Obito crossed his arms.
"Let me make it clear that I still don't trust Kakashi."
The pair had returned to the hideout after their midnight investigation and were chatting in Obito's room. Rin glanced at the Uchiha, attempting to stifle her exasperation.
"I get it... but will you come back with me?"
"Yeah, of course. As long as you're there, Rin," he replied. His expression became a little uncertain. "But... You know... What's really in it for me?"
His old teammate's eyes gleamed dangerously. Obito almost regretted his words. Then, the gleam disappeared and her entire body seemed to deflate with something a little more than exhaustion.
A little more than pain.
A little more than heartbreak.
The Uchiha frowned. Did she like someone?
Rin headed to the door in silence. She turned.
"Look, I don't know about you, but if you don't at least give Konoha another try-" Her chocolate eyes met his onyx ones; they were icy - but he could see in them the little serving of desperateness and fear as well. "-There will be a war."
And Obito's blood ran cold.

"T-Tomorrow?!" Deidara exclaimed. "That's not fair, hmm!"
"Hey, look, I couldn't help that Hashirama-" Rin stopped midsentence.
Deidara blinked.
"Hashirama...?"
"The Shodai Hokage?" Itachi asked, stopping to listen in on the blond and chocolate's conversation.
Rin lowered her gaze.
"You've been saying a lot of weird things, you know, Rin," Konan added as she joined the conversation.
"What do you guys think I'm talking about?" the medic asked quietly.
The others were silent for several beats.
"Visions?" Itachi guessed.
"Crazier than that."
"Ghosts?" Konan asked.
"Crazier."
"Maybe Rin met the Hokage in the afterlife, hmm," Deidara joked. The others smirked skeptically at him.
"Well, yeah."
...
...
...
And then, together:
"You gotta be kidding me."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They were still looking at her with those disbelieving eyes.
"Just get it into your heads, will you?" she grumbled. Deidara, Itachi and Konan had made her tell the whole Akatsuki what had really happened and how she had gotten into Ame in the first place. Along with that, Itachi encouraged her to talk about her Kekkei Genkai, which she opened up about reluctantly. It made her sad. She was supposed to tell Sasori first.
"Dead..."
"Ghost..."
"Shodai Hokage..."
"Reincarnation..."
