Chapter 3: Back in the past… Literally.
'Author's flashback no Jutsu!'
Kakashi ran through the forest on the back hill of Konoha. He was following two missing-nin from Iwa, all though he had no idea why they would come here. They went all the way through the forest until they got to a clearing.
The fight started.
One of the enemy took out a Kunai which he lazily threw at Kakashi, which was a sign to him that they weren't taking him serious. As he dodged them easily he decided to quickly end this. He concentrated his chakra into his palm and added lightning-natured chakra as well. This formed his signature move.
"Raikiri!"
He shouted as he charged to one of the nin. He was easily able to pierce through his chest, giving him a certain death.
At least, he thought so. Before it changed into rock.
He pulled his arm out and turned around just to find himself being slashed with a ninjato. As the enemy was about to make his second strike, Kakashi disappeared. The Iwa nin got a little confused, where the heck did he go?
Kakashi then appeared behind the nin and striked him with yet another Raikiri. Luckily, it was the real one this time. He took out his bloody hand and let the body of the now lifeless Iwa nin fall down on the cold ground. The other – who had seen it all – cursed under his breath. 'that idiot let himself be killed before we were even done here. Well, I got no choice now…' The Iwa nin made two handsigns. 'Horse, snake.' And before Kakashi had even seen he'd done something, the ground started glowing white. 'Shit! He purposely led me here?!' was the last thing he thought, before the white light took him of his consciousness.
Kakashi opened his eye to see he was still in the same clearing, but no track of the Iwa nin anywhere. He sighed a little before he got back on his feet. He didn't really feel like going after him though. Because, you know, he's lazy. 'I'll report this to Lady Tsunade and let her send a team to track that Nin down.' He nodded as he agreed with himself. 'Yep, that's a good idea.'
He jumped on one of the tree branches and started making his way to the village; only to stumble upon a big surprise.
He entered Konohagakure and made his way to the Hokage mansion. He didn't have time – or just didn't want to – to notice all the weird stares directed at him.
He ran through the halls and easily went past the Hokage's secretary. He soon stood in front of the office and knocked. He heard a male voice saying "Come in!". He frowned since he didn't seem to recognize it, well, maybe he did, a little bit. But he didn't pay attention to that.
He slowly opened the door only to see a blonde man working on some paperwork. Kakashi's one visible eye widened, "M-m-minato?!" Kakashi murmured, just loud enough for the blonde to hear him.
"Huh? Kakashi? Is that you?" Minato asked as he took his attention off his paperwork. He was just as confused as Kakashi, was that really his student? Well, he undoubtedly looked like him, but he was just as old as he himself was.
Kakashi hesitantly nodded. "Minato-sensei, is that really you?" He questioned the blonde. He didn't sense a distortion in his chakra, so this wasn't a Genjutsu. But then, what happened? Why is he alive?
Minato got confused, what did he mean by that? Of course it was him. "Well yeah, obviously it's me. But…" he studied Kakashi. "You look a little too old to be my student." Minato explained.
"B-but… You're dead…" Kakashi mumbled, what the heck was going on? Was he finally going crazy?
"Dead? What do you mean 'dead'?" Minato raised his voice a little in suspicion. "Are you some kind of intruder …?" he asked with his eyes narrowed. Then again, if he was an intruder. Why the hell would he be wearing a Konoha Hitai-ate? It's possible that he just killed a Shinobi and took it, but he also wears the standard Jounin outfit… But he couldn't be Kakashi. He's way too old. But, he even wears his Hitai-ate the same way, does he have the Sharingan too?
And that's how Minato struggled to know if he was real, or if he wasn't.
Kakashi got nervous. Why the heck would he be an intruder? If he really was written down as an intruder, he'd better start running. But he didn't want to. Here he was; his dead sensei. Alive and well. "I-I'm no intruder." He soon spoke. 'Hm, would he even believe that? He is Minato after all..' he was broken out of his thoughts as the person in front of him spoke again.
"How should I believe you?" he asked the older Kakashi – yes, that's how he was going to name him, believe it or not. – "It would help if you'd show me evidence."
Kakashi gave a slight nod and began raising his Hitai-ate. Soon revealing his closed eye with a scar. Then, as he opened it you were able to see a Sharingan with 3 tomoes. "I am Kakashi."
"This.. You really are Kakashi… Everyone knows he got the Sharingan when-" He was the one who got cut off now.
"-When Obito died. Yes." He said with his usual monotone. He didn't show it, but thinking back to that time still saddened him.
"Yeah… When Obito died." Minato paused, "So you are Kakashi. I'm sure about that, but then… The Kakashi I know is a lot younger." He looked at him once more, he was about as tall as he was and really wasn't any younger than 20.
"Yes, I'm not pretty sure how this happened though. But…" he smirked. "Seems I got back in the past." He mentally laughed at himself 'seriously? Back in the past…?'
"Back in the past huh? So. What happened to you to get here? Something must've happened." He sighed, this conversation was getting more and more confusing by the second. But it had to be solved so he had no choice.
"I was following some Iwa nin who got into the village. I don't know why though. As I took one down, the other didn't seem to be happy by that and cast some sort of Jutsu. I wasn't able to see what happened clearly, but next thing I found myself being sucked up by white light which turned to black as soon as I lost consciousness." He explained. "I wouldn't mind showing you where it happened."
Minato nodded and got out of his chair. He walked past Kakashi and gestured for him to follow, but he had other plans. "No thanks. I'll go by window." He gave a smile with his one visible eye, and left.
Minato sighed. This older Kakashi sure is different, he seems much more relaxed. As Minato grumbled a little he decided to follow Kakashi through the window since he didn't want to lose sight of him.
After they left the village he found himself running over some tree branches on one of the hills at the outskirts of Konoha, following his older student. (A/N. Yes, I know you've heard that a lot now.) A clearing got into his sight and he stopped as soon as Kakashi stopped. "This is where I woke up."
Minato looked around to try and find anything suspicious, or even a little bit of chakra. But there wasn't anything. "This Iwa nin, do you think he's still here?"
Kakashi nodded, "Yes. I'm pretty sure." Kakashi sweat dropped. "I was going and try to follow him… But…" pause. "I figured Lady Tsunade could put a team together to track him down. It wouldn't be much trouble." He explained to the Yondaime.
"Lady Tsunade? Wait, she's the Godaime then?" Minato got nervous, 'Tsunade?! Oh no…' "How's the village?!"
"As good as it could ever be."
Minato sighed in relieve, he was happy to hear that. "I think we should get back to my office to continue this conversation. This is S ranked information and we shouldn't let anyone know about any of this." Minato chuckled, "And they'd probably be panicking right now as to where I went."
Kakashi smiled under his mask, "Yes, that's a good idea." They both started to walk back into the forest as Kakashi spoke up again. "Minato-..Sensei, there will probably be people go looking for me. I know it should be impossible to get here though, but…"
The blonde Hokage nodded, "Alright. We'll keep an eye out to this exact clearing." He said as they headed back.
MHAUAHHA! You thought you would see how Minato would react, huh?! Well. Obviously not! Hehe. I'll give you a hint: Next time you will. So anyhow: My excuses that I suck at fighting scenes, and I also hate flashbacks since they confuse me all the time. Lol. But I still hope you enjoyed this chapter c:
Ja ne ^_^
P.S: I am working on re-writing chapter 1, since it was a little confusing.
