Chapter 42- Obito Uchiha

Tobias stared at the photo for a long time before reading his own name. There were a couple of pictures. In other documents there was sometimes a photo of family or a picture of a kid that went to a school.

Tobias didn't have a picture of him with family, nor at a school. He had a picture of 3 other people with himself. There was the Hokage, the girl he never managed to get the name of and Kakashi. He seemed angry at Kakashi.

"That's where I knew them." His voice was blank. Despite seeing what would have been an important memory nothing shifted in his body. His brain didn't acknowledge these people as people he knew. Even his own self looked foreign. He couldn't make a genuine expression like that, not anymore.

The only face expressions he makes are forced.

Tobias grew frustrated looking at the pictures that awakened no memories. He finally read the words beside where the pictures were attached.

"Obito?" It sounded familiar. So Tobias assumed that was probably his name.

It says that he was from the Uchiha clan. Though he was pushed out for not awakening the Sharingan at the normal age. It says he died on a mission where he gave his eye to Kakashi.

"Kakashi has my eye? Weird." Tobias flipped through the pages.

"Now that I think about it... How did I know his name? Fugaku is what I said earlier, right?" Maybe his younger self despised the man. But he didn't know.

"So if I knew Minato... Then that means I did know Kushina." Maybe that's why I found comfort in... Yuhiko's company.

He looked up from the document. The rest talked about his skills. He doesn't need to know about his past skills, they are long gone.

"So I did know the Hokage." The Hokage wasn't exactly his favorite person. I wonder how I felt about him when I was younger. Obito folded the document neatly into his pocket. Maybe he can ask someone about his identity. Probably one of the members of his old team.

Obito looked around the room once more but found nothing of importance. Not that he would have been aware of anything important anyway.

He phased through the floor to fall onto the first floor where he was most familiar with. It was empty. Things lay on the ground untouched. Doors or walls were collecting dust. He wasn't gone that long, a couple days at most. How come everything happened so quick? How were the corpses of the children already so decomposed? As if they were decomposing for a month.

Obito stared hard at the dormitory. He had no reason to explore that section of the area.

But he went anyway. An idea popped into his mind. He needs to do something that he wished he had done a long time ago.

He entered his room the door squeaked as it was opened. He walked into the bathroom and opened the cabinet that he only used twice.

The smell of the dried blood had run stale at this time. The blood no longer made him want to vomit, no less the sight of her blood made him want to.

She or anybody else here would not get a proper burial. They will not be remembered with gravestones. Only their loved ones, if they had any, will remember them. Never having the knowledge about what happened to their friends, children or relatives.

Obito phased out of his room to the outside. If he were to bury the clothes here, she would be stuck in a place that she wanted so badly to escape from.

It should be the Uzumaki Clan Ruins. She was An Uzumaki, but she had a different last name. Perhaps she inherited it from her mother who took her father's last name. Kushina took the Hokages last name.

He didn't feel bothered to walk there. He teleported and soon after he was staring at the Clan Ruins.

At the temple that centered the place stood the man he was told to assassinate before. The man took notice of Obito.

"Well I'm glad to see you again." The man said as he walked up to Obito. "You as well." Obito bowed slightly and so did the old man.

The man studied the clothes in Obito's arms but didn't speak.

"The blood of my friend are on these clothes. It's the last thing I have of her." The man seemed disturbed but he let Obito continue.

"She died. And she has had no burial. I wish to bury her clothes here, as she was an Uzumaki."

The man studied the clothes a little longer before looking at Obito. "You and her were children of the Orginization, were you not?" Obito was taken aback by the question but nodded his head nonetheless.

The old man nodded. "You are a good person. Having brought what remains of her here." He smiled before looking away. "You were sent here to assassinate me. I found the document that said so a little while ago." Obito was surprised by the mans calmness but remained quiet.

"You found the heart to ignore direct orders." The old man began to walk to a small area that occupied the farthest part of the village.

It was gravestones. All of them looked old and worn but you could read any names that were carved into the stones.

"I will bury it for you." The old man said with a smile. "I'm sure you have somewhere to be." The old man took the clothes with care.

"Thank you." Obito nodded. The man nodded as well. "It's no problem Tobias." Obito was about to walk away before he stopped. "My name is Obito." The man seemed taken aback.

"Then you best get going back to the leaf to Kushina." His smiled was wide. Stretched from ear to ear.

Obito's eyes widened before he nodded again. "Right." He decided to teleport again. He doesn't have time to dawdle through the forest now does he?
