- Izuna Lives AU-
-Stalker Izuna/Female Tobirama-

It was her own mistake for letting this happen, Tobirama thought as she put away another unfinished scroll into the trending pile. Her brother was currently hiding away for lunch, hiding from the enormous load the hokage position took on. Although with her current situation it gave her the perfect place to hid herself. She was currently being chased around the village by a very persistent Uchiha, even though she had made it very clear she didn't want to be in a relationship at the moment. Said Uchiha was none other than Madara's beloved younger brother, and the bane of her existence, Izuna Uchiha.

This wouldn't be happening to her if she had just stopped thinking about a disappointed Hashirama and the consequences of stabbing Izuna with her handy dandy hiraishin in the middle of battle. But it had happened all too fast with her sword just inches away from his side and her mind screaming for her to move forward. To destroy the balance between the two clans who commanded the battle field and give the Senju the edge they needed,but; she couldn't bring herself to move. It was as if the spirits were stopping her from killing the man she had been fighting all her life , stopping her from an unwanted path.

Even if she did want to end Izuna's life after her fatal hesitation she couldn't. By then Madara had caught up to them, completely ignoring his previous battle with Hashirama to try and end her life with a strike from his gunbai. The battle had ended after that with a tactical retreat from the Senju.

From that point on the damned Uchiha had never left her alone. Like a man possessed Izuna went after her right as the treaty was signed. Like the boundaries of their clans just dropped in a day instead of the years everyone expected. She had never seen her clan so defensive over her well being than she did that day with all of the women grabbing her from behind and pulling her back as if he was a disease out to get her. Even Hashirama was oddly against Izuna getting a little too close to her sometimes but that was the big brother instincts doing their job, for Hashirama was too much of a happy and forgiving person for such actions.

Izuna hadn't been like this at first. His original intention of approaching her had been to find out why she didn't stab him. Which made sense to her for apparently she was a 'harsh' and 'cold' woman with the highest Uchiha body count in her clan. Yet she had stopped her attack against him, one of the strongest Uchiha which could've been a high turning point for the Senju.

When he had asked she could only give him a bullshit answer of ,'she didn't feel like having his blood on her hands and dealing with the consequences', before walking (cough running cough) away back to the house she shared with Hashirama.

He had become oddly persistent in pursuing her after that. It was obvious that he wasn't happy with her answer and was expecting a real one since he would always appear from nowhere to question her relentlessly. She never did give him an actual answer after all this time for she didn't know herself but Izuna didn't know that and it would stay that way.

Then,finally; Tobirama had gotten fed up with the chase and stopped Izuna in mid pursuit. She proceeded to warn Izuna that if he didn't leave her alone she would attack him, treaty be damned. At first she had thought the man had gotten it into his thick skull that she wanted to be left alone with how quiet he was being.... only for him to give her that infuriating smirk of his and proceeded to grab her arm. Confused Tobirama had tried yanking her hand away only for Izuna to pull her forward roughly, her chest touching his, putting them in an awkward hugging position for everyone to see.

She could hear the whispers of her own clan while hearing various Uchihas gasp at the fact they seem to be 'hugging' and she hadn't chopped his head off yet. She struggled to get out of his hold after too many people decided getting food for their homes wasn't as interesting as Izuna hugging the Ice princess. He only gave her a grin before tightening his hold on her then bending them down so that their faces were parallel to each other.

That's when she threw the line and proceeded to punch Izuna in the gut... hard.

He doubled over in pain of having all the air in his lungs disappear suddenly while Tobirama had made an escape back to her joint house with her mind set on killing the Uchiha and nothing was going to stop her this time.

After that day his pursuit turned from 20 questions to date request.

The change was a little sudden and completely unwanted. Even Madara was confused on when his little brother decided he liked the idea of putting himself on his own death bed with his interest in dangerous women. Even more confused when he decided that he was going to get Tobirama, of all people, to go out with him.

It didn't stop him unfortunately and the only way to avoid him so far was to stay in the Hokage tower. Even her own house wasn't a safe place anymore since Hashirama loved having guest over to distract him from his work.

She was finally halfway through the last pile of scrolls when she sensed her brother coming back from his break with Madara in tow. Only to sense Izuna behind them with a hurry in his step, which obviously meant he had found her once again and had used Hashirama to get to her.

Dropping the scroll down as fast as she could Tobirama had jumped out of the previously closed window and ran through the streets all the way back to her house.

She honestly should've stabbed him.
