When the comforts of civilization begin to dull our senses, we must never forget that in the beginning, there was war. And war. And more war. Long before there were empires, there were humans consumed with greed and the hunger for power. Resources, territories, information—these were the forms of sustenance upon which we preyed. Today, we call such habits vices. Oh, how arrogant we have become! Are we not still impelled by those primordial emotions? Is the advent of war so far-fetched? But alas, for you to truly understand, we must dive deeper into this land’s half-forgotten past.
There was a time when might was the only law that humankind knew. Fearsome clans roamed throughout the land, seeking amenable grounds within which they could take root and opposing forces against whom they could test their mettle. Given the irregularity of nature’s bounty, certain regions appealed more than others, and dominion over such coveted territories became the spark that ignited the earliest inter-clan wars. These fierce, internecine affairs tended to conclude only when one side had decimated their competition into oblivion, and many clans of story were rendered extinct during this period.
The victors of war, having claimed their territories, often made truces with surrounding locals, offering protection in exchange for access to the yields of agriculture. Over time, certain communities emerged as more dominant than others, either due to numbers or sheer talent, and their rapid expansion would force smaller, neighboring communities to either collapse into their fold or be devastated. When the dust settled, humankind found itself divided into the five major territories that we are familiar with today. And was the bloodshed over? With our lands obtained and our bellies filled, were we finally content?

It sits to the west of the main Kazekage Complex fully funded by the shinobi Shinji himself. A memento of his mother which is constructed out of harden stone and reinforced via dense gold beams stationed to withstand up to S-rank damage to the exterior and interior of the hospital. The building itself has seven building instead of stacked flooring. Each building represents different places central to the running of a hospital. One building is for intake and outpatient resources. One building is for inpatient services. The third building is for surgery. The fourth building is for research and development. The fifth building is the morgue. The sixth building is administrative offices. The seventh and last building is the home of Shinji Uchiha.

Like a pair of shoe, the duo of Ishikawa and Naitoseba appeared in front of the Shinto Memorial Hospital, a newly founded structure funded purely by Shinji Uchiha. ‘He hired some good architects to design this building.’ Ishikawa couldn’t hope to marvel at the grand building, it made the building she had commissioned look like shit.
“Well miss this is amazing, I’m glad you trusted him enough to plan this building out. AND got damn, he must really love the village ‘cause this couldn’t have been cheap.”
“Yeah, he comes from a good family. Plus you have to remember he’s one of the first jounin of the village as well and he isn’t lazy by any means.”
The duo chatted amongst one another before they eventually made their way to the entrance of the building, the doors reacted to their appearance sliding open revealing a lightly busy lobby. There hadn’t been much going on lately so the hospital was used more for advances in sciences, instead of just a place for the sick. The kazekage was just in her usual robes, and with a snug hoodie replacing her kage hat while Nato was dressed in his usual sand jounin attire. Entering the building workers stopped and nodded to their superiors before continuing to work it wasn’t unusual for her to stroll through the town with Naitoseba. Arriving at the desk Ishikawa would speak.
“Good morning I’m here for a special occasion, Shinji should be in the building and has already started making preparations for our meeting could you summon him?”
As Ishikawa spoke the administrator quickly buzzed the shinobi, `Mr. Shinji, The Kazekage is here, she’s requesting your appearance. ` as the young woman spoke the Kazekage turned back to an associate before looking back to the door.
“Yusuke shouldn’t be far off, the Uchiha are usually pretty punctual on time.”
“I bet you’d know that miss?”
“Oh, hush Nato, it’s too early for your mess.”
As the two bickered they found a place to sit in what looked like a waiting area in the lobby, they both found a seat and took a load off.

The summoning: part 2
As he walked, Yusuke marveled at the Shinto Memorial Hospital as he stepped through the grand entrance. The lobby was spacious, with marble floors and high ceilings that made the room seem even larger. The walls were adorned with modern art pieces, and there were large windows that let in an abundance of natural light.
The reception desk was sleek and modern, with a polished wood surface and shiny silver accents. Behind the desk, a friendly receptionist greeted them with a smile and asked for their business. The air smelled of antiseptic and a faint hint of floral fragrance, and there was a soft hum of activity in the background.
As he walked further into the hospital, Yusuke could see state-of-the-art medical equipment lining the hallways. There were rooms with monitors and machines that beeped rhythmically, and he could see glimpses of doctors and nurses in blue scrubs hurrying past. The lighting was bright and sterile, but it somehow managed to feel welcoming at the same time.
The hospital had a calm and orderly atmosphere, with clear signage that made it easy to navigate. The floors were spotless, and there was a sense of efficiency and organization that permeated throughout the entire building.
Finally, at a distance Yusuke saw the bellowing figures of Ishikawa and Naitoseba, before being approached by an administrator. They were clearly waiting for someone else to arrive. The Kazekage did mention the possibility of Shinji being there. Yusuke couldn't help but wonder what the other Jinchuriki was like. He had heard stories and rumors, but had never met him in person. He wondered what kind of abilities Shinji had gained from his tailed beast, and what kind of person he was outside of his role as a Jinchuriki.
The administrator gestured Yusuke towards the waiting room lobby. Yusuke had overheard Naitoseba teasing Ishikawa about her knowledge of the Uchiha family's punctuality, and Yusuke couldn't help but grin at their banter before they helped themselves down to a seat.
"Good morning, Ishikawa-sama, Naitoseba-san," Yusuke greeted them with a bow. "I hope I didn't keep you waiting.”

The days and months since that fateful day have seemed to collide together as if I only fought myself on what I have experienced. The traumatic experience unbeknownst to Shinji was often an Uchiha destiny regardless of period or age. Some are just expected to endure. And, that is what he has done. His way of dealing was atypical of someone experiencing the deep scar within himself. He can be standing in his room looking out his window into the bright sunny view of the canyons beyond the village. The slight breeze hit his hair blowing his ponytail sideburns to the left. He breathes in deeply replaying that day sixteen years ago in the canyon. His right hand raises to his stomach where his seal is and rubs across the scar that resides on his flesh. All of it comes screaming back to his eyes as he is relieving everything from childhood into now. It flashes with a blur as his thoughts become a betrayal of his well-being. [break][break]
You are weak. [break][break]
You let them die.[break][break]
You are a coward. [break][break]
You can't even avenge us. [break][break]
Pathetic.[break][break]
His eyes lower to half open before fully closing his eyes. The image is real and he is standing now in the presence of his trauma. He then can hear his uncle laughing behind him as he turns to cut him with his kunai the laughing remains but the body becomes ethereal of Mitsuki. Shinji is now standing with his back facing his door as he does the motion in real-time as he imagined it. As the laughing continued Shinji's eyes would open as the laughing stopped. In his right hand was his kunai, and he stared at it for a moment trying to wipe the memories away. He stared at it, then his eyes gaze traveled to his left wrist. The thought crossed his mind for a moment. I can make this all stop now. If I just....Shinji gripped the handle of the kunai tightly as he swung it down toward his wrist particles started to come together grainy and appeared to be light brown sand started to pile up rather quickly into a wall blocking the exposed wrist as the kunai hit the sand being met with force causing the metal to clank off. Suddenly a ring can be heard behind him the voice of an administrator can be heard speaking. As Shinji listened to the voice his thoughts were conflicted with why can't he end it. The sand stops me everytime and I'm not telling it to. The only reason he can come up with is it's tied to the beast he has sealed within him. As the voice rang away Shinji looks out the window to overcast clouds starting to form. His soul felt tied to the weather as it seemed symbolic. The problem is this was a brewing internal battle. Shinji's ways of coping are much more outward in appearance so only one other person knows how he is feeling and even Shinji himself doesn't realize it yet.
[break][break]
`Mr. Shinji, The Kazekage is here, she’s requesting your appearance. ` [break][break]
The buzzer clicked off as Shinji looked at the sand, as it started to dissipate from view, he would sigh before placing the kunai back into his shinobi sachet pocket and turning to the intercom in his room, he rest his right hand down onto the terminal as a buzz noise feed can be heard clicking in before going away. His voice was a smooth deep crescendo. [break][break]
"Yes, I shall be there shortly." [break][break]
Shinji released the intercom and started to walk toward the exit of his apartment in building seven, you can see Shinji dressed in black shorts, and a black muscle shirt along with black sandals that wrap around the ankles. This isn't a formal mission so Shinji always opts for comfort. His ponytails swayed as he walked out the door and stood in front of his building for a moment. He didn't wanna keep them waiting for long so he started a speed walk toward the building. It wouldn't take long for Shinji to get there, it was merely not even two hundred feet away. As Shinji approached the front of the hospital he entered the doors behind Ishikawa, Naitoseba, and this fellow he has never seen before. His black irises focused on the newcomer but as he studied the new guy he could see he favored an Uchiha but his hair was not like his or his brethren from back home. Either way, it did not matter much to Shinji if he was an Uchiha or not. He would speak finally after the doors closed.
[break][break]
"Well, welcome to Shinto Memorial Hospital, Ishikawa-Sama and Naitoseba-Sama. And, well I don't know you what is your name?"
[break][break]
He was looking toward the young man whom he would not know is older than him. Shinji's face was stoic after speaking as he awaited an answer, he extended his hand out to the young man waiting for his response before speaking again. He was a little undressed maybe for the occasion if it is a serious one, as Shinji himself indulges in the potent ganja from Konohagakure despite not smoking before this meeting because it was a meeting with the Kazekage as well. And, Shinji can be respectful. Deep inside himself, his tailed beast remains asleep and unresponsive.
Just as Ishikawa thought Yusuke hadn’t been far behind them after they entered the hospital, the young man arrived dressed for the occasion. ‘It’s always good to have punctual shinobi’s.’ She’d thought as the Uchiha approached the waiting area, once he arrived, she would properly greet him with a head nod while Nato followed suit.
“Welcome Yusuke, I’m happy you made it on time today!”
Just as Ishikawa greeted Yusuke his fellow Uchiha had also made his appearance, Shinji had arrived as well looking a little tired if she could give it a name. Before she could speak Naitoseba stepped forward as Shinji introduced himself to Yusuke, he would reach out grabbing the man by both his shoulders with a tight grip. Coincidently, Naitoseba is one of the few shinobi’s who can ‘touch’ Shinji because of his specialization in Taijutsu. Many years ago, Naitoseba was the one who actually pulled Shinji out of a situation that could’ve left the world without the young Uchiha. So, from that day, he’s shared a fairly manageable bond with the soldier considering Shinji’s Introverted nature.
“Still having trouble sleeping Shinji? I told ya come train with me.. It’s all that Ninjutsu, I’m sure I can work all that extra energy off. This is Yusuke, today you two will become two in the same.”
Without budging while the sand continued to converge on his hand the elder jounin would offer his usual boastful smile.
“Nato, why are you always bothering Shinji, you know he hates to be touched.”
Ishikawa would let out a slight sigh, ‘boys will be boys I guess.’ She thought as she made her way a little past Shinji and Naitoseba.
“But anyways, can we get this show on the road? I assume you got my memo I sent out yesterday, Shinji, were you able to make the proper preparations for us?”
The Kazekage would take another few steps forward causing Nato to finally release his grip on Shinji to move by his Kage’s side.
“We’ve got a long morning ahead of us, And shinji. I forgot to mention I’ll ask you to have your best medical team assist us after we’re done with the process.”

The summoning: part 2
Yusuke returned Ishikawa's greeting with a small bow of his head, then turned his attention to Shinji as he entered the room. He studied the other Uchiha with interest, noting the relaxed way he carried himself despite his obvious fatigue.
When Naitoseba stepped forward to introduce the two of them, Yusuke greeted him with a polite nod before turning his attention back to Shinji. He couldn't help but notice Nato grabbing Shinji on the shoulder, causing the sand near his hands to start dissipating. It was a subtle display of control, one that spoke volumes about Naitoseba’s confidence and ability.
As he watched the sand dissipate, Yusuke's thoughts drifted. He knew that he had much to learn about Shinji, and he was eager to see what the day would bring.
"Nice to meet you, Shinji. I'm Yusuke” he replied, grinning widely. "I hear you're quite the accomplished shinobi.” He watched as Shinji studied him in return, likely trying to discern his abilities and strengths. He didn't know much about Shinji beyond his reputation, but he respected the other Uchiha's skill and dedication to their village. As Ishikawa and Naitoseba continued their banter, Yusuke listened attentively, taking in their dynamic with interest.
When Ishikawa brought up the reason for their meeting and proceeding forward with it, Yusuke nodded in agreement.

As Shinji had his right hand extended for a handshake with Yusuke the first Uchiha he had met that was new to him in a very long time suddenly Naitoseba appeared to f grabbing both of Shinji's shoulders with a death grip as the sand started to form around the hands of Naitoseba slowly. Shinji's annoyance at being touched was never displayed on his face because it happened very fast, which is a testament to Naitoseba taijutsu ability and quick speed even out of combat. Shinji would appear motionless but still seem tired. Make no mistake Naitoseba has a fond place in Shinji's heart for helping save his life so many years ago. Shinji merely looks at Naitoseba as he begins to speak. [break][break] “Still having trouble sleeping Shinji? I told ya come train with me.. It’s all that Ninjutsu, I’m sure I can work all that extra energy off. This is Yusuke, today you two will become two in the same.” [break][break] Naitoseba offers a boastful smile toward Shinji but before he could even get the words out about training Taijutsu and ninjutsu not really being the reason he is tired despite not wanting to really be forthcoming with the why and his feelings outright the Shodiame Kazekage Ishikawa would cut into the conversation causing Shinji to look at her. [break][break] “Nato, why are you always bothering Shinji, you know he hates to be touched.” [break][break] Ishikawa would let out a sigh not too long after the comment which was posed as a statement and not really a question. The Kazekage would walk past both him and Naitoseba as Shinji would look over at Yusuke who has not taken his hand for a shake. This caused Shinji to just retract his hand and glare at Yusuke with his cold eyes which Shinji doesn't do intentionally he just has a cold demeanor underneath all of the shit he had gone through in life as a person, let alone a Shinobi. [break][break] "Nice to meet you, Shinji. I'm Yusuke” [break][break] Shinji saw him grin as he still studied the Uchiha and found himself trying to compare the Uchiha himself to what he knows of Uchiha coming to the temporary conclusion he is not the typical Uchiha that Shinji is used to dealing with. He would notice Yusuke grin widely as he spoke again. [break][break] "I hear you're quite the accomplished shinobi.” [break][break] Shinji facial expression is still stone as he would look at Yosuke before speaking clearly and with conviction in his words, this would be the first time that even Ishikawa and Naitoseba would hear this come from Shinji's mouth despite everything that Shinji has done since arriving in Sunagakure so many years ago. Would it shock them? Maybe? Maybe not? [break][break] "I'd not say that about myself. But, thanks for the praise. I would say it's not true." [break][break] Shinji flat out could hear the voices in his head again from earlier this morning ringing in his ears. He agreed with the sediment for the most part because Shinji saw things that he shouldn't have had to see. Shinji's scars run deeper than the ones across his stomach. These scars are wounds of the heart and they never heal. They just grow scar tissue further causing Shinji to retreat within himself as he gets older for a variety of reasons unknown to even himself. Shinji's eyes would look away and toward the Kazekage as she would start speaking now causing Shinji's focus to shift. Naitoseba would release his hands off Shinji's shoulders now stepping to the side of Ishikawa. [break][break] “But anyways, can we get this show on the road? I assume you got my memo I sent out yesterday, Shinji, were you able to make the proper preparations for us?” [break][break] Shinji would nod toward Ishikawa to affirm that he got the memo and everything is properly prepared. Shinji would then turn toward the Kazekage and listen as she speaks some more waiting for her to finish before speaking. [break][break] “We’ve got a long morning ahead of us, And Shinji. I forgot to mention I’ll ask you to have your best medical team assist us after we’re done with the process.” [break][break] "I have everything prepared and ready. This will be taking place in the fourth building which is our research and development building. A building constructed for all top-secret situations and is the best place for this kind of endeavor. As for the medical team, no worries. A simple call is all that is needed for the best medical team to be available. No offense to you Yusuke but Kazekage we would have to do something about Yusuke being privy to seeing the in and outs of the research area after all is said and done. Very sensitive information behind those doors and could be trouble if it gets out to the wrong people. I am sure you understand?" [break][break] Shinji would stand looking at the Kazekage as the doors in front of them are the way into the facility and a much faster way to the buildings in the back where this would take place. This is not his call, but the village's secrets are also important to Shinji.
“Thank you Shinji for getting everything in line, and I appreciate this building I’m sure the villagers will all appreciate what you’ve done for us.”
The Kazekage followed along the dimly lit path accompanied by a small but elite group of shinobi, today was a big day for her along with the village. The day that she sealed Shinji’s tailed beast away she never disclosed exactly what she did to save him, and at this point, she wasn’t exactly sure if it was the correct choice. ‘He hasn’t got it yet I guess.’ She’d thought as they made their way through the corridors of the building, despite its appearance its size was vast. After a period of walking the group found themselves entering a courtyard, with a singular large door in the back of it.
“Well Shinji, I don’t think we will have to worry about any information being exposed that he won’t have access to if he makes it out of this alive. You see, Nato was referring to you two becoming one in the same was a true statement that you’ll come to believe.”
Continuing to push through the courtyard towards the door the Kazekage couldn’t hope but to start disclosing a little more of the logistics behind what was happening today.
“You see all them years ago, when we saved you from your uncle I don’t know what he’d done to you but your life was pretty much expiring. I didn’t have a lot of options in order to save you because I’m not a skilled medic, the medic team worked furiously to save your life before I intervened but it couldn’t be hoped. At the foundation of all of the hidden villages, there was a man who bestowed multiple-tailed beasts upon each village in order to enforce peace.”
As she spoke she arrived at the door, it had one of the bio scanners Shinji spoke about earlier she would carefully place her hand over the sensor allowing it to read her palm. `accepted.` the machine would voice its approval as the doors slid open revealing a fairly large room, there wasn’t a lot of equipment or anything of true value that could be destroyed.
“Perfect.”
She would say as she advanced into the room.
“He told us that we would need to learn to work with them in order to protect our peace…. Sounds mysterious right? But that’s not the worst part he gave us a half-finished seal, which was recently perfected by the Raikage. Shinji if you don’t get where this story is going maybe this will help.”
The Kazekage would make her way toward the center of the room moving away from the group of men, her hands would begin to move through handseals. Nato would make his way to the nearest seat to watch the show, he would sit about 15 meters away from Ishikawa.
“Yusuke has been selected to become the second jinchuriki of the sand. The day your life was saved you became the first host to the Ichibi, after today you all will be brothers.”
As she spoke, she finished a couple of seals before kneeling to press her palm on the ground. A large cloud of smoke would appear causing her position to shift slightly as she topped a large jar labeled Shichibi.
“I’m sorry about the sleepless night Shinji, hopefully, today might provide a little clarity. But for now Yusuke I need you to empty out your chakra reserves the best way you can, it doesn’t matter how this room should be able to take it but we need you to barely have enough chakra to think.”
The Kazekage gained a seated position atop the jar while she waited for the boy’s to get things together.

The summoning: part 2
Yusuke’s observed Shinji's reaction to the touch, noticing the subtle shift in his demeanor. It was clear that Shinji did not appreciate being touched, but he remained stoic.
As Ishikawa explained the situation and led them through the corridors of the building, Yusuke listened intently, trying to absorb as much information as possible.
When they arrived at the door with the bio scanner, Yusuke watched as Ishikawa placed her hand over the sensor and the doors slid open. He stepped inside, taking in the sparse room. Meanwhile, Shinji watched from the sidelines, his expression unreadable.
Yusuke couldn't help but smile, impressed by Shinji's professionalism and dedication to keeping the village's secrets secure. He knew the importance of protecting sensitive information, especially when it comes to the security of their people.
Of course, I understand completely, Shinji. I wouldn't want to compromise the village's security in any way. I trust that you have everything under control, and I'm here to cooperate with whatever measures you need to take. Your thoroughness only adds to your reputation as an accomplished shinobi, despite your modesty
Yusuke knew it wasn't the time or place to pry into the secrets of the village. His primary concern was the task at hand and supporting the Kazekage in her mission. “Please, lead the way, Shinji. I'm eager to assist you and the Kazekage in whatever capacity I can”.
As the discussion continued about becoming brothers with Shinji and combining their powers, Yusuke couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. The concept seemed almost too convenient, as if they were being pushed together by some unseen force.
Though they shared the same bloodline, Yusuke couldn't help but notice the stark differences between himself and Shinji. The two of them had grown up in different environments, and their individual experiences had shaped them into distinct individuals. The idea of suddenly becoming brothers and merging their powers as one felt forced and dubious, to say the least.
Yusuke had always been fascinated by the idea of modernism and innovation, rather than clinging to the traditions that had shaped the world of Uchiha for centuries.
Yusuke knew that he couldn't let his personal feelings get in the way of the task at hand. When Ishikawa asked him to drain his chakra, he hesitated for a moment, wondering if this was the right path to take. But ultimately, he decided to trust the process. He turned to Ishikawa, his voice tinged with concern. "Are you sure these walls are strong enough? he asked, worried that the procedure could have unintended consequences, especially in a hospital.
In his mind, Yusuke couldn't help but question the entire situation. Was this the right choice? Were they moving too fast, attempting to forge a bond that might not be sustainable? He knew that he needed to trust the judgment of those around him and see the process through.Would it not be easier to use some sort of Chakra Draining Technique on me? Or perhaps is there any way we can make this more interesting than me relentlessly draining my own chakra? Yusuke thought. It seems wasteful” Yusuke pondered aloud.
Reluctantly, before he began to deplete his chakra reserve, he wanted to ensure the safety of those around him as he knew the technique he was about to use was a formidable one.
"Everyone, please step back, Yusuke warned.” I don't want anyone to get caught in the crossfire." Immediately after warning, Yusuke weaved the hand signs and took a deep breath, focusing his chakra through his lungs. Once he felt that everyone was at a safe distance, Yusuke aimed carefully at an empty wall, making sure that the powerful stream of fire would evade his companions. With a final breath, he unleashed the Katon: Dai Endan, a fierce torrent of flames erupting from his mouth and colliding with the wall.
The heat was intense, and the sound of the roaring fire filled the room as the wall began to char and crumble under the force of the attack. Despite the impressive display, the walls held firm, a testament to their construction and the precautions that had been taken to ensure the safety of everyone involved. As the flames finally subsided, his chakra reserves nearly depleted. He had given everything he had, and for as long as he could; the exhaustion washing over him. "I hope that this will be enough.”

“Thank you Shinji for getting everything in line, and I appreciate this building I’m sure the villagers will all appreciate what you’ve done for us.”
[break][break] The words of Ishikawa were far too kind. At least in Shinji's eyes, he was doing what he felt was best for the village and his home. Nothing that he needs to be thanked for. If anything he needs to be thanking her. But, that's another entire matter unto itself. Shinji remained silent not out of disrespect or respect it was as if Shinji had nothing to say on the matter. He was just walking alongside Nato with Yusuke on the other side of the Kazekage as they all were in a brisk stroll Shinji didn't have to look ahead as he looked at Ishikawa's face trying to read her expressions. Coming up within view though of our party was a courtyard that connected all of the buildings as it was pretty much built like a promenade with the sand of their village stone constructs as their oasis. At the back of the massive courtyard was a singular large door.
[break][break] “Well Shinji, I don’t think we will have to worry about any information being exposed that he won’t have access to if he makes it out of this alive. You see, Nato was referring to you two becoming one and the same was a true statement that you’ll come to believe.”
[break][break] Shinji was not in a position to question the Kazekage but he isn't above doing so. This is a serious matter to consider but he nods in her direction as they keep walking with Shinji shoving his hands rather casually into his short pockets as they kept walking. He would stay looking at her and respond in time to what she said.
[break][break] "I see Ma'am."
[break][break] It was around this time that Yusuke spoke up as Shinji looks over at the Uchiha, who is trying to become accustomed to the way the Uchiha is speaking. It's not dripping with insincerity but it was sort of offputting to Shinji.
[break][break] "Of course, I understand completely, Shinji. I wouldn't want to compromise the village's security in any way. I trust that you have everything under control, and I'm here to cooperate with whatever measures you need to take. Your thoroughness only adds to your reputation as an accomplished shinobi, despite your modesty."
[break][break] Shinji looked at Yusuke for a moment wondering what he would say next. In a lot of ways, he can respect and even admire Uchiha's positive attitude about everything. He differed from himself that Shinji could be positive but he has seen a lot of darkness at a very young age. Shinji could be considered rough around the edges as Shinji just nodded at Yusuke. Shinji was very natural at holding his cards to his chest and carried a very advanced poker face. He would not let his feelings paint his face unless they called for it.

“You see all them years ago, when we saved you from your uncle I don’t know what he’d done to you but your life was pretty much expiring. I didn’t have a lot of options in order to save you because I’m not a skilled medic, the medic team worked furiously to save your life before I intervened but it couldn’t be hoped. At the foundation of all of the hidden villages, there was a man who bestowed multiple-tailed beasts upon each village in order to enforce peace.”
[break][break] Shinji memories of that day aren't faint whatsoever, at least leading up to the events she is referring to. Shinji's face remained stoic despite inside he didn't miss his Uncle. In fact, he wishes it was he who had taken his life for what he has done. Shinji's tied pony sideburns swayed with the step he took through the courtyard turning his face to look forward. There was one person he could still take revenge on. For a brief moment in his black eyes, all he could see was his face. It was a brief moment but Shinji's features broke and you can see the rage in his eyes. The fire burning in his soul and he for a moment didn't care what the Kazekage would have felt bout it or anyone for that matter. That day plays back through his dreams and he lives it every day like it's one big horrible Genjutsu that can never be dispelled. His brief moment is then covered back up as he knew that day will come. The day he will confront him about the truth. They arrived at the door with the hand scanner Shinji was deep within his thoughts and feelings when the sound of the voice from the scanner broke his thought process. Shinji would look up as the doors slide open to reveal a huge open room.
[break][break] “Please, lead the way, Shinji. I'm eager to assist you and the Kazekage in whatever capacity I can”.
[break][break] Shinji was also brought back to reality and had to really process what Kazekage was really saying, she said a man bestowed upon every village-tailed beast to keep the peace. Shinji's quick intellect was able to deduce quickly that means every village likely knows this about each other. This was surprising news that Shinji really didn't know or wasn't privy to until today. Konohagakure has their own beast as well I see. This caused Shinji's mind to travel back to the lingering questions he now had.
[break][break] “Perfect.”
[break][break] They would all enter the large room as it's somewhere Shinji has been before but these questions Shinji has now are starting to mound quickly. Shinji even if he wanted to get the words out now to ask the question would soon have a new revelation revealed to him that would further cause the thirst for knowledge and understanding to salivate from within creeping from his mental synapses.
[break][break] “He told us that we would need to learn to work with them in order to protect our peace…. Sounds mysterious right? But that’s not the worst part he gave us a half-finished seal, which was recently perfected by the Raikage. Shinji if you don’t get where this story is going maybe this will help.”
[break][break] Shinji watched as the Kazekage started to depart from the group and make her way to the middle of the room. Shinji could also see Nato make his way away from the group bout fifteen meters away as Ishikawa started to weave hand seals seamlessly with no lack of hand speed.
[break][break] “Yusuke has been selected to become the second Jinchuriki of the sand. The day your life was saved you became the first host to the Ichibi, after today you all will be brothers.”
[break][break] The word brothers put Shinji off due to his past with his own brothers and Shinji couldn't believe this was happening. The Kazekage is doing what is best for the village and Shinji had no choice but to respect it. But it was clear even to Shinji that he and Yusuke are the farthest from brothers regardless of bloodline or both being Jinchuriki. Shinji removed his hands from his pocket looking over at Yusuke with a stoic stare before looking back toward Ishikawa wondering if she knew what she was really doing there. Toward the end of her sentence she would finish her seals placing her hands on the ground a cloud of smoke appeared from the ground wafting toward the ceiling and naturally clearing away as the Kazekage position shifted slightly she topped a large jar labeled Shichibi.
[break][break] “I’m sorry about the sleepless night Shinji, hopefully, today might provide a little clarity. But for now Yusuke I need you to empty out your chakra reserves the best way you can, it doesn’t matter how this room should be able to take it but we need you to barely have enough chakra to think.”
[break][break] Shinji was at a loss for words because he had so many questions, so many feelings, and so much to shift through upon multiple layers as he would observe the Kazekage now in a seated position atop the jar. The revelations shook Shinji to his core. He would look over at Nato and then at Yusuke as he then began to speak himself with obvious worry in his voice.
[break][break] "Are you sure these walls are strong enough?"
[break][break] Shinji had no worry about the damage incurred to the walls of this place. He would glance at Yusuke as Shinji would hear the warning come from Yusuke, which caused Shinji to hop back in a sliding motion stopped at fifteen meters away from Yusuke position ending up three meters to the right of where Nato was sitting. Geez, and she said she wants this to be my brother. The jutsu fires off a Katon blast from his mouth as it slams into the wall of the room absorbing the force with ease and not melting, but beginning to char and crumble as pieces of the wall fall to the ground making a loud noise of rumbling.
