I don't own Naruto. Edited.

Tobirama was healing up well and Hinata was somewhat happy with that fact, although…. He was still rude to her needlessly despite the fact she had helped him. Hashirama would offer her a small smile every now and then, but that didn't make her feel any better about the treatment she was receiving from his younger brother. It seemed he didn't realize the way Mito always looked at her either. She had done nothing to the woman and yet she stared at her all the time, that burning jealousy in her dark eyes. She sighed and decided it might be best if she go and look around on her own for a while.

She couldn't help but wonder why they seemed to hate her so much. She didn't think that she had actually done anything wrong, but then again she knew he would find any reason to be rude to her. Mito on the other hand was a different story, from the moment she met the other woman she looked at her like she was trash. Not that those looks were anything new to her. She glanced up at the trees that she had walked by and her lips twitched up into a small smile. She walked over to one of them and reached up to grab the green fruit hanging on one of the lower hanging branches. She smiled to herself in her success and placed the apple into her backpack she had brought with her. She stood on her tippy toes to grab at another, but she froze in her place as a hand snatched it off the branch.

"Hey, ghost eyes, how are you?" the amused voice came down at her. "You're kind of cute for a Kunoichi, y'know that?" the person said with an amused smirk. "S-sorry, if I am trespassing, Inuzuka-sama…" she whispered and bowed lowly as the taller woman dropped from the tree, the green fruit in her mouth held there by sharp canines. Kumo walked out from the shadows and laid down beside her feet. The Inuzuka woman slipped down and sat on the ground, using her large dog to prop herself up on.

"Don't worry, ghost eyes. You ain't trespassing, you're welcome here." The Inuzuka said as she tossed the apple up over her head and caught it. Her blazing blue eyes landed on Hinata and she smiled wolfishly, her sharp canines peeking out from between her lips. "That's a fairly attractive friend you have, it'd be a shame if something happened to the fool." She said and Hinata blinked. "W-which friend?" Hinata asked, which caused the Inuzuka to snort and laugh softly. "The stubborn one." She said as she took another bite from the apple. "Damn, it would be such a shame if he were to die. That face of his is very easy on the eyes." She sighed and her dog huffed from beneath her weight as she sprawled out backwards on top of him.

Hinata blinked as she watched the woman roll to her feet and begin bouncing the apple of the sides of her feet without missing a single beat. "So, I'm gonna take it that with the whole question of which one, you're claiming one or both of them, huh?" the woman asked as she kicked the apple up and sent it into a tree with a roundhouse kick. Hinata flushed dark red and shook her head rapidly. This action made the woman laugh once more.

"The name's Kaira." She greeted holding out her hand. Hinata took her hand and shook it softly. "H-Hinata…" she said softly and the Inuzuka grinned. "I know who you are, ghost eyes. I figured that out the moment the dark haired brother yelled for you that day. It was cute really." She said and Hinata blushed and shook her head. "He doesn't like me like that, he's my friend." Hinata said softly and the Inuzuka smirked as she circled her. "But you like him." She said and Hinata blushed a dark shade of red and shook her head rapidly. "I d-do not. He's just nice to me is all." She stammered and the older woman laughed lightly.

"Don't worry, I think the younger Uchiha has the hots for me." Kaira said with a smirk and Hinata looked at her oddly. "Hey, could work out in my favor." She said with a shrug and Hinata smiled at her. "I've never really gotten a close look at the older one because he never pays me any mind, only the younger one. The older one is always shit talking my clan." Kaira snorted with a roll of the eyes. "Can you believe there used to be five of those red eyed assholes running around?" Kaira asked and Hinata blinked at her oddly, she truly hadn't known that… it made sense as to why Madara was so angry, in all honesty.

"Hey, Ghost eyes… can I tag along with you today? Its dreadfully boring sitting around waiting on the brothers to come to my property and bicker all the time." She sighed and Hinata stared at her oddly. "What, there's nothing else to do. I can't watch them fight from anywhere else. It's never boring to watch them fight, one time they even burned off the white-haired ones shirt… man was that a day." She sighed wistfully and Hinata smiled at her, ignoring the comment about Tobirama completely. "A-Alright. You can come with me, but just for today." Hinata said and the woman grinned at her.

"Alright! Tomorrow I think I'll go mess with the white-haired fellow again, I sure do love seeing him all riled up." She said with a smirk and Hinata rolled her eyes lightly, which made the Inuzuka circle her with calculative eyes. "Did you… did you just roll your eyes at me? Interesting. Very interesting… there is a backbone in there somewhere." She said in amusement as she motioned for Kumo to follow with a snap of the fingers. "I could say I was offended, you little shit." The dog sighed at her and Kaira whirled on him. "Me? Me a little shit? Look at you furball." She snapped and the dog huffed in amusement. "I'm not the one who said it was boring. I am here for you, you know. I try to make things…. Much less boring." He said and Hinata turned to smile at him.

"She didn't mean you were boring; I think she meant that the two of you were bored and there seems to be nothing to do." Hinata said and Kaira gave her a look. "Yeah, what she said." Kaira said while looking at Kumo, then she looked to Hinata and quirked a brow. "So, you can talk to the mutt without a stammer but you shit yourself when you talk to humans?" she asked and Hinata blushed.

"Anyways, where are you headed today?" Kaira asked with a sigh and Hinata shrugged. "I was supposed to meet up with Tobirama later," she began and withheld a smile at the piqued interest of the Inuzuka beside her. "But for now, I'm supposed to do whatever. I was mainly gathering herbs and fruit." She said and Kaira grinned. "Alright, so what herbs are you looking for?" she asked and Hinata blinked.

"I can sniff out poisonous herbs, healing herbs, you name it I can find it." Kaira said and Hinata smiled at her. "Alright. I need these." She said and handed Kaira her list from her bag. Kaira looked over the list and quirked a brow. "You figured out the composition for my poison." She said and her brow furrowed. Hinata saw the irritation flicker through her eyes and Hinata made a move to step backwards, but the Inuzuka hound didn't let her back too far away.

"I'm not angry with you, just more so how swiftly you figured out the composition, so he is perfectly fine, right?" she asked and Hinata tilted her head and nodded lightly. "Good. My poison has taken many lives, and I didn't want to have to kill him. But he is a stubborn ass and wouldn't go. I couldn't give the impression that I was bluffing now, could I?" she asked with a sigh and Hinata smiled. "I understand perfectly." She said and the Inuzuka woman smirked.

"There we go no stammer." She said and Hinata smiled. "Anyways, let's go find these for you." Kaira said and Hinata smiled at her. "No doubt you'll need them in the future." She said and Hinata nodded. "Seems like Tobirama is still going to be hardheaded. I'm interested in seeing how he will react to seeing me." Kaira chuckled lowly, an amused glint in her eyes. "So little miss, hop on." Kaira said and motioned to Kumo, who gave her a wolfish smirk. Hinata knew she was going to regret this…

She hopped onto Kumo's back and he stood to his full height, causing her to grab fistfuls of fur so she could hold on. He took off and she had barely concealed the surprised yelp that had left her. Hinata leaned into Kumo's back as she had seen Kiba do so many times before. The ride on the back of the large dog seemed a lot less harsh after she had done this. Her eyes shot forward and she saw Kaira flinging herself from tree to tree, her nails leaving deep gashes in the bark, which surprised Hinata. Kaira had looked back at her and Hinata's eyes went wide. Kaira's pupils were no longer round like normal eyes, instead the pupils had become slits. Her eyes seemed to glow like a blue flame in the shadows, the already neon color of her eyes seeming to become iridescent and leave trails of color behind her every time she moved.

They landed in a clearing and when they hit the center of it, she stood to full height and turned to grin at Hinata. Her pupils had gone back to normal and the glow of her eyes had dulled. She had seen this before. The nine tail's chakra did this to Naruto's eyes, except his turned red. "Um… Kaira." Hinata called and the Inuzuka looked back at her, an interested shimmer in her blue eyes. "It's refined. The beast is not sealed within me. However, my father by blood had stolen some of the beast's chakra and sealed it within himself." She explained as she began picking the herbs that Hinata needed.

Hinata sat down in the clearing and began picking them as well, while Kaira continued to stand. "You aren't going to run away as well, are you?" she asked suddenly and Hinata looked up at her and smiled. "No." she said as she continued to gather the herbs. "Thanks… everyone else runs." She sighed and Hinata looked over at her. "It's not like you could have done anything about it so why would you care what they think?" she asked softly and Kaira grinned.

"I like you, Hyuuga. The rest of you are such pricks that they drive me insane." Kaira said and Hinata blinked at her. "My uncle is a Hyuuga. None too nice. The only one in my so-called family that somehow managed to become something interesting, but then again he's not blood related. Just marriage." She said and Hinata smiled. "Yeah… that seems to be an issue." She sighed as she placed the herbs into containers and labeled them.

"So, why do you live with the Senju and not the Hyuuga?" Kaira asked and Hinata pursed her lips. "Not related by blood just marriage. And they wouldn't have anything to do with me even if I were. I'm too nice. I'm with the Senju because… I have a feeling that something bad is going to happen if the Senju brothers keep fighting with the Uchiha." Hinata said with a smile and Kaira smirked at her. "Figured as much." She replied and Hinata couldn't help the smile that crossed her lips. "So why are you so different than your clan? And what did you mean by the chakra was refined?" she asked, hoping that she wasn't asking too many questions.

"I will answer both of those but you have to answer another for me, alright?" Kaira asked and Hinata nodded with a small smile. "Alright, so I don't live with my clan because I'm a bastard child. They won't recognize me as part of the actual clan because I'm illegitimate." She said and Hinata frowned. "I suppose that's for the best though, you should start your own clan of man beast hybrids, create a new Inuzuka clan." Hinata said and Kaira smirked. "I planned on it. The rest of my clan are from a different clan, their name basically means echo and it kills me... My last name is all my own." She said then rubbed the back of her neck.

"The Bijuu chakra within me is so refined and diluted that the only thing it does is enhance my agility, enhance my strength, and obviously changes the way my eyes look." She explained and Hinata smiled at her. "Well, that's no reason to fear you." Hinata said with a smile and Kaira's brow raised. "It is if I can't control my temper." She said with a smirk. "Enhanced strength is frightening when I'm angry." She said offhandedly. Hinata nodded in understanding.

"Well, you seem like a nice person, so I still don't think your abilities should be feared." Hinata said softly and Kaira watched her in silence. Hinata picked the last of her herbs and stood, only stopping to look over at the other girl. Kaira's eyes were soft, they didn't have the usual haughty look to them instead there was a sadness that resided there. "A nice person?" she asked and Hinata nodded with a smile. "Even though I darted that guy in the neck, curse like an old man, and have killed more people than I care to admit… you still think I'm a nice person?" she asked in disbelief.

"Of course. Just because someone has had to do terrible things in their life, that doesn't make them a terrible person." Hinata said as she slipped the last box into her bag. She glanced over at the woman once more from the corner of her eyes, she just stood there her whole body relaxed now. "Thank you, Hinata…" she said and Hinata smiled brightly at her. "So…" she began and Hinata didn't like the tone in her voice. "When I said the attractive one, why did you have to ask which one?" Kaira asked as she skulked around behind Hinata, a smirk on her lips.

Hinata flushed a dark red then looked up at the sky. "Ah, looks like I should be heading back, the sun is going down." Hinata fumbled out and turned to the direction they had arrived from and began running. Kaira laughed and took off after her. Kumo swooped Hinata up and she landed on his back. "Hold on kid." He said and she nodded. "Hey Hinata, is there any way I can help in preventing whatever you think is gonna happen from happening?" Kaira asked as she ran beside Kumo. "I'm not sure." Hinata said then looked at the Inuzuka woman. She hadn't activated that chakra yet but she was still able to keep up with the wolf hybrid.

"I might have an idea but I will tell you later." She said and Kaira grinned, then her eyes took on the ethereal glow, her pupils narrowing into slits. Hinata watched in awe as she darted forward and grasped the trees and threw herself from one branch to another, a vicious grin on her lips as she did so. They came to the clearing in the trees where the Senju compound was and Kaira turned to leave, but Hinata grabbed her by the wrist. "Come in with me." she said and Kaira frowned but nodded.

Kumo followed them as well, he wasn't going to be left outside. He wasn't some filthy mutt.

When Hinata had entered the gates of the compound, all movement had halted. "Lady Hyuuga, welcome back." They said, then they noticed Kaira with her and began whispering. Hinata saw a familiar face press their way through the crowd of Senju who had caught sight of Kumo and had huddled away from him. Hinata walked over to him and scratched him behind the ears, which he tried his hardest not to react to, but his tongue flopped out the side of his mouth and he release a contented grunt. This caused Kaira to laugh loudly, which caught Hashirama's attention.

"Hinata…" he began, but he couldn't break his eyes away from the large hound, or the woman beside Hinata. "Hey cutie, where's your brother?" she asked with a smirk, which caused Hashirama to cough and look away from her. Hinata repressed the laugh that tried to escape her, if Mito had an issue with her, she could only imagine how she would be towards Kaira. He rubbed his face and looked towards Hinata. He couldn't have heard the Inuzuka right. "Did she just say what I think she did?" he asked, his tone confused.

"Oh, honey no… you're one of those…" Kaira said, her shoulders slouching and her features becoming disappointed. "Hinata, he's the dense type…" she whispered in the younger girl's ear, who then blushed and looked away. A smirk found its way back to Kaira's lips upon seeing this. "Hashirama, was it?" Kaira asked and the dark-haired male looked back at her and nodded.

"Kaira Inuzuka. Nice to meet you, civilly." She greeted, holding out her hand to him. He took her hand and shook it, his grip firm. "Nice to meet you outside of a fight as well. My father was wanting to meet with you, so it's nice that you would come here of your own volition." He said with a smile, which Kaira couldn't help but return with one of her wolfish ones. "U-um… Hashirama-kun." Hinata called and the dark-haired male pulled his hand from Kaira's to turn himself to face Hinata.

"Kaira and I have been out g-gathering poisonous herbs so we need to clean ourselves and you m-may need to as well." Hinata stumbled over her words, seeing the Inuzuka woman grinning at her because she was still avoiding the previous question. "Oh! Right!" Hashirama exclaimed and looked to Kaira and offered a swift bow, before he smiled at Hinata. After he had gone to wash his hands Kaira looked over at Hinata with a smirk.

"I see why you like him." Kaira said as she leaned to see Hashirama crouching to grab a wash basin from the bottom of a storage shed. Her blue eyes appraising the view. "K-Kaira!" she stammered as her face darkened once more. Kaira laughed once more as she followed behind Hinata. "What, you saying you weren't staring too?" Kaira mused as she motioned towards Hashirama's backside. Hinata shook her head rapidly with an ever-growing blush. "No! I wasn't!" she hissed softly at the woman, who only offered a smirk. Hinata could already tell that having Kaira around Hashirama was going to start trouble.

As they walked by the brunette male Kaira reached to do something but Hinata grabbed her and yanked her out of reach of Hashirama. Hinata was blushing furiously as she tried to get Kaira to keep her hands to herself. "For a guy he's got a nice-" "Kaira n-no!" Hinata stammered and Kaira laughed loudly once more. "Relax Ghost eyes. I was just gonna give it a little squeeze." Kaira said with a shrug and Hinata looked at her horrified.

"I-in here." She stammered and tried to shove Kaira into the room Hashirama had given her. "Ok, Kaira, there's a bathroom back there you can change into some of my clothes and wash up if you'd like." Hinata said as she tried to reign in her internal screams. Kaira smirked at her and made her way back to the back of the house, only returning about fifteen minutes later half-dressed and her hair wet. "Who knew you wore shorts." Kaira said and Hinata nodded, trying to subtly motion for the brunette to cover some of her cleavage.

"I'll finish getting somewhat presentable you go and wash up." Kaira said and Hinata nodded. She sighed as she gathered her fresh clothes and headed towards the bathroom. Kaira walked over to the door and opened it to let Kumo out, but there was someone at the door about to knock. A smirk crossed her lips as she was face to face with Hashirama. "You come here often?" Kaira asked with a smirk as his face flushed dark red. He turned away and covered his eyes.

"Hashirama father wanted to see them, what is the hold up?" Tobirama sighed and tried to shove past his brother, but the Inuzuka woman sitting on Hinata's couch with her blouse loosely tied caught his eyes, loosely tied meaning her chest was pretty much hanging out of her shirt. "Oh, for the love of-" Tobirama scowled and turned away, the faintest hint of pink on his cheeks. "Get dressed, you vile woman." He snapped and Hinata squeaked from down the hallway. "K-Kaira!" she called and the brunette snickered as she made her way back into the back of the house. "Come h-here." They heard Hinata stammer and they both dropped their hands from their eyes.

"Thank you Hinata." Hashirama called and Hinata made a noise signaling she heard him. Tobirama sneered at the Inuzuka woman who strolled so casually towards him, her shirt tied this time. "If you lay a hand on me, I will drown you." He sneered and she smiled at him. "Awe. Drown me in kisses I'd hope." She whispered as she slipped around him. "Never." He ground out and she trailed a clawed finger across his jaw. "What a shame…" she whispered as she trailed a clawed finger down his chest.

He grabbed her wrist and she only stared at him. "I wouldn't have had to poison you if you weren't so damn stubborn you know." She said and his upper lip twitched in anger. "I didn't want to have to hurt you, I really didn't. but I couldn't let you think I was bluffing either." She said and he didn't even bother hiding his scowl. Hashirama was confused, but the only person he could ask for any sort of help in figuring this situation out would be Hinata and she was down the hallway.

"Don't kill each other. I will be back." He sighed and Kaira grinned as she yanked her hand out of his grasp. "I wouldn't kill you dear, you're too pretty for me to kill." She said and blew him a kiss as she made her way back to the couch, Kumo following her every step. "I'd drown you and hide the body." He snapped and she smirked at him as she tossed her hair over her shoulder as she licked her lips seductively.

"I know where I would hide your body." Kaira said and he blinked at her in confusion. She opened her mouth to speak once more, but Hinata threw a pillow at her face. "K-Kaira no!" Hinata stammered, which made Kaira burst out in laughter. Hashirama and Hinata both sported dark blushes while Tobirama was just confused and angry. Kaira was holding her stomach in her laughter, while Tobirama just continued to get angry.

"It's hilarious because princess and clueless knew what I was going to say but you… Mr. high and mighty… you don't have a damn clue as to what I was saying." Kaira said as she gathered her composure. "Goes to show who has the dirtiest minds in the room." Kaira snickered as she looked over at the two long haired teens. "You're a p-pervert Kaira. It's not hard to t-tell." Hinata scolded and Kaira grinned.

"I'm just flirting, it's harmless." She said as she stood, her blue eyes emitting a flirtatious glow. "Unless he likes it rough, which is what it looks like." Kaira said as she slipped her sandals back on. "I'm not in this." Tobirama sneered as he walked out of the house, leaving the door wide open. Kaira watched him leave with an amused glimmer in her eyes. "Hate to see him go but I damn sure love to watch him leave." She whistled and Hashirama coughed and made his way out the door as well, but Hinata was right behind him so Kaira had no choice but to swiftly follow.

"Aw come on Hinata, you have to admit it was funny." Kaira sighed as she tried to circle around in front of the blunette. "Kaira, no." Hinata scolded but Kaira grinned at her. "Kaira yes." She said and examined her sharp nails. "Uh… lady Kaira." Hashirama began and the flirtatious Inuzuka glanced up at him. "Why did you hurt my younger brother?" he asked and she frowned. Hinata watched the two of them silently, wondering if she was going to flirt or be honest.

"As I said. I didn't want to hurt anyone; I just want you to stop fighting. It isn't even about my property." She said and Hinata looked over at her. "I can list off the names…" she whispered and Hinata furrowed her brows. "Itama Senju, Kawarama Senju, Hiseki Uchiha, Hibiki Uchiha-"she was going to continue but Hashirama fisted his hands and had stopped moving. His hair hid his eyes from view and Hinata frowned. She understood now.

Those were Madara and Hashirama's younger brothers.

Kaira's eyes held a sadness she didn't want to see there again. She now knew why Kaira was always either flirtatious or brash, it was to hide her pain. "I'd tried to save them but seeing as I had only been a child myself, there was nothing I could have done." Kaira said and Hinata nodded at her. Kaira offered a grin, but the glistening of her eyes said she was still upset. "Hashirama…" Hinata called, encasing one of his fisted hands in both of hers. "We need to speak with your father." She said softly and he nodded. He tilted his head back and she saw the glistening of his own eyes. She released his hand and it unfurled from the fist it had been in. He turned to the two girls and offered a smile. "How about we hurry along then?" he asked and they nodded.

When they entered his fathers' meeting room Butsuma smiled and greeted them respectfully. "Hinata, I heard you had an idea as to how to stop this feud with as few casualties as possible, and I heard that this is why Miss Inuzuka has agreed to come along with you." Butsuma said and Hinata blinked in surprise, only to look over to Hashirama who nodded at her. She hadn't told anyone of her plan. She didn't even really have one…

She was so confused.

She looked back over to Kaira, who was just as confused as she was. "Um…" Hinata began and she felt Tobirama's eyes on her, those searing red eyes. "I think we can resolve this war with little to no more casualties if we work together with lady Kaira." Hinata said slowly, trying her hardest not to stammer. The room erupted in whispers of interest. "And… how do we go about trying to end this feud?" one of the Senju elders asked. "Why don't we kill the Uchiha brothers and end it that way?" he asked and Hinata frowned.

"What I have learned… is that we do not gain cold… we just have an absence of heat." Hinata began and all eyes were on her. She swallowed softly and tried to control her shaking fingers. "What I think we have… is not an abundance of hate," Hinata started and Hashirama's eyes widened slightly. "But instead, what we have is an absence of love…" she whispered and the elder clamped his mouth shut as the room erupted in whispers once more.

"We cannot go on killing each other and not expect for this to get even m-more out of hand. The Senju Uchiha feud does not just affect the S-Senju and the Uchiha anymore." She said softly and some people made irritated noises, but for once Tobirama wasn't among them. "If you don't agree with me, Kaira also has I-input that would make you think o-otherwise." Hinata stammered and scolded herself internally for doing so.

Butsuma and his clan elders looked at the woman in curiosity. "To speak the absolute truth. Your war has never only affected the Senju and the Uchiha." Kaira said and they listened in silence. "I could name you off every one of the names of the Senju, Uchiha, and Hagoromo children that I have watched die. I knew every last one of their names because their names are what urged me to become stronger. Children are not objects of war. They are not weapons. They are babies. They have no idea what they are doing, and yet they have been forced to die for something they have no idea the reasoning of. WE were babies…" Kaira said forcefully and her eyes locked with Butsuma's.

"Itama Senju, Kawarama Senju." She whispered as tears filled her eyes. "Their deaths were the most frightening. My father had tried to save Kawarama but failed. I tried to save Itama. But I failed. In our failures, my father panicked. He stole the chakra of the nine tailed fox so he could try to keep me safe, and this is what it has done to me." Kaira said as her claws embedded themselves into the table, her eyes began to glow like a blue flame, and her pupils narrowed into slits.

The elders seemed to cower away from her in their seats, but Butsuma stood his ground. Her chakra faded away and she sat back down. "I was forced to become a monster because my blood father didn't want me to die by your hands, or the Uchiha's." she finished softly. Kaira stared at her trembling hands and she took a deep breath. Butsuma glanced around the table and the amount of shame that he saw on the faces of his elders determined what the outcome would be.

"Hinata, how do you wish to go about ending this feud?" Butsuma asked and Hinata smiled softly. "There are two ways we can go about this…" Hinata began hesitantly and they listened to her as she spoke. "Either Kaira stays here with us Senju and we try to work it out by subduing the Uchiha brothers…" Hinata said softly but Kaira interrupted her with a smirk. "I have a condition to this version of the plan." Kaira inputted, making Butsuma stare at her in shock. "And what might this condition be? I'm sure we would be able to gladly make accommodations." He said and a wicked grin crossed Kaira's lips. Before the 'Kaira no' could even be uttered from Hinata, Kaira had already made her proposition.

"Tobirama Senju must marry me." she said and the room hit a wall of dead silence. Hinata and Hashirama's eyes were wide and they couldn't break their gazes from the woman. Butsuma seemed to be pondering this, and that is actually what scared his white-haired son, however Akane Senju, who had been sitting beside her husband this entire time, cracked a smile. Tobirama lunged to his feet and glared at the brunette as he passed her, who blew him a kiss as he stormed out of the room. "Tobirama, come back!" his father snapped and the white haired male returned to the room.

Hinata stared at the Inuzuka with wide eyes, while Hashirama was looking from his younger brother on his left, to the Inuzuka woman on his right. He did not want to be in the center of this, so he took a couple of steps backward. He was just grateful she hadn't asked for him to marry her. The woman was in no way his type, she was too… vulgar.

"I suppose it's settled then, isn't it Akane?" Butsuma asked and the white-haired woman nodded her head with a small smile.

:-:-:

The room was dark and it felt odd. He knew there was something wrong, but he couldn't place it in his mind. The air of the room just felt… odd. The young man reached to light a candle, but a hand snaked around him. He flicked a kunai from his pouch and spun to face the intruder, only to come face to face with glowing blue eyes. "You." He growled and she smiled at him. It was a predatory smile. "Oh dear… you do look nice up close." She said and the young man choked on his air as she reached behind him with one hand and she dug her nails into the tender skin of the wrist of the hand he held the kunai in.

The candle hit the floor and the door burst open. The light revealed the Inuzuka woman and the very compromising position the two were in. He had been pressed up against the end table with her body flush against his. One of her hands was holding his free one above his head, the other was holding the hand with the kunai off to the side. One of her knees were jammed between his thighs while the other had her foot on his other foot to keep it on the floor. "Oh umm… sorry to barge in… Madara…" Izuna coughed, trying to hide his blush as he turned around.

"Izuna this is most definitely not what you think it is." Madara managed, his face flushed as well, but his voice held anger. The younger brother didn't turn around, nor did he uncover his eyes. "Aww… don't be angry love… this is a fun little game we are playing." She whispered in his ear in amusement, only moving back slightly to watch his fingers tremble and his Adams' apple jump slightly as he swallowed nervously.

Kaira grinned and tossed her hair over her shoulder with a toss of the head. "Who knew it would be this easy to turn on the almighty Uchiha." She whispered with a laugh as she ran the tip of her nose up the nape of his neck, her warm breath dusting over his exposed skin. Only for her sharp teeth to nip at his neck, sending chills down his spine. "Izuna, for the love of god please help me." Madara pleaded, his voice sounding severely strained. "How the hell am I supposed to help you Madara?" Izuna asked incredulously.

"How the hell should I know?!" Madara snapped, only for her to move her knee ever so slightly. "Oh, for the love of god Izuna sacrifice yourself for me. I can't do this!" Madara whimpered and Izuna turned to look at him with wide eyes. "Again, what the hell do you expect me to do about it!? She's all over you, not me!" Izuna said and Kaira leaned away from Madara the slightest bit to look at him with sultry blue eyes.

"I could change that." She whispered with a lick of the lips and Izuna's eyes went blank, a small trickle of blood falling from his nose. "Oh, for the love of everything that is holy." Madara whimpered. "What the hell is going on in here?" an irritated voice asked and Kaira sighed, her fun ruined now. "Inuzuka." "Tajima-san." She greeted as she released Madara's wrists. She patted him on the cheeks gently with a smirk as she stepped away from him.

"You came here to speak with me, not send my sons into a hormonal rampage." Tajima sighed as she followed him out into the hallway. "Perhaps I came to both?" she offered and he sent her a glare as they vanished from sight. Once she was gone Izuna looked at his brother with an odd look.

"You're gross." He said and Madara glared at him. "How the hell am I gross?" he snapped and Izuna shook his head and stepped backwards. "Seems we figured out how you like it." Izuna said with an amused tone. "For the love of god Izuna if you were anyone else, I would murder you. You're the one who almost busted one all over himself when she said one little phrase." Madara snapped and Izuna blushed. "At least I wasn't as effected." Madara grumbled and Izuna snorted. "Brother you wouldn't know what to do with a woman like that." Izuna said and Madara gave him a dirty look. "Neither would you, you'd be her little bitch."

"Bondage slave."

"Lightweight."

"Kink whore."

"Virgin."

"I am not!" Izuna snapped and Madara chuckled. "Of course not."

"How do you think Kaira will fare with the Uchiha?" Hashirama asked as he sat beside her on her front steps. "Well, s-seeing as Tobirama refused to marry her and then ran out once m-more… I think she will have to make do." Hinata said softly and Hashirama chuckled lightly, catching Hinata's attention. "I think I feel bad for Madara and Izuna." He said and Hinata blinked up at him in confusion.

"H-how so?" she asked and Hashirama laughed once more. "She's a Kunoichi. She's not just any Kunoichi, she's an experienced Kunoichi." He said and she blinked up at him owlishly. "I'm not quite sure I understand." She said softly and he blushed the slightest bit when he caught her gaze. "Um… well… what I mean is…" he began trying to avoid her innocent eyes. "She's trained in seduction." He said with a cough and Hinata giggled lightly. "I know what that means." Hinata said softly then looked up at him.

"She's one that Madara would find hard to resist. Lord knows she knows how to use what he gave her. She's distracting." He sighed and Hinata felt the slightest bit of jealousy well up in her chest, perhaps this was why Mito looked at her like that all the time. Upon feeling her chakra change Hashirama looked over at her. "Are you alright?" he asked and she nodded. "I'm not attracted to her if that's what you think. I just think her immodesty is astonishing." He fumbled over his words and she laughed lightly as she looked over at him.

"Don't panic, Hashirama-kun. I only think you need to worry about umm…" she began then he watched her with curious eyes as she blushed and fumbled with her fingertips. "I think you should more so worry about her being um. Grabby..." She whispered lightly and he furrowed his brows. "I'm not sure I understand." He said and she blushed darker and shook her head. "It's n-nothing." She whispered and he blinked at her.

"Grabby?" he muttered to himself and then he blushed as Hinata stood and dusted off her rump. His face lit up in realization and when Hinata caught his eyes she blushed darker. "You mean she was trying to grab my…" he began as he stood and Hinata nodded with a dark blush on her cheeks. "O-oh…" he managed and dusted himself off as well, a small pink blush dusting his cheeks.

"That's also w-why she said she hated to see Tobirama l-leave, but she l-loved to watch him go." She stammered and Hashirama blushed. "That woman is weird." He said and Hinata nodded lightly. "I think she genuinely wanted Tobirama to marry her though…" Hinata whispered and Hashirama quirked a brow. "But why?" he asked and Hinata repressed a small laugh. "I'm not sure. Maybe one day she will tell me." Hinata whispered and he smiled at her.

"Thank you Hinata. I had no idea if you actually had a real plan or not… I just overheard you talking to lady Kaira about a way to end the feud. It looks like it may work as long as the Uchiha are willing to listen to her reasoning." He said and she smiled. "I was trying to get her in on my plan as well, and it seems she was. I wanted her to go to the Uchiha either way, but I figured it might have been easier if we had only had to subdue them." She said and he shook his head.

"We could never subdue Madara completely. He's too stubborn, but I think dealing with Kaira is going to be a massive distraction."
