That morning the Senju and Uzumaki clans were reunited in the village´s council room, the elders looking very angry at a red haired female who was now covering because of their glares. She looked at her father for support, the man was there as one of the representatives of her clan, but he only answered with a glacial glare. She shivered. If her own father thought she screwed up she was lost… unless he wanted to keep her in her position! Yes, and that man always do things for his personal gain.

"Fellow Senju clan members, distinguish representatives of the Uzumaki clan" begin Tobirama, that was there as his brother´s main councilor. "We are here to discuss the matter concerning the Senju clan head´s wife and daughter of the Uzumaki clan head´s situation."

"It has come to us" one of the Senju elders begin. "That Mito-hime is unfit to be a mother. My question is why? Hokage-sama, can you explain?"

"With pleasure" the brunette lifted himself from his seat. "I was strolling around the village, passing in front of my home, when I casually saw my wife intentionally breaking a lamp in my daughter´s room" the woman raised an eyebrow when he said "his" daughter, making it clear that the girls wasn´t hers. "She put the clan heiress in danger and just escaped, leaving her there to die."

"Me and a lot more witnesses can confirm that version" the albino frowned when saying those words. "That´s why my brother is concerned about Mito-hime´s ability to be a mother and, sincerely, me too"

"You are exaggerating things" said the father of the woman. "What if this didn´t happen again?"

"The thing is, Uzumaki-sama" begin one of the Senju councilor, sending him a warming glare. "That per our request one Yamanaka examined the child´s mind and report to us that, unknowingly to us, Senju Maki was constantly abused by her mother when her father wasn´t in sight" he looked down at the red haired female. "She apparently finds some sick pleasure in torturing her own child."

"But, then again, my daughter is truly… sorry for what happened. She has retrain and now is ready to make things up with her daughter. Then answer my question, what if this never happens again?"

"What if this happens again?" retorted Hashirama, sending a subtle glare towards the man. "I don´t want to lose my child because of something like that."

"And I assure you that it won´t happen" tried to calm him down the Uzumaki leader.

"But what guarantee can you give us?" the Hokage raised from his seat again. The redheaded clan head couldn't answer and bit his lip. "I see" he turned around to see all the attendants. "That´s why, in front of you all as the laws stated, I ask for the divorce."

"What?!"

"You heard me, Uzumaki-sama, I want the annulation of the marriage contract between your daughter and me" concluded the brunette.

"Now you are really exaggerating!" yelled one of the Senju councilors. A glare from green eyes made him swallow hard, but he continued. "We are all convinced that your concerns about Mito-hime are very real and agree that she is unfit to a mother and raise the clan heiress, but from that to broke the marriage contract…"

"I don´t want that woman near Maki…"

"Aniya," interrupted Tobirama, giving him a knowing look. "I am of your same opinion, Mito-hime shouldn´t be trusted with my niece, but your marriage to her is one of the foundations of our alliance with Uzushiogakure, it can be broken by simple things."

"You are calling my daughter´s life a simple thing?" now he was angry.

"Of course not, but it´s no reason enough to cancel the marriage" the albino then lifted from his seat and turned to the audience. "There is one way to secure that my niece would be taken care of and for my brother to continue bonded to her that has some antecedents in our laws. The punishment for Mito-hime´s action will be the revocation of her privilege to raise her and my brother´s daughter and any child they will have. They will be given to a person my brother chooses as a guardian when he is occupied with his duties."

"Tobirama, I…"

"Aniya, this is the best solution. Everybody on favor raises your hands" the majority of the council vote for this. "It´s done. From now on, Mito-hime isn´t allowed to raise her children and will not be allowed close to them unless she is watched. Dismissed" everybody lifted from their seats and began to leave, talking to each others about that they found the best solution. Hashirama approached his brother.

"Tobirama…"

"I know you want to break your marriage to her, but before your feelings you have to consider the benefits it brings to us" the albino coldly stated. "Now, we have to talk about the designation of the guardian. Senju Minami-san is a good girl, but she doesn´t know nothing about raising children…"

"I have someone in mind"

"You sure have, but I need to know they are…"

"Brother, listen to me, I will name whoever I deem worthy. And, believe it or not, it will be for the best"

By her side, Mito followed her father when he exited the clan meeting. Saying that he was disappointed with his daughter was the understanding of the year. Once alone the older redhead gave her a heated glare and slapped her across the face. She just endured the pain, after all she was a kunoichi and was trained to stand even more pain.

"What do you think you are doing, stupid girl?" he asked between gritted teeth. "After all the work I did to find you a good husband… you nearly ruined it all!"

"Father…"

"Nothing of Father, idiot!" he walked in the room, trying to calm himself down and not ending hitting her even more. "Do you know how this could have ended, huh? He could have gotten his wish to disdain you! And that would be really bad not just for you, but for all of us! Think a little, girl, you have put in danger our alliance with your little psicho break last night" he breathed in. "Alright, tell me, why do you want to kill your daughter?"

"She… she is not my daughter" answered the younger Uzumaki.

"What?" the clan head said in confusion.

"She is not my daughter" repeated the princess. "Maki… Hashirama had her outside the marriage, with a lover, and then ask me to raise his bastard spawn. We faked my pregnancy and all, he just want the girl to be legitimized…"

"The question here is why" the father raised and eyebrow. "You are not telling me everything"

"Why do you think that?"

"Don´t joke around with me, girl, I´m a shinobi, I can tell when I´m being told a bad lie" he smirked. "Now, what you said about Maki was true, she is a bastard, but if he wasn't in need of a child, then Hashirama could have just abandoned the child with her mother and never see them again."

"You know he isn´t from that…"

"True, but he could still see her from time to time and pass an allowance to cover her needs" he crossed his arms. "It takes less work than to actually faking this all to legitimize the child. Now, why did Hashirama need a kid if you were there to provide him with that?"

"I…" the woman finally gave up, she couldn´t lie to her father. "Okay, I´m infertile"

"What?!"

"Before she was born we learned that thanks to a birth disease I was unable to have children" she glared at him. "It was not my fault. And Hashirama has always being in love with someone from here… I knew it, but as long as I was the wife and had the legitimate children it didn´t matter to me… you have all kinds of mistress too"

"Careful with that mouth, child"

"The things is that at the month we learned about my condition the damn whore informed he about the pregnancy and I didn´t know what to do!" she finally broke down. "So I… kind of blackmailed him so he didn´t ditch me to marry his mistress and gave me the child, but… since the first time I saw her I could see her mother in her, so I couldn´t stand Maki! I got so full of anger because of her birth…"

"The blackmailing part was intelligent, I will give you that" begin the Uzumaki leader. "But what you did now was totally idiotic!" he snapped. "But it brings some light to what is happening now."

"What do you mean, father?"

"Hashirama is very eager to get rid of you and marry his little lover. That only means one thing…" he frowned. "She is pregnant again"

-In another time-

"Please, Tsuna" said Maki for the tenth time that morning. Since they arrived at the village the Tsunade from the future have been living with her past self and her mother, her baby brother as a plus. Her father died some time before Nawaki was born, so it wasn´t much of a surprise not to find him there… not that he was ever present in her life. For the past few days she has been happy taking care of the little child… until her mom decided to ask her to help them to take care of an aged Uzumaki Mito.

"I don't have to see that damn old woman again and don´t worry about her, she still have some years ahead" answered the older blond, earning a glare from her younger version, who was doomed to suffer the princess´s anger.

"She is your grandmother" the mother sighed. "She could be really bad, but… she is still my mother and I have to take care of her…"

"You only want to win her love, that´s all you ever wanted" grunted the Sannin, the let out a breath. "Alright, I will do it"

"REALLY?" asked the teen surprised.

"Yes" then she smirked. "After all, I´m not the kind of person to be intimidated by her anymore" and they went to the redhead´s home, Maki carefully putting her old wig in it´s place, covering her black Uchiha hair. When they arrived to the place where Mito-hime lived, the busty woman frowned. "So she is still here."

"Where else would she be? This is the house she shared with father and… she lost my brothers in" Tsunade frowned at that. She already knew that Mito didn´t lose any children, she didn´t even had one. And she was glad for the deaths of her husband´s children, they were the representations of something she should have had and didn´t.

"Why don´t you let me enter first? I´m an accomplished medic nin, I can handle her" offered the former Hokage. "You said you wanted to buy some things for her. Go ahead, I will take care of her in your absence."

"That´s sweet, darling, but maybe you are forgetting that she is…"

"Oh, I can never forget about that old woman, but in the hospital I deal with difficult patients all the time and my students were sometimes worse" she smiled. "Go"

"Thanks" Maki and the younger Tsunade left and the older frowned. She entered the house and sat down next to the bed the Uzumaki princess was currently laying on. "I´m here"

"Yes, I knew you were going to come, Tsunade" Mito smiled like a villain. "Maybe you forgot me after all the time it passed since you were… her to your today, but I really hope you learned from your mistakes" she glared at the other woman. "Don´t stay there like an statue and fix my pillow, child."

"And I advice you" begin the blond. "To be more respectful"

"Oh, and why? You wouldn´t be here if it wasn´t for me, so now do as I say and…" she was met with a hole on her wall. "How dare you?"

"I would have been born without you and probably would be more happy without you making my and my mother´s life miserable" she lifted her head to show the old princess her eyes, who just turned red with three tomoe. She opened her eyes in astonishment. "Surprised? I was when I found out you and oji-sama´s little secret."

"So you know… how did you find out?"

"It was difficult and not something I wanted to know, but once I did… well, I just thought it wasn´t so bad" she deactivated her Sharingan. "Uchiha Madara was not such a bad person once you got to know him and inherited some useful things from him" she sent the other a poisonous glare. "I lost a lot of people I could have saved with my healing jutsus if I just had my Sharingan, thanks for nothing."

"Apparently my seal worked well, you are welcome" she said in some sadistic joking mode. "And you surely know about Byakuya and Sorato… it made me feel great."

"Bastard"

"I may be, darling, but they and their mother took something away from me… my destiny!"

"You know, have you not being such a bitch, maybe they could have grown to love you and not escaped to their mother" Tsunade sighed. "You had a chance…"

"I didn´t want those children… I want my own"

"You were unable to have. You should have…"

"Tsuna! We are home!" called Maki, entering through the door. The busty blond sat down again and looked straight at the redhead´s eyes. In her own there was fury unlike anything she has seen before, except… in Uchiha Madara. Now the two of them were really similar.

"I will not tell her for now, but if you keep behaving like that… the one that will die alone will be you" she lifted from her seat and went to find her mother and younger self. The fake redhead smiled at her and put a box in her hands. "This are sweets, I don´t take them anymore. Maybe a little bit of booze…"

"No, Tsuna" the woman held a finger up and then smiled. "Thanks for taking care of her while we were shopping, hope we didn´t take too long."

"It was alright" assured the former Hokage. "She didn´t cause any problem"

"I can´t really believe that" Maki entered and sighed, putting her bags down. "You should go out and take a little rest, just come back in an hour to help us." Tsunade was about to say something, but the mother stopped her. "Come on, it´s going to be alright. I lived with her most of my life, handling her for a few minutes is not going to kill me"

"I hope so" Tsunade went around, walking through the village and remembering the things she lived in there. She was doing so when she came face to face with Orochimaru, who sported a big smile and dirty clothes, apparently for searching for his son.

"I never thought you would awoke Sharingan at your age" he licked his lips. "The power I´ve ever wanted and you end up having it, how cruel the world could be?" he laughed then "And what you said about Uchiha Madara… was it true?"

"Yes, everything I said was true" he smiled sadly. "At first maybe… I thought he was the worst kind of person, the evil incarnate, but since I learned about his past… well, we are really similar. He left Konoha when sad, I did to. He refuse to help them, I did too. He had a strong will too and didn´t let anyone decide for him, unlike oji-sama… I am like that too"
