Chapter 13: Friends

Adrian stood in shock as he realized who the two people that stood in front of him were.

The literal Asura of the Shinobi world, the future Ghost of the Uchiha, the latest reincarnation of Indra.

He's the man who single handedly destroyed an army of 10,000 shinobi and even destroyed the 5 kage as if they were ordinary shnobi, and that wasn't even when he was not at his peak.

And the man who would later terrorize the Shinobi World, is now pouting at his brother for telling his name.

"Why would you tell him that Izuna, how do we know he's not a spy!" said Madara while looking at his brother.

"He said he was from the Hagoromo Clan, there our allies so why does it matter." Izuna replied.

"But what if he was lying! He might be trying to trick us into letting our guards down." Madara countered while simply looking at Adrian from the corner of his eye.

Adrian simply looked at the two's interaction in a daze, shocked that one of the goals he had in this life and a man who would later terrorize the entire world was so childish and innocent at one point in his life.

The two continued to argue while Adrain deadpanned and said

"You two both know I'm still here right?" he said as they both looked at him as Izuna spoke first.

"Sorry about that. My brother is very protective of me and he isn't the best at conveying his emotions." Izuna said with a smile while Madara turned his head.

"It's fine, but you are the kids of Lord Uchiha aren't you." asked Adrian as even though he already knew the answer, he still should ask.

"Yes that is our father, but why does that matter to you." Madara said coldly.

However his cold facade broke instantly when Izuna smack him over the top of the head.

"Ouch Izuna, that hurts." Madara said while rubbing his head.

"Apologies again, Adrian." Izuna said while still smiling.

"It's fine but your brother seems like he's a tsundere." said Adrian making Izuna laugh while Madara just blushed before yelling "I am not!!" making the two continue to laugh.

The three then got to know each other better as they walked around their compound as Izuna introduced Adrian to all the people they passed on the way as well as trying the foods run by everyone.

The three grew a lot closer as they spent time together and before they realized it, the sun was already set.

The three stood in a comfortable silence, with Adrian being the one to break it by saying

"I had fun today, but be prepared for tomorrow since the mission may get didfficult" to which both nodded.

"See you tomorrow Adrian." said Izuna, while he and Madara went towards their home as Adrian went towards where they were staying.

The boys went in different directions while preparing for the mission they will have, ready to stand side by side as they take on the challenge.
