Summary
He dies, and when all is said and done in that inky after-death, Father hands him an old scroll, adorned with the Hatake clan symbol and a peculiar looking seal.
“One of my biggest regrets,” Father tells him, “is never getting the chance to introduce you to the clan.”
He wakes up into a valley he’s never seen before, occupied by silver-haired villagers with familiar, dark eyes. As the questions grow darker than the answers, everything Kakashi thought he knew about the Hatake is challenged, as is his hope for ever getting home.
---
Kakashi dies, un-dies, and opens his eyes to blue skies and a valley occupied by the peaceful Hatake clan. Though resting and healing seem straightforward, it’s anything but in this village where he’s viewed as a threat by most--not to mention his own, newfound clan attributes that threaten to swallow him whole.Series

Summary
Father’s clouded eyes narrow. “You’re… Hatake,” he rasps.
Not Kakashi. Just Hatake.
-
Father is alive. The Third War rages. And Kakashi Hatake does not exist.
Caught in the center of it all, Kakashi must unravel the caveats of a spirit bargain he never agreed to striking. Nothing is certain; everything is at risk. If he's smart, he might make it out the other side, but Kakashi has never been particularly clever when it comes to family matters.
