Chapter 5: Suffering vs. Hatred
Recap: Team Miyagi was assigned a B-class mission, where they were to assist in the delivery of a hidden technique scroll from the Land of Valley's Kamisori clan to Tanigakure within the Land of Valleys. After the team had met up with the shinobi they were to assist, they soon encountered a team of four shinobi, who were assigned to steal the scroll from the shinobi and take it to an unknown client who tasked them with this mission. A fight broke out between the shinobi, where one of the bandit shinobi was taken out by shinobi from the Kamisori clan, Tsubaki was captured by the remaining shinobi, the shinobi from the Kamisori clan injured and the scroll stolen. Miyagi sent Kagami and Shisui to go after the two shinobi who took Tsubaki while Miyagi went after the shinobi who took the scroll. Soon into battle between Kagami and Shisui vs. the two twin shinobi, Kagami and Tsubaki were nearing execution when the Kyuubi chakra began leaking out of Shisui due to a fit of fear for his friends. It was also at this same moment in time, back in Konoha Love intercepted and took out three unknown assassins, who attempted to assassinate Tobirama and gave two of the bodies to Tobirama to conduct research which is still unknown to all with the exception of Love (and me of coarse so HA!)
In the forest where the battle between the two twins, A and B and the three genin take place, Shisui's massive chakra still leaves the two shinobi in shock. Kagami looks in horror as well at his teammate. He looks at Shisui with his Sharingan and sees the powerful and malevolent essence surrounding him...Shisui gets down on all fours and turns his body and faces the two shinobi.
A “Brother this isn't any ordinary kid we have to be careful”
B “I don't care what he is, I'll still kill hi~”
Suddenly, Shisui demonstrates great speed by getting up close to B and smashes him into the ground before he can even finish his sentence. Shisui remains on top of the shinobi and prepares to run his hand through the shinobi. A blocks Shisui's strike with his blade and he uses his Earth Spear technique to harden his body, preparing for an attack from the shinobi. Shisui swings his arm, hitting A and he goes flying backwards. The power Shisui demonstrated was enough to break his armor and knock the wind out of the shinobi. A looks up and sees Shisui heading at him with top speed and he manage to get out of the way. Shisui goes through a tree sending it crashing down and creates a crater.
A “Just what is this kid”
Multiple shuriken hit Shisui and he lets out a yell. A looks and sees his brother panting and holding himself up on his blade. Shisui rushes to him and A tries to get to his brother but he's too late. Shisui pins down the shinobi and drives his hand through the shinobi's chest killing him and he pounds the face in. A backs away looking in fear at Shisui. Shisui turns his attention to A and he lets out another yell and A simply yells in terror...Against Taiki Miyagi stands tall over the shinobi who has multiple slash wounds on his body, and is bleeding rapidly
Miyagi “*Good, he couldn't keep up with my speed in level 1. That saved me some chakra...I have to get to others*”
Taiki “(coughs up blood)...I never knew...that the Kotetsu were so powerful”
Taiki drops and Miyagi gets the scroll and puts it in his pouch. He heads towards his students to go and stop Shisui's rampage. At the site Shisui now stands over A, who is now in the same exact shape as his brother, dead and mangled and he looks at Kagami. Tsubaki begins to come too but to a horrible revelation.
Tsubaki “*where am I...it's so dark here...am I dead?*”
Tsubaki still remains in the deep recesses of her mind and she's in a dark place.
Tsubaki “*This presences...a light...Maybe I'm not dead*”
Tsubaki heads towards the light but the moment she enters she sees a huge red chakra in the shape of a monster rush towards her face at a great speed letting out a screeching roar. At that moment Tsubaki's shocked awake and she sees Shisui walking over to her. Tsubaki's eyes widen as she looks at her teammate and she's filled with devastating fear, the likes of which she's never felt before.
Tsubaki “Get away from me you monster!! Help!!”
At that moment wires wrap around Shisui and restrict him. Shisui yells and turns his head to see Kagami holding the ends of the wire, and he makes quick seals.
Kagami “Katon: Ryuka no Jutsu (Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique)
Kagami spits a large stream of fire on the wires and as they combine the flames get bigger and then the eventually impact Shisui with the greatest force. Shisui yells as his body sets on fire. Tsubaki gets up and runs to Kagami. As Shisui drops to his hands and knees, Kagami releases the jutsu leaving Shisui's body to burn.
Tsubaki “What is that?”
Kagami “That's Shisui”
Tsubaki “He's...he's a monster”
All of a sudden Shisui gets up and begins walking towards his teammates. The burns begin to heal due to the Kyuubi inside of Shisui. Kagami puts himself in front of Tsubaki and protects her, but he used the last of his chakra to go full blast on Shisui.
Shisui “Kagami...Tsubaki”
At that moment Miyagi appears and places himself in front of his two students with his kunai at the ready. He whips out a long scroll and bites his finger. He writes a quick seal in the middle and places his hand in the center of the scroll on the ground, and the scroll begins to fill with seals. Long chakra ropes extend out of the scroll and wrap around Shisui constricting him.
Shisui “Why?!”
Kagami “Sensei what is that?”
Miyagi “Don't worry I'll protect yo~”
Shisui “Why are you guys...attacking me”
Miyagi's eyes widen as he hears those mumbled words from Shisui and looks into his eyes. Shisui's eyes are conscious and in control. He shows no primal demonic instinct or intent to kill.
Miyagi “*He's still in control...he's still conscious...*”
Shisui's chakra begins to descend however Miyagi releases the jutsu and Shisui falls to the ground.
Tsubaki “Sensei...is that Shisui?...what is~”
Miyagi “We'll speak nothing of this understood. This never happened and you will forget everything about this do you two understand”
Both Kagami and Tsubaki nod reluctantly and Miyagi heads up to Shisui and picks him up. He sees the two shinobi dead on the ground and leaves them there...
Miyagi “*Shisui...I'm so sorry...Tsubaki was terrified of him...Kagami tried to kill him...they saw the monster inside him and they couldn't see that he was still himself...nor did I...Shisui, please forgive your sensei*”
Miyagi puts Shisui on his back and carries him as the four shinobi head back to their wounded. Three shinobi appear besides him, with one of them healing him. As they arrive he's just about finished and the medic goes over to Kagami and then Tsubaki and begins healing him. The severity of the burns on Shisui have died down due to the Kyuubi inside of him healing him slowly. The medic gives first aid to the shinobi until they reach Tanigakure. The scroll is delivered and the mission is a success. The medics in Tani properly patch up Kagami's wound and bandages up Shisui from the neck down. The four shinobi head back to their village after and by the time of their return it is morning. Tsubaki and Kagami head home and Shisui is placed in the hands of the hospital for further examination and Miyagi heads in to give his report on the mission.
Tobirama “So he had control of the Kyuubi's chakra”
Miyagi “I didn't understand it myself. He was completely aware of what he was doing...he wasn't going to hurt the others, just join them”
Mito “A chakra leak like the one you're describing isn't uncommon upon Jinchuuriki. Every sealer of a Jinchuuriki allows a small whole in the seal in order for Jinchuuriki to learn how to harness at least a small amount of the Bijuu's chakra. The fact is no seal can completely be closed, not even the Four Symbols Seal, if it could then there would be no worry about the Bijuu taking control of the host, however there wouldn't be any access to the Bijuu's chakra either, unless the seal is unlocked with the key”
Miyagi “So he only went into a partial state, nothing far enough to loose control and loose his sense of rationing?”
Tobirama “Yes but it is crucial that he learns to harness at least that much of the Kyuubi's chakra now while he's young so in later times...he'll be able to learn to control more and reduce the chances of loosing control, the more chakra that leaks out.”
Miyagi “I think I would be able to teach him at least that much. He's a physical fighter type. He's fast, strong, has high stamina and is capable of surpassing his physical limits for difficult jutsu without harming himself too much. I'm decent in fuinjutsu so I can restrict his chakra for the most part, although Mito-sama I may need some more training”
Mito “Very well. I'll assist you...where's Shisui I need to check his seal”
Miyagi “He's in the hospital, the burns from Kagami's jutsu wasn't strong enough where the fox couldn't handle it but he still need some res~”
Mito “What do you mean Kagami's jutsu?!”
Miyagi “...Tsubaki and Kagami...you have to understand they were afraid and they couldn't tell whether or not~”
Mito “You mean to tell me that they attacked him?! They're own teammate!!”
Tobirama “Mito-chan calm down~”
Mito “No I won't calm down this is exactly why I didn't want him to be the next Jinchuuriki~”
Tobirama “Mito!”
Mito “And what about you Miyagi? How did you react?”
Miyagi turns his head in shame implying that he felt the same as his other two students, although he feels bad that he looked upon his student with such intensity.
Mito “(clinches her fist), Shisui-kun...”
Mito runs out of the room and heads towards the hospital.
Tobirama “Miyagi it's alright, what happened was unexpected and~”
Miyagi “I was prepared to kill him to protect the others...I was prepared to kill one of my students to protect the others, without hesitation...That's not what a sensei is supposed to do. I'm supposed to protect all of my students and take care of them equally...He was aware...of everything even that fact. No matter what he's not going to forget what we did to him”
Miyagi walks out of the room as well and Tobirama sighs. At the hospital Mito makes a huge fuss about seeing Shisui.
Nurse “I'm sorry Mito-sama but he's still in restriction you can't see him right now”
Mito “Let me through I need to strengthen his seal”
Nurse “We have him under the best care, he'll be fine until you see him”
Mito “This is very important!”
Head Medic “Let her in”
Nurse “But sir he's still in bad shap~”
Head Medic “Go on ahead Mito-sama”
Mito “Thank you”
Mito heads into down the hall towards Shisui's room
Nurse “Sir he needs to rest”
Head Medic “He's okay to have this one visitor, he needs somebody especially at this point in time”
Mito enters Shisui's room at the end of the hall in the recovery unit. He's asleep and bandaged up from the neck down. There is a burn scar on right side of his chin which goes down to the top of his right pectoral muscle from Kagami's jutsu (only the part not bandaged up is visible however). Mito walks to the edge of his bed and strokes his hair while looking at him with sympathy and care.
Mito “I'm sorry Shisui”
**Flashback**
Mito “Hina-senpai!! I did it, I finished my fuinjutsu training with sensei. It's all thanks to you!”
Hina “That's wonderful Mito-chan, don't give me all the credit though, you are really skilled, and I know you'll be a wonderful kunoichi”
A young Mito looks upon her senpai with a cheerful admiration for her. The two begin walking through the beautiful park of Uzushiogakure, with Hina holding Mito's hand affectionately. Both smile at one another until they come begin to pass other citizens within the village. Hina looks around and sees the faces and expressions of each person as they pass by the two of them. Mito sees their actions of tension, parents holding their children closer, to them, shinobi with looks of hostility and aggression. At that moment Mito feels Hina's hand squeeze her's tighter and she looks up at Hina and sees her cheerful fall completely into pain and depression.
Mito “Hina-senpai, what's wrong with you, you look like your stomach's in a knot”
Hina “I love you a lot Mito-chan...do you love me?”
Mito “(smile innocently) of coarse I do Hina-senpai, you're like my big sister...That's what I'm going to call from now on Hina-Nee-sama”
Hina “(smiles slightly while a tear falls down her face) Thank you Mito-chan”
Mito was still a young child at the time and didn't understand the reason for the hate Hina felt from all the villagers.
*6 Years +*
Several shinobi fight Hina within Uzushio. Hina has activated four of the 9 tails of the Kyuubi and she goes on a rampage within the village. The village has been evacuated into the safe houses and all shinobi, within Uzushio (chuunin and above) have been dispatched to fend off the rouge Jinchuuriki. Among the many shinobi the Mito is there as well assisting them. The shinobi attempt to use their sealing jutsu to restrict the Kyuubi however, their skills aren't strong enough to match the raw power of the Kyuubi. Mito looks terrified as she looks upon her best friend in such a demonic state. In an instant the leader of the Uzumaki clan appears.
Uzumaki Leader “Shiso: Shichuuseki Soutei Fuin (Four Symbols: Four Pillars Binding Sealing)
With great speed and skill the powerful shinobi rises four pillars around Hina, with his jutsu. A seal on the ground forms directly under her and the pillars begin go glow green. Four green chakra ropes wrap themselves around Hina and restrict her. Slowly but surly they completely bring her down and the seal on the ground creates a white glow. The chakra from Hina begins to shrink and goes into the seal until Hina is back in her normal state. Hina's passed out and the leader of the clan releases his technique and walks over to her.
Uzumaki Leader “Well it looks like two tails is her limit, anything after that and she goes berserk...everybody get back to your stations, begin cleaning up the village and get the civilians back to their homes.”
The leader slings Hina over his shoulder and walks away. Mito gets up off the ground and watches as she's taken away.
Mito “What...what happened to Hina-nee?”
Uzumaki “She's a monster, that's all she's ever been and now because she wasn't able to control herself she almost destroyed the villa~”
Mito punches the shinobi, knocking him down before he finishes his sentence.
Mito “Hina-nee is not a monster! They did something to her, they did something to her to make her act that way! It's not her fault and if you ever say that again I'll kill you!”
Mito runs after the leader of her clan to demand an explanation.
Mito “What happened to her?! What made her act like that?!”
Uzumaki Leader “Go and do you're job child, this is none of your concern”
Mito ”She's my sister, she is my concern!”
Uzumaki Leader “Watch your tone! You know better then to lie, this woman has no family”
Mito “She does. She's taken care of me my entire life and she's helped me with my jutsu. She loves me and she treats me better then anybody else. I decided a long time ago that I would do the same to her, that's what sisters do for each other and she's my family!”
The shinobi looks at her studying the young kunoichi who stood up to him.
Uzumaki Leader “It is my fault that this happened to her. She is a special type of person called a Jinchuuriki. She was given a power, a power that is used for military purposes, as a weapon”
Mito “A weapon?! You made her a weapon?!”
Uzumaki Leader “This had to be done for the village, she was given this job upon her birth, it is her duty”
Mito “That's...that's why everybody hates and fears her...that's not a duty it's a curse!...So what happened today was~”
Uzumaki Leader “We had to test to see just how far she can control the seal that binds this power to her.”
Mito “So this was your doing as well...You made her act like this and you're the one who sent the village into an uproar!”
Uzumaki Leader “You're still very young and you don't understand just how important this job is, consider yourself lucky that I've told this to you. Only me and a few shinobi know about this, this is top secret priority, you must not tell anybody”
Mito “If it's that top secret then why tell me?! Why tell me anything?”
Uzumaki Leader “Because you love her”
Mito looks at her leader slightly surprised at his reason.
Uzumaki Leader “We chose her because she had no family. No siblings, her father had died months before and her above average chakra even for us Uzumaki's caused her mother too much strain and she died giving birth...We figured she'd have nothing else to loose...however we made a mistake. A Jinchuuriki is a vessel, to hold a powerful demon that is pure hatred...we figured that vessel was completely isolated from the rest of the world that it could focus on fending off that mass amount of hatred, but we were wrong”
Mito “Are you trying to say that she's not right to be the vessel? Are you saying that you're going to kill her and give the power to somebody who can?! I can tell just by looking, whatever that power is it's too great for it to be taken out without the person dying...If that's the case then I'll fight you myself to protect her~”
Uzumaki Leader “Calm down child there will be no need for that...Even if she can't fully control the power, she's more then capable for the second reason why a Jinchuuriki is needed, to prevent what is inside her from breaking loose and and destroying the village”
Mito “So what is the right way for a Jinchuuriki to fight off the hatred of this power...tell me so I can help her”
Uzumaki Leader “You already have...From talking with you just now, the love you have for her and the obvious love she has for you back is enough”
Mito “What do you mean?”
Uzumaki Leader “A vessel must be filled with love. Only love can fend off such a powerful hatred. The way you love her...and the way she loves you back...that is what a vessel needs to fight off this power. She may have failed this test but that doesn't matter. Keep her close to you, love her through anything, and protect her as you do now. Even if she doesn't become the perfect Jinchuuriki she will at least live a happy life knowing that somebody like you has always stuck by her side”
Mito watches as her leader walks away with Hina and she contemplates what he says. Despite everything she saw, she still loves Hina, now so more then anything.
*5 years +*
Mito “What are you going to name him?”
Mito sits on a park bench next to a pregnant Hina.
Hina “(smiles) I don't know, I've always wanted a girl, I didn't think of any boy names. I'll still love him just as I would a girl though.”
Mito “Well don't treat him like a girl. Treat him like a boy...How about Shisui”
Hina “Shisui? That's an odd name”
Mito “It's probably better then the names you and Koga thought of”
Hina “Koga's a wonderful man, but he's so nervous about this”
Mito “I know, he used to act so cool but now he's a mess”
Hina “(sighs) but he's a great person, a great husband, and I know he'll be a great father...I might just name our baby after him”
Mito “That's what parents do who can't think of a name, come on be original~”
Hina “For a long time I though you were the only person who'd ever care about me”
Mito looks at Hina. Hina looks down in her lap with a gentle face and smile. Her expression though does have a bit of sadness concealed within it.
Hina “You've been my best friend for so long and you've taken such good care of me...I can't thank you enough and I can't express how much I love you”
Mito “I'd always love you Hina-nee”
Hina “When I met Koga, that mission we went on together...He protected me and he was so kind to me unlike the other members on our team. I fell in love with him but I wasn't sure that he'd return my feelings, given the fact that I was a Jinchuuriki...That day in the winter festival...when he confessed to me...That was the second happiest day of my life”
Mito “What was the first?”
Hina “(turns her head to Mito, smiles, and closes her eyes) The day I met you”
Mito looks at her surprised and then she blushes. Mito smiles and hugs Hina.
Mito “Well soon that's going to be the second happiest day of your life”
Hina “What do you mean?”
Mito “When you're baby is born...I bet you'll feel a lot happier when somebody is born into the world loving you.”
Hina smiles back at Mito and she nods her head in agreement. Days later Hina goes into labor and she gives birth to her baby. Koga and Mito are in the room with her as well as she holds her baby boy for the first time. She smiles with tears and sweat rolling down her face. The Uzumaki clan leader is also in attendance, holding down the seal that binds the Kyuubi.
Koga “He's crying...what do we do?!”
Koga is in a frantic state, after hearing his wife yell in pain trying to give birth and keep down the seal of the Kyuubi, not to mention seeing his son.
Mito “You're going to calm down. Babies cry when they're first born, that's what they do”
Koga “(wipes tears from his eyes) But~”
Mito “I've seen how much you love Hina and I know how well you protect her. Just do what you do for her, with him. Love him, protect him and take care of him (smiles)”
Koga “Alright”
Hina “Koga...come hold your son”
Koga walks over and holds his son and smiles at him. He's peaceful now in his arms and Koga feels confident at that moment. He walks over to Mito and hands him over to her.
Koga “Here Mito-chan...hold your godson”
Mito looks surprised when Koga says those words.
Mito “Godson?”
Koga “(looks at Hina) We decided...since you've always been there for the both of us...especially Hina...We decided to go with the name you picked out for him”
Mito “You mean~”
Hina “His name is Shisui Uzumaki”
Tears begin to fall down Mito's face and she wipes them off and holds onto Shisui.
Mito “Hello Shisui-kun...I just want to thank you first of all for loving your mother and your father...I also want you to know that I will love you too, and they will too. We'll protect you always”
Uzumaki Leader “(Cries hysterically) SO BEAUTIFULL”
The three laugh at their leader as he wipes the massive tears off his face, and Mito holds Shisui close to him.
*11 years +*
Dozens of Uzushio shinobi lay dead on the ground surrounding Koga and Hina. In front of them Madara Uchiha stands with his Mangekyou Sharingan staring directly at Hina. Koga places his arm in front of Hina protecting her.
Madara “You don't have to die. This matter doesn't concern you, only me and the Jinchuuriki over there”
Koga “If you think for a minute I'm going to let you anywhere near her you're crazy!”
Madara “You just dug your own grave you fool”
Madara closes and suddenly his left eye begins to bleed.
Madara “Amaterasu!”
Suddenly black flames ignite onto Koga's body and he begins to burn. He hells in pain and falls to the ground yelling in intense pain.
Hina “Koga!”
Madara “Come with me and I'll release him”
Hina looks angrily at and leaps back away from Koga and Madara. She makes rapid seals and suddenly a ring of water begins to circle around her.
Hina “Suiton: Daibakufu no Jutsu (Water Release Great Waterfall Technique)
The ring of water begins shooting out into a large vortex of water shoots down towards Koga. Madara leaps back out of the way realizing that he'd be caught in the jutsu. As the jutsu dies down Madara regains sight and he sees Hina down next to Koga. She has a scroll rolled out and she's rapidly writing down seals. She makes four quick seals and all of a sudden the flames of Amaterasu begin leaving Koga and go into the scroll's center.
Madara “Fuka Hoin (Fire Sealing Method) *She knows the abilities of the Sharingan even to this point”
Koga “(panting) Run...don't let him catch you”
Madara “I must admit, to preform such a powerful Water technique without a body of water around. Few shinobi can pull off such a feet. You may even rival Tobirama Senju”
Hina “You're Madara Uchiha...what do you want with me?”
Madara “It's not so much what I want with you, but what's inside of you to be more politically correct”
Hina “You're after the Kyuubi...no good will come of that with it in you're hands”
Madara “The Uzumaki never cease to amaze me. To be able to seal away my fire so quickly is another impressive feet, however this is where the fight comes to an end”
Hina “(makes seals) Suiton: Suikodan no Jutsu (Water Release: Water Shark Bullet Technique)”
A large body of water shapes itself into the form of a shark and rushes to Madara. Madara leaps up evading the large shark. While he's in the air multiple shuriken head towards him. Madara takes out a kunai and deflects all the shuriken. A split second after that Hina appears behind Madara. He turns his head in amazement of her reflexes and is unable to prevent her from stabbing him. As she stabs him dematerializes into multiple crows. Hina lands and multiple crows circle around her.
Hina “Genjutsu?!”
Suddenly the world turns dark and red and multiple black spikes begin to pierce Hina all throughout her body. Madara appears in front of her with his Mangekyou Sharingan staring directly into her face.
Madara “Tsukuyomi, the ultimate genjutsu. You are a strong kunoichi no doubt but this is where your life ends. When my illusion ends, so does your life. This has nothing to do with you personally, but you stand in my way. My clan has been corrupted by the insidious Senju. It's ironic how those with the strongest eyes in existence have been so blinded to the world around them. If I'm to ever restore my clan and have them see the light, Konoha must fall and those within my clan who are too ignorant to see the light must be eradicated in order to purify our blood. I need the Kyuubi in order to do that. Don't worry though, so long as you're village doesn't interfere I shall spare them destruction”
Hina “You...bastard”
In the real world Hina lays in front of Madara unconscious. He walks over to her and begins preforming seals. As he walks over he feels something grab his leg. Koga holds onto Madara, barely conscious he tries to prevent Madara from killing his wife.
Madara “If you want to be with her so bad then you shall hold each other in the afterlife. She'll join you shortly”
Madara takes the Gunbai fan off his back and using his chakra he straightens the spiked chain connected to the end of the handle, essentially making it like a sword and he stabs down directly through Koga's neck, killing him instantly. Blood spatters on Madara's hand and the chain of the fan. He continues to walk towards Hina and her takes off her shirt, and chain mail armor under. He places his hand on her stomach and makes the half tiger seal.
Madara “Lets see if I can break the legendary Four Symbols Seal of the Uzumaki clan”
The seal on Hina's stomach begins to leak like black ink off of her and a big whole appears on her stomach where her seal is. Hina begins yelling in pain. Her body begins to get with the Kyuubi's intense chakra and fill up her body. Her eyes roll into the back of her head and her body takes on the appearance of a miniature Kyuubi. Madara steps back and watches as the woman yells in agony. Mito appears on the scene with multiple shinobi and she looks in horror at the sight. She see's Koga on the ground dead and she sees her closest friend screaming pain. The Uzumaki Leader looks at Madara menacingly and Madara turns around and looks them. He smiles cynically at the group of shinobi.
Madara “You're too late”
At that moment a large beam of chakra shoots out of the whole inside of Hina and the chakra begins to take shape. A moment later the chakra forms into the Kyuubi, and the beast is freed from Hina. The demon lets out a menacing roar and all the Uzushio shinobi step back except for the leader and Mito.
Madara “*Hypnotic eye*”
The beast lets our another roar and then it can be seen, the eyes of the Kyuubi project Madara's Sharingan on it, giving him control over the beast. Madara jumps on top of the demon as it begins to charge up a powerful black ball of chakra. He releases it towards the shinobi and all of them look with fear and helplessness as the giant ball of energy shoots at them. In a mere instant the entire area behind them is leveled. All the shinobi lay on the ground except for the Uzumaki clan leader. He managed to put up a powerful kekkei jutsu to defend him and his comrades against the blast.
Madara “You're reputation does you justice, but not even you could create such a powerful defense without a price. I can see it...you're out of chakra. For an Uzumaki of your caliber to have their entire chakra drained to absolute 0, well it's only fitting, even your chakra pales in comparison to that of a Bijuu. I have no more dealing in your village. I will leave you in peace if your village stays out of my way. When this is all over maybe we could still hold an alliance with the Uzumaki”
Madara makes a few hand seals and he completely disappears with the Kyuubi. The Uzumaki leader drops to his knees. Mito regains consciousness and looks at her leader.
Mito “Sir!”
Uzumaki Leader “Mito...you have to get to Konoha...You're the only one strong enough...to seal the Kyuubi...”
Mito “But what about you and...HINA!”
Mito runs over to Hina and notices her still alive. She breaths heavily and sweat beats down her face. Hina runs over to her and lays her on her lap.
Mito “Hina-nee hold on I'll get you some hel~”
Hina “Where...where is Koga...please tell me he's alright”
Mito “He's...I'm sorry Hina, we came too late, but we can still help you~”
Hina “No...Mito you know I can't even now I'm loosing my energy rapidly...I only have a few more seconds”
Mito “Hina-nee (begins to cry)”
Hina “Do me...one thing...one favor my dear Mito...”
Mito “Anything!”
Hina “Don't let them...take...Shisui'
Hina's last breath is for her son. Tears run down the face of a broken hearten Mito. She holds her sister tight and promises her. She looks back and sees her leader dead as well. The others on the ground behind him begin to regain consciousness and Mito wipes the tears from her face and her look turns into determination. She puts down her sister and begins walking towards them.
Mito “Hurry and get up”
Uzumaki “What happened...what's going on~”
Mito “There's no time for questions. Pick yourselves up now, take care of the dead and then get back to Uzushio and evacuate the village and set off security alarm. I'm heading to Konoha, the moment you get everything under control, send as many shinobi as you can as back up. I want the entire sealing squad on my side before I reach Konoha do you understand”
Shinobi “Yes ma'am!”
Mito begins running and she wipes the last tear off her face, baring a look of utter determination and calm nature....As the battle of Konoha takes place Hashirama and Madara do battle. As soon as the shinobi come to back up Hashirama he breaks Madara's control over the beast and takes his battle with the Uchiha elsewhere. The shinobi from Konoha and Uzushio do battle with the Kyuubi until Tobirama appears and stuns the beast with his jutsu. The Kyuubi is suppressed and the shinobi try to find a suitable Jinchuuriki to act as its new host. Shisui Uzumaki was decided, against Mito's will as the new Jinchuuriki. Her mind goes back to that time when she first talked to her clan's leader, saying how she was young and didn't understand the significance of the Jinchuuriki. Mito had grown up a lot during this battle and despite her promise to her sister she had no choice. Shisui Uzumaki was summoned from Uzushio and given the task with becoming the Jinchuuriki. The beast was sealed within him and the villages of Uzushio and Konoha were saved thanks to him...A week after the attack Shisui was in the hospital. The sealing of the Kyuubi took a lot of energy out of him and he rests up. Mito enters his room and looks upon him. He sits awake as she enters and his face is filled with despair and sadness.
Mito “Shisui-kun...how are you feeling?”
Shisui “Mito-sama?...I'm doing okay”
Mito “Are you in any pain, does anything hurt?”
Shisui “Yes...actually”
Mito “What is it? You can tell me.”
Shisui “(grabs his chest) Right here...it hurts a lot, and no matter how hard I try not to think about it, it still hurts”
Mito “(looks guiltily at him) I'm sorry precious Shisui...that's...all my fault”
Shisui “No it's not Mito-sama, you've always loved me and you were like mom was to me”
Mito “I'm so sorry for everything...I couldn't protect your father or your mother...I promised her...I promised her that I wouldn't let this happen to you but I lied to her...She'll never forgive me I know it. I don't care...I don't care if she forgives me. I don't deserve it. The only thing I care about is you Shisui...you're her legacy...you are what she left behind for me to look after and I promise that I will”
Shisui “If feels different here...Konoha...it's so different from Uzushio...I've seen the way people used to look at mommy back in our village...They really used to hurt her...and it used to hurt me to see her like that”
Mito “But whenever you were around she thought of nothing else and felt nothing but happiness. That's what you gave her and that's why she loved you so much...and that's why I love yo~”
Shisui “Is that what's going to happen to me?...Are they all going to hate me too?”
Mito looks at Shisui and see's the look of fear and sadness in his face.
Mito “Don't worry, I'll always be here to love and protect you just like I did with your mother. This is a different place but I know you'll make friends who care about you and love you like I used to love your mother...like I still do, through you”
Shisui “You promise...you promise I'll make friends?”
Mito smiles and nods to Shisui and he smiles back at her.
**End Flashback**
Note: This flashback covered memories of Mito starting from when she was a little girl. The first part showed when she was 10, the second part was a memory from when she was 16, then 22, and then up to about present time. She is about 31, 32 now, Hina would've been 37 as well as Koga (Shisui's parents), and Shisui is about 12-13 years old from the beginning of the series to about right now.
Thanks for the replies people, there are still a couple parts right below this one. This isn't the whole chapter I know it's F***ing long but thanks for the replies and reps people.
