        Summary: The little mouth suckling vigorously on his nipple dragged him out of his dark thoughts. This advanced in his pregnancy, his br@@sts were filled with milk, and his little tag-along seemed to fully appreciate that fact. Tobirama chuckled tiredly, carressing the head of the infant in his arms.Nothing had gone accorded to plan during this mission in Snow Country.

    Tetsuo was fascinated. At three years old, the little alpha boy lived in the Gynaeceum with his mother Akito, recently widowed. And it had been a few days since a new person had appeared in the Gynaeceum.The new person was an omega, and Tetsuo thought they might be a mister just like his mom. And Tetsuo was fascinated. They were so tall and looked so strong. And their skin was pale like the snow, just like their hair. And their eyes were red like the Sharingan, so it meant they must be really strong.The pale maybe-mister omega was always with Kagami, rocking him, feeding him. And sometimes, other omegas asked them to feed their babies and they did, and Tetsuo was a little sad not to be a baby anymore, because their bosom looked so soft and the babies always made happy noises when they fed them. The little boy admitted he might be jealous.He had noticed that the pale omega person had shackles around their ankles. Tetsuo was wondering if they had done something naughty and were being punished. Chihiro-obaa-san could be scary when she caught you being naughty.Hiding behind his mother as they were lounging in the hammam with other omegas, Tetsuo was spying on the pale omega person. They were sitting alone in a corner, away from the others, wearing a large piece of white clothe around his waist, that had become almost translucent because of the vapor. They were looking into the void, and seemed so sad inside. They were speaking with nobody and nobody spoke with them. Tetsuo found that stupid. And he didn’t like the sad look in the pretty omega person’s red eyes.The little boy took his decision. He escaped his mother’s attention and ran to the pretty omega person. When he reached them, he all but jumped on their lap and sat there, looking up at them with a big smile.« Hello ! I am Tetsuo ! I am three ! » he cheered, holding two fingers proudly in front of the pretty omega person’s face.The pale omega blinked, dumbfounded. Tetsuo, too happy that they had noticed him, didn’t felt the atmosphere in the hammam change, becoming colder and heavier. All the other omegas in the room were looking at them, tense, ready to attack. The pale omega blinked once more and then smiled, small and soft and Tetsuo beamed. He had succeeded ! They weren’t sad anymore !They gently stroked Tetsuo’s hair.« Hello Tetsuo, » they said gently, « you are very big for your age. »Tetsuo preened.« What is your name ? » the little boy asked curiously.« My name is Tobirama, little one... »« Tobia… To… rama… can I call you Tora ? »They chuckled softly, their eyes creasing.« Of course, you can, » they answered.Tetsuo grinned and stood up on Tora’s lap, putting his little hands on their shoulders. Tora didn’t move, still smiling.« Why is your hair white ? » he asked.« It is because I am an albino, » Tora answered in a soft voice.« What is an albino ? »Tora chuckled. They gently took Tetsuo under the arms and made the little boy sit on their lap.« Well, » they said, « you see, every person has a book, inside of them. And in this book, it is written if you are an omega or an alpha, a girl or a boy, the color of your skin, of your hair, of your eyes, if you will suffer from certain diseases, or the nature of your chakra... »Tetsuo was lsitening intently, mouth gaping, ears wide open.« In my book, the color isn’t written, » Tora continued in a soft voice, « this is why my hair and my skin are white, and my eyes red. Because of that, my sight isn’t very good, and I can’t stay too long in the sun without protection. »« Your eyes aren’t red because of the Sharingan ? » Tetsuo asked.« No, little one, it’s not because of the Sharingan. I am not an Uchiha, I do not have it. »« Where can I find my book ? »« It is a very tiny book, little one, hidden in every part of your body, and it isn’t written in any langage we know. I am afraid you can’t find it. »Tetsuo pouted.« Why are you shackled ? » the little boy asked then, « did Chihiro-obaa-san punish you ? »A shadow passed on Taro’s sharp face and they exhaled slowly before smiling again.« Yes, you can say that Chihiro-san punished me, » they joked, in a strained and weary voice.Tetsuo didn’t like the way sadness was worming its way back into Tora. He was about to ask another question when his mother arrived and took the little boy into his arms. He saw Tora’s face close up in resignation and was about to protest when his mother sat next to Tora, setting Tetsuo on his lap. The little boy squealed in pleasure as his mother nuzzled his hair. Akito looked up at Tora with unreadable eyes and the pale omega looked away.« My little monster didn’t annoy you ? » Akito asked a little mischeviously.Tora’s face whipped up in his direction, red eyes wide. They looked at Tetsuo and smiled.« No, he didn’t annoy me at all, on the contrary. This is a very kind and curious little boy you have here. »Akito grinned and kissed the top of Tetsuo’s head. The little boy giggled. Tora was still looking tired but their smile was genuine.« Oh, yes, very curious ! » Akito chuckled, tickling his son’s sides and the little boy flailed in delight.The omega stood up, Tetsuo in his arms.« I’m going to wash myself, » he said, « why don’t you come ? I’ll wash your back and you’ll do mine. »Tora seemed frozen in surprise for a second, before they nodded slowly.« With pleasure, » they said.************Tobirama closed his eyes and sighed as Akito washed his back, with quick and vigorous movements. The water was warm and soothing and the smell floating in the hammam was a mix of musk and soap, heavy, safe and relaxing. Only omegas and small children here, nothing to fear. The young man inhaled deeply as Akito gently poured water on his back. Tetsuo was running around them with a big enthousiastic smile, asking a hundred questions a minute, and Tobirama was patiently answering each of them.« You’re very patient with children, » Akito said.Tobirama looked at him over his shoulder. He scratched his head and chewed on his lower lip.« I… had two little brothers, » he said in an hesitant voice, « my mother and my father were always on a mission or on the battlefield so I was the one who took care of them. They were kind and curious, following me everywhere... »It suddenly felt like his voice was stuck in his throat. He inhaled and blinked, a tear rolling on his cheek. The memories were flooding him. Sweet little Itama, smart and curious, who crawled into Tobirama’s bed at night to cuddle and ask questions about everything he had seen in the day (he was the main reason Tobirama had started reading science scrolls and experimenting). And cute and energic Kawarama, always begging him for spars and teaching. He trailed permanently after Tobirama till the omega accepted to teach him new jutsu (not that Tobirama resisted him very much).Tobirama sniffled, a sob blocked in his throat, choking him. He shuddered and shook. And suddenly Tetsuo hugged his waist and squeezed. Tobirama looked down at the little boy who was staring at him with serious eyes.« Don’t be sad, Tora ! » he said.Tobirama wiped the tears from his eyes and smiled wobblily at the little boy.« Thank you, Tetsuo, » he croacked, ruffling the little boy’s hair.Tetsuo beamed. Behind him, Akito smiled sadly.« We all lost a lot in that stupid war, » he said softly.Tobirama exhaled and bit his tongue. Akito was right unfortunately, but the young man was feeling like he had lost more than most. Maybe it was selfish to think that, but he was feeling so empty, so hollow. Sometimes, when he opened his eyes in the morning, he felt dead inside, and he wanted nothing more than just lay there till his heart stopped beating. And then he heard Kagami cry, and he forced himself to get out of bed, to beat the coldness, the sadness, to bury it under a mountain of rage and spite. His baby needed him, the rest of the world could burn.He washed Akito’s back and they lounged a little more in the hammam before leaving. Tetsuo trailed happily after Tobirama, still bombarding the young omega with questions. And even if he would never admit it out loud, the young man loved it. Through the day, they were joined by other children and soon, Tobirama found himself sitting cross-legged in the inside garden of the Gynaeceum, surrounded by little children, Kagami in his arms, sleeping peacefully, as he explained them the concept of chakra natures. He almost forgot how tired and disgusted he was.The next day, Chihiro invited him to drink tea, and even without his sensing, he could see she was up to something. She led him to the exterior engawa of the Gynaeceum, the one opened on the compound. He was pretty sure she wanted to get the alphas used to his presence inside the compound. He guessed this was a good idea, exposure was the most used strategy to develop poison  immunity, after all.There was a little ornamented table with a teapot and two cups of bone china, as well as two embroidered cushions. Chihiro, with her usual grace, sauntered to her cushion and knelt down. Tobirama pushed the cushion out of his way with his feet and he lied down on his back, letting his head hang off the engawa to look at the skies (it had been too long since he had taken the time to just watch it). Kagami was lying on his chest, under his yukata, sleeping peacefully. He stretched his legs and sighed. Chihiro was pouring tea in the cups and Tobirama smelt the scent of jasmin drift in the air.« So, Tobirama, » Chihro said, sipping her tea, « I’ve heard that you became friend with Akito. »« Friend is a big word, » he grumbled.He had met Akito yesterday, and while he admitted the young man was open-minded and kind (and Tetsuo was just utterly adorable), it was too early to even speak about affection. Tobirama closed his eyes and stroked Kagami’s hair. The little boy giggled in his sleep and Tobirama smiled. He exhaled and opened his eyes.« If you just told me what you want, » he grunted.She chuckled.« Straight to the aim, huh ? »« I don’t like beating around the bush when I can avoid it. »« Fine. I want to know more about the Senju iryo-ninjutsu. »Tobirama blinked and looked at her. There was a fire in her eyes and her hands were twitching. He exhaled, thinking quickly.« What do I get out of it ? » he asked, squinting.Chihiro smirked.« I knew you were gonna ask something like that, » she said, and she produced his fur pelt from somewhere on her person (seriously, how such a small woman could hide so many things on herself?)Tobirama’s eyes widened and he straightened up on his elbows, glancing between his furpelt and Chihiro’s face. He squinted. His upbringing told him that he should refuse, that he should do everything in his power to get in the Uchiha’s way, to destroy their projects and their hopes. But this pelt was litterally the only thing he had left of his mother (so his upbringing could go f@ck itself). He closed his arms on Kagami to craddle him softly and rolled on his side.« Give me that, » he said, « and I’ll give you everything I know. Every jutsu, every bit of knowledge I have on iryo-ninjutsu. »She blinked, apparently surprised by his reaction. Slowly, she gave him his pelt. Tobirama grabbed it eagerly and immediately curled against it with a little moan, burying his nose in the fur and inhaling. Then he threw it on his shoulders and snapped the silver pin close. He felt like his mother was holding him and he went lax, sighing. He heard Chihiro clear her throat. He stubbornly kept his eyes closed.« You look way younger like that, » she said softly.Tobirama rolled on his back, eyes still closed.« I hope you have something to take notes, » he said.« Oh, don’t worry ! » Chihiro chuckled, « I have everything I need ! »He heard the clank of an inkstone being set on the table and the soft noise of a scroll being unrolled. He smiled.« Perfect, » he said.So he started his explanations. The basics of iryo-ninjutsu at first, the principles linking all the different field. He described the different manners to mould iryo chakra, the elemental natures to use depending on the result you wanted, the kind of wound you were treating. Next to him, Chihiro was noting everything he was saying, litterally vibrating.After a moment, Kagami started getting agitated and Tobirama pulled on the hem of his yukata to bare one of his br@@sts before gently leading the little boy to his nipple. Kagami immediately latched on it, with little happy noises, kneading Tobirama’s breast with his little hands. The young omega smiled, eyes still closed, and felt his tense muscles relax slowly. He sighed.He could stay there, he thought, sprawled on the engawa, just resting. It went against all he knew, but it was an alluring thought.He then started to expand on other fields of iryo-ninjutsu, the different types of cells, how to repair each of them. He particularly insisted on the jutsu to treat brain wounds, minutiously describing each step of the chakra moulding process and each seal of the jutsu. Chihiro was writing furiously, muttering under her breath.Tobirama was about to start another spiel on poison treatment when he felt a movement above his head and opened his eyes, tensing like a bowstring, inhaling sharply. Izuna was there, sweaty and barechested, and he was making a move to touch Kagami’s head. When he saw Tobirama’s reaction, he stopped himself and smiled awkawrdly.« Hey, » he said with a crooked grin, « I just… hum… well, I wanted to see how Kagami was doing... »Chihiro glared at him, apparently annoyed that Izuna interrupted Tobirama’s explanations.« You could have announced yourself, » she chided acidly.Izuna scrunched his nose and shrugged his shoulders.« Sorry, » he groaned petulantly.Tobirama straightened up, Kagami complaining loudly when his meal was interrupted. The young omega threaded his fingers through the baby’s soft curly hair to calm him, as he sat to face Izuna, closing his yukata with his free hand. Izuna was thankfully looking elsewhere. Tobirama swallowed his saliva and looked up at the alpha. After what had happened a few days ago, he was anxious at the idea of an alpha looking at him. The weight of an alpha’s eyes on his skin made him aggressive. He pursed his lips on his teeth.« Kagami is doing well, » he sniped, craddling the little boy against his chest, protectively, as if Izuna was going to tear him from his arms.His inner omega wanted this annoying and threatening alpha to stop looking at his baby and get his f@ck@ng ass away from him. But Izuna huffed and crossed his arms on his chest.« Easy, » he said, « I’m not gonna do anything. »Tobirama sneered and turned to show his profile to Izuna, nose scrunched in anger. Chihiro cleared her throat, apparently trying to get his attention back but Tobirama was too tense to notice her.« And you, » Izuna suddenly said, « how are you doing ? »Tobirama blinked and his head whipped quickly in Izuna’s direction.« Why would you care ? » he blurted before he could stop himself.Izuna frowned.« Well, » he said, « maybe I just want to know ! Maybe I think it’s in Kagami’s best interest if you get better ! »Tobirama’s eery eyes widened. Next to him, Chihiro rolled her eyes and sighed.« Or maybe he’s a worrywart who like all Uchiha alphas has a relationship of love hate with his rival, » she groaned.Izuna’s face burned.« Aunt Chihiro !! » he exclaimed, cheeks flaming.Tobirama felt himself blush, but he didn’t understand why. It was like a warm hand had seized his heart and his throat. It was not something he was used to, not something he had ever felt before. So he reacted like any shinobi would have when confronted to the unknown.With aggression.« Yeah, because my well-being was clearly your priority a month ago, when you wnated to skin me alive, » he snarled, teeth bared.Izuna’s dark eyes widened and his face scrunched in hurt. As if Tobirama was the hurtful one here, as if he wasn’t chained and defenceless, at the mercy of the Uchiha. As if Tobirama was at fault. The young omega felt anger rise in his chest scorching like bile. He was feeling helpless, raw, he just wanted to lash out. Violence and pain were the only langages he knew, they were easy to speak, easy to give, easy to receive.He wanted to squash this little feeling in his chest, to crush it under his heel and set it on fire. Because how dared Izuna… His own brother thought he was a monster, had treated him like an object at worst, like an animal at best. His entire clan had done so. He was a weapon, people used him and threw him away. Nobody cared. So to think his enemy, his greatest rival did…No. No, it was too cruel.He rose to his feet, towering over Izuna.« So what ?! » he snapped, « you discover I have a c@nt and suddenly I am a fragile little thing that needs protection ?! What, am I not good as an opponent anymore ?! »Izuna was looking like he had just been slapped. The distant, rationnal part of Tobirama was consious he was being very unfair to Izuna, who just wanted to be kind. But the animal part of himself was drowning in fury and hurt, phantom pains wrecking his abdomen, and he just wanted to bite down. And Izuna was a perfect target for his ire.« Do not insult me !! » he roared, « I am a shinobi ! Get these chains off me and I’ll f@ck@ng remind you !! »Izuna was standing still, statufied. Behind him, some people were stopping to look. With his bad eyes, he couldn’t see their faces, but he thought he saw Madara approaching (curse these chakra suppressing shackles).« And to answer your question, I’m having the time of my life, can’t you see ?! People would kill to be in my shoes ! I honestly don’t see why you give a f@ck !! »Kagami started crying in his arms and it shook Tobirama out of his trance. He distinctly noticed that tears were rolling down his face. Tobirama was feeling raw, as if his nerves had been scrapped with glass paper. His skin was too much, or not enough. Overwhelmed, he turned on his heels and sought refuge inside the Gynaeceum, his chains clinking with each of his steps.************Chihiro watched the door slam behind Tobirama and she sighed. She tidied up her calligraphy set and rolled her scrolls. At least, she had learned quite a lot of things about iryo-ninjutsu. She had been right to insist to give the boy a chance, he was true mine of knowledge. Unfortunately, he was also fragile, haunted by his trauma. And Izuna had unknowingly wedged a knife in one of his deepest wounds, before twisting and turning.No wonder he had reacted like that.Speaking about Izuna, the lad was frozen in shock, his yukata hanging from his lax hand.« I… Idon’t understand, » he started, « I didn’t mean anything... »« It’s okay lad, » she said, « it’s not your fault. »Madara came stomping, dark and looming, glaring heavily. He put a hand on his brother’s shoulder before adressing Chihiro.« What the f@ck was that ? » he snapped.« It was a wounded animal reacting to a perceived aggression, » she answered tiredly.« Well, keep him on a short leash or I’ll put him in a cage, » Madara threatened.« Madara, » Chihiro protested, « he’s traumatized ! You can’t blame him for lashing out ! »« I can when he’s threatening my brother ! » Madara growled.« Aniki, » Izuna snapped, « as mush as I appreciate your concern, I am a big boy who can take care of himself ! »Madara bristled, eyes flashing red, and Chihiro stood up and left before the brothers started fighting like they sometimes did. She went back into the Gynaeceum and closed the door behind her. She sighed and dragged a hand down her face when she heard muffled sobs. Two children, Yumi and Aki, came running to her, distressed.« Chihiro-obaa-san ! » they said, « Tora-san is crying ! »Chihiro felt sadness seize her heart. The children in the Gynaeceum had taken a quick liking to Tobirama, and to noone’s surprise (the man had a soft spot for children the size of the country), the young omega was very kind and patient with them, spending hours teaching them about every subject they were interested in.« I’m coming kiddos, » she said.She followed them to one of the bedrooms, where she found Tobirama in a corner, curled in a ball, Kagami in his arms, shaking and sobbing. Tetsuo was standing near him, patting his shoulder and looking distressed by his incapacity to comfort the omega. The little boy looked at her like she was the solution to everything. Akito and Kagome were hovering in the corridor, and they looked helplessly at Chihiro.« He got inside and broke down, » Kagome said softly, rocking her daughter, « we don’t know why he... »Chihiro patted her elbow and entered inside the room. She knelt in front of the young omega. Tobirama’s shoulders were shaking, the young man seemed to be disappearing in the imensity of his pelt. In his arms, Kagami was agitating his little hands, touching Tobirama’s chin.« Lad, » Chihiro said gently.A loud sob raked through Tobirama. He looked up at Chihiro with puffy eyes.« It’s unfair, » he croacked.« What is unfair, lad ? » she asked softly.He shook his head, sobbing.« He doesn’t have the right to care, » he sobbed, « he doesn’t... »He sniffled, tears welling in his eyes.« It’s unfair… why… I don’t understand why he of all people would care... »Chihiro sighed. Poor boy… She stood up and turned to Akito and Kagome.« Go fetch blankets and tea, » she said, « and tell the children to come. »They nodded and immediately scrammed to obey her. Chihiro made a signe of head to Tetsuo, who immediately huddled against Tobirama, circling (or at least trying to, the Senju was just so much larger than an Uchiha omega) his waist with his small arms. Yumi and Aki barrelled into the room and hugged Tobirama’s other side. The young Senju’s face was still wet with tears, but his sobs were slowly dying down. Kagome came back at this moment with a mountain of blankets and a dozen of children.Soon, Tobirama found himself buried in warmth, surrounded by children. He slowly relaxed and stopped crying, a small shy smile spreading his lips. Tetsuo and Yumi were chattering non-stop to distract him. Kagome was sitting next to him, breastfeeding Yori, surveying Tobirama like an hawk, ready to intervene if he had another breakdown. Akito had come back with a teapot of ginger tea (it was awefully watered down, could barely qualify as tea, but they didn’t have a lot of tea or ginger left) and had put a cup of steaming liquid in Tobirama’s hands. Several omegas had come and asked him to breastfeed their babies, since they had noticed it made him relax quickly. Tajima had also come, he just sat in a corner in silence and watched. Chihiro was reviewing all the notes she had taken, while keeping an eyes on Tobirama.(The boy had given her so much knowledge on iryo-ninjutsu on barely a few hours, and she bet they had barely scrapped the surface. She wanted to press him for more, but she understood that he wasn’t in the state to do so. So she waited, there would be other occasions.)Finally, Tobirama fell asleep, his head pillowed on Tajima’s thigh, Kagami cocooned in his arms. The old omega was threading his fingers through Tobirama’s silver-white hair. Chihiro could only guess what was giving on in her great-nephew’s head, but she bet he was seeing himself in the young Senju. After his rape, Tajima had spent years suffering from nightmares and panic attacks, lashing out at alphas without any apparent reasons. He understood what Tobirama was feeling.Chihiro stood up, checking that everybody was sleeping before exiting the room. She left the Gynaeceum and went to the training grounds. Izuna and Madara were here, ostensibly giving the cold shoulder to one another, each in their corner. The old woman sighed and facepalmed.Children, these two were children.She approached to place herself between them and cleared her throat.« You might be interested in the fact that Tobirama is a little bit better, » she said.Izuna didn’t answer, even if his shoulders relaxed a bit. Madara, on the other hand…« I don’t give a d@mn ! » the young alpha snapped, his back turned, his strong arms crossed on his chest. Chihiro squinted. If this little dumbass thought she hadn’t noticed the way his eyes were tracing Tobirama’s curves anytimes he saw the omega, he was very wrong.(She might not have the Mangekyo but she saw everything.)« Can you at least tell me why you are still angry at each other ? » she groaned.At these words, they whirled on their heels to face and point at each other.« Because this dumbass has no preservation instincts ! » Madara snarled.« Because this idiot think I am too fragile to defend myself against a bound prisonner ! » Izuna retorted.« He escaped once, he can do it another time ! And attack you ! »« And why would he do that ?! After everything he did to prove he was trustworthy!! »« Because he’s an insane beast !! »They were hissing in each other’s face like angry wet cats, and Chihiro rolled her eyes, reaching the end of her depleted patience. She grabbed the end of their hair and pulled as hard as she could. Which made them get on a knee with a yowl of pain. For good measure – and because she was feeling very petty – she pulled one more time and they yelped again.Ah ! Served these little dumbasses well !« Aunt Chihiro ! » they protested.« Ready to behave like adults ? » she groaned tiredly.Izuna grunted and nodded. When Madara stayed silent one second too many, Chihiro pulled again…« Ow ! Yeah, okay, okay... »He sat cross-legged on the ground, rubbing his aching scalp. Izuna was sitting in front of him, arms crossed on his chest, looking at his feet. Chihiro let go of their hair and sat on her heels.« I understand that you didn’t appreciate that Tobirama lashed out earlier, » she said, « but you have to get that he’s hurt, traumatized deeply. He will react to triggers that we might not understand or even consider as such. »Madara scrunched his nose.« He still threatened Izuna, » he grumbled.« Boy, how would you have reacted if you had discovered that your worst enemy cared more about you than your own brother ? »Madara’s face whipped up, eyes wide. He was pale and gaping. Izuna’s face had crumpled, grief clear on his sharp features. Chihiro exhaled.« Well, » she said, pulling several scorlls from her sleeves, « now that this is clear in your heads, let me show you everything I had learned today, and why it is so important that we give a chance to Tobirama. »************Tobirama was feeling empty and tired. His eyes were puffy and red-rimmed and his throat raw. Despite that, he had gone back on the engawa. He knew it might not be a good idea, but he refused to let the alphas see he was scared. Furthermore, he felt good on the engawa. The atmosphere was fresh, but he was wearing his fur pelt and he had found a nice sunny patch, warm, but with enough shadow to shield his sensitive skin from the light. He had been curled here for almost an hour, Kagami in his arms, the infant suckling on his nipple.Tobirama stroked the baby’s curly dark hair, lost in thought. He was producing less milk than before and this was starting to worry him. The Uchiha were giving him just enough food to function, but the hunger was here, waiting like a predator ready to pounce, and he had lost weight, he could feel it. But it didn’t seem like a special treatment due to his status as a prisonner, he had the same amount of food as any omega in the Gynaeceum.It just wasn’t enough. Neither for him, nor for the others, who were also always hungry. And it wasn’t a problem specific to the Gynaeceum, the alphas too were hungry, functionning on barely enough food. The Uchiha Clan was hungry, and if for now the children seemed spared the misfortune, but it was clear they soon would suffer of it. Tobirama frowned.He couldn’t let that happen.Kagami stopped suckling and yawned, fisting his little hands and Tobirama chuckled, tickling the baby’s nose with his index. Kagami sneezed and grabbing the offending appendage, before munching on it, glaring at Tobirama, his dark eyes slightly crossing. The young omega snickered and kissed the baby’s forehead, rocking him gently.And then a silhouette surged not far from him. Tobirama squinted, his bad sight not allowing him to distinguish who it was exactly, but they were smelling distinctly alpha and weren’t standing on the engawa.« Hey, » the alpha said and Tobirama tensed like a bowstring. He recognized that voice, it was the alpha who had attacked and stripped him a week ago.Tobirama scrambled on his feet, his shackles clinking loudly, and rushed to the nearest door. He counted on the fact that the alphas didn’t have the right to penetrate the Gynaeceum and wouldn’t break that rule even to get to him to be able to get to the door. The alpha ran behind him.« Wait ! » the alpha cried as Tobirama grabbed the handle of the door, « wait ! I just want to apologize ! »Tobirama stopped. In his arms, Kagami was squirming.« I… I am sorry, » the alpha said, « sorry that I… well… I’ve learned what happened to you… I shouldn’t have done… what I did... »Tobirama felt anger grow in his chest. Another who thought that his c@nt made him a fragile little thing that needed protection. Another who forgot…« I was hurt, and angry, » the alpha continued, « you were an easy target. But you are not the one who tortured me and my men. Izuna told me that it’s thanks to you we’ve been freed... »Tobirama exhaled, hand clenched on the door handle.« Thank you, » the alpha said.The young omega twitched and kept his eyes resolutely on the door. Why did these Uchiha thought they had the right to care ?!« It probably won’t change what I did, how you have felt, » the alpha said, in an almost pleading voice, « but I am sorry… really... »Tobirama looked at him over his shoulder. He could barely distinguish the alpha’s face, and he didn’t know if it was because of his bad sight or the tears welling in his eyes. He bared his teeth.« Well, choke on it, » he snarled, before opening the door and slamming it behind him.He walked furiously in the corridor till he reached the garden inside the Gynaeceum. He sat near the pond, under the weeping willow. He was hungry. Rageously, he crushed the tears that threatened to spill under the heel of his hand. He felt like he was choking. He forced himself to breathe deeply, he didn’t want to have another breakdown. He rocked Kagami gently, seeking to calm himself. The little boy agitated his chubby little hands toward him, as if he understood how angry and powerless Tobirama was feeling.Someone sat next to him with a groan of pain. When Tobirama looked, he discovered Tajima, who was massaging his bad leg with an expression of resignation. He looked at Tobirama with these hawkeyes of his.« Something happened ? » the old omega asked.« I… it’s nothing, » Tobirama croacked, « it’s just… I’m tired... »Tajima said nothing but nodded in understanding. Silence spread between them for long minutes before Tobirama broke it.« How do you do it ? » he asked in a heavy voice.« What do you mean ? » Tajima asked, frowning.« How do you… live with it ? How do you forget ? »Tobirama dragged a hand down his face and sniffled.« I wake up at night feeling their hands on me, » he whispered, « I hear Hashirama’s words in my dreams. I had thought… I had hoped that killing my rapists would erase everything… would… make me feel okay again… but... »« But the hollow is still in your chest and there’s only pain filling it, » Tajima finished.Tobirama nodded, a sob stuck in his throat.« How did you do it ? » he breathed, tears welling in his red eyes.Tajima sighed and threaded a hand through his short grey-streaked dark hair.« I know you want me to tell you you will forget with time, that the ache will disappear, » he said softly.Tobirama nodded, sniffling. Tajima sighed and patted his shoulder in sympathy.« I’m sorry, boy, » Tajima continued, « but the ache will be with you till the end. It will become less painful with time, will reduce to an unpleasant ache, but it will never disappear. »The sob finally escaped Tobirama’s throat and a tear landed on Kagami’s forehead as the young omega folded in half. Tajima rubbed his back in soothing circles.« How did you keep on going ? » Tobirama choked.Tajima exhaled.« I fought the ache, » he said, « I buried it. I found something to concentrate my energy on, my clan, my mate, my children. I pushed the ache away, as deep as I could. My mate helped me a lot with that... »Tobirama shook with restrained sobs and Tajima dragged him into a tight embrace.« What do I do then ? » the young omega cried, tears rolling on his cheeks.« You, boy, » Tajima started, threading his fingers through Tobirama’s silver-white hair, « you find something worth of your loyalty and devotion, you sink your teeth in it and you never let go. »A hiccup made Tobirama’s whole frame shake and Tajima chuckled, kissing the top of the young omega’s head.« With teeth like yours, » he joked, « I’m not really worried about you. »Despite the ache in his chest, Tobirama started laughing. He buried his nose against Tajima’s throat and inhaled the old omega’s scent, ashy and oddly reassuring. Sandwiched between their chests, Kagami started giggling shrillingly.The next day, Tobirama found himself once again on the engawa, this time with Tetsuo and Yumi. Kagami was sleeping in a sling, craddled against his chest. Tetsuo was sitting on his lap, looking up at him with a big smile, and Yumi was sitting next to him as he was patiently explaining them the basics of genjutsu.And then, Izuna came stomping to them and stopped right where they were sitting. Of course, Tobirama’s immediate reaction was to tense like a bowstring. Tetsuo glared at the older alpha. Tobirama gently pushed him behind his body, protective, and he squinted to better distinguish Izuna’s expression. Yumi was huddled against his side, hiding her face in the fabric of his yukata, side-eying Izuna.« What do you want ? » Tobirama asked, voice as cold as steel.Izuna scrunched his nose. He was looking angry, and not for the first time, Tobirama cursed the chakra restraining shackles. Not being able to sense Izuna’s emotions made him feel very vulnerable. And then, Izuna put his hand right under Tobirama’s nose, palm open and fingers extended.« Take my hand ! » he exclaimed.Tobirama blinked, looking between Izuna’s hand and his face. Among shinobi, taking one’s hand was a very intimate gesture. A gesture of complete trust, since they needed them to compose mudras and a wound to one of them could take them off active duty for good.(It was a gesture made between lovers.)« Come on, take my hand ! » Izuna insisted.After a moment of hesitation, Tobirama took Izuna’s hand. It was surprisingly large and warm. The young alpha squeezed, but his grip was not painful, just firm.« I don’t care that you are an omega, » Izuna said, « and I don’t think that you need protection, you’ve kicked my ass enough times to make that clear. »Tobirama shivered.« I am just extremely f@ck@ng angry that people you were protecting with your life thought they had the right to abuse you like that ! » Izuna continued, « you are my rival ! Which means that you are mine to take down ! This is the only reason I care ! »Tobirama felt a strange warmth bloom in his chest. He was feeling Izuna’s pulse under his palm, it hadn’t wavered a bit. He was saying the truth.("Which mean that you are mine to take down.")« Okay, » he croaked in a wavering voice.He let go of Izuna’s hand, feeling oddly warm. Izuna was still scowling angrily, and blushing.« The only reason ! » Izuna repeated, in an oddly high-pitched voice.Tobirama nodded, and Izuna turned on his heels and left briskly, his long jet-black hair swaying behind him. The young omega watched him go, a little dazed. Tetsuo pulled on his yukata to get his attention and Tobirama looked down at him.« Are you okay, Tora ? » he asked in a little voice.« Yeah, don’t worry Tetsuo, I’m okay, » he said, threading his fingers through the boys fluffy black hair.He looked at where Izuna was walking away and chewed on his lower lip, his sharp teeth threatening to break the skin.« I am okay, » he whispered.He looked at Izuna’s back till it blurred with the rest of the environment. Words were storming in his head like a hurricane. It was difficult to think straight.("… you are my rival… you are mine…")Tobirama shuddered.("Your brother doesn’t love you, boy!")He closed his eyes and inhaled.("… you are mine…")His hand was still tingling with Izuna’s warmth.(… a relation of love hate with his rival…)His rival. Izuna was his rival, the wall against which Tobirama had crashed times and times again, the faithful opponent who had allowed Tobirama to become better, faster, stronger.("… mine…")His.Tobirama exhaled shakily, tears welling in his eyes, making his vision even more blurry than it already was. A surprised fit of laughter escaped him.« Tora ? » Tetsuo asked while Yumi hugged his side.« I am okay, Tetsuo, » he chuckled shakily.He ruffled the little boy’s hair, before looking at the two children flanking him. Tears were rolling on his cheeks, but he was smiling. He observed the children, so kind and pure and innocent.("… find something worth of your loyalty and devotion, sink your teeth in it and never let go…")His stomach growled in hunger. Yumi looked at him interrogatively. The young omega kissed her brow, and she blushed in delight. He felt a tickle along his gums, just over his fangs.("… sink your teeth in it…" "... mine…")He looked at where Izuna had disappeared.("… sink your teeth in it…")His jaws were aching.'
