Tifa smiled gently as the couple past her in the hallway. Ever since arriving in Wutai three days ago she had seen Reeve and Shizune getting closer. She saw them walking the grounds together hand in hand like two lovers and even kissing occasionally, though when they thought they were alone or in private. It gave her hope, Reeve needed someone intelligent like him, but stubborn enough to boss him around when he needed it, like when he was in his work room working on something new-he tended to get fixated on his engineering and forget the world outside his mind. And Shizune needed someone who would understand her, that she was an ninja but also treat her as what she was A WOMAN.
Even Iruka seemed to have found someone who interested him, an servant here at the lords vast land and home, Tifa many times saw him watching her quietly and just an hour ago she saw them walking in the garden together side by side, not talking a word but both seemed more than comfortable just being in each others presence.
Kakashi and Genesis were getting along extremely well. Even though Kakashi was on guard duty with the still gravely wounded red head, they seemed to have swapped books and Zack had once told her Genesis threatened to kill ANYONE going anywhere near the white bound book, but he felt comfortable enough with the cyclops to let him read it.
She didn't know if Kakashi was straight or homosexual, the way he had reacted to Chaos' mock attention months ago had made her think he was straight, but now that she had thought about it, it could have been because of who or what the demon was.
He could also be bi.
Tifa understood the reason. During war, surrounded by destruction and death, it was human nature to reaffirm life in the most....instinctual way possible. It was why a lot people are conceived during war, in their case both the Wutain war and during Meteor Fall. Nothing like and life-and-death situation to get the blood pumping and adrenalin flowing.
Even Tifa had to admit she had experienced that rush herself a couple of times, after a good hard battle, the urge to go out and just find some big tough guy, knock him to the ground and.....
But she had better control over herself and dragging her head out of the gutter, Tifa continued her previous train of thought.
Now with the shinobi facing death and destruction nearly every single mission, with every one they went on giving the possibility of death, capture, torture, mutilation or worse-rape, as Shizune said that day things like modesty were only things that hampered you.
When males were there with you, experiencing the same things in battle you were, the same rush, the same fear, the same truama, well it was no wonder a lot of men hooked up afterwards or during war. You felt like no one else could possibly understand you like them.
So though the younger generation of shinobi may say "I'm straight" or I'm homosexual", after experiencing what they did, they learn it wasn't as easy as what was or wasn't between the legs.
It was who understood you, who could feel you and what you had been through.
When you were a guy and had sexual relations with another guy, you also didn't have to worry about suddenly becoming a father for some one time thing, well, except for Naruto.
It explained team 7, or rather Sakura and how she ended up with Lee.
All her life Sakura is told she's the next lady Uchiha, that she was supposed to be Sasuke's wife and grant her mother the privilege of being raised in the higher society of rich bastards of Leaf.
Being drilled into her head all her life, she was convinced the Uchiha heir loved her and would do so the first day they met, so when he DIDN'T, merely meant 'try harder'. When time went on in the team and she began to realize how powerful her two teammates and teacher was compared to her, she began to really notice how perfectly the two boys were together, how they fed each other and fed off each other's past and determination she began to feel left out, especially in face of who and what their teacher was.
When the team broke up and Tsunade took her on as a student, she was granted an reprieve, however it was Lee getting hurt for her that truly made her think. Here was someone like her who knew what it felt like to feel different, like you were weaker to those around you, however when he spoke to her in the woods after her outburst and gave her acceptance of who she was, not could do, she found another like her, but with the strength to use his limitations to his advantage.
At first she was just interested, he was someone with no chakra to use, but who could stand up to even Gaara without fear. And not just that, he wasn't all he seemed. Getting to know the REAL him she saw a young man who was sweet, gentle and caring. Who was incredibly attentive to her and her needs, even if they WERE selfish at times, everything she imagined Sasuke growing up before they met, of course she'd fall for him.
When any day could be your last, who cared about something like gender in an relationship.
Tifa grimaced and suddenly changed direction, headed back the way she'd come. They were at it again! Jeeze, those two were almost as bad as Naruto and Sasuke!
She never knew Reno was such an horndog, let alone loud enough to empty out an entire wing of the building with his....enthusiasm, but she should have known, Reno did everything loudly, typical red head.
It had gotten that way that either Kakashi or Jiriaya tended to use an silence jutsu-the same they used on Naruto and Sasuke-to block off their section of the building whenever they started up, it became an permanent thing, so any of the ninja's could activate it with their chakra.
Not that the two demons were any worse.
It had started with Naruto and Sasuke after all, some times Tifa thought the two TURKS were trying to compete with the demons.
The day after landing and settling in to their guests quarters, Tifa had seen an disguised Anko and Haku outside in the garden playing with the twins, the two babies giggling and making noise while they had pulled faces and spoke to them.
She had wondered where their parents were and went looking, only to hear an familiar fighting and then...OTHER sounds coming from their room.
It happened again and again, Tifa thinking that maybe Naruto was trying to make up for what he missed out on in the last month of his pregnancy plus his near-death experience with DeepGround pushing him to 'reaffirm' he was alive....
Then Reno started up and it soon became almost an competition between them, Tifa could just imagine Reno getting offended by Naruto's constant sex life and deciding he would show Naruto that no one was louder then him at sex, dragging an unenthusiastic but not exactly reluctant Rude with him.
It was surprising how much they shared similar personalities, Reno and Naruto and Rude and Sasuke.
Rounding a corner Tifa almost ran into Sai and Elena walking together, deep in conversation.
That was another couple Tifa found weird. Why was the only TURK woman hanging around the former assassin and spy? Sai was barely learning to show emotion let alone experience it after most his life being taught not to experience them, why were they hanging around together?
When they stopped their hushed conversation at her appearance and looked at her, Tifa raised an eyebrow at the pale young man and motioned behind her.
Hearing the noise, the ex assassin nodded and moved off to activate the seal.
This gave Tifa a chance to ask Elena "why are you paying attention to him. I know he's not your type and you can't be interested."
Elena looked stubborn "what makes you think I'm not."
"Come on, Elena, it's me. In case you've forgot you come to Seventh Heaven regularly. When you get drunk you talk, LOUD about your love-life or lack thereof and the kind of guy you want. Sai is nothing like it."
The other woman looked stubborn "well maybe I'm sick of my type. Maybe I thought that someone more dangerous and deadly than me would be a rush. Maybe I'm sick of people weaker than me, who can't understand the horrors or danger of the job."
Tifa looked her dead-set in the eyes and said "I don't believe you."
"I don't care what you believe" the blonde walked the few steps to Sai's side as he returned and steered him away "let's go" and left with him.
Frowning after them Tifa was worried. She doubted for a second the blonde was really interested in the near-emotionless ex-assassin, which could only mean one thing, Rufus was trying to work his way into the shinobi, trying to recruit some of them.
This was dangerous and could cause strife among them, especially if Lord Godo decided to do so as well, Tifa had to warn Tsunade. The shinobi were loyal to her, if she warned them that both sides would try to win their affections andor trick them away, they would be on the look out for such behavior.
To her surprise the healer had already known "we know, Kikyo told us about it."
"Kikyo?"
The blonde woman told her about how one of the Lords own servants had came to Iruka in secret and told him of an conversation she had heard between Rufus and Lord Godo, how Rufus warned the Wutain against trying to recruit any more of the shinobi after an certain incident because he had every intention of doing so himself.
Godo had challenged his 'right' to do so, stating he had a lot more to gain as well as offer that the group could actually use and essentially told him 'may the best man win'.
The servant had been there since Yuffie was an child and despite her obvious flaws loved the young girl like a little sister and when she saw how happy Yuffie was with Haku and Iruka, how attentive she was during the lessons as apposed to the ones she had previously had with those SUPPOSED to teach her, she couldn't keep her mouth shut, especially when she saw how upset the previous incident had made the girl, how mad at her father.
Well, there had been TWO incidents really, both Yuffie was mad with, but the second pissed her off.
The first one was between Vincent and Godo, an meeting in the Lords chambers which consisted of low voices and some muffled hash words. Tifa had just caught the end of the muffled conversation-something about 'disappointments' and 'half-breeds' and at first thought it was about Naruto or maybe Sasuke by the way Vincent stormed out and flowed past her-and for a few hours afterwards Tifa could sense an pissed off Chaos outside in the wilds trashing anything he could- but soon learned the truth from the blonde boy himself.
"Father's half Wutain" Naruto explained as he breast-feed the twins during her shift in guard duty "his dad was a researcher from Modeiheim and his mom was from here. His dad was staying as a guest here while looking for information on Chaos and Omega when they met. His mom was an young lady also staying here with her husband and they met and fell in love.
But because she was already married he was conceived and born illegitimate and there was this big thing when he was growing up. Father hates coming here, they treat him like an half-breed" Naruto's face twisted and Tifa had the feeling than if anyone had the nerve to say anything about Vincent in front of him, he would show them what an illegitimate half-breed could do.
Somehow it got back to Yuffie and Tifa had the sneaking suspicion that Naruto had told her, because every time someone looked wrong at Vincent, before he could do his customary glare, the young Wutain Ninja would glare at them "do you have a PROBLEM with an fellow Wutain?!"
Baffled they would stutter their denial and look away, leaving the ninja to grab Vincent's arm and excitedly steer the confused man away with "let's spar, Vincent!"
"I wanna spar too!" Naruto protested, trying to stand before he was pushed back into his seat with "not now you're not."
"But I'm bored!" he protested.
So began Naruto's lessons on materia and it's use and manipulation.
Later Tifa heard Yuffie yelling at her father about it. She sounded almost in tears as she said that he was her friend and she cared about him, how people were being SO MEAN to him now and she hated that and wanted them to stop, that as far as she was concerned Vincent was fully Wutain and had more honor than a thousand of those 'guys' out there who were, that how were they supposed to rebuild and restore Wutai to its former glory when they treated each other like that?
She sounded so forlorn that for the first time since knowing her, Tifa realized the girl was doubting her entire purpose in life in the face of the cruelty of her own people.
"No wonder he never stays anywhere very long" she sniffed "how can he when his own homeland rejects him?"
Tifa kept going when the next sounds was of Godo comforting his daughter.
She talked to Vincent about it later. Now she knew why Vincent had been so uncomfortable when they were in Wutai last while looking for Sephiroth. It wasn't the reaction of a man freshly awoken from an roughly fifty year sleep and uncomfortable around crowds and other people, it was a man in his homeland, afraid of being recognized and mocked. It explained the joining TURK so young, he probably wanted to get out of there as fast as he could so he could become something and someone in control of his life instead of an victim, only to encounter Luecetcia and Hojo on his first case.
Vincent told her he was used to their attitude and hate by now.
The second incident involved Godo trying to persuade Iruka and Haku to stay in Wutai to teach other local children WITHOUT going through Tsunade first.
Iruka just stiffly told him he would go nowhere without his 'little brother' and do wherever his Hokage commanded of him. Haku was horrified at the thought of leaving Denzel and Marlene. When Godo told him he'd be teaching OTHER children, he flatly refused, stating it was his purpose to teach the two children and then Grimoire and Aeris when they were old enough, refusing to listen too another word.
When Yuffie found out she again confronted her father who explained how he thought that they could teach her in Wutai as well as other children.
Seeing it as it as her father trying to get her to stay in her homeland so he could marry her off, Yuffie turned on the waterworks, telling him how "the guys need me in Midgar in case other bad guys turn up" and how important she was to them. When that didn't work she tried the "I'm restoring Wutai by spying on Midgar from the inside" angle.
Finally she admitted it, she was falling for Haku. This didn't seem much of a surprise to Godo and Tifa was shocked to learn Godo thought the young man WAS from their land! Did Yuffie tell him that or did he assume? She had to admit, the other looked remarkably like he was from here, but surely Godo wouldn't....
He would, telling his daughter he would consent to the marriage and talk to Tsunade, but Tifa had the feeling that that was also an trick, after all, Yuffie marrying Haku would not only give Godo powerful grandchildren with an kekkai genkai, but an excuse to have the young male hang around to teach Wutain children to be shinobi for their land.
Tifa was just glad Haku's loyalty to Denzel and Marlene would mean he'd refuse, and any act towards forcing him would be met with the combined might of every single one of the shinobi, AND AVALANCHE, not to mention Shinra when Rufus realized what the Lord was trying to do.
She just hoped that Yufffie didn't take Haku's rejection negatively.
Any further thought was cut off by a scream up ahead and a crash, Naruto's voice calling his female teammates name in panic.
Tifa ran towards the sounds.
She found Naruto out of bed, supporting the pink haired young woman who was on her feet but bent over, holding her stomach. At first Tifa thought they were attacked and the girl injured, but then she saw and heard the way she was breathing, clutching herself and the growing puddle under her "arh hell" she muttered.
The young woman had gone into early labor.
Her voice alerted them of her presence and Naruto looked relieved "Tifa! She's too early and I don't know where baachan is! Teme went looking for her, but he can't find her anywhere!"
Meaning she'd been in labor a while, but her water only just broke.
Tifa moved to take his place and eased the girl into a chair "call Sasuke and tell him to get an doctor. Have you tried to find Shizune?"
"She's not answering either!" he said helplessly.
Tifa had an idea, chances were, the woman was still with Reeve. Tapping an code into her PHS and hitting send she had only seconds before it rang, the engineerdirector of the WRO's voice urgent as he asked "what is it, Tifa? Who is harmed?!"
"Sakura is in labor. The baby is early and we can't find Tsunade. Sasuke's searching for her but it's just me, Naruto and her here right now."
"This IS important. I will search for Lee and get some servants to help, Shizune is here" he handed the mobile over and the woman told her what to do to make the young woman comfortable meanwhile. Then she asked "have you tried calling Jiriaya? I saw the two of them setting out to the wilderness outside the compound together early this morning. I don't know what they were planning on doing, but it wouldn't surprise me if they were looking for threats and laying traps around the land."
"Ok, we'll try him" Tifa added, nodding to Naruto as she headed to the bathroom to get some things, the blonde pulling out his own to call the toad sage from his teammates side, talking soothingly to her.
Shizune and some servants arrived just as he hung up, Sasuke following to move to his mates side as the blonde frowned at their teammates obvious pain, asking "will she be alright? She still has two months left before she's supposed to give birth. It's too early."
"It doesn't matter, Naruto, she's in labor now. Once her water broke the baby's coming no matter what we say. We can just make it easier and hope the baby is fine."
"what do you mean by that!?" Naruto looked like he was about to panic, clutching his mates shoulders.
"She hid him from us, from everyone. No one's had a chance to examine her before a month ago and then the OBGYN did. We don't know what sort of state he's in."
Before Naruto could speak they were interrupted by an green flash and familiar cry of her name as Lee entered the room, running to his girlfriend's side who panted his name and grabbed his arm "Lee, he's coming, he doesn't want to wait."
"It's alright my Blossom, Shizune-san and Tsunade-hime will make sure he's safe and well, that our little Ryõshi will be born healthy."
"Huntsman? You named your child Huntsman?" Tsunade appeared in the doorway, taking everything in in a glance "Uchiha, take your mate to another room then everyone else but the father, Shizune and those helping the birthing process clear out NOW!"
But...." Naruto protested as his mate picked him up and, maintaining the masquerade of his badly injured state, he started to carry him away with "come on, dobe, let's visit with Genesis. I'm sure he's lonely and when he's lonely he gets himself depressed."
They swept from the room, everyone else not necessary following.
Knowing that the birth of a baby could be a long process, Tifa decided to blow off some steam, moving to the large open ground area that the ninja's had adopted as a place to practice and spar. She found Vincent already there in a far corner, practicing some kata's with Cerebrus, his movements slow and graceful as he concentrated on his movements.
To her surprise not far from him was Rufus mimicking him. She had no idea that Rufus Shinra knew any, but Tseng probably taught him and he seemed interested in watching Vincent do it and mimicking some of the more complicated steps. She supposed it was because Vincent was an expert sharp-shooter, still the unbeaten champion of any TURK competition since the FOUNDING of the company and the chance of Vincent willingly teaching him.....
IF the amount of shots he had used trying to hit Kadaj or the container during the time of the revenants was anything to go by.....he REALLY needed help.
Reno and Rude were sparring not far away, close enough should Rufus need them but with enough distance to allow freedom of movement, Reno egging his partner on with jibes and teasing.
On the far opposite side, Gai was training with his two free students. Neji and Tenten were fighting hand-to-hand, movements so fast that anyone looking would have trouble keeping up. However Lord Godo, laying in the shade of an nearby sakura tree, was watching with vast interest and obviously following every move.
Tifa headed towards them.
The two stopped, not even puffing yet and the female asked her what was happening with Lee.
"Sakura's in labor, the baby's two months early" she said simply.
The girl's eyes widened in horror and realization. Neji turned to Gai and bowed "I'd like to go and help in any way I can, sensai."
The man in green nodded his permission "go aid your teammate in bringing a new flame into our world!" and struck a good-guy pose. Neji ignored this, said goodbye to his teammate and apologized for cutting training short, then left.
Tenten sighed "what am I going too do now?" Before the green-clad man could speak, Tifa smiled "I actually came out to blow off some steam, want to spar?" Tenten grinned widely "sure!" and they got into starting positions.
What followed was Tifa able to fully let loose against a sparring partner more her equal in size and shape, someone who didn't pull punches on her.
A couple of hours later they both rested under a tree together, panting, laughing about nothing. "That was great!" Tenten laughed when she had recovered enough "if you ever want to let off steam again, I'd be glad to help!"
Tifa laughed as well "sure."
They became aware of the sounds of clapping and cheering and looked around to find a large group of people had been watching them. Yuffie was jumping up and down excitedly, Lord Godo-eyes wide with awe and fascination-some of the ninja, including Iruka and Haku, were watching in interest, the other people on the field who had been doing their own thing with various emotions.
Now he had their attention, Godo motioned at some servants who came forward, handing the two brunettes an cold bottle of water each.
Both women took it and drained the contents quickly.
Godo spoke "may I say, ladies, I have never seen such an interesting display of fighting skill and speed in two women who were just sparring in all my life."
Tenten blushed but Tifa spoke "I usually spar with Zack or Cloud, but the two hold back most of the time because their afraid of hurting me with their enhancements. Tenten is like me, pure talent and experience, she has her chakra, I have mako. That makes us even and both of us able to let loose."
"I see" Godo nodded and Iruka spoke to her with a smile "Tenten was always an great fighter, I think you as one of my students would have been an interesting time, especially with the two of you together."
Tifa blushed this time, pleased, although she didn't really know why. Maybe it was being told she was worthy of being or even being compared to, a shinobi like the black haired girl beside her.
"You were great!" Naruto called, leading her head to snap around and see the young man, looking pale, bundled up and laid out on one of the lawn chairs, Sasuke by his side with Itachi beside HIM and watching her, heat and interest in his eyes. It seemed working off some steam to let herself wind down her arousal had just aroused HIM.
Genesis was on Naruto's other side, eyes on her and he nodded at her look, one warrior to another.
The two brunettes helped each other up and headed towards the group "how's Sakura?"
Naruto smiled "her and the baby's fine. He's strong and baachan says as long as they're careful around him for a while until he's able to get stronger, he'll continue to be fine. You should go see him, he's so cute considering who his parents are" and laughed when he was swatted over the head for being impolite.
Tifa decided to do so and looked at Itachi "are you going to come see him?"
Itachi shook his head "I think Sasuke and I shall also spar for a while. We haven't had a chance to properly do so since he was a child."
Realizing Itachi wanted to bond with his brother some more by testing his skills, she nodded and with Tenten in tow, left to visit the bun-haired girls teammate and his new son.
