Over 130 reviews in a week's time.. I would like to have a 5 second gloat…. Ok and its done
I was asked by a reviewer if I would make a lemon in this story at some point… wow Hahaha I don't know. I would hate to make a lemon and push my younger crowd or the people who don't read lemons for there own reasons away. I will consider making a one shot lemon for TobixSakura if it would appease everyone. :D
On a random note, my kakashixsakura fetish is back…. I guess I wouldn't call it a fetish just like an itch I need to scratch once in a while. Like yesterday instead of finishing this chapter I was busy reading kakashixsakura up to 4 o clock in the morning hahah... it was a long story...
"Kakashi?" she asked again to get him out of his own little world. He put the chopsticks that he had been playing with down.
"Come with me, Sakura." By the sound of his voice she knew she had no way of getting out of this. He laid down money for both of them and went out. Naruto looked at them and Sakrua gave him a reasuring smile.
"We will be back later. ok?" Naruto nodded and went back to eating. She turned and caught up with Kakashi. She walked with him in silence, a small feeling of dread seeping into her stomach with every step she took. There was something in the atmosphere back in ramen stand when she asked that had changed and made her feel cold, like she was asking something that was dark and hidden, never spoken of. They walked slowly towards their unknown destination. As they walked farther, Sakura started to notice where they were heading towards. The memorial stone. She kept quiet and stopped next to him when he stopped a foot away from it and starred at the rock. A small wnd blew past them in their moment of silence.
"It struck me odd when you first asked me about my favorite quote, then now to ask me about someone who had gone missing over 15 years ago, and/or died in a rock slide. Sakura, I'm good at looking underneath, the underneath, but you have me stumped right now. Why would you want me to tell you about someone gone 15 years ago?" Sakura looked back at the memorial stone, the gears in her brain going.
"I need to find something out and I thought you would have the answers." She said trying to be as discrete as possible.
"Sakura, do you know why I have the sharingan?" He asked. Sakura nodded, happy she knew something about her teacher.
"Yep, I read your file that your team mate, who was an Uchiha, gave you his left eye to replace yours and the person who did the procedure was a medic-nin named Rin." She said trying to remember if there was anything she left out.
"His name was Obito."
"Excuse me?" Sakura said not catching on to what he was talking about.
"His name was Obito Uchiha; he is the one who gave me this left eye." His voice was soft and he pointed at the name in the stone, he had memorized in his head where it was. She leaned closely at the name to get a better look at it and memorized it for later thoughts. She leaned back and looked at Kakashi.
"Kakashi-Sensei, I still don't get what your trying to tell me." Kakashi sighed knowing he had to explain it.
"Obito Uchiha was the person who told me my favorite quote; he died hours later after telling it to me. It really changed my life, he changed my life." Sakura nodded her head, understanding this was hard for her Sensei to talk about. Now she knew where the quote came from.
"Obito must have been really wise." She said as a thought. Kakashi grinned under his mask.
"Actually that was the wisest thing he ever said. The first and the last time..." He stopped sadly. Sakura starred at him in shock. If Tobi was from here, he couldn't have gotten it from Obito if that time was the first and last time Obito ever said it.
"Wait Sensei, I don't get it. What does Obito have to do with my question; if he is dead, then he is somewhere in Konoha buried… right? She asked hesitantly. Kakashi shook his head in disagreement.
"Sakura, we could never recover his body. That day our teammate Rin was captured and he went after her, and it might of took me awhile but after some thought about what he told me, I turned my butt around to go find them. When I got there I saved Obito but as we fought one of the two guys, my left eye got cut, it was useless from then on, and Obito? Well he gained his sharingan that day. After defeating the guy we went to save Rin, but the guy had a few tricks up his sleeve and decided to make the cave collapse. We were almost out when I got hit in the head by a rock on my blind side and collapsed. Obito saw a huge rock about to fall on me. He ran and pushed me out of the way." Kakashi paused and was quiet. Sakura felt like her eyes couldn't widen any more then they were right now.
"Wha... What happened to him, Kakashi-Sensei?" She asked still needing to know, to hear it. Kakashi stuffed his hands in his pocket.
"The rock crushed his whole right side. He was pinned under it and there was no way I could move that rock. He knew he was going to die. So he told me because he hadn't given me a present for my jounin celebration that his present to me was his sharigain. The rest is easy to fill in. I got it, whipped the guys butt who did that to him and we got surrounded by the back up and our sensei, the fourth, saved me and Rin in the nic of time. More rocks had collapsed over Obito to burry him forever. We never got to get his body because it was enemy territory. That's the end really." Sakura starred at Obito name. Things were still registering in her brain… Obito couldn't be Tobi; there is no way someone could survive what happened, if that happened to them. She nodded her head and turned away.
"Thank you, Kakashi-Sensei. You helped me out." His hand stopped her before she could leave.
"Why did you need to know about the guy dieing in a rock slide related incident?" He asked his suspicion at full height. She rubbed her arm absent mindedly and sighed.
"I'm not completely sure why I want to know. Just some side research that I now see can't be true. Sorry Kakashi-Sensei, but it is restricted information I can't give you. Let's just say curiosity got to me." She said, here I go lying again, now to someone who just told me their own hidden pain. She felt bad but right now she couldn't tell Kakashi anything, maybe never. Right now she felt horrible for lying to Tobi; it wasn't like she was going to tell him if she found anything out. She sighed and ran a hand through the back of her hair. She was going to have to tell him she broke her promise or guilt would get to her.
"Curiosity killed the cat you know." Kakashi said teasingly.
"Do you think it was from guilt?" She asked back. Kakashi shrugged.
"Depends on what the cat was curious about." He replied back. Then it hit her could maybe trust Kakashi in a sense.
"The cat was curious about her friend, a uh… mouse, and thought a wise, old dog would know something." Kakashi stared at her and played along again.
"What answer is the cat looking for the mouse?"
"Well the mouse actually asked her not to look for it, but the cat got something in her head and couldn't get it out and thought that if maybe she found the answer, even if it's not the answer she hopes for that she would be content with it." Kakashi nodded and rubbed his chin.
"So it has something to do with the mouse's past?" He asked Sakura nodded.
"Yeah, and the curiosity this stupid cat has about him is probably going to kill her, since the cat is at a dead end, but the cat thanks the wise old dog for trying to help." Kakashi nodded and Sakura went on her way. Ok so, she had given a little away but she either helped ease Kakashi's suspicions or triple them. Hopefully it was the first one and not the second.
Deidara made a face at his partner who had just come back from god knows where. They were at there current hide out. It was a small abandon house they had found near a stream closer to Sound. Well actually it wasn't actually abandoned but once Deidara got rid of the old man living there, and Tobi apologized for Deidara's rudeness, Deidara had christened the place abandoned.
"Where the hell have you been?" Tobi asked annoyed with his partner.
"Tobi went to go find his pretty flower." He said happily. Deidara couldn't believe how obsessed he was over a stupid flower.
"Tobi, how many stupid flowers are in this freaking world? Tons, right? So what is so special about this flower from the rest? Wait even better what kind flower is it, if you even know what kind of flower it is…" He said looking at his partner in skeptical manner.
"Oh Tobi knows what kind of flower it is. It's a Sakura!" Deidara smacked his partner over the head as hard as he could.
"Sakura's can be found all over the place and they grow with many others! PLURAL! That means you need to call them pretty flowers. Retard" Deidara said and messed with his clay but stopped when a thought hit him.
"You don't mean real flowers do you Tobi? It's a person, no better yet a girl!" Deidara said stomping up to Tobi who was tacking precocious steps back from his partner.
"No! It's a flower! Tobi swears! Tobi doesn't know if it's a Sakura really… it just looked like a Sakura… ya know?" Deidara stopped and looked at his partner suspiciously. Tobi thanked god once again for his mask. He wasn't one for lying but it was either that or Deidara hunt her down and kill her. He liked the idea of an intact Sakura better then one missing limbs. Deidara nodded and went to his room and slammed the door. Tobi sighed in relief. Sakura was once again safe from Deidara wrath. Tobi headed straight to his room and laid down makeshift bed. Deidara had taken the only bed in the house forcing Tobi to sleep on the ground with a couple blankets to lie on and an old icky pillow.
Sakura had gotten him thinking about his past. The one he tried not to remember, remembering would only cause problems for everyone. Tobi didn't want to unnecessary trouble for others. But he couldn't deny that some times he wished for a place to call home. Maybe a nice girl who could handle him because Tobi knew he could be handful at times. Have a nice place and both of them could be ninjas. She would take care of him when he got injured or sick. A girl who would love him even if they knew what was behind his mask and under his akatsuki cloak, the type that would look at his face smile and say they didn't mind and wouldn't want to change him. Course he had some issues when it came to letting people see his face so he would obviously have to trust and/or love that person to let them see his face. His mind went back to Sakura and he sighed contently. She had kissed him today which normally he wouldn't let anyone get that close to his face but he was so shocked by her actions. Ok so he more so liked the actions then anything. She was a pretty girl, a really pretty girl. Who was nice, and even said she wouldn't want to change him, she accepted who he was and what he did and she was skilled and she was a medic-nin. Dear god, Tobi's perfect women was turning out to be almost like Sakura. But the thought didn't really bug him. Tobi did like her and liked being around her. Tobi was falling for the 'enemy' and he didn't give a fly fuck what others would think, but of course he had to be considerate of Sakura and would never press his feelings on her because Tobi was a good boy. He started to fall asleep slowly as his eyes started to close a picture of her smiling face past his mind and with another content sigh he fell asleep.
Deidara peeked into Tobi's room to ask the retard if he wanted something to eat but saw the Tobi was cuddled up to his pillow like it was a teddy bear snoring loudly. Deidara rolled his eyes making a mental note to keep an eye on Tobi because of his strange behavior.
