The next day, the Uchiha main house
Fugaku was nervous, hell he was sweating, that was how nervous he was, and do you know why? It's because his wife Mikoto kept throwing up, and he didn't know what was wrong with her, so that was why he was pacing back and forth outside his and his wife's room, right now a medic Nin was inside examining her. Some time later, the medic came back out "so what's wrong with my wife?" he demanded.
"There's nothing wrong with her" she reassured him
"Then why does she keep throwing up?"
"She's pregnant" and when those two words left her lips, the stoic man, the man who was the most powerful in his clan, fainted "oh dear, I probably should have told him to sit down first" she blinked a few times before shrugging her shoulders and stepped over the man and headed out of the house.
Later that day
Izuna was walking toward his brother's room, they live with Fugaku and his family because their parents were killed on a mission and the man decided to take them in, not to mention they were their nephews, when he reached the room he slid open the door without bothering to knock, "hey Madara I-" he cut himself off when he saw the image in front of him, it was Madara, dripping wet with nothing but a white fluffy towel tied loosely around his waist, his face heated up as a image of him doing something nasty to his older brother appeared in his head.
"You ok Izuna?" Madara asked, a slight pink blush adorning his face "you're spacing out on me"
"Huh?" he snapped out of his thoughts "oh, yeah. Erm Mirai is waiting outside for you"
"Ok, now get out of my room so I can change" he practically threw the younger teen out of the room before slamming the door closed, but Izuna didn't notice any of these as he only had one thought in his mind 'did I see Madara blush? But he those look cute', but if he had looked a little closer, he would have seen the tattoo of a snarling wolf on top of his right arm, which he forgot to cover with a Genjutsu.
5 minutes later in the living room
"So what did you want Mirai?" Madara asked
"Well, Dad wanted to see you" Mirai said
"Any reasons why?" he asked as they walked out of the house and towards the Hokage tower.
"He didn't say, he just told me to tell you that it's urgent" he shrugged his shoulders.
"Well ok then" the walked in a comfortable silence before reaching the Hokage's office, and went in.
"He's here"
"Ok, thanks son, you're dismissed" Minato said, Mirai nodded before leaving the room, once the door closed with a click, Madara started talking.
"So what's up?" Madara asked
"I have a mission for you"
"Why didn't you just summon me or anything?" he quirked his right eyebrow.
"I just wanted someone to distract me from my paperwork" he grinned while Madara sweatdropped before sighing at his childish behaviour sometimes.
"So what did you want?"
"I want you to locate Jiraiya and his apprentices for me and bring them back"
"Whatever for?"
"That's a secret" he said seriously
"Ok then, but why just me? Why don't you get an Anbu to do it or something?"
"We need all of them right now since there are a lot of high ranked missions to be done and you're the only hunter nin that is available"
"Fine" he sighed "so when do I leave?"
"Right now and you'll go as a Chunnin instead since this is only a C-ranked mission. Dismissed" Madara bowed before disappearing.
Back at the Uchiha main house
The family were all sat around the dining room table; there was an awkward silence as they waited for Madara to appear, which he did a few seconds later, "err, what's with the silence?" He asked
"We have some news to tell you but we were just waiting for you" Fugaku said
"So what is it?"
"I'm pregnant!" Mikoto grinned; everything was stone cold silence until Sasuke broke it.
"So I'm going to have a baby brother or sister?" Sasuke said a grin on his face.
"Congratulations auntie" Izuna said
"I hope they're not going to be as worst as Sasuke when he was little" Itachi said while Sasuke glared at him.
"That's great news" Madara smiled
"So now that that is out of the way, what did the Hokage want to see you about?" Fugaku asked, the atmosphere turning back to normal.
"Well, I have a mission. I have to locate Jiraiya and his apprentices and bring them back"
"Why are you going on your own?" Itachi asked
"How should I know" he shrugged his shoulders "I need to pack because I have to leave immediately" and with that he walked towards his room.
2 weeks later
Madara was annoyed, wait scratch that, he was pissed, and he had a very good reason to be, he had been travelling for 2 weeks now and he still couldn't find that old pervert and his apprentices, but to add to the annoyance, he was ambushed a lot by bandits 'after this is over, I'm making Minato buy me anything I want for a whole year' he thought bitterly, after sometime he finally arrived in the next village, the Tea village, 'if they're not here I'm going to kill the next person I see'. And with that he entered the village when he showed the guards his passport, he walked around the places he knew the sannin would be and finally found him peeping in the women's hot spring 'pay back time' he smirked evilly as he transformed into a women and took a big breath before screaming "There's a pervert!" the reaction was spontaneous as the women in the bath screamed and broke the wooden wall down, each one wearing a pissed off expression and Jiraiya a panicked one.
A few minutes and several beatings later, we see Jiraiya and Madara in a hotel room, with Jiraiya nursing his wounds and glaring at the Uchiha, who was smirking at him.
"So what do you want brat?" Jiraiya grumbled
"The Hokage told me to find you and your apprentices and bring you back to Konoha" Madara said
"What did he want?"
"How should I know, he said it was a secret" he shrugged his shoulders "so where are your apprentices?"
"They're training in a nearby training ground" he stood up from the bed where he sat along with Madara "lets go collect them, then eat dinner before resting up and then we'll be leaving tomorrow" and with the plan set, they headed out of the hotel, via the window. They jumped from rooftop to rooftop before landing in a training ground, where they saw 6 teens training with each other; they stopped however when they noticed Jiraiya and Madara were there.
"Hey Jiraiya-sensei, who's this un" the girly blond asked, they were obviously male judging by their voice.
"This is Madara Uchiha; apparently we have to go back to Konoha" he said seriously "Madara these are my apprentices, Pain, Konan, Deidara, Hidan, Kakuzu and Zetsu" he pointed to each of the teens when he said their names.
"So why the fuck, do we have to go back to Konoha?" Hidan asked
"How should I know, the Hokage just said to find and bring you lot back" Madara said lazily.
"Ok, so when do we leave?" Konan asked
"Tomorrow, right now we're going to eat, then rest up before leaving" Jiraiya said "now let's go, where do you brats want to eat?" he asked as they started walking away from the training ground.
"I want to try the BBQ place that is a 5 minute walk from here" Zetsu said
"Ok then, let's go" Madara said "by the way, its Jiraiya's treat"
"What do you mean it's my treat you little brat?" Jiraiya shouted
"It's the least you can do after I sent 2 weeks looking for you, and not to mention all the bandits that kept attacking me" he glared evilly at the man, who cringed under it, much to his student's amusement.
They arrived at the place before entering and were led to a table by a waitress, they all looked at the menu for sometime before ordering, and they talked while they waited for their food.
"So kid, why did Minato just send you?" Jiraiya asked after getting out of his funk "I mean seriously, shouldn't he of sent Anbus instead, or the whole team?"
"He said that the Anbus are all busy with high ranked missions and I don't know why he just sent me without my team" Madara said before turning towards the other teens "so how long have you been the pervert's apprentice" he ignored the glare sent his way by said man.
"It's ok we guess," Pain sighed "apart from the fact that he keeps disappearing to do some research"
"Same old same old I guess" he sighed
"So what is Konoha like?" Konan asked curiously as her friends also leaned closer to hear the answer.
"Well, it's quite a noisy village and sometimes you get caught in a prank, so be careful while you're there" he warned "but besides that everyone's quite nice, but try to avoid some of them as they can be sadist"
"Sounds like a lively village un" Deidara said
"It is" he agreed, just as the waitress appeared with their food before leaving, the group ate their food before leaving and going back to their rooms, Jiraiya reluctantly paying the bill, Madara said he was going to contact the Hokage to tell him he found them, he quickly summoned a white tiger cub, with golden eyes and the others were amazed that he didn't use any hand signs.
"Hey Madara, what you need?" The tiger asked
"Hey Tomoki, can you give a message to the Hokage telling him that I found Jiraiya and his apprentices and will be arriving back in Konoha within 3 days, also tell him that he has to buy me whatever I want for a whole year" the group sweatdropped at the last part.
"Sure thing boss, so where's my payment?" he demanded
"Here you go" he took out a piece of raw steak out of no way and threw it to the tiger, which caught it in its mouth before disappearing.
"How did you summon without hand signs?" Jiraiya asked
"A lot of training" he said before yawning, "Well I'm going to bed, see you guys in the morning"
