This one will be rated T, I think, since it mentions strong language. Maybe M? I'm not sure..

Anyways, this features another pairing in it, HashiMada, so yay. After the most recent chapaters I had been wanting to write something featuring the two, and after writing this chapter, I might write another with them in it!

...

"Lee, come here and take a look at this!"

"What is it Sasuke?" Lee asked while walking towards me, a confused look on his face.

"Look at this, I've found a picture of the First Hokage when he was a child!" I exclaimed, pointing at a picture in the old, worn book I had found.

Lee merely stared. "So?" "Look at him! He looks a lot like you!" At that remark Lee gave me a blank stare. "How?" I sighed and shook my head. Sometimes Lee could be so clueless, but I loved him for it.

"Look, same bowl cut, black eyes, hyper looking personality, need I go on?" "Well, he doesn't have large eye brows like me...and..HEY!" He said while an annoyed look appeared on his face. "Just because I have a bowl cut, black eyes, and I'm full of youth doesn't mean I'm like the First Hokage! That's like saying the guy right next to him blushing is an Uchiha because of his hairstyle, black eyes, and the scowl on his face!"

"Oh?" I said intrigued, looking at the person Lee was talking about in the picture.

This time, I was the one who stared.

"Lee...that IS an Uchiha." I looked to the small caption below it and my eyes widened. "Madara Uchiha."

Lee and I both looked to eachother, confusion and shock both seen in our faces. Lee obviously didn't know who he was, however I did. I couldn't believe such a powerful Uchiha could actually like someone like the First Hokage, especially with how he looked as a child. Lee, most likely was surprised that he had guessed that the person next to the First Hokage was actually an Uchiha. I started to chuckle at that thought.

"Hey, what's so funny Sasuke?" Lee asked, confusion lacing his voice.

I looked to him, a smile on my face. "Nothing. Just thinking that you're a lot cuter than the first Hokage.." My smile transitioned into a small smirk. "..but not by much, seeing as you two look a lot alike." At that Lee smirked as well.

"Well, I will say this, you look A LOT cuter than this Madara person, and I definately look a lot better than the First Hokage!" I started to chuckle at that statement, making Lee somewhat annoyed again. "That may not be the preferance of everyone. But to hell with what everyone else thinks of you, all that matters is that I love you."

His annoyed glare was replaced with a gentle smile.

"I love you too."

"Come on, we have to go soon. We'll be called out to the battlefield so you better have my back!" Lee smirked as he nodded. "Same to you, we'll be the most powerful shinobi by the end of this war!"

...

"Is that..?" My eyes widened slightly.

"Sasuke, isn't that the guy from the book? Madara?"

I couldn't even answer him, my eyes not drifting from the elder Uchiha.

How was this possible!? He should be long dead! Yet here he is in the flesh, or rather...the blue skeletal flesh.

"Another Uchiha? And here I thought they had all but perished, then again, the Uchiha are the strongest of all ninja, we don't die so easily." Madara said, his words having no emotion in them what so ever. "I will say this though, for an Uchiha, you are foolish." One of the arms of his Susano'o raised into the air. "Daring to challenge me is a death wish."

At that moment, I could've sworn I seen the corners of his mouth turn into a small smirk...or maybe it was a smile? I wasn't sure, either one made him look intimidating. "However, I have a soft spot for Uchihas, seeing as they are my flesh and blood." The Susano'o arm pointed one of the large, long swords it wielded at both me and Lee. "I shall give you one chance to run. It is obvious that you are frightened, nurseling Uchiha. Go and take that weakling with you. Or would you rather die an honorable death as a true shinobi?"

I glared at the elder Uchiha when he finished speaking, my Sharingan glimmering slightly. "He has a name you know, it's Sasuke! Sasuke Uchiha! Use it!" I snapped my attention to Lee, my eyes widening. This wasn't the time to be telling one of the most powerful ninjas to ever live to use proper manners! "Lee are you fucking nuts!?"

"Oho..this one has guts." Madara smirked slightly. "Reminds me of Hashirama, though I think he was a bit smarter than the boy you've caught...Sasuke, was it?"

I merely stared at Madara, not sure what to say. He actually said my name, and complimented, yet insulted Lee. I shook my head, slightly confused by it all, but through all the confusion I did know one thing.

I wasn't going to run. Even though the odds were WAY out of mine and Lee's favor, I knew so long as I was by his side, it wouldn't matter if I died.

"Sasuke, I think we should run!" I looked to Lee, shock seen perfectly on my face. "Look, he's just winding you up, making you mad on purpose! Don't fall for it! There's no shame in running from an opponent that is too strong!"

"So you are smart, I guess you can't judge a book by its' cover, eh, Sasuke?" The elder Uchiha called out, his arms folded across his chest.

I didn't answer Madara, I only stood there, looking at Lee, trying to figure out what I should do.

Should I stay and fight the most powerful Uchiha to have ever lived? Or should I run with my tail between my legs? I shut my eyes, bitting my lip.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when I felt an arm slip around my waist. "What the-!" "Sasuke come on!" Lee said, slinging me over his shoulder like I was a rag doll. "Hey! Put me down!" "No! And you can't make me either!" He said before he started to run. "I'm not loosing you!"

I couldn't believe what I had just heard. "Lee." Was all I managed to say before I shifted my gaze back towards Madara. The elder Uchiha had dispersed his Susano'o, apparently not wanting to chase us down. The smirk, or smile, I couldn't tell, was still on his face as Lee ran.

Madara Uchiha...

Why did you let us go?

What could you be thinking about in that head of yours?
