Summary
All Obito can think is that he’s already too late. He had a chance that he’s already blown. Minato’s eyes are glassy and bright blue. You’d think they’d look faded in death, but they shine with emptiness. And Kushina’s hair is still so red, red in a way that seems unreal. The rest of her is red too. And Obito had only just come back, and he was already too late- because this was his first unforgivable act.
Obito dies in the war, gets a chance to go back, and arrives on the night that the Kyuubi is released. It's a mercy, it's penance, and it's a life he doesn't deserve.
