Tobirama was going to die.
That much he knows.
He was surrounded, there was just too many of them.
Five?
Easy fight.
Ten?
Bit of a work-out.
Entire Kinkaku force?
Not good.
Idividially he could defeat everyone of them with ease.
But all at once?
He was going to die.
He accepted it.
He sacrificed himself for his students, his family and his village.
One day he may be forgotten but he won't die in vain.
He will die like a true shinobi.
"We got him now boys!"
One of the enemy nin called out.
He wasn't that done yet however.
His latest experimental jutsu was still just a theory.
But it might work.
He did the hand signs and then felt a sword pierce his skin.
Right in the heart.
He managed to call out the name of the jutsu in his last moment.
Then he blacked out.

Something wasn't just right.
He should be dead.
He felt the sword stab into his heart.
Felt the beating organ stop.
Amd yet here he was.
Alive.
But something else was wrong.
The ground seemed much closer to him now.
His legs and muscles feel
wierd.
He tried to stand up, finding himself on four and on white paws.
He was confused.
He doesn't like when he is confused.
He is a man of logic.
He doesn't like what he doesn't understand.
"Huh? Where did that silver-headed asshole go?"
He felt spike of irritation at the nickname.
It wasn't the 'asshole' but rather the 'silver-headed'.
His hair was white.
Well yes they were fighting in a forest so it makes his silver-tinted white hair look kind of more silver.
But still!
"Let's find him...and kill that damn cat of his!"
His confusion grew.
Cat?
Oh.
Oh!
They were talking about him.
He felt his tail twitch.
One of the shinobi went up to him sword raised. He tried and failed to leap away feeling the sword pierce his heart once again.

Black.

Okay, this is not amusing at all.
He woke up, again.
Is the thing with cats having nine lives actually true or something?
He didn't wait for them to notice tho.
So he ran as soon as their backs were turned to him.
They noticed anyway.
He ran and ran.
As quickly as he could.
He was fast.
However the other nin were much to his misfortune also pretty fast.
He sent a small liguid bullet at them, taking advantage of their confusion and running even faster.
He died along the way to Konoha once more by a kunai to neck.
He came back bloodied but relativly alright.
He died three times.
He doesn't know if his death as human counts and isn't keen on finding out.
He easely slipped into the village, stoping by a lake to clean up at least somewhat.
That's when he finally decided to take a look at his new form.
His red pupiless eyes widden at the sight.
White fur with large silver stripe going from the tip of his nose, extending over his whole back all the way to the slightly darker tip of his tail.
He also had spots, like a snow leopard.
Lighter in color but still.
He was about the size of a small snow leopard. Not as small as a cub but close enough.
He then shook his head and continued on his way.
The villagers looked at him strangely but they let him be.
The shinobi were giving him curious looks.
He also noticed that everyone was in black.
Pang of sadness went through him at seeing them mourn over him.
He went straight to the Senju compaund.
The seals recognizing his chakra and letting him pass.
It wasn't long before a familiar childish voice was heared.
"Kitty!"
Small chubby arms wrapped arround his neck as he surpressed a purr.
Little Tsunade had him in a hug that could have been bone crushing to any normal cat.
"Tsuna-chan"
Mito.
He looked up at his best friend.
The mourning black didn't suit her at all.
She looked at him curiously, looking him straight in the eye.
He let his eyes soften, the tiny emotion made Mito's own eyes widden.
"T-Tobi..?"
He smiled.
It was a special smile.
Small but yet reaching his eye.
His smile.
Mito had tears in her eyes as she quickly wrapped her own arms arround him crying.
He let out a soothing purr wrapping one er..arm?...paw? Whatever! Arround her.
She then got up took little Tsuna in her arms and went to her little home, with him following of course.
Maybe...maybe  this wasn't so bad.
He is still able to protect them.
And he will.

Sooo what do you guys think?
This story was inspirated by  author on Ao3. Forgot the name of the story and the author but i will make sure to find out.
The jutsu was also their idea.
I made some changes as in Tobirama's look or how the story will go.

Naruto belongs to his respective author.
Same about the oroginal story idea.
