The lightest memories

Filler : The eyes of a princess

Uzume was wandering through the streets of Konoha. Her eyes drifting towards the Uchiha village. Her old home. Her eyes were blurring. She had to quickly leave the village due to the tears and blood scent lingering the streets. When she looked up,she groaned. Having seen Sakura and Naruto standing by the gate, Uzume knew she wasn't going to leave so easily.
"Hey..isn't that...?"
So much for looking for another way out.
Uzume sighed,before walking towards the gate. Seeing Sakura,Naruto, and a few others she has yet to meet during the chunin exam.
"Uzume! " She turned around and saw Chen and Koi running towards her. Her glare softening towards the boys,paying no mind to the Konoha shinobi.
"Did you pay your respects?" Koi asked. Uzume nodded, the wind blowing into her hair. Sing a song that allowed her hair to dance in it's tune.
"We should go back now. I'm sure Mama Tosai is expecting us any time soon." Uzume said,Chen nods and Koi just let's out a soft sigh.
"I wanted to stop by the Ramen shop before leaving. " He said,kicking a rock ,and looking up at the gate.
"We can stop to get food somewhere else. " Chen said, before looking over at Uzume. Hoping she will side with him. Uzume can feel someone staring at her a bit more than the others. Her eyes flicking to her Sharingan, and meeting Kakashi. He had that eyeless smile.
"Leaving so soon,Uzume? The Hokage wouldn't mind you and your team staying here a bit longer. " The Jonin said. Uzume's eyes went back to normal. She can feel Sakura and some blonde haired girl gossiping about her.
"We can't... We have somewhere to be." She simply said. Kakashi nods and steps aside, Uzume was about to walk out.
" I bet she's looking for Sasuke too.. " She heard Naruto whisper. Uzume sighed a frustrating sigh, and made her way to the gate.
"Uzu-hime.. " She heard a woman's voice. A voice that made her stop. Everyone called her Uzu-hime. From her mother, to Itachi. All of the people she had loved died by a blade.
Uzume turned her head back and stared at the woman. Older. Long blonde hair. A blue diamond on her forehead. She looked like a concerned mother.
"I've heard stories about you... from your mother. That's what she would call you.." Uzume glared at the woman and clicked her tongue. She was a Senju, an enemy to her clan. Uzume knew about her clan and the quarrels they've faced with the Senju. It was Madara Uchiha who helped found this very village, and his own clan betrayed him for it. Had Uzume met the man,and understood him, she would stay by his side. Just so he didn't feel so alone.
"Senju... " she mumbled. Tsunade grinned, but that grin faded when she met the fierce glare of the Uchiha princess.
She looks like.... like him!
"I have no interest in staying here. My only concern is getting back to Suna. " She said.
"We're to escort you three back. For safety measures. " Kakashi said. "Members of the Akatsuki are still around, and Uzume... "
Uzume narrowed her eyes and sighed. Having known what the jonin was referring to,Uzume shook her head. Not caring about if Itachi was wandering around or not. She needed to go back to Shiro.
"I can handle it on my own." Uzume crossed her arms and kept walking. Her staff in her hands.
Tsunade sighed. Omichi wasn't this troublesome, how did her mother put up with her? Or was this her father coming out of her?
" Kazekage's orders. I can't let anyone Chunin leave Konoha alone. Even if you're an Uchiha. " Tsunade had rested her hands on Uzume's shoulder. "I promised your mother that I'll protect you anyway I can. "
Uzume clenched her fists tight. Her eyes watering and tears had spilt.
"Then where were you when I had to leave Konoha? The mean villagers picking on me because I was from here? The bad names they've called me. Mini-Madara. Uchiha Monster. I stayed in my apartment starving for a meal. Yet Aunt Tsunade was to protect me.." Tsunade looked away.
"Uzume, that's going too-"
"Shut up!" Uzume snapped out at the Sannin's student. Sakura was taken back. " You can have the right to speak to me when you've done something useful for yourself ! Sitting there waiting for Sasuke to come back won't do you any good,neither is running to Naruto for your problems . knowing that you're lying to yourself! "
Uzume flipped her hair.
"And what exactly have you done for yourself, Uzume? " Kakashi asked. Uzume looked over at the former ANBU captain .
"I've stopped waiting for those two to come back to me. I plan to kill Itachi myself, so Sasuke can be free. I'll rely on myself and only myself. " Kakashi noticed the glare in her eyes. The look on her face when she held her Sharingan.
