Not my storie***

In the midst of the Third Great Shinobi War, at a meeting to hear their new mission, Kakashi receives gifts for advancement to Jonin; a special kunai from the Fourth and a medical pack from Rin. His other teammate, Obito, in addition to being late, supposedly from helping an old woman, has forgotten a gift and becomes annoyed at Kakashi when he dismisses him as useless. Obito boasts that once he awakens his Sharingan, the kekkei genkai of the Uchiha clan, he will surpass Kakashi. The Fourth tells his team their mission: they must travel through the Grass Country in the midst of a conflict between Iwagakure and Konohagakure to destroy a bridge. Along the way, the Konoha ninja notice that they are being watched from the trees by Mahiru, an Iwagakure ninja. Kakashi sees this as a good time to use his new jutsu, the Chidori.
Kakashi bolts away to attack their hidden foe. Mahiru, however, uses the Shadow Clone Technique, creating multiple identical clones of himself that Kakashi uselessly attacks. Mahiru uses the mayhem to attack Obito, who is paralyzed by fright, but the Fourth rescues him from harm. Meanwhile, Kakashi is attacked by the real Mahiru, who buries his katana deep into Kakashi's right shoulder. Kakashi narrowly escapes death with a timely diving tackle by the Fourth, who attaches a special tag onto the Mahiru's foot in the process. Assured of the team's well-being, and having transported them a safe distance away, the Fourth leaves Rin to care for Kakashi's wound, and instantly transports behind Mahiru using his Flying Thunder God Technique. Mahiru is shocked to have faced "The Leaf's Yellow Flash" (木ノ葉の黄色い閃光, Konoha no Kīroi Senkō?), and before he dies regrets that he did not obey the "flee on sight order" in regards to his foe.
The Fourth returns to find the team at each others' throats, with Kakashi calling Obito a coward for hesitating on the battlefield. The Fourth tells Kakashi to never again use the Chidori, because of its inherent flaw: Kakashi's eyes are not fast enough to see his opponent's counter, leaving him in great danger. After criticizing Obito for speaking without thinking, the Fourth decides that rest is in order. Disturbed by the day's events and Kakashi's abrasive behavior, Obito is unable to sleep and seeks out the Fourth to ask him why Kakashi acts the way he does. The Fourth tells him of how Kakashi's legendary father, Sakumo Hatake, also known as "The Leaf's White Fang" (木ノ葉の白い牙, Konoha no Shiroi Kiba), killed himself after the village looked down on him for rescuing his teammates rather than completing his mission. From that point forward, Kakashi adopted a mentality strictly adhering to the rules of the shinobi, which stressed the elimination of emotions and utter concentration on completing one's mission. The Fourth then urges Obito to try to understand Kakashi.
After Rin uses her medical abilities to heal Kakashi's wounds, the Fourth tells the team that they have to split up. The Fourth heads off alone, leaving the group to be led by Kakashi. Kakashi then leads his team further into Rock territory to accomplish their objective. Two Iwagakure ninja, Kakko and Taiseki, appear and ambush the trio. They manage to capture Rin and flee. Obito tells Kakashi he is going after Rin but Kakashi, as the team leader, decides that they should complete their mission without detouring to protect a friend. Obito then hits Kakashi, telling him his father was a true hero when he decided to protect his friends.Obito then goes off on his own to save Rin while Kakashi walks the opposite way.
Kakashi with Obito's Sharingan
When Kakashi emerges he attacks Kakko and manages to kill him using his fully perfected Chidori. More Iwagakure ninja arrive and use Earth Release: Split Earth Turn Around Palm to cause a further cave-in. Rin and Kakashi are forced to leave Obito behind as the rubble envelops him. Angered, Kakashi goes to fight his opponents. He activates his Chidori and prepares the special kunai given to him from the Fourth. Before the enemies attack him, Kakashi throws the kunai and then passes out due to a lack of chakra. Kakashi awakens to find their enemies defeated and the Fourth beside him. The Fourth explains that the special kunai he gave Kakashi alerts him when it is thrown. The Fourth then apologizes for not arriving sooner. The remaining team members cherish their memories of Obito and go on to destroy the bridge. From that point forward, Kakashi would become famous amongst all the five countries as "Sharingan Kakashi" (写輪眼のカカシ, Sharingan no Kakashi), thanks to the gift Obito had given him. It is also revealed that in the years that followed, Kakashi became more like Obito, losing track of time looking at Obito's name on the memorial and giving excuses that were similar to the ones Obito gave, and adopting Obito's belief that teamwork takes priority over following the rules. Kakashi visits the memorial stone located near the training grounds every morning in Obito's honor, making him late for almost everything.
