Planing.

It was still dark when I woke up. No, I was forced to wake up. It has been around a week already. And throughout this week, I have been seeing my parents in my dreams. I don't know why, but from the moment I turned two, I can remember every single detail about them, our life in the village that now is nothing more than debris, their deaths and smiling faces with which they left the world of the living.

'Again... why did I have to see their deaths again?' I gritted my teeth and exited the tent. My tent was located at the edge of a joined camp. When the treaty was officially signed, Senju and Uchiha clans made one big camp instead of two smaller ones. I was going to sleep on the mountain, but 'Since you are also going to be living with us, camp here. Is what I've been told and wasn't allowed to go away.

The dark, still starry sky stretched in all directions, wrapping everyone in sound sleep. The chilly, morning mist hasn't yet dissipated and the only sounds that were coming from the forest were roars and whistles of the night animals and beasts.

I turned around and walked in the direction of the river. As I strolled, I enjoyed the night scenery of the forest. Tall, majestic trees gave an impression of loyal, indestructible guardians that will never waiver in the sight of an enemy. Short bushes would occasionally rustle, but no one would come out. The beasts here are way too scared to approach me now, hehe.

When I reached the river, I took a quick shower and changed into fresh clothes. I then moved back in the direction of the camp, but a little bit to the side, to another field nearby.

"Yosh! Morning exercises it is!" - I may sound as if I'm excited, but believe me, I'm not. I wouldn't do something so troublesome if it wasn't for my spartan teacher... a muscle brain. If, when I get back, my body will be out of shape, my training difficulty will rise to a whole other level. Definitely not something I want to experience.

For a warm-up, I did some light yoga that was taught to me by Govardhani and moved on to actual training. I ran for around an hour and did push-ups, sit-ups, and some pull-ups. Well, how big is this 'some'... around 150 each I guess? After I was done with that part, I practised with weapons. A bow, a short sword and a spear. Those are the weapons that my teacher chose for me. I'm not a master, but I think I can take on a knight captain in one on one match without using magic. Seriously, just who the hell is my teacher?

The sun was slowly rising above the horizon and morning birds were chirping loudly, praying to the sun. After 3 hours of exercises, I sat down under the tree, made a tear in the space and took out a water bottle and a towel. Govardhani's world was so interesting! Despite not having magic, they could make things that moved using electricity or some kind of fuel. Cars, aeroplanes, mobile phones, internet, TVs, amusement parks, theme parks, cinemas and so on. The list could go on forever.

I studied every single detail about the way they worked and were constructed, and when I got back, I implemented some of the things. It was a foolish idea, that solidified my position as the crown princess. The things I implemented were mainly directed on the common citizens.... well what is done, is already done.

"Do you exercise like this every day?" A mocking voice came from a tree branch right above my head.

"Yes. I have to or else my teacher will add a 'few' more 'light' exercises." I lifted my head and faced the person above me.

"Hn." The person jumped from the brunch and landed right in front of me. He stood there with a smug look on his face. "I train a lot more and wouldn't even sweat from this much of exercising!" Fukushū bragged.

"You trained to fight. I exercise to be healthy and a little stronger than others so that my body could withstand the energy sealed in it." I answered. Really what an annoying fellow.

"Hn." He turned around, jump back on the tree and left, leaving a few words behind, "Sensei told me to call you when you were found." His tone didn't show any emotion, but his aura was really spiky and the hostility was directed at me.

'What's his problem?!'

I stood up, dried my clothes with wind spell and teleported back into my tent. I changed into my usual green top and black pants and headed in the direction of Madara's presence.

When I finally saw him, he was in front of the biggest tent bickering with Tobirama about something. Madara would find a way to joke or comment on something Tobirama did and the later would think of a comeback with a very annoyed expression. They sure get along.

"Hey! Good morning to you too!"

"Morning"

"Good morning. Where were you?" Tobirama asked.

"Just took a bath and did some morning exercises," I told them nonchalantly.

"Huh... next time warn us when you leave."

"Yeeeeesssss, moooooom." Tobirama froze and Madara smirked. I think I just gave him more reason to tease the poor blue fox. I don't feel sorry though.

He turned around and entered the tent gesturing us to follow. When we crossed the curtain-like doors, we saw Hashirama sitting on the floor behind a table filled with different documents. Plans for our future village, contracts, management and so on. Looks like the talk will be about this.

"Good morning! Your yesterday's performance really lifted the mood, Malika!"

"Heh, thanks."

"Elder brother, we have many important matters to discuss. Stop fooling around." Tobirama killed the mood as usual; however, instead of becoming depressed, Hashirama's gaze turned serious and collected.

'He can be a good leader when he wants to.'

"Sit down first." We sat and the discussion started with him talking about his plans and projects. It appears that when he took over the position of the Senju clan leader, he started to make some preparations and even got permission from a person named Daimyo, basically a ruler of this nation. During this discussion, I learnt a lot about the geography of this place.

"So you want to build a village for a shinobi in this forest."

"Yes. When Madara and I were kids, we dreamed about this."

"Yeah, we did."

"Okay." I cut them "In this kind of meetings, no stary talks are allowed. So in short: you want to make this village as kind of military force of the nation?"

"I didn't want, but the Daimyo wouldn't agree otherwise."

"Yeah, politics are a pain in the butt." I agreed. "So we will have a shinobi academy, where they will learn ninja arts and some basic knowledge, like math, economics, history and so on. When they graduate, they will be placed in a three-man team and have a senior shinobi leading them." The plan looks okay, but there is one thing that bothers me.

"There is one thing that I want to ask. Why am I part of the discussion? You two," I pointed at Madara and Hashirama," are the leaders of your clans and he," I looked at Tobirama," is your right-hand man. I don't think you need an opinion of an outsider."

"You are not an outsider," Hashirama said in a serious tone. " You are part of this alliance and the one who made it possible without further sacrifices. In my opinion, you are more than qualified to be here." I looked at the other two people and saw them nodding their heads.

I smiled. I found a place to stay and friends. It did give that warmth that I couldn't get at the palace where I'm someone of so much power and influence.

"I get it."

"Elder brother, I think that there must be some kind of ranking system between shinobi that will indicate their level."

"I also think that this is a must." Madara said, "Actually, when I became the clan leader, I was also thinking about a possible existence of the village, so I made some rankings." He took out a piece of paper from his sleeve. "Here."

The ranks that he thought of were: Gennin, Chunin and Jounin. The weakest would be Gennin and the strongest, Jounin. There were also other things like special Jounin and different specialities for future shinobi.

"It looks like a good plan. what do you think?"

"I like this a lot!" Hashirama approved immediately.

"I don't see any reasons to reject it." Even Tobirama agreed.

"Okay, then!" I clapped my hands. "Since there are no oppositions, we will implement this when the academy will be formed. But I think that having only three people per team is too little. I also think that having a 'Medical nin' in every team will help a lot a reduce our casualties during missions."

"It is really hard to become a medical-nin. Very good control over one's chakra is needed and a person must have a very profound knowledge of a human body. We don't have the resources just yet."

"No one said it has to be now. The village will become what we see it, but it won't happen in one day or a year. It will take years. Also, I'll provide the information regardless of human anatomy and diseases, so you don't have to worry about it."

Human anatomy in this world is almost exactly the same as Govardhani's world, with one only difference. Humans have a system that circulates chakra. When I scanned Madara on our first meeting, I memorised each and every turn of that system, so all that is left is to write books and make visual examples. I'll do that with my magic for the time being and later they will be replicated by others.

"Can you do that?" Tobirama asked with some doubt.

"If I said I can, that means I can."

"Alright then! This will be a talk for the future. Now, does anyone have any more suggestions on the plan of the village?"

We spend around 2 more hours discussing that and by lunchtime, we had thing lined up in priority and went to eat.
