It was supposed to be a game

[blueayes]

[][][][
Naruto felt everyone's eyes on him, but he wasn't the only one everyone in the class was looking at, Hinata was once again the center of attention and just like him everyone wanted to know why they were wearing the SDenju clans uniform.

"Okay Naruto tell us what's going on," Sakura said to him and Naruto couldn't help but give her a wide smile

"Yesterday, I was told that I'm now a member of the Semnjuclan and a lot more kids are members now too" Naruto answered Sakura

'You?" Sakura asked him as she pointed at him

"Yep, Davids wife came back and everyone got new clothes," Naruto said to her

"So why is Hinata wearing the uniform?" Ino asked him

'Lady Tsunade came back and because I'm living with her" Hinata tried to say but she struggled to say everything

"It would be rude for you not to wear the uniform" Ino finished Hinatas words for her

"So are you going to be wearing that from now on?" Sasuke asked him

"No, it's just for today. David said I can wear what I want when I'm in the clan territory but when I'm out of it I have to wear it, but I'm going to ask him to let me wear my normal clothes you know since I like those" Naruto answered Sasuke

The bell rang and the class was over, normally Naruto would have rushed out of the room to go and do anything but this time he decided to wait for Hinata so they could catch up to David and everyone else.

Unfortunately, his plan failed because Hinatas maid picked Hinata up the moment she walked out of the academy and everyone else had already left without him, nothing had changed he was still alone, Naruto thought to himself.

So with nothing else to do, he began to wander around, and before he knew it he had accidentally entered a part of the village that wasn't too nice.

He felt the looks everyone gave him, but unlike usual, no one bothered to yell at him.

He kept on walking until he accidentally hit a stall and caused some of the fruits to fall.

Naruto waited for the man to start throwing the fruits at him and yell at him, but the man never did, no instead the man just glared at him and began to pick everything up.

"What's going on?" Naruto asked himself

'You're a member of the Senju clan and both of the clans heads are here" Itachi answered him

"Everyone could yell at you and throw things at you, with no one coming after them, now, however, they have to deal with David and his wife if they do," Itachi said to him as he picked up a mango and handed it to the man

"Who are you?" Naruto asked Itachi

'I'm Sasukes brother and a friend of David's" Itachi answered Naruto as he walked past him

"What are you doing here Naruto?' Itachi asked Naruto as he turned to look at him and handed him a folded up invitation

"What is this?" Naruto asked him

"You're supposed to be back in the Senju clans territory getting ready," Itachi said to Taruto as Naruto read the invitation

"Lady Tsunade is having a party to celebrate the fact that her territory is finally finished being rebuilt, and the new additions to her clan, meaning you and everyone else," Itachi said to Naruto

'It just so happens my parents and I are friends with David and so he asked me to find you when he went to invite us personally" Itachi said to Naruto, but for some reason, Naruto felt as if Itachi's words weren't directed at him

Naruto was going to say something else when Itachi just pointed past him and said "Go"

After Naruto left Itachi didn't bother turning around he just felt the ground around him move.

"Whats are you doing here Ana?" he asked his friend

'That was nice, so what happened to the Itachi that always grunted?' Ana said to him as she placed her face next to his

'Someone told me I was too cold for my age" Itachi answered Ana and Ana just got a little bit closer to him

"Is it a girrrl?" Ana asked him with a smile that just seemed to grow more and more

"I don't have to answer that," he said to her as he turned around and walked away but Ana wasn't going to leave him alone

"Come one tell me," she said to him

"No' he answered her

They did this for a while until Itachi finally had enough and vanished leaving Ana behind, unfortunately, Lilli is Anas partner and she quickly found him the moment he landed

Itachi tried to escape, but every time he landed Lili would find him and Ana wouldn't be too far behind, he couldn't help but smile and then laugh, out of every one of his friends Ana was like a light that always made everyone smile in one way or another.

"Why can't I wear my uniform?"David asked his mom who placed his new clothes in front of him

"Because as clan head you have to dress in a way that separates you from everyone else" she answered him

His clothes were mostly the same, but unlike before his coat was completely black and his shirt was now white, his pants were the same color.

His new clothes were the same fabric as his old ones and the only difference was the color.

He noticed that as Marked walked in that he on the other hand had his mask on its white side and as David was about to turn his mask Mark immediately said no to him.

Like it or not David would have to act as the head of the clan even if he didn't like it.

Ana walked in after a while and David smirked as he imagined the hard time she must have had trying to catch Itachi, who somehow always managed to get away from her, she was wearing similar clothes to the ones both he and Mark wore.

Finally, the rest of his friends walked in and it was then that the three of them raised an eyebrow each.

Their friends were wearing the same clothes they always did, but all of the colors had been exchanged, now their coats were black while everything else they wore was white.

Yet both Mark and David felt their attention focus itself on the masks their friends wore.

"Maybe we shouldn't wear our masks today," David said to his friends who looked at him with confused expressions

'What do you mean?" Heku asked

'Politics" Mark immediately answered without hesitating

"You have to wear them, "Tsunade said to them as she walked in and for a moment both David and Mark felt their former selves separate themselves from the boys they currently were.

Tsunade was dressed in a kimono that fit her perfectly, every curve on the woman seemed to show even more than usual and if David had been just ac couple of years older he would have had to restrain himself from knocking the woman down right there and then.

Tsunade handed David the seating arrangements and to David's surprise, everyone was accounted for.

"Why aren't our parents?" David began to ask but he stopped talking when he felt Marks hand on his shoulder

He then remembered that the only real member of the Senju clan was himself everyone else was either an honorary member or was simply living with him as a guest.

"Your parents will be close by," Tsunade said to him as she pointed at a nearby table

David couldn't help but look at what was placed in front of him all of his friends were present, but for whatever reason Hinata would be sitting to his left while Tsunade would be at his right.

Mark was the same Ana was at his right, while Shizune was at his left and finally, Heku had Mini at his right and Sonia at his left.

"You know when I said I left everything to you, I expected to be able to leave all of this behind," David said to Tsunade who just smiled at him before taking the paperback

"So what are you planing?" David asked Tsunade

'What do you mean?" Tsunade faked ignorance

"Come on I have no reason to do this, and let's be honest here we don't have a lot of money," David said to Tsunade as he pointed out the obvious

"I just want to see how many rats need to be taken care of and how many crows need to be shown their place" Tsunade answered David

'I have no idea what you mean" David said to Tsunade bluntly before he turned to look at Hinata who had just arrived and to his surprise, she was wearing the same clothes he was wearing.

"So that's their plan," Tsunade said as she looked at Hinata, but before she could say anything else she had to admit she felt irritated when she noticed that David's attention was firmly placed on Hinatas Nanny

"Mark does he do this all of the time?" Tsunade asked Mark as she watched David stand next to the woman as he tried to catch a glimpse under her skirt

"Yep" Mark answered her

"He does know we're married right?' heshe asked Mark

'Doesn't care, you haven't been around, and it's always been just us" Mark answered her before excusing himself

This was going to be a problem, Tsunade thought to herself as she looked at David as he was pulled away from the woman by Mark.

She wasn't someone that cared for things like tradition because what did it matter anymore to her, unfortunately, the leaf was a place built on traditions and her forced marriage to David wasn't out of the ordinary and was quite common.

Young boys and girls were paired with people that could be their grandparents for either political gain better lands or military power.

From everyone else's point of view, David and by extension his parents had gained land and some power politically.

And Tsunade had gained control over several wielders of multiple different Kekkei Genkai as well as closer ties with the Uchiha clan, thereby gaining military support.

All of that meant that if David was to take a mistress then whoever that mistress was would suddenly become untouchable as long as she remained under David's care.

"And I just helped them do it," Tsunade said to herself, as she silently cursed herself for not seeing the Hyugas plan

Unbeknownst to her, however, the council was having a meeting regarding the future of the village, it has been years since the death of the fourth Hokage and for the first time in a long time, the village had not one but four people to choose from to replace the third.

Fugaku already had the Senju clan's vote as well as his own, but that didn't mean the entire council supported him.

While three others favored Danzo, they weren't above changing their vote if Jiraiya or Tsunade accepted replacing the third.

Unfortunately, they couldn't decide on anything so they dismissed the meeting and headed towards the party Tsunade had prepared.

[In another time, this would have been the same time Itachy would have killed his clan now he would have to, as more than one ninja was keeping a close eye on the Uchiha that came and went from the Senju clans territory']

 

[blueayes]

Fugaku listened to the elders of the Uchiha clan talk amongst themselves, he was fully aware that most of them weren't happy with the current situation.

Yet at the same time, they couldn't argue about the treatment they were having at the moment.

Tsunade's party had gone off without any problems and to his surprise, both himself and the rest of his clan were treated fairly, there weren't any real signs of any friendly gestures but there weren't any cold glares from any of the other gur=ests.

At least none that the other clans bothered to publicly display anyway.

Ever since Tsunades return to the leaf David had released himself of any of the responsibilities he had and returned to acting as another kid, meaning that he spent most of his time now either training with his team or helping his recently adopted members to learn to use whatever Jutsu he knew.

The elders had decided to see just how much they could test the Ambus patience and by extent, the councils' patience by regularly entering the Senjus territory and staying at one of the houses one of their relatives were living in.

To everyone's surprise, however, Tsunade didn't voice her disapproval, she simply said that if the elders wanted to keep doing this they needed to provide her with something in exchange.

Normally everyone would have argued, but they were reminded by Tsunade that the only ones permitted to live in her territory were the ones that helped rebuild it.

Reluctantly the elders either gave up a fair amount of money to pay for their extended stay or gave a low-level scroll that anyone could get their hands on as payment.

Up until now, the three kids had been safe considering that they honestly couldn't go anywhere except their territory and as a result, they were surrounded by multiple members of his clan that were more than willing to put their lives on the line to keep their only allies safe.

Now, however, that was no longer the case.

For a brief moment Fugaku wondered if things had changed at all, the Uchiha had been able to move closer to the village and now had a say in the ongoings of everyday life, but that had all been possible because of the Senju clans power.

Politically and socially speaking, it looked as if the newly revived Senju clan favored the Uchiha clan more than their previous allies the Hyuga clan.

Yet in the celebration that was held the eldest of the Hyuga clan's daughters sat next to David.

It could be said that she had been taken in by the boy as his mistress, after all, it was no mystery to anyone that Hinata had been removed as the new head of the Hyuga clan after being deemed too weak for the position.

Fugaku knew that he didn't have to worry about Tsunade becoming the next Hokage anytime soon for she had her hands full at the moment.

She now had to deal with the work both David and Mark had been doing while she was done, not to mention arguing with the council over the Jichuriki.

It was as if a spring had been pressed until it couldn't be pressed anymore and the result after shot back up, would be felt for years to come.

The room fell silent as Tsunade walked in, next to her was her assistant and the piglet that served as her familiar.

'Welcome Tsunade' Fugaku said to her and he received a bow from her as she walked in

"So for what do we owe the honor," Fugaku said to her as Tsunade stood in front of him

'I'm here to accept your wives offer on behalf of my husband" Tsunade answered Fugaku

Fugaku understood that Tsunade was here for more than one reason after all Mark had been the one Miko had personally trained.

"You have to admit that I'm confused, as I understand Mark falls under your husbands' control as he has served him and only him since before David married you" Fugaku pointed out the obvious to Tsunade

"Mark is David's eyes and we both know that Ana serves as his ears, meaning that while they train with Mikoto your clan will be the ones in charge of molding the two of them" Tsunade answered him

Fugaku could feel his irritation grow and judging by the looks that the elders had in their eyes, he wasn't the only one that felt that way.

"What are you implying?' he asked Tsunade who just waved at her assistant who took out several bottles of wine and began to hand them out.

'I'm not implying anything, I'm just here to say thank you" Tsunade said to him

'You know the Senju clan doesn't have a lot of funds at the moment so I hope this small show of good faith can bring us a little bit closer" Tsunade said to Fugaku as Mikoto received the bottle of wine from Shizune

Fugaku noticed as the mood in the room began to change and despite not allowing her to both Tsunade and Shizune sat in front of him and Mikoto.

'What do you want?' Fugaku said to her

"I want you to put both Mark and David in a Genjutsu" Tsunade said to him with a voice that was lacking any emotion

"The elementals would never allow it," Fugaku said to her but Tsunades pig simply oinked in response

'they will if I ask them to" Tsunade answered Fugaku

"Why should I?" Fugaku said to Tsunade, he didn't have any reason to deny her request but more than one person in the room felt as if he had already done more than enough for the Senju

"The two of them are mature and talented for their age, but unlike anyone else in the academy they haven't been put in a situation that they couldn't overcome or was completely out of their control"

Tsunade said to Fugaku and as she spoke she locked eyes with Mikoto who made the memory of when she had taken the girls with her and when David had wed himself to her flashed before their eyes.

"I wouldn't say that," Mikoto said to Tsunade

"Still, you are right about them being far behind most if not everyone else," Mikoto said to Tsunadeas she placed more than one picture in front of Tsunade

Tsunade felt a vein grow as she looked at the evidence of not only David but Mark as well as they tried to peek at several women in the clothing stores that had been opened in her territory.

"They aren't too good at hiding," Mikoto said to her as she smirked
Tsunade knew the woman didn't mean anything by showing her this, she just wanted to tease Tsunade about Davids past actions

"Let's say we take your request what do you offer in return?" Fugaku said to Tsunade

'i'm opening a school to train the new additions to my clan"

'it's a school for training medical-nin, they won't be trained in combat but in healing and handling things like pregnancies and people that were poisoned"

"Normally training people from another clan wouldn't be possible, but if my husband and I were to owe you and your wife payment for things we owe you separately," Tsunade said to Fugaku

'I'll need some time to think about this" Fugaku said to Tsunade and Tsnade excused herself before leaving

The entire room fell into a heavy silence, on one hand, Fugaku had just been asked to attack both David and Mark, on the other hand, Tsunade a master of healing was offering to train the members of his clan in her clan's healing skills.

The implications of this were many and soon the entire room was filled with murmurs that quickly became shouting matches between the elders.

Some wanted to take the offer others didn't, Fugaku was honestly surprised that those that once argued about keeping their distance from the boy were nowhere to be seen.

It was them that wanted to accept Tsunades offer.
][][
The air had become eerily calm as the two of them looked at one another, the smooth blade of Davids's sword somehow reflected both the sky and the ground beneath it all the while it showed the many cracks Mikoto had been unable to fix when she repaired it.

David gasped as he tried to breathe, it had taken everything he had just to be able to last as long as he did, he had taken more than one hit and despite being completely unarmed Hana didn't have a scratch on her.

He had been forced to use every trick that knew both from his old life and new one and yet the woman in front of him was completely unaffected.

Hana used her eyes to either find the weaknesses of his creatures and beat them into submission with hardly any effort.

Innocentius had tried to help him but Hana forced his elemental to stay out of the fight.

Sweat dripped from his forehead and judging by how it had become increasingly difficult to hold onto his sword, his hands were covered with it.

David smirked he knew what the Hyugas eyes could do and so he had prepared for them, he had developed a skill that allowed him and him alone to be able to see the area around him perfectly.

he wouldn't be able to see anything with his eyes, but he would be able to sense a person where ever they went, and by doing so he removed the need for the use of his eyes.

His trick had caught Hana by surprise, but she quickly recovered and resumed her attack.

The embers he had spread through the area didn't burn or affect anything, not yet at least, but they served their purpose, they were keeping him alive.

Innocentius wrapped himself around David's hand before firing a concentrated blast of pure molten lava at Hana, and yet the woman somehow managed to grave that same hand and force the attack back at David.

Innocentius intercepted the attack and left David completely exposed.

Everyone that was watching visibly flinched at the sound that Hana's fist made when it made contact with David's chest.

However Hanana wasn't going to end her attack there no, she kept on attacking until she was certain neither David nor Innocentius had any fight left in them

"You lost David," Hana said to David as Innocentius wrapped himself around David and began to heal him

"No, I didn't" David struggled to say as his eyes were locked on an opened area where Hanas Kimono was opened.

For a moment Hana felt the need t run away, no one was supposed to see her undergarments except her husband, but then she realized that David wasn't looking up at her clothes he was looking past her.

She quickly jumped out of the way as Lili used the last of its strength to grave ahold of her, while Mini wrapped chains around or.

Hana would have praised her student's efforts but, she wouldn't, their attack failed and she knocked all three of them out and placed them next to Mark and the rest of Mikoto's team.

The sound of clapping reached her ears as the onlookers showed their praise for the show she had just given them.

As things stood, the Senju clan didn't have a proper training ground and so David- Mark, and Ana had been training with everyone.

So now that Hana had started to train them again she continued their public training.

her guards had advised against it, but she was using this excuse to be able to pass time with Hinata before and after she beat the instincts into the kids.

Hana placed a hand on Hinatas head and enjoyed her daughter's head as she leaned on her.

She had taken advantage of David when he was still vulnerable to keep Hinata safe and her plan worked, but now her daughter was somewhere she couldn't reach her under any other circumstances.

Hana sat with Hinata and enjoyed her daughter's stories, she heard about her days in the academy and how the boys worked every day, then the two of them would sin silently just enjoying each other's company.

Hana watched as Tsunade walked back home and to her surprise, Tsunade was once again wearing clothes that were a little too provocative.

Every wrinkle either served to emphasize Tsunades breast or the curves on the woman's body and the way Tsunade walked seemed to have an extra skip than she did before.

Hana had seen Tsunade before and after she had been affected by the war and neither time did she, no that wasn't true.

There was a time Tsunade was happy Hana paid close attention to the saint smile Tsunade hid from everyone and she nearly let out a gasp.

Tsunade was smiling.

"Why?" Hana thought to herself and then she remembered

The Senju clan had been destroyed when Tsunade left the village, then when she returned she had found not one but three people that survived.

Then after a brief incident, Tsunade left, and when she returned she found herself looking at her clan slowly coming back to life, like a field that was once dead but now had grass growing in it.

Hana watched as Tsunade was greeted by Naruto and when Naruto ran off with the other children she noticed how the woman's eyes hardened when she found David body laying unconscious

 

[blueayes]

"I see you aren't holding back," Tsunade said to Hana as she walked up to her

"No, they need to learn fast," Hana said to Tsunade as Hinata excused herself and left the two alone

"Here," Hana said to Tsunade as she took out a small stack of papers

'Mark is good, but unfortunately, he isn't as good as he thinks he is" Hana said to Tsunade as Tsunade began to read the papers Hana gave her

She immediately felt her anger grow as she read, the village was expecting the heir to the Senju clan to have an older woman than himself just as David had when he married Tsunade.

It wasn't just that, the other clans already had several of their daughters ready to present them to Tsunade so she could find the one that would serve as Mark's wife.

"Mark isn't a member of my clan, "Tsunade said as she looked at Anas name

"Does it matter, Mark has knows the secrets of your clan and he's served David faithfully, to the council and the village he's already been adopted by your clan" Hana answered her

"So why are you giving all of this to me," Tsunade said to Hana, as she handed the stack of papers to Shizune

'And how was I supposed to give this to David?"

'We both know he was being watched by everyone, and if I was to give him all of the evidence those that were spying on him would do everything in their power to hinder him in everything he did even further" Hana answered Tsunade

Hana watched as a guard brought some wine to Tsunade before Shizune took it and began to serve the two of them

Hana watched as Tsunade drank one glass after another and she quickly realized that Tsunade still had the habits she had developed during her time away from the village.

"You know I had to stop drinking because of them," Tsunade said to Hana as she placed a hand on the sleeping girls, Haa watched as she patted each one of them before she took another drink.

'I have to do it when they're asleep" Tsunade said to Hana, as Hana listened to Tsunade as she drunkenly spoke her words, Hana soon found herself focusing on the wide smile Tsunade had on her.

Normally Hana would have commented that a proper lady shouldn't get drunk in front of others, and she would have as she knew Tsunade long enough to be able to speak freely to her.

"Hana I'm married," Tsunade said to Hana as she looked at the glass in her hands before giving her a wide grin

"Me, I'm married to a boy that could easily be my son, and that same boy did everything I couldn't," Tsunade said to her as her smile became one filled with grief.

'i have no right to stop him if, no when he finds someone he likes" Tsunade said to her

'And yet you know that you have to" Hana said to Tsunade as she remembered her relatives when they had married men\ women that were older than themselves.

"You know you could always separate," Hana said to Tsunade and she watched as Tsunade lost her smile

"We both know we cant' Tsunade said to Hana, there wasn't any need for her to do so, as Hana understood full well the implication of David leaving the Senju clan.

"Why don't you try and make a life with him?" Hana asked said to Tsunade, she didn't expect Tsunade to answer her he simply wanted to point out the obvious

"Because he will die" Tsunade answered Hana, his words were quick and left no room for arguments

Hana briefly remembered Tsunades family, then her dead husband she wanted to give her friend some words of comfort anything that might help Tsunade let go of some of the pain she carried.

'David isn't so easily killed, I mean look" Hana said to Tsunade and they both watched the elementals keeping guard over the Whitejaws.

"We don't even have anything in common, I mean we're worlds apart," Tsunade said to Hana as she looked at her empty glass and as Shizune was about to pour more sake for Tsunade, Hana watched as Tsunade rejected the sake for the first time since they started drinking.

Both women stopped talking when they noticed that Fugaku and Mikoto arrived.

"Good they're asleep," Fugaku said to them as he looked at the sleeping forms of Mark and David

"Tsunade please make sure they don't get involved," Fugaku said to Tsunade, he ignored Tsunades drunken state and he watched as Tonton spoke to the elementals who reluctantly allowed Fugaku to do what he wanted.

Fugaku concentrated he was going to put the boys in a deep dream one that would force them to reveal their truest thoughts and personalities, while at the same time he created a small projection that would allow everyone present to see what was going on and interfere if the situation became too dangerous for both boys.

He made sure that both David and Mark had everything they usually had with them on them and as both boys went deeper into their memories they would be able to find and use the skills and weapons that they knew.

Tsunade watched as the dream began and she used her chakra to burn through the alcohol she had drunk, she had to be sober for this.
][]][

 

[blueayes]

David stood at the entrance to the Senju clan's territory for whatever reason the Uchiha had suddenly asked to be allowed to enter the territory in mass and considering Tsubade had left him in charge of everything again, he allowed them to do it.

Mark was gone now and with him Ana, but he wasn't alone his parents were with him, so he wasn't alone.

Even Innocentius was gone, the council had figured out a way of sealing him away so David was forced to rely on every technique he had copied from every show and comic he could remember.

The villagers had become even colder than usual but there was one good thing, he had figured out how to copy all of his favorite techniques, so he now had the Kamehameha and a bunch of abilities that didn't exist in this world.

the day passed quickly and soon he was alone, the other kids were asleep and he was now sitting by himself in the usual spot.

The night was quiet, but it didn't feel unnatural, not until now anyway.

David focused and allowed his embers to spread but he couldn't find anything.

Something deep inside told him that he was in danger so he did something he and his friends had set up a long time ago.

he activated the drawings, David felt his brain hurt as the memories of everything the drawings or papers had seen filled his mind.

He nearly let out a blood-filled scream as his muscles remembered every hand seal, the correct way he was supposed to move, and a bunch of other things people took years to learn.

[ Tsunade and everyone else watched David's dream and as soon as they saw the drawings several Uchiha ran to look for them and immediately returned and confirmed that they did indeed exist. ]

David opened the door to the mansion and found it was too quiet, he began to open every door and found them empty.

He finally reached his parent's room and found them asleep, he opened Hinatas room and found her holding onto her Maid in the corner of the room.

David ran up to them and found that someone had taken their eyes.

Thankfully both Hinata and her Maid were still alive, but they were unconscious.

David placed several pieces of paper on the floor and walls of the room, before running to cheek on the other kids and he found them all dead.

He remembered his parent and when he entered their room and shook them to wake them up he found that someone had slight their thoughts while they were asleep.

He ran back to Hinata and found both her and her maid were still safe, it
was obvious that whoever attacked them knew better than to kill them.

Again he spread his embers but this time he not only used them to sense the area around him, but he combined them with the drawings and remaining sheets of paper around the village, now he could sense and see everything that was going on.

he immediately noticed something was completely off, none of the usual guards were anywhere.

Normally ninjas were jumping around spying on everyone, but there weren't any now.

"No," David said as he realized that the council must have taken their chance and decided to kill him and everyone else

He ran outside and found the dead bodies of the Uchia everywhere.

"Solar flare" David screamed as he copied an ability from Dragon Ball Z

He found the assassins or but they were already dead, someone must have betrayed them

His embers felt someone brush on them and began to set fire on the person's clothes alerting David to the person's presence.

avid jumped away and used Gigamehes gate of Babel to throw every weapon he had at this would-be killer.

The man dodged the attack ad skillfully flung every sword- spear- dagger and ax back at David.

Unfortunately for the man David never bothered to make any improvements on the weapons instead he had done something else entirely to them.

He had made sure that e could make the weapons break when he wanted them to, and the pieces of those weapons would fire towards his opponent.

So as thousands of blades flew towards the man, David ran, he had just one more trick he could use, but everything had to be right for him to be able to use it.

He ran towards the same spot he and Mark had placed Innocentiuses summoning circle and forcefully summoned the elemental

'Bankay" David said and forced Innocentius to grow in power as the elemental roared all of the recently killed Uchida and Davids Family rose as burning zombies.

Yet they weren't alone, every person that had either did- had been killed in the Hiddenleaf or was buried there rose and attacked his enemy.

Yet the man was more powerful than David ever imagined.

David soon found his mind stopping as he found Mark amongst the dead and with him his friends, even Tsunade and her piglet was there.

"Innocentius!" David screamed as the elemental called forth every other elemental and they all attacked the assassin

Yet despite all of this, David never knew when the other person managed to get behind him, he only felt the blade of his sword enter his back and come out of his chest.

David grinned as his attack was already set in motion and nothing was stopping it now.

He smiled as a pair of massive fireballs fell from the sky and with them several spheres that used the power of the elements.

he would take everyone in the village with him, as revenge.

[tdsunade watched in horror as David had been more than willing to use the dead and disturbed their rest.

Not only that as she watched the smoldering creator that stood where the Leaf once stood, she wondered what kind of a monster David truly was. }

 

[blueayes]

Oink- oink- oink!" Ton ton desperately oinked as fire began to cover the Senju clans territory

Tsunade and everyone else could hear the collective moans of the dead as their rest was being disturbed.

"Roar!" Innocentius roared and silenced them.

Everyone present didn't make a sound, not even the Uchiha who had gathered to witness Divids and Marks mental training, or what they believed to be their training.

Everyone now had their attention on what was happening inside Marks dream and to their surprise, Mark's dream was completely different from Davids

Mark was locked inside a holding cell waiting to be interrogated]
][][]
Mark smirked everything had gone off without any problems everyone that wanted to leave, left with Heku and the girls, even their parents left the village meaning that they would soon start their own village away from all of the idiots.

Unfortunately, as usual, it was up to him and David to hold the Council off and give everyone else time to do what they needed to.

He didn't doubt that the leaf would send assassins to kill everyone, but both David and he had made were to teach everyone that could learn ways of using one power or another that didn't involve chakra.

Hell, everything they did already was done by using chakra at all.

[this revelation caught everyone watching the dream by surprise, everyone had just assumed that everything the boys were doing was simply by a different method of chakra control than the ones they were familiar with]

Mark watched as the door to his cell opened and someone threw David's head in.

'he refused to talk" the man said to mark as Mark looked at David's head

"If you think this guy is going to stay dead," Mark said to the man who just glared at him in response

"Your friend was put in a genjutsu and he revealed certain things, like the variety to bring back the dead and a plan to destroy the village," the man said to Mark and only received a laugh from mark

'You made him think we were dead didn't you?" Mark asked the man but the man didn't answer

"Yeah, that guy believes that the dead should stay dead, our bodies are nothing but shells for the real us, so even if he made our bodies fight he left us alone," Mark said to the man as strings of energy begin to wrap themselves around him

The ninjas that have been watching his conversation with the man immediately react but it's too late, the strings have already done their job.

Mark teleports out of the cell and finds himself at the same spot David placed to summon his spirit.

For a brief moment, Mark looks around and remembers everything, David- Ana, and himself experienced here and places his hand on the summoning circle.

What he's about to do, is something that will forever label him as a monster.

Inside the interrogation cell, David's head dissolves, and in the room where his body was kept the people preparing it to be cremated watch in horror as David's body dissolves.

Mark smirks as David stands in front of him alive and well.

"It was a dream?" David asked Mark

"Not for long" Mark answered David as they notice all of the Ambu surrounding them

The two of them are ready to fight with everything they have, they don't have any reason to kill anyone here, after all, neither Mark nor David can die and any amount of torture can become a pleasure thanks to Lilli's power.

They watch as the Third and the rest of the Council walk towards them and order them to turn themselves in.

Normally both boys would have obeyed but considering that David had already been killed once, neither of them felt that they had to listen.

It would have taken a second, for both of them to de at the hands of every ninja present, but what Mark had done was something not even David would ever be willing to do.

David's resurrection was nothing more than a side effect of him using the summoning circle to do what it was meant to do.

He summoned the elementals in their truest forms.

No longer where they humanoids energy beings, or wood- dirt or whatever they used to interact with the world.

o now they presented themselves in their truest forms.

A massive dragon that evaporated the water in the world began to melt the very ground it stood in, roared as an angel of light blinded everyone present, the very forest itself had turned on the people that it once protected.

[Everyone watched in horror as the dream contined]

Mark and David held hands as if understanding what was about to happen.

A massive devil emerged from the darkness where no light could reach and the waters of the world retreated and took the form of a woman.

People suffocated as the air was ripped from their bodies and yet no one could move or die.

The dream ended as both boys walked out of the village and wrote a note before finally leaving.

'You sure?' Mark asked David who just nodded

'Yeah only an idiot would attack us after that" David said to Mark it was only after the boys had reached the new village that the spirits finally vanished but not before erasing anyway of that the leaf could use to summon them]

Tsunade turned to Fuh=gaku and said

I thought you said that things would go from bad to worse for them?" she asked Fugaku who just looked at the sleeping form of Mark

"I did, to Mark letting everyone live is the worse outcome" Fugaku answered her

"he knows that the village won't ever stop hunting them and after what they just did they sentenced everyone to become the targets of every other village," Mikoto said to Tsunade

Tsunade looked at the two boys and closed her eyes, the two boys were monsters one would destroy the village for killing everyone he cared about and the other wouldn't hesitate to end things if he knew things would go from bad to worse.

It was as if she was looking at a pair of rabid dogs that were only being kept in line by the chains they had placed on themselves.

 

[blueayes]

Tsunade, Jiraiya, and the Third sat with each other everyone had left as soon as Mark's dream ended, some of the witnesses had been disturbed by Mark's dream others felt that both Mark and David were their allies and their allies alone.

Still, Tsunade and Jiraiya knew that something had to be done before the two boys truly grew to become a threat to the village.

Hiruzen had heard about what had been done to the boys and had witnessed their dreams personally.

"So what are you going to do?" Jiraiya asked Tsunade

"I'm starting a school for" Tsunade began to answer Jiraiya but as she spoke she found herself looking at not just her old partner's eyes but also Hiruzens

"What?" Tsunade said to them

"You have responsibilities now," Hiruzen said to Tsunade, the man that spoke to her wasn't the Hokage, nor was he her old teacher, no he spoke to her as an old friend and elder

"You left the village because of everything you lost and you then used the girls as an excuse to run away and"

"Yet here you are, you have a responsibility not to your clan but to him as well," Hiruzen said to Tsunade, normally he would have stopped talking as in times like these saying less was more than enough but Tsuunade needed to hear what he had t say

"You and I saw the same thing, neither of them has any loyalty to the leaf and we haven't given them a reason to have it"

"Tsunade like or not you are David's wife, tell me will you force him to live in a marriage where there is no love? will you force him to be with someone that will always keep him at an arm's length or worse"

"Will you make him live a life with someone that is with him in the same room, but mentally and emotionally is so far away that they might swell be indifferent parts of the world?" Hiruzen said to Tsunade

"I never told him to" Tsunade began to protest

'Look around you, you have more than most now"

"How many people would kill just to be in your place," Hiruzen said to Tsunade as he used his hands to show her her clans territory

"Howamy women or men would love to have someone like him, someone that dis so much and carried so much despite being so young" Hiruzen should see Tsunade moving her eyes back and forth as she struggled to find a way of dealing with the situation

He knew that his student was fully aware of everything he was saying to her but, she had to start acting as what she was, David's wife, and she had to do it before the boy grew to hate the leaf for its ill-treatment of him and those around him.

"He's too young," she said to Hiruzen

"So were many others" Hiruzen countered

The two soon fell into deep silence and Jiraiya began to talk.

"I can't and I won't tell you what you have to do, that's up to you," Jiraiya said to Tsunade

Once again he was forced to watch her go to someone else and despite his feelings for her he once again was forced to accept that he could never be with her.

They both needed to move and if Jiraiya had to be honest with himself he felt more confused than everyone else.

What of Heku?

He had kept his distance from the boy despite being with him for some time, what thoughts went on inside that mind of his, did he share Davids and Mark's distrust of the Leaf?

Did he share David's desire to kill everyone, that was willing to take those closes to him, or was he like Mark that saw everyone as an annoyance, rather than Human beings?

"The two of you have responsibilities you have been ignoring," Hiruzen said to them

"...." x3

No one said anything anymore, because nothing else needed to be said and yet they knew the conversation couldn't end there

"I'll do what I can," Tsunade said to Hiruzen, who hesitated for a moment before he answered

"Shizune I expect you to help with mark, your Tsunade's assistant it makes sense that you become acquainted with Davids assistant," the Third said to Shizune who was sitting quietly apart from everyone else

"That won't!" Tsunade began to argue but she noticed that the man she was talking to wasn't her teacher, yet all traces of that man were gone now all that remained was the Hokage

"Mrk had Ana" Jiraiya pointed ou

"And he will continue to have her" the third answered him

"Mark is smart, smarter than most boys his age," Jiraiya said to the third as he tried to reach his teacher

"Which is why he will grow to accept Shizune" the third answered

"I can just leave and take everyone with me or I can just leave," Tsunade said to the Third but her words weren't even considered a threat anymore

The third left after that and then Jiraiya left, Tsunade walked into her room and for the first time in years she allowed herself to cry, everything had gotten out of hand because of what she had askedFugaku to do.

No, that wasn't true, she wanted to see Mark and David's thoughts and how they would react to things when they got out of control and she had accomplished just that.

To Mark, there wasn't any moment that he ever did have control over anything.

The fact that his dream started with him trapped inside an interrogation cell, meant that he believed himself powerless to stop any situation, the best thing he could do was figure out a way to make the worst possible outcomes not end so badly for him and David.

For David on the other hand, he felt as if he was constantly standing at the edge of everything, if he allowed himself to relax for one moment everything would and could be taken from him.

That was the reason he started his dream alone with everyone he cared about having left him and why everyone he had grown to care about either crippled or dead.

After that he had no reason to care about anything, death was the better option for him and everyone else.

Those thoughts had already been there and she had just exposed them to everyone, the fact that the third and most likely the elders had found out about them, meant that even now the boys were being kept under close watch.

Tsunade felt a warm hand on her shoulder and found Shizune holding a bottle in her hands

"Lady Tsunade, guess what we're married," Shizune said to Tsunade

 

[blueayes]

][]]][
David woke up and to his surprise it was late, it was so late that it was already noon and nobody had bothered to wake him up.

either Mark overslept too and that meant Ana had over-lept as well or someone had decided to play a prank on him.

the mansion was empty, most of the maids were gone at this hour, they usually went to visit their family in the Uchiha compound, or they would go off to either gossip or spend time with their lovers r whatever they did around this time.

He opened the door and found that nothing had changed, everything was the same and that meant someone had played a prank on him.

As he looked around he found Tsunade sitting in his usual spot.

'Hey Tsunade do you know where everyone is?" he asked her as he walked up to her

"Everyone is at school" Tsunade answered him as she patted her lap

"Okay you're going to have to tell me what you're implying because I can either sit on your lap or lay my head on it," David said to Tsunade who just chuckled

"Lay your head on my lap" Tsunade answered him

"Okay but if I do that I might fondle your boobs' David said to Tsnade as he laid his head on her lap

"I'm your wife your supposed to fondle them" Tsunade answered David

"Close your eyes," Tsunade said to David

On the other side of the porch, Mark walked out of his room and found Shizune waiting for him

"Hey, what's going on?" Mark asked Shizune who didn't answer him by using her words she just signaled to him to sit down next to her.

"Mark You are Davids assistant," Shizune said to Mark as she gently placed her hand on his head and guided Marks head to her ap

'I am Lady Tsunade's assistant" Shizune said to Mark and as Mark tried to get up, Shizune stopped him by putting a little bit more pressure on his head forcing him to stay in place

'What's going on?" Mark asked Shiune fearing her answer

"By order of the Hokage and the council of elder, you and I are to be together, as husband and wife," Shizune said to Mark as bluntly as she could

Mark didn't say anything, he didn't jump or react in any way that would have meant he had gotten hit with something he didn't expect, he just laid on Shizune's lap.

'I have Ana" he said to Shizune

"It's okay, most men have more than one wife, because of how Nin live our lives that our sons and daughters dying is so common that we need one of them to live," Shizune said to Mark but the truth was she was reminding herself of the reality of her world.

"Does David know?" Mark asked Shizune

"Lady Tsunade is telling him as we speak" Shizune answered mark

"....Shizune kiss me, I don't mean a kiss on the cheek I want a real kiss," Mark said to Shizune but Shizune couldn't bring herself to do what Mark had told her to do

"I can't, not while you still look" Shizune began but Mark stopped her as he place a finger on her lips

"I'll grow up, what's going to be your excuse then?" Mark asked her before getting up and kissing Shizune on the forehead

David listened to Tsunade, she told him about what she asked Fugaku to do and what she had seen in both his and Marks dream

David didn't say anything he just kept quiet as Tsunade spoke, then without saying a word h placed his hands on Tsunade's chest and kept them there

"tell Shizune to tell everything to Mark," David said to Tsunade, he wasn't mad about what she had confessed to him in fact he expected something like this a long time ago.

David was honestly surprised it had taken everyone this long to try and read his mind.

David left the Senju clan's territory and he jumped from roof to roof until he found a place he liked and noticed that someone had painted the heads of the Hokages that had already died.

"Hey, watcha looking at?" Anko asked David

"Nothing just trying to think," David asked the black-haired woman

"So why are you in my spot?" Anko asked the kid, she hasn't been in the leaf for a while so she has no idea who the kid is

hey there's a store that sells candy over there if you let me sit here for a while I'll buy you as much candy as you want" David said to Anko as he pointed at the store that had a lot of candy on display

Anko just smirked she could honestly just kike the kid off the roof, he looked strong enough to take both the hit and the fall but, hey she wouldn't have to pay for anything she got

So she just sat next to the kid and then laid down, it wasn't her problem if the guy saw her, why was he even looking at her, to begin with.

After a while, she heard David's voice.

"Hey I'm done," David said to Anko and Anko snorted as she woke up

"By the way do you know you snore, "David said to Anko as he looked at her

'No I dont" she answerd him

'That's what everyone says" David said to her as he jumped off the roof and walked towards the store

The man behind the counter widened his eyes as they walked into the store and he watched as David paid for everything Anko picked up.

Anko for her part just kept on graving everything she could until David told her to stop, the only reason she even bothered putting anything back was when realized David was never going to do it.

The two sat in front of the store on a wooden bench.

"Hey, you're a ninja right?" David asked Anko

"Yeah, what kind of stupid question is that" Anko answered David

'Got any advice" David said to Anko

the two of them looked at each other and Anko didn't want to deal with whatever the kid in front of her was dealing with

"Do whatever you want" she said to David as she got up and walked away
'What?' she heard David say

"That's my advice, do what you want" she answered him but didn't bother to look back, she knew that if she did she would end up getting involved in something shed rather not

"That's bad advice" Heku said toDavid

"Hey," David said to Heku who had his hands folded on his chest

'I heard about what happened. Itachi said it was the best for everyone" Heku said to David

"So why are you moping around for, this isn't you," Heku said to David

"I just needed to think" David answered Heku

'And dis you find what you were looking for?" Heku asked David

"Yeah"

"Hey, Heku are you going to enter the academy?" David asked Heku but Heku just shook his head

"No, I'm too far behind, someone is opening a school in your clan's area and I'll be going to school there"

"And before you ask, so is everyone else" Heku answered David

"let's go home," David said to Heku

"So are you going to tell me what you found out or not," Heku said to David

"All of this time the only thing I have been doing is reacting," David said to Heku

"I got married because I tried to save you and the girls"

"The only reason I even did anything, was to keep myself away from having to deal with my situation, the only reason why I even have people living in the clan's territory is that someone else placed a bunch of ideas in front of me"'

"And even now the only reason I'm here is that someone else did something" David answered Heku

"So what are you going to do now?' Heku said to David

"Nothing, I said so earlier Tsunade is here let her handle everything, right now I'm going to do what I want"

'So what do you want to do?' Heku said to David

"Hey do you think we can beat them this time," David asked Heku and the two friends realized that the sales were going to start once again

 

[blueayes]

Heku and David walked back to the Senjuclans territory and they soon found Mark sitting next to Ana.

"Heku can you tell them what I told you, I have something to do," David said to Heku

Heku watched as David walked into the mansion but this time he didn't bother talking to Mark or Ana, instead, he walked straight into his office.

Ana and Mark looked at Heku with worried expressions as Jiraiya and Shizune walked out of the room.

'Tsunade, I have something I'm going to give you"

"Let me do this while I still have the guts to do it" Everyone listened to David say to Tsunade

"What's this?" they heard Tsunade said to David

"Okay I'll say this as clearly as I can"

"If you choose to use this information, then that means that officially your clan will be one step closer to coming back"

"Now if you choose not to use it, then the only things that you have to worry about are the things that you have been dealing with," David said to Tsunade

"I'm going to leave the village, I don't know when and I don't know what will happen before I do, but I will leave" Everyone listened, and somehow the fact that Tsunade wasn't saying anything made the silence inside the office seem infinitely larger than it was.

"When we first got here, the Uchiha found a bunch of old letters, papers, and things that seemed pointless"

"Things I read"

"Some Umazaki clan members got some girls pregnant and kept those kids secret from everyone, the same goes for members of the Senju clan"

It was as if all of the air had suddenly vanished from the world, David's words could be heard by the small crowd that had already gathered and yet no one dared to say anything less they miss something important.

"My clan," Tsunade said to David

"My actions after this will depend on what you choose to do with this information, but I won't tell you what those actions are," David said to Tsunade

'Why?' Tsunade asked David

"Consider it my way of saying that I don't want us to have any secrets and my way of figuring out the kind of person you are," David said to Tsunade before walking out of the office and looking at everyone that was standing outside

'You could have kept this quiet" Jiraiya said to David as he walked past him

'Yeah I could have, but I chose not to" David answered Jiraiya neither of them bothered to look at each other

'Why?" Shizune asked David her voice trembling with fear of what Tsunade might do next

"Because even though I haven't spent any time with her, at the end of the day she is still my wife," David said to Shizune as he walked up to his friends who were gathered waiting for him

No one said anything even as the group walked deeper and deeper into the village.

"Its times like these that I forget that he's still a kid," Jiraiya said to Shizune as he opened the door to Tsunade's office and sound Tsunade looking at the handful of papers

She hadn't bothered to move a single sheet, yet despite not having bothered to move since David left her behind, SJiraiya could see Tsunades hands were white, she was holding the sheets of paper so tightly that her fingers would soon start drawing blood from the palm of her hand.

Outside of the Senju clan's territory, several Uchiha moved to deliver the news, they had to get this information to Fugaku before anyone else could find out about it.

The informants didn't bother to do any of the usual formalities, they knew full well that unless the information they had was indeed valuable then they were for feting their lives.

Fugaku and Mikoto listened to what they had to say and for the first time in years, they both began to laugh.

They laughed so hard that their stomachs began to hurt.

Despitevertihing that boy had gone through, despite all of the eyes on him, David still had several secrets he had somehow managed to keep away from everyone and was now using them.

Fugaku ordered for the informants to keep this information a secret, he wanted to see what Tsunade did, and what David was planning to do if Tsunade chose to find the lost members of her clan

He had to admit he was curious about what David would do if Tsunade chose to leave these people alone

In the hallway Itachi listened to his fathers' words as he played with Sasuke, he didn't know what David was planing but he just hoped he knew what he was doing because he had just set in motion several events that couldn't be stopped.

This wasn't the kind of information that once uncovered would remain secret for long.

 

[blueayes]

Hana smiled she knew that by now everyone else had already found out about what David had said to Tsunade and despite knowing about the existence of the pages that were in Tsunade's position they were unable to act.

What could any of them do?

Try to take the papers from Tsunade, the chances that any of them could succeed wasn't very high, no that wasn't tight, Hana was certain they would succeed but even if they did there would be so many dead that it would be pointless for them to have done so.

The council was quiet for the first time in a long time, they knew that they couldn't act, if they did they risked making an enemy of not just Tsunade but everyone around her.

David had revealed that he had something they couldn't just ignore and yet they had no choice but to do so, they were like rats looking hungrily at a piece of cheese that was being watched over by an enraged cat.

They had no choice but to wait for Tsunade to make her decision.

"Mark do you have the stick we use to play with?" David asked Mark who just looked at him and silently took out a scroll that had the stick in it.

"What are you planing?" Mark asked David as he held the stick in his hands

"This stick has everything the pictures and drawing we made when everything first started" David answered Mark and Mark's eyes widened as he realized what David was telling him

"It's too dangerous," Mark said to David as he started to walk away from David

"Let me finish," David said to Mark before turning his attention to everyone else

"Mark and I have been trying to copy Itachis seal, but we only managed to copy half of it," David said to everyone as he showed them the seal he and Mark had managed to recreate.

"What are you planing?" Sonia said to David

"If we work together and make Itachis seal again, we can learn every technique that was recorded"

"Nothing we learn inside our room will affect the outside world, but we can at the very least have every one of those techniques just in case we have to fight one day," David said to everyone

Mini looks at David and shows him the other half of the seal that everyone had worked on together.

As Mimi slowly placed her half of the seal on top of Davids, Mark placed the stick on the newly created seal and for the first time in an entire year, they all found themselves back inside the white room.

"Find them," Tsunade said to Jiraiya and Shizune who opened the door to her office and asked Mark and David's parents if they would like to do this mission or not.

And so the events began and there was no stopping them anymore.

As this was happening a woman found the White jaw's unconscious bodies and screamed in horror the moment her eyes caught sight of their unconscious bodies.

The moment word reached Tsunade she rushed to see if they were okay and soon found that there was nothing wrong with them.

Their minds, however, were lost in a world of their own making.

Tsunade listened to everyone talk amongst themselves, she heard them say how on the same day that Tsunade received word that her clan still had several surviving members, was the same day David fell unconscious.

Tsunade had to admit that they had a point, this was too much of a coincidence for it to have been an accident, however, knowing Mark and David she couldn't rule out that this could be their doing.

Tsunade was about to order someone to bring some stretchers to help carry the kids to an empty building when they all suddenly began to stand up.

She would never know that they had spent entire lifetimes together and she would never know that the moment they each opened their eyes they had forgotten about all of those lives.

'What happened?" Tsunade said to David, her words were calm yet firm

'Nothing, we just got our room back" David answered Tsunade who just looked him in the eyes before walking away from him

David watched Tsunade walk away and he felt years of experience entering his body, unfortunately, he wouldn't be able to use any of it, but at least it was there waiting for him to find it again.

 

[blueayes]

It's funny how the world works when you are growing up, your entire world is just going to school, either doing or not doing things with other people and trying not to get your parents mad at you.

Then as you grow up the world you lived in, seems to get farther and farther away until it looks like something that was nothing more than a memory someone else had.

Mark looked at the students in his class they were just kids and so was he.

Just like David he stopped for the first time in a long time and gave himself time to think.

And he found that he was a selfish person, from the outside he looked like a loyal follower, but the truth was that he was anything but that.

When everyone was taken away, he went to the only place he knew that would have so many things going on that he couldn't have the luxury to think about anything besides work.

So he did just that, he placed David in front of him and used him to not have to think, and by doing so he ignored how his actions affected everyone around him,

To him everyone else was just there, they didn't matter.

Then Ana forced her way in and he was forced to look away from David for a brief moment, and now he was forced to look away and found Shizune looking at him next to Ana.

He didn't care about her after all he didn't know anything about her and yet for the first time in a long time he found that he couldn't put anything in front of him anymore.

Then his friends that were taken away were there and the world that was once dark and alone wasn't so dark anymore.

Mark thought about his past self the actions he had taken, he thought about a lot of things including what he knew about this world and he realized they hadn't changed a single thing.

Naruto was still wearing his usual clothes, and being a menace to society.

The changes that did happen had already happened, and the changes that did occur because of them were insignificant in the great scheme of things.

Mark walked into David's room and found David awake looking at the ceiling.

He noticed that Innocentius was using his fire to keep a shadow that was coming out of Naruto away from everyone and everything.

"How many?" Mark began to ask but David stopped him before he could finish

"Every night" David answered Mark

"Sow what are you planing?" he said to David

"Nothing" David answered him

'I want the truth" Mark said to David

"I'm not planing anything, what I mean is that's my plan"

"You see the village has a balance of power, one that will slowly be affected as Tsunade bring back her clan"

"Hell its already affected, you've seen the police around here they've been running around a lot more than usual," David said to Mark who caught Flare striking at one of the shadows that was aiming for his leg

"So then why did you make us use the stick?" Mark asked David as he noticed one of the kids moving on his bed

"Its pointless to have something and not use it" David answered Mark before he completely fell asleep

So that was your plan, Mark thought to himself as he walked back to his room.

David's plan was that he didn't have a plan at all, he just let the smell of cheese fill the room, and all he had to do after that was see how many rats he could catch as they ran to get the cheese that didn't exist.

He didn't know what David was planning to do after that but wasn't that exactly what he had told Tsunade, his actions would depend on what she chose to do.

Mark couldn't help but allow himself to have a predatory grin, this was going to blow up on David's face.
