed to get out a little and I think Tsunade knew that so she had me go get some plants she needed and I found a small clearing and sat down for a moment of rest."

So it wasn't all true… Tsunade had sent her out to go find a plant but Sakura had found out it didn't exist in that part of the woods and she had to go all the way on the other side of Konoha so she had decided to "rest" or more like cry her eyes out because she was depressed and that was how Tobi came upon her.

"So you stopped for a small rest and this stranger came up to you… was he a ninja? Sakura I know you're a capable ninja but you really you shouldn't talk to strangers." Sakura's face turned bright red knowing he was right.

"Don't worry Kakashi… I don't think he would have hurt me. He reminded me of Naruto WAY to much."

"Did you find out his name? He could have been a missing name."

She wanted to wince at how on top he was about this. 'Why Sensei, his name is Tobi… and why yes he is a missing nin and he guess what! He is in akatsuki too!! Look sensei… your student is making friends with akatsuki! Maybe we can ask them over and we can have tea and cookies together!' She made a slight face at her sarcastic thoughts. But of course she said

"Err… I didn't actually ask for his name... but he had blue hair… with a tan... he was taller then you… and had dark brown eyes." She said making up the best fake description she could. 'This should throw you into a good loop Kakashi-sensei…. Dear god I'm helping a missing nin… I can't believe myself. I'm sorry Kakashi… Just I owe Tobi just this once.'

Sakura jumped off the tree in the middle of her companions and stopped them.

"Lets go get some ramen or something... it can be Kakashi-Sensei's treat" She smiled evilly towards him. He felt sweat drop go down his neck. She was sneaky. There was a poof behind them and they turned to see one of the Hokage's assistants.

"Hokage-Sama wishes to see you immediately." He said and then poofed away.

They looked at each other and nodded there heads and with that they made the sign and poofed themselves to the Hokage office.

Tobi sighed as he finished off the last 3 ninjas that were in the way off his target. He stomped up to the man and grabbed his collar and put the kunai to his neck and huffed to himself.

"Because of you, target-san, Deidara-Sempai said Tobi couldn't see pretty flower… So Tobi had to make this fast… but nooooo target-san had to be a pain in Tobi's rear end and have people protect target-san from Tobi, now Tobi isn't happy because it will take longer to see flower-chan!" Tobi killed the man fast and threw him on the ground. Tobi sighed and rubbed the back of his head and knelled down.

"Listen target-san, Tobi is sorry that he killed you in anger. Tobi knows target-san probably didn't mean to take time away from Tobi seeing flower-chan…but now you know that you should never make Tobi get impatient." He got back up and headed to where Deidara had told him to meet after he had got done with the target. He rushed there and saw Deidara.

"Deidara-Sempai! Deidara-Sempai! Can Tobi go now to see the pretty flower?"

Deidara huffed.

"Like I care but first we have to report to head quarters and see if we have to do anything else."

"AWW but that will take three days to get there…." Tobi whined. He never had patience and he was about at his limit.

"FINE we will ride my birds there so that it will only take one day. Now will you shut up and stop whining!?" Tobi nodded his head excitedly.

"Yes! Tobi will be a good boy all the way there!"

Tsunade stared at the team before her. All of team 7 was in her office plus Yamato.

"Your mission is to head towards a small village south of here in the fire country. It is only a day trip. Actually if you hurry up it should only take you half the day to get it there and pick up an important item for me… I only trust your team to get this to me safely. The mission details are in the scrolls. You head out tomorrow. Good luck"

"Hai!" Everyone said in unison.

WOOT this took me only one whole day to write! I'm on a roll. I updated earlier today my other fic (the plan) and now this. LIKE I SAID A ROLL!! Woot.

I love writing Tobi. I have so much fun with his character.

Please review. Your reviews are what inspired me to update so fast…. At least with this fic. Lol
