You stood in the middle of a quiet room, it was full of expensive furniture and paintings. Even just the colour of the walls screamed out wealth

The man of whom didn't seem to grow older by even a day sat with boredom at his desk
His blue hair was no longer, reaching his shoulders. Golden jewelry adorned his ears, nose and neck

His green eyes that faded into orange analyzed your figure head to toe, his finger drummed on the hard wood of his desk as he hummed in thought, he definitely knew the woman in front of him but who was she?

He didn't recognize the almost grey skin and ominous clothing. Even with the layers she wore, her curves were definitely visible. All that he could think of when he looked at her was that she would be the perfect dancer

"Do I know you?" His eyebrow curved in question

You pressed your knuckles against your hip and with the other hand, you rubbed the back of your neck awkwardly

"Do you perhaps recognize my voice?" You asked, even though you knew that your voice had definitely changed in the past year. It had gotten deep and raspy, as if someone was scratching your throat

"When did we first meet?" He stood up and made his way to you
"Around twenty years ago maybe, I'm not sure"

He looked at you up and down as he circled around your figure

He stopped his feet once he stood behind you "you... you have a strong back for a woman. I can see your muscles through the shirt" he reached his hand out and brushed his fingertips along the width of your back

A chill ran down your spine at the touch of a man but you ignored it, he was one of the only people that could help you right now

You lifted your hands and gently grabbed your hood "ah, will you show me your hair colour? Is it a nice colour?" You dropped the fabric and it fell onto your back

Aki stared at the colour of your hair, it reflected perfectly with the soft hues of the rays of sunset that shone through the windows of his office

An image of a young girl with h/c hair appeared in his mind, she had a curvy figure but he couldn't make out her face

He circled back to stand in front of you and he folded his arms over his chest
"Why don't you remove that mask of yours? Maybe if I see your eyes I'll recognize you"

Your lips seperated as if you were about to say something but you slid your hand under the hair that covered your forehead and you lifted your hair to reveal the diamond mark on your forehead

Aki's eyes widened in shock

"There's only one person I know with that mark-"

"Aki-san, I need your help. Badly"

Aki calmed down a little and a soft smile formed on his lips "with what? I'll help you with whatever it is you desire"

"I need you to come with me, to the leaf village." "Simply that?" He asked

"I need you... to come as my supposed to be husband" you sweatdropped

Aki's eyes widened "I greatly apologize for this, but even though I speak to you in a romantic way I do not dare to be the slightest romantically involved with a married woman. Madara uchiha's woman to be exact"

You sighed and reached your hand out to your mask, you took it off and with the other hand. You dug your nails into your scared eye

"Y/n- what are you doing!"

He must've thought you've went completely insane at this point, you were doing things with no explanation

You stared at the bloody ball in your hand as you closed an eye, but the eye that was closed wasn't the one you gouged out

It was the eye that was perfectly fine, but if that eye was closed, and the other was in your hand. How were you able to see in an amazing vision?

"Aki-san, you see my eye in my hand right?" You asked and you lifted your head to look at him

Aki sweatdropped as he stared into the e/c hue that was open

"The reason for my absence for that year Aki-san was because someone took me to a spot far into the mountains. It is not near any village, it is in the middle of absolutely nowhere"

"Then how do you explain what just happened with your eye?" He asked
You balled your hand into a fist and reached it out above his own

"Take it" you said as you dropped the eye onto the palm of his hand

But what he saw wasn't an eyeball, it wasn't because of how bloody it was. Instead, it was a small round pebble.

He looked at the floor where the pool of blood once was, it was gone, and so was the blood on your face

"What happened to you?" He asked and you went silent for a few moments

"I- I don't know, all I know is that... this isn't my body, my body of this time I suppose."

"What do you mean" Aki raised an eyebrow in confusion
He stared at the mark on your forehead "if you're talking about how you don't seem to have aged it's because of the mark on your forehead-"

You shook your head "no, the person who took me away took away my body and left it in some place I do not know of. But me right now, it's the me of when I was twenty two years old. It's like they went back in time and just grabbed me of twenty two years old and left my body of around thirty years old behind"

"Do you know what I mean?" You asked him

Aki seemed confused but also shocked at all of this
"And- I cannot, let Madara find out who I am because if that happens then I'm afraid that I'll completely forget my goal of which is to find my body of this time."

You looked at the man infront of you with watery eyes
"Aki-san, I'm afraid that if I even look at him I'll forget everything I have to do and I'll just go back with him"

Aki's mouth was agape
"So you wish for me to come with you as your husband so that uchiha Madara stays away from you?"
You nodded and placed your hood back over your head

"I believe that, he will probably notice me from miles away but if he sees me with you as your 'wife' and with a complete different appearance he will think it's not me"

Aki sighed "and what about your children?"

"... they won't... they won't recognize me."
