Chapter 4 : The Backstory of the Hatake Family

Hatake Residence: Kakashi's Room

It's been a week since I met Rin and Obito, and I have to say they're nice people. they have been taking to my training quite enthusiastically, I'm surprised, I thought they were going to quit halfway through. but they proved me wrong. I suppose it's my fault for having such a negative perception of them.

moving from that topic, I want to know what changed this world. I mean the Uzumaki clan still exists here in Konoha, thanks to my Father. but I don't remember him being at Uzushiogakure during whatever destroyed them. still, he saved them and gained the title of the Savior of the Uzumakis. pretty impressive. this Sakumo Hatake is a lot different from his canon counterpart. he's more confident and more happy with life.

and there's my mother. she is cool if not a little more than my father in some aspects. she's an S-rank shinobi, yes, you heard that right S-rank. what makes her an S-rank is her amazing medical Ninjutsu which was almost on par with that of Tsunade, and her Taijutsu that she combines with her Medical knowledge making her a deadly opponent to those who try to fight in close-quarters combat with her.

they call her the Goddess of Death (AN: I couldn't think of a better name). She earned her nickname by covering the retreat of her fellow leaf Shinobi while killing 800 Mist shinobi in the process. while she was severely injured herself, and slightly exhausted on top of it. she still managed to buy enough to save her fellow shinobi and get out safely.

So yeah, I'm the son of two amazing and accomplished people. which is kind of scary, to be honest. if I didn't have the knowledge that weird God gave me. I would be quite insecure about myself. although, he could have given me the power of that future Kakash right off the bat so I don't have to push myself as hard.

hmm. Well, I guess beggars can't be choosers and all that.

getting up off my bed, I headed towards my bedroom door and made my way to the living room, where I found my parents sitting at the dinner table, engaged in conversation. They turned to me as I entered.

"Ah, Kakashi, how's your day." My Father spoke.

"Better now, seeing you both here," I said waving at them while moving to get a bowl of soup from the kitchen counter.

"I have seen you training with two other kids recently, are they your friends?" My Mother asked.

"You mean Obito and Rin? I guess you could call them that." I said while grabbing the bowl from the counter and moving to the table. taking a seat I watched them look at me with a surprised look. "Is it that surprising that I have friends?" I asked, confused by their reactions.

"we mean no disrespect sweetie, but we thought with your dedication to training you might never have thought to make friends." My Mother said with a sheepish look.

"Yeah, I did try to encourage you to hang out with Duy's son, but you would always say 'I don't have time for such distractions.' " My Father said.

Ouch, did they really think, I would never make friends? hmm. now that I think about it. I could see where they were coming from. I'm doing nothing but training, not giving time to myself. I guess. I will start taking some breaks in between my lessons.

"Yeah, I see where you guys are coming from, I'm just so focused on my training that I never really thought about socializing with other people. but, that will change now," I said,

"thank goodness. I thought my son would be a loner forever." My Mother said relieved.

"You had us worried that you would never form any bonds with your fellow Shinobi." my Father said.

yeah, I really need to socialize more.

"ahh man!" Obito yelled, looking exhausted from trying to climb the tree. he lay on the ground after having just fallen from the tree trying to master the tree-climbing exercise.

"I told you that mastering this wasn't going to be easy," I said looking down at Obito from top of the tree.

"I know already! I just thought it would be easy after seeing Rin master it In just two hours!" Obito said looking dejected.

He looks quite pitiful right now, might as well throw him a bone.

"The reason you may be having difficulty mastering this may be due to the amount of chakra you have, Obito," I explained.

"Huh? The amount of Chakra I have?" Obito said while getting up. "What are you talking about? What does this have to do with the amount of Chakra I possess, Kakashi."

"I mean. with the Chakra, you currently have, it's difficult for you to climb up the tree while also concentrating on the amount of Chakra you put into your feet sticking to the tree," I said to him.

"So, the reason I'm having trouble with this is because of my Chakra or at least the amount I have?" Obito said.

"Yes, but fear not, at the rate you're progressing, you should master it very soon," I said trying to cheer him up.

"Alright! I'm ready now let's do this!" Obito said reinvigorated. 

right, now it is time for me to get to practicing my Shurikenjutsu. ahhh, if only I had the Sharingan to make this quicker. those Uchihas don't know how lucky they are.
