Chapter Eighteen
As Wasure and Yugito came back into the village, he saw many were watching. They were watching his every movement, he thought they were ANBU but he saw more and more doing the same. Some even looked afraid.
"Wasure is this normal?" Asked Yugito.
"No, this is kinda new." Wasure noticed a few Chunin who must have been enjoying their off day, tense up when he walked by. "This worries me…"
"Wasure!"
Wasure turned back to see Naruto running towards him with Sasuke and Hinata right behind him.
"Hey Naruto what's up?"
"Just wanted to check up on you, he heard this great roar and wanted make sure all of friends were okay."
So Naruto heard that…. "I'm fine, I heard it too. It sounded like a giant animal to me." Wasure hoped they didn't know as well. They would separate them of course, can't have the Wolf pissing of the Fox and vice versa.
"Really, I thought it sounded like a Wolf." Naruto looked cautious, man Naruto couldn't hide anything.
"You saw it didn't you…" Wasure hoped the village would catch on saying it like that.
"Yeah…" Replied Naruto.
"You idiot, what if you got hurt?" Wasure was worried for him, if he had gone berserk and hurt Hinata and Sasuke. There's no doubt the Fox would have made Naruto lash out.
"Sorry, we got curious and wanted to see the thing…" Naruto was afraid during it all, when he saw the second tail emerge. He saw his best friend go rabid and feral, he became a demon. Yet Naruto had some hope, he knew Wasure. He knew he wouldn't give in to anything without a fight, and thankfully he retook control. That's when Naruto realized why Wasure became his friend, he was like Naruto. A demon, the host of beast made out hatred. Yet, Wasure fought back. He kept his under control for so long. That inspired Naruto, if Wasure could do that with his beast. Then Naruto could do it with his! He began to smile for another reason, he finally had someone like him in the world.
"Naruto?" Wasure had noticed him staring blankly.
"Sorry, just zoned out. Anyway, so who's the girl Wasure?"
Wasure felt the need to just punch Naruto for just asking him so bluntly. Which worried Wasure who was afraid of a relapse especially here. He then the next best thing and activated his Sharingan, which he used to stare down Naruto. Who felt scarred of his friend when he did that.
"I'll answer that when you ask politely." Wasure saw Naruto then hide behind Sasuke.
"Naruto, I am not your shield." Sasuke just stepped aside.
"Sorry Wasure, what is her name?"
Wasure deactivated the Sharingan and smirked. "This is Yugito a guest from Kumogakure."
"Nice to meet you, Naruto. May I ask who you two are?" Asked Yugito who was slightly worried given how Wasure got a little sterner.
"I am Sasuke Uchiha."
"My name is Hinata Hyuga, nice to meet you." Hinata being most formal bowed, she had picked up that habit from Hiashi. When he actually was there for her.
"Nice to meet you both, Wasure can I ask you something?" She looked at Wasure and noticed he was more relaxed now.
"Sure."
Yugito leaned in to whisper. "Is Naruto the?" Wasure cut her off by stepping back and nodding yes. "I see." Yugito looked at the orange wearing blond and saw no signs of the Kyubi as Matatabi called it being more official with it. The only thing that stood out was his whiskers, a trait you get if your parent was the Jinchuuriki according to Matatabi.
"Why the whispering?" Asked Naruto.
"We'll tell you later." Replied Wasure.
"Wasure I need to ask something." Sasuke had heard Ino talking about Wasure and though he heard something involving the Mangekyo.
"Sure, what's up?"
"Did you unlock the Mangekyo?" Sasuke needed to know.
"Yes…." Wasure looked to see Sasuke sigh.
"Great you now way ahead me now. Can I see it?" Sasuke was curious about what looked like.
"When were far away from prying eyes maybe." Replied Wasure.
"Fine, well I'm off to train. I'll see you guys later." Sasuke began to walk off.
"Well anyway, I'm off the Ichiraku's you want to come Naruto?" Asked Wasure.
"You didn't hear he's closed for the day. Some family business came up." Replied Naruto.
"Dang it! Now what…." Wasure was thinking of a back up plan.
"Well, I packed some instant ramen. My home is just a good walk away." Replied Naruto.
"Wait, were close to the Uchiha district we could head to my place. No offense Naruto my place is bigger and offers more room for us."
"Non taken, I honestly have been wanting to see your new place for a while now."
"Thanks Naruto, you all just follow me." Wasure jumped on a nearby roof and was followed by the others. After ten minutes of running and jumping on rooftops, they arrived at the Uchiha district where they were met by silence.
"This is eerie…" Naruto felt like they walked into a ghost town.
"Yeah, I'm still not use to it." Replied Wasure.
"So, this is…" Yugito didn't see why Wasure lived here. This was just a place of the dead.
"Yeah, where the famed or infamous Uchiha clan was slaughtered. Only me and Sasuke are the survivors." Wasure sighed, he had to lie. It was a S rank secret, and only Yugito knew the truth.
"I'm sorry to hear that, why do you still live here?"
"Because I'm the clan head Yugito, clan head has to live in his or district or wherever the clan lives."
"Clan head of two?" Asked Yugito.
"Yeah, although I'm sure you figured out I have to deal with constant repopulate the clan jokes."
"Wait repopulate…oh." Yugito realized Wasure's predicament.
"Yeah, my life is going to suck." Replied Wasure.
"Well something-"
"FENRIR NOT NOW!
Wasure knew where that joke was going, he looked back at Yugito who noticed he had turned red.
"Are you okay Wasure?"
"Yeah…just give me a minute." Wasure took a deep breath and unlocked the door for the group. Naruto went to work making the noodles for them all, with Hinata's help. Wasure smirked as he saw Naruto actually give Hinata attention which made her blush like made, making Wasure laugh.
"Naruto, be careful will ya? Don't need her fainting again." Said Wasure
"What do you mean?" Asked Naruto.
"You'll see." Replied Wasure.
"So how big is this place?" Asked Yugito.
"Well, it is two stories tall so that should give you an idea." Wasure was walking to the small library the house had.
"Is this the normal clan head's home?"
"No, if it was. I would have taken Sasuke's old home. I don't know the specifics given I became the clan head not too long ago." Wasure began to look over the books.
"Okay then, are these all fire nature books?" Yugito began to look over them herself."
"No, here are some lightning and some Genjutsu ones." Wasure looked them over, then noticed an old one with the authors name crossed out. "Odd why would they do that?" Wasure opened the book and saw they wrote a note.
"To whoever is reading this, this is for clan heads only. The techniques in this book are some of the most powerful jutsus ever made. All of which were created by the exiled one, known as Madara Uchiha."
"Madara Uchiha…." Wasure realized he held in his hand a book full of moves from Madara Uchiha himself!
"What is it Wasure?" Yugito walked over to see Wasure having a huge grin on his face.
"Yugito this book Is by Madara Uchiha, he was the strongest Uchiha since their creation." Wasure truly could become as powerful as Madara.
"That's amazing, think you teach me some since all I can do is make flaming hairballs."
Wasure looked at Yugito and busted out laughing. "Flaming Hairballs!" Wasure could hear Fenrir laughing as well, he was laughing way harder than Wasure though.
"You should have kept your mouth shut." Said Matatabi.
"Yeah that may have been a good idea." Replied Yugito.
Wasure after laughing smirked and got up. "I will, we can't have the world going it's the Two Tails quick hide from her flaming hairballs!"
"You're not going to let this down, are you?" Asked Yugito.
"Nope." Replied Wasure.
"Fine consider payback then." Yugito grew her nails and scratched up Wasure's right hand.
"Oww, was that necessary?" Asked Wasure.
"Yes, if you are going to not let that joke go." Yugito nails went back to normal.
"Fine, you win this one cat." Wasure then had his hand healed.
"I think I won the last time by default since you went nuts, so that's two me you zero."
"You want to test that?" Wasure activated his Mangekyo Sharingan, Yugito made the mistake of staring into it. Wasure then blinked and noticed both of them were standing in a river of blood. "This is new…." Wasure took in his new surroundings.
"Wasure what did you do?" Asked Yugito.
"I think I may have found a way to keep my self in check…"
"How is that?" Asked Yugito.
"If this is what I think it is, I can place Fenrir under this and keep the rage in check until you or the others fight the other me…" Wasure blinked one more time and they both were back in the library.
"What was that Wasure?"
Wasure smirked. "One of my Mangekyo abilities, Tsukuyomi."
"So, it's a Genjutsu?" Asked Yugito.
"One of the best I think." Wasure had read that users could break people's minds with this.
"Is that why I still feel weak in my legs." Yugito began to fall just for Wasure to catch her making him fall with her.
"Wasure! Yugito! Ramens ready!" Naruto ran it to see Wasure on Yugito. "Dude I now your good with girls but seriously right here?" Both their faces went bright red.
"Naruto what's wrong…oh I'll just head back to the kitchen." Hinata saw what was happing and slowly backed away.
Wasure jumped off of Yugito, he then stared straight at Naruto and activated his Sharingan, then had it transform into his Mangekyo.
Naruto then saw himself be in a library to a standing in a river of blood.
"Naruto, I swear if you tell a soul what happened I will have you relive your worst nightmares over and over, understand?"
"Yes!"
"Good boy, now go ahead and help Hinata clean up then eat with her." Wasure ended the Tsukuyomi.
"Can I ask why?" Asked Naruto.
"She enjoys your company, and that may hint to something else." Replied a smirking Wasure.
"I still don't get it." Naruto was confused.
"You really are an idiot, she is into you!" Wasure saw the lightbulb finally go off it Naruto's head.
"She is…" Naruto then made the realization about why she fainted the other day in the academy.
"Yes, and let it be known. If you will break her heart, Fenrir and I will visit you and that Fox and show you what it means to piss of a true beast." Wasure's eyes were that of Fenrir's and the Mangekyo Sharingan.
"I understand completely." Replied Naruto who knew that was no empty threat.
"Good, now go help her." Wasure's eyes went to normal and looked back at Yugito who was smiling herself. "What?"
"Nothing just thinking if you had a daughter, the boy dating her would be so screwed." Yugito could see it now, some punk being chased by Wasure.
"Well that would imply I would get into an actual relationship." Wasure went to walk out of the room.
"Well if your friend is right you will have girls flocking towards you, might as well get use to it. Going to have to repopulate you clan somehow."
"Eh, who needs a horde when I got a girl who has a tiger made out of fire inside of her?" Wasure saw her blush a little.
"Nice one kid."
"Fenrir for once I'm not mad you said that, I'm just sad for Ino. How is she going to react to this? Wasure and Yugito walked out of the room to see Naruto and Hinata talking about something while they ate. Wasure saw Hinata mouth thank you to him. Wasure and Yugito joined them and witnessed Naruto eat three bowls worth of ramen with ease, it was normal for Wasure. Wasure knew Naruto ran off Ramen, then Hinata ate five bowls. Wasure went wide eyed along with Naruto, who fell out of his chair when she did it. Yugito just laughed at Wasure's reaction. Even Fenrir was shocked, the wolf saw Hinata as this quiet little girl that ate rarely. But then she does this…
"Well then Naruto I think you found something in common with Hinata." Wasure saw Naruto slowly get up and look in awe at what Hinata just did.
"Yeah you could say that…" Naruto was still in shock.
"Well, I gotta study some jutsus then begin the process of practicing them which is going to take a while." Wasure went to get up.
"Well, if any of them are good. I'll be joining you." Yugito got up as well.
"If you say so." Wasure went back to the library with Yugito following him. "Naruto, you and Hinata are welcome to stay as long as you like." Wasure picked the Madara book up and opened it to the first technique. "Fire Release Hiding in Ash and Dust Technique."
"Sounds like a form of smoke screen." Said Yugito.
"That can burn those who enter it…" Wasure realized this could be a great tool for him and Yugito, if they were swarmed they could use this and escape or kill the survivors.
"Perfect." Replied Yugito.
"You want to try that one?" Asked Wasure.
"Yeah, you going to?" She replied.
"Yeah, just going to see what else there is." Wasure turned the page to see "Great Fire Annihilation."
"That sounds ominous." Said Yugito.
"Yeah, I call dips." Wasure just found one of his new main attacks.
"If you say so, better right this stuff down so we don't fight over the book." Yugito looked around for a piece of paper and a pen.
Wasure just opened the main desk and found paper and pen. "You know it's okay to check the most obvious spot." Wasure began to write down the instructions for both the Ash and dust technique and the Destruction Technique.
"Well, time to start training." Wasure went to check the windows to see how much sun they had left, just to see it was almost gone. "How did today fly by so fast!"
"I guess we lost of track time." Replied Yugito.
"Wait… Wasure activated his sharingan and saw they had what looked like an hour of sunlight at best. "You don't want me to leave huh?"
"Wasure, what If you're not fully recovered. What if you relapse during training?"
"I see your point, fine I'll wait. You may have leave though, the Raikage may want you back where you are staying at." Wasure put the book up.
"About that…."
"What's wrong Yugito?"
"You see, I don't have to head back to the Raikage because Bee is outside the house. He's been following us since we talked to Naruto."
"Fenrir can you check for him?"
"Yeah, I sense him. He is watching us as we speak. He's smirking about something."
"So, Bee has been watching us all this time?"
"Yeah." Replied Yugito.
"So, what does that mean now?" Asked Wasure
"As long as Lord Raikage gets reports from Bee, I can stay and go wherever as long as Bee is with me."
"Fine, let me go ready one of the guest rooms." Wasure left the room and went to the bigger of the two rooms to ready it for Yugito. When he got out of the library he saw a sleeping Naruto and next to him Hinata who must have passed out and by "accident" landed next to him on the couch. He walked over and woke Hinata.
"Hinata as much as I hate breaking up this moment between you and Naruto, Hiashi may want you home now."
"Oh right…" Hinata was slowly getting up but passed out again.
"This is going to be a ruff night."
"Hey have Naruto walk her home."
"You know that's not a bad idea." Wasure woke Naruto up with by kicking him in the gut.
"What the heck man?"
"You're walking Hinata home, if need be carry her on your back." Wasure pointed to the passed out Hinata.
"Fine, just next time. Shaking me awake perfectly fine." Naruto picked Hinata up and had her on his back. Wasure opened up the door for him and saw him jump roof to roof towards the Hyuga compound.
"Heads up Bees coming to the door."
"Thanks Fen." Wasure looked to see Bee jump down and walk to the door.
"Hey Bee what's up?"
Bee handed a note to Wasure. "Read that will ya."
Wasure took the note and looked at Bee who then walked away and jumped to a new vantage point. Wasure closed the door and went inside to read the note.
"Wasure I sent this note for Bee to give it to you for one reason. Yugito has been in a relationship before, which ended when her first love was killed by rouge ninja in the woods around Kumogakure. I tell you this because I saw how she looked at you after you regained control and after seeing her looked at you in the hospital, she has interest in you. I tell you this because when she saw her love died, she lashed out and killed all that got in her way. Bee was able to stop her thanks to him being more in control of his cloak form than Yugito. That is why she knew the feeling of losing control, how it felt to give in to your anger and darkness. That is why I ask you keep her in check while she does the same for you. You may be the ten tailed wolf, but a Trained Tiger can easily defeat a wild wolf cub. You must protect her with your life, and tell her to keep Matatabi in check if you must give your life. And if you ever want to train and control your beast Bee will gladly train you at Kumogakure. Or if you wish to move your clan to a more powerful village just stop by and will handle the rest.
"Did the Raikage add some humor at the end there?"
"It looks like it, never thought he was one to do so given how he looked all serious."
"What's that Wasure?" Wasure looked to see Yugito standing in the hall.
"Do you think…"
"Tell her, we're not the damn ANBU keeping secrets."
"It's a note from the Raikage." Replied Wasure.
"Can I read it." She asked.
"Sure." Wasure brought to her, she began to read it and after one minute balled it up.
"So, he wants you to keep me in check."
"Seems like it." Wasure began to walk down the hall. "I'm off to ready the guest room."
"Okay."
Wasure went into the guest room and turned on the light to see it was nothing but blue and white. "The Uchiha were really into their color scheme…" Wasure really didn't have to do much except fix the bed a little. Wasure guessed they fixed it up before he moved in. As he left the room he heard the shower come on.
"Wasure…"
"Fenrir, I swear…." Wasure took a deep breath and went far away from the bathroom as possible.
"Wasure."
Wasure froze, please don't be anything bad… "Yeah Yugito?"
"Just letting you know I'm getting in the shower."
Wasure breathed relived, he went into his room and began to read a book about the tailed beasts. After a while he heard it go off and heard the door open.
"Not gonna try and see how she looks now?"
"Fenrir shut up."
"Just saying, you may have missed an opportunity."
"I am not in the mood for this." Wasure was reading the chapter about Matatabi, he needed to know all potential weaknesses if she does go nuts.
"What you reading now?"
Wasure looked to see Yugito in just a simple shirt and pants.
"Book about the Tailed Beasts ironically Matatabi is the one I know the least about."
"You could just ask me." Replied Yugito.
"Well you were in the shower so I went with the next best thing." Replied Wasure, flipping to the next page.
"You could have stood next to the door and talk." Replied Yugito.
"That would have been annoying and you know it." Replied Wasure.
"You're not wrong, well I'm off to bed." Yugito left for the guest room.
"I swear you will need me to take over when it comes to relationships."
"We both know you would have me give in to more feral impulses."
"You joke but one day kid you will have to settle down at some point."
"Well I'm still thirteen, I have a lot of time."
"You got me there."
"I always do, now hopefully Yugito didn't hog all the hot water." Wasure closed the book grabbed some clothes and went to take his shower. When he got out he heard what sounded like a tiger snarling…
"Fen is Yugito okay?"
"Yeah, just a part of being the Jinchuuriki of a tiger."
"I guess." Wasure went to her room just in case and saw she had nearly destroyed the bed rolling back and forth. "Guess it wasn't comfy." Wasure felt the mattress and compared to his bed, this was a rock. "Man, this thing is a rock." Wasure then saw her roll again knocking the last pillow of the bed.
"Your going to give her your bed aren't you."
"Yep, might as well be a gentlemen." Wasure picked her up bridal style which made Fen laugh.
"May have to get use to carrying her like that."
"Fenrir, just go to sleep."
"Fine, but only because I didn't take my nap today."
Wasure enjoyed the peace and quiet, taking Yugito to his room. He placed her on the better bed and laid the covers on her. He would sleep on the couch. He got some spare blankets and some of the pillows from the spare bedroom and went to fall asleep. Just to hear footsteps in the hall. He opened his eyes to see a masked man look at him and walk to his room where Yugito slept.
"What do you want Obito?" Wasure got up and saw he just stared at Yugito.
"Wasure, do you actually like her?" Asked Obito.
"Yes…" He replied.
"Then do not let a thing harm her. You are the Ten Tailed Wolf, people will come after Yugito and eventually you, I failed my love by trusting someone else protect her. Do not fail yours or else you will become me, a broken man who only cares for vengeance."
"Obito you could come back, you're not wanted. Shisui is, you could have a second chance." Wasure looked to see Obito take off his mask.
"Perhaps one day will, but Wasure I consider you my redemption. My attempt to leave a legacy honestly, I consider you my son. I raised you since you were one years old. I just wish Rin was here to see you, it would have been perfect. An Uchiha who's girlfriend would end up the three tails Jinchuuriki. Could have adopted the Uchiha Jinchuuriki of the Ten Tailed Wolf. Who happens to have feelings for the Jinchuuriki for Matatabi." Obito smiled at Wasure. "Perhaps I'll consider this, Itachi may as well."
"How?" Asked Wasure.
"Itachi kinda owes me for helping him still have some humanity inside him." Obito put his mask back on.
"What does that mean?" Asked Wasure.
"That's a story for another time. Goodnight Wasure." Obito kamuied away leaving Wasure alone. He looked at the sleeping Yugito who began to pure. Wasure smiled and went to the couch and fell asleep.
A/N
So, lot of stuff happened in this chapter, the village is beginning to suspect Wasure of being a demon even more now. Wasure helped Naruto get with Hinata, Wasure has Tsukuyomi, we see Wasure and Yugito get closer, Obito opens up a little and we see shades of possibly a redeemed Obito. Fenrir made a lot of jokes as usual, I know this is a very ruff summary but hey no body's perfect. Anyway like the last notes said, feel free to review and let me think of the story so far.
