Sasuke

Naruto and I had walked aimlessly throughout town all day. He showed me where his favorite places to get food are and we even stopped to get a bite at one of them. It was called Ichiraku ramen and I was shocked to see him eat two large bowls of it.

Over the years I slowly added human food to my diet so it wouldn't make me sick. I could see why this place was one of his favorites. The ramen was delicious. We went get ice cream afterwards.

He ordered peanut butter cup while I got snickers and headed to the park to eat. We walked over to the first bench we saw, sat down, and ate our frozen treats together. It was peaceful. I loved being able to walk next to him on the streets and not have to worry about hiding my identity from anyone.

To everyone else, I looked like a normal human walking next to my boyfriend and I could tell he enjoyed it as well. He held onto my arm and rested his head on my shoulder as we walked together.

I watched as he took his spoon, put some ice cream on it, took a bite, and hummed. He did the same thing but this time but put the spoon in my mouth. I hummed as I tasted the combination of the sweat ice cream and the salty and nutty flavor from the candy that was mixed into it.

Sasuke I need you to come home now. We need to talk, bring your friend along as well.

My father said through our mind link.

Yes, sir, we'll be right there

"Your able to shapeshift right"? "Yeah. Why"? "My dad wants to talk to us". "How did he find out"? "I don't know but it's best we don't keep him waiting".

We didn't waste any time. I took Naruto by the hand and headed to the beach with him right away. I made sure no one was looking and jumped into the water turning back into my merrman form. Naruto did the same. I took him by the hand and swam off with him.

While swimming I realized the top part of his tail was orange and faded into yellow. I couldn't help but smile. I thought he was beautiful before but now it was multiplied by ten. We received a few strange looks from the citizens around us but I didn't care.

Once we made it to the palace I immediately headed inside with him, took him to the throne room where I knew my dads were and bowed to them along with him.

"Thank you for coming so quickly Sasuke". "Your welcome father. I'm assuming this has to do with me and Naruto"? "It does. Your papa found out about the two of you and told me himself". "I apologize for breaking the rules but if anyone has to be punished for this please allow it to just be me".

"Do you have any idea why that rule is there in the first place"? "Because of papa and Hibiki. Everyone knows that". "But no one knows what happened. Only your dad does"? Papa said sadly. "Papa"?

"Before Shisui was born mermaids and mermen could go up to the surface as many times as they wanted and even have a relationship if they wanted to but one person changed all of that.

Twenty five years in the past

Hashirama

"Madara, do you need anything? I'm heading out for awhile". I said as I was getting ready to head to the surface. "No I'm fine, thank you though". I made my way over to him and kissed his cheek. "Can we go with you papa"? My twin sons Stone and Obito asked swimming over to me and hugging my waist.

"Not this time my loves, I'm going to be very busy while I'm on the shore and I won't be able to watch you both but I promise I'll bring you both back something". I said smiling down at them.

"Alright". They said smiling up at me. Stone had a dark green tail like me while Obito had a purple tail. "I'll be home later today". I kissed all three of my boys by and left.

Once ashore I used a spell to transform into my human form as well as quickly dry my hair. I wore a brown jacket with a dark green  shirt, blue jean pants and black and white jordans. I didn't need a watch, I could tell what time it was by looking at the sky.

I did have a phone, however. I took it out of my pocket and used it to call an Uber. I told the driver where I was headed and he took me to my destination. Once there I climbed out leaving him a good tip and headed inside.

It was the house of Mito Uzumaki. She was a childhood friend of mine and had told me she needed to discuss something important with me. I walked up the stairs and knocked on the door. She opened it right away.

"Hi Hashi". She said smiling. Her red hair was down as she wore a beautiful sky blue dress with light makeup on. "Hello Mito". I said smiling back. "Please come in".

I made my way inside and followed her as she led me to the kitchen. "I already made tea for us, I hope you don't mind". "Not at all". I took my seat and allowed her to pour me a cup. I shouldn't have.

"How have things been"? "Good, I can't complain". She said sitting across from me. "How are you and your family"? "Good, Madara and I are thinking about having another baby". I took a sip of my drink. "Really? That's great". "Thank you". I smiled and took another sip.

"I need to make a confession, I didn't ask you over so we could talk about me. I called you over so I could talk about us". "What do you mean"? That's when everything started to go blurry for me. I tried to stand up but my entire body felt weird.

I called out to mito asking for help while also trying to hold onto something for support but the next thing I knew everything went black.

When I came to it was the next day and I was completely naked in Mito's bed and so was she. Panic took ahold of me quick as I quickly got out of bed, put my clothes back on, and rushed home. I jumped into the water as soon as I reached the beach turning back into my true form.

I swam home as fast as I could and ran into Madara's arms the second I saw him. "My love"? He said worriedly. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. Please don't hate me". I cried clinging to him tight. "I could never hate you. What happened"?

"I cheated on you". "You what"? He pulled away from me. The anger I saw in his eyes made me feel worse then I already was. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to". "We have kids Hashirama. How could you do this to them".

"I never wanted to hurt them or you I swear. It meant nothing to me. I can't even remember it". "We'll talk about this later, I need to leave before I do or say anything I'll regret". I broke down crying.

"Your pregnant"!? I asked as visited her on land. Madara was at home with the boys. He was still incredible mad at m. "Mhm and it's yours". She said smirking. "Good to know. He or she will be coming home with me when they're born".

"You're not taking my baby away from me Hashirama". She said glaring at me. "You have no say in this. This baby has royal blood running through their veins. They need to be with their father  who will love and care for them not their rapist mother". I said glaring back.

I knew Madara wouldn't be happy with that but I didn't care about that right now. My unborn child was more important.

Nine months later I went to the hospital the day Hibiki was born. I took him out of his crib and held him close to in my arms. He looked just like me and his older brother Stone. "Hi little one, I'm your papa". I said smiling down at him.

"He's beautiful my love". I turned my head and saw Madara standing behind me with a smile on my face. "Madara". "Let's take our son home hashi". He said gently.

"Y your not mad". "No, the two of you are innocent in this besides Stone and Obito have been wanting a younger brother for the longest time now". "Thank you". He kissed me and took us home.

"Now do you understand why that rule is there? It's so I can protect my people from having to go through with what happened to your papa". "With all due respect sir, I'm not like her. It's not fair to judge everyone off the actions of someone else". Naruto said.

"I'm not judging you young man, I barely know you but I have to do whatever I can to protect my son and my citizens". "Please reconsider father, I think the two of us bounded together". "You have"? "Yes sir, ever since I was a kid I've felt a pull towards him not only that but I gave him a ring. You know what that means".

He let out a sigh. "Does he make you happy"? "More then you'll ever know. "Very well then but you have to be the one to tell Sakura". "Gladly".
