My name is Obito.
But you already know that, don't you? And yet, there is so much left unknown. I'm an orphan, a failure as an Uchiha, a boy whose dream to become a ninja is mocked by many. Except for one.
Yes, I hear the whispers. The Academy Teachers labeled me as a future drop out. Even when I passed, and was placed on your team, I could tell that our sensei thought I wouldn't get far either. Don't misunderstand, he was always supportive; but whenever I failed, Kakashi was always quick with a sharp comment, Minato-sensei would just calmly sigh as if he expected it, but you were there to encourage me. And I believe that was the reason I fell for you.
I grew up with no one. My family was dead, and who would ever befriend an Uchiha who was the Dead Last? But you didn't care for that, and you always had a smile for me. Your smile helped me smile, too!
You would say that you were watching me, and not to hide my wounds; and I prayed for that to be true, but the only one you ever had eyes for was Kakashi...
And then, that fateful day came. Kannabi Bridge...It was that day I told Kakashi of my belief, that abandoning one's friends makes them less than trash, but I only said that for you. I knew, that it been you wanting to save Kakashi, I would've left him to die. No...Even then, I would save him, because you asked me to.
I gave my life to save Kakashi, knowing he was the only one who could protect you. I gave him my Sharingan, so he could perfect his Chidori. I had no use for Sharingan, not where I was going...and when you all left, I admit that I was scared...scared of dying, but angry that even in the end I couldn't be with you.
Waking up in that cave with Madara and the Zetsu's, I must admit scared me even more than being crushed under that rock. I recovered, training to get stronger to protect you. I hoped that Kakashi would protect you in my absence, and when the Zetsu came warning of you being attacked, I leapt up to save you. Maybe this would be my time to shine.
And when I got there...I couldn't believe it. Kakashi...using the technique I had helped him perfect, went against both the promise he made to me and the Will of Fire, he killed you...The Kiri nin were but an annoyance, as I awakened the forbidden power of the Mangekyo. I held you in my arms, hating the fact that someone as pure as you was slain in the war caused by the Shinobi.
I went back to Madara, and he explained Infinite Tsukuyomi to me...a dream world, where everything could be the way it should be. A world where you and me could be together at last...I accepted, giving up the name of 'Obito the failure'. No, at that moment, I became Tobi...the man who would kill thousands to bring true, everlasting peace to the world.
I didn't believe for a second any of Madara's ideals. I knew Infinite Tsukuyomi was a horrible way to go about it; combining nine demons and using their power to trap everyone in an illusion? It could never work. But the thought of seeing you smile, just one more time...
But I hate this...I know that I'm merely a pawn in Madara's plan. I don't want to be Tobi...I don't want to be Madara, either.
When I complete Infinite Tsukuyomi...and when we meet again...than maybe, just maybe, I can be Obito again.
But for now, I am No One.
