This was messed up. At first I couldn't tell it was Madara, but when his eyes glowed red, I knew it was him. My gut screamed it. I couldn't help but stare, and notice he was staring at me as well. Just staring. I don't know if it was though me or not. I wasn't going to stare into his eyes. If the rumors were true then I'd fall down dead. I didn't want that. My eyes darted around the Uchiha. Had he done this? But how would he have done this? Is that possible? I just stared in front of me. Looking at the ground.
'What's going on?' I asked myself, feeling a shift in the air around us, making it all awkward and weird. 'Am I the only one who is feeling this?'
"Saiyami?" A womanly voice called, from my side. I jumped and snapped my head sideways, looking at no other than Ninami. She was twenty feet away just a little more to the right of Madara. She stood loyally by his side.
"Nimani?" I questioned. She looked the same, but so much more womanly, like me. Her chest area had gotten bigger as well, and she had grown a good five inches, just matching my height.
She didn't respond, and instead glared at something behind me. I glanced back and saw Hashirama had gotten a little closer, a protective gleam in his narrowed eyes.
I was so confused. Why did they seem so ready to kill each other?
"Leave her alone." Ninami snapped, in a clear, and deadly tone.
"You did this." Hashirama muttered. He glared at them. Then he gripped my shoulder and pulled me behind him. I felt protected, and then awkward. Ninami's eye widened then narrowed at the gesture. I looked down not sure what to do. I looked up only a little to find Kirian. But he wasn't there.
I looked side to side, probably looking stupid, but I didn't care. Where is Kirian?! I would have known if he had been in my body. I saw Hashirama glance at me from the corner of my eye and looked at him.
Though, as soon as I did, he shot off, meeting Madara in the middle as they fought with their fists.
I looked to Ninami who was glaring at me as she drew her weapon. I winced and stepped back. "Ninami-san, I don't want to fight you."
"Do it! You betrayed us."
"Betrayed you?" I questioned. "How did I do that?"
"You're with a Senju!" She snapped, launching the kunai at me. I yelped and ducked barely missing it.
"He's a friend!" I yelled, trying to defend myself as she threw more at me. He supply seemed endless.
"He's an enemy! Aren't you a Hanabira? They are the enemy!" She growled, creasing her attacks for only a second.
"The Hanabira clan is dead!" I yelled back. Then she stopped completely.
"I'm not dead, and neither are you."
I didn't respond. Looking back on my time here, after I have drown. I had been dead. Now I still am alive, and I have no idea how. Wait, Hashirama saved me, and that is why we are friends.
Ninami's face paled as she seemed to think something dreadful. "You are alive, right?" She said, stepping back a little. I got confused by her actions. One second she's throwing weapons at me, and the next she's backing up.
"Yes." I answered her in a small voice, that said had a hint of uncertainty. She didn't seem like she believed me, and kept a close eye on me before she spoke again.
"Why are you with a Senju?" She asked snobbishly, like it was a down grade.
"Well, he is sort of my friend." I snapped back.
"You're friends with a Senju? Isn't a natural thing to hate a Senju? They're evil."
I felt a bubble of rage pop in me. My eyes narrowed and I felt my body stiffen.
"He's evil? Look what you did to his home!" I yelled gesturing around us.
"You've been here?!" She said as if it was against all laws.
"Yes I have." I replied irritably.
"How were you ever going to be our Leader if you have been to the enemies house?!" She shrieked, coming closer, as if she was going to kill me, but she only came a few steps forward.
'Leader?' I thought, then it clicked. Yuki would have been the new Leader of the clan if he had not of died. Even if my mother was banned she was the Leader, wasn't she?
"He's not an enemy." I said in a low voice. Somehow the thought of me being a Leader gave me confidence. "He saved my life."
"He is an enemy!" She shouted.
"He saved my life!" I countered, louder.
"From what? A bug."
"No, I drown." I hissed.
"Couldn't swim?" She taunted.
"I got trapped under water. Do you even know what it's like to slowly die, knowing you're dying?" I asked, shooting her a glare.
"No." She replied like that didn't matter. "And I don't care because I won't be dying anytime soon."
I stared at her.
"It can happen when you least expect it." I warned her. "I didn't expect to be snagged when going for a swim, but I was."
"Just like you don't expect what coming at your head." She said smugly.
My eyes darted to the side and I jumped back turning a little, and the blade of the kunai barely skimming my cheek. I faced Madara and Hashirama's fight. They were easily dodging each other's attacks, and jumping around. They seemed to be so drawn in on their battle that they didn't notice the things they were flinging were almost hitting us both now.
I heard Ninami yelp as a kunai made a gash in her arm. I pitied her for a second before I got hit as well in the arm. Though I didn't yelp, I gasped, and quickly looked over at the boys, then back to Ninami. My arm let out some sharp throbs then just stung.
I jogged over to Ninami, and she glared at me the whole time. I slowly reached for her arm, not trying to force me helping her on her, but she wrenched it back, wincing as she did.
"Let me see it." I told her kindly.
"No." She growled.
"Please."
"No."
"Just one look."
"I said no!" She yelled, though it seemed like she was weighing her options mentally. I reached for her arm again, and she didn't pull away. Instead she nudged it forward. I took it and gave it a look. A normal gash would have been red with blood oozing out, but since it was so close to her elbow, you could see the bone. I frowned in disgust, and she huffed. I wiped my face clear of the expression and said sorry.
"I can see the bone."
"No fucking dip!" She yelled. I flinched at her harsh words, but I could see the small tist of pain, and panic on her face as she stared at it.
"Sorry." I muttered. I gripped it gently and pulled it closer. I blew on it and she winced.
"What the fuck?" She asked.
"Stop cussing, it won't help." I snapped with almost no bark to it.
"Don't tell me what to do!" She growled, but she quieted, and didn't speak again.
I sighed and unshouldered one pack, and took out a cloth and wet it with some biotics before quickly wrapping her arm with it. She didn't say thank you, but I knew she was, even if she wasn't going to say it.
I looked back at the other's fight. They were both panting and slowing with their blows equally.
'They're equally strong.' I thought in amazement.
It was a moment that only the sounds of battle filled the air, then Ninami gasped at something behind me. I turned quickly only to be hit and a foot kicked my roughly to the ground.
I grunted looking up, thinking, 'Tell me, where is Kirian when you need him?' But before I could really see anything, I was hit again and knocked out cold.
