Hinata's eyes scanned every single enemy in her line of sight. She flicked Tsubaki from her sheathe with her thumb and she swung the blade in the direction of every enemy she could see. She quickly sheathed the blade and the white Zetsu hit by the sword's ability, exploded. She ignored the stares of awe she got from the Nin from other villages. She bowed politely, seeing as they still deserved her respect. "I have to go, I've been summoned." She said softly and she turned and took off running. She was now on her way to help Gaara's brigade, she had been informed that the previous kage had been revived. Obviously her day was not going to go well, seeing as to how everything seemed to want to go against her today.

She vanished with the veil of time, using it to appear in the area right before the kage were revived, she cursed herself mentally when she realized that she had just reversed what she had just done to help the others... She appeared before Gaara, receiving a nod from him. She looked over to see that the only kage left were the Mizukage and the Raikage. The second Mizukage caught sight of her and grinned. She knew this wasn't going to go well just by the look on his face.

"So even voluptuous women are allowed on the battlefield? So their assets do not hinder them? Or have they trained to use their assets as a weapon as well?" he asked with a dirty look in his eyes. "Well if they have been trained to use them as weapons, I want to fight her!" he said pointing at Hinata, and then he made hand movements towards her chest with a grin. "She has nice big assets." He chuckled. A deep red blush coated her cheeks when he finished speaking; a spark of annoyance went through her mind as well. And here goes the whole let me screw up your day even more, routine. Hinata's eyebrow twitched. It had to be the old dead guys, didn't it? Obviously… it was always the old dead guys….

Embarrassment flooded her features even more as even Gaara laughed at her misfortune; she didn't like the fact that she was now the center of attention because of a dead guy. Hinata gripped Tsubaki and grit her teeth, despite trying to will away the blush. Hinata flicked Tsubaki from her sheath and held the blade in front of her. Even the second Mizukage stopped flirting and taunting her once he set eyes on Tsubaki.

The blade shimmered in a taunting manner, the eyes of the dangerous being within the blade staring humoredly at the previous kage. Raikage's eyes narrowed at the blade. "So he staked his claim on you, did he?" the Raikage asked and Hinata furrowed her brow. "I d-don't understand what you mean." Hinata said, Tsubaki falling from where she held it a bit, and Raikage gave her a small glance that held slight regret.

"The blade you hold belongs to Madara Uchiha, he forged it by his own hand, the strength within the blade is one only few can wield. If you hold the blade, he has staked his claim, and he acknowledges you as a worthy opponent. And apparently even in death he seeks power." The Raikage said and to her surprise he seemed extremely wary of the blade, apparently having heard of the power it possessed, and he seemed to know more of it than she did. Naruto hit the ground nearby and the second Mizukage's hands flew into hand signs.

She hadn't exactly figured out what had happened so swiftly until she was almost thrown away from the site. She took a few steps back and watched as the battle resumed. Naruto and the sealers went after the Raikage while Hinata sheathed Tsubaki and a slow cocky smile crossed her lips. She dropped from the offensive stance she'd been in, to a more relaxed stance.

The clam was sliced into a bunch of tiny pieces before it even had the chance to move the second Mizukage elsewhere and he hit the ground, eyes wide. She patted Tsubaki's hilt and nodded in her success. Gaara and the others began fighting with the second once more to seal him, Hinata saw no way she would be of any more help there so she went off in search of the shoreline. Her father and the others were fighting here. Hinata landed amidst the battleground, her father not even four feet behind her. He nodded in recognition as to why she had arrived. As the Zetsu poured in from the sea, Hinata saw every reanimated Nin there was out there. The one who caught her attention was Hizashi though. When he hit land she walked over to him.

He dropped into the all too familiar Hyuuga stance. She, however, did the opposite, she flicked Tsubaki from her sheathe. "Hinata… my how you have grown..." Hizashi said and Hinata smiled. "Not just me, Neji too." She said and Hizashi furrowed his brow. "Your eyes…" he murmured and she nodded. "The veil of time chose me, just as it had chosen you." She said and he nodded as he lunged forwards. "I see… be careful of to whom you tell. Or else you will end up like me. But there is a way to live, even after your real body dies, but I cannot tell you yet, you will have to find me first." He said and she frowned as she dodged his not so gentle fists.

She understood what he meant by she had to find him first; she figured that it had something to do with what Tsunade had told her. She swiped at him four times with Tsubaki and then she went to sheath her blade. "Flaunting a blade will do nothing in a fight Hinata." He said and she released the blade. The hilt hit the sheath and he looked down at himself as he exploded into tiny paper-like fragments. The sealing team showed up and attempted to seal him but the wind blew the fragments away and he appeared over by her father.

Hinata turned to her father and he shook his head, he was able to handle it himself. Well, it wasn't the fact he could handle it, it was more so the fact that there was an unsettled conflict between the brothers and her father wanted to make amends. The fighting settled down there and she decided to take her leave, to find another battleground that needed her more. Everyone was now supposed to be making their way to Naruto to help him fight the masked man claiming to be Madara. Hinata knew he wasn't Madara. His chakra didn't match the one that pulsed within the blade. Her eyes pulsed and she appeared a little while away from Gaara's battlefield. She hadn't thought much of what was going on before something collided with her. She cracked one eye open to see that the man who'd hit her was dead.

She softly shoved the dead man off of her and looked into the heavy cloud of dust ahead of her. She hadn't really noticed the dust cloud when she had arrived, so she grit her teeth and scolded herself for neglecting to watch her surroundings. She activated Byakugan and all she could see was a barely there chakra source moving swiftly. She took a deep breath and made her decision as to what she had to do to keep as many shinobi alive as possible.

She couldn't see anything else that was remotely useful, so she pulled a dumb move and ran straight in; her hand tightly gripping Tsubaki's hilt. She could see the dust beginning to clear ahead of her so she burst through and fear froze her in place. The man before her eyes slowly turned to look at her with his deep red eyes, one single brow raised. He didn't watch her long, because ninja rushed at him from every side. Hinata's heart raced as he wiped out each and every one of them faster than she could handle four… Hinata gripped Tsubaki tightly, ignoring the screaming in her mind, her racing heart, and the goose bumps crawling over her skin. She grit her teeth and she rushed at him before she could change her mind.

His eyes were all over the place as he scanned his surroundings. He saw her coming and he danced around her, avoiding Tsubaki. "I see you wish to dance as well." He said then smirked at her. "Little woman." He added and she lunged towards him. "I'm n-not that little." Hinata said and swiped Tsubaki at him, then sheathed the blade. He held his hands out in front of him and twisted them, sending the invisible blade down. Chills ran down her spine and she was at a loss for words as her eyes widened in realization of the truth. "So you are the one who made this blade…" Hinata whispered. He seemed surprised, if only slightly, that she had attacked him at all. Hinata wasn't done though. She sheathed Tsubaki and lunged. He dodged her bare hands that attempted to strike every open area she could find.

Her eyes were moving just as fast as his were, reading every movement the other made, trying to avoid letting any spots be left open. He jumped backwards as her left hand made a sudden swipe upwards towards his jaw. Her breathing was heavy and he took this chance to get close. His fist connected with her, but not where he thought he would hit. Her arms were crossed over her chest and face, protecting her from his fist. He smirked as he watched her arms fall loose a bit and he grabbed her by the throat before she could make a move to jump away from him. She winced as he gently squeezed her throat, one eye closed in pain and he smirked and leaned close to her.

"Are you scared?" he asked, his voice a husky whisper. She could feel his breath on her skin, as cold as ice; just like the hand wrapped around her throat. His eyes scanned her face when he pulled away from her ear. Her eyes showed no fear, just confusion. Her heart was racing, but she wasn't scared, she guessed that it was more adrenaline and a bit of excitement than anything else. His eyes held the same interested look as hers did. "Let me ask you a question, you brave little woman, do you know who I am?" he asked as he set her down, but his hand never left her throat.

Her feet touched the ground softly and a sense of relief washed over her being. He looked away from her to Naruto and the rest of the ninja who still lived. "I have you know, I will kill her if you try to interfere." He said and Naruto and Gaara grit their teeth. They worried for their friend and Madara knew it, but Madara seemed more interested in the fact Hinata was much calmer than one in her position should be. Madara then smirked as he thought over what he'd said moments before. "It isn't as if I hadn't made a threat like that before." He chuckled and Naruto thought of what his mother had told him.

"Hinata, you fool!" Naruto yelled and Hinata looked over at him and smiled. "Naruto-kun… I have a better chance at surviving this Madara, than I do fighting the wannabe Madara. He doesn't scare me… I have no idea why, but he just doesn't strike fear within me." She said without a single stutter and the smirk that crossed Madara's lips clearly showed his humor. Naruto clenched his fist and glared at Madara. "Don't you hurt her!" he snapped and Madara chuckled. "Why should I listen to you? Oh… she isn't yours is she? She is obviously a better prize than the women from my time. They were all weak and scared little creatures. This one has spunk, she is quiet, but she has spunk, I like that." He said, his voice taunting as he used his other hand to turn her face towards him.

He looked her over then looked back at Naruto. "All the women were weak, scared, pathetic housewives… this girl is obviously different." He said with an interested tone. Hinata laughed despite her situation. "It seems I was right in thinking that the Uchiha seem to have an odd interest in me…" she said softly and he smirked. She knew that trying to get him to talk would distract him long enough for the others to form some sort of plan, she wasn't stupid, and she hoped they realized what she was doing.

"The Uchiha have a good eye when it comes to strength… and exquisite things." He said and Hinata smiled slightly, she was still baffled as to why the Uchiha seemed to have such a deep interest in her, but just as he could baffle her she could confuse him beyond belief by showing what she knows of him without fear. "I can tell Tsubaki was crafted by your hand and your hand alone. Your family would be proud to know that a blade as marvelous as this one was crafted in their memory; I think Izuna would be the one who would be the most proud. She is a beautiful blade, despite the fright she gave me the other night, or more rather, you gave me." Hinata said and Madara's grip on her throat faltered his eyes swam with confusion. The five kage appeared just as Madara's hand left her throat.

His scrutinizing gaze never fell from her, he was trying to figure out who she was and how exactly she knew so much about him personally. He reminded her of someone he had known, but the impossibilities outweighed the possibilities. There was a height difference, a slight personality difference, and the way she looked was completely off. From what he could see, there was a monumental difference between her and the other woman.

She stood there, unmoving and not scared in the slightest. She didn't move because she was standing her ground and letting Madara know she was doing so. His eyes never left hers, nor did hers stray from his gaze. He was nearly a foot taller than she was, but he barely had to look down at her. He watched her posture, seeing if there were any falters in her façade of strength she had suddenly decided to show. Tsunade and the kage watched the exchange between the two, curious as to what was going to happen.

The moment Ohnoki saw her, truly saw her, his eyes went wide. He hadn't really been paying much attention to the girl before then, but seeing her standing before Madara, him not even making an attempt to kill her, made him realize something about her. His head hurt from the moon sized meteors, but he could still tell who she was, or who he thoughts he was. "You!" he said and she looked at him in confusion. "How can you be here?!" he asked, confusing Hinata. "I'm from konoha… I have been fighting this war from the start; I helped you fight the second not too long ago... I have no idea what you mean…" Hinata said and Madara chuckled. "I highly doubt that this woman is the one who attempted to save me so long ago. You must be delusional, little fence sitter." He said to Ohnoki, who glared at him.

"Then you must have thought it over if you figured out exactly what I had been talking about so fast. You must have seen it in her as well." Ohnoki argued and Madara chuckled. "There is a monumental difference in strength between the two, if you hadn't noticed. If it were truly her… let's just say this trivial little escapade I have been drug into, would be over just as swiftly as when I wiped out your group of men back there. These trivial matters amuse me not, but fighting her…" he droned off with a smirk.

Ohnoki glared at the raven haired male. "Then how do you explain the likeness between the two? How do you explain the fact she wields Tsubaki?" Ohnoki ground out and Hinata watched the reactions of the two. Madara glanced at her and she watched as a slow smirk crossed his lips. "Old fool, she is of the same bloodline…" he scoffed and Hinata shifted from one foot to the other. Her eyes darted over to Tsunade's who's eyes were locked on her.

"Hinata! You need to go." Tsunade called to her. Hinata nodded, the look in Tsunade's eyes said all she needed to know; Tsunade didn't mean go as in leave this battlefield. The 'go' she was ordering Hinata to do was much, much different. Tsunade was telling Hinata to go change this. Hinata pulled the blade from her back and stabbed it into the ground. "I'm afraid it is time for me to go, Madara." Hinata said and he looked at her in confusion.

She placed her fingertips on the hilt of the blade and closed her eyes. She swiped the blade up faster than he could see and she cut off a part of his hair. She grabbed it quickly and held it within her flat palms in front of her. Her eyes pulsed and created a pulse of chakra that made her hair fly back. The veil of time glowed around her and the light within her hands became blinding, then she vanished, with a whisper that confused Madara to no end. "I will fix this." Madara turned to the kage and frowned. "What did you do to her?" he asked calmly. "I sent her to turn the odds of this war to our favor." Tsunade said and the other three kage who didn't know of Hinata's power looked at her.

"So the girl was that strong…" Madara muttered with a smirk as he eyed Tsubaki. "Smart too." He added, calmly. The sword stood proudly in the sand. He touched the blade and it shattered, a small white orb left behind. He held a hand out to the orb and it shot to him. The cracks along his face and body mended. He appeared to look human once more, instead of a cracked clay pot; his armor had even been repaired. "I had some things I had wished to ask the girl… mainly how she was so strong, for one from Konoha." He said, disgusted with the word.

"She isn't really all that strong…" Tsunade said and Madara smirked. "Strength has nothing to do with that incredible young woman. She has more heart, than she does chakra. And her heart is what counts. Her heart makes her stronger. Her heart is what knits the bonds of our village." Tsunade said with a smirk. "Heart has nothing to do with that girl, you insolent woman. I felt the power radiate off of her when she vanished. She is stronger than you give her credit for." He chuckled.

"That was her eyes; her eyes have that much power. But that is not her strength. Her strength is similar to that of Naruto's; he has the ability to make the most dangerous, hateful people, his friends. Take Gaara for example, he slaughtered anyone who got in his way for whatever reason because he held the one tails. He did it to satiate the beast, but he met Naruto and that all changed. You have no idea what type of power Hinata holds Madara, so it would be wise not to misjudge the rest of us either." Tsunade said and he chuckled. "Misjudge? You must be mistaken; my power is only suitable to fight five kage at once. Your army was pathetic; one kage against me is pathetic. My power is only suitable to fight the five of you." Madara said and lunged.

-:-:-:-

Hinata looked around her; there were lots of trees, but no villages that she could see. She saw the Uchiha compound, or so she thought… it looked more like a military facility… with fences you could only see over from the top of a hill like this one, but she also saw another compound it looked the same way, it just had a different marking signifying its clan name. There was a setup of merchants not too far, so she decided to head there first. She knew she would look way out of place. She needed to be careful and watch for anyone, this was a warring period after all and not a single village had been formed yet, so it was clan against clan.

What she did now was key, in a warring state, if you couldn't protect yourself, you were dead. She knew if she didn't find allies, she would only end up being killed. She had to find someone, but Madara was definitely not an option. She wasn't ready to face him. Her fear from when she had seen the older, stronger version of him scared her. She had managed to keep her fear in check for that long, only so Naruto and the others didn't do anything rash. Now she was alone, and had to find an ally in a land she knew little of, and she knew it was either fight to survive to save the future, or die here and fail the future.

Hinata had no idea as to what she was going to do yet. She didn't know where anyone was that could possibly help her in the slightest. She frowned and clutched her arms closer around herself as she walked. It was beginning to get chilly out and she didn't have her usual jacket, which would have been a great help; she noticed with a small pout of her lips. She rubbed her arms to try and heat herself up a bit, but it wasn't helping all that much.

She sighed as she walked through the woods, all she could see was trees everywhere around her and it bothered her. It didn't bother her in the fact that trees were all she saw, it more so bothered her that there were no signs of life in the slightest at all. Not a sound echoed throughout the darkness of the woods, but she felt a pair of eyes on her. She scanned the area around her but she saw nothing, not one tiny little sign of life. She bit her lip and activated her Byakugan.

A single chakra signature was all she saw and she reached for her kunai pouch but the signature jumped and landed behind a tree not too far away. "If you put your weapon down I will come out…" the voice called out and Hinata slid her kunai back into her pouch. "I'm not a shinobi… I'm a humble servant, so please don't hurt me." the girl called out and Hinata smiled. "I won't hurt you unless you mean me any harm." Hinata said and the younger girl came out from behind the tree.

"I work for the Uzumaki, and they have whatever you would need, so please don't hurt me." the younger girl begged as she stepped out in front of Hinata. "I said I won't hurt you… all I ask is a bit of assistance…" Hinata said and the girl took a few steps backwards. "I… I can't help you." She started and turned to run away. "Wait, you don't even know what I need help with… I just need to find the merchant village from here or somewhere to rest, please…" Hinata called out softly and the younger girl slowed down.

"U-um… there is a settlement of merchants down that way…. I can't help you pay for anything, but I can show you to it." she said and Hinata smiled at her. "Really? Thank you." She said and bowed politely to the younger girl. The younger girl blushed and nodded. "This way." She called out and Hinata jogged over to catch up with the short legged girl. The younger girl was fast for having such short legs. "So how did you end up being a servant girl for the… Uzumaki, you said?" Hinata asked and the girl fumbled with her words. "You're not really a servant are you? You're a daughter of one of their family members, aren't you?" Hinata asked in a hushed whisper and the girl nodded.

"I see, so you have to say you're a servant so anyone aiming to hurt the Uzumaki won't bother with you, huh?" Hinata asked in the same hushed whisper. "You won't tell anyone will you?" she asked and Hinata shook her head. "Of course not, I'm not out to hurt anyone, I'm just trying to save someone…" Hinata said with a small frown and the girl looked up at her with a smile. "I would love to be a strong Kunoichi like you one day… your chakra signature is even stronger than Mito-chan's, its pretty impressive." The younger girl said and Hinata blushed lightly.

"Um, thank you…" Hinata said softly, unsure as to how to answer the girl politely in any other way. Hinata watched the little girl run ahead of her with her cute little hairstyle. The little girl was adorable, she almost looked like Kushina Uzumaki, whom of which Hinata had found to be exceedingly lovely when Naruto had shown her a picture. The little girl parted the bushes by the edge of the forest and waved her over. "Here it is! You might want to camp out here until tomorrow, I doubt anyone will be willing to take on any customers this late. You should head down there early, seeing as you will be there a while looking at all the amazing things they have." The little girl said softly as to not attract any unwanted attention and Hinata nodded.

"Thank you um…" Hinata began and the little girl smiled. "Amayo Uzumaki, as you already know my clan name." she said and Hinata smiled. "My name is Hinata, Hinata Hyuuga." She greeted and the little girl's eyes widened. "Thank you Amayo." Hinata said and hopped up into a fairly large tree nearby. "See you around Hinata." Amayo said and vanished into the darkness of the woods.

-:-:-:-

Amayo's stature grew and she dropped the rest of the jutsu as she unpinned her long flowing red hair from the annoying side part it had been in. "Welcome to our time, lady Hyuuga. It's been a long time since a jumper has graced our presence." Amayo's voice droned off into the night as she made her way back to the Uzumaki compound. The guards opened the front gates and allowed her entrance into her home. Red hair bolted past her then stopped and turned around to face her.

"Mother." The younger red haired teen greeted with a smile as she adjusted her buns. "Mito. How are you tonight?" Amayo asked and Mito smiled brightly. "I was with Hashirama again, mother, he is trying his best to reason with his father; but his father seems unwilling to end the futile turf war." Mito sighed. Amayo smiled and Mito glanced at her mother with curious eyes. "What is it mother?" Mito asked and Amayo's eyes crinkled in her joy.

"Come, follow me to your grandparents, I have wonderful news." Her mother said and picked up her pace as she hurried towards her mother and father's quarters. "Anaya, Tai, your daughter and grand daughter are here to see you." The guard said with a knock and a muffled, come in was heard. "Amayo, my dear, what have you learned?" Anaya asked and Amayo smiled brightly. "Hinata." Was all she said and they all stared at her in silence. "That is her name. Hinata Hyuuga." Amayo clarified and the shock that crossed her elderly parents faces was the confirmation she needed.

"The jumper has returned? The man's niece, I'm guessing?" Anaya asked excitedly and Amayo shrugged lightly. "I'm not sure but she looks similar to him. We should tell him and Mabui immediately." Amayo said and the two elderly parents shook their heads. "Not tonight, dear. They are trying to sleep you see… which you and Mito-chan should be doing as well." Tai sighed and his daughter's face flushed red in embarrassment. "Oh… uh… in the morning then?" she asked awkwardly and her mother nodded.

"Goodnight, mother, father." Amayo pouted and walked out of their quarters with Mito in tow. "So, mother, what does this jumper have to do with us?" she asked and Amayo smiled. "She is very important. She can jump through the time space doohickey and fix things. Which, simply meaning that Butsuma will have no choice but to submit to a truce!" Amayo said excitedly and held her daughters hands gently. Mito's eyes widened a bit, but she still couldn't keep a serious face due to the fact her mother had actually just used the word doohickey.

Mito smiled at her mother but giggled with a hand in front of her mouth. "This is very good news isn't it mother, I should tell Hashirama then!" Mito said and her mother's face darkened. "No! you cannot utter a word of her existence anywhere near that clan! Her clan was wiped out by Butsuma's father in the same type of futile turf war that he is fighting with the Uchiha, except when he fought the Hyuuga, he was searching for the jumper to steal her eyes… if you let them find her… they will kill her and none of us will ever be free from Butsuma and his thirst for blood!" Amayo snapped and Mito blinked and nodded profusely.

"I won't tell anyone, I promise mother."

-:-:-:-

"You have to move faster little brother, or else you will fail." The taller dark haired male taunted lightly to the slightly shorter male. Their dark eyes clashed and the older brother smirked, as he sent his younger brother sprawling towards the ground. He offered a hand for his younger brother, who took it gratefully. The younger brother froze for a moment and the older brother glanced in the direction his younger brother was staring. There was a bright flickering light at the top of a hill not too far away.

He narrowed his eyes and started off towards the hill. "Madara… are you sure we should go? It could be a trap. I'm really no sure if we should go…" The younger brother said and Madara sighed. He turned and smiled slightly at his brother. "If they are foolish enough to attempt to harm you, they will have to deal with me. And you know how I get when it comes to you, Izuna." Madara said with a smirk and Izuna shook his head, then smiled over at his older brother. There was no one foolish enough to mess with Izuna when Madara was around.

"Well let's get going then." Izuna said after a moment, a grin on his face. What started out as a run to see what was going on; had then turned into a competitive race to see who could figure it out first. Izuna started to get to the point of being able to pass his brother, who then, with a smirk on his face; shoved his brother off to the side causing him to stumble. Izuna glared at Madara, who had taken the lead once more. He could hear Madara's laughter ahead of him and grinned. He shot up into the trees and hopped along the branches.

Izuna spotted his brother below and dive bombed him, knocking his older brother to the ground. Madara hit the ground with a pained grunt. Izuna laughed as he shot off of Madara's back. Before Izuna could get too far away Madara grabbed his ankle and Izuna hit the ground as well. "You realize it does hurt when someone of our size lands on someone right?" Madara asked with a chuckle and a twitch of the brow as both of them scrambled to get back to their feet. Madara was up and running first, Izuna on his heels.

Madara shot from the tree line first and Izuna landed next to him. There was nothing they could see from where they were, so they went to the hilltop and looked around. "Eh… Madara, look." Izuna said and pointed off the right side of the hill. Madara looked at Izuna, who had a slight blush on his face, then down the side of the hill where there was a secluded area with a small lake. Madara saw the woman bathing in the lake and sighed, while rubbing his brow. "Izuna, you pervert…" he chuckled and Izuna grinned at him.

Madara felt a pulse of power and his humor ended. He swiped a kunai from his holster and looked back towards the woman, who was now fully dressed and appeared to be looking right at them. Izuna seemed awestruck at how fast the woman was. Izuna stood straight up and patted Madara's arm. "You know how women are, Madara… they get scared easily. I think we surprised her." Izuna said and Madara lowered the kunai a bit, but he didn't look away from the woman. "She can use Nin jutsu, Izuna." Madara said and Izuna nodded. "Women can too; it is just rare for one to openly use it. They get killed for it, because people think power is wasted on women." Izuna sighed, glancing back at the woman.

This time he froze, his jaw slackened. Madara looked from his brother to the woman down the hill. Glowing white eyes that were tinged purple shined brightly at them. Madara himself was at a loss of words. His lungs felt as if the air were slowly being pulled from them. Madara felt the pull of her eyes, but couldn't find it in himself to move. "H-her eyes…" Izuna managed to mutter, his own eyes wide with confusion and surprise. "They tug at your soul…" Izuna said and Madara couldn't find a better way to word it himself.

The woman gathered her few things and vanished into the darkness. Once she was gone, her hold on them was relinquished. Madara felt as if the air had been stolen from his lungs. He looked over at Izuna who, with shaky breaths, looked back at Madara. "Should we ask dad about this?" Izuna asked and Madara thought for a moment. "Yes… he may know something of people with eyes like that…" Madara said after a few minutes. Izuna turned and began walking down the hill. Madara started to follow but turned and glanced back towards where the woman had vanished.

He found the fact she had managed to tie them down with a simple glance interesting. Never had anyone been able to halt the brother's movement so easily. He bit his lip absentmindedly while he thought, she could turn out to be a problem if she continued to be a distraction…

He turned around only to get a foot to the face, and Izuna laughing. His brow twitched as Izuna laughed. "I swear… I did not mean for you to turn around." Izuna said between laughs. "Ha… Ha…" Madara said bitterly and wiped the blood from his nose. Izuna began laughing nervously before he took off in a run. Madara smirked and pushed off into a run as well. He and Izuna ran straight into the gates of the Uchiha compound, receiving nods as they shot past. Everyone within the compound knew how they were, so it didn't faze any of them to see them in one of their childish competitive races.

"Madara, Izuna. Welcome back you two." Aurora Uchiha greeted them. Madara walked over to her and bowed politely, Tajima Uchiha sat beside her with a small barely there smile on his lips. "You two trained well?" he asked. "Yes father." Madara and Izuna said together. Aurora held her arms out to her sons and they hugged her. "You two are getting so strong." She said with a smile. Tajima nodded as the two teens sat at the table across from him. "You haven't been out chatting with the Senju boy have you, Madara?" Tajima asked and Madara shook his head. He hadn't gone to see Hashirama in a friendly way since the incident with their fathers and younger brothers years back.

Izuna grinned and shook his head. "Nah, we haven't even picked a fight with him today; instead we have been out training. Today we saw a woman too." Izuna said as the plates were set in front of them. Tajima raised a brow as their mother giggled lightly. "A woman? What interest would you two have in a woman?" Tajima asked, the question held a joking tone, but Tajima was genuinely curious. Before Izuna could go into a very detailed explanation of what she looked like curves and all, Madara gave him a look that silenced him.

Aurora glanced between her sons and sighed as she saw the look in Izuna's eyes. "I can tell why he had an interest in her…" she laughed lightly and Tajima chuckled. "So, she was just a pretty face." Tajima concluded but Madara shook his head. "There was more to her than a pretty face." Madara said. "And huge-" Izuna started but Aurora glared at her son. "Not appropriate dinner conversation." She hissed and Izuna grinned. "So what were you saying, Madara?" Tajima asked. "Her eyes were white and they glowed like the moon… you can ask Izuna… they were… they were different and held a certain power…" Madara said and Izuna nodded.

"It was creepy… all we did was look into her eyes and we… we couldn't breathe… it was as if she were choking us with a glance." Izuna said and Tajima's eyes went wide. 'Pale moonlight eyes?!' he thought and he looked at Aurora who was staring at her sons in shock. "You saw a Hyuuga?" Aurora managed to speak first. Madara shrugged and Izuna began picking at his food. "What is so special about a Hyuuga? I've never heard of them…" Izuna said and Madara nodded. "That's because the Hyuuga clan died out. There may be one or two left, but no one has seen them in over twenty years…" Tajima said and Madara furrowed his brow.

"Then how could she be here?" he asked. Aurora looked to her husband and he shook his head, they were not to reveal the existence of the jumpers… that was how the clan died out in the first place. "I do not know… But I can tell you of their strength." Tajima said and Madara was all ears. Izuna furrowed his brow. "So even the women of the clan were strong?" he asked and Aurora nodded. "Some say the women of the clan are actually the strongest of the entire clan." Aurora said and Madara sent a smirk at Izuna, who glared at his brother. "I told you she was strong." Madara said and Izuna rolled his eyes. Aurora sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose while Tajima chuckled at his son's competitiveness to be best at everything.

"I'll have you know… the Hyuuga were much stronger than you two take them for. The only ones rivalling their strength were the Uchiha and the Senju. Butsuma's father slaughtered them in the night while searching for the clan leader's daughter. If I were you two, I would steer clear of her until her motives are affirmed. And by steer clear, I mean if you are going to follow her stay at least fifty to a hundred yards away so she can't see you in the slightest." Their father said and Izuna choked and pounded his chest trying to get air.

"Then how are we supposed to see her!?" Izuna managed. Tajima and Aurora smirked at their sons now. "That's actually the point… you're not supposed to see them, because if you see her… she can kill you." Tajima said and Izuna dropped his chopsticks. "You two are serious…" Madara said with a confused furrow of his brows. "Completely. I'm guessing you need a lesson in detail of the actual fighting style the Hyuuga's have." Aurora said with a smile and they nodded.

"Well their 'moonlight eyes', as you called them… have a special ability where they can see farther than normal. They can usually see you before you even sense a trace of their chakra. They fight by pushing chakra from every pore in their body, meaning they have expert control of their chakra from a very young age." Aurora said as she took a bite of her food. "Basically saying that if you grab her, she can close off your tenketsu and you won't be able to use jutsu." Tajima said and the brothers blinked.

"Whoa… that's kinda cool." Izuna said and Madara nodded. "So… if I come home with the ability to use jutsu gone, you would know that she had attacked me?" Madara said with a raised brow and Tajima snorted. "Madara, I know you. That would not be the case in the slightest. You would have most likely advanced on her and she would have only defended herself. We all know that when you leave, you go searching for some sort of trouble. Just someone in general to fight." Tajima said and a grin plastered itself to Madara's lips.

"But, as I said, if she can see you. It's over for you." Tajima said and Aurora nodded. "But this is me we are talking about. I will win." He chuckled and his parents sighed and shook their heads at him. He had no idea what he was running head first into…
