Uchiha Hikari

A brief retelling of the life of Kilia and Ban took 1.5 hours, during which time Hikari had many questions, she heard the answer to some as their story was told, she had already forgotten and thrown out of her head, and she would hear the answer to some later.

- Well, I guess that's all, are there any other questions?

- Yes, regarding your life and who you are, I understand, but... why do you call Hikari.

- This is the name that Mom and Dad gave you at birth. As far as I remember from the story that I saw then, they were very happy about the birth of their child, and gave the name Hikari, which means light, a girl who lights their path.- Mom, and Dad?

- Yes, your parents, from what I remember, they loved you very much.

Hearing these words... Hikari had no choice but to cry in silence, but these were probably the first tears of joy in her life. Kilia hugged the girl again, but this time, since Hikari was a little exhausted from the fight, and then after a rather long conversation, she fell asleep right in Kilia's arms. Further communication between the relatives took place in whispers.

- Ban, get the bed, you can guard us while the girl rests.

The morning turned out to be quite pleasant, Hikari woke up refreshed and full of energy, well, how else? Not only did she spend this night, unlike most of her life, not on the stone floor, but in a cozy bed, but Kilia also cast a spell of pleasant dreams on her. Before that, having looked at the approximate images of Hikari's parents that were preserved in Ban's memory, she supplemented them, and launched them into a dream, where they were next to their daughter.

- Good morning, how did you sleep?

- Aaa? Mmm, good!

Hikari was still not used to waking up in a cozy atmosphere. Having come to her senses a minute after sleeping, the girls had already started to get up, as Hikari noticed that she was no longer wearing her old clothes, she was sleeping only in underwear of a rather cute appearance, it was Kilia who changed her before going to bed. What unpleasantly surprised the girl was a bunch of fuin tattoos on Hikari's body, but she decided to ask Ban or the Uchiha herself about it later.

- Brother has probably already prepared food for us, choose clothes and let's go to him.

Hikari had 4 different types of clothes to choose from, just in case they took several different types so that Uchiha would take what she liked best, as a result she chose a black T-shirt and a red vest, a little reminiscent of Kilia's clothes in style. After that, the girls left the magic tent and went to Ban.

Going outside, they were indeed greeted by a pleasant smell, the food was already on the table and steam was coming from it. In fact, Ban had cooked it half an hour ago, but thanks to household magic, the food still looked like it had just been cooked. Ban himself was sitting and holding a book in his hands, there was nothing on the cover, and the man himself was writing something on the first page.

- Good morning, brother, what are you doing? Have you become a writer?

- Yes, when we were in Konoha, during a conversation with Hiruzen, an idea came to me and now I am making it a reality. I told you, you mentioned it to Naruto back then. I want to write a book about our travels through the cities of this world, about various establishments and memorable places.- Oh-oh-oh, I want to too! Let's write it together!

- Okay.

Hikari wasn't interested in writing, but in what Ban and Kiliya were saying, she wanted to listen, but already at Ban's words about his idea during his visit to Hiruzen, she gave in and went to the table, she was lured by a very pleasant smell. There were 2 portions on the table, they were completely identical, so deciding that it didn't matter which one she would take, she chose the one that was closer. Having started eating, she was at first speechless, and then began to eat very slowly and tasted every piece. Still, she had never gotten any elite food in her life, the maximum that she was fed in the Uchiha clan was general army rations, of course, no one took her on holidays, and there were no other reasons to cook something different for a militarized settlement. 

 But the food that she liked so much in the modern world would be the norm, and for some gourmets it would seem like something mediocre. The brother and sister, noticing this scene, only watched the girl with a knowing smile. After all, they themselves had eaten nothing but the same monster meat for centuries when they were in purgatory. They completely forgot about food when they decided to go there to become stronger and prepare for further battles.

- Bon appetit.

- Huh? Itadakimasu!

 Bon appetit was wished by Kilia, who approached her portion and began to replenish her strength, although Ban does not like to cook, but when he takes on this business, it turns out very tasty. After breakfast, the three of them sat down at one table, having previously placed it and 2 not small sofas on different sides of the rectangular table. Kilia sat next to Hikari, hugging her, and Ban lay down stretched out to his full height, his legs hanging over the edge of the sofa to his knees, and his head lay on one of the pillows on the other edge.

- So, do you feel better, Hikari?

- Yes, thank you for helping me, yesterday I fell asleep without noticing, I saw my parents in my dream, and now I feel much better, thank you.

- You saw your parents because of Kiliya's magic, my favorite dream magic, she looked at the images of your parents from what remained in my memory and showed you them in all, from what I remember they are very similar to how they were presented in history, if you want to see them again, ask your sister, she will not refuse.

 Hikari turned her head rightfully looking at Kiliya, in response she received a soft smile and a nod meaning that she definitely will not refuse such a trifle.

- Well, I think it's time to tell you what we want to do next.

 Ban was lying on the couch and gesturing with his hands, it looked pretty funny in Hikari's eyes, and although her impression of Ban as someone serious and creepy was completely destroyed yesterday, but still knowing that this person who is now smiling lazily gesticulating, the same one who was covered in the most terrible flames yesterday and did not make a sound of pain, is pretty much breaking your brain.

- First, we will go to the capital of this country where we are now, before digging you up we agreed to meet there with a monk to buy beautiful futons, after that we will go to the local ninja village, we understand that this place will be very unpleasant for you, but our friend lives there whom we must pick up from there, well, or rather she wanted to go with us when we were there earlier, but she is a very important person for the local government elite, and if we had not picked her up, then at least they would have declared a hunt for us, which is very inconvenient when we are trying to find you, so we promised to return when we find you. Well, after that, we'll head to the Hidden Rain Village, and from there to the land of the earth and the Hidden Stone Village, we're still traveling with the goal of exploring as many places as possible, and for the book that I want to do, it's necessary. Got it? Can I tell you more about something?

- No, no need, maybe tell me about your friend, who is she?

- Let's leave this topic for when we travel, or when we stop at the capital's hotel, but for now, let's just rest.

Ban just wanted to lie down and bask in the warm sun under the pleasant spring breeze, although summer is already approaching. Kilia also decided to give in to laziness, and hugging Hikari like a hugging pillow, she lay down on the sofa and began to squeeze the girl. Uchiha herself was a little confused, but then she began to enjoy this situation. That's how the last hours passed before setting off on the road to the capital.

***

This time, there were already three of our heroes at the gates of Konoha. The rather memorable Ban, of course, was not lost in the memory of the eternal guardians of the gates of the Leaf Village, but this time the attention of Izumo and Kotetsu was drawn to a girl who did not look like a brother and sister duo. Of course, all the residents of Konoha know what Uchihas look like, and Hikari looks like an Uchiha.

- I remember you two, is the purpose of your arrival the same? Is the girl with you or did you just cross paths close to Konoha?

- Everything is the same, and the girl asked to travel with us a week ago.Having quickly filled out two forms for reporting to the Hokage's office, he fixed his gaze on a person previously unknown to him.

- Name? Purpose of arrival?

- Hikari, I... I am traveling with them.

Turning her head towards Ban, she tilted it to the right and asked with a questioning intonation, "Tourism?", and received an affirmative nod in response.

- Tourism!

- Just Hikari?

The last question was often asked to people upon entering Konoha, almost always just a clarification just in case, but this time Kotetsu decided to ask again due to the obvious resemblance of the girl to the now almost destroyed clan of the village's founders. In response, he received only a nod.

Well, we finally arrived in Konoha. We were there last year at the end of April, and tomorrow will be the first day of summer. While we were traveling this week to the capital and then heading to Konoha, nothing particularly interesting happened. I think it's worth mentioning that our new member became attached to Kilia almost immediately, but she was a little wary of me for the first few days. I even noticed that she sometimes turned on Mangekyou and looked in Kilia's direction, checking if she was an illusion. In the end, I decided to talk to her, and it turned out that her wariness remained due to the very well-coincided moment of my teleportation of my sister to the rock and the activation of the Sharingan by Uchiha. In order for Hikari to calm down, I had to explain how I was able to make Kilia disappear in an instant. By the way, Uchiha really liked the teleportation, unlike Kilia who gets seasick, for Hikari the sensations were, as she says, very refreshing.

Hmmm, I'm still thinking, maybe we should take the scroll of techniques along with the scroll of seals from the era of warring states? Try to teach Hikari the Flying Thunder God technique, or the improved Hiraishin, Shisui succeeded, so why shouldn't Hikari try?Another problem we discovered is that we don't have chakra, our energy is tuned to Mana, and there is no chakra system in the body, in this world fuin techniques are dangerous for us, and my sister and I wanted to learn them in order to be able to defend ourselves, and various sealing scrolls are quite convenient, since the spatial pocket that I constantly use is tied to me personally and Kiliya, being far away, has no opportunity to take anything from there, and scrolls can be summoned using the same fuinjutsu, and you can carry them with you, or make fuin tattoos.

 Oh, and regarding the fuin tattoos, after studying Hikari's body and all the fuin that are on her, we decided not to touch them, after all, we don't understand fuin. I think it's worth turning to Orochimaru again, he understands fuin quite well, and they were applied to Hikari by members of the Uchiha clan, that is, some unique knowledge and talent of Uzumaki in this area is not needed.

 Just as it turned out in the end that Hikari still has an eternal Mangekyou, her Yachihoko was her native eye technique, she also owned Tsukuyomi, but she received Amaterasu after an eye transplant from her clansman, as far as I understood it was one of Hikari's blood relatives, perhaps the last one since her parents died a long time ago and were not particularly strong, I bet 10 ryo that it was some cousin.

 Of course, it's a little sad that she does not own Susano, but this set of techniques in itself will make absolutely anyone weaker than an elite jonin flee from the battlefield. Damn, only crumbs remain from the memories of her past life about her strength, the only thing I clearly remember is the scene where Boruto, enhanced by Yachihoko, fought with the Enormous Susano of that guy who was too imbued with Pain's ideas. Well, it seems like they were able to kick away the elite Uchiha squad in the park without any problems during the Warring States era. I don't remember anything at all except the scenes where Boruto breaks the gate while on fire, and the final with the farewell.

Ooooh, here comes Naruko.

- Naruto is already here! Hikari, Kilia, let's go.
