Little Kagami Uchiha was crying. The reason was simple; he wanted to "Find Tobi", which evidently pissed of his current babysitter: Naori Uchiha. Compared to the rest of her clan, it could certainly be said that she was at least relatively sane, saner that most of the Senjus—like Toka—even. But she had lost it after an entire night of watching over the kid.
