Chapter thirty-sixth - Preparations
Madara and Izuna were preparing for leaving with a few other men, they headed for a meeting with members of the Senju clan. Everyone was trying to avoid their leader because of his bad mood, just mere thought about Senju Hashirama moved with Madara's stomach. Oh well, everyone, except Izuna. He was smiling, fooling around and making a shameless jokes,well, simply he tried to raised their mood, because everyone was so tense about this meeting with their rivals.
Yuko was sitting in the garden, with absolute indifference watched the sky, she noticed that above her was circling small falcon, kunoichi frowned when he landed on a tree next to her. She looked around if everyone else noticed him, Kawa was sitting under the sakura tree with her brother, they discussed the upcoming wedding, Yuko rolled her eyes, Shiro was so girlish when he was talking about this ridiculous ceremonial with his little sister. Nobody seemed to notice the presence of the Falcon, which had a little piece of paper in his claws, probably message. But for who? It is known that each falcon delivers a message to the person, for whom it is intended, so that when he landed next to Yuko, it must mean that the message is for her. From who? She smiled, of course, none other than Izuna, maybe his last goodbye before he leave the compound.
Yuko quietly stood up and walked to the falcon, as soon as she took the paper from his claws, the predator flew away. Kunoichi looked over her shoulder, whether the Netto siblings look at her or not, no, they were too busy with themselves, then she unfolded the paper and read the message.
Falcon's tower.
Yuko chuckled and made her way to the sibilings. She slightly coughed to get their attention, both of them raised their eyes. "My lady, may I have your premission to leave for a moment?"
"Where?" Kawa asked.
"Ehm, to the ladie's room." It was a little embarrassing for Yuko invent these absurd excuses.
"C'mon-" Shiro smirked. "You're kunoichi, I'm sure you can handle something like this."
"Well, I am not required to explain you anything-" Yuko created a fake smile for her upcoming husband. "But if you need so badly to know, it's about my girls' days."
"Oh-" A slight hint of pink appeared on his cheeks when he coughed slightly. "I'm sorry-" Kawa giggled like a little girl, then she nodded on Yuko so she could leave.
Hell, falcon tower was the highest point of the entire Uchiha compound. It probably takes more time than the replacing of the pads on the toilet. Yuko rolled her eyes, couldn't Izuna just choose any other place to meet? With her chakra, which she focused in her feet, she came to the tower in record time. In the highest tower blew pretty cold wind, it was a large room with no windows, all the falcons flew in and out all the time. Yuko was wondering if those flying predators can use chakra too. Yuko looked around, ah, there it is, the same falcon, which brought her the message, kunoichi walked over to him.
The falcon with yellow mustache around his beak apparently ignored her, just as Yuko walked up to him, he turned his back on her. Yuko frowned and snorted. "Shame on you! Where's your manners? I'm a lady, you know." She said in a low voice.
"Tsujin doesn't like women-" There was a cold and dark voice behind her, she turned sharply to face with Uchiha Madara. "He is used to men."
"Madara-sama?" The confusion was clearly written on her face, she still looked nervously around the room, Madara noticed her gaze and chuckled, it was clear to him she expected Izuna.
"Izuna's not coming." He smirked. "It was me who called you."
"You? Why?"
Madara went to Tsujin, with his gloved hand he stroked the falcon's back. "I wonder-" He began speak slowly. "Do you know how to break his seal?"
"What?" Yuko raised her eyebrows, of course she knows how to do it. But it was too embarrassing to talk about it in front of Madara. "Well...un- kind of, he told me- yes."
"What did he told you?" Madara asked in a low voice, eyeing Yuko with the corner of his eye.
Is he serious? Yuko felt the heat in her face, her cheeks began to change its colour to the bright red. "Un- you know...ehm... well-"
"Speak up woman!" Madara growled, clearly impatient.
"I have to sleep with him." Yuko blurted out faster than she would like. Madara stopped stroking his falcon, raising his eyebrows in astonishment and slowly turned to a blushing kunoichi.
"Is that what he told you?" He asked and Yuko slowly nodded. "Bastard-" Madara chuckled. "It's not about sex. It's just a couple of hand seals and a bit of your blood."
"Huh?!" Yuko's eyes widened. "That piece of junk!"
"Calm down woman-" Madara vawed his hand. "I'll show you the hand seals."
"Why-" Yuko was confused why Madara helped her? She was sure that he doesn't care if she will sleep with Shiro or not.
Madara eyed her down with expressionless face. "Izuna-" He said simply. "I don't want him to sleep with a woman who been in bed with all sorts of rubbish."
"..."
"Let's begin-" He said.
On her lips appeared a faint smile. "How generous-"
"Shut up and don't be weird." Madara growled. "And one more thing-" He added. "Do not forget what you have to do. We want his medical skills, so don't even think to do something to him, or kill him. Do you understand?"
"..." Yuko frowned a bit.
"That was an order, do you understand?" He raised an eyebrow.
"Hai, Madara-sama."
"Where have you been?" Kawa asked suspiciously when Yuko arrived back in the garden.
"I'm sorry." Yuko bowed. "Madara-sama gave me few orders about your security." Kawa smiled, apparently thought that her husband was very concerned about her security, it makes her happy, probably.
"Fine-" She said. "I'm going to say goodbye to him and then I'll go get some rest so I'll leave you two alone." Shiro nodded, Yuko bowed to her mistress, then prospective spouses stayed in the garden alone.
"You're not going to say goodbye?" Shiro said mockingly.
"No." Yuko pouted. "It's not necessary." Then walked over to the medic, she reached up a hand and ran thru his silver hair.
The spark flared in Shiro's lilac eyes, he did not expect from her this gesture. "What the hell you doing?" He chuckled.
"What?" she asked innocently. "I cannot touch my future husband?" She sat in his lap, now that she knows the secret of his seals, why not play with him a bit.
"Recently, my touches were disgusting for you."
Yuko shrugged. "It is time to accept my fate and come to terms with reality. Truthfully, I think you'll be a wonderful husband. Additionally, I am lucky, because you look more than good, you're attractive and intelligent-" Her hands began to travel down his chest.
"Continue-" Shiro smirked, enjoying her compliment.
"Well, what more should I say? I know you will not hurt me, so I think we will get along well together-"
"Shh-" He pressed his finger on her lips. "Does that mean you're ready for tomorrow night? "
"Well, if you are."
Shiro began to laugh, his gorgeous soft voice was back, the voice that had so bewitched her. His arms wrapped around her waist. "You don't think that I believe the crap you're talking now, do you?" He looked at her, his gaze was so deep. "When we met, you asked me how long I've been in this world. Let me remind you that I live longer than you think, don't think that I will leave someone like you to mess with me, little girl."
"What do you mean?" Yuko could feel the adrenaline in her veins ran faster, who the hell is this monster?
"Honey, I want you to understand so- about your Izuna, I first saw him when he was a baby."
Yuko yelped, her eyes widened and she wanted stood from that monster, but Shiro squeezed her tightly and did not let go of his lap. "What is it, Yuko-chan?" He smiled devilishly. "Is not that long enough?"
"What the hell you are!" Yuko could just hear the panic in her voice. "Get off me you freak!"
"Tch! freak?" Shiro smiled. "You said something else just a minute ago."
"How long?" She aske in a rough voice, frowned. "How long are you here?"
"I told you-" He grinned. "Long enough to be tired of this pathetic world."
"In that case, Kawa-sama-"
"Oh!" He rolled his eyes. "Kawa, Kawa...she's not like me. Her parents found Madara soon enough, so she's living in this world same as you."
"Huh?" Yuko was shocked. "But- but she's your sister, right?!"
"Not really." He said simply in a sweet voice.
"What the hell do you mean! Explain yourself!"
"Well, let's say that my parents were ancestors of Kawa's. I saw her grow up, she got used to me and started calling me big brother." He shrugged. "Our relationship somehow flowed from this."
Yuko stared at him with open mouth, then she took a deep breath and exhaled, put a hand to her forehead and said. "Okay, so, Kawa's not your sister, you're basically an old grumpy man and I've got marry you and live happily with you until you are satisfied."
"Well...yes."
"Great-" She smiled, feeling like in a madhouse. "That's...great."
Kawa was lying on the bed, frowning at the ceiling.
Knock knock!
"Who is it?" She asked towards the door.
"Shiro." Kawa rolled her eyes, rose from her bed and went to the door.
"What do you want?" She asked whe she opened them.
"You know." He frowned, his face was serious.
Kawa sighed. "Please don't tell me..." She closed her eyes. "Again?"
"Do not complain-" Shiro walked into her room, shut the door and locked it behind him. "You should already be accustomed to." Kawa gritted her teeth, her small fists were curled into balls.
"Why-"She asked quietly in a shaking voice. "Why did you always-"
"Be quiet!" He silenced her, then Shiro smiled smugly and whispered. "Now begin." Kawa tensed when he touched her arm, her tears began to gather in her emerald eyes.
"I will not marry the king! I Don't have to be beautiful, I just want a simple plain kimono, no expensive wedding dress!" Yuko shoouted nervously. The young maid bowed to her and left her room to bring some other kimonos. Yuko sighed and collapsed on her bed, then a loud knock on her door was heard.
"Enter." Red-haired kunoichi barked.
"Hi Yuko-"
Yuko knew this voice, she snapped her head to the door. "Reiko-chan?" She smiled. "Why are you here?"
"Well ... you know-" The young kunoichi was obviously nervous, with fingers she toying with the ends of her hair. "It's about Shiro-san."
"No, please-" Yuko growled and rose from her bed. "I don't want to talk about that idiot, I want to hear how are you and how is your mother. I'm still ashamed of how I left your house last time. Nor, I didn't apologized to her properly."
"Do not worry-" Reiko smiled, but still very nervous. Yuko saw that the girl had probably needs to seriously apologize, Ah God, why are some women so sentimental. Red-haired kunoichi sighed, rolled her eyes and said.
"Fine. Speak."
"I'm terribly sorry!, I- I very well knew who he was, but I could not resist. As I was enchanted, I don't understand-" Reiko sighed and threw her hands in the air. "I'm sorry, but even now if, if he comes to me, I can't refuse him. I don't know why, I guess I'm just a cheap whore!"
"No, you're not." Yuko laughed and placed her hand on Reiko's shoulder. "Didn't you smell a vanilla?"
"Yes, something in his scent remind me a hint of vanilla."
"That's why-" Yuko chuckled. "The vanilla deceiving senses, then you throw away inhibitions and that bastard gets what he wants."
Reiko inhaled deeply, then her mouth formed into big O. "Scumbag!" Then she shook her head. "How could he- hmph! Let's kill him!"
"We can't." Yuko said and pouted. "Madara-sama's order."
"Oh, when you speak of him, I have heard rumors-" Reiko nudged her friend in the ribs. "You and Izuna-sama, what's the truth?"
"Everything-" Both girls began to giggle. Yuko spent the next few hours with Reiko, it was nice to relax for a moment. All kind of problems, feelings and worries were put aside for a while.
Madara narrowed his eyes, in disgust watched his wannabe friend. "I'm glad that you have followed the agreement and you came." Hashirama smiled politely, but not one of the Uchiha brothers answered his smile. Senju Hashirama and Madara stood face to face, Tobirama and Izuna were just a step behind their own elder brother.
"So what's on your heart Hashirama?" Madara rolled his eyes.
"You know very well." Hashirama spoke in calm voice. "I'm sure that Izuna-kun told you all the details." Madara made a sound that resembled hn and tanned Senju continued. "I hope that you're not mad at that young lady, Yuko-chan right? But your eyesight-"
"That's not why we're here." Madara immediately interrupted him testily.
"What did you do to her?" Tobirama asked in a low voice. "Did you kill her?"
"That doesn't fucking concern you!" Izuna stepped in front of his elder brother, his sharingan flashed in anger.
"Please calm down-" Hashirama raised his hand.
"No Hashirama-" Madara smirked and activated his sharingan. "We will solve it once and for all. Right here and now."
Hashirama frowned while his younger brother reached for his katana.
Done! It took me longer than usual to update, ne?
