Heh. Sorry guys for making you wait so long. I'm working on several new stories ya know? Still attempting to make the story longer because I always think its too short.
Anyways, enjoy the story✌️?¬ワフ️
Kakashi's POV
Dimore walked up to the center of the arena and positioned himself. I clenched my hands tightly as I followed my opponent. I could see him smirk which is a massive giveaway that he is planning something.
"Begin" the instructor said
Dimore charged at me with a katana, yelling. I sidestepped. Left. Right. Left. Right. This kept going for about five minutes.
"Doton: Yomi Numa!"
The ground around me began to turn to mud, and I started sinking slowly. If I used Suiton, the mud would just make me sink faster.
"Kakashi! Use Raiton!" I could hear Kagome yell from the stadium. She recovers quickly. Yes. Raiton. That would work.
"Chidori!" I stuck my arm into the ground, as far away from me as I could. The ground immediately dried, and crumbled into tiny bits.
"Katon: Gōryūka no Jutsu!" Dimore immediately said. A gigantic dragon made of fire appeared, startling the audience.
"Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu!" I yelled. Now, a water dragon appeared. The two dragons clashed into each other as Dimore's and my kunai hit. Metal against metal. He pulled back, and so did I. He did several hand signs.
"Doton: Uiten Pen!"
Dear kami. The ground around me shifted, enclosing me in a dome. I notice that all his attackes so far were either A or B ranked. Strange. That's not Genin level. "Raikiri!" My lightning cutter broke through the defense, and crumbled it. I got out just in time. Apparently my lightning cutter hit Dimore too. Medics were by his side, and they were now putting him in a stretcher.
"Winner of this round, Hatake Kakashi!"
Cheers erupted from the stadiums. I went up to where my friends were, and Kagome tackled me with a hug.
"Kakashi! Omedetō-ttebane!**"
I smiled lightly. "Arigatō"
"Omedetō Kakashi" Obito and Rin said at the same time, while smiling.
-?-
"Sensei! What were our results?" Obito begged Minato-sensei.
"Oh yeah. I forgot to tell you! Obito, Rin. You guys are now!"
"What abou us?" Kagome asked, wrapping an arm around my neck.
I noticed Minato-sensei's face get serious. "My Hokage ceremony will be postponed...due to the third-great ninja war"
"NANI**?!"
"Rin, Obito, Kakashi, Kagome...you guys will be with me on the mission of the Kannabi bridge. There, we will destroy it to prevent the other shinobi a from crossing it. Kakashi...Kagome...Lord Third has appointed you to be Jōnin's."
"EH?!" Obito's face was priceless. His eyes were wide, his head was in an odd position, and his jaw dropped.
"The mission begins tomorrow. Ill meet you guys at the front of Konoha's gates. Obito, dont be late." With that, Minato-sensei went off.
-?-
Kagome's POV
I was the first one at the gate. Kakashi came a few minutes after me, and so did Rin. Dad appeared all ready to go...except...
"I'm here!"
Obito was running to catch up to us.
"You're late!" Kakashi scolded
"Sorry" Obito rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly
We traveled a while until my dad spoke up. " today is a very special day for Kagome and Kakashi. It is their first missions as Jōnin's. Here. It is a custom made kunai. It may feel weird at first, but you will get used to it." He handed one to Kakashi and me.
"Thanks" we both replied
Rin took something out from behind her back."This is for you two. A medical kit. I arranged it to where you can use it easily." We took it from her gratefully.
"Thanks" we said again.
Obito made me hold my hand out. He placed something in there, and gently closed my hands. I pulled my fist towards me, and reopened my hand, revealing a necklace. It had a goggle and the Uchiha symbol on it as charms. I out it around my neck and hugged Obito as hard as I could. I could see Kakashi's eyes widen and then soften in a sad way.
Kakashi held a hand out for Obito.
"What?" He looked at him confused. "Why did you expect me to bring you something just because I got Kagome something?"
"It's okay. I figured it would be useless anyways" Kakashi said, withdrawing his hand. I elbowed him slightly for his rudeness.
"Here Kakashi. I got something for you too." I pulled out a silver kunai that had been beautifully engraved with decorations, and Kakashi's name on its handle. I gave it to him. "See? I have one too" I pulled out my own which had my name engraved on it, and it had the same pattern. "Now we can match" I said, smiling.
"Um..." He hesitated, and I cocked my head to the side. "Here" he said quickly, shoving a box in my hands he started walking quickly to our destination, and I followed. I opened the box and i now realized why he was sad when Obito gave me a necklace. He had gotton me a necklace too, but it was a silver heart outline with orange, blue, and white diamonds on it. I smiled softly, and put it on.
*time skip*
I sensed an unfamiliar presence. I closed my eyes and used the nature sensing jutsu that Fukasaku-san taught me at Mt. Myōboku.
"Rin! Watch out!"As soon as those words left my mouth, the invisible man grabbed my best friend.
"We should take her" he said, and disappeared.
"We have to go help Rin!" Obito exclaimed
"No. Carry on with the mission. We'll save Rin later." Kakashi responded. I looked at him with shock. How could he do this?
"Kakashi! Rin is our friend, and comrade! Are you going to throw her away like a piece of trash just for a mission?! She has healed all our wounds in the past, and without her, we wouldn't even be alive right now! Those who break the rules are scum, that's true, but those who abandon their friends are worse than scum." With that, Obito ran to the direction where Rin was takes, and Kakashi walked in the other.
"Come on Kagome" Kakashi said, motioning for me to follow.
"Gomen...Kakashi..." I said as I ran towards Obito's direction.
-?-
"Obito! Watch out!" I yelled. Obito turned around to see that a katana was swinging at him. I thought it was too late until I saw a blur of silver. "Kakashi! You came!" I exclaimed, but gasped as the katana slashed his eye. "Kakashi!" I ran to him as fast as I can.
Kakashi collapsed to the floor, clutching his bleeding eye. Obito looked at him in horror. I sensed someone coming. Just as I was about to warn Obito, he stuck his kunai out, and impaled the invisible man.
"How" the man asked
I looked at Obito, and my eyes widened in shock. He had unlocked his sharingan. "Obito!" I gasped.
"Now its my turn to protect you guys" he smiled. We wrapped Kakashi's eye in bandaids. After that, we went to go save Rin.
-?-
Apparently Rin was caught in a Genjutsu. Kakashi and Obito were dealing with the other people while I went to save Rin.
"Kai" I said, releasing the Genjutsu.
She woke up startled. "Kagome" she breathed, letting out a sign of releif.
I undid the knots that tied her up, and ran out just as the rocks were crumbling down. When we were almost out, until Kakashi got hit in the head by a falling rock. He fel to the ground, not being able to get up.
"Kakashi!"
Obito ran towards our fallen teammate. He picked Kakashi up, and tossed him aside.
"Obito!" I yelled as he was getting crushed by a larger rock that was meant to hit Kakashi. I was knocked out after that.
-?-
I woke up feeling groggy, then I remembered what had happened. I noticed that the dust was clearing, and Rin and Kakashi was okay.
"Rin...Kagome...Kakashi...are you okay?"
My head snapped towards the direction of the voice.
"Obito!" I cried, running towards his half crushed body. Tears slid down from my face rapidly. Kakashi and Rin were by Obito's side before I even noticed.
"That's right...Kakashi...I'm the only one who didn't give you a present for becoming Jōnin. I promise it wont be useless...I'm giving you my sharingan..."
Kakashi looked up, shocked.
"Rin...transfer my eye into, Kakashi's blind one..."
"Obito..." I buried my face in Obito's chest. No. This cant be happening. This is a dream. After a short while, Obito's left eye was gone, transported into Kakashi.
"Now...go..." He said weakly which made me cry harder. I felt terrible. One of my best friend is going to die, and I cant do anything about it.
"Come on...Kagome, Rin." Kakashi had a sad look in his eyes. He was just as sad as we are, but we had to complete the mission.
"Sayonara...Obito" I pressed my lips onto his cheek, and smiled sadly. I could see a small blush creep up his face.
We got out just in time as more rocks fell covering Obito. Before I knew it someone was behind me. He hit his arm on the side of my neck, and I blacked out.
-?-
I woke up, and it was nighttime. I sat up pretty fast.
"Ow" I placed a hand on my head. My head was spinning. I got up, and started walking to who I think is Kakashi. Wrong. I ran smack into a large rock. As I was falling back, a pair of arms grabbed me. I looked up to see my favorite silver haired friend.
"Careful." He said
I soon remembered what had happened before I passed out. "Obito!" I gasped looking around. When I didn't see him, I looked at Kakashi helplessly. He just shook his head. Tears swelled up in my eyes as I buried my face into Kakashi's shirt. He patted my back lightly which made me calm down a bit.
My dad came and cleared his throat. We broke apart and looked at him.
"I heard about Obito" he said sadly.
"Yeah" I said in a voice which was lower than a whisper.
-?-
We returned to Konoha when the sun was up. I grasped the necklace Obito have me and held it tight as memories of Obito flooded my mind.
"Kagome. Are you okay?" Kakashi asked me.
I saw Rin shake her head and mouth 'not now'
She knew is was in deep sorrow for loosing a comrade, and a dear friend.
We passed the village gates, and returned to the Hokage's office. I had to wait outside as my dad explained everything because he knew I would have a mental breakdown in there.
I decided to go home where I could cry in peace.
"Kagome?" I heard my mom call. I ignored her. She came out the kitchen and noticed me sulking. Her face had a look of pity on it as she returned to cook.
For the past five days, I was always in my room. The sixth day, my team was called for a mission.
*time skip*
Rin was now made the Jinchūriki of the sanbi (three tails)
Just as Kakashi was going to hit an enemy with chidori, Rin stepped in front of him. Wait. What?!...is she committing suicide? I know she is a Jinchūriki, but she didn have to go that far.
"Ka-ka-shi..." She said her final words before she died. Kakashi had tears streaming down his face and so did I. I quickly slashed the enemy's neck before running towards my fallen best friend. Kakashi took chidori out, and passed out on the floo from shock, and exhaustion. Before Rin could hit hard ground, I caughte her.
"Rin..." I whispered, and hugged her tightly. I cried until I fell asleep. 'It was my fault...' That was my last thought.
"Hm?" I woke up in a hospital. At least thats what I think. I blinked my eyes several times. Yep. A hospital. I looked towards my right and saw Kakashi was there too. Just looking hat him brought back memories, or Rin. I remembered what tad happened, and clenched my fist. If only I could have protected her. And Obito too...if I could have only pushed him out the way, he wouldn't have died. I missed them. I smashed my fist into the bed. I was angry and bitter at my self. I don't want to lose anymore precious people in my life. I don't want to lose you. Kakashi.
I know that I said I will try to make the chapter longer, and I'm really sorry this is short, but I had to stop here for the next chapter. Sorry that I described their deaths poorly. I tried. Dont judge. Hopefully the next chapter will be longer. Maybe the chapter after the next will be when she returns to Konoha.
Writing this made me sad, and I tried to make this really sad, because that's how it's supposed to be right?
I hope you liked this chapter, and see ya next time!
