Chapter 2: The two meet
I don't own naruto or its characters
Obito sighed to himself as he walked towards the hospital. He had no idea just how much his life could change over the course of a few days, a couple of days before he had been a simple jounin of Konoha, and now he was a guardian of a kid of his former clan. That was really one part of the change too, he had lived in a pretty simple house, which had enough stuff for him between missions. Now though, he had to get a house big enough for himself and another person. Meaning he had to find another place to live. It was troublesome, and really something he didn't want to do, but at least he was able to get some help with this problem. The Hokage, had helped him get the new house, because of the great assignment he had taken up. Then their was also the paperwork, and not just the adoption paper work, but the house paper work as well. It was very aggravating to have to sit and do paper work all day. Then to just add something to his problems came the fact that he knew he would get to do less missions from this point forward. He would have to be around Konoha to be able to help keep a watch on the young Uchiha. Still there was some irony, that he was looked to help out the future of the Uchiha, the reject who the Uchiha didn't even want around. Obito looked closely at the doors for a second letting his mind focus on the task in front of him. He had to meet his new responsibility, this was the day he was to wake up, or that is what he was told.
Obito walked down the long halls of the hospital, the bright sun shining in each of the windows. He counted the doors as he walked, he had been told the number of doors until he reached the room where the boy was staying. Obito stopped thinking how this was his last chance to turn back from his given assignement, wondering it was smart on his half to put this on his shoulder. He wondered if Kakashi was in this spot, if he would of taken the responsibility of such a person. Obito opened the door to see a young dark haired boy sitting on the his own bed. The boy's eyes quickly looked towards him, and measured him up.
"So, who are you," the boy asked looking him up and down closely, "You don't look like one of the medic's or one of the guards I have seen today."
"Well, I guess they have not told you about me, but let's say, I just want to be friends," Obito said with a small smile.
"Well, of course not, I have not heard anything, other then that, I am one of the last two Uchiha," Sasuke said with a bit of anger in his tone.
"Well, kid actually your one of the last three Uchiha."
"That is not possible, all the Uchiha were killed by my brother, I know, I was force to see it. You better go mister, before I get the guards to escort you out!"
"Oh, sorry, I should of introduced myself before, I am Uchiha Obito. So yes there is three Uchiha left. You see… well that is a long story, but to put it short I didn't live with the rest of the Uchiha, and thus when they were whipped out, I was sparred the wrath of your brother."
"Why should, I believe you, what can you do to show me, that you are an Uchiha."
"Well, I can just do this," Obito said his eyes turning two show two sharingans.
"Hmm… I see, why are you after Itachi, why aren't you trying to avenge our clan."
"Because, kid, it wouldn't do any good, it won't bring back your father, mother, or anyone else in your clan. If I kill Itachi, everything will still be the same. Plus, I have been asked to help you, I am offering you a home which you can live in."
"Will, you train me in the ways of the Uchiha?" the boy asked bluntly, "I want to master the Uchiha's skills."
"Of course I will, if you promise, me that you will not just use these skill for revenge on your brother. I will not create a avenger, the Uchiha would never want its member's sink to that level."
"Fine, I won't," Sasuke said looking around, "Hey how about we get out of here, I am sick of this place."
"Sure, just give me a couple of moments," Obito said walking out of the room.
Obito walked down to the hall a bit, to where the nearest station was located. Obito smiled at the young nurse who was waiting behind the desk. "The young Uchiha, I am going to take him home with me, can you hand over the paper work, miss."
"Um, sure no problem," the nurse said handing over the paperwork, which Obito signed quickly, and turned the paper work back before walking towards the room again.
When he arrived in the room, he noticed that the boy was already for the trip and for just getting out of the hospital. While he had to admit, he was a bit surprised at how fast the kid got ready, he could hardly blame him for it. He remember how it was so little fun to be in this place, the times he had been injured. He lead the boy out of the hospital rather quickly, and then down the streets to the new house where Obito, and Sasuke would be living for quiet a while. Obito walked up to the door and held it open for the kid.
"You room is the one down the hall and to the left. I had some people bring your stuff from your old home, and put it in there, you can set it up however you want."
"Yeah sure, whatever," Sasuke replied looking around the room.
As Obito watched the boy, he noticed that he was looking at everything somewhat carefully. It looked as if the boy was trying to look at the stuff to figure out him a little bit better, from the stuff that he owned.
"So, is this the 4th Hokage?"
"Yeah," Obito said with a small smile, "He was my jounin teacher, and the other two in that picture were my teammates on my gennin team."
"So, what happened to the other two people in the picture, I can't say I have ever seen either of them."
"They both are dead, the other boy, died to save my life, and the girl died a short time later in the same war. It was a really dangerous time period, many good people were killed."
"Hmm.." the boy aid looking at other pictures, he noticed pictures of the Uchiha, but none that were recent at all. In fact, all of the pictures with other Uchiha members in it, had to be at least a half a dozen years old.
"So, what rank are you, I am just wondering, cause I want to know who is going to help me get stronger and all?"
"Jounin, kid, and I know a pretty decent amount."
"Well, good, we can start out training tomorrow then?"
"Yeah sure kid, we can do that, once you get back from your class."
"Alright, I am going to bed, I will see you in the morning," Sasuke announced in a very non-child like way before disappearing into his own room.
