25 The Uni

That was really strange....Madara told Hashirama and Tobirama about our pseudo 'brother-sister' relationship and..... I was summoned into the Hokage office around 5 in the evening.

*Flashback*

{Malika! Could you please come here?} Hashirama's nervous and shaky voice resounded in my mind.

{Hey! What happened?!} I asked in panic. What the h.e.l.l made him so nervous?! Some kind of monster is approaching? Other nations started to move already?! Could it be that f.u.kushū came back?! No, wait, I can't sense his presence...

{Just come here as fast as you can, please!}

I couldn't take the tension anymore and teleported there.

When I appeared inside, all of the ANBU were out and Hashirama's face was really dark. Tobirama was looking into the window with a poker face; however, his aura was too bright for something that made foolish Hashirama so serious.

I quickly put up a soundproof barrier and come closer to the desk.

"Hashirama, what happened?" I asked with worry. He lifted his head.

"Malik....." and froze. Tobirama also turned his head and took a look at us. I didn't see his face because of the setting sun obstructing my view, but his aura became a little confusing...

"Malika, what were you doing before you came here?" He asked a little, concerned?

"I was training. Madara called me on their tournament, so I didn't finish my training during the morning." I answered really puzzled. "What's wrong? You have seen my training clothes a lot and I don't think they are inappropriate." My training clothes was a set of long, chinese top and wide, blackish-purple pants. Underneath I had a full body chainmail and on one of my legs a bag with shurikens was tide. All that was actually showing were my hands, neck and face... well my toes were exposed as well, since the sandal's design was made that way.

"I'm not talking about the clothes. Can you please tell me," he pointed at my arms, legs and waist," how many kilos are you wearing right now?"

'Killos? AAAHH! That's right!' I usually conceal my weights so that they won't attract any attention, but today I made them visible since I was adding some weight and it is much simpler to make the whole set invisible than concealing them one after the other. I'm a little lazy~

Right now my arms were covered in weights till the elbows. On my waist a thick and wide ring was placed and my legs were also covered up to the knees. I would like to make them less volume taking, but usually don't have time. Sure, I could just make them appear the way I wanted with a snap of my fingers, but I want to produce something that other villagers will be able to replicate.

" Well right now I have around 35 kilos on each arm, 40 on my waist and 35 on each leg." I answered casually, earning a sigh from both of them.

"And it was only a few years back that you told us that your body isn't as strong as ours..." Tobirama murmured something really softly. I couldn't make out what it was though.

"Back to the topic! Hashirama, what is happening?! You sounded so anxious through the telepathy, yet now you have time to chat about something as insignificant as my weights!"

Hearing my words, Hashirama suddenly froze and a shipish laughter exited his mouth. He scratched the back of his head and answered with a wryly smile.

"Hehehe... Well you see.... I just kind of wanted to know... well..." He trailed off. What made him so anxious?!

"He wanted to know if you see him as your brother." Tobirama spilled the beans and made my mind go blank.

"Eh?"

"Madara told us about that and well we..."

"You."

"I wanted to know if we are considered as your brothers as well?"

Hashirama admitted and my legs gave out. I sat on the ground with a blank expression.

"Are you all right?" Tobirama came up to with a smile and helped me to get up, well he wanted to help. When he took my hand and pulled the weight of 190 kilos + my own, made it a tad bit difficult. In fact, it was difficult for me as well. I added 15 more kgs on to each place and was now getting used to the increase of the difficulty. I reinforced my body a little and stood up.

"Hashirama, don't scare me like that, next time... And yes, I do see you and Tobirama as family, well if you are against it.... I may just use a spell and make myself think of you as normal friends, I guess." I told them with a smile, but the last part made my heart twitch a little.

Silence filled the room for a few moments before Hashirama abruptly stood up and made his way in my direction. His expression was unreadable and his aura was so confusing. I couldn't read the emotions at all. He stopped right before me.

"Hashir"

"I'm so happy! I have a little sister!" A sudden, strong, bone-crushing hug, blissful expression and loud voice, completely caught me of guard.

"Tobirama! We now have a little sister! Hey can you call me 'Nii-chan'?! That blue brother of mine only calls me 'elder brother'. Please!"

"Nii-san...."

"No! Call me 'Nii-chan'!" I swear. if ANBU were to hear any of that, they will probably loose all of the faith in this fellow...

"I can't. It's embarra.s.sing."

"Please?" He made a pleading face. It was getting seriously annoying and a thick tick mark appeared on my face.

"Can you please let go off of me, 'ELDER BROTHER'! "

Hashirama was returned into the world of darkness. Let him be your guest for a little longer this time.~

Well in the end, we settled on 'Nii-san' and Hokage-sama in front of others. He didn't like it though.

*End of a flushback that became a little too long*

Well it was yesterday. Right now I was waiting for our 50 special candidats. The time was ticking and slowly approached the announced hour. I was waiting for them for 3 hours though. Nightmares were getting more and more vivid with every pa.s.sing night. They started to include smells, texture and even my every feeling at that time.

"Oh, you are here! Good morning, everyone!" I greeted them. Madara was the one who was leading them.

"Well now, please follow me inside. Be careful not to touch things before I told you that it was alright. You might get caught in a very nasty trap." I warned them and they became really vigilant

As we entered the building, all of them, including Madara, were looking around with great curiosity. First, we entered into the lobby. It was also made as a reception where the civilians could file a complain or ask for help. It had a receptionist desk with a chair, shelfs and some equipment needed for that kind of work. There were also some sits and flowers in the room. The walls were painted into light lemon colour and the ceiling was spotless white.

We moved on and were now pa.s.sing through the long and wide corridor. Many doors were left behind and I could see a burning curiosity in their eyes.

"You are free to look around as much as you want after we will finish with your matter." I told them with an amused smile. The faces of some of them turned a little pinkish and they turned away. The girl from yesterday that managed to pa.s.s was the most restless one and I had to send a light glare in her direction so that she would regain her composure.

We reached the middle of the corridor and entered into a small room. It was painted with a light shade of blue and was completely empty. I walked inside and stopped almost in the middle.

"Well, now, there is first procedure we must do, before we reach the our destination. Everyone, come to me one by one and stand in this circle." A circle made out of light appeared right besides me. Madara was the first one to do as I said and disappeared from our sight.

"Now, all of you do the same!" I commanded, ignoring the tension that filled the air.

All of them reluctantly followed and were disappearing one by one. Lastly, I also stepped inside the circle and was teleported in front of the metalic, ma.s.sive gates that had some devices installed in them.

I told everyone present to touch the gate and they obeyed. When the person would touch the surface, many scanners of different purposes took their data. As soon as all of us were recorded, the gates opened revealing a small hall and a another wide corridor. Everything here was white and I installed electrical lamps, well they were working by consuming chakra from the air so no electricity was used.

I led everyone into the farmost room that was the a.s.sembly office.

"Good! Now that we are here, let us explain where you are right now." Madara and I told them about the special unit of the Konohagakure that will operates from the shadows and undercover and about other things that are meant to be know by them.

"Now that you know, I would like to hear your questions, if you have any."

A quite a few hands were raisen and I picked the first one. It was the young teen of 15-16 yours old.

"What were those things before we got here?"

"You mean those lights and the circle?" He nodded. "Those were different scanners, verification devices and the portal. " I could see that they got absolutely nothing so I had to elaborate. " This unit 'Hogosha' (Madara named it. It means 'the guardian') is an absolute secret that only the Hokage and a very few other people will ever know about. The portal that transported all of you here, will only work on those who are part of the 'Hogosha' unit. Different scanners recorded all of the data about your body. Chakra signature, pulse rate when you are calm, mental state, even some of your memories. All of that will prevent any kind of intruders. Everytime one of you will go through them, your body will be scanned again and if by chance, you were under the Genjutsu, poisoned, had a bug on you or were manipulated, you will be immediately teleported to another place where you will be taken care of, depending on the situation. Did this answer you question?"

The teenager nodded his head and another hand was raised.

"How will those 'devices know that we are part of the unit and how will you be preventing us from speaking and giving out the information?" A middle aged man enquared.

"Another good question! Madarnii-san will show you." Izuna's face twitched a little at the way I addressed his brother. He didn't like it from what amused Madara told me through the telepathy.

Madara made a few hand signs and a small seal was now hovering in the air. It was developed by me and Tobirama using the runes from my world and Fujitsu from this one.

"This will be the seal that will be put on all of you. It will prevent you from speaking about the existence of this unit and if by chance, you were caught by the enemy or died during the mission, the seal will get activated and you will die. Your body will be destroyed on the spot and not even ashes would remain." Madara explained to them.

Their faces turned really serious. I know that this might be a little cruel, limiting one's freedom and even destroying their bodies after their deaths, but this has to be done. Even from a dead person, a lot of information can be gathered.

"If any of you want to leave, you are free to do so. You will not be punished or harmed. I will erase your memories regarding this place and any kind of information you got about it." I told them. We don't want people to be forced into this kind of things. Only those who are loyal and are willing to put their lives on the line for this village can stay here.

None stood up from their sits, nor raised their hands. Finally, Izuna looked at me and Madara with resolute eyes and came to us.

"It is a great honor to be in this kind of unit. Nii-san, can you place the seal on me?"

Madara smiled with great pride and placed the seal on Izuna's forehead. As soon as the seal was on place, it slowly was absorbed into the body, not leaving a trace behind.

Everyone else following his example, came one by one to Madara and me for the seal.

This took a few minutes and finally everything was finished.

"We pledge our loyalty to this village and will put everything on the line in order to protect it in the future!" All of them declared in unison.

"Alright! You are all dismissed! You can leave this place at any time you want by using the portal in the hall!" All of them looked a t me in confusion.

"You wanted to explore this building and since your job will be literally connected to every secret of the village, you must at least know the layout of this place right? There is a map in the hall which can be only be comprehended by those who have the seal on. It looks like a painting to everyone else. Study it well, for it has every trap and dangers written there."

The glint in their eyes made even Madara, with his dark, stern face, look a little childish. Looks like, even though he was the designer, he was still very curious about this place.

I waved them a goodbye and left through the portal. I didn't mention it to them, but this place was surrounded by a lot of very powerful barriers that prevented even me from teleporting. I made it like that so others won't be able to get in. Barriers to prevent ghosts, matterless ent.i.ties, forcefully attacks and other, were placed all over the 'Hogosha' headquarters. The disappearance of f.u.kushū was still on my mind. It is impossible to move away so much in that short amount of time. That being, that wants to bring Kaguya back, most probably had the ability, so I made some preparations~

The rest of the day I spend training and building ANBU headquarters. I must say, Tobirama can think of and make a lot of things if he is serious about them. Speaking of which, he was experimenting on something and didn't want to show me, unless it was finished. Well, ok? I'll be waiting for his new inventions then!
