Chapter 2
The slim figure crept on soundless feet around the sleeping Uchiha and moved like a ghost to the side of the only non-Uchiha left in the building. Carefully, the person extended one glowing blue hand and moved it across the sleeping Senju. Then the glow around the hand turned green and was joined by the other hand. Gently resting on the chest of the sleeping man, the figure concentrated for several minutes.
The glow disappeared and the person placed a hand on Tobirama’s right shoulder and gently tapped three times. Tobirama’s eyes flew open. The crimson eyes grew wide with shock “To…”
“Shhh…” the admonition was less than a whisper. “Tobira, can you move?”
“Need clothes.” Came the equally soft reply.
A storage scroll was quietly pulled from a thigh pouch and clothing appeared with a small ‘poof.’ Tobirama gingerly sat up and began pulling on the clothing.
From the darkness “Going somewhere?” came the soft words of Madara Uchiha.
“Run!” commanded Tobirama.
The slim figure didn’t say a word but sprung away from Tobirama, took two flying steps over the waking bodies of Izuna and Kozue. It reeled back from the Fireball that Madara spit out. Izuna took the opportunity to tackle the figure to the floor.
And he shrieked yelped manfully as a vicious knee got him right in the manhood. In response, Izuna punched the person in the face.
“Tobi!”
Izuna tried to hold onto the unconscious intruder, but Tobirama kicked him in the ribs. Izuna rolled to his feet and crouched with a kunai in his hand as Tobirama carefully picked up the intruder and began stroking a pale cheek. “Tobi…”
Kozue stared with wide eyes “Oh…” He pulled back the blankets of his pallets. He moved to Tobirama’s side. “Let me see.”
Tobirama clutched the limp figure to his chest and, against all Senju rules, stared straight into Kozue’s eyes, who met his with dark-eyed calm. Tobirama nodded and carefully placed the intruder on Kozue’s pallet. Kozue carefully placed his own green-glowing hands on the pale face.
A moan left the pink lips. The surrounding Uchiha gasped as the intruder’s eyes opened and revealed orbs that matched Tobirama’s. The crimson eyes flickered rapidly around the now brightly lit room then looked at the Senju. “Tobira?”
“It’s…over, Tobi.” Came the quiet response.
“Shit.”
Izuna flapped a hand at the intruder. “Who the hell are you?”
“Tobirama Senju.”
Izuna glared and pointed at the man they had rescued a few hours before “He’s Tobirama Senju. So how in the hell can you be Tobirama Senju?”
Madara, who had been on Watch, quietly approached “And how can you be Tobirama Senju when you are female.”
Over the exclamations of shock from the other Uchiha except for Kozue who had figured it out when Izuna was kneed in the balls (men don’t usually kick other men in the balls unless there was no other choice), male Tobirama spoke:
“Butsuma-sama was a superstitious asshole.”
