"Woah, what is all this?" A young excavator spoke in awe as he walked into the small underground room.
"This would appear to be a crypt young man, we should be careful interacting with the things in here." A spectacled man wearing dark green and holding a cane replied as he to entered the room holding a flash light. "We can only guess whose resting place this is and how long they've been here." He spoke again as he walked towards the large sarcophagus at the center. He was lying to the boy of course, he had an idea of who was lying in the stone in the giant coffin.
"Azul was it? Could you run out and grab a few brushes as well as several lamps?" He asked the boy who quickly nodded and did as he was asked leaving the gray haired man alone in the crypt. Placing his had on the top of the sarcophagus he smiled. "We've been looking for you for a very long time Great Sage. It would have been magnificent to meet you while you still lived, but at least we can move your remains to a place of honor. It's because of you after all that we have the fragile balance in the world that we do. You have my thanks." He spoke with great reverence and respect as he looked down at the container that held the remains of the one responsible for so much good.
The man dragged his hand across the top wiping away a layer of dust when suddenly he stopped, his hand touched something warm. Grabbing his light he shined it over where his hand was touching and found black ink that formed a complex circular pattern underneath the thick coating of dust. Quickly he took a deep breath and blew the remaining dust away before inspecting further. "How odd, the ink doesn't seemed to have faded at all, and it's slightly warm."
After inspecting it for several seconds he noticed something further. "Is that aura?" He asked himself feeling an energy coming from the markings. On a hunch the man focused a decent amount of aura into his palm as he touched the markings and was shocked by the results. The moment his aura touched the energy within the markings there was a backlash of energy that forced the man away from the sarcophagus, the markings began glowing red illuminating the room, then the most surprising thing the man had ever witnessed happened.
The lid of the sarcophagus slid open and a hand reached up grabbing the side and pulled the body it was attached to up until it was standing. "Who are you?" The man wearing a white mask asked turning to the one who activated the seal, after a moment of silence he looked down at the lid and seal itself. "Over three hundred years early." He mumbled to himself before turning back the man who was still staring at him in awe. "I asked you a question child, who are you." This time he didn't so much as ask as he did demand breaking the man out of his stupor.
"My name is-"
"PROFESSOR OZPIN!" He was cut off as four teen ran into the room weapons drawn. "Professor, your aura signature on our scroll dropped by half, are you okay sir?"
"So your name is Ozpin, and who are these four." His voice startling the four caused them to all whipped around to see who spoke and were greeted by a white masked man with a single glowing red eye visible through on of the eye holes. On instinct the four raised their weapons.
"No don't att-" His voice was drowned out by a storm of gun fire all aimed at the sage, although he never once budged or flinched as the hail of bullets flew at him, instead he remained completely motionless, it looked almost as if the rounds were simply phasing through him entirely. "CEASE FIRE!" Ozpin shouted push the fours weapons down, once the fire had stopped he turned to the sage who was still standing in his original position. "Lord Sage, are you okay?" Ozpin asked sounding worried.
Obito tilted his head curiously, he wondered how this man knew he was a sage. "You children could never harm me." He spoke in a condescending tone, he was slightly irritated that someone broke his seal so early, to make himself feel better he decided to try and piss off the offenders. He looked directly at one of the four, a boy with red eyes holding a scythe. "Brats like this one aren't capable of even scuffing my boots." He laughed stepping out of the coffin and began walking towards the entrance surprising the five other people.
"Lord Sage, where are you going?" Ozpin asked running to his side following him out.
Obito smiled under his mask, for the first time in centuries he was excited, he wanted to see what effect those girls had on the world. Stepping out of what looked like a large hole in the ground he looked around ignoring the several dozen people staring at him, most dressed like miners or diggers. "I guess I shouldn't be surprised that my home isn't here anymore, it has be nearly seven centuries." He said to himself.
"Lord Sage?" He heard Ozpin speak again from behind him. "Please sir, I have so many questions. How are you alive? What are you planning?"
Raising his hand he silenced the young Professor. "I plan to see what my work has wrought." An instant later he vanished entirely without a single trace of where he went or how he left.
"What the hell just happened?" The red eyed boy asked exiting the cavern behind the professor.
"I'm not quite sure Mr. Branwen, but I'm sure it will have a much large impact on the future than we think." Ozpin answered before reaching into his pocket and retrieving a flask.

"In other news, further reports of the vigilante known as 'The Shepard' being seen across Remnant continue to flood in. With us here today we have Beacon graduate and aura expert Sasha Violet. Sasha, as a huntress what are your thoughts about this figure and how do you believe they are able to show up across the globe so sporadically?" The News anchor asked the young woman sitting across from her.
"Well Lisa, all we can do is speculate at the moment but I theorize that this person possesses some sort of transport semblance. To date there have been countless recorded semblances that enable hunters to move faster, pass through objects, and in some capacity teleportation. However what this individual would need to be capable of would be leagues above anything we've ever seen. To be in downtown Atlas on Friday and pop up in the Forever Fall Forest on Saturday shouldn't be possible. As for my thoughts on the figure themselves I'd say-" The TV screen went dark.
"You can't just sit and watch the TVs all day sir, your gonna have to buy something or leave." A slight balding man told a tall man wearing a long black coat with red clouds across it. The man turned his head revealing an orange mask with a single eyehole, he looked down at the older looking clerk who was now beginning to feel nervous under his gaze.
"I'm sorry, it's just these TVs are sooooo nice but I can't afford them!" He shouted while flapping his arms around like a fool.
The clerk was speechless as he stared at the masked man. "Uh, no problem sir."
"Anyway sorry again, bye!" In a blur Obito exited the store back onto the streets of Vale, for nearly a decade he had enjoyed walking through Vale. The first thing he'd done after waking was check on the state of affairs of the world, after looking into them he found that the system that was maintaining peace was far from perfect and there were still a laundry list of problems, but things were moving smoothly enough. He did what he could when he could but for the most part he left the balance keeping to the maidens.
That was the second thing he did upon waking, he hunted down and checked up on each of the four maidens. They never knew he was there but he managed to place a seal on each that allowed him to be aware of their location and status where ever they were. He would also run checks on the chakra spheres within them to make sure they were still strong and hadn't withered over the centuries. All in all he was happy with letting the four handle maintaining balance as he stayed on the side lines only stepping in rarely, when he did he would hide behind his white mask.
Now he generally spent his days taking work as a freelance hunter, it wasn't hard to become a licensed huntsmen at all. He just walked into the Vale hunters HQ and used his Tsukuyomi to have the person at the front desk register him as a hunter under the name Tobi, this was why he wore his old Akatsuki outfit. Despite all the regretful things he manipulated the group into doing so long ago you had to admit they had style.
"Get the fuck out of here you damn animal!" Someone shouted catching his attention.
A large man was standing out in front of a store shouting at a young faunus woman with large brown rabbit ears who was holding a baby. "But sir please! I need to buy my baby food, I'll pay double the price!" The woman begged the man.
"You think I give a shit about another animal brat? Like hell, I don't need or want your kinds money! Now leave before I call the police." The store owner shouted at the woman loud enough to cause the baby in her arms to start crying.
"Sir I beg you!" The man seemed to have had enough and swung the back of his hand at the woman with intent of striking her, she flinch and closed her eyes while wrapping her arms around the baby to protect it. The hit never made contact.
"You would really strike a woman who was only trying to buy food for her child? Disgusting." The woman looked up to see the man hand being held by a man wearing a orange mask. The store owner looked as if he was in pain as the man squeezed his hand causing a popping sound to occur. "You are no man, you are trash." With a slight twist another pop was heard and the man screamed in agony as he fell to the ground clutching his hand. Obito turned to the young mother and paused after seeing her, she was beautiful.
She had long brown hair that flowed down her shoulders like a waterfall, she had dark eyes and the tall rabbit ears on her head drooped slightly as she comforted her crying child. While to most she would appear rather plane, to Obito she was the most gorgeous woman he'd laid eyes on in nearly two thousand years. Not since Rin had he been to captivated by a woman to speak.
"Miss, are you and your baby okay?" He finally broke out of his daze.
The woman gained a small smile. "Yes, and thank you for your help."
Obito smiled under his mask. "Of course, I'm sure your husband would have done much worse to this trash." He spoke referring to the man still writhing in agony on the ground.
The woman giggled. "I'm actually not married, to be honest I'm single."
Obito couldn't help but chuckle slightly to himself, this whole situation was completely out of character for him. "If thats the case then please allow me to escort you to another shop where you can do your business and then make sure you arrive home safely." Obito gave a overly dramatic bow earning another giggle from the woman.
"Please, you've already done more than enough to help. I would never want to inconvenience you anymore than I already have." She in an accented voice that mesmerized him.
"Nonsense! I would never forgive myself as a man or Huntsmen if I were to allow such a beautiful young mother to walk the streets alone, especially with hateful cretins like that one running about." He gesture to the man who had crawled back into his store by now. "I insist." He offered the woman his hand and after a moment of hesitation she took it and he began leading her away from the store.
The two walked in relative silence with the woman occasionally speaking softly to her baby. "I never got your name." Obito broke the silence.
"You never gave yours either." She smiled.
Obito laughed. "Obito Uchiha, though my friends call me Tobi." He gave a thumbs up.
She giggled again. "My name is Naomi Scarlatina, and this little one is my daughter Velvet." She cooed to the now sleeping infant. "Her father disappeared the moment he heard I was pregnant with her so like I said, I'm single."
Obito nodded his head. "It must be difficult raising a child on your own while so young."
Naomi smiled as she looked down at Velvet. "It can be, but I wouldn't give this little angel up for anything."

"Happy birthday Velvet!" Naomi exclaimed lighting the three candle on the cake.
Velvet bounced happily in her chair as she stared at the cake, she looked to her mother with big eyes. "Wheres daddy?" She asked her mother who smiled softly at her.
"I think he's still out working, I'm sure he'll call later tonight to tell you happy birthday." She explained to the little girl.
The front door of the house then burst open and in walked what looked like a giant pile of toys with legs. "Or he'll show up right now!" Obito shouted as he set the massive pile of toys down and grabbed the little bunny girl as she ran up to him.
"Daddy!" She squealed as he lifted her into the air.
"Happy birthday Bunbun." Naomi smiled at the scene.
She ran a hand through her hair, on her hand a diamond encrusted gold ring. "I thought you said your mission was far south." She walked over to him and placed a kiss on his cheek.
Obito scratched the back of his head, on his finger was a solid silver ring. "Yeah, well after putting some thought into I decided to send a few wood clones instead." He explained with a smile.
Naomi shook her head at her husbands antics, at first it had been difficult to grasp that he was a two thousand year old ninja from another world, every time she thought about it in her head she felt crazy, but he was still one of the best things to ever happen to her. She remembered telling him how insane it all sounded when he first told her, then she said she believed him. That was the day he proposed.
"Anyway, enough about me! It's the birthday girls day, lets eat CAKE!" He shouted tossing Velvet into the air before catching her while she was laughing happily.
The three all sat down and began enjoying their time laughing and joking. It wasn't until half way through dinner that Obito noticed someone was approaching the house, standing up from the table he bent down and kissed his step daughters forehead. "I have some company waiting outside, I'll be right back." He told Naomi before snapping his fingers which caused a slight pulse of chakra to escape him and activate the several hundred individual seals he'd set up through out the house in order to keep his family safe against just about anything. While he'd be the first to admit he'd gone WAY overboard with the number of seals as well as variety, he considered it more than justified to protect his family.
Walking to the door he opened it and stepped out where he found a familiar looking man with gray hair and glasses making his way up the walkway. "Ozpin right?" He asked from his front porch with his arms crossed.
The man nodded his head. "You are correct, now I was hoping I could speak with you Lord Sage. I didn't get the chance all those years ago."
Obito activated his sharingan as he looked the man over, after a moment he took a seat in a rocking chair that sat on his porch and gesture to the one next to him as he looked out into the night sky over the small neighborhood his house sat in. Ozpin took the offered seat. "Thank you for hearing my Lord Sage."
"You can stop with the Lord Sage stuff. Just call me Obito or Tobi." He cut in.
"Very well Obito, please allow me to explain who I really am."
And theres a good place to stop. Now I know a lot of you are gonna hate me for pairing him up so quickly but know that I have plans, also I wanted him to be a father to someone. Anyway tell me what you all think in the reviews. Thanks for reading and I'll see you all in the next chapter.
