Question 1: Does anyone really notice Sakura in here? I've been wondering if you guys just skip to the Tobi parts… lol. Sakura deserves love too Hahaha.

Oh an answer to a question from a couple reviewers… I won't be making a deixtobi fic... nor making a thing between them in this story. I'm not a yoai fan… and I can only put them in a love/hate friendship sort of way but you can perceive my writing ANYWAY you want :D So if you want you could pretend they use to have a thing?

Like i said before in the last chapter (just in case you didnt catch it) I will try to update everyday of the week except saturday and sunday:)


One week went by for Tobi way to slow for his liking. Of course he had business to keep himself occupied for a while, but the pinked haired girl he had nicknamed Flower-chan was always floating around in the back of his head. Which wasn't good on his missions when he would get impatient or annoy and kill the new 'target-sans' in anger or frustration. But since he was Tobi, he would quickly apologize for being rude and go on to the next. So far he had counted that 5 target-sans out of the 7 targets he had killed were killed in anger. The reason for his frustrated moments always came back to the thought of Flower-chan and the 'fur ball'- as he now referred Naruto as the fur ball- being together. He made the sign and with a poof he disappeared to the spot. When he reappeared at the meeting place he realized she wasn't there. 'Uh-oh Tobi might have been late.' So ok, he was 30 minutes late but he was hoping she would wait for him. He heard movement and leapt up into the tree and hid his presence waiting for the intruder, but when he saw pink hair and her regular training attire he jumped down next to the girl who was now lying on her stomach on the ground, panting. She looked up and grinned.

"Sorry Tobi for being late!" She sat up but laid back down to look up at the sky. "I had to make an excuse about leaving training early. Kakashi likes to show up late but he showed up even later and we had to make up for his lateness." She smiled up at him. He sat down next to her and shrugged.

"Tobi just got here to be honest. Tobi was 30 minutes late on accident. Tobi sorry." Sakura shrugged and smiled at him again.

"It fine it wasn't like I was on time too. We just need to figure out a way to meet each other at the right times." It was quiet for a second then Sakura sat up and smiled at him. "I know we can use bird summoning. So when you come here you can send me a message and if I send it back it with nothing on it but my clan symbol, it means I'm on my way. If I write back it means I'm not coming or it might not be me and if it comes back to you, then I'm not there. There then that means we can see each other maybe more often.

"What if Tobi can't come?" Tobi asked.

"Well let's make this our day as a fall back but just send me the message if you can meet me. I mean you're probably really busy and I have hospital duty when ever Hokage feels it necessary and other things. Oh, but I can meet you at night. It might be a little harder but I know I can." He could tell she was all excited about this. It made him grin to himself. "So what do you think?"

"Tobi thinks Flower-Chan's idea is awesome!" He said with a thumbs up. She nodded and relaxed against the ground.

"So how was your week Tobi?" Sakura asked politely.

"Tobi's week sucked! How about yours?" He asked cheerfully. She turned at him and looked at him like he was crazy. She started to laugh.

"How can you say that so happy? My week also sucked, but why did yours suck?"

"Tobi week sucked because he killed five target-sans angrily, because Tobi was mad." Tobi crossed his arms and turned away. Sakura got up and peaked around to look at his masked face.

"Why were you mad?" She asked with a worried look on her face.

"Because Flower-chan didn't tell Tobi she was dating 'fur ball' and now Tobi is late in saying congratulations." He turned his face away again. She sat there in total confusion.

"Fur ball?" she asked, and then realization hit her. "Do you mean Naruto?" Tobi nodded but still refused to look at her. She giggled and he fumed to himself feeling embarrassed.

"Tobi doest think that this is funny. Tobi feels like Sakura-chan should tell Tobi stuff like this." She smiled and got in his line of vision.

"Ok fine. My name is Sakura Haruno, I'm 16 years old, I have lived in Konoha my whole life. My favorite colors are red, white and even green. I don't care for the color pink to much… something about having pink hair since you were born makes you hate the color.

I was born march 28, both my parents are alive but I moved out. I'm the Hokage's apprentice, I get annoyed easily and I pack a hard hit…. Oh and" She leaned closer so he couldn't look away. "I'm single and I have no interest in Naruto Uzamaki. Anything you would like to know?" She said light heartedly.

"Pink is your natural hair color?" Tobi asked obliviously, picking up a strand examining it. Sakura looked at him dead pan and brushed his finger off her hair.

"Yes it is." She said "So why don't you tell me about you?" Tobi scratched his head.

"Well, uh, what do you want to know about Tobi?" Sakura rolled her eyes. Typical guy.

"Uh, how about you tell me your full name?"

"Uh I don't know. Tobi is just Tobi. Tobi liked the name and just been called himself Tobi ever since."

"What do you mean? Don't you have a family or anyone who took care of you?"

"Tobi really doesn't know. Zetsu-Sempai said he found Tobi and that Tobi had been crushed by rocks and he had taken me out and instead of eating Tobi, he fixed Tobi up because he thought Tobi could be useful and because Tobi wasn't dead either. Tobi was in a coma for 5 years and when Tobi woke up he was put straight into training. Zetsu used Tobi as a subordinate and Tobi decided his name should be Tobi's. Tobi doesn't really remember his past, nor does Tobi want to find out about it because Tobi moved on and is living for today and not yesterday. That's why Tobi wears this mask…. Because Tobi doesn't want anyone else to see what Tobi face looks like because of the rocks." Sakura looked extremely sad. "What's wrong Sakura-chan?"

"Wow, that's extremely sad. You have had it so tough." She jumped and hugged him tightly her head rested on his neck and Tobi sat there for a moment before he wrapped his arms around Sakura to hug her back.

"Its alright Tobi doesn't let it get to him. Tobi likes his life and anyways we probably wouldn't have met if Tobi wasn't the way Tobi is." She giggled and pulled back to reveal a tear sliding down her cheek. She punched his arm lightly then rubbed her tear away.

"You goofball… I wouldn't change you either." She said as an afterthought and hugged him again, she moved up and placed a kiss on his his temple, it was teally the only that wasnt covered by his mask and pulled back.

"Since I can't kiss your cheek, so your forehead will have to do, and kissing your mask would be awkward." She said with a pretty blush on her face. "I won't force you to let me see your face. I'm curious and I won't deny it… but I will wait till your ready even if its 10 years from now." 'Though I can't promise I won't try and peak' she thought as an after thought. She giggled to herself and laid back down again. Silence took over once again but it was a peaceful silence. Though tobi was still regestering she had kissed him.

"Tobi how old are you? Do you know?" She asked closing her eyes hoping she wasn't going over and boundaries or saying something that was affecting him negatively.

"Well Tobi's not sure but Tobi think that Tobi's around 27. Zetsu-Sempai said Tobi was about 14 or so when Tobi was found." Sakura relaxed a little.

'Well at least he is younger then Kakashi?' She thought to herself momentarily. She smiled.

"Tobi I might have to start pushing you in a wheelchair, because of your old age." she joked around.

"Tobi isn't THAT old. Tobi is still young for Tobi's age. Tobi isn't ancient like a lot of people." He said defensively. "You're more likely to age faster then Tobi." Sakura eye brow twitched.

"Excuse me?" She asked.

"Tobi is just saying that women age faster then men."

"Thanks Tobi." She said sarcastically.

"No problem!" Tobi said happily. "But Tobi thought since Sakura-chan was a medic-nin, that Sakura-chan would know this. Tobi thinks if you didn't know this, that maybe you shouldn't train with the hokage…. If she was such a great medic-nin she would have told you this stuff... since you know she is old and stuff… " Tobi said oblivious that Sakura looked completely annoyed. She smacked his head.

"Ow! Sakura-chan, what was that for?"

"Tobi! You shouldn't disrespect the hokage… even if you're a missing-nin!" She scolded half heartedly because the way he had tilted his head like a confused child made her want to squeal and hug him. 'Restraint Sakura…. RESTRAINT!!"

"Tobi doesn't think himself as a missing-nin… How can someone who can't remember their village be a missing-nin? Tobi can't remember squat about his village so Tobi can't be a missing-nin if he doesn't know which village he is betraying."

"Wow Tobi, that's actually pretty logical." She said thinking. She looked closely at the setting sun and sighed. "Tobi, I need to get back." Tobi got up with Sakura.

"Tobi will walk you as far as Tobi can." Sakura nodded and smiled as they walked together they talked about random things, how Deidara wasn't a morning person and how funny Naruto and Sai's fights could be. As they got closer to Konoha they decided to walk up a hill so they could look over Konoha.

Tobi was silent as he looked at the mountain with the Hokage's faces on it.

"See right that market right there? 3 streets over is where my house is. It's the one that is two stories high." Tobi made note where her house was and looked on.

"For some reason… Tobi keeps thinking there should only be 3 faces on that mountain… not 5." Sakura was quiet then it hit her.

"Tobi what if your village is actually Konoha." She said excitedly. "I could look in the records for anyone who went missing around 15 year time." Tobi grabbed her hand.

"Sakura-chan, please don't." Tobi begged. Sakura looked at him confused.

"Huh? Why?" She asked.

"Tobi likes not knowing where he is from. Then Tobi won't feel guilty for anything he might do against villages. Please Sakura-chan don't." She nodded slowly and leaned in a hugged him really quickly.

"Ok I won't." She whispered into his akatsuki cloak. He wrapped his arms around her for the third time again that day.

"Flower-chan, Tobi thinks your way to nice sometimes." He whispered near her ear. She smiled and pulled back.

"If you only knew the inner workings of my mind." She said half-jokingly.

"We all have our inner demons." He said in his serious tone again. Sakura looked at him in shock.

"Wow, Tobi I'm starting you are hiding under a childish act and are in fact an old wise man…. Want me to go get you a walker?" She joked.

"Tobi said he wasn't that old!" Tobi said back at Sakura. She giggled at him again.

"I better get going back. Thanks, I had a stressful week and this made everything better for me." She smiled at him, he nodded.

"See you next week, pretty flower!" He said, and then disappeared in a puff of smoke. A blush broke out on her face as she turned around to head back. She patted her cheeks as she walked. She walked into the village and signed in. She continued on her way when she ran into Naruto, quite literally.

"Naruto, you idiot, watch where your going!" She scolded but then stopped. "Let's go for ramen, I will pay." She offered kindly. Naruto blushed and got up.

"Like a date?" He asked excitedly.

"No, but I need some to be around someone who is cheeky." 'Like Tobi…'

"Oh, are you ok Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked worried about his friend.

"Yeah… Just don't want to be alone." She said. Naruto nodded and dragged her along with him to his favorite ramen stand. He blabbered about anything he had done that day and how Sai was once again being a jerk. When they got there, they sat down and ordered their food. They ate in a casual silence. Well actually, more like Sakura ate quietly, Naruto inhaled his food like a vacuum.

"Yo." A voice startled both of them and they jumped from the shock. Kakashi stood behind them with his eyes crinkled to show he was smiling. Sakura eye twitched and wondered if she could be fast enough to hit him a good one on his head. "Mind if I join you guys?" He asked politely. Naruto and Sakura nodded and Kakashi sat next to Sakura and ordered his meal. As he waited for his food he noticed Sakura was picking at her food in thought. He was about to ask if anything was wrong but she beat him to the punch.

"Kakashi-Sensei, was their any male ninjas ranging from the age 12 to 15 who went missing around 15 to 18 years ago?" Sakura asked carefully. She sent a quick apologetical thoguht to Tobi, but curiosity beat her to want to ask a man who was indeed alive then, and around Tobis age. Kakashi chuckled at her question.

"Sakura, you would have to look in the files for that. The range of that is too far and there are way too many ninjas that would go missing in that period of time." He said thoughtfully. Sakura sighed.

"How about any notably that was in a dangerous rock slide of some sort?" She watched as Kakashi hand froze. She didn't like the dark look in his only visible eye. Her heart thumped wildly at the thought that Kakashi might know who Tobi was. But from the look he had on his face, did she want to know?

"Kakashi?"
