The Uchiha Princess

~.Chapter - 26.~

Makaira sat beside a sleeping Kakashi, she had healed him to the best of her capabilities which was nit much but enough to make sure he doesn't die on them or well take forever to recover. She had been spending her time here since she was still a little mad Sasuke for almost killing himself, well, more than little mad to be honest. But she could understand his feelings as well, she had been trained for worse as the Princess of the clan. People would think the since she is, was, a Princess of the Uchiha clan she must have bee trained for just cooking, cleaning, children, managing and stuff like that but no, her training was more than just duties towards her household. It included her duties towards her clan, she was taught about poison, weapons, stratagizing, leading and fighting. How can she forget the training to withstand torture and pain, how to escape and whatnot. It helped that her brother would help her with her training whenever he could.

Kakashi was someone she met through Shisui, he introduced her to Kakashi who at that time was still getting a hang of being social and Makaira was just the person for it. She was able to bring Kakashi out of his shell and made him feel comfortable with her even though she was just a kid but she had never been much for childish behaviour. Kakashi would also help her with training and take her out for ramen and dangos when Shisui would be gone for long missions. She would enjoy the competition between Kakashi and Guy, it was fun when she would be made the judge. It was very amusing to her. After Shisui was gone, Kakashi would join her whenever she would sit at the edge of the cliff where his body was found, he would never say anything just si there with her as long as she wanted to before walking her home and making sure she gets there safe.

Seeing him collapse like that did give her good scare, she was scared to lose another brother but the guilt that she could have helped was more heavy on her. There was no way she would have defeated Zabuza but She was strong enough to help. Kakashi groaned as he stirred, Makaira was instantly by his side, checking his vitals and temperature. "How are you feeling, Kakashi nii? I think you should keep resting." Makaira asked him, her eyes soft with worry as she held his hand.

"I've been better, it'll be a week before I can move normally" Kakashi groaned in pain as he sat up. 

"See. It's better if you don't move, so just lie down" she said more firmly this time.

"Mmm. Alright" Kakashi reluctantly did  as he was told. Just as he laid down everyone came rushing into the room, more specifically Naruto and Sakura.

"Sensei is coming around!" Naruto said.

"Makaira" said Sasuke, he walked towards her as she had been in this room ever since they got here tending to Kakashi, he bends down on her level and embraced her close to himself.

"..." She was still a bit pissed at him and didn't know how to react right now. Sasuke pulled away from the hug and pulled her towards him making her lean on him

'Hmph'

"Listen Sensei. You're Sharingan is amazing and everything, but if it puts that much strain on you, maybe it's not worth it" Sakura kneels between Makaira and Kakashi's futon

"Sorry" Kakashi Sensei apologized but Makaira interrupted him with a tired smile on her face, "You don't need to say sorry, Sensei. If it wouldn't have been for you they would have been dead and I would have probably been captured or enslaved. So if anything Thank you." Kakashi couldn't help but give a closed-eye smile to Makaira. Sakura glared at her for counterdicting her and they was she was leaning against Sasuke was making her dislike her more but Makaira couldn't possibly help her since Sasuke was holding her against him not wanting let go and risk her slipping away again. He wanted to apologize to her but she was so angry at him that she was not even letting him talk.

"Well, you did take down one of the most powerful Ninja Assassins, so we'll be safe for a while" Mister Tazuna stated. Makaira raised a finger as she went to speak but paused she didn't know if she should bust him bubble so soon.

"Right. But, you know that boy with the mask? What about him?" Sakura asked.

"He's from the Elite Tracking Unit of the Village Hidden in the Mist. Those masks are only worn by the most Elite Shinobi. The Anbu Black Ops, also known as the Inferno Squad, destroy all traces of a Rouge Ninja'd corpse. Shinobi's body contains many secrets. Ninjutsu, Chakra, special medicines used on his body. These are the secrets of his village. If his enemies find them, his people will be in grave danger. For instance, if I were to die at the hands of an enemy, he would try to analyze my Sharingan. In the worst case, my entire Jutsu could be stolen and used against our home village. It is the sacred duty of the Shinobi trackers to prevent this, to keep the village secrets safe. If a Ninja betrays his village, the trackers hunt him down, eliminate him, and obliterate every trace of his existence. That's their speciality" Kakashi Sensei answered Sakura before looking at Makaira knowing they both were worried about the same thing.

Makaira had hardly gotten any rest while she was tending to Kakashi, even though her tired eyes remained in their usual soft stare but the bags under her eyes told a different story and the cherry on the top was when she swayed a little to the side before sinking into Sasuke's arms, her body finally won the fight and took the rest it deserved.

"Do you still feel dizzy Makaira?" Naruto asked concerned.

"Just a little bit" She answered, feeling a little confused at the boy as she tried to remember what happened exactly and why was she laying down all covered up in a blanket, though she appreciates it before it felt nice and warm.

"You better lie down then," Sasuke says as he gently pushed her down the futon.

Sasuke stared at her as she stared back at him with a pout and glare. For someone who can be deadly she sure looked cute to him at that moment. He managed to stop himself from smiling and instead he asked,"What is it?"

Makaira looked away from him with a 'hmph', which made Sasuke more confused as she never 'hmph' at him, unless she is mad or feeling grumpy.

"Did I do something? If so, tell me" He asked Makaira, who raised a brow at him before narrowing her eyes at him. He freaking tries to kill himself and now he wants to know if he did something. For someone who is said to be a genius, he sure is an idiot.

"Figure it out yourself, Baka." She whispered harshly loud enough for him to hear as she turns to face the other side and pulled the blanket over her head.

Makaira was being cold to Sasuke since they had helped Kakashi Sensei out with the Rouge in the forest. She was okay most of it but after that, she looked at him with a betrayed look in her eyes which painfully made Sasuke's heart clutch.Sasuke tried to talk to her on numerace occasion but she would avoid him.

'Tsk. What did I do?'

Random Fact: Wood Froges can hold their pee for up to 8 months. Wood frogs in Alaska have been known to hold their urine for up to eight months, sticking it out through the region's long winters before relieving themselves once temperatures increase. The while it hibernates, with special microbes in their gut that recycle the urea (urine's main waste) into nitrogen.
