A blue sky that's what Obito saw when he opened his eyes.

'So, this is the afterlife huh' he thought to himself, but why did he feel so alive?

Sitting up he noticed that he was surrounded by trees for miles. Clearly he was in a forest, but why did this afterlife have a forest in the first place? He was expecting more of a hellish landscape and for someone to be waiting to torture him, given all the sins he committed when he was alive, it would be a fool's dream to believe that he could get into the same place that Rin ended up in.

He stood up to stretch and gather his thoughts, seeing that his body was the same it had been before that bastard black zetsu used him as his personal puppet.

"I wonder if anyone else is here" he mused to himself

Overall this whole afterlife thing was peaceful there was no one attacking him, no battles being fought, no higher power weighing his good deeds from bad in front of him. It was simply peace something that he had never truly experienced in his life. So, what was he to do? Taking a deep breath hi finally decided.

'well I might as well enjoy it while it lasts right' he thought to himself

And with that he set out to enjoy the serenity he was surrounded by and just maybe he'd let his guard down, but even in death it's hard for a shinobi to truly let their guard down anywhere. The year has seen Obito grow his hair out to shoulder length looking as if it hadn't been washed since he first woke up. He was currently laying down under a tree enjoying an apple while letting the breeze soothe him. His thoughts took him back to his world wondering how everything went after his death.

'Kakashi I hope you and Naruto are safe' he sadly thought

Indeed, just before his death Obito had to admit that he was truly concerned for his comrades even if he had played a big part in their troubles. To think that he would be forgiven by the same people he tried to kill on numerous occasions in that bloody war he started.

'I've committed so many unspeakable acts there so why am I here enjoying this peaceful afterlife when I deserve nothing more than a hell befitting a monster'

This was a question he constantly had to ask himself when he had nothing more to think about or discover. Yes, he may have done some good in the short time he had left at the end of the war, but that little act of good could never outweigh his evil acts.

Obito smirked 'I wonder what Rin would think of the man that I turned out to be'

Thinking of the one he started he plans for after her underserving death how would she feel seeing how he turned out and what he did for the sake of true peace. All the thoughts in his head lead him to a deep slumber dreaming of nothing in particular.

Porlyusica was not a woman who liked humans, they were a petty, violent, war mongering race that racked her nerves constantly, but what she hated even more than that…. was human that ate her apples in her forest.

A tick mark appeared on her head when she finally found the culprit who was always eating her apples. Now she knew the forest didn't actually belong to her, but no one ever really came to this area save for those idiots at fairy tail who always needed someone to be healed.

Obito was an expectational shinobi, but thinking he was dead there was no reason to keep his skills sharp as there were no fights to be fought, he thought his days of fighting were behind him. That is, he felt some serious killing intent directed towards him.

He quickly leapt up and made distance between himself and whatever was out to get him. His bodily stiffened at the sudden movement.

'Damn am I really that out of shape' he thinks but pushes these thoughts off for later first he needed to deal with this threat in front of him.

At first, he was taken aback that the threat was an elderly woman who was looking at him as if he had offended her by his mere existence, but any ninja worth their slat knows not to underestimate any opponent regardless of age.

"You know there are better ways to wake someone up right?" he asks this woman who just keep staring at him

"Look I don't want any trouble I'm here to enjoy this peaceful death just like you although this is the first time since I've been here that I've encountered another person".

Obito estimated that he'd been dead for at least a year if the seasons were the same as home

Porlyusica was now thrown for a loop what afterlife was this man talking about? And why was he only walking around with torn pants on?

"So, you're the one who keeps eating my apples and what afterlife are you talking about? Porlyusica asks now curious about this strange man

"I wasn't under the assumption that any deity or person owned them and they're the easiest food to find as for your question this afterlife we are both dead are we not?

Obito asks, maybe she was new and was not aware of her situation.

Porlyusica was no stranger to weird situations so she started to think of all the possibilities as to why this man would think they are both dead. Maybe he was gravely injured in a battle that took place somewhere, he certainly looked as if he was in one, but she felt no presence of a battle taking place anywhere in this forest.

"Tell me why you would think your dead?" Porlyusica was going to get to the bottom of this one way or another.

Obito saw no reason to lie as there was no point in withholding the truth from his fellow dead resident.

"I died in the fourth great ninja war when I protected one of my comrades from a fatal blow". Obito said truthfully

Ninja war? What could he be talking about there was no ninja war held in Fiore or any of the other countries that she could think of recently. Also, he talks as if the war was consisted of only ninjas and no mages. That couldn't be right for there were no true ninjas in Fiore that weren't still mages.

"Young man I believe you are mistaken there has never been a war waged on these lands and certainly not one of only ninjas" Porlyusica was set on getting answers but all she received were more questions.

The same could be said for Obito how could she not know about the war? Even if she hadn't surely, she would've felt the event that shook the very earth. Something wasn't adding up, maybe this afterlife was connected to another dimeson that wouldn't be out of the question as he himself had access to another plane.

"Tell me where you are from?" he asks straightforward like

"This land the kingdom of Fiore specifically Magnolia town"

Obito was half right about a different dimeson, but was surprised she said she was from here

"Are you saying this afterlife was modeled after your homeland then?

"I'm saying that this IS my homeland, neither of us are dead you are in the forest just outside of Magnolia town".

The look Obito was giving slightly amused Porlyusica if she was being honest, he looked as if he just been hit with the biggest news he had even received. He never gave a thought to looking for any sign of civilization because truth be told he enjoyed being alone and not having anything trouble him although this is a bigger problem than he was expecting. One thing was for sure his life was about to get interesting.
