Hashirama

It was hot out as I walked the streets with my two sons and husband. Madara and I both had the day off so we decided to let the boys skip school for the day and spend it together. Our sons Obito and Stone we're three-year-old fraternal twins.

A year after the village was made Madara and I decided to get married. A year after that the boys came along. Stone looks like me while Obito looks like Madara. At first, there was talk about rather or not we should be allowed to get married. Everyone thought Madara was no good for me.

They thought he would use my good name to his advantage and corrupt me. Whenever the villagers looked at him they saw the tyrant Uchiha leader. They didn't see the kind, loving, gentle man I fell in love with.

I knew it hurt Madara. All he wanted was for him and his clan to be accepted but the villagers couldn't do that. It was the same way with Tobirama and Izuna. Not many people know about Tobirama's depression. He's only confided in a few people.

He relies on Izuna a lot. He's the only one that can comfort him when his demons try to take ahold of him. If it weren't for him I'm afraid Aki and I would've lost Tobirama and a long time ago. The villagers don't see that though. They don't see how beneficial Izuna is to Tobirama.

They think he's just like Madara. Part of that is true. They can both be ruthless when it comes to battles but out of the two of them Izuna is the nicer and more trusting one. His face isn't as stoic as his elder brothers. Their little sister Ryuko is the same way.

I don't care what the villagers think. I wouldn't give Madara up for anything in the world.

"Papa, can we go to the docks? Obito and I wanna go swimming". Stone asked looking up at me with his adorable big obsidian eyes. "Of course my love". Both boys smiled big as I said that. "Go ahead, I'll catch up. I need to head home and grab a few things". Madara said. "Alright, love". I leaned up to kiss him before he activated his mangekyou and kamuied away.

It took me and the boys about twenty minutes to get to the docks. I held them in my arms as I traveled by rooftop. They smiled big as they flew through the air while holding onto me tight. I was glad doing small things like this was enough to make them happy.

My kids were my whole world, there's nothing I wouldn't do for them. When we made it there I put them down and watched as they ran to the end of the pier. They were about to jump in but Madara kamuied behind them and picked them up by the backs of their shirts.

"Not until you both change first". They looked up at him and smiled. "Ok, daddy". They said in unison. He put them down as I made my way over to them and helped them change into their swim trunks along with Madara. Stone's trucks were red while Obito's were a dark blue.

They pulled away from us and jumped into the water as soon as they were done. I couldn't help but chuckle at that. "They remind me of you when we were younger". "Oh really now. I could've sworn they got their energy from you". I said teasingly. He chuckled.

For hours we sat together watching the boys splash in the water together. Madara had started teaching them since they were one and they loved it. We made sure they didn't go into any deeper part of water since they were still so young.

Thankfully they listened to us well. While I listened to their playful laughter I decided to read while Madara worked on his tan behind me. Hour after hour passed with laughter and birds chirping. I was about to ask the boys what they wanted for lunch when it happened.

"Daddy, Papa come see"! It was Stone. Madara and I both jumped into the water to see what the matter was. Their eyes were widened in fear and shoulders bent down.

"What's wrong? Are either of you hurt"? I asked looking them over. "Over there"! Obito said pointing. I turned my head to look in the direction and saw a small floatie in the water. "There's a baby on it". I immediately made my way over to the small yellow watercraft and took the tiny infant into my arms.

He appeared to be asleep at the moment but looked extremely underweight. I immediately checked for his pulse and was relieved to feel it was strong. Madara immediately made his way over to me with the boys close behind.

To say they were worried would be an understatement. "He's alive but I'll need to bring him to the hospital to see if anything's wrong with him". "Obito, Stone, go get dressed and head to your uncle's house. You're to stay there until I come for you. Understood"? Madara said, "Yes sir". They said in unison before heading towards the pier where their clothes were. Madara placed his hand on my shoulder and kamuied us both to the hospital.

I immediately rushed him over to the pediatric section once we made it there. The hospital I owned was equipped with nothing but the best equipment and medicine their had. I entered the Nicu, placed him into one of the incubators, and hooked him up to a bunch of machines as I began to run tests.

I was right about him being malnourished but that's not the only problem he was struggling with. His blood pressure was low, he was dangerously close to becoming hypothermic, and had a few broken limbs along with bruises.

It broke my heart to see him like that. All I wanted was to take him in my arms and hold him close to me until the pain went away. I'm glad he was somehow able to get some rest right now. If I were to hear him cry out in pain I'm afraid my heart would break completely.

"Don't worry little one, I'll promise I'll do whatever I have to in order for you to feel better". I whispered softly as I placed my hand on the glass.
