Akira swiftly made his way through the houses in the Uchiha compound, carrying his mother and aunt until he reached the east side of the clan's walls. The heartbreaking screams from the north entrance gate echoed in the distance.
Seeing the tall walls that had protected the clan for so many years, Akira didn't hesitate as he jumped over them.
A shrill cry could be heard far off.
"There's trouble at the north gate of the clan! We need to support them!"
"Captain! There's a fire in the compound!"
"Uchiha, to arms!!!" The captain cried loudly, unsheathing his sword and disappearing from the scene, his group following closely behind.
Akira didn't stop, even as he saw the group of Uchiha guards rushing back into the clan to defend it. His objective was clear: ensure his women survived the ordeal. He quickly ran north.
"Akira..." Sayuri tearfully whispered as her son carried her.
"There's nothing we can do, Mom. We need to think about ourselves first," Akira stated coolly.
Sayuri fell silent but pressed her face even more against her son's neck.
Not long afterward, Akira stopped outside a flower shop—the one run by the Yamanaka family. The shop was filled with beautiful colors and scents that wafted even into the streets. It was also the house of the Yamanaka Patriarch and the home of Akira's girlfriend, Ino.
Akira softly set his mother down and then passed his aunt to her, carrying her in a princess hold. He knocked on the house door.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
As he waited, he noted that the streets were already deserted. There were no civilians walking around. It seemed Danzo and the rest had done their work, ensuring civilians went home earlier that day.
Akira sighed at the situation they were facing.
"Everything is going to be alright, love," Sayuri said softly, her voice filled with tenderness as she looked at her son's strong back.
Akira smiled, hearing his mother's words. "Yes, it will be. I'll make sure of it." He straightened his posture even more.
"One moment!" A man's voice sounded from inside.
*Click* The door opened.
The man who appeared in front of Akira and Sayuri was surprised to see them but quickly regained his composure.
"Akira-chan, Sayuri-san. Hello. Are you here for Satsuki and Akane-chan?" Inoichi Yamanaka greeted them with a welcoming smile. "They are with my daughter in her room."
"Hi, Yamanaka Patriarch. Yes, we're here for my sister and my cousin. Could you please call them? We're a bit short on time," Akira said with a wry smile to his future father-in-law.
"Hello, Inoichi-san," Sayuri also greeted him.
"Akira, Sayuri. Is there anything I can do for both of you?" Inoichi asked, his face turning serious.
Akira already knew that the Yamanaka Patriarch would be aware of the situation, being the head of one of the big ninja families of Konoha. This move against the Uchiha couldn't be a secret to everyone.
"Thanks for your generosity, Inoichi-san. But there's nothing you can do at this moment. Tomorrow will be a new day, and maybe I'll take Ino for dinner if you allow it," Akira scratched his cheek and added mischievously.
Inoichi was left dumbfounded by Akira's answer, understanding what he meant but also a little amused by the young man's gall.
"Akira!" Sayuri chided her son. "Sorry, Inoichi."
"Haha. There's no problem, Sayuri-san. After all, Akira is Ino's boyfriend, and I like to see how happy she is with him." Inoichi guffawed. "Alright, Akira-chan. I'll call the girls so you can go, but I want to see you honor your promise to come and take Ino for dinner."
"Hai!" Akira chuckled and nodded.
.....
"Son, where are we going now?" Sayuri asked as they walked out of the Yamanaka district, accompanied by Akane and Satsuki.
"Aunt, what's wrong with Mom?" Satsuki asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, dear. She's just tired and fainted. She'll be fine after she wakes up," Sayuri reassured her niece.
"What's happening, Aniue?" Akane asked quickly, noting her mother's tension, Mikoto's state, and her brother's alertness.
"There's a situation in the clan. We can't go back there," Akira answered vaguely. "Mom, we'll go to the house of you and Aunt's closest friend—Kushina's home."
"I'm sure Kushina will allow us to stay with her for the night. Tomorrow everything will be fine," Akira continued as they walked.
"Oh. Kushina, eh?" Sayuri said thoughtfully.
"Aniue, can't you tell us more? Why are we in the dark?" Akane puffed her cheeks at her brother's vague answer.
"Yes, Akira. We wanna know," Satsuki added, supporting Akane after seeing that her mother was fine.
"Girls, later I'll tell you. Don't bother your husband for now," Sayuri said, helping her son with the girls.
"Fine," Akane and Satsuki said after looking at each other, a little blush creeping onto their cheeks.

A beautiful and curvy woman with long red hair appeared at the door that suddenly opened.
"Sayuri, Mikoto! Girls! Have you come to see me? Kya!" The redheaded woman called out cheerfully. "You brought Akira, Satsuki, and Akane-chan too. I'm sure Naruko and Naruto will be happy about it."
Mikoto had already woken up on their way to Kushina's house but had been silent, as if she had lost her soul. Seeing Satsuki worried about her all the time, she somehow tried to straighten up her decadent mood.
"Hi, Kushina. We..." Sayuri greeted her old friend, feeling a little awkward about asking for help.
"Hi, Kushina..." Mikoto echoed her sister, her face still decadent.
"Hi, Auntie," Satsuki and Akane cheerfully greeted Kushina, as they often played with Naruko and visited her house.
Akira, seeing his mother's and aunt's embarrassed looks, took control of the situation. "Hello, Kushina-san. Sorry for the intrusion at this hour, but we need a place to stay for the night. Would you allow us to be in your care tonight?"
Kushina paused for a second, hearing what Akira said. She wasn't aware of the situation in the village but seeing her friends Sayuri and Mikoto's current state, she knew something was wrong. "Of course you can. Come inside everyone. Don't be strangers standing outside the door."
"Thank you, Kushina-san," Akira said with a smile, relieved.
"Thanks, Auntie," Satsuki and Akane said cheerfully. "Where is Naruko?"
"Thank you, my friend," Sayuri and Mikoto both said with relief in their voices.
....
After a while, once they had entered the house and gotten comfortable, and Naruto and Naruko had appeared to welcome them, Mikoto pulled Akira aside for a moment into another room.
"Akira... Sasuke wasn't with the girls. I... I fear for him. I need to go and search for him," Mikoto said worriedly.
Mikoto unconsciously moved closer to her nephew, seeking his safety, and grabbed the hem of his clothes. She had undergone a transformation in the last few hours that she didn't even understand. She had previously loved her nephew dearly as he was her sister's son, but now there was something more.
"Don't even think about it. Uncle Fugaku left you to me, Aunt. He entrusted your life to me to make sure you are safe and protected for the rest of your life. I can't disappoint my uncle..." Akira embraced Mikoto's soft and petite body and quickly said, his face changing as he heard her.
"Akira..." Mikoto whispered softly and tenderly as she felt her nephew's warm embrace and his commitment to her. She relaxed her nerves and softened as she rested against his body, feeling secure. "But Sasuke..."
Akira sighed internally.
For a second, Akira enjoyed his aunt's petite body before moving his hand upward to caress her cheeks, which were streaked with a few tears.
"I'll go and look for him, Mikoto," Akira spoke softly as he looked into her eyes.
"But... it's dangerous," Mikoto's voice broke.
"There won't be a problem. I can run away. But if you were to go... you would die. That's why you can't go there," Akira said softly. "I'll go for you, because you are my dear aunt, Mikoto."
Akira said that, but even if he didn't go, Sasuke wouldn't have a problem with his life.
"Akira..." Mikoto was so touched by her nephew's words. He was so romantic compared to her husband and so decisive. She... She couldn't control her current emotions as her face moved closer to her nephew's, and she kissed his lips.
Akira was surprised, his eyes widening as he never expected this. Nevertheless, he took advantage of it and kissed Mikoto back with fervor, pushing his tongue into her mouth to play with hers.
"Mhmm-mmm~~," Mikoto moaned softly as she enjoyed their kiss, releasing her frustrations and everything else as she got lost in it.
After a while, they separated.
"I'm sorry, Akira. Maybe I shouldn't have done that..." Mikoto panted, whispering softly as her face flushed red, her eyes lost.
"Don't say that, Mikoto. I loved it," Akira said as he smiled and caressed Mikoto's face. Then, he took her lips again.
"Ah~~," Mikoto enjoyed the kiss as she got lost in it once more.
"I'll go and look for Sasuke. Don't go anywhere, stay here with my mother and the girls. Okay?" Akira ordered his aunt firmly, asserting himself as her man. He had already marked her as his woman in his mind.
Mikoto could feel the change in Akira toward her and didn't say anything against it. "Yes. I'll stay here."
"Good, Aunt," Akira smiled as he caressed her face for a last moment.
"Before you leave, you need to kiss me too, son," Sayuri suddenly appeared from behind them as the sliding door opened, and she entered the room.
"Mom!" Akira chuckled.
"Sister..." Mikoto's blushing face grew even redder as she saw her sister, already knowing that she knew what had happened inside the room.
"Come here, Mom," Akira chuckled and ordered her.
"My beautiful and strong boy," Sayuri smiled as she entered her son's embrace beside her sister.
"That's right," Akira grinned and kissed his mother.
"Mhmm~~," Sayuri got lost in the kiss as she squirmed against his body, desiring his touch and warmth for so many hours already.
Mikoto looked at the familiarity between her nephew and her sister and now understood that the relationship between them was long-standing and not something recent.
"Mom, get ready for later. I will take what is mine," Akira growled softly to her as he caressed her big ass with the hand that embraced her.
"Ah~" Sayuri made a cute sound as she enjoyed his touch, pressing her ass even more into his greedy hand.
"I will, husband." Sayuri softly said as she kissed Akira's neck, her body soft and yielding against his.
Mikoto was blushing like a tomato at the interaction, but her pussy was already wet at the thought of what they would do, secretly desiring the same deep in her heart.
"That's my woman," Akira said before kissing her one last time before departing.
