Hidden Brothers

Chapter 22

Hey guys!

I hope you're all enjoying yourselves as this story progresses each time! To all readers who are following my story "Papa...", the final chapter has been updated and I've completed it at last. Also if you didn't know, I have another story that was on hold because of it and I'll begin to resume its plot at last so if you're following it as well then watch out for the next chapter. It will take some time to recall back but I will do my best!

Anyway, let's end my babbles here and enjoy this chapter!

Oh, in case you're wondering why Tsunade is suddenly Hokage when Sarutobi is still alive. She was appointed as the Godaime Hokage a year after the massacre of the Uchiha clan and only acts in duty whenever Sarutobi is away from the village for duty reasons. In other words, Sarutobi is not around currently but he's not dead yet!

"Uchiha!"

Sapphire eyes snap up from the ground as their owner jumped in a startle, turning focus to annoyed honey browns of their owner's leader behind the desk that separates them. Fingers interlock together and the blonde Hokage rests her chin on them as she stares hard at the figure before her, noting the unusual behavior easily.

"Did you hear what I just said??" A blink answers her and she sighs heavily "I'll say it again..... Is it possible that I can get in contact with Tsukikage Hikari Midori..."

".... What?..." Another sigh left Tsunade once more and she leans back against her seat

"You've been acting strangely ever since your uninvited guest appeared....." Tsunade said calmly "Any reason why have you gone soft?"

"Nothing that is important for your worries in any involvement of this village, Hokage-sama...." Kianza replies politely "I assure you that it is only personal reasons to my unusual behavior...."

"If you say so...." A frown pressed on Tsunade, disbelief pooling at the bottom of her stomach "Anyway back to my question.... Is it possible?"

"It is possible, but you can't simply just send a messenger bird of your own to the village.... It will only come back here with your letter...." Kianza replies "If you wish for a request from Tsukikage-sama, I will prepare a messenger bird from my land for you in 10 minutes...."

"Then proceed with it...." Tsunade picks up her pen and begins to scribble her letter on the fresh sheet "I want to know her decision as soon as possible.... How long will it take for the message to be delivered?...."

"It will take an hour to reach the village and another to return here...." Sapphire eyes narrow slightly as Tsunade resumes to complete her letter "Hokage-sama....."

"Nani?"

".... I don't mean to intrude any of unneeded knowing business.... But if possible.... Why seek for her assistance?"

That made Tsunade pause in her writing, causing concern and suspicion in Kianza. With a sigh, Tsunade puts her pen down and looks to the patiently waiting raven. Her eyes darken with worry and trouble.

".... There has been rumors that Akatsuki is aiming for anyone who are familiar the secret to the Hikari clan and the hidden jutsus of revival...." Honey browns harden at the stiffen reaction "As far as I'm aware, your adopted mother.... The Tsukikage is the only one who is born pure Hikari that resides in another village.... What contain the secrets of her clan are forbidden jutsus that only those who hold citizenship or the blood of the Hikari clan in legendary Hikarikagure.... In other words, former citizens and blood born Hikari shinobis who left the legendary village are being targeted.... And the only ones who carried the Hikari blood in their veins are the Tsukikage-"
