Tajima was anything but gentle when he brought Taka back to the Uchiha compound. He dragged her back by her arm while her feet were unable to keep up with the pace and kicked out helplessly without finding any grip. The red of the sharingan was the only light that lit up the dark of the night as he made his way through the forest back to the complex. He had to hold himself back from seriously injuring her as he threw he into a bare, concrete room that held no windows or possible ways to escape other than the door itself. Two guards who heard the ruckus that Taka made came up to watch the door and sealed it to prevent her from breaking out. 'How dare she betray our family,' Tajima thought enraged by the shame she brought to the Uchiha. This would not be treated lightly and she would be thoroughly questioned once everything was set up.
Madara arrived back home not much later than Tajima had after he made sure that the tablet was undamaged. He strapped his weapons off and laid them out on the kitchen table as he sighed wearily when his father came into the room. "She's been taken to a holding cell." Tajima informed him at which he nodded in approval. "Madara, how on earth did you find out about this plot against us?" His father asked him. Madara flopped down on a kitchen chair, leaning his arm over the back of it as he thought back to the first time he had spotted Taka's odd behavior. He told his father about the time he came back to report about his mission concerning the Uchiha that were killed at the border and how he had found Taka looking out of sorts when he had opened the door. He knew the look of fear she had given him out of a thousand and her sudden question to go buy hair accessories was a mere diversion to not be caught snooping. Truthfully, people didn't Madara enough credit for the fact he was able to mask his inner thoughts to the point he could fake being less intellectual than he actually was.
Ever since that time Madara had kept a close eye on her in case anything else would come up. His suspicions were confirmed the day he went to see the blacksmith and discovered the unfamiliar autograph in the register. Madara knew every Uchiha member by name and the only person named T. Uchiha was his father Tajima and Madara certainly knew his father's handwriting by heart, which hadn't been the one in the register. When Madara inquired about the name the blacksmith informed him that his soon to be fiancé had visited the shop in order to buy weapons for him as a special gift. Little did the blacksmith know he was selling weapons that were later used by rogue ninjas to kill their own kind. Most likely Taka had passed down the weapons to the rogues herself in one of their secret meetings. She was quite cunning to take on the name of the Uchiha before they were married so no one would notice her purchase and her plan to make it look like an inside job. Had Madara not seen the rogues himself then who knows what they would have made of a scene where only Uchiha members died by the use of their own weapons. No one would have suspected outsiders to be involved, that's for sure.
"When she joined us yesterday to talk about the wedding I knew she would not be able to resist eavesdropping on us after I mentioned wanting to talk to you about the rogues. It was the only way I could think of to lure her out so we could catch her in action." Madara explained to Tajima. Most of the story was, however, made up solely for that purpose. There was no actual news about stronger rogues planning to attack the Uchiha, nor would their sharingan become weak after the next full moon. But, he needed Taka to think that it would. For sure Taka would feel the urgency to act upon the information that Madara had mentioned to his father and hurry to the Naka shrine to find the tablet so she could prevent Madara from studying it and either take it or destroy it. Then, the Uchiha would not have a solution to deal with a weak moment and be fully vulnerable to her plan to overthrow them. She was only given a very short time frame to fulfill this mission; if she wanted to be successful it had to be this night.
Tajima seemed to understand the full picture now and commended his son for his actions to uncover Taka's betrayal. "You even had me fooled." Tajima chuckled and patted Madara's shoulder. Madara didn't like lying to his family, but he had to make sure that even Tajima would play along and not suspect any underlying reasoning. His father seemed to recognize the importance of that fact. For now, they couldn't be sure whether the rest of Taka's family was involved in the matter or if she was on a solo mission. Nevertheless it would become a sleepless night for the both of them.
At the break of dawn Tajima and his right hand advisor were setting things in motion to question Taka. It was customary for the Uchiha to out traitors in the middle of the complex where everyone could gather publicly to watch and vote. Soon enough word spread that there would be an interrogation in the middle of the square and slowly people were drawing in to see what it was all about. Izuna's sleepy head made an appearance beside his older brother wondering what was so important that his father made him get up at such an early hour. Madara chuckled and ruffled he younger's hair. "Trust me you don't want to miss it." Madara said as he remembered his younger brother's fit after hearing Madara was going to marry and move away.
Tajima gave a formal speech to the crowd and informed them of what was going to occur. Shocked expressions and whispers passed between the clan members at the discovery of Madara's fiancé being a traitor. The two guards brought their captee to the middle of the square where she was placed before the council of elders along with Tajima and his two sons. Madara would get the honors of questioning her intentions further seeing as he was the one who had to deal with her treachery. He had waited for this moment ever since discovering her in the shrine. Taka was looking at him rather calmly, which further instigated Madara's anger to boiling point. How could she be so calm when he was about to rip her head off?! It was suspicious and Madara narrowed his eyes at her as he closed the distance between them. When he was standing at a mere few feet from her she kept her eyes aimed up to look back at him fiercely. His hands were itching to grab her by the throat and set her ablaze, but not before he would get the answers he wanted.
"Let me explain this in a way you can understand," he spoke to her, his voice seething, "either you tell me what I want to know, or…" He activated his sharingan in a split second as she entered into his genjutsu world where he created a nice torturous scene for her to enjoy where she could see her family slain one by one by his own hands. As he broke the genjutsu she came crashing back to herself and panted in fear with the memories of her loved ones dying gruesome deaths before her own eyes. She knew that Madara would make it a reality if she didn't cooperate and besides, she knew she had to push forward now that she had the chance. The Senju had finally allied with the Hyuuga and they were stronger now than ever. The day had come to go against the Uchiha.
"Tell me," he grabbed her chin roughly and pulled it up so she faced him, "were you planning this all along?" It was the most important question that he wanted answered, because if she had been then they had all been fooled from day one. Taka nodded at him and by that confirmed his entire theory. It was her who had provided the Uchiha weapons to the rogues as a cover. They were spies and hitmen paid by the Hyuuga to assassinate Uchiha border patrollers. "Were you acting alone?" Madara asked, needing to know because if she wasn't the danger was not yet over. Taka grinned at him and jerked her head away so he would have to release his hold on her chin. "Of course I wasn't." She laughed at him and watched how her family ran out and formed a circle around the Uchiha members that were gathered in the square.
Madara's face paled for an instant before he drew his katana and jumped back so he could push Izuna behind his back for protection. Next to him, his father Tajima had also drawn his sword as more and more Uchiha members joined them in their stance. "Did you really think I would come here unprepared?" Taka said as she took her place by her family and glanced over to the black-haired boys. "It will be YOU who we take out first and then we will finally overthrow the cursed clan of hatred. The Uchiha will cease to exist!" Her words were filled with so much loathing that she made a maniacal expression. "Now that we have the alliance with the Senju there is no way that you can take us down. It was the plan all along to wipe you out and merge forces with the Senju." She smiled at her little victory and knowing that a few of her spies had already taken precautions when she was captured, sending someone running to the Senju clan to make sure back up would arrive promptly. The Uchiha were taken aback by the news of an alliance between Hyuuga and Senju, only being aware of the recent union between Hyuuga and Uchiha which had now proven to be a scam in the end. Uchiha and Senju had always been opposites… rivals… enemies. They were equally strong, but now the balance of power had shifted, hadn't it?
"S-Senju sama…" a young man came running in panting from the long distance he had run towards the Senju complex "the Hyuuga are under attack and require our forces to back them up." The messenger informed Butsuma who was sitting in the garden with his sons Hashirama and Tobirama. Butsuma rose out of his seat in a flash as the chair fell over backwards. Their newly formed alliance had only just come fruition and already there were enemies attacking them? Butsuma looked over to his sons, worry written over his face. "Hashirama you must come with me, Tobirama I want you to round up the men and follow our trail. Hashirama and I will go up ahead and hopefully prevent as much as we can." Both Senju brothers understood their assignments and quickly went into action.
