Chapter Six- Wake Up
Madara didn't know why he was warm, nor did he understand where the extra weight came from. Opening his eyes, he saw a white shirt. Looking up all he could see was tanned skin. Blinking his tired mind was able to make the connections.
"Mada you're up!" Hashirama said looking at his friend who was just slowly blinking at him. Rolling over, so he could sit up without crashing his friend. "What's wrong?"
"Some moron was sleeping on me." Madara glared at him, before looking at the door to find a spot of red hair. How long she had been there, he didn't know. However, he knew that it was going to be something anyone would tease him about. "Mito we, or I, know your there."
"She is?"
"Yes. I wouldn't have said so otherwise."
"Mada. So mean."
"No matter," Mito said looking at the two. Before they were acting like children, now they were talking to each other… she didn't know how to explain it, but it was strange hearing them argue like an old married couple, or what her parents sounded like. "I've messaged one of my friends and see sent some things over for you two."
"Like what?" Hashirama asked. He didn't mean to sound rude, but he was curious about then things that Mito's friends had sent. Since he knew that most shinobi parents thought a sword was a plaything, of course teaching them how to use it, but still… children shouldn't be learning Kenjutsu at his and Madara's age.
Thinking about it, he didn't think many parents started to train their children at two, since they didn't have height nor the weight to really do much. Learn about what a shiboni's role was and who their enemies were, understandable, but actual full weighted training he doubted.
"A few toys, books… I didn't really look at everything," Mito said. It was a lie, she hadn't looked at any of it, only the list that her friend was kind enough to send with it. She was too busy trying to figure out Tobirama's seal. She wasn't really getting anywhere with it, she just knew what it did and was doubting that effects could be undone, safely. "I brought them to your room, but you weren't there."
"It's my fault. I brought Mada here, because I wanted to take a nap with him."
"I saw."
Madara just looked at them and sighed. Before going red in the face, she saw? Why didn't she wake us up then? he thought glaring at her. Tobirama would've, then again, he knew who they were and she didn't. "Hn."
"Hn? That's not a word," Mito muttered to herself looking at the small raven. She just smiled before picking him up and putting him on her hip. She might as well she what Ai had sent her, as well as her sister-in-law Kikyo. "Anyway, we better get to your room, before Tobirama comes back. He sent a messenger saying his meeting was going to last longer then he first thought."
"Is someone fighting with each other?" Hashirama asked. When he held clan meetings, someone was always fighting with someone and it was always over the silliest things, like 'your clan killed my cat' or 'your too loud'. He didn't know how adults acted like children, when they wanted children to act like adults. It was sad, now that he thought about it. "Did someone's cat get eaten?"
"He didn't say."
"Maybe someone thought they were getting glared at." Madara could only smile at the memory, the Hyuga clan head thought he was glaring at him, but he was glaring at Hashirama for being to soft. "Or did the Hyuga thought they weren't getting respected."
"What?" Mito asked. Hashirama only looked at her, before meeting Madara's eye. It was an inside joke between the two of them, but they couldn't let her know that, she might think something was up with them. Hashirama didn't think Tobirama would be able to explain that one to her.
"It was a joke," Madara told her. It was a lie, but she didn't need to know that. As much as he hated the white haired bastard, he owed him. Sadly, he could've just dumped him in an alley way, when he figured out what happened. "I heard Tobi talking about it."
"I see. I didn't know he brought work back with him."
"He doesn't," Hashirama told her, he usually finished it in his office, since most of the documents were too important to leave the tower, since someone might steal them. Not that he'd think someone in the leaf would, but he wasn't so sure about other countries or villages. After all, information sometimes was worth more than someone's life. "He was tired. I doubt it'll happen again."
"I won't tell him." Mito only rolled her eyes. Of course the man was tired, he had two children, his brother had disappeared and he had mountains of paperwork. "But I don't think he'll be happy knowing your making fun of high up clans. Just don't say them to their face."
"We won't," Madara and Hashirama said at the same time, before looking at each other. Hashirama smiles, while Madara just frowns, before finding himself being pinched by both his friend and Mito.
Glaring at the two of them, mostly Mito, since it was her fault, she was the one who was kneeling holding him on her lap. Mito only rolled her eyes, before standing up and taking the two to their room, she had a few hours before she could make dinner, so she might as well have fun with her charges before teaching them how to read and write.
After all, seals take years to even get the basics down. More so to become a master and she had a feeling that Konah was going to need them.
