Chapter Four: Your Punishment
"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY SHISUI!?" The pinkette furiously screamed at the top of her lungs with a reddened facade. Oh, this was just too easy for him. The more he poked, the more he prodded, the more flustered she became, "You heard me Sakura! I said that you are in lo-" Sakura instantly slapped her hand harshly over the male's mouth the moment Madara was guided in the same room by Mikoto.
Madara's vision was growing worse by the day. Yet, he could still see that insanely pink hair even with his bad vision. Now he was thanking god that her hair was not black. Shisui then began to toy with the pinkette's hair and leaned in to whisper in her ear quietly. This only made her frown, "Shisui! That is SO mean!" He then leaned in and whispered again, "That bastard pulled pranks on me his entire life before he became moody!" Rubbing her temples, she glanced towards Madara, "Why not just go play in the snow then?"
Shisui then gained a playful gleam within his eye before pointing hastily at Madara, "MADARA! I CHALLENGE YOU TO A SNOWBALL FIGHT! THE LOSER HAS TO DYE SAKURA'S HAIR BLACK!" The pinkette then gained an annoyed facial expression, "No Shisui." Pouting a little, he then shook his shortened locks of black hair, "Ah-ha... the winner gets to snuggle with Sakura for the entire night!" Rolling her emerald based orbs, she then sighed, "Fine." Glancing towards Madara now, she then sweat dropped due to the fire now held within his eyes, "YOU WANT A BATTLE SHISUI!? COME ON THEN, YES, LET'S DANCE!"
This is when Itachi and Obito appeared, "Oh, we're going to participate too!" They both said in unison. Madara snapped his head towards Sakura, "SAKURA! YOU'RE THE REFEREE!" Blinking slightly at this, she could only shake her head and roll her eyes, "Kay." Walking towards Madara, she then noticed him reaching out and trying to find her. Used to this by now, she no longer frowned, but it still made her sad.
Taking Madara's hand within her own, she pulled out his gloves and yanked them on one at a time before walking to the coat rack and grasping his fur trimmed hooded Uchiha branded traveling cloak before placing it on him. Pulling him down to her, she then gave a deadly whisper, "You'd better not lose Madara Uchiha..."
She was now thankful that she had secretly been training him to fight without the use of one's eyesight, "Just remember, listen to their muscles. That will let you know the trajectory of the snowball..." She whispered before placing a tender kiss on his cheek. NOW he was ready to go! Sakura had given him all of the encouragement he had needed as he smirked, "You underestimate me." She found that he adapted quite easily to her training and picked up on it almost instantaneously.
Turning towards the three that now challenged him, Madara was about to announce he was ready, but Shisui held his hand up, "To make the deal sweeter... the winner gets to sleep with Sakura while she is completely... naked..." The pinkette's face then turned a shade of red she didn't even know was humanly possible as the Uchiha king then gained a competitive gleam to his crimson orbs that were so close to being consumed by the darkness, "Ah, you just sealed your fate Shisui. I have already won." Sakura was now fuming, "HEY! I NEVER AGREED TO THAT!"
Madara then lazily glanced towards her with a smirk as he slowly ran his tongue across his lips, causing her to blush furiously once more, "You have consented now. Meaning..." The bulky male then paused to raise a single finger, and considering he had memorized where everything on the pinkette was, he then traced his pointer finger beneath her chin before continuing, "-I win."
Sakura scowled at this, but knew he was right. He had won. Narrowing her emerald orbs at Madara, she then came to him and growled softly, "If you lose, I will kill you myself." This comment only made the prior god of war snicker softly considering he had been the only one who had ever seen Sakura to the point where she was almost nude and that is why she was wanting him to win so badly. Considering the pinkette had her back turned to the entire group, Madara then rose his hand and gave one of her breasts a lazy grope, making her sweat drop and blush madly before snapping around with her arms folded across her breasts, making Madara want to touch more.
"LET'S GO!" She hollered, the blush from being groped still fresh on her face as she stormed out of the castle. 'He has to stop touching me like that or my heart will damn near explode!' The pinkette internally complained as she bitched and complained over this childish game of tug of war.
All of the men were snickering behind her, including Madara, due to her complaining over the entire matter. Mikoto stood beside Sakura and glanced towards her as all four men then got into position, "All of them are infatuated with you Sakura." Sakura instantly gained an annoyed facial expression, "Believe me, you don't have to tell me that Mikoto." The pinkette then motioned to how they were all readying a mountain of snowballs. Mikoto and Sakura continued to talk a bit longer and that is when the pinkette remembered she had forgotten her jacket considering her teeth were now chattering.
Mikoto chuckled at this and left before returning with huge eyes, "Good lord! I was only gone for five minutes!" Sakura did not look impressed at all as she placed her own fur trimmed coat on that matched Madara's. After thirty minutes of waiting, the pinkette groaned before shouting, "ENOUGH!" All of them turned to look at her, yet, by the time they all looked up at their "creations"... there was a mountain of snowballs towering over all of them.
Sakura now stood in the middle of the four, "If you are hit, you lose and must give your remaining snowballs to the person who hit you!" Before she could even continue, the pinkette was then hit by four separate snowballs. Finally she would get back at Madara... so she walked up to him and just as he rose his hands to grope her, she then shot her hand out and squeezed on his "snowballs", making a single eye twitch in pain as his entire body tensed up, "Now BEHAVE." He could only nod and squeak out in a husky tone, "Yup."
Shooting daggers at the rest of the men, she then repeated the process with each of them; causing Mikoto to die of laughter. Huffing heavily as she placed her hands on her hips, Sakura then continued, "Now, like I said, if you are hit you are out of the running." That's when the pinkette realized NONE of them were paying attention due to how much pain they were in from having their testicles partially squished, so she just continued, "You may use any dirty means necessary that would benefit you. Now, begin."
The moment Sakura jogged out of the way, all of the men no longer seemed to have pain, but in the place of that pain was a burning fire of determination. That's when the pinkette noticed Shisui, Obito, and Itachi all activate their own Sharingan and smirk deviously before they all instantly turned on the Uchiha king and began hurling snowballs at him. Snapping towards Mikoto, Sakura then panicked, "Mikoto! I thought you said the Sharingan wasn't your own!" She then sighed and rubbed the back of her head, "Well, in a way it is. When I meant it wasn't lord Madara's own, it's because he is unable to deactivate them like the rest of us are able to."
Madara could only smirk at this turn of events as he merely dodged one after the other just by shifting his body. Snapping back towards the battle, Sakura clenched one of her fists in front of her body with a shimmer held to her emerald orbs, 'GIVE IT TO THEM MADARA!' Just as one snowball almost hit his face, he rose his hand, grabbed it, twirled around, and hurled it straight at Obito; who then smirked himself, "KAMUI!" The snowball then passed straight through the man and smacked straight into the pinkette's face.
At that point in time, Madara was sure he was going to die from the way blood began to trickle down from her nose, but he couldn't have been more wrong. Oh, she was beyond pissed off... launching herself forward, Sakura then slammed Obito to the ground, "WHAT THE HELL!?" Sure, she had already healed the damage, but no, she was not going to let up... well that's what she thought until she heard, "KAMUI!" She thought she was going to slip right through him, but again wrong. By the time she blinked, all of the men that could see now sported nose bleeds.
'What is their problem and WHY am I so damn... cold... FOR FUCKS SAKE!' All she did though, was stand and run to Madara as she shivered. She WANTED his body heat NOW! All he could see was blurry pink and sun kissed skin running towards him and that's when he realized... Sakura was naked. He quickly took his coat off and placed it over her body yet the moment he did... he was hit with one of Shisui's snowballs, "You're out lord Madara. Sakura did say whatever dirty means necessary." Fuck, she had said that.
Ignoring Shisui, Madara shot a glare towards Obito, "Return Sakura's clothing now." Nodding his head, he did as he was asked and all clothing was placed back on her body. Sakura then placed Madara's coat back on him and frowned, "I..." Madara sighed heavily and turned before walking away and Sakura snapped her orbs towards all of the men, "GIVE IT A REST! LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID! HIS PRIDE IS ALREADY SHOT, WHAT MORE CAN YOU TAKE FROM HIM!?" Snapping around Sakura then noticed Mikoto was gone as well... meaning Madara was in his room.
Sakura was now running as fast as she could until she came upon Madara's room and slowly opened the door, "Madara..." Merely turning his head as he stared out into the white blur with his arms folded, he said nothing. "Madara, I lo-" Sakura was then swiftly cut off by the Uchiha king's venomous tone, "So, who will you be sharing a BED with in the NUDE tonight!?" This actually made her flinch as sparkling tears filled her eyes before whispering, "With you... Madara..." Only hearing an angered scoff as his only reply, the pinkette then lowered her head, "I'm... I'm sorry to have bothered you..."
With that, she quickly darted out of his room sobbing before locking herself within her own room with a heart filled with pain. Mikoto sighed heavily as she walked into Madara's room, "My lord? The bath is ready." She could see him tightly clenching his fists out of anger until he spoke, "Mikoto, who is she sleeping with!?"
The maid blinked roughly a few times, "Huh? I thought she would be with you my lord. From what I was told by Itachi; after you left, she yelled at Shisui, Obito, and Itachi for making you feel the way you did and instantly rushed to be by your side. She did not want to betray the trust the two of you have built. Well, come my lord, it's time for you to bathe." He merely nodded, yet now felt horrible for the way he had treated Sakura.
Once Mikoto lead the lord of the castle to his rather large and spacious bath tub, Mikoto then ushered him in and smiled before whispering, "Have a wonderful bath my lord." He could practically hear the smile on her lips and was initially confused by this... well that was until he undressed and felt the wall to enter the tub before feeling a pair of much smaller hands than his own being wrapped around him. Slowly turning around, he peered down at the blurry blob of pink and she pressed her hands over his eyes and did the same thing she had always done for him.
Slowly opening his eyes, he did not even speak, he just swooped in and captured her lips before lifting her body into his arms so that she would wrap her legs around his muscular waist. The spark the two felt made them press even harder into one another as he began to tangle his hands within her long soaking pink tresses.
Once they pulled a part and Madara opened his eyes, he noticed they were even more blurry than before, causing him to sigh heavily. Sakura washed his mane of silky untamed thorns and body in silence and worry before washing her own body and hair. Helping him out, she wrapped a towel around his lower half as she thought to herself, 'I don't blame him for looking the way he does now... he doesn't have much time left until he is completely blind. Five more months and his eyesight will be completely robbed from him...'
As the two walked to his room, that's when she realized... most of her clothing was now in his room, she slept in the same bed as him, and she came to him for everything. Once they were both dressed they sat on the balcony for a bit whenever Madara's deep tone spoke something she never thought she would hear, "Sakura?" - "Hm?" He then tilted his head down and clenched his fists, "You... You are no longer my prisoner..."
That's when he heard her softly chuckle, "Oh yeah... I forgot about that. It's funny, you know? We share the same bed, come to each other for everything, and we feel each other's pain, happiness, and anger. So in a sense, what I guess I'm trying to say is, it feels like we're married..." That's when he shot his head up to look up at her blurry form, "S-Sakura... what do you mean!?" Letting out a breath of cold air, she smiled, "I think you already know the answer to your question Madara."
He could feel his heart rapidly beating within his chest, yet, felt if he got too close... she would be ripped away from him, so... he needed to break her heart. Chuckling softly, he then leaned on the balcony, "Too bad. You are far too easy to catch when your back is turned. Just like now." Was all he said, making the pinkette's emerald orbs widen immensely as she felt his broad chest against her back. She felt frozen as his hands began to slide from her legs, up to her stomach, and pausing at her breasts as his head pushed her hair to the side to begin suckling on her pulse.
Madara felt horrible for doing this... he felt no different than a beast. Pulling the pinkette inside, he then placed her on his bed before taking his cloak off, "As long as you give me an heir, I suppose I shall not mind walking in the darkness." Right as he finished his sentence, he appeared back on her and heard the jingling of his locket chains. Right then and there... he knew he couldn't bring her any harm. Placing a hand against her cheek he spoke softly, yet tenderly, "Sakura... forgive me..."
Placing his head down on her chest, the great and powerful Madara Uchiha sobbed, snapping her out of her frozen state. "You need to stop pushing me away god dammit!" Sakura yelled furiously as she pushed him up to cry against his chest, "WHY DO YOU DO THAT MADARA!? WHY ARE YOU SO SCARED OF GETTING CLOSE TO ME!?" He held her protectively, yet, held no answer for her, "People cannot show each other their true feelings... have you not learned that Sakura!?" Scowling deeply she then yelled, "BULLSHIT! THEN WHY DO YOU CARRY THIS AROUND AS IF IT IS YOUR ACTUAL HEART!?" Sakura then grasped his locket tightly, yet, then let it go.
Now it was Madara's turn to scowl deeply and yell, "BECAUSE IT IS MY ACTUAL HEART! WITHOUT IT, I WOULD FEEL LIKE NOTHING! THIS IS SOMETHING..." He then paused to grit his teeth before continuing, "THIS IS SOMETHING THAT ONCE BELONGED TO YOU! I GAVE IT TO YOU AS A CHILD, YOU RETURNED IT ONCE I BECAME KING AND YOU LOST SIGHT OF WHO YOU WERE! I THEN RETURNED IT BACK TO YOU, ONLY FOR YOU TO RETURN IT THROUGH THE FORM OF A BIRTHDAY PRESENT ON MY FIFTEENTH YEAR!"
Sakura's eyes were now wide before she stood and bowed, "I will be heading to bed now. Have a good night Madara." Madara then snapped towards her, "THIS IS YOUR ROOM! I PROMISED THAT I WOULD MAKE YOU MY QUEEN ONE DAY!" Sakura then lowered her head and chuckled, "You have forgotten Madara..." He was so pissed off right now that she couldn't see that he was practically wearing his heart on his sleeve before she continued, "I am no longer your prisoner Madara. I'm done... I'm going home..."
With that she turned to walk away, yet he bolted towards her and broke down onto her chest, "Please don't leave me Sakura, I need you in my life!" Sighing heavily, she didn't hold his head like she normally did, yet spoke out in a monotone voice, "May I please be excused now... I would like to go to bed..." He gave her pleading eyes that she honestly just could not say no to, "FINE! KEEP YOUR HANDS TO YOURSELF THOUGH, YOU DAMNED PIG!"
Nodding at this, the two then entered his bed, yet the pinkette fell asleep much further away from him; making him frown as he rolled to his side and laced an arm around her firm core before whispering something that made her eyes fly open, "Don't you know how much I love you...?" He spoke softly and sweetly into her ear as her eyes filled with tears, 'You dummy... it took you long enough...' - "Do not cry..." He spoke tenderly as he brushed away her tears. How could she scold him about getting close to her... when she was just as afraid to get close to him in the fear that HE would be ripped away from her.
Rolling over, she then whispered softly, "I'm sorry..." Rolling on his back, she already knew he would bitch over her having a top on. Undoing the clasp, she then took it off before pulling the Uchiha branded cloak over her body. Easing her body next to his, she noticed his hand over his heart and she gently took it within her own. Yawning gently, she then mumbled sleepily, "When... can I have my... necklace back...?" He then smirked, "The moment you find who you are again..." She knew what that meant. He meant, once the curse was broken.
The next morning, Sakura woke up only to see Madara was not in bed with her like he always was in the morning. Sitting up, she then saw him on the ground... writhing in agony. Emerald orbs appeared completely shocked as she launched herself off of the bed and grasped his head before pulling it to her chest.
Looking up to the rose, she then watched a petal fall and her eyes widened before filling with tears. She didn't care if she didn't have a top on right now... so she simply began to cry out for help as loud as she possibly could, "SHISUI! HELP!" It didn't take long for him to get there to notice another petal had fallen from the rose as he whispered sadly, "Sakura... get in bed... I will carry lord Madara to you." Nodding was the only thing she could do, yet she did not understand. It wasn't his birthday, so another petal shouldn't have fallen!
Yet, that's when she also figured it out. Whoever was doing this to Madara, was torturing him on purpose. Climbing on the bed as Shisui lifted the bulky male within his arms, he then carried the master of the castle to the pinkette and placed his head on the top of her lap. Madara instantly began to grip her leg tightly, which she knew bruising would arise from such a grip... yet, this was not his fault. He was in so much pain that he didn't understand as to what he was doing.
"Sakura..." Shisui softly spoke. Not taking her eyes off of Madara as her tears fell onto his face, one of her hands took his own and clamped down tightly, "Yes...?" Shisui could barely mutter this out due to the large lump that had accumulated within his throat, "We are almost out of time..." That's when she bent over and placed her head against the Uchiha king's, only to softly answer with, "I know Shisui... I know..." After that day, Madara's vision was even more distorted, yet worse; he was color blind.
The pinkette sat outside with the dead eyed Uchiha clan leader as she read a book to him, "Love is a powerful and mystereous creation that we all experience. However, how we chose to utilize that love is up to us. We must nurture that love, yet some love takes much time and work." As Sakura read, she ran her fingers through his long unruly mane of black and blue thorns. All he was trying to do was focus on her face right now, but it wasn't working. No matter how much he tried, no matter how much effort he put in, it was useless.
As she continued to read to Madara, she then felt the warmth of his tears hitting her wrists; causing her to slowly close the book and set it down, "Hey now, why are you crying?" Reaching her opposite hand forward, she then tenderly wiped all of his tears away as she heard him whisper, "I just want to be able to see your face again Sakura. I can no longer even see colors... so it's hard for me to even find you."
Her face became pained, yet knew he wouldn't even be able to see it. So, she had to change the subject, "Hey Madara?" - "Hm?" She didn't know how to exactly word this, so she glanced up to the sky, "Has it ever felt like someone is constantly watching you?" He honestly had become so accustom to the feeling of being watched that he had forgotten all about it, "Yeah. I've felt it ever since this curse was placed upon myself. Shisui, Itachi, Obito, and Mikoto never feel it so they all thought I was going crazy when I first asked them."
'Let me see if his answer will be different... yet this time... I will give him a moment of eyesight. I will make my transformation even more beautiful than Sakura. Let me see what he does.' The goddess thought to herself as she transformed herself into a young woman far more beautiful than Sakura. In a panic she then ran towards the castle and then lifted Madara's curse momentarily.
All Sakura could see was Madara clench his teeth for a moment and slam is eyes shut. Hearing the sounds of the panicked, "HELP! SOMEONE HELP ME!" The pinkette snapped her head to the side to see a gorgeous long haired platinum blonde with beautiful blue orbs running up.
Whenever Madara opened his eyes, he could see... clearly... and also heard the sound of Sakura gasp sharply, "M-MADARA!" Sitting up, he held a puzzled expression until noticing the young woman who was quite dazzling running towards him. Suddenly, Sakura's eyes widened immensely as the girl yelled, "OH, PLEASE KEEP ME SAFE!" She then launched herself within the Uchiha king's arms, whom caught her with ease, "Are you all right?" He asked softly as a slight blush appeared on his cheeks. Sakura, who noticed them staring into one another's eyes then stood abruptly before running into the castle.
The problem was, he didn't even call out to her... nor did he chase after her. The woman then sighed heavily, "Madara... I see you have not changed. You take love so lightly! You just broke that girl's heart and her trust in you! I had planned to release you from your curse and your clan from their fate, but now... THE TIMER HAS BEEN SHORTENED AS A PUNISHMENT! YOU NOW ONLY HAVE ONE MORE YEAR!" Madara's eyes widened in horror as his eyes then became what they once were, yet now, the time had been sped up so now...
Just as Sakura ran outside to leave, she noticed the girl had vanished and Madara was now on the ground screaming in pure agony as blood dripped from his orbs. 'What in the hell is going on!?' She thought to herself. Yet now was not the time for thinking. Rushing towards the Uchiha king with tears flowing down her face she screamed out, "MADARA! MADARA! I'M COMING! SHISUI! OBITO! HELP ME, PLEASE!"
The two Uchiha men appeared rather suddenly and noticed their leader on the ground as the pinkette held him while sobbing, "DON'T JUST STAND THERE! GET US TO HIS ROOM NOW!" They all nodded quickly and Shisui picked up Madara before flickering to his room and Obito merely looked at Sakura before shouting, "KAMUI!" Before they both vanished and he then brought them back out to Madara's room. Shisui looked towards the rose and then noticed with widened eyes that it only had three petals left, well, until one of them came cascading down before withering away.
Obito and Shisui could only make educated guesses as to what just happened. The goddess had just visited to see if their lord had changed, yet changed up her antics. Obito then clenched his fists tightly, "Sakura... can you tell us what happened?" Looking up as she held Madara, she nodded and explained the entire matter.
Shisui then chuckled and laced his hands behind his back, "I see... that goddess is cruel... first an old woman, now a beautiful young woman. A man is still a man. You cannot blame us for thinking with our second head if you get what I mean, Sakura. My guess is... by the time lord Madara wakes up... he will be completely blind." Sakura shifted her head towards Shisui, "T-That was the goddess transformed!?" The male of teleportation simply nodded, "Yup."
Looking down at Madara again she then whispered out, "Can you two leave us... please...?" The two Uchiha men could only nod. They knew all too well who Sakura was, how she felt about Madara, AND how she would always feel about Madara. Once the two were gone, the pinkette brushed away Madara's bangs, only to softly gasp to see all of the dried blood sticking to his porcelain skin that had no doubt... come from his eyes. Finally she felt anger, rage, and resentment towards this goddess for making Madara suffer the way he currently was.
Softly, she cursed the woman, "I hope you go through the same suffering you are putting Madara through..." She made this curse... not knowing what SHE really was in the first place. The moment she began speaking those words were the same moment that her eyes began to glow unnaturally; yet she did not know this.
Kaguya felt as if she had done the right thing. Madara had done the unforgivable. Sighing softly, she then shifted her white orbs as she looked into her crystal ball to see the bright glow of Sakura's eyes, "NO! IT CAN'T BE!" Suddenly, Kaguya's eyes began to progress towards darkness and she growled, "I thought I got RID of her! She looks COMPLETELY different from what she looked like in the HEAVENS! The Deity Indra!? The Goddess of all Gods and Goddesses!?"
Chewing on her fingernail now, Kaguya now stared at the girl, "No... it's a reincarnate! I have to be careful around that one... if she found out who she was, then she could overrule my curse at ANY TIME!" Indra had always been a thorn in her side. That was the only reason she now lived among humans now.
After killing Indra, she then asked the ruler if she could be the protector of earth and correct any misguided teachings; which he gave permission to without knowing she had been the one who had slain his daughter. "Now I understand." Kaguya's eyes narrowed darkly as she stared out at nothing, "BOTH of them continue to reincarnate!"
:::Flashback:::
"Kaguya! Hey Kaguya!" An adorable little girl with long, silky light brown locks and emerald orbs ran up to the little girl that was a few years older than her age with ankle long white locks and equally as white eyes then turned her head, "Oh, hey Indra!" Indra came to a stop with a cheeky and childish smile, "Wanna go make some flower crowns with me?"
Nodding eagerly, Kaguya couldn't help but always feel a bit jealous of how cute Indra was. Indra held her hand out and just as Kaguya was about to take it, she heard a sharp gasp coming from her mother, "KAGUYA! GET OVER HERE THIS INSTANT, DO YOU HEAR ME!?" This made not only Kaguya's face fall, but Indra's as well. "Y-Yes mother... I understand. Sorry Indra, looks like I can't..." Indra gave a worried frown at this, "Yeah, okay..."
Kaguya gave Indra a kiss on the cheek before waving and running back to her mother and shouting, "SOME OTHER TIME, OKAY INDRA?" This brightened up the little girl's face immensely as she nodded, "Okay! See you later Kaguya!" With that, Indra turned and allowed her angel wings to appears before shooting away. Indra couldn't help it, this place was boring... Lady Indra this, Lady Indra that, oh and how could she forget her father's constant boasting about how she was the Goddess of all Gods and Goddesses. BLEH!
The lesser white haired goddess then entered her home and her mother began to scold her in a hushed, yet venomous tone, "Lady Indra is a part of the main sacred family! Now, I have a story to tell you Kaguya." Nodding her head, she then sat down and her mother sighed, "Lady Indra is your blood sister. The main family, however, did not want you because you did not hold any of their sacred power for some reason. Since I am not able to have children, I took you in, yet they gave you your name."
"W-What? Indra is my little sister?" The white haired child's orbs were now widened with shock. Now this is when Kaguya's adoptive mother's face became darkened, "They dismissed you like garbage Kaguya. I have a job for you now. You are to get close enough to Indra to the point to where you can kill her. You must seal away all of your emotions. I am second in line to become ruler, so if the ruler's were to perish, then we would become the rightful rulers." For some reason, this did not sound right in Kaguya's mind as she muttered out, "Y-You want me to kill my little sister!? I WON'T DO IT!"
Right then and there, Kaguya ran out of her home - her ankle long white tresses violently snapping behind her in the process. Finally coming to the royal family's throne, the king looked down at her with worry, "Kaguya? What ales you child?" Tears filled her eyes and she took a deep breath before shouting, "WHY DID YOU GIVE ME AWAY FATHER!?"
His eyes widened in horror, yet the queen stood up and slowly made her way to Kaguya as her long light brown tresses glided after her before she knelt down, "Kaguya... I'm so sorry. I became very ill and almost passed right after your birth. Will you rejoin our family now? I'm sure your little sister will be ecstatic."
Why hadn't her foster mother told her that part!? Her mother had almost DIED after giving birth to her!? Nodding her head slightly, the queen then looked back at her husband, whom only smiled until hearing, "Mother! Father! I'm home!" The king then stood and cleared his throat before placing his hands behind his back, "Indra, your mother and I have an important announcement to make. Can you come to us?" The queen then chuckled softly, "Hagoromo, you are far too soft on that girl." Hagoromo then internally sweat dropped before clearing his throat, "Yes, well Haori, you are no better."
Indra finally ran in as fast as her little legs could carry her until skidding to a stop and placing her hands behind her back. That's when she noticed Kaguya, "Kaguya!" The young girl threw her arms up in the air as she squealed happily and ran to Kaguya before wrapping little her arms around her. Queen Haori then cleared her throat gently, "Indra... meet your big sister Kaguya."
The light brown haired child seemed entirely confused about this until King Hagoromo explained the entire situation. Nodding her head and grasping her chin lightly, she hummed softly, "That does make sense. With us Deity's, if the mother is dying after childbirth, the child is given to a new home - yet named by the mother who it was given birth by."
King Hagoromo had always knows that his youngest child, Indra, had always been extremely knowledgeable, kind, caring, forgiving, loving, tender, passionate, and powerful. Yet... he knew nothing about his first born and that slightly troubled him. For years on end, Kaguya would refuse to go and visit her adoptive mother. Those years ended up turning into centuries, yet deity's never died unless killed by another deity.
Indra was now beyond gorgeous and the pits of jealousy now burned even brighter for her little sister. "Hey Kaguya?" Indra asked softly and nervously as she looked into her lap and clasped her hands together tightly. The elder sister then turned her head to gaze upon her distressed little sister and just had to wonder what was bothering her, "What's wrong Indra?" The beautiful deity slightly stiffened up before relaxing, "What do you think... earth is like? Father is about to send me there to be sure that mankind has not become corrupted..."
Kaguya could only chuckle at this as she peered down at the earth, yet that was all they could do... look at it. Finally answering, she placed a hand on her little sister's shoulder, "Don't worry Indra, you'll do fine! I know you can do it!" Indra could only smile as if she were unsure of the words being spoken out of her sister's mouth, yet nodded, "A-All right... I'll be down there for quite some time, so if you need me, you know how to send word. Well, it's about time for me to head off then. Do your best Kaguya!"
As Indra made her way to her father, she hadn't known Kaguya had been following her the entire time. Once the young deity entered the room that was sparkling with golden particles, Hagoromo and her uncle Hamura, then neared her, "Indra, you have done so well for yourself and are so talented; yet with that talent comes love. We now pass our power to you." They both spoke in unison.
About to object, considering she figured the first born should receive these powers, King Hagoromo's hand was then placed over her right hand, transferring his sun symbol onto her hand. Her uncle, Hamura, then placed his hand onto her left hand and transferred his moon symbol onto her hand. She could feel all of the power surging within her body, yet with that new found power... came new found abilities. Sensing something sinister, Indra snapped around and allowed her emerald orbs to bounce around a bit - yet found no one in sight.
"Indra, it is time for your departure. Are you ready?" Hagoromo asked gently as she slowly turned back around. Nodding slightly, she then frowned, causing him to worry, "What ales you child?" Sighing softly, her shoulders then slumped, "I think sister should have gained these powers... not me, father. She is the first born after all." Shaking his head, he would hear nothing more over the matter, "Well, we will talk more in a roughly fifteen years. Do take care of yourself Indra." Nodding, she then vanished from the room.
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? FATHER COULD HAVE WARNED ME THAT I COULDN'T USE MY WINGS ON EARTH!" Indra screeched as she plummeted to the ground. Once her crash course had ended, she sat up groaning and rubbed her head, "Ow..." - "Hey, you okay pretty lady?" She then heard a child ask curiously, causing her to jump slightly.
At one glance of this child, she could tell he had a pure heart, "Ah, yes, I am quite all right." He sat down beside her as if he had never heard of stranger danger before and smiled happily, "Hey, can I ask you a question?" Blinking her emerald orbs rapidly, she then nodded, "Sure, I do not mind young one." That's when Indra noticed this child practically had stars for eyes, "Are you a goddess!? I hear they are SUPER beautiful!" - 'Spot on kiddo.' Was all Indra could think, yet on the outside, she chuckled, "A goddess? Aren't you a sweet one to be saying such things. However, no, I'm afraid I am not."
The boy asked her about a million more questions, which, of course, Indra did not mind at all... but she had a mission, "Well, I thank you for coming to my aid. I must be going now." As she stood and began walking away the young boy held out his hand in a panicked fashion, "WAIT! You never told me your name!" Turning around, she smiled brightly and crouched down to pick a flower before placing it within the boy's hold, "My name is Indra. What might your name be?"
Glancing around, he then noticed a rare flower that glowed in the shades of rainbows in the moonlight before handing it to her, "My name is Madara. It was nice to make your acquaintance Indra." Indra smiled sweetly and placed her pointer finger beneath his chin before leaning forward and pressing her lips to Madara's forehead, "I must go now Madara." As she turned her body around, her white cloak that was short in the front and long in the back; yet was lazily tied together so that she could wear a black tube top underneath flowed elegantly around her body as she turned and walked away
Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months, and months turned into years. She honestly hadn't found a single corrupted human being as of yet. In deep thought as she carried her preserved rare rainbow moonlight flower, Indra then smacked into something hard and fell to the ground. "Hn... who are you and why might you be walking on my lands?"
Blinking harshly, she then looked up and stared as if she knew this person from somewhere. She hadn't meant to ignore him, but she had begun pacing idly back and forth while tapping her finger on her chin. In her time on earth, yeah, she got one hell of a foul mouth, "AH, DAMMIT! I CAN'T REMEMBER!" - "I do believe I asked who you were." The male asked once again.
Sighing heavily as she twirled the flower within her hold, she finally looked into this man's eyes, "OH! IT'S MADARA!" Indra practically squealed with delight as she ran to the hardened man before rushing to him and leaping forward to wrap her arms securely around his neck, "You're ALL grown up! Look at you!" Indra then backed away and once she actually took that one glance, her heart began to ache. His heart was no longer pure like it was whenever he was still just a child. "I SHALL NOT ASK AGAIN WENCH! WHO ARE YOU!?" Madara then yelled ferociously towards Indra, causing her to flinch slightly.
"My name is... is Indra..." She spoke softly, yet loud enough for him to hear. Madara could have sworn he could have heard that name somewhere before, so he simply grasped his chin lightly, causing all of his armor to clank and clatter in the process as he thought deeply. Finally it came back to him, "Indra, it is very nice to see you again. Though, I must ask... how have you not aged a single day..." This was definitely not put in the form of a question and she chuckled and shrugged, "Good genetics?" Well, it was the truth, just not the WHOLE truth.
Madara figured he was not going to get the truth out of Indra unless he pried and now that he was twenty, he knew just how to pry and meddle until he got the answers that he actually wanted, "Indra. You will be staying at my castle to rest your body from your travels. You look as if you could use it."
She didn't want to have to hurt him, knock him out, or place him under a spell so that she could be on her way; so she merely nodded, "All right Madara." Reaching his horse, he helped her up first before he got on behind her and held the reigns. Motioning the horse forward, it did not take long for the two to arrive at the beautiful castle.
Madara was the first to jump down before helping Indra off of the horse. All of the guards instantly bowed in fear, making Indra frown before softly speaking, "Why is everyone so scared of you, Madara...? You used to be such a kind and gentle child..." That's when she heard a rather sharp 'TSK', making the long light haired brunette gently frown as he began speaking, "I am no longer a CHILD now am I? People change. You can see that I have changed, can you not?" Lowering her head slightly, she nodded, "Yes, I suppose so..."
It had been a year now and Indra and Madara were extremely close to the point where everyone within the castle walls believed that she would be made queen any day. It was clear to every guard, maid, butler, cook, gardener, and even the concubines; that Madara was clearly in love with Indra and Indra was very much in love with Madara. One day, Madara took her hand and began to lead her to a place she had never been before. Once they reached their destination, Madara opened a door and walked through, only for Indra to follow.
The moment that door closed though, she realized where she was. She was in his bedroom and he was... taking... his shirt... off. Indra tried not to stare, but found that easier said than done considering this man had a body that the gods could only wish to have, "Are you a GOD!?" Indra accidentally thought aloud, causing him to smirk as he walked to her and pinned her against a wall, "No, but I do believe that you are one. I want to know. Now tell me the truth."
Indra gulped harshly as Madara reached forward and grasped her hips before leaning in close to her face so that his lips brushed lightly against her own. A deep blush spread across her sun kissed skin and ended up accidentally nodding before whispering, "Y-Yes... I-I am the Goddess of all Gods and Goddesses..." This only boosted his ego by about a billion. He, Madara Uchiha, had just made a deity stutter.
"Ah... I understand, your father is trying to keep you pure. Even after wedlock. What. A. Shame..." Madara's deep and husky voice sent chills all throughout her body as he pressed his own tightly against her's, "I wonder how fun a deity would be to take in bed..." Madara was one crafty fox considering Indra hadn't even felt him untying her clothing and once her body was in full view, he drank in the sight, "Well, well, such beauty..." At that moment, Indra was pretty sure her heart was going to explode out of her chest.
He then glanced curiously at her face. Tears now fell from her orbs and this made his heart clench as he rose a single hand and brushed away her tears, "Indra? What's wrong?" Slumping her shoulders, she then whispered out, "You're right... I am not allowed to bare children or have intercourse even once I am married. If my father found out I was no longer pure, ESPECIALLY if I lost my purity to a human, I would be banished from my home and I would be cursed to live as a human for the rest of my days... but that isn't it."
Indra then took in a sharp breath as she continued, "Each and every time I died, I would be forced to be reincarnated and the human who took my purity would have a curse placed on them as well. They would continue to reincarnate over and over again in an endless cycle that would never end." Madara then could only smirk and lift Indra within his arms, "That just means we will get to fall in love over and over again. Does that about sum it up?" - "NO MADARA! I WON'T ALLOW YOU TO DO THAT! YOU HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME ONE OF THE GODS AFTER YOUR DEATH!"
All she heard was a snarky scoff, "Tell me Indra, what would be the point in such POINTLESS trivialities!? I would rather live a million life times with you... think of all of the fun we could have." She then began thinking over the matter long and hard until lifting her head slowly, "You're right Madara..."
That was all it took. Her telling him that he was right. Of course he was right, he knew that. Pushing the rest of her clothing to the floor, he then swooped her up and the two then broke the boundaries of gods and humans... they planned on creating a new life together. Her first trimester was not a happy one either. Constantly ill and placed on bed rest by the castle doctors.
By her second trimester, she had a small bump that could be easily disguised and that's when all hell broke loose. One night Madara and Indra were sleeping peacefully within their bed until her body simply vanished- waking not only Madara up, but Indra up as well. The moment she appeared within the Hall Of the Gods, Hagoromo stood there with a smile, "Good work down there Indra. I must congratulate you." - 'Oh no, oh no, oh no.' Was all she could think as she put on a fake smile that fooled her father entirely, "Thank you father, it's good to be home." - 'Like hell it is...'
Hagoromo placed a hand on her shoulder, "Go now, you must be tired." Nodding her head, she then turned and made her way back to her room; trying to keep her tears at bay at this point. Suddenly Haori appeared and placed her hand on Hagoromo's arm, "What ales you...?" He gave a deepened frown, "Haori... we must check Indra's purity..." Nodding her head, they both then made their way to their daughter's room and opened her door.
Haori was about to speak, yet Indra beat her to the punch, "I know why you're here. You're here to check my purity. Well father, I am with child right now. This child will be part deity and part... human." Haori's eyes widened at this as she turned towards Hagoromo, yet Indra continued to speak, "You know, I don't know why you insisted that I always stay pure. Human- Deity- we both have feelings and emotions that we can share with one another. I am ready to receive my punishment father."
King Hagoromo crossed his hands before muttering the curse and slamming his palms so hard on his child that she flew into the opposing wall and lost all consciousness. "Now, she is nothing but a mere human and will continue to reincarnate. Put her to bed now, we shall kick her out tomorrow. The Goddess of all Gods and Goddesses... has fallen from grace." Once Hagoromo left, the same ritual was then placed on Madara - yet Hagoromo, even as frustrated at this man as he was for stealing his precious second born child from him; he then bestowed a way for him and his entire clan to protect her. That being the Sharingan.
Once Hagoromo was gone, Haori rushed to Indra and she began to weep over her second born child. She was going to give her a grandchild that she could spoil, yet after tomorrow, she wouldn't even remember who they were. The moment Indra was placed in bed safely, Haori left and once she was long gone, Kaguya entered. Smirking down at her foolish little sister, who was now HUMAN, she pulled out a dagger; yet Indra cracked her orbs open, "Big sister...?" Kaguya merely nodded before saying three words, "Goodbye little sister." With that, Kaguya slit Indra's throat and out of anger, began stabbing her all over her body even long after she was gone.
Blood now stained her attire, hair, and skin; so Kaguya quickly pulled out a hooded traveling cloak before dashing away and began instantly washing her body in a waterfall instead of the family's bath. Once satisfied that she was clean, she then smugly walked back to see the sun rising and hearing her mother screaming bloody murder. Rushing to her with a "panicked" facade, Kaguya then shouted out, "MOTHER, WHAT'S WRONG!?" Haori did not even answer her as she yelled, "NO, INDRA! INDRA! COME BACK TO ME INDRA! DON'T TAKE MY BABY FROM ME!"
The mother sobbed out and Hagoromo finally rushed in, "Haori! What... is... it... INDRA! NO! INDRA!" That day, Haori and Kaguya were in charge of cleaning and making Indra look presentable. On this day, he even allowed a human to enter... that human being, Madara.
As Haori and Kaguya cleaned Indra's body, the mother sat there sniffling. Her eyes red and puffy from crying all day and at this moment, tears continued to drip onto her deceased daughter. Yet... Kaguya could not help but smirk darkly at her handy work. About to ask if her first born was holding up all right due to permanently losing her best friend and little sister, she then noticed the murderous grin and gleam plastered on her face. Slowly standing up, Haori then calmly spoke, "I'm going to get thread."
Kaguya didn't even acknowledge her mother as she left and once she was out of range, Haori broke into a run. Reaching her husband with panic filled eyes, he then gave her a solemn gaze, "What is it Haori...?" - "I THINK KAGUYA DID THIS!" Haori blurted out in a rush, making his eyes widen, "How do you know?" Haori shook her head, "I was about to ask her if she was doing all right due to losing Indra, but what I saw were the eyes of a killer and a smile as if she were mocking Indra for being dead now." This did not put Hagoromo at ease at all.
Yet once he inched over there, he noticed her laughing before she spoke, "You were mother and father's favorite, but now look! You LEFT ME ALL ALONE!" Kaguya could sense her father's mass amounts of chakra, so it was easy enough to fake it. Now, she began feign sobbing against her cold little sister's body.
The next day, Madara entered and people actually did not glare at him. Normally, they would have... but the death of Indra was far to great for everyone to grasp. Hagoromo spoke a few words about how one day his daughter would return to join them and they all gained a glimmer of hope within their eyes. Yet, then he explained that one day that one day... her lover too... would join her within the Hall Of the Gods.
Even though Hagoromo was still speaking, Madara couldn't sit still any longer and stood up before he neared Indra's stilled body. For the longest time the only thing he could do was stare at how beautiful she still appeared before he then placed a hand on her cold cheek and tears began to fall from his eyes. Soon enough, Madara leaned forward and placed his lips against her own momentarily. He couldn't help it, he fell in love with Indra as a child and once he grew to adulthood, he knew he had wanted to marry her. Pulling away shortly after he then broke down and placed his head on Indra's deceased chest that no longer rose and fell evenly to hide the tears he now shed.
All of the Gods and Goddesses watched this mere mortal man mourn over one of their own kind. They all knew right then and there all of these boundaries and restrictions forbidding humans and gods to love one another was far too foolish due to the picture right in front of them. Indra had found happiness with a human man... and yes it would be painful to watch him grow old while she stayed young and beautiful for eternity, but they think they had finally figured it out. Living without him would have been far more painful than living an eternity alone.
All Hagoromo could remember his daughter saying was "Human- Deity- we both have feelings and emotions that we can share with one another." Approaching the obviously broken male, he placed a hand on his shoulder, "One day, you and my daughter will reunite and create a far much stronger bond. I have foreseen this turn of events son. You will have many hardships though... do you think you are up for the task Madara?" Looking up with tears still streaming down his face, he nodded, "I will endure any pain needed for Indra..."
"Good." Hagoromo then grabbed Madara's neck and snapped it. Another casket was not even needed because once Hagoromo did this, their bodies vanished as he whispered, "I hope to see you soon Indra..." His pain struck face was all too clear and Haori was in even worse shape than him.
The next day, Kaguya entered the throne room with a solemn look on her face, "Father... I wish to go to earth. I wish to look for Indra and protect her by any means necessary. I also wish to watch over the people of earth the way sister did." Hagoromo merely nodded, "Permission granted. She will have no recollection of who you even are though Kaguya and her name will be different. She will be in human form, so her moon and sun symbols will be invisible to the naked eye - including your own. The only way you could figure out that it is truly Indra is if she exercises her powers." Nodding at this, he then sent his first born to earth.
:::End Of Flashback:::
"I finally found you... little sister..." Kaguya smirked as she continued to stare into the crystal ball. Walking away from her spot, she then laughed, "Oh, I have not forgotten Mr. Kizashi's proposal of me becoming Sakura's big sister. Yet, what he does not know is... Sakura is my blood sister. He might think Sakura is his child, but he could not be more wrong!" Laughing was the only thing she could do now. She had searched for Indra for so long and now, she had finally found her...
"I'm coming for you..."
"Indra..."
