I am so sorry to have kept you all waiting this long, but hopefully I'll get back on track. I've gotten a lot of support from you guys and hope you all enjoy this. Let's get started.

"Wood spear forest!" Obito shouted slamming his hands onto the ground causing several hundred sharp wooden spikes to shoot up out of the ground impaling the dozens of grimm before the two hunters. Straightening himself back up Obito smiled at his work, turning to Glynda he chuckled as she sat on the ground panting lightly. "How ya holding up kid?"

She sent him a glare as she struggled back up to her feet. "How aren't you exhausted? We haven't had any real rest in two days and have been fighting for hours, I'm already pushing my limits, so why aren't you even sweating?" She asked while doing her best not to let her surprise at his attack show, she'd been

Obito just shrugged. "I don't know, maybe I've just got more stamina then you." He smirked from underneath his mask loving the hate filled glare the woman was giving him. "But look on the bright side, we've only got another twelve hours until you exam is over and so far I've barely had to step in at all. You've been doing the work of a full team all on your own kid, needless to say, if you can last another twelve hours without becoming grimm chow then you're a huntress. Congrats." He gave her a thumbs up earning a genuine smile. "Now come on, let's get some rest. I'll keep watch."

The two made their way across the badlands of Mistral, only a few miles until they found a small over cropping rock that provided some cover from the elements as the sun began setting. It was hard to build a camp fire with Obito's wood style, Glynda on the other hand nearly collapsed the moment she rolled out her sleeping bag. Obito shook his head, she'd earn the rest. With his inhuman levels of stamina and endurance he could keep fighting nonstop for days without rest but she didn't have that capability, she was only human, still she had impressed him with her strength.

Pulling out his scroll he made a call. "Ozpin, you can go ahead and send the bullhead to our location. The kid is more than good enough to pass."

"I knew she would be, has there been any problems?" The headmaster asked over the feed.

"Not really, other than the higher than normal number of grimm in the area. We definitely put a dent in the population though, must've killed eight hundred of them over the past two weeks." The sage explained glancing over to the blonde who he could tell was out cold.

"Anything we should be concerned about?"

"Not really, could be in the future but I think the kid and I did enough damage to stop them from trying to attack with any real numbers."

"Very well, the bullhead is on it's way. Should be their in a few hours, see you soon."

With that the line went dead, then dialing in another number he smiled and waited as it rang. "Hello?"

"Hey sweetie, what'cha doin?" Obito asked with a big smile and pulled his mask off.

"Daddy! Mommy's brushing my hair before bed."

Obito smiled to himself at this. "Why is she brushing your hair before bed, won't it just get messy again while you sleep?" He'd always wondered about some of the border line insane things his wife did, which he only recently learned most women did. Brushing their hair before bed, covering the bed with pillows you don't use, putting a fuzzy cover over the toilet seat top when your just going to have to lift it to go. He long since figured he'd never understand his wife's reasons for the actions.

"Because she might meet a nice cute boy in her dreams." Naomi could be heard in the background.

"If any dream boys come near my little girl their gonna end up in the dream ground!" Obito's protective father attitude flared up.

"Boys are gross." Velvet stuck her tongue out in disgust causing Obito to smile in absolute pride.

"But your daddy's a boy." Naomi pointed out.

"Daddy isn't a boy he's daddy!" Obito couldn't help but laugh at this.

"There we go, ready for bed." Naomi finished up on her hair. "Let's tuck you in little lady." Naomi smiled scooping her up.

"When will you be home Daddy?" Velvet asked while in her mothers arms.

"I'll be home by the time you get back from school tomorrow, now how about a story before bed time?" Velvet nodded her head furiously causing her ears to flop around, Obito had to actively keep himself from fainting from how cute it was. "Okay let's see." Obito laid back getting comfortable. "I got the perfect one, this is the story of two friends named Madara and Hashirama."

"I already know this one." Velvet chirped confusing Obito as he tried to think back to when he could have told her the tale of the two ancient ninja. "The red eye man told me about it, he said he made a big fox fight the wood man."

Obito didn't quite register the words his daughter had just spoke. "Sweety, who is the red eye man?" He asked as gently as he could, his heart was racing.

"He's a scary man in my dreams, but he says he's not scary. He said wanted to get daddy but I told him that daddy was the toughest in the world!" Velvet explained, Naomi was frowning deeply from behind the girl while Obito kept a forced smile.

"You know what, I think I'm gonna come home a bit early bunbun. I'm feeling home sick, I'll be home to see you off to school. I have to go, love you both." Obito waved to his daughter who waved back before the call ended. "No fucking way." He seethed in pure hatred as his scroll shattered under his tightening grip. Standing up Obito formed several hand signs before creating a wood clone. "Stay with her until your back at Beacon, then inform Ozpin of the situation."

He didn't wait for the reply before he disappeared with Kamui.

The Scarlatina residence

Obito materialized in this and Naomi's bedroom where a worried looking Naomi sat stroking a sleeping Velvet's hair. "Obi what's going on?" She sounded terrified.

"I don't know, but I'm sure as hell gonna find out." Obito stripped off his gear before sitting on the bed. "I'm gonna use my eyes on her."

This made Naomi shoot her head up. "Why?! Won't that hurt her?" She held the little girl close to her.

"No, it's only harmful if I want it to be. I'm just gonna dive into her mind and see if I can find anything out of place. Afterwards I'm gonna put a seal on her to prevent access to her psyche by any outside force but myself." He reassured his scared wife. "Naomi, I would never hurt our little girl, I swear to you."

The woman nodded. "I know, I just don't understand what's happening." He could see tears start welling up in her eyes.

"It's okay, let me see her." He gently took the sleeping girl into his arms before closing his eyes, when he reopened them they were glowing red with his mangyeko sharingan. Gently opening one of her eye lids he made eye contact. "Tsukuyomi."

Velvet's mindscape

Obito stood at the center of a endless field of flowers, every color imaginable could be seen among the petals. He couldn't help but smile at the innocence needed to have a mindscape like this. Normally when using this genjutsu the caster would forcefully overpower to target and warp their inner world to what ever the caster wished, time and space were meaningless. This time however Obito used the bare minimum force to enter and made no attempt to alter anything.

Sitting down he closed his eyes and expanded his sense as far as he could, soon he felt two separate presences. The first he knew was Velvet, she was running around playing with some kind of creation of her own imagination as most did in dreams. The other however was far weaker yet at the same time far darker, opening his eyes again he stood and turned towards a large tree in the distance. It was oddly out of place, everything around it was full of color and vibrant, it however was clearly more menacing. Shadows loomed off of it far darker than they should have been able to, Obito narrowed his eyes at this.

"Daddy?" He heard Velvet call to him from nearby, he turned to her putting on a smile.

"Hey Bunbun!" He greeted the girl who wore a large puffy dress and a tiara on her head. Velvet ran over and jumped into his arms, Obito easily caught her and lifted her up.

"I missed you." She wrapped her arms around his neck causing him to pull her closer as well. "Wanna go play with my friends?" She asked with a smile only a child could wear.

Obito returned her smile before setting her down and following her arm to where she was now pointing. A small group of animated stuffed animals of multiple types stood waving at him, he shook his head happily at her. "I'm sorry Bunbun, but daddy is gonna go see the red eyed man. He lives up there right?" Obito pointed to the tree in the distance.

Velvet lost her smile and looked somewhat frightened stepping closer to Obito. Nodding her head with a frown, Obito nearly lost his smile as well but made sure to keep it up as to not scare the girl. "Yes, he's scary and always sits in that tree. Are you gonna make him go away?" She looked to her father.

"Yup, nobody scares my princess and gets to stick around." Obito held up his arm and flexed his muscle dramatically earning a giggle from the girl. "Now go to that castle over there with your friends and play, when you wake up the scary man will be gone."

Velvet nodded her head with her smile back before running off to the now present castle not to far away, a child's imagination is a powerful thing. Turning to the tree he began walking towards it with all semblance of happiness now gone from his face. It didn't take as long as it should have to cover the distance and make it to the tree, the physics of the world being different from realities, but such was to be expected within someone so youngs mindscape.

"Obito, it's been quite a long time." A voice he never wanted to hear again in his life spoke before a figure dropped down from one of the upper branches of the tree. "Though I suspect it has been far longer for you than me." The man before him smiled at him with red glowing eyes matching Obito's own.

Obito glared at the man with every fiber of hate in himself. "Madara."

Unknown location

Madara sat with his legs hanging off the edge of the of the cliff overlooking the dark pools the creatures of grimm were pulling themselves out of. "Salem, what do you want?" He asked never turning to look at the witch standing a small distance behind her, a girl who didn't look older than eight clinging to her side at the sight of the grimm below.

"Madara, please allow me to introduce to you someone very special." She gestured for the girl to step forward, nervously the child did as she was told. "This is Cinder Fall, she will be your newest apprentice from today on. I want you to train her to fight and become someone worthy of aiding in my plans for this world." Salem explained earning an annoyed look to appear on the Uchiha's face.

"And what, might I ask, makes you think I have any interest in taking a student? Last time I checked I also didn't take orders from you or anyone else witch." He spat standing to his feet and turning his glowing red gaze to the neutral looking witch, he completely ignored the presence of the girl who was staring up at him with a mixture of fear and admiration, something about this man screamed power at her.

"Please." The the girl squeaked earning a glance from the man.

"What was that girl?" Her blood felt like it had frozen when his red eyes landed on her, everything in her was begging her to turn and run.

"Please teach me." She repeated almost trembling. "I want to become strong, stronger than anyone in the world. Please teach me." She looked up at him silently, every second under his gaze made her fear for her life even more.

Madara stood studying the girl for several seconds, he had been about to refuse her plead when something happened. A small amount of chakra entered into his body along with the memories of a very interesting conversation. Madara hummed to himself before turning his attention back to the girl, a grin forming on his lips. "Very well girl, but know that this will doubtlessly be the hardest thing you've ever done. There is a very good chance that you will die during my training, are you still willing to be my student?"

Cinder took on a determined look. "Yes sir." She confirmed.

Madara chuckled. "Good." He turned his gaze back to Salem. "I'll accept the girl, but not because of your request. Now leave, I have work to do witch." Without a word Salem disappeared in a flurry of darkness, a wicked smile on her face. Turning his head to the horizon in the distance Madara gained a wide smile. "Challenge accepted Obito."

And there we go, hopefully you guys don't find me and lynch me for the long wait. Also to everyone asking Baz to update this story in his reviews, remember that he and I are two different people, still though I'm so happy to see that so many people enjoy this enough to ask for more. I'll try and update more often, though life has been crazy lately. Leave me a review and tell me what you all think. Until next time.
