Alessia was back visiting to her home nation and visiting her brother’s grave on the beach. Even after three years she still couldn’t bring herself to tell her family she wasn’t able to save him. She sighed placing the flowers down on to the ground knowing that if she was there just five minutes before she could have stopped the ninja who attack. Of course Yuuki knew that everything would be different as much as she had changed she could feel people still not trust her. It was beside the point she headed through the gates still holding some flowers. She smiled a little as she remember her childhood torturing half the village and the days at the cloud ninja academy. It was now the spark of curiosity wondering if anyone was still around from her days here. It had been 3 years since she was in the village walking these streets as a normal person. Of course she had a change in headbands and was married to the one person in the world who under stood her. She smiled as a little girl came up to her and asked her about the flowers in her hands. Alessia handed them to the child and watched her run off into the distance. The gates themselves showed her that things had changed in time she was becoming a great ninja and stronger than she was before. She learned two different styles of chakra nature and well her mind was settled. The kunoichi headed for the training grounds where she had fought against the INTEL commander in a training that she’d never forget. With all of that she would have been an INTEL ninja by now. Only Alessia felt her decision was a good one. Footsteps could be heard in the background she grabbed her sword as she was a bit on the edge of things.

Kuro walked through the village enjoying the day. He lifted a hand to his brimming goatee. He was still unused to the facial hair, but Bee had said it would suit him, and Maria simply loved it so he had decided to give it a chance. As he walked several people gave him a nod, which made him blush the surplus attention for his deeds in the war still hadn’t worn off, and it made him feel unworthy of such attention. All I did was fight by Bee’s side it is after all my job. He walked before he noticed a splash of blonde in his line of sight. He instantly noticed who it was and a cold shot was sent through his body. It was Yuuki Alessia the woman he had fought side by side with against Sasuke and what had happened she’d joined him. It made his blood boil he had asked her to join Intel and she had turned her back on the village. Kuro wasn’t one to show his emotions, but now he wore a stern look of disappointment. He didn’t know how Bee felt about the Ninja who tried to capture him being welcomed back to his village with open arms, but whatever that was the Leaf’s problem. I need to ask what Roronora thinks about that. He said as he walked towards Yuuki. He wasn’t looked to be noticed, but if she did what will be will be.

The young ninja had a lot of memories of her home and she knew people still disliked her and it was nothing she could do. She knew her life was always on the line to because assassins felt that because of who she was they needed to end her life. She heard the footsteps and turned around seeing a familiar face. Kuro the person who gave her a chance and she left without a trace. Ali bit her lip looking at him knowing that he probably hated her for it all. “Kuro…” She began knowing the look on his face, she kept her sword next to her but did not want to fight him. The kunoichi stood where she was letting him come near her. She hoped that he could hear her out about why she left, why she went to Sasuke things were pretty good for her when she left and it still became better. “Kuro… I am sorry for everything. I am sorry for abandoning the village you and everyone. But I did it for something else.” Alessia spoke hastily attempting to apologize to him as much as she could. It was a slim chance he would forgive her and she knew what she did was wrong but it was for love. The love she had was strong and crazy the one thing she couldn’t trade for the world. “I know its been awhile since I set a foot here and I came to really apologize to the ones I’ve hurt… even my family hates me… well more than they did when I was here. I can’t say I would change my decision for the world but I want to try to make things better now.” Alessia spoke with a bit of confidence in her voice she truly came back to rebuild things.

Kuro looked at Alessia as she turned to face him. He looked her over that severe look on his face. He scowled as she spoke his name in such a pleading manner. He looked at her as her hand strayed to her sword. “You come to start a fight with me and betray your village once again?” He said crossing his arms. She launched into some tirade about her love for the Nukenin bastard. He had stuck his neck out for her, and then she turned her back on him. He had gone to her home to give her the good news, and he found she had disappeared. “You know what your betrayal said to me and everyone else in Intel.” He said filling the word betrayal with as much venom as possible. “Your actions made the rest of Intel look bad, our reputation was drugged through the mud for your love!” How selfish she was. His eyes burned into her. He tried to feel something for the blonde Kunoichi, but his anger overwhelmed any sense of pity he had for her. “I hope your love was worth the death of our Kages and your brother.” He said walking past her.

The kunoichi bit her lip as he spoke it had been like this for a while as people she crossed and knew would turn their heads. She refused to let anyone make her feel different, she knew her life had suffered a lot. Even her loss of her family was a bit hard on her but a promise she made to visit Leo’s grave was all she could hold up. “I don’t wish to fight you. I couldn’t bring myself three years ago to fight my own nation nothing changed.” She said not looking at him. Ali couldn’t bring herself to ever fight unless she was practicing against someone. Betrayal or not she still had her standards and this was the first time she found herself actually in the village and things did change. He spoke again about the Intel and going against that. Originally she left to find and take down Sasuke but obviously it didn’t turn that way in the end. She became a most wanted ninja and on top of everything she knew that he had tried giving her a chance to get into something higher. “Do you know why I left? My original intent? No one really knows anything about that honestly. Yes I left the village giving up everything for my husband and for love. At first I left to take down Sasuke when I got there though I had seen a side of Sasuke no one had seen ever. Behind all that hatred was still a man who need someone there for him.” Alessia spoke about what happened so long ago. “Look I am sorry I did that I really am. I wanted to come back to try and make peace with my past. I know its going to be the hardest thing there is. I bet you know I haven’t spoken to my family since the day I left excluding my brother.” She added looking at him. When he brought up the fact Kage and her brother. She held back tears for the fact of her brother. The blond knew that was a very sensitive subject not even Sasuke would probe at it. “I understand the situation I am in. My brother knew that when I saw him. I tried to save my brother that day he passed away. I watched him die and the last thing he told me was he was glad I was happy and was sorry that things would have been better for us. The fact my brother told me that as he last words meant a lot. I’ve come back every few months to put some flowers on his graves. Yes I admit that the love I have for Sasuke has caused a lot of deaths. But I am not responsible for the attacks here.” She said her voice shaking from holding back the emotion. A few tears fell from her eyes. “Look Chijoumae if want to fight me fight me. I don’t care I have plenty of people who want me dead. I am not asking for a pity party.” The blond said wiping her tears away turning to him.

Kuro didn’t want to hear what she was talking about. She had cost ninja their lives, her husband had caused the death of his mentor and his brother. He crossed his arms hearing what she said about ninja hating her. “Well what do you expect? I sent you with full trust to take him out, and you take him to bed instead. Oh well done.” He said clapping mockingly. “Do you know how selfish you are!?” He said his eyes burning into her. He snorted about her intent. “Intent, intent! What does that matter when you went and joined his team! How and why Konoha took him back with open arms is beyond idiotic!” he couldn’t say whether what her brother said was wrong or not, but that didn’t matter. “Whether you are responsible for it or not, you stood idly by and let it happen! You should have been protecting the village instead of jumping the most wanted ninja in the Shinobi world.” Kuro always thought of himself as a proper fellow he never spoke out of turn but what Alessia had done was beyond forgivable. He sighed turning back to her. “I don’t want to fight you, or kill you Alessia.” He said shoving his hands into his pockets. “I just want you to know the bridges you’ve burned in expense for your precious love. Just know that you and your Nukenin are no longer welcome in the clouds and if I see him here, I’ll kill him like the dog he is.” He said his eyes cold with his threat.

Alessia knew this was a bad mistake coming into the village and it was lucky that she stumbled upon Kuro rather than anyone else. She sighed a little she knew what he meant and she knew he had a point rather it be the point that she couldn’t help but dislike the fact that everything she worked for was becoming to unravel. “I don’t know…. Better than this obviously. I knew I wasn’t’ coming back I planned on dying there actually did you really think even with my power I could have defeated him?” She said really not sure what she would accept, in her mind she hoped for anything better but this experience. “Selfish yes I am selfish because He understood me better than anyone around here. He understood my potential a bit better. My own family disliked me, and actually pretty much before I left disowned me because I was to wild for them. So selfish yes, for a better reason than what most would understand.” She said harshly she knew she was keeping her calm every day but things had to be said. Alessia was still shocked that the leaf village let them in and let the two work for them. Naruto saw what she saw that’s what she figured. “I can’t say much about the leaf village, nor do I understand the kage’s decision to let us there but being there is a lot different.” She spoke about the leaf village. It was always confusing of what his plan but the missions kept her busy that was for sure. “Kuro… I would have protected my village I tried to but I was late ok. Do you think I would have let my brother die just like that? There were a lot of ninja I tried to save honestly… that day I was here I disobeyed my own orders just to try and make the people live again. But I don’t have the medic training… I was late ok… You don’t think every day of my life I feel guilty about the whole thing.” She spoke with a distaste for that day. Things were very different between the nations she couldn’t help but wish peace could come easier. “I am glad you don’t want to fight or kill me. That’s a relief.” She muttered more to herself than to him. It was the fact he was still the commander of the intel and well didn’t want her dead. When he spoke about her and Sasuke not being allowed here and him killing her brought her blood almost to a boil. “So you are going to deny me of visiting my brother’s grave? You kill Sasuke I’ll make sure that you won’t live a day. I am sorry Kuro I can’t let you kill him.” Alessia said just as cold. She wasn’t scared to kill someone if it came down to her husband. Even if it meant going against someone she was once friends with.

Kuro looked Yuuki as she spoke of expecting to die. “That’s nothing new Alessia, as ninja we should never expect to come back from a mission. Got to battle expecting to live and you sure will not, go to battle expecting to die and you shall live.” He said quoting one of the greatest warriors of the world. ”I may not have expected you to live Alessia, but I had confidence and faith in you, and now you’ve thrown all that away.” Kuro crossed his arms and reached a hand to pinch the bridge of his nose. This was getting them nowhere, and Kuro hated pointless conversations. Kuro looked at her. “You know I would have been able to answer that question without a moment’s hesitation, but I realize now that the Alessia I used to know is dead and gone; now all you are is a tool for him.” She could say it was love and for her it might, be, but for a monster like him, she was nothing more than a ploy. He sighed and shook his head. “Of course not unlike you and your husband, we’re not that selfish.” He wouldn’t say anything about the Anbu that would be keeping a watch on her. “You’re more than welcome to visit, but your husband is to be killed on sight.” He shrugged at her taking a play from Roronora’s play book. “If you think you can, you’re more than welcome to try, but I won’t be an easy kill, and there are plenty of people who will come down on you.” He said turning on his heel to walk away from her.

Alessia rolled her eyes at kuro oh how the quickly she was to go back to being her old self. She knew every day she had risked her life and even more so now than what she did before. She came back to the place that hated her. “It’s the one thing I never could figure out till this day… everyone excepts their love ones to come back alive and well even knowing that they will die against an enemy stronger than what they would hope. But I was given the option to live even before I said yes to him. Even before I married him. Only to know that I am always hunted down.” She said softly attempting to let the anger just go away. Ali was trying not to send bad vibes to the children in side of her the ones who were her future and would become everything to her soon. “The Alessia you knew had to grow up, I can’t be that carefree person anymore. I would say that I’d give anything for my old life back to be here but then I would be fueling even more hatred to what is growing in my own body. Kuro things change people change, I know the decision was final and I can’t change that obviously. For the record I am far from being his tool, I vowed myself to be his wife no matter what.” She said feeling that she had changed a lot over the past two years and grown more in the two months since. She bit her lip hearing that she was welcome to visit the grave of course she’d never bring her husband her that was a death wish she did not want to live over again. “Everyone’s selfish in their own way whether they realize it or not.” Alessia said feeling that it was true even if people didn’t see it they had potential to have the selfishness. She sighed hearing that she was welcome to try as if she wasn’t already being watched with every move she managed to make just because she was technically Uchiha now. “I would gladly do it except… I need you alive and I want to request two favors Kuro. They aren’t hard and they aren’t really for me for say.” She said making sure she walked with him. “I know you hate me, obviously you have every right to at this point. But I want to ask you if you would watch my younger sister and make sure she doesn’t make the same mistakes I did. Don’t let her run off and don’t let her join the INTEL until she’s my age twenty-three. My other favor to ask of you is a bit personal…. I know I can trust you even now and its probably the stupidest thing to but I’ll let you decided.” Alessia asked, her request more if something that that happened to her type request.

Kuro shrugged at her plight. “Life is what we make it and, you’ve made yours very hard. You have no one to blame but yourself and your husband.” Kuro stopped in his tracks he looked at her and then down to her stomach. He was speechless. “Y-y-y-y-you’re pregnant with h-h-his child?!” The sheer chock of the moment brought back his stuttering. He had thought he mastered that bothersome quirk, but in times of great shock of anger it would come back to him. He cast another glance to her stomach. He tried to keep the revulsion from his face, but his eyes were a different matter. He took a deep breath. “Let’s hope it won’t be the monster its father is.” He said as he walked away feeling her follow him. He stiffened at her words. “You would try and kill me well that’s a relief, now that I know for certain my life is threatened by you being here.” If she did try he would bring down the full might of the Raiton armor upon her, he had a wife and daughter to go home to so he would not die at her hands. “I’m sure my wife and daughter will have a few things to say about that.” He said imagining Maria and Mizumi along with his sisters. He turned on her as she asked him a favor. “You threaten my life and then have the audacity to ask a favor from me!?” She was as insane as her husband. He listened to her favor for her sister. He looked away from her before nodding once. “Fine I will, but I'll make sure she lives wipes away the stain you've brought upon you house.” He listened for her second request. Whatever it was he was sure it had something to do with the children inside her.

Alessia sighed hating the fact that she was trying to get a point across. She still wasn’t quite like Sasuke her compassion was a bit stronger than usual. “I don’t blame anyone honestly, if I did then it would come into a whole other thing.” She said speaking as if it was just a distant memory. A memory she almost always wanted to forget about. Ali listened to him when he stuttered about her being pregnant with a child. “Not one child its two, twins actually. Yes I am, though I am not far along in my pregnancy to tell gender or anything just I know its twins.” She said softly apart of why she was on a peace mission figuring that if she could get someone to actually listen to her and understand she was apologizing so her children wouldn’t do the same thing as what Sasuke and the clan did then it would be better environment for them. That was to say she knew that most didn’t like the idea of her having children because they were of Sasuke’s blood which also meant they had a chance to become like him. “They won’t become like that. I won’t allow it to happen, and if I can prevent it with my own life then yes they will be normal and functioning like any other child out there. Revenge and hatred is the last thing Sasuke and I both want for these kids.” Ali said placing her hand on her stomach. It was going to be a long ride for her kids to actually grow up in a world that could potentially dislike them. “If and only if I had to, I’d rather not go down that path of killing the only other person I trust Kuro. I have to protect my own family just like you have to protect yours. In any case you have nothing to worry about.” She said knowing that she’d probably not win against Kuro, she was stronger than what she was before but not strong enough to break through his armor. It was only in the event that if she had to fight she would, with two children inside her she didn’t want to fight. She sighed knowing that was kind of a dumb thing to ask a favor after a threat but she was running out of options. “I am sorry Kuro I didn’t mean it in that way.” Alessia spoke softly about as she followed him. In any case she smiled a bit hearing him say he would look after her sister for her. “Kuro I have to thank you then. My younger sister really is the only thing I can’t loose at this point. Leo, my brother would watch out for her as did I. I can’t let her go down a path she won’t understand. But you can not tell my family you seen me either or that I am pregnant. In any case they don’t need to know anything.” She said sounding like she was stupid in her mind. It was pretty simple really she didn’t want them to find her or know she was around once. “For my second and final favor. If there something happens to me and Sasuke whether its I disappear or I die doesn’t matter…even if its me and my children are alive I want you to take them far away from their home and bring them here to safety. Kuro, I want you to protect them with your life if it ever comes down to it. I will try my best to stay alive in the case that my children are going to not know the hate and evil that happened.” Alessia spoke bitting her lip shortly after. It was a huge request to throw on someone but she knew here was safer than her own home.

To say Alessia had no tact was an understatement, she was bold and to the point, and lacked a certain fervor for subterfuge and the like, but that is why she had chosen her for Intel. She had an open innocent face that was a skill you couldn’t learn it was a gift especially in a world of ninja. He was sure this was why Sasuke had chosen her as his tool. He had to give the man props for such an elaborate scheme. He cast another glance down at her stomach. Twins she had said. If he abided by the Ninja rule book he would destroy the children in her stomach, but he was not a monster and children should not be judged by the sins of their father; even if he was a monster that should be wiped from the face of the earth. “I should hope not.” He said simply even though she was a traitor Kuro still had faith in her skills and determination, and she had taken a giant leap of faith coming here and speaking to him. He took a deep breath and let it out very slowly. “Alright Alessia you’ve had your say and I’ve had mine.” He was exhausted mentally from this verbal joust. “Very well then I won’t tell them you were mostly because I’d rather not bring bad news to them.” His eyes widened slightly he had guessed that would be her second request. He thought that over long and hard, if he did happen to take the kids that would be a major boon to the cloud he could ensure a lot with the twins of the Uchiha clan. Kuro mentally kicked himself for thinking like this. When had he transformed into someone who only thinks of loss and gain with everything he did. I guess the war changed me more than I realized. “Fine I’ll do it I’ll take care of your kids if anything should happen to you.” He said with defeatedly.

Alessia figured this was becoming the end part of their conversation. She bit her lip in any hope of a bit of gratitude towards him would help anything. She sighed a little knowing what should happen, by the rule books he was to kill her children. In any case she still knew Kuro and knew he wouldn’t try anything hopefully. She didn’t feel like fighting nor was she really all that quick to move around dodging things. A lot of it just happening so face again. The man she knew before her did have something different about him. “Do you really think I have it in me to allow my children to become hateful and vengeful? Yes I know I betrayed you and the rest of Kumo but I never really did change only became calm.” Alessia said knowing that question was more so a rhetorical question than one that should be answered. She really didn’t change and kept the same determination and mind set that would allow anything to happen. She was still not sure about being a mom to two kids at once but she knew she had to manage plus the missions she had been on were pretty basic skills need. “Of course Kuro.” She said with a sigh feeling exhausted from just being here, it was kind of an emotional rollercoaster for her as she had a lot of good and bad memories. When he agreed not to tell him she sighed in relief the last thing she wanted was her parents coming after her and unknown of craziness would happen and she wouldn’t be able to control it much. “Thank you then Kuro.” She said with a little smile on her face. Even if it was him not wanting to deliver bad news to them it was still a gesture towards a little hope and faith. When he said he would her eyes opened wide and her smile widened due knowing her children would be safe when she was gone. She instantly went to hug him as a gesture of happiness in hope he would accept it. “KURO!!! You just made me so happy! Honestly I was worried you’d say no, and I was worried that if I died these kids would go crazy and obviously that’s a bad thing but if you take care of they should never learn about hatred and revenge.” She said happily feeling weird to actually be here and happy again.

Kuro shrugged. “Like I said I used to know you, and I don’t know what you’ll do in service to your husband./i] So I reserve the right to judge your actions from what you’ve done.” He said harshly he may have once trusted her, but now she was nothing more than a nukenin who got a free pass in his eyes. Was he being too hard on her maybe? Could he say that had it been Maria he’d fallen in love with as a nukenin would he not have done the same? He shook those thoughts from his head. The point is he wasn’t in that predicament. He was loyal to his village, not someone who changed his beliefs on a whim to suit his wants. She became calm, more like cold and unfeeling. He was doing this not for her, but her family, so as not to cause them anymore strife. She exploded in a barrage of words and run on sentences, and then she did something he was not comfortable with at all. She hugged him. He was on guard just in case she was to stab him or something. He extricated himself from the show of emotion and gave her an awkward pat on the shoulder. “You’re uh…welcome.” He said finally before making his way to the Raikage tower. He didn't want to be seen with her anymore than was neccessary. Darui needed to be made aware of the situation post haste.

Alessia knew that it was done everything couldn’t have been changed to suit her liking. That was something she had hoped for but of course wouldn’t come. “I can’t ask you to forgive nor can I beg for it. But I can say that I won’t be the one to cause a war nor will I fight in it against you. Count it as my peace offering, and a promise that Sasuke Uchiha will not be coming to Kumo ever on my life naturally. I’ll do what I can to make sure of that.” Alessia said holding up her fingers in a peace sign. It was her way of promising something. Even if it meant keeping her husband away from visiting the grave of her brother. She would still go to the coast and that would be as far as she would make it. When she hugged Kuro she could tell her was a bit uncomfortable about it. Naturally she kind of figured that it was because he thought she was going to kill him. She may have had her cold dark evil side to her but it was usually at rest for the most part. “I am sorry Kuro I didn’t mean to do that. Its just my emotions are running all over the place. But at last I should head back to the leaf village. It was great seeing you again.” Alessia said softly knowing that he was trying to leave as well. If she stayed there much longer she felt her life would probably be in bigger danger than what it already was. She headed in the direction of the coast where she had her boat set up.
