Sode no Shirayuki

Tobirama is going in and out of consciousness during the trip towards the Uchiha Compound, and every time she awakes she’ll be calling Kanna. 

Madara was baffled by the mere thought of Tobirama being a woman and holding her feeling the chakra of a mother about to give birth is giving his brain a major shutdown, he’s sure that it’s the adrenaline that’s making him move. 

His brother is shouting for him to move faster. The child his brother is holding is now silent but with tears still running in her eyes. 

Many thoughts are running in his mind as they’re running towards the compound. Is this the reason why Tobirama disappeared? because she’s pregnant? Hashirama never mentioned before that he has a sister. Why did she have to hide their gender? There’s a kunoichi in the Senju front line so being a woman is probably not the problem. Is the father the problem? Is Tobirama even married? 

But he can’t just overlook this, Tobirama is a woman and that changes many things. 

They were able to arrive at the compound and go to the healer with only a handful of people knowing, he then gives direct order to not tell anyone besides them. 

He handed Tobirama to Isaki, and as they prepped the room for Tobirama to give birth, he then went to the archives and told Hikaku to get him if the birthing process is going to start. 

The gods have handed him an answer to his prayers, and he’d be a fool not to use it.

He just needs some information about somethings to be able to convince his clan about his decision, and if the elders will not agree to it, well, Madara is the clan head of the Uchiha and he was feared for a reason. 

——

Tobirama awakens as she felt another great pain thru her stomach and female region. 

She screamed as she heard a woman gave her an order to push “Push a little bit more, you’re already crowning!”

She pushed as she screamed again, she’s in a supine position with her back being supported by a chest, and her hands were also being held by the owner of the said chest. 

“Just a little bit more, I can see the head.” Said the woman again.

She’s so exhausted, she doesn’t know if she can do it.

“You can do it Tobirama, just a little bit more.” She knows the owner of that voice, she’ve heard it before.

She gave her final push that almost tore her throat. She was panting by the time they got the baby out. She felt someone healing her female region, she asks for her baby in a weak voice that was answered by “they're cleaning your child Tobirama, it’s a boy, you did well.”

Her hands are still being held by the other.

Her baby was given to her already wrap in cotton, she was busy looking at her newborn that she didn’t notice the head that was on her shoulder, the arms that was wrap around her, and the voice that keeps on saying “you did good Tobirama, you’ve given me an heir.” 

She only notices it when she gives thanks to the woman who helped her gave birth bowed down  and left without looking at her eyes. 

She knows something is not right as she tried to remember what happened. She’s in the temple with Kanna and Tohru when a portal appeared and sucked her and Kanna, back to her past. Then she remembers everything.

She tried to turn to see who’s holding her but the hands tightened. She then sees the hand holding her wearing a familiar glove. 

She gasped as fear overtook her “Where’s Kanna?”

“Your daughter was not harmed, she’s with my brother just outside this room, he’s protecting her,” Madara answered while still hugging her.

“Protecting from what?” She asked trying to steady her voice as she tightened her hold on her newborn son

“You’re at the Uchiha compound, your water broke at our territory I have to bring you here because I don’t know anything about birthing,” Madara answered, head still on her shoulder and still hugging her.

She has to think quickly, she can’t deny who she is as they know her chakra very well, she can’t fight for she already forgot how to and she’s on the enemy's line. She maybe Kobayashi now but she’s still Tobirama to them. 

Madara stands up and sits beside her, hand on her shoulder like a half-hug as he guides her to lean on his side. She tried to fight not to lean but she’s still so exhausted.

Madara then used his other hand to touch her son, she tried to put distance between her son and Madara’s hands but the hands-on her shoulder tightened “I will never harm him Tobirama.”

“What will happen now?” She asks, fearing for her son’s and Kanna’s safety. “And why are you helping me?”

“While I was patrolling just before my brother and I spotted you, I sent a prayer to Amaterasu to provide us protection against the enemies of my clan, then I found you.”

“That doesn’t answer my question.” She asks as she looked at her son who’s peacefully sleeping and was startled by the black hair. 

“The answer is you, she answered my prayer by giving you to me.” 

“What?” She asked both pertaining to Madara’s answer and her son’s hair.

“It’s a good thing your son has black hair, now I have everything that I need to convince the elders to accept the peace. With you as my wife and your son as my heir.” 

She now then looked at Madara, with her famous dead-fish eye and blurter the first thing that comes to her mind “Are you f*cking mad?!” 

——

Apparently Madara and his clan were mad. 

Madara declared to his clan that they have secretly married and Tobirama was hiding because of her pregnancy. And his clan just accepted it, no questions asked. They didn’t even ask about the case of Kanna, they just accepted her as Madara’s daughter.

Izuna explained that the elders create a ruckus but were flattened down by Madara in a second by his fearsome chakra and when presented with some information the elders seems to accept it also, when she asked what the information was Izuna just winked at her and “You’ll just need to trust you husband sister-in-law” in which she replied with a kick at Izuna’s face. 

Kanna and Izuna seemed to bond and when Kanna was not by her side she’s always with Izuna performing pranks. Izuna seems to like Kanna genuinely and was protective especially the first couple of days where some members are questioning the legitimacy of Kanna’s parentage. 

Her son is still not named as per Uchiha’s tradition regarding the heir’s, but they got some blood from her son’s foot for some test. Speaking of heir, with her son’s hair having the same shade as Madara’s the position of her son as Madara’s was solidified. 

Kanna explained to her one night the reason as to why the baby has black hair is that newborn dragon, especially those conceived alone always inherits the traits of the first male they encountered. 

Kanna was not made the heir simply because of her gender which makes Tobirama’s blood boil, but she was also relieved, Kanna was raised as a dragon, she wouldn’t know proper human interaction. 

She’s not giving up the thought of escaping this world but the mana of this world is low that’s why Kanna wasn’t able to generate enough to portal them out yet. “I need at least 2 more moons Okasan.” 

The Uchina clan is celebrating, always making an offering to Amaterasu as gratitude for giving the clan an heir. They are also respective of her always presenting her with gifts, most are clothes that have an Uchiha crest. 

She’s still in Madara’s room as she’s still on recovery and can only stand for a couple of hours, Kanna was sleeping using her thighs as pillows while her son was feeding on her chest. 

Izuna then entered with some snacks and sits opposite her, both of them facing the koi pond and was peacefully on their own thoughts. 

“You seemed to accept everything that is happening onee-sama.” Izuna asks still looking at the koi pond but is seating informally.

“I don’t think I have a chance to win if I fight. You seemed to accept this also, are you not disturbed by the thought of my son as your clan’s heir?” 

“Nah, Madara declared him and Kanna as his’s so they’re my niece and nephew, blood or not.” Tobirama cannot fathom how this clan works, he doesn’t remember the Uchiha governing their clan like this before. 

“And wouldn’t your clan notices that both of my children don’t have any Sharingan?” She countered wanting Izuna to think about this clearly, though Tobirama is confident that they have already escaped this world by that time comes. 

“Well face that problem when it comes, but don’t worry about it while its still not here”

That makes Tobirama’s face twitch with annoyance “Your peace is being written with lies. Why don’t you take this seriously.”

But before Izuna was able to reply Madara entered the room. 

“What is not taken seriously?” Madara asks

“Everything, this whole situation!” Tobirama is at her wit's end and she’s seriously irritated by both brothers. 

“What situation?” Madara asks again as he sits beside Tobirama and lifts the sleeping Kanna and placed it on his chest, Kanna remained sleeping. 

“You declaring me as your wife! You declaring my children as yours! You using this for peace.”

The cloth that was on his chest used as a shield as she feeds her son falls down because of the commotion, Izuna hurriedly closed his eyes, and Madara just puts it back and shifts Kanna on a much more comfortable situation. 

“Don't you want peace?” 

“How could you ask that, of course, I do!”

“Then I don’t see this as a problem? Am I so appalling that the idea of me being your husband causes you this so much conflict.”

That makes Tobirama stutter “N-no! That’s not the problem! How could you both accept this so easily?”

Madara sighed “Izuna leave us for a moment, take Kanna with you.” 

And when Izuna left Madara scooted close to her which makes her uncomfortable. 

“I would like you to know and remember Tobirama, that no harm will ever happen to you and your children, as they are now mine too. But I would also like you to remember your position. I may have declared you as my wife but you’re still a prisoner of war. And I have every right to use you, especially for the prosperity of my clan.” 

Madara then placed his hands on her back and hums as his other hard caress her son’s face. 

Minutes have passed and Madara seems content with humming and caressing her son. When Madara talks again. “Who’s the father?”

Tobirama didn’t answer. 

“Did you know that I almost lost your case? Elder Hiruki requested a blood test in our son to see if he really has Uchiha blood in his veins and you know the result of the test Tobirama? He does have Uchiha blood. Now tell me, who’s the father?”

Tobirama’s world has turned upside down, how can she explain that her son is not human but a dragon and that newly born dragons take over the appearance, blood, ability and etc of the first male they will encounter after birth.

“I can’t.”

“I will find him eventually Tobirama.” Madara then lifts her face to look at him “Is he on the compound?”

She just shook her head. 

Madara then dropped her face and puts his on her shoulder. 

Minutes have passed and her son is still sleeping when Madara continues “Pray that I don’t find him Tobirama, cause if I do, I will enjoy killing him.”

“Why?” She don’t understand Madara’s reasoning, and as to why Madara seems angry.

“Because you’re mine."

Tobirama should escape, she's not safe here nor Kanna nor her son. Deep in her thoughts, she didn't notice Madara placing her down on the futon" You should rest, I still have many questions that you need to answer."
