But you'll read that soon. And nah, your questions don't annoy me, you know that I always read and answer them. :D

SilverIcy – Ahn, you liked that scene. Hihi, I'll put more in them, although I'm not really good at writing them, I'm doing my best. ;) Unfortunately, Shisui isn't going to become the host of the Kyuubi, that one is suited for another member. :D You got eight more choices, which one will be for Shisui?

Sylencia Oh my, you want all three of them, you're greedy. :p Alright, I'll take Madara and you can have the other three, sounds kind of unfair but meh, Madara is HOT! Oh yeah, Madara is going to throw a huge tantrum if he knows that Hashirama dirtied his precious carpet with his semen. Marriage will come! Can't you hear the wedding bells ring loudly?

treavellergirl – Yeah, I'm very insistent about the family name, I corrected it quickly, thanks for mentioning it. ;D Like I said in the private messages, I'll reconsider your idea, it seems plausible, even a funny twist. If I'll use your ideas, I'll be mentioning them in my author's note at the start with your name in it! :D Thank you for these suggestions, you really are a great help.

Chapter 29: Birth of an SS-rank Secret – Part II

"What the fuck is this?" Madara cursed loudly, noticing Hashirama's rigid posture as he leaned down to observe his red carpet. Something about it felt off, activating his Sharingan, he grunted in annoyance when he noticed a weak B-rank Genjutsu, which was placed on his carpet, dispelling it, his eyes widened when he noticed the stain on his precious carpet. He grimaced when he smelled it, "This smells like sex…" His nose scrunched up at the god-awful smell and he clenched his fists, eyes moving towards Hashirama who was still stiff and looking at him.

When Hashirama saw that Madara noticed the semen stain, he cursed inwardly. He had tried his best to clean it but in the end he made it even worse. And then the break was over and he hadn't even had time to fix it, a sloppy Genjutsu placed on it to make it vanish but he was sure of it that Madara would feel the disruption in the air. He felt the sweat roll down his forehead and he clenched and unclenched his fingers, feeling very scared at the moment.

Shisui wondered if Hashirama made love with Mito on her brother's desk and blushed at the dirty thought, even Tobirama didn't miss the meaning behind it. He could help but glance at Shisui whose face resembled her Sharingan eyes.

Izuna and the rest watched the show unravel slowly on between the two friends. And Tobirama couldn't help but shiver at the inauspicious feeling that was invading his entire being. Somehow he had a feeling that his big brother would die by the hands of his best friend, Uchiha Madara.

Said furious person stood up in one smooth move, his brows creasing on his forehead as he growled dangerously at Hashirama, "What did you do, tree-hugger?"

"I-It was an a-accident…I didn't m-meant to d-dirty your p-p-precious red carpet." He laughed sheepishly, cursing his stuttering, but he couldn't stop it, especially since Madara was stalking towards him, his eyes glinting predatory and ominously. He had a feeling Madara would torture him for defying his precious carpet. If Kami could hear him now, he would appreciate a little bit of help now.

No matter how fun it was Shisui intervened the deadly tension, along with her big brother's killer intent that had risen to an insufferable amount. She squirmed uneasily, "Aniki, please, we need to finish this meeting. It's really important, you can clear the rest out later."

Izuna stopped Madara's path towards Hashirama who was hiding behind Shisui, seeking refuge from a human shield, "Are you using me as a shield?"

The brown-haired man nodded meekly, his eyes warily as he watched his best friend growl and trash wildly against Izuna's hold, even Sasuke had to hold him down. "Let me have him, I just want to rip off his hair and tear him to shreds! Release me at once!" He demanded angrily, his black tomoes spinning wildly, "How dare he have sex on my desk and spill his disgustingly fluid on my carpet!"

"Shisui-chan, I-I'm too young to die!"

"There, there, Hashi-kun.." She soothed him, stroking his brown soft hair, "Nothing bad will happen to you."

This made Hashirama look up at Shisui with stars in his eyes, "Did I mention how much I love you right now?"

She chuckled softly, nodding, "More than a million times." Turning more serious, she locked eyes with squad A and squad B, "Now, as you all know by now, you have been divided into two groups. Squad A will be going after the Ichibi, Sanbi, Gobi, Nanabi and the Kyuubi." She took a shuddering breath, remembering the Kyuubi's rampage that took many beloved ones from her. "Squad B will be going after the Nibi, Yonbi, Rokubi and the Hachibi. We'll be sealing them temporary in a summoning contract, which aniki will create nine of them, their sole purpose is to keep the locked until the sealing. Are there any questions?" She looked at the rest, silently wondering how her big brother became so serious after threatening to kill the Hokage. Occasionally, he was sneering at him, his eyes throwing imaginative giant, sharp daggers at him.

They blinked their eyes at her and she took that as a 'no'. "Good. For now let's focus on finding them. Izuna-nii heard from his resources that Kumogakure had already send the Gold and Silver Brothers to capture the Kyuubi." Thanks to her future knowledge, she knew what would happen to those treacherous duo but unfortunately, she couldn't voice that. "We must capture the Kyuubi before they do while being secretive about it. They must not, under any circumstances, know that Konoha is planning to seal them."

She gave the word to her brother, Izuna, "The Gold and Silver Brothers took the southern path. If we want to avoid them, we'll have to make a big detour from the eastern path towards the north side and then to move on to the west." He chewed on his lip, mulling it over, "That'll be the best way to avoid them but it will also take a great deal of time. Aniki, what do you think?"

Madara rubbed his chin, "It's the best way, besides you're better at this than I am." He closed his eyes and leaned against Hashirama's desk. No way would he be leaning or even remotely using his desk until it had been purified and disinfected.

Izuna nodded unnoticeably, looking at the rest of the occupants, "So…?"

Hashirama nodded, eyes closed, "We'll go with Izuna's plan, that seems the best course of action." Glancing at his little brother he sighed in dejection, he never wanted his little brother to carry such a burden but it seemed he had no choice in this matter. It was all needed for Konoha's safety. "For now the meeting is disclosed. We'll come back tomorrow to discuss the time of travel and the rest."

Everyone left the room, thinking about the facts that things would change heavily from now on.

Even Shisui was unsure of the future know, the path was changing, the future was changing and she could only hope she was changing it for the better.


Shisui sighed softly, picking up her grocery bags and walked out of the store, waving the shopkeeper farewell with a giant smile. "Arigatou Kuchi-san!"

"Anytime, Lady Shisui!"

She closed the door behind her, making sure that she was holding the bags tightly and walked towards the Senju's house. She had promised to cook something for Tobirama who wanted to taste one of her culinary delicacies. Smiling slightly, she hummed a melodious tune, thinking about her childhood days with Daisuke and Tetsu…

Those sure were the good days. She raised her head up, staring at the cloudless sky, the sun shining brightly on Konoha. Life passed by so quick, it could come to this world and leave soon in a whim. She tried to think what would have happened if all her brothers would have been with her, Sachiko included. Everything would have been so perfect; her dream was reality, she found the love of her life, peace was starting to spread, war was diminishing slowly, she had good friends …if only her mother and deceased brothers would have been here.

When she noticed the Yamanaka's Flower shop, she decided to make a detour, and walked inside. Soft chimes from the bells alerted the shopkeeper that a new customer had arrived. Many flowery aroma's invaded her nostrils and she inhaled it deeply, relishing in the addicting smell. She walked up to the cashier, smiling warmly at the blonde-haired Yamanaka, "Konnichiwa Yamanaka-san, I would like to buy three roses, apart, along with a bouquet of lilies."

The mind-reader nodded with a small blush on his cheek, he was so young and started getting the flowers she requested. When he picked the three roses, he wrapped it skilfully, then he placed them on the occupied desk, moving towards the fresh lilies, cutting them from the bottom. When he came back he wrapped the dozens lilies together and put an adorable bow around them, "That'll be two-thousand and fifty ryo, Lady Shisui."

"Here you go," Shisui handed the needed amount of money to the boy and took her purchases from him. "Arigatou!" She nodded at him since her hands were preoccupied and left the alluring smell, changing direction towards the Uchiha cemetery. After some small talks with the villagers, she arrived near the Uchiha gate, nodding in acknowledgement at the two Uchiha guards, who straightened their back at the sight of her, "Setsu-kun, Seichi-kun, how are the two of you faring?"

"We're doing perfectly fine, Lady Shisui." Setsu answered respectfully, his face sculptured in a slight frown, his twin nodded at her.

"Good, keep doing your work." With another smile, Shisui walked inside, biting her thumb as she touched the sealed gate. Seeing it glow a soft red, it clicked open and she walked through it, ignoring the closing of the gate. She had requested that special seals like this because she feared that someone would misuse the bodies or take the eyes from the Uchiha's who were kept intact with a sustainability seal that would keep the corpse intact and prevent it from rotting. Seals were so fascinating, anything could be created when your Fuinjutsu knowledge was immensely big.

Her light footsteps were unheard as she walked towards the Main house tomb, her eyes scanned the rest of the polished graves where fresh flowers were placed on them. The Uchiha's kept this place neatly and perfect, respecting the death above anything else, especially since all of these Uchiha's had fought for their survival. Stopping near the Uchiha Main tomb, she placed the grocery bags and the bouquet of lilies on the ground, only keeping the three roses for her precious deceased family members.

Standing up, she glanced at the guards and walked inside, sliding the wooden door open. The moment she stepped a foot inside, the smell of incense made her relaxed. Her eyes moved to the three tombs and with another deep intake, she walked towards them, her eyes itching at the remembrance of her beloved ones. To be honest, Shisui found the Mangekyou Sharingan a cursed power because to be frank, she wouldn't want a power that would remind her of her brother's death. Sure, it was good to have powers that any sane ninja would die for but at what cost?

It was like exchanging the life of your precious ones for power, which would eventually blind you…

Silently, she wondered how Itachi had coped with his Mangekyou Sharingan. He was very intelligent, even in his fourth year, he was talking fluently like an adult would. He must have noticed that great power came with great responsibility, surely, he had felt the ocular change, right?

She hoped he did because a blind ninja was a walking target for every enemy, maybe Itachi could dodge most of them but even he wasn't a God either.

She shook her head and bowed down till her nose touched the ground and straightened her back, her legs folded neatly under her as she stared intently at the three graves. "Kaa-san, Daisuke-nii, Tetsu-nii…it's me Shisui, again." She chuckled softly, "I hope I'm not annoying you three with my occasional visits." She looked down at the red roses, symbolizing pure love. "I've brought you fresh roses, I know it's getting boring, next time I'll bring different ones." Looking at Sachiko's grave, she stroked it gently, "Kaa-san, I'm sure you'll like this one. The Yamanaka's are great florists, you'd love their humongous gardens and the smell is so hypnotizing… It's as if you're drowning in them…" Afterwards, she kissed Sachiko's red rose and placed it on her grave, swapping it with the wilted red rose.

Turning her attention on Daisuke's grave, she smiled sadly, "Nii-san, I'm sure you'd love to teach the kids from now what the meaning of hard work is. The children from now are living so peacefully, you should see them, it's really a fresh breath to the heart…" Her hands turned into fists and she tried so hard to keep her emotions in check, "Y-you would h-have been so proud of Madara-nii, Izuna-nii and, of course, me. We c-created such a beautiful place where e-everyone could live happily." She repeated the same ritual and took the red wilted rose, one more grave to go.

Finally, "Hey Tetsu-nii, how a-are you doing? I'm sure you're d-doing fine because you're T-Tetsu that's why!" She spoke jokingly but there was nothing funny about it, in fact, it made her even angrier and sad. "I've brought you another flower, I know it's really girly, I'll bring some kunai's next time, alright?" Sniffing softly, she rubbed her eyes, making sure that Tetsu rose wouldn't break, it was so vulnerable, just like Tetsu's life. "Once again, nii-san, I-I-I'm sorry… I k-know that you would have hit me upside the h-head if you were here b-b-b-but nii-san…I just…m-miss you so much." A small hiccup escaped her throat and then the dam flowed open and she cried openly, cursing herself for being so emotional again. Kissing the soft petals, she placed it on his grave, taking the wilted one away.

"I miss all of you!" Her trembling hands were annoying her and she tried to hide them but then her teeth started chattering against each other. Deciding that it was futile, she gave up on stopping her shaking and bowed in respect towards her family members. The tomb wasn't boring per se but it missed their pictures and she had the perfect idea to do that. With wobbly legs, she stood up, rubbing her red, puffy eyes. "I love you all…," and then she turned around, her heart aching to see them again, to embrace them and just be with them.


By the time she had arrived at the Senju compound, it was already getting dark. How long did she even stay in the cemetery?

She just hoped Tobira- "Shisui!" A manly voice, one that she had thought about a few seconds ago, called out loudly, laced with a tinge of worry and concern.

"Tobi-kun! I'm sorry I'm late… I just visited the Uchiha cemetery." She explained softly, smiling softly at him.

He stared at her of a moment and with a slight nod, he let it go, knowing that she lost track of time when she was praying and talking to her deceased loved ones. She always got like that whenever she visited the graveyard. He wanted to make her pain go away but that was something impossible. The only way to make her stop hurting from the inside was to bring back her loved ones but that was unreachable. He wasn't a god, he couldn't bring back the dead, no matter how much he loved to, just to make her happy, he couldn't.

Like a gentleman, he picked the grocery bags from her, and stared at the fresh bouquet, "Is that for me?" He asked slyly, his eyes shimmering playfully.

Giggling, she thanked him for relieving her from the bags and cradled the flowers gently against her, "Depends."

"On what?" He arched his elegant silver eye brow, wondering what she could demand from him.

She chewed on her under lip, walking towards the door like a cat, "If you can catch me, that is."

Tobirama smirked smugly at her, his eyes glinting predatory, "That won't be a problem, miss Shisui."

"Oh really?" She asked in amusement, eye brow raised, "I'm known as Shunshin no Shisui."

He folded his arms, shaking his head, "And I'm Senju Tobirama. I have to keep to my reputation, don't I?"

Shisui only laughed openly, flashing inside the house as Tobirama followed after her, grateful for the fact that her boyfriend was trying her best to make her forget the pain, if only for a bit.


Pouting, she tried to get up, "Tobi-kun, I need to start making dinner."

"Not until you admit your defeat." He replied in a cocky voice, his body rendering her immobile as he had her pinned down on the couch, "Besides, dinner can wait."

Shisui puckered her lips out, squirming under him, "…come on." Continuing, "You almost killed the white lilies."

He shook his head, chuckling softy as he leaned forwards, stealing a kiss from her.

"Still not impressed," said a stubborn Shisui who was trying to her best to look unimpressed. It was really hard when her boyfriend was practically this close to her, and she swore she could hear her heart pounding so loudly that even he couldn't have missed it.

"I don't think your body is disagreeing with me, Shi-sui." Tobirama purred seductively in her ear, making her blush a pretty shade of red.

She shook her head, keeping her lips closed, eyes locked with him.

Smiling slightly at his stubborn girlfriend, "Hmm…we'll see how long you can keep that act." His hands slid down her body, down to her muscled ass and she almost squealed in shock when he pinched it but she had a sneaking feeling he would do that so she didn't say anything. Well, nothing vocally, her body did react to the touch, like always…

Her cheeks reddened even more and she cursed Tobirama for the victory-looking smirk on his as he moved his skilful lips to her throat, nibbling on her tender flesh as his hands moved under her tank top, crawling to her hidden breasts. She bit hard on her lips, not wanting to make a single sound but it was starting to get so difficult and she was getting hot. Struggling against his vice grip, she tried to escape him but he only tightened his hold on her, his legs straddling her and his hands keeping her locked.

…stupid Tobirama had to use a chakra-tag, where he had closed her chakra pathways until he used the key to re-open it.

Almost, she almost gasped when he pinched her nipples and fondled her breasts deliciously. "T-Tobirama, l-let me go…" She begged pitifully, her face bringing shame to the word red.

"Not until you concede your defeat.," was his muffled reply as he continued grazing her skin with his teeth. For some weird reason, Tobirama always filled her skin, mostly her throat, with hickeys. She did ask him why he kept doing that and he kept saying that she was his but somehow she had a feeling that there was something else behind those words. Never did she try to force the answer out of her but that didn't mean that she wasn't curious.

They did say that curiosity killed the cat, and she would rather not face a grumpy Tobirama. He didn't like to speak too much, well, she was an exception on that but even with her he had his limits. When he didn't want to answer a question from her, he wouldn't answer it until he felt like it. On that aspect, he was so much like her big brother, Madara.

Feeling that her control might slip, she tried to keep her mind busy with something, anything! "T-Tobi-kun, there is a rumour going on about you…" Thankfully, that interested him slightest and he looked up at her with half-lidded eyes, "Really?"

Maybe she could talk to him and then when he was distracted, she would turn the role around. "Uh-hu, about the white fur that you keep wearing." By now, she was sprouting some nonsense but if she was lucky enough, Tobirama would fall for it, especially when it was about his fur. He loved that so much.

"What about it?"

Mulling over that, she continued, "Well, they say it's bleached hair from the head of your slain enemies, is that true?"

Tobirama chuckled, his rich, smooth baritone voice rumbling and shaking with amusement and she could feel every twitching muscle from his perfectly shaped chest. "That's …definitely hit the spot."

"I kn- Wait what?!" Shisui looked at him in shock, her eyes wide open as she regarded her boyfriend with uncertainty and slight mortification, "That's actually try?! I just made that up!"

His crooked smirk made her curse inwardly, she just fell for his trap. "Sometimes I hate you."

"Sometimes you're so silly." Gently, releasing his hold on her, he just smiled softly, placing a hand on her cheek as he locked his lips with hers. Immediately, she returned the kiss, grateful that he freed her hands since she could wrap her arms around his neck.

So engrossed she was in the kiss that she didn't notice Mito watching them with hearts in her eyes, mentally gushing at how cute they looked together.

Moaning softly, she straddled his hip with her one leg, feeling his thick member twitch when she rubbed her pelvis against him. He grunted quietly, gripping her breasts a bit too hard. She squeaked from the pain and he kissed her soothingly, apologizing for it. Her hands moved towards his smooth silver hair, twisting it around her fingers.

Then out of nowhere, Tobirama snapped his head up, looking at something. She raised her eye brows when he glared, his cheeks taking a cute red tint. Clearing his throat, he spoke up, eyes closed and brows twitching in annoyance as he started to get up, making her pout again when his cosy warmth left her, "Mito-onee-san…I didn't take you for a voyeur?"

"Little Tobirama is growing into a fine man, especially with the way you treated Shisui-chan." Giggling softly, she tried to stifle them with her hands, keeping the dirty thought deep within her mind.

Shisui choked on her spit, "Mito-chan!" and inwardly she wondered why Mito was even looking at them. She straightened her clothes, ignoring Mito's lecherous look and then stood up. "I-I have to make dinner…," was her mumbling answer as her face heated up even more. Looking at her boyfriend, she asked him, "Are you going to help me, Tobi-kun?"

He nodded and the two left Mito's presence, well, Tobirama was scowling at her, while Shisui was hurrying to the kitchen to hide herself from Mito's strange gaze.
