Hello! This is a little work I imaginated while writting another history

I don´t own Naruto

Hashirama was a boy, son of a knight , the first time he dared to go to the enchanted forest of which everyone spoke . It was said to be inhabited by strange, deformed, ugly creatures, whose magic would shake the bravest hero. His father, Butsuma Senju , was a gentleman of noble but low-caste with ambition, that sent his children to the battlefield to win victories since young , losing two in the process. While mourning the loss of his brothers, he decided to escape from that site. Maybe one of those monsters found him and saved him from having to live this horrible reality. He wandered in there for hours, until he decided that the rumors were only tales and searched for a river to drink some water.

"What do you think you are doing here?" asked a male voice behind his back. Did someone followed him from the village? He hoped no. The brunette turned around, finding there a boy his age… with long black wings on his back and red eyes. The creature stared at him for a moment and he stared back at it, until he got tired. At least he got to see one of the monsters he had been looking for.

"I just wanted some water, oh mighty guardian of the forest" he decided that be respectful was a very good way to get out of this alive.

"I´m not the guardian of the forest, that is my father. He lives in the center" his eyes turned a bit sorrowful. "And that water… I don´t think you will like to drink that. It will froze you over, you know."

"No, I don´t" the boy got away from the river and walked towards the other. "I´m Hashirama, and you are?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Don´t you want us to be friends?" the other stared at him a little bit surprised. "Then say it, you can trust me!"

"You are really strange… for a human, you know" commented the raven. "Anyway, my name is Madara and I´m… just used to play here. I have never seen a human so close before, but my older brothers told me they were being full of greed. You don´t seem so greedy for me, in fact you are quite gentle."

"Thanks… maybe your brothers just met the wrong kind of human. Where are they?"

"Dead" answered Madara, sitting on the floor. "There is just me and Izuna back home, the humans killed the rest of my family"

"Why?"

"Because they want this place… or at least that´s what Haruka-niisan told me before going to battle"

"Oh… hum… do you want to skip rocks? it´s fun" changed the theme Hashirama. He spent the rest of the day teaching his new friend to play, behaving like a kid for the first time in what seemed to be centuries. He returned home happy…

-Years later-

"I want give you something, Madara-chan" said Hashirama, a teen in his twelve. The young looking magical being moved his wings in a signal of annoyance, when his friend gave him something the object used to be incredibly stupid, human thing. Like that crystal necklace he gave him for his so called birthday. "It´s going to be something special, I swear."

"It better be" he grunted before turning around. "And? What is it?"

"This" he grabbed the other by the hand and pulled him closer, before kissing him on the lips. At first Madara didn´t know what to do, but soon he melted into the kiss and answered the other. When they finally broke apart, they were breathless.

"What was that?"

"A true love kiss"

And indeed it was. Madara couldn´t stop thinking about it for days. And when he was with the other boy it was as if all the worried in the world just disappeared…

-Years passed again-

After all the battles they fought with the humans, the guardians of the enchanted forest were reduced to only Madara. Izuna felt protecting a distant portion of the forest, under the sword of a white haired man, and Tajima finally died because of the poisoning he got from one of the king´s weapons. The humans could savor their win… but the most powerful of all the guardians was still standing in front of them, impossible to defeat.

"You are not going to get past me" said Madara, still with tears on his eyes from the morn for his brother and father. Butsuma Senju, that was there, looked at the beast (what he considered the raven to be) and for the first time noticed the necklace that hanged from his throat. The last time he saw that was many years ago, the last gift his late wife gave to Hashirama. Instantly, everything clicked into place. So his boy was in love… After their defeat they went back to the palace to treat Ashina-sama, the king, tired of his knights being rejected by an elf with wings, proposed something no one would ever even dared to propose.

"I will give my crown to the one that defeated that man" he declared in front of the people. "The one that brings me here a proof of his defeat will marry my granddaughter, princess Mito!"

"So this is my chance" said Butsuma, planning to talk to his son later. After returning home he saw Hashirama dealing with some nasty injuries on another man´s skin. He was one of the best warriors and healers, but was never seen in a battle with the guardian.

"Leave" he ordered the newly healed stranger. "We need to talk" Hashirama accommodated himself for the usual reprimand, but this never came. "I know about your little secret, you are in love with that elf with wings"

"What? I´ve never…"

"Don´t try to fool me, boy" the father said. "I know for a fat now that you love that thing… and the strangest thing is that it loves you back. I can tell by the way he always wore your necklace everyway he goes"

"And what do you want with that information? You always want me to do something"

"Lord Ashina just said that the one that brings him back a proof of his defeat will be the next king and have the hand of the most beautiful maiden on this kingdom… someone that will surely make you forget about that beast" the man smiled evily. "I want you to go to his forest and bring back that proof. Don´t kill it if you don´t want, just… bring back something of importance to him"

"No" answered the younger Senju with strength.

"I knew you will say that. The fact is…" he uncovered a bottle. "You don´t have an option. This is the same poison I used on another of those animal… I think it was your little thing´s father. In the next battle it will cover every weapon of the army. Just one little injury and say goodbye to your beloved canary"

"You… can´t do that" now Hashirama was sweating. To save his beloved´s life he would need to betray him. They would never be together again!

"Oh, I can. The only way you can save your pet is doing what I say"

"Fine, I will. But after that let him alone"

"I can do that"

"You better, or I will make sure once I´m king that you never see the fruits of your hard work" grunted Hashirama and left, he needed to be alone for a few moments before visiting his beloved and do something that would make him lose his angel forever.

-In the castle-

Princess Mito was having a good day, running around with her childhood friend Tetsuya and enjoying with him. They were so in love. She talked to her grandfather earlier, a little bit angry at his proclamation, but then some words he said confused her. The old king his sighed and smiled at her, just like when she was younger.

"It´s a proof of love, my dear, the man that will bring us the creature will have so much love in his hearth for you that will risk his life against it… just for you"

"I will bring you his head, Mito" said Tetsuya, very sure of himself. He loved that woman so much that he could even begin to fathom what would it do to him see her with another man. He was enjoying there per her request, because she didn´t want him to go without protection and was preparing him some equipment.

"I´m sure you will" she answered before taking him by the hand and dragging him in the direction of the castle. It was dark outside and they need to get in. "I wonder… will our love be a history forever for younger generations to hear? The princess and her servant that went to fight the worst enemy of her kingdom for her hearth?"

"I´m sure it will" they hugged, glad to be together.

-In the forest-

Hashirama called Madara since he entered the zone of the woods that definitely held his home. He remembered what he always told him. Tajima used to live in the center and his sons: Haruka, Misuki, Ryusei, Madara and Izuna, in the borders. Now that everybody was gone, his beloved still lived in his house. After a few more calls, he got his answer.

"What are you doing here?" asked the guardian, confused. "I thought you were going to stay at home and heal all the people that were injured in the battle."

"There weren´t so many" answered him, trying to appear to be normal. "Do you want to skip stones again? I feel like remembering the good old times"

"Are you okay? You are acting stranger than normal" asked the raven, but finally accepted going into the river and playing. In one of their plays he ended up over Madara. He lower his head to kiss him and… everything went out of control. In his mind, his only wish was to make him his, to love him in the ultimate way, before losing him forever. When the sun was rising the guardian felt asleep, exhausted but very satisfied, and Hashirama took out of his package a knife and cut his wings. He returned crying to his house.

"I did it, is this enough?" asked the brunette to his father, showing him the big wings.

"For now" answered the man, putting the poison away. He doubted that winged elf would be a problem ever again.

Madara woke up and felt the pain in his back. Tears came to his eyes, why did Hashirama, the only person that was left for him in the world, did that to him? He tried to get up, but the lack of the wings threw him out of his balance and the pain forced him to stay curled on the floor.

"I… would never forgive or forget this betray, Hashirama"

The long hared guardian went to the center of the woods, his father´s old house in search for a medical spell that could help him. He found it but… something else too. A way to protect the entire frontier without getting hurt.

"I will… not allow you take this place"

-The next day-

Mito was astonished, had that Hashirama Senju loved her this entire time? More than Tetsuya? Her own childhood friend was astonished when another man, someone that didn´t even know the princess well, brought the wings to Ashina-sama. And he could tell that guy only wanted the throne, he didn't love his wonderful princess.

"He doesn´t love you, you don´t have to accept, Mito" he said to her once alone.

"You are only jealous that he loved me more than you" she answered, convinced that the brunette would make her happy. She was going to live on a fairy tale, like any princess.

For his part, Hashirama was caressing the long wings, mumbling apologizes and declarations of love and pain. His broken hearth hurt more than anything, more even than the death of his brothers. The day of his wedding, he went alone to somewhere to cry his misfortune. He was found by Tetsuya, who was helping in the celebration.

"Too much sadness for someone that just won a price like the princess" he said in a cold way.

"Yes, but no for someone that just condemned himself to an eternal hell" the servant raised an eyebrow and left the plates he was holding, crossing his arms. "To do this… to win this for my father I had to betray my most precious person… but he was going to kill him. I did what I do to save him."

"So, this was a proof of your love towards her" he took the plates again and sighed. He felt pity towards that man. "Then… think of the princess as if she was her and make her happy. Please… just make her happy" and he left.

Some months after Mito gave birth to a son, a little thing that was her happiness… because she has come to know that her new husband was terribly cold… at least to her. At the same time in the forest Madara was giving birth to a daughter, a beautiful fairy whose wings were as black as his own used to be. Hashirama named his son Ashina for his grandfather and the girl was named Susume by her mother.

"You are the only thing I have left" mumbled Madara, happy with his baby in his arms. "You are never going to betray me, no? My beautiful little fairy" then he heard about the celebrations from the mouth of one of his animals. "A human festivity for Hashirama´s child, eh? Then I will have to take you to see your brother. After all you waited for him to be born."

The day after the birth, the kings showed the people their future king. The baby was in a crib made of gold, playing with his hands. His father didn´t seem happy and no one could tell why. From his neck hanged a black feather, symbol of his love for the guardian.

"I wish he was your mother…" he mumbled to the infant´s ear.

In the middle of the celebration appeared his old love, Madara, with another infant in his hands ad a terrible look. Everybody froze, the guardian´s magic was not something they wanted to face. The queen shuddered and her husband could only gaze at his love… he looked as beautiful as he remembered, even with that evil aura. The little girl in his arms was playing with her hands too, curious for all the things around her.

"I heard there was a celebration and was surprised to find out that I was not invited" mumbled the guardian softly. "But it doesn´t matter. I still want to give the prince a gift" he walked to the crib without anyone that stopped him and lied Susume down near the other baby. "Go on, meet your brother, you waited for him"

Hashirama heard that, he was the only one. He gazed at the little girl, his daughter and was tempted to run and hold her in his arms. The daughter he had with the person he loved… she was like a dream come true. But it was a dream he would never get a grip of, he lost that right when he left her and her mother. A few minutes later, the guardian retired his daughter and, cradling her in his arms again, he pronounced a terrible spell, leaving like the wind…

Mito ran away after that, looking for Tetsuya. She needed to find him, even after all this years he was the only one that could make her feel safe. He was washing some dishes on the kitchen, with a stern face. She ran towards him and hugged the man, for once not worrying if she was married. He put his arms around her.

"What happened?"

"The being of the woods… It cursed my… our son"

What will happen next? Review!
