"Move your head out of the way!" Izuna said shoving his elder brother out of the way as to get a good look at the scroll. "Stupid little brat! You can't even read!" Madara retorted grabbing the scroll from the younger Uchiha's hands."Yes I can!" Izuna shouted. "Well then read this," Madara said haughtily. Izuna began to panic, he couldn't actually read but he didn't want to look like a big loser in front of his bigger brother. Madara smirked, busted. "Alright then! Now, you can sit on my lap and I'll read it to you. You can read along." Izuna gave a little HMPH before seating himself on his brother's lap.
Once long ago, the Great Sage, Soichirou, son of the Goddess Amaterasu and Susasnoo, had two sons, Shinobu (Endurance) and Shin (True). Both were gifted with the abilities of the Sage of Six Paths. Shinobu, the older of the two, born with the Sage's eyes: the powerful chakra and spiritual energy. While Shin, the younger, was able to control the elements. Of the two brothers, Shinobu was the stronger. But, Shin had a quick mind. Shinobu always took the offensive but Shin take time to ponder. The Great Sage watched his two children closely.
On the Great Sage's deathbed, the Sage chose Shin as his successor. Soichirou always thought that peace was the answer. He knew that Shinobu would use violence to get his means. Shin was the smarter of the two. When Soichirou died, Shinobu fought his brother for the title of Great Sage. They fought long and hard, days on days. Days turned to Weeks, Weeks turned to Months. And for thousands of years, they fought. And until this day, even though their bodies have long since decayed, they fight. Their descendants fought and will continue to fight until the end of time.
"The Old Sage is mean! He should have chosen Shinobu!" Izuna muttered pouting his lip. "What would a three year-old know?" Madara snapped. "And besides, this story is just some stupid old legend." Izuna still didn't look convinced. "Whatever.... kids these days have a BIG imagination." "HEY, NII-SAN YOU'RE A KID TOO!" Izuna screeched. "Taiyou (Sun), what's the matter?" Hanatarou asked as she entered the room with a worried expression on her face. Madara disliked the way his Mother called Izuna "Taiyou". It meant sun because he was always happy a playful and he knew for sure that the brat took pleasure in his "special name". Izuna ran straight into his Mother's warm embrace. "Onii-chan, was making fun of me! He called me a kid!" the little boy sobbed into his mother's arms. "Mama's boy" Madara muttered under his breath. Hanatarou looked at her eldest son with great displeasure. Madara stared stubbornly back at his Mother. "Madara, apologize!" Hanatarou ordered though she doubted whether Madara would actually listen to her. Hanatarou could have beaten that boy senseless so many times but he'd always get the courage to be disobedient yet again. She could never knock any sense into that boy. She sighed, Madara would never be conquered. "Taiyou, now you go play outside. Okaa-san, wants to talk to Bigger Brother ". Izuna hastily walked out of the room, sliding the door shut as he left. "Nekou (Cat), What have I told you about teasing Taiyou?". Madara twitched as he heard Mama call him "Nekou". Cats were tempestuous animals who always got what they wanted and never did anything unless they wanted to do it. He felt that the description didn't fit him. "It's not my fault he's a cry baby. And besides; boys will be boys!" Madara whole heatedly joked as he stood up. "I'm going too". He raced to the door stopping only to shout "YOU'RE DEAD, TAIYOU!!!!!". "Take Care, Nekou! And look after you're little brother!" Hanatarou managed to say before Madara was out of earshot.'Oh I will!' Madara though menacingly.
"Jerk, why'd you squeal on me!?" Madara asked as he gave Izuna a playful slap on the head. "But, Mama said 'you always have to tell the truth'" Izuna quoted. "JEEZ, Izuna you are such a child" Madara groaned as his sat himself down by the grass near the river. Izuna started getting teary eyed again. "Uh-" Madara began, he couldn't handle yet another cry-fest. "Oto-oto, I have this really cool trick to show you". Madara motioned for Izuna to have a seat next to him. Izuna wiped away his tears and did sat. "Watch". Madara's usual dark eyes turned a bright red with three spokes inside it and he looked at a fish swimming by in the river. "Fish, jump into my hands and I'll cook you up for dinner". The very instant that Madara finished his sentence the red fish that had been swimming jumped meters into the air and landed in Madara's open hand. "Wah, no way brother! That's amazing," Izuna said with astonishment. "Now, whatever you do, don't tell Mama," Madara whispered. "And besides we're not lying to her, we're just not going to say anything," he laughed as he winked. "Got it?". The sound of hooves could be heard in the next kilometer and the boys jumped up in excitement. "Chichi-re is coming home!" the squealed.
"Oto-san! Tell us what happened in the Kumo Organization!" Izuna cried out as his father came off his horse. "Settle Down," Soubujou said affirmatively. "Did the Emperor see you?". "Did you have to fight against revolutionaries?". "Are the princesses pretty?". Soubujou sighed, his sons were the wildest bunch of kids he had ever seen. "You two, stop bothering your Father. He just came home and wants to rest," Hanatarou said sternly as she pulled to the boys off their Father. Soubujou chuckled as the children tried to fight their way out of their Mother's grasp. "Alright, I'll tell you what happened AFTER dinner," he grumbled rubbing his hungry tummy.
"COME ON ALREADY DAD!" Madara screamed when everyone had finished supper. "Alright," the Uchiha elder mumbled in submission. "As you all know, I am the leader Red Cloud and I am the Emperor's trusted advisers." Madara took a look at his Father's ring on that was on his right ring finger with a red stone with the words "scarlet (or red)" carved into it. It was the symbol of those in the Kumo organization. He had always wanted to join the Cloud Warriors. The Cloud Warriors were the personal protectors of the Emperors from the Fire Emperor to the Water Emperor. They were higher classed the regular soldiers and far more powerful. It seemed like the ideal job and his Father was the ideal warrior. He looked up to his Father and wanted to be exactly like him. "I am the most powerful mercenary in the Land of Fire and I carry out His Majesty's orders. Lately a new terrorist organization has sprung up. They call themselves "Konohagakure" (The Village Hidden in the Leaves). I've managed to hunt down the leader of the gang, Mokuba Namikaze, but I think they'll find a new leader. This organization is spreading like wild fire". The children stared at their father in fear. Konohagakure, the gang bent on destroying the monarchy. Soubujou noticed their uneasiness. "But hey! There's nothing that your Father can't handle". "Alright, Nekou and Taiyou, off to bed with you two," Hanatarou ordered. The boys groaned and headed straight for bed.
As they lay there together, staring at the ceiling Izuna blurted, "Do you think that Konoha will defeat the monarchy?". Madara lay there in silence for a while thinking. He rolled over to look at his brother and confidently whispered, "If anything every happened to Mom or Dad, then we'd just stay with Auntie Fuori- well to be accurate 'Lady Senju'". "It would be so cool to live with Auntie Fuori, she never tries to boss us around like Mama. If we lived with Auntie then we would get new playmates. Cousin Hashirama and Tobirama seem pretty cool," Izuna ranted. "HOLD YOUR HORSES THERE, BROTHER. I wouldn't get your hopes up. Don't forget, Father is invincible. Nothing can or will happen to him and this family," Madara grinned. "Now go to sleep". Madara rolled over and looked at the Moon. Bless Mama, Papa and even Bratty Izuna. Let's hope things stay this way FOREVER he thought as he drifted off to sleep. This is would the last peaceful night we would have in a long time.
