Stifling her irritation at the still very invasive sensation of the medic's probing Madara sat there for what felt like hours before the woman finally pulled away, black eyes puzzled.

"Well, this is certainly something I've never seen before." The Uchiha woman by the name of Sosa hummed turning to face the head of their clan. "Madara-hime's stores are large for a female child of her age," - Said Uchiha child resisted the urge to narrow her eyes at the word 'female' because she knew for a fact her stores would be the best among the best - "but they are barely 1/4 filled."

Raising a brow Tajima sent a critical look at his youngest child, calculating to the highest degree even as he kept talking. "Is there any reason why her stores are so low?"

"Two Tajima-sama." Sosa admitted moving back to place her hand on her stomach. "The first being that she is a child and most likely both her stores and her chakra will grow with age so the depletion is to be expected."

Shifting her hand up towards her chest the medic pursed her lips. "And the second is that there seems to be movement from her coils into her network and while that is natural the leakage appears to be...intentional for the lack of a better word."

Purposely keeping her expression curious Madara was internally racing through possible outcomes of this situation.

She hadn't known that medic's could locate chakra usage within the body but it made sense especially since they could internally heal.

Now Tajima could do one of two things with that information.

One: Absolutely nothing. Completely dismiss any potential she may have because she is not male and not make the effort to make the most out of her at this very meable age.

Or two: He could have her sent to her mother for early training seeing as how she was the head medic and that was her best bet.

"It could just be something that happened without rhyme or reason or it could have been something done with purpose. It is uncommon for children to manipulate chakra so young but there can be circumstances."

Nodding once Tajima hefted her up and began to walk purposefully towards her mother's den.

Opening the door the Uchiha head located his wife amongst her calligraphy set and placed Madara on the floor where she began to crawl towards her mother.

"Sasana" He addressed with a curt nod. "I have decided for Madara's training to in iryo techniques to begin now, will you do this?." Tajima "asked" - but all of them knew a command when they heard it - black eyes watching the serene woman place her brush down and inclined her head to him.

"As you wish husband, she will be taught." Sasana said simply with an air of elegance and with a nod her father was gone and Madara was swept into her mother's lap with a sigh.

"I am not surprised that Tajima wants you educated but rather that it took him so long to take notice of you."

The dark haired woman said softly, stroking a single hand through Madara's wild hair. "He is always preoccupied with your brothers ever since Sosuke was taken down in battle."

The small child blinked at the news but otherwise felt nothing. Sosuke was not someone she had ever met.

"We will start tomorrow." She intoned after a small silence picking up her paintbrush, making her strokes precise and sharp. "When both of us are rested I will teach you to mend bones and knit cuts, how to save a life with a mere blend of herbs, and to assist those who need it as is my legacy to you."

Nodding once Madara stifled a yawn.

"Yes kaa-ch'n."

"But seeing as you are here I will teach you to write." Sasana began, pointing one painted finger at the first character. "Now listen closely."

They started off with the bare basics: anatomy. The human body was complex and if you didn't understand it how could you heal it?

Placing her down in her lap Sasana leveled her with a stern look.

"Being a medic is far more than using your chakra to fix the problem," She started off, hands folded primly in her lap. "it is knowing which herbs poison and which ones will aid you, it is knowing what salves and creams will ease the ache, it is knowing that you have the skills necessary to fulfill your duties even with your reserves bone dry."

Her spine straight with pride the Uchiha Matriarch stared down at her daughter with a sternness that surprised her.

"We will not be touching upon utilizing iryo chakra until you are prepared." Her mother said, tone staccato. "I will teach you to mend the body manually before anything else and hopefully you will be able to stitch and bind even the most gruesome of wounds."

Pulling a scroll out of her robe pocket Sasana undid it, splaying it wide so that it's contents faced the open air.

"This is the basic outline for a body neither male or female, I will explain which is what and it's function and by the time we are done I want you to be able to recite at least half of them to me." She instructed calmly as she set a well manicured finger against the frame of the figure printed on paper.

"This is the human body," She began and Madara tried to pull up any remaining memories from high school biology. "in a state of homeostasis."

Staring up at both of her brothers Madara took in their worn appearance and blinked.

"Hey, Dara-chan." Takada smiled wanly and he collapsed on the ground next to her. "Your onii-chan is finally back!"

Giving a small grunt Juushiro sat down as well, arms crossed over his bandaged chest. "Madara." He nodded as she raised her head to stare at him.

"J'shiro." She said addressing her oldest brother first. "Tak'da."

Sufficiently satisfied with the wide eyed looks both boys were giving her Madara allowed her youngest brother to hug her close to his chest and squeal.

"Awww, she said my name!" Takada cooed holding her small form in the air. "They grow up so fast!"

Shooting their brother a peeved look at the high pitch in his voice Juushiro's brow furrowed and he leaned forward. "She still has trouble pronouncing but her speech is recognizable."

"She said my name!~"

Stroking a hand down his chin the long haired Uchiha boy frowned. "In fact it's mainly the vowels she stumbles over, though I suppose she'll grow out of it soon enough."

"Oh I can't wait to tell kaa-chan! Little Dara finally able to address her aniki!"

"So whenever we're here we'll have to make sure to practice with her, I doubt she gets the proper stimulation with the cleaning girls."

Takada was practically gushing happiness. "Say it again Madara! You look so cute that I could just eat you-GAH!"

Now nestled safely in her oldest brothers arms while the other clutched at his aching arm she glanced upward at the dark look on Juushiro's face and she knew that Takada had just got on his last nerve.

"Listen idiot," He growled out lowly, dark eyes flashing. "I don't know what you're getting so worked up about. It wasn't like she said your name first anyhow."

Looking like he had just heard blasphemy Takada pressed one hand to his chest. "You're just jealous of the connection me and Dara-chan share with each other!"

Pointing rudely at the older boy the white headband wearing Uchiha stuck out his tongue. "Go on and tell him to get over his petty insecurities because it's me who you love the most!"

Both of them stared blankly at their sibling before Juushiro stood and headed towards the door.

"Let's go imouto, I wouldn't want you to catch any of the stupid he's spitting out into the air."

"OI!"

UGH. I haven't updated this one in a while. I'm mostly okay with how this went even though it's short. But what can you do? So Madara will be learning the human body! Yay for badass medic Sasana! What do you think of Sasana so far? What about her brothers?

What do you think about the chakra storage thing? I tried to go for the best of both worlds.

Please review and I'll update when the next chapter is ready.
