“Kushina, what’s wrong?” Natsumi asked once they got to their room. Naruto and Jiraiya had a room next to them, but both Kushina and Natsumi didn’t feel… comfortable sharing with a giant pervade. “And don’t tell me nothing.”

“She’s Mito’s granddaughter, but it seems her grandson was killed in the last war… or maybe even the second on.”

“Kushina, I’m sorry.”

“Natsumi, there’s nothing to be sorry about. I most likely would have never meet you,” Kushina said while sitting on her bed. Her black nightgown pooling on the bed, covering her legs. “And you’re family to me, but so is Tsunade and I can’t believe how far she’s let herself fallen.”

“What now?”

“I’ll help her, but only if she’ll let me.”

“How?”

“The Miranda… a bloodline, which doesn’t have that many side effects,” Kushina explained looking at the roof. “However, it leaves the body vulnerable. Pulling the spirit into a part of the mind space, if that person where to be killed, then they die in real life, this is also true for me. If I were to be killed using the Miranda, either inside or outside my mind, then I die.”

“Why is it worth the risk?”

“Training… when you’ve mastered the Miranda, then you can use their techniques,” Kushina said a sad smile. “Even then that part it rarely used. Once a soul enters a person’s Miranda, then no one else can use it. In life or death situations, one of them can take over the users body. I can only let someone do that for five minutes.”

“You’d really have to trust them.”

“Trust them… you just have to know. That they don’t want you dead.”

“What about trust?”

“Natsumi… never take anything at face value, this piece of information, will save your life.”

“What about you?”

“Never give your trust out willing, it’s the reason,” Kushina said looking at her sister with sad eyes. “It’s the reason some teams don’t work. The reason, we Uchiha don’t give our friendship put easily. You don’t have to worry about Naruto and I, because a protective Uchiha, is a scary Uchiha.”

“I’ll be careful, big sister.”

“That’s all I can ask for.”

“Kushina? Are you asleep?” Tsunade asked while knocking at the door. She felt silly, like a child knocking on their parent’s door. She should’ve just left till morning, but she didn’t know if they would still be there. Jiraiya and Hiruzen had been trying for years to get her to go back home.
