That fated night

"Konoha is burning.." said Minato as he stared at the village who was engulfed in flames, while Kyuubi kept on crushing buildings one after another and claiming the lives of dozens shinobi with his every moves.

"Aaaaarrrrgggghhhh!!!!"

Kyuubi roared as he sensed Minato that was standing on his scupture and opened his mouth. A huge purple spherical ball of chakra made from small blue chakra and red chakra spheres that slowly merged together, formed in his mouth ready to be lauched at Minato.

"So, you noticed me....huh!?!... But don't think that I will let both of you keep on doing as you please in my village." said Minato as he regained his calm and collected state of mind. At the same time, he waved his hands to perform several hand-seals as he was getting ready to receive Kyuubi's attack.

About 15 minutes before the the attack.

Under the silvery light coming from the full moon that shone on all of Konoha.

In front of Konoha hospital's entrance, Kakashi was waiting for Rin just like he usually did when he was out on a mission. Kakashi was dressed casually as he wore a his usual black cloth face mask, a white bandana to cover his eyes, a black unzipped jacket with a black high collor shirt and long black pants. Additionally, he was wearing his pairs of black arm warmers and leg warmers, and his black haramaki(bellyband).

His face lifted up towards the moon, Kakashi was lostbin his thoughts.

'Today is the 10th day of the 10th month of the year... It's supposed to be the day, when Minato-sensei and Lady Kushina will die, and Naruto will become the host of Kurama, also known as Kyuubi... But with Obito really dead in this Timeline, I don't think that there will be any problem...

But just in case, I had investigated about the Uchiha clan and any members that have disappeared during the war or the past few months after the war... None have disappeared in the regions surroundings the Kanabi bridge in the war and all those that died, have had their corpses returned to their families... Also no-one from the Uchiha clan have deserted the village since the war....

On top of it, the hideout chosen by Minato-sensei is unknown to the members of the Anbu, except for Lord Third Hokage and Lady Biwako... All of the three members of the Anbu that were selected, had been transported directly to the hideout with any prior information about the location by Minato-sensei...

It seems that Minato-sensei, has taken my advice about the possibility of an attempt from the other villagers and ninjas to obtain the power of Kyuubi seriously. Now, I can only hope that everything goes on smoothly without any problems. Since even though I'm stronger right now than the previous Kakashi, I'm far from having reached the level of a Kage.

And this fact will not change even if I had sealed Obito's Sharingan as my overall chakra reserve is a far cry from level of the chakra reserves of Minato-sensei and Lord Hiruzen... At least untill I complete my training using aftereffects of the sharingan and the physical training that Gai used from Kakashi's memories prior to war and my memories of the Naruto anime about Gai, Kakashi and Rock Lee's training...

At that time, the aftereffects of the sharingan will no longer impede me in any way. I will also have to find the Ryuuchi cave by then, in order to undergo the sage mode training and to obtain the snakes of the Ryuuchi Cave as summons ... With two types of summons, I will become more versatile shinobi like Jiraiya which is an expert in both infiltration and combat. After all with the sharingan, I'm more versed in combat that infiltration... Rin is late, tonigh-'

"Kakashi! You are already here... It seems that I wasn't the only one eager to go eat ramen at Ichiraku's restaurant today... So how was your last mission?..."

"Yeah! You know that I will never miss eating ramen together with you, Rin!... As for the mission, it wasn't that difficult. " said Kakashi as he turned his head towards Rin. Rin could feel Kakashi's gaze even while his eyes were covered by the white bandana and she blushed.

"Kakashi! Can you grant a request for me..."

"Yeah! What is it!"

"Can you please remove your bandana and show me your eyes... "

"Okay... I'll show them to you, if that's what you want..."

Kakashi untied the bandana as soon as he finished speaking and slowly opened to look at Nohara Rin.

At the same time, Rin slowly moved a few steps backwards in order for Kakashi to see her properly. As Kakashi's eyes started to adapt to light of being closed for several months and the three tomoe in each of his crimson eyes started to slowly rotate in a clockwise direction.

The first thing that he saw with his field of view that was dyed red, was Rin's body pierced by five long shards of glasses and flames slowly engulfing Rin's body. Only then did the sound of the explosions reached his ears.

*BBBBBoooooommmm*

He remained immobile as the flames slowly engulfed him and huge debris from the hospital threatened to smash him. But the only thing on his mind at that moment were regrets and if's.

As tears flowed from his eyes and unbeknownst to himself, there was a change that occurred rapidly in his crimson eyes. The three tomoe in each of his eyes fused together with his iris to form a dart-like pattern in both eye. As he accept his death and was ready to be burn to crisp and smash completely, he noticed that his surrounding changed into an area filled with large rectangular blocks stacked beside each other. Before he could think of anything, he felt his mind becoming blank and he collapsed.

As Kakashi lost consciousness in the dimension accessible only through his newly obtained sharingan, sounds of dozen of explosions reverberated throughout Konoha. Debris also flew high in the sky and the lights from the flames caused by the explosions illuminated every corner of the village. Even the compounds of the great clans of Konoha were not spared.

"AAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHH"

Suddenly as the village was still stunned by the explosions, a beastly roar reverberated throughout the village causing fear to fill the hearts of the survivors. Shortly after part of the huge wall that surrounded the village was destroyed by the charge of an orange monstrous humanoid fox with nine enormous tails.
