Torn Between Two (Naruto Fanfiction) *REWRITING*

Chapter 59

A year went by and things were going pretty smoothly. Obito and I were still together, but we had a few fights here and there. 

Obito, Rin, and I were all promoted to chunin and Kakashi was a jounin now. 

I was up early and I was currently at the store getting Kakashi a gift for becoming a jounin. 

Naomi came running up to me, looking frantic. "Hana!"

"What?" I ask, starting to worry.

"You're supposed to leave with Minato-Sensei. It's urgent so go meet them at the Hokage's Tower," Naomi replied.

"Um, okay then," I said. "Do you know why?"

"You will know once Lord Hokage tells you," She said. "But before you go, please be careful okay?"

First of all, it was unlike Naomi to be this worried for me and second, what the hell is going on? 

"I will,"

I rushed over to the Hokage's Tower, wondering what could be going on. Why was Naomi so scared?

I walked inside the office and even Minato looked a little worried. "Good, now we're all here,"

I stood next to Obito and Lord Hokage started speaking.

"We're at war with the Hidden Stone Village," he started. "I need you guys to go to Kannabi Bridge so you can destroy it. That's where they get their supplies, so once you guys have destroyed it, that is when I want you to return,"

I widened my eyes hearing this. Since when were we at war with them?

"Lord Hokage?" I ask and he looked at me. "How long have we been at war with them?"

"The problem started last year, but they declared war just last week," He answered.

I guess I shouldn't be too worried since we're just destroying a bridge rather than going into the battlefield. 

"You guys are dismissed now."

We exited his office and started walking over to the gate. All of us were silent, worried about this mission. I was paranoid now because I didn't want to lose anyone I cared for.

"Before we go," Minato said. "I need you guys to be very careful and don't take this mission lightly. We could all die because an enemy could follow us. I don't want any of you to get hurt,"

His words just made me even more nervous. He was right. I could lose any of them and I don't know what I'd do if I ever lost Minato and Obito especially. I looked over at Obito and I could tell he was thinking the same thing I was. He just gave me a smile to reassure me.

Kushina caught up with us before we left and looked just as worried as we were.

She walked over to the gate with us and Obito reached down to my hand. I looked up at him.

"Obito, you better not die on me. You remember that promise, right?"

He gave me a small smile. "I made that promise to you before, remember? So just relax,"

"You better hold that promise," 

I was at least glad he remembered that moment though. 

Obito just squeezed my hand lightly. "You better promise me the same thing and when all of this is over, we will go get some Ichiraku,"

I gave him a small smile and now we were at the gate. Uneasiness ran through my body. 

"Are we ready?" Minato asked.
