Madara let out a sigh, as he lay in his room, he had moved in with the Senju temporarily because Hashirama wanted to keep an eye on the seal while he continued to look up more research on the demon.
He was currently occupying their guest bedroom, his thoughts were scattered everywhere.
Izuna was a mess, he was always coming over to the Hokage's house sometimes in the middle of the night, in hysterical tears asking to see him.
He knew Hashirama was no doubt getting a little irritated with this, but if he even dared to complain, he would make sure he suffered.
His outoto was always saying that he thought there were people coming after him, that there were intruders in the Uchiha territory.
The older Uchiha had demanded that the Hokage go try to sense if there was unwanted visitors around the area, but he found none.
However, Madara knew even if Izuna was emotionally and mentally unstable, he still wouldn't mistake traces of unwanted chakra signatures, so yes he was a bit concerned.
Izuna was in no condition mentally and physically to be the head of a clan right now, even if it was their own.
He wasn't going to tell him to back down from the position, no he had another idea but first he had to run it past the Senju siblings he lived with.
'You are weak Madara. A pitiful excuse for a shinobi. Rikudou would be disgusted with the Name of Shinobi.'
"Nngh… what the hell?" Madara muttered, placing a hand on his forehead as he tried to focus.
'Your kekkei genkai… even weaker, the Sharingan more disgusting than the Byakugan. The Rinnegan… is the true meaning of Divine Power Uchiha trash.'
"Ghnn shut up!" Madara snarled, his black eyes slowly morphing into red.
'What's the matter Uchiha? Don't like hearing the fact that you are a pathetic lost puppy? All bark and no bite.'
"Get out of my head!" Madara roared, a light reddish chakra glow starting to bubble up from his skin.
~Hidden Leaf Village: Senju Household (Tobirama's Study)~
"I still don't' understand this Tobi, why is this demon more powerful than all the tailed beasts? If it only has a fourth of the nine tails' chakra? The demon is a jinjuriki… but it's still considered a demon? I don't understand."
Tobirama rolled his eyes at his older sibling, "Honestly, are you completely stupid brother? It's simple to understand, I've also explained it to you several times."
"Yeah but…"
"Just shut up, I'll explain it again."
Hashirama sat down in one of the arm chairs in the corner of the room beside the window, waiting for his brother to go through it again.
"Okay, the Rikudou's third child was human yes. However, he had an ungodly amount of chakra. Limitless, never ending, unbounded… he also had two extra chakra points in his chakra system."
"Unlimited chakra… extra chakra points?" Hashirama asked bewildered by the statement.
"Yes, unfortunately that isn't the end of it… he had control of every known jutsu element."
Hashirama sat there, mouth dropping open as he stared at younger brother.
"That is the main source of his power. The fact he could control; water, fire, lightning, wind, earth, wood, storm, lava, ice… everything known."
Tobirama paused briefly, looking back at his brother.
"That was why he was so powerful, the other thing that turned him to what he is today… was his lust for even more power. The power of a tailed beast. His greed for power is what lead to this, after he had managed to take control of a small portion of the Nine Tails' chakra… when he tried to tame the beast chakra to use it. That is where everything went wrong… and the Sage of Six Paths had no choice but to merge that portion of the chakra and his child's own chakra together, bind them both into a single mortal body. Which was the powerful shinobi's own body, merging the chakra had caused drastic changes in appearance and mentality, in time he had no choice but to seal his third descendent away, he used that urn I had mentioned, cast a strong unbinding genjutsu seal to keep the power inside intact."
"So, what can we do for…?" Hashirama slowly trailed off a look of dread crossing his features, he looked over at his sibling and saw he shared the same facial feature.
"Madara!" the mokuton user cried shooting up from his chair and rushing to the door, upon feeling the massive spike in chakra inside the house, with Tobirama following him.
Running down the hallway Hashirama skid to a stop and threw open the door, fearing what he might see.
The older Senju was a little surprised by what he saw, he had expected to see Madara destroying the place, but instead he found the younger man on the ground sobbing hysterically as he clutched at his hair, red chakra was radiating off his trembling body in waves.
"Madara-chan?" Hashirama asked with concern, ignoring his brother's hold on his arm when he moved forward to help the shorter male, causing Tobirama to let go as he didn't want to get near the Uchiha right now.
The hokage knelt in front of the dark haired man and, lifted his chin with a gentle hand, slowly glowing red Mangekyo Sharingan turned upward to look at him, the Senju had the urge to close his eyes for a moment, before he saw the red eyes flicker back to black, then back to the normal Uchiha Sharingan, then back to black.
It continued like this for many seconds before Madara opened his mouth speaking in a completely terrified voice.
"S… She won't go away… I-I can hear her voice… it… it's driving me crazy. H-Hashirama… I-I can't control… my… my chakra. It… its overwhelming." He whimpered softly, leaning forward and resting his forehead against Hashirama's chest, letting tears fall from his still flickering eyes.
"She? Madara who are you…?"
"The… demon. It just… won't stop." Madara replied.
Tobirama's eyes narrowed at this statement, "A female? No, that can't be, it was said that the Sage's third descendent was a man."
"It hurts… my body… it burns… I don't know wh- Arrggggh!" the Uchiha cried, his body jerking away from Hashirama's and hunching over on the floor, more red chakra seemed to pour out of his body.
Tobirama's eyes couldn't help but get four times their normal size when he noticed the seal on Madara's throat cracked, breaking apart the black markings and separating the seal's power.
Moving forward swiftly he grabbed his brother by the back of the neck and yanked him to his feet before pulling him away from the man just in time as Madara's arm swung an arm right where Hashirama had been sitting, hitting the end of a bookshelf leaving five deep gouges in the mahogany wood.
The bookshelf creaked in protest before it collapsed, scattering books and almost falling on the two Senju who had fallen to the ground when Tobirama pulled his brother away from harm.
Madara slowly rose to his feet, his body pouring firey red chakra in every direction, the chakra it was almost suffocating.
When Hashirama lifted his head to look at his beloved friend, he saw the trembling of Madara's body, his red eyes, no longer in the shape of his kekkei genkai they were now red with a black slit going vertically down the center, like a cat.
The ends of his finger nails were now midnight black, two inch claws, and his teeth had turned back to the sharp fangs he had seen when he first changed before Tobirama had put the seal on him to repress the demon.
Another loud bang erupted through the room followed by a blinding flash of white light that caused both of the Senju to shield their eyes.
When the light cleared, Hashirama hesitantly looked back towards the Uchiha, now noticing that his normally pale skin had tinted to a very light grayish white, and a long black tail swished behind him and the red chakra had now transformed to a disturbing black mist that poured from his body, the chakra now seemed to smother the whole room in heat as the air in the room became thick.
Tobirama paused for a moment, before nudging his brother with his elbow and inclining his head towards the Uchiha when Hashirama stared at him questioningly.
The Hokage glanced back at the raven haired man, and noticed there weren't only one tail coming from his lower back, there were three.
The fur on the tails was pitch black, but the tips of them were a different color like the nine tails, but they were a dark crimson color, almost resembling the shade of blood.
Yet the tails themselves were radiating both black and red chakra, while the rest of his body released black chakra.
"I'm going to put you out of your misery." Madara spoke, but to both Shinobi's shock it wasn't the Uchiha's voice, it was the voice of a woman but there was also a hint of a deep echo likely belonging to the Nine Tails itself.
Hashirama stepped forward glaring hardly, "What do you want from Madara? Why don't you stop tormenting him!? He did nothing to you!"
Madara laughed at this, opening the palm of his hand a red sphere started to form before black fire erupted around it, surrounding the orb with horrifying flames.
"Fool, Madara Uchiha is dead. I will be taking his place, and I will unleash this power on this wretched world. Poor little Uchiha… crying and begging for me to stop. Oh I wish you could have heard his internal arguments you poor thing." The demon laughed.
Hashirama's eyes went wide in shock and hurt at those words, but Tobirama got him back to full attention when he yelled at the demon posing in Madara's body.
"Silence! I know the Uchiha can't be dead, if he was you wouldn't have control of his body. If he were you would have been freed from his body." He snarled.
"Hehe, very observant for a pitiful ninja. That is true in a way, but Madara Uchiha is already dying once I break his mind I will be freed. All I have to do is wait… it's only a matter of time. In the meantime I think I'll take the pleasure of slaughtering the both of you for trying to seal my power." The demon snickered, as Madara's eyes started shining even brighter as red chakra flames slowly started to come from his eye sockets from the glow of his eyes.
This was fun to write, except trying to think of a demonic appearence for Madara's body to take when he loses control. -_- Tails... really? God I know I could have done better than that... -_- I didn't want it to appear like a curse seal form, yet I wanted it to show some of the Nine Tails inside him... god damn I feel ashamed with that 'creativity' right now. XD Ah, well.
