SilverIcy + Silver Icy (guest) – I hope too. I'm raping their sanity. :p The plan won't be beautiful, it'll be bloody. *insert sadistic grin* You're right about that but don't worry, I'll have it all fixed. Let's see how the readers will decide and then I'll decide. Though, Tobirama is very good for Shisui because of Itachi's personality, like you said. We'll see how that will go, for now enjoy the read! Thank you for the review! I'm glad you liked the bloody scene. I hope I didn't use too much ketchup? Enjoy another chapter! PS. I used Toka in this chapter, thank you for mentioning it.
Sylencia – Hihi, true! My number #1 reader, alongside SilverIcy! You too are awesome, thank you very much for the support. Oooh, you read the chapter's title?! Wow. How come you don't like it? It does suck that Sachiko had died while Tajima is still breathing. Don't worry, he'll die soon. Hihi, I'll try to read that story, make sure you torture Tajima too! Yeah, Izuna got his Sharingan but at what cost? His mother's death… And wow, you nailed it on the spot! Damn you and your intelligence! No kidding, you're smart! Tajima is pure evil and he will do that. There goes the surprise… Meh.. Oh well, Enjoy this chapter!
treavellergirl – Sooooo true, man ninja's are power-obsessed but oh well, at least it helps with the suspense of the story and the gruesome scenes. Well, as an authoress I have the power to grant them a time-out but I'm too sadistic to do that. :p Meh, Sachiko wasn't in a sane condition so she just did something weird to avoid them? Maybe I should have mentioned that more explicit. Oh well, too late for that now. :p Thank you for the review!
Kasai no Oni – I love being a masochist, that guy never knew what hit him when he angered Shisui and her brothers like that. I feel so evil right now. Thank you for the review! :D
So here are the ages for the ones that are confused, for this chapter only:
Uchiha Madara=16 years to 17 years old
Uchiha Izuna=14 years to 15 years old
Uchiha Shisui=11 years to 12 years old
Dear readers, I placed a poll on my profile where you, as the readers, could decide who Shisui should be paired with. I would appreciate it if you guys could spare a few seconds to click on my profile and then the poll! Thank you!

Chapter 11: Sharingan Siblings
Another death of her loved ones, another funeral service. Shisui watched the fire smother Sachiko's soulless body. She didn't leave till dawn, watching the smoke perish slowly on. She didn't leave until she dug a grave for Sachiko next to Daisuke and Tetsu, ignoring her rolling tears. She didn't leave until she placed three lone sakura's on their graves, praying for their lost lives.
Madara and Izuna standing next to her, both holding her hands as they mourned for their loved ones.
"Take a deep breath, imouto." Madara advised helpfully, eyes softening when he looked at his little sister's shocked eyes. "Don't go near him, alright?" He asked gently, hoping that would ease her heart. He just hoped that her frail heart could survive this.
Shisui nodded with a shuddering breath, clenching her fist as she looked down, "J-Just stay safe," She peeked at Izuna from her left side, "You t-too, I-Izuna-nii…" When she looked up, her Sharingan was flaring to life and then it modified into the Mangekyou Sharingan. She knew her brother had already activated their respective Sharingans. She didn't want to look into Hashirama's eyes, she was afraid to see his hurt, regretful eyes but somehow her eyes locked with his. She gulped, her chaotic emotions clashing with each other. This was her first time to be send into the battlefield and she was dreading the moment when the battle would commence. Her eyes softened and she mouthed the word, 'I'm sorry.' At him, hearing the hammering of her heart against her ribcage. When her eyes averted towards Tobirama, she noted the ugly sneer that was aimed at her.
For a moment she wanted to sneer back but this was her father's idol, the one who sacrificed his life so her father could live on. Instead, she smiled gently at him, pouring her entire gratitude in it. Battlefield or not, she respected Tobirama, he was her Nidaime Hokage, the man who mastered every single water jutsu.
And then just like that, a snap of the finger, a click of the tongue, a blink of an eye and everything turned into chaos.
"It seems the Uchiha's have a female in their ranks. One puny single woman." A Senju sneered with disgust, his two friends accompanying him on both sides.
Shisui smirked at them, amusement shimmering in her eyes, "This puny girl could beat you so be nice, gentlemen." Then her eyes widened, this could not be happening to her, please, Kami, have some compassion.
Because there in front of her was none other than Senju Tobirama.
"I'll handle the Uchiha." He hissed lowly, eying Shisui with sheer disgust and fury, "After all, it wouldn't be gentlemanly of me if I didn't greet my brother's friend, ne?"
The three Senju chuckled and with that they left Tobirama to fight off the black-haired kunoichi.
Shisui swallowed heavily and looked back and forth, she shuffled her feet open and dashed away from Tobirama but he didn't give her any space. In a flash he appeared in front of her, kicking her in the stomach and then twisted her body, slamming her on the ground. Shisui choked out on her spit and coughed blood, rolling to the left on time to avoid Tobirama left punch that was ascending towards her that created a small crater. With a strong push of her hands, she stood up, eying him warily. How come he came after her?
Tobirama, as if reading her mind, answered, "You broke aniki's heart and now I'll crush yours." He charged at her, aiming a punch at her left side but she twisted, dancing around his moves. Somersaulting over him, she grabbed his collar and threw him against a giant rock. She winced when he flew through the rock. She silently send a prayer to her future father who must be rolling in his past grave.
The dust was shielding her sight but she could feel and see his chakra, his chakra capacity wasn't one to be laughed about. He was damn good, even at this young age, although when she observed him closely, she rated him to be around Izuna's age. A groan left her lips when he dashed towards her, pride injured, and a shout escaping his throat. Why were men so damn stubborn?
Sighing softly, she placed her hand on his shoulder when he neared her, lifting her legs up, flipping her body over his head and then kicked him away as she hopped to the opposite side of his flying body. She skidded to a halt and ducked a kunai that was flying above her. And then she had to avoid a giant water vortex aimed at her. That must be Tobirama's doings, only he had such tremendous powers over his water affinity. She shuddered out a breath, looking at the rocks, or should she say used-to-be-rocks. In their place stood a giant crater where the vortex literally raped the ground.
She needed a plan, and quick, wanting to get away from him but how? How could she get away from him when he was adamant about killing her? Her eyes widened, well, since she couldn't injure him, there was one way to get away from him. Clones. She gasped and leaned backwards, avoiding a giant fireball that sizzled above her. She could smell the smell of burnt hair, disgusting. Smirking slyly, she summoned a dozen of clones, all sporting her smirk. "Well, Tobirama-kun, let's start dancing." They all charged at him while the real one left the battlefield, flipping away from a barrage of kunai's.
A yelp left her throat when someone pulled her hair, smashing her head brutally on the ground. Her eyes widened when she saw Tobirama on top of her, clenching her arms tightly as she tried to struggle free. "You bewitched my brother with your accursed Sharingan!" He spat out, his words dripping venom. Her eyes widened even more when he took a kunai, "I'll gouge out those demonic-looking Sharingans, they look even uglier than the normal Sharingans." He sneered, the kunai moving down and Shisui quickly covered her entire body with lightning, hearing Tobirama's pained groan as he stumbled off her.
Then, "Oof!" Tobirama grunted as he was slammed on the ground by a black and blue blur.
Shisui gasped in shock but shrieked again when water was spit towards her. She twisted her legs in the air, propelling herself upwards and landed on her knee, watching the person who shot out water at her with narrowed eyes. She glanced back towards Tobirama and noted that Izuna had taken her place. They were now staring down at each other, each baring their teeth towards the other. She could only hope that they wouldn't kill each other.
Glancing back at her new enemy, she was shocked to see a female, a female warrior, a kunoichi. She noticed Shisui's shock and snarled at her, "What's wrong, girl, surprised to see a female on battle?" She chuckled darkly, "The Senju's do allow females to fight if they show great prowess and prodigious skills."
Light eyes, an oval face, a dark shade of lipstick and a very ugly expression on her face. Her dark hair was tied in an elaborate and intricate top-knot, with a bang covering the left side of her face. She wore a dark suit with the standard armour. Shisui tried to remember anything about this woman from her history books but she couldn't place a name on her. Yet.
"You," She started again, charging, "I'll kill you!" She aimed a punch at her cheeks but Shisui blocked it, grabbing her fist when the female Senju punched her with her other fist. Shisui jumped over, forwards, throwing the girl away with her hands, chakra rushing in her fist. Twisting her body to the left, she aimed another kick from a giant Senju who grinned down at her. He performed a set of seals, shouting, "Doton: Ganban Kyu!"
Shisui cursed when two giant rocks appeared out of the ground and then the man clasped his hands, the rocks flying towards her with impeccable speed. She performed a set of seals, "Doton: Moguragakure no Jutsu." and appeared underground, feeling the rumbling of the ground under the force of the Ninjutsu. She pinpointed his location and moved towards him, digging through the stones. When she felt his chakra, she ruptured the ground with her fist but before her fist could touch his skin, her Sharingan eyes noticed a kick that was aimed at her. So, thinking rapidly, she grabbed the man's armour and flipped her body over him, twisting her upper body around as she clenched her legs around the giant man's throat who was digging his nails in her tender flesh. Without feeling a single amount of pity, she snapped his neck, averting her attention on the kick that was now within her reach. Damn, the Mangekyou Sharingan was so good that she could pick out the punches and kicks three seconds before they reached her.
Surging lightning chakra towards her hands, she grabbed the girl's legs, paralyzing her and throwing her away like a lasso. The giant's body was falling and with a front flip, she landed on the ground, using a set of seals to defend herself from the fire jutsu that was flying towards her, "Suiton: Suiryuudan!" A water dragon-shaped form appeared, roaring and flying towards the giant fireball, extinguishing it with a loud hiss, steam creating from the collision.
Shisui felt a tingle in her eyes and smirked when she noticed that someone had placed a Genjutsu on her. How stupid. "Kai!" She released the Genjutsu and stepped aside as the same girl from before, although now she could see purple marks on her legs from the lightning on her legs, flew past her. "What is your problem?" Shisui shouted in annoyance, this girl was clearly aiming only at her. What did she do to receive all these Senju's hate? This was her goddamn first time appearing on the battlefield!
"You don't know?! You despicable Uchiha!" With another battle cry, the girl charged at her, aiming a kick at her head but Shisui ducked and placing her hand on the ground, she lifted her legs, pushing them towards the girl and kicked her in the chin. Not being one to finish like that, she flipped over her back, propelling her forwards towards a Senju who was about to kill one of her kinsmen. Quick as a tiger, she took out a kunai and stabbed him, skidding to a stop in front of her kinsmen. She couldn't save everyone but she would help them if she had the chance. "Are you alright?!" Shisui asked worriedly, summoning a clone and protecting the Uchiha while he was being healed by her clone as she eyed the two Senju's in front of her.
"N-Not really but I'll be." He coughed out blood but her cone was already knitting his wounds, the injuries vanishing as his body was regaining strength. Shisui performed a set of seals, "Katon: Goukakyu no Jutsu!" and knew that those Senju's had avoided the fireball but that was alright, she just needed to buy time.
She cursed her luck when two dragons made from mud roared at her. She'll be needing one of her bigger jutsu's to counter that and executed a set of seals, "Raiton: Rairyu no Tatsumaki!" Shisui formed a whirling vortex of electricity that took the form of a screeching dragon. It flew towards the two mud dragons and collided, sending rock debris and blasts of lightning everywhere. By the time that the dust had stilled, the Uchiha that had almost died was standing next to her, nodding in gratitude, "Arigatou. I'll be able to fight again."
She inclined her head, "Good, don't die on me now!"
Shisui only heard his amused chuckle as he disappeared in the sea of fighting bodies.
"Stop!" Shisui groaned, recognizing that voice, it was that obsessive girl. Again.
She turned around, blocking her attack with a kunai, "Stop stalking me!" With her other hand, she took out another kunai and stabbed her in the shoulder, watching the girl fall on the ground, crumpled and defeated. "Really?" Shisui scoffed, releasing the Genjutsu and jumping over the girl, "You dare to use Genjutsu on a Uchiha?" Smirking, she continued, "I'll show you what a true Genjutsu mistress is all about!" She performed another jutsu of her, one that she had used against her fight with the Kiri-nin, Ao, "Seishin soujuu."
The girl's eyes widened when she started coughing up blood, pain searing through her entire body. Her knees buckled under the Uchiha girl's stare, her demonic-red eyes glowering at her, and she clutched her head, wishing this pain to go away. Another cough fit appeared and she hit her chest, trying to keep her heart inside her ribcage. She felt as if it could burst out any moment. "This Genjutsu is a very special one, I control your neurons that processes and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals towards the brain. I'm commanding them, I'm commanding your brain. Isn't this a nice Genjutsu?" A smirk played on her rose lips and the Senju wondered what kind of monster this girl could be. She could hear her but she couldn't see her, only darkness.
Shisui shook her head and turned away, running towards another Senju and avoiding the giant fireballs, flying rock debris and soaring kunai's. And she never noticed the Senju girl twitching her fingers, something that no other opponent of hers had done. That girl was none other than Senju Toka, a prowess in Genjutsu.
Shisui's eyes widened when she saw Hashirama fighting Madara with his Kekkei Genkai, Mokuton. This was her first time seeing him utilize his Mokuton, well, she had seen Tenzou's wood release but this was the real deal. Her eyes widened even more when wood bullets pierced her brother and she flickered towards him, not knowing that she had missed being stabbed by a kunai.
"Madara-nii!" Shisui shouted, appearing next to Madara and looking at Hashirama who stopped fighting, occasionally avoiding kunai's and jutsu's.
Madara grunted in pain, "Imouto, get out of here." She shook her head, summoning a clone who would heal him and in the meanwhile she would fight Hashirama head on. She charged at him, not going all out, aiming a punch at him, which he, of course blocked but she could see that he wasn't going all out either.
He twisted her body, holding a kunai against his throat while whispering, "I miss you guys."
She flickered behind him, turning his hands behind his back, "Hashi-kun, we miss you too but aniki just doesn't want to admit it."
"He is so grumpy." Hashirama replied, his voice tinged with amusement. Roots appeared from under the ground, pinning Shisui down, which she countered by covering herself in fire, burning them. Hashirama chuckled softly, ducking down to avoid a kunai and Shisui used that moment to lift her legs and wrap them around his neck as she proceeded to punch him. Hashirama summoned more roots who ripped Shisui off him, throwing her on the ground with a bit more force behind. She gasped in shock but rolled to the left, smirking, "You've gotten stronger, Hashirama-kun."
"You too, Shisui-chan."
And then the atmosphere was ruined by Madara who appeared next to her, looking not happy at all. "That fight looked more like humping to me." He glared at Hashirama and then at Shisui who was blushing fiercely, sputtering in embarrassment.
She saw the same girl appear again. "Senju stalker! Get away from me." That caused both boys to stop trying to kill each other and blink at her and then the other Senju girl. "Toka!" Hashirama cried out in distress.
"So you're Toka." Shisui repeated, observing the girl who was glaring at her with passion. "I think I know why you're stalking me."
Toka didn't respond and charged at her, slamming her leg down but Shisui avoided it, jumping back, "You're in love with Senju Hashirama and because he doesn't give you, a Senju, the time of the day while he did it to a Uchiha girl like me, you're jealous. Am I right or am I right?"
"Nani?!" Hashirama's surprised voice reached their ears, followed by Madara's, "Don't get distracted by fangirls, Hashirama!"
She chuckled when Toka actually blushed, throwing three kunai's at her, which she dodged by flickering behind her. "I'm amazed that you have escaped my Genjutsu, seems you're very adapt with them. Congratulations, you're the first one who escaped my mind Genjutsu." Something she had derived from the Yamanaka clan.
Toka didn't care about the praises, she just wanted this certain Uchiha girl out of the way. Hashirama was hers and hers alone! No filthy Uchiha would touch him with their despicable hands, especially not this one.
The battlefield ended with a tie, which didn't surprise Shisui at all. After Toka's appearance everything became a blur and they were ordered to retreat, she had only glimpsed Tobirama who, like usual, showed his dearly affection at her by sending her imaginative daggers. He was such a sweet boy.
When they were back in their camp, she helped the injured men, healing them to her best abilities while trying to ignore two pairs of onyx black eyes.
"Are you in love with Hashirama?" Madara asked when Shisui came out the river, towel around her. She had yelped in surprise at his sudden appearance and seconds later she noted what he had said, "Nani?!"
Then Izuna appeared next to him, a frown marring his face, "It seems she got Tobirama's interest piqued too."
Shisui shrieked at them, throwing her comb but they dodged it, "Can't a girl take a relaxing bath in peace and quietness?!"
"Not until you have answered my question." Madara replied, crossing his arms, Izuna doing the same.
Shisui answered sincerely, looking them in the eyes, "I do love Hashirama." Her eyes widened when two kunai's flew at her and she had to duck if she didn't want to get skewered. "The hell?! List-" She clutched her towel and jumped backwards, evading another set of kunai's that soared past her while she was half in the air. "He is my best friend! A friend!" When she landed on the ground, there were no flying kunai's and she sighed in relief, scowling at her brothers. "Both of you are so annoying!" She shrieked loudly, summoning bolts of lightning and sending it towards them but they only flickered away.
Then the two of them stiffened, their eyes wide in horror. And for a moment Shisui thought they had been hurt but it wasn't that. It was something way worse. Izuna covered his eyes, pushing against them and screaming in terror, "My eyes! They burn! Get it out!"
Madara turned her back to her, his face as pale as a ghost, disgust clear in his face. This was his little sister, damnit, he wasn't supposed to see something like that. "Why?!" He muttered, hitting himself with his palm as he tried to get that image out of his head. Then it got even worse.
"I've got a message for Madar-" Another Uchiha appeared, looking at Shisui with bewilderment, blood trickling down his nose and then Shisui shrieked again, her cheeks as red as her Sharingan eyes. "Get out!"
She had dropped her fucking towel when she used that lightning jutsu and now her brothers and some random Uchiha had seen her naked.
One second Madara and Izuna were standing with her back towards her and the next they were threatening the Uchiha physically who had appeared out of thin air, their Sharingans spinning madly, "You dare to watch our little sister?" Madara hissed, squeezing his throat while Izuna growled dangerously low, twisting the Uchiha's arm. "I'll crush your balls with my fist if you ever get near her again."
The Uchiha stuttered, shaking his head as he tried to breathe for air, "N-No, I-I- I-It was an a-a-ccident! I-I s-swear I-" "Silence." Izuna snarled, pushing his hands up. "You will not talk of this to anyone, you will not think of her like that. If you even dare to dream about her I'm going to fucking castrate you, am I understood?" Izuna continued, scoffing in anger as he pushed more force on the arm as the man whimpered pathetically. Was this even a Uchiha?
Shisui stomped towards her brothers, towel hiding her body and pried their hands off the traumatized Uchiha, "Are you both mad?! It was an accident!"
"Hn. That bastard was enjoying it too much." Madara growled, cracking his knuckles as he sent the trembling Uchiha a deadly glare.
Izuna continued, leaning against the tree with visible anger, "We just made sure that he won't destroy your honour. Or else..." He trailed off, narrowing his eyes in slits.
Shisui rolled her eyes, healing his injury while making sure that she was holding her towel tightly. With reed cheeks, she took the message from the Uchiha and apologized for her brothers rash actions. When she turned around, she handed the letter to Madara and ordered them around so she could change.
"What does it say, aniki?" Izuna asked gruffly, eye brows still twitching as images of his innocent little sister popped up. He would surely get nightmares because of this.
Madara sighed tiredly, "We'll have to fight the Senju's again."
"When?" She quipped up, anger lacing her voice.
Izuna rubbed his temples, "Tomorrow."
"What?!"
"Calm down imouto." Madara advised softly, closing his eyes as he deactivated the Sharingan. He was still pissed off that some low-class Uchiha had seen his sister's pure form. Damn it! "Let's rest up for to-" "Rest up?!" Shisui interrupted him, "We just came back from war!"
He groaned when his sister started ranting again, it was as if he had ordered the Uchiha's to fight again.
And her ranting continued, "Don't tell me we have to fight the Senju's?!"
Two nods and Shisui stomped her feet to the ground, pulling her wet strands, "Damnit! I got an obsessive bastard after me who wants to revenge his brother! And then another deranged fangirl trying to kill me because she sees me as competition!"
Madara smirked, his lips tugging upwards in amusement and even Izuna chuckled at her little sister's antics. She was so funny when she got angry.
"It's not funny! How am I going to survive that!"
Madara frowned, "Don't talk like that. You will survive."
Izuna nodded, "You are our sister, that should be reason enough."
"Wow. I can feel the love." Shisui muttered but a smile was plastered on her face, "You're right, no need to be all depressed." She stored her wet clothes in a storage seal and snaked her arms around her brothers torso's, grinning widely, "Just don't hurt Hashirama too mu- Itai!"
"You should be concerned about your big brother instead of Hashi-baka!" Madara gritted, glaring at her sister, though he was being playful.
Shisui smirked, "Oh, is someone being jealous?" She mocked him, leaning against his shoulders.
Madara shivered in disgust, "Please put your arms away, just minutes ago I saw you naked. I want to have some time to clean my thoughts."
Shisui felt a vein pop up her head and she hit in the chest, to which he only laughed, his voice a rich and smooth sound, "No need to be that angry, imouto, it doesn't suit your cute face."
Izuna chuckled, ruffling her hair, "Aniki is right, smile imouto."
"I'll show you a new meaning of a smile." She muttered under her breath, pulling her brother's back towards camp to quell their hunger, "Let's go eat something."
"Imouto you're cooking." Madara stated, raising his eye brow when Shisui growled at him, "Is there a problem with that?"
She glared at him, "Stop commanding me as if I'm your maid!"
Izuna frowned, thinking, "But aren't you sort of- Alright, alright!" He quickly defended himself when she turned her deadly glare towards him, grinning sheepishly, he ruffled her hair, "Oh mighty Shisui would you to us the honour of creating one of your godly dishes?"
"Since you asked so nicely, I will only cook for you but next time keep that mocking tone out of your voice." Shisui replied with a deadpanned look.
Madara frowned unhappily, "You'll let your aniki starve?"
"Yes," was her dry reply.
He smirked smugly, "Don't come crying to me when you don't understand your self-made seals."
Shisui stiffened and turned to look at her big brother, smiling gently at him, "Dear aniki, I was only kidding, you know how I get when I'm grumpy."
"It's that time of the month." Izuna whispered secretly, shielding his lips from Shisui, but the effect was gone since she could hear him. Madara scrunched his nose in disgust, his little brother was sick to talk about that. He didn't want to hear anything about the changes his little sister was undergoing. She was growing so fast, too damn fast, one day she was a tiny baby and the next she is starting to grow from every angle. He shuddered when that image appeared again and he tried to force it out by clenching his eyes shut. It didn't get any better, groaning he hit him upside the head, wishing them to disappear. Was there a Genjutsu that could delete some certain memories? He had to look that up.
"Izuna!" Shisui screeched, chasing after Izuna who was only laughing openly.
Madara looked with soft, gentle eyes how his siblings were interacting with each other, imprinting it in his head with his Sharingan. This was what he wanted to protect and protect he will do.
Fight after fight. Uchiha against Senju. It was always the same cycle and Shisui was wondering if Kami was always replaying the same events over and over.
When will this bloody feud be done with?
Somehow, Shisui wished that she could have a stop button, just to have a time-out from all these horror.
