A few months had passed since Haruto and Wendy officially joined Fairy Tail. During that time, Haruto spent a majority of his time out on missions while Wendy only did some requests that did not require her to fight. Haruto had told her that he wanted her to spend some time getting used to the Guild and settle down a bit. The redhead Uchiha on the other hand put an effort into working more requests for more money. The two had rented out a large apartment in the middle of town, the rent was about 90,000 Jewels per month. The apartment had pure white walls and wooden floors, it was not furnished so Haruto and Wendy had to buy some from town, the apartment had two rooms, one bathroom, a living room, and a kitchen. Though they did have a ton of money remaining, Haruto did not want to take chances as he wished for more than enough so any issues they came to face in the future they would always have money to spare.
In the months he spent in Fairy Tail, he had come to meet some other members of the Guild. One of them was Mirajane Strauss, one of the three Strauss siblings. Wearing a gothic-looking, overly revealing outfit matching her tomboyish personality. The outfit consisted of a dark, skimpy sleeveless shirt adorned with some light curved motifs on the chest, a pair of leather shorts held up by a studded belt with a demonic looking buckle and thigh-high boots with stiletto heels, each bearing a skull adorned by a flower on their upper front parts. On her wrist she wore a bracelet shaped like a demonic arm around her right wrist, a ring on the same hand's middle finger, and dark nail polish. Wearing her ivory hair in a pony tail held up by a massive dark ribbon. She was an interesting person to say the least, Mirajane had a tendency to badmouth people, and not only that she was a very feared person among mages and criminals alike. Holding the title as "The Demon," Haruto could understand the title, partly because of her magic, the other he assumed was because of her attitude and behavior towards anyone that was not a family member. Then there was Erza Scarlet. With beautiful long crimson hair, and brown eyes, she also wore a sword on her hips and a short skirt and her outfit was complete with a simple blouse and over the blouse was an iron chest piece. Erza was different, she had a strict personality and tended to criticize the bad behavior of her fellow Guild members, and she had a short temper when her questions were not answered fast enough to her liking. Added to that, she also had a bad childhood from what Haruto had assumed and combined with those factors, the other members tended to avoid her as it was too awkward.
Haruto had met them in a situation that he was not happy about. The two girls known and feared for their fierce personalities and powers in battle had a rivalry for the strongest female in Fairy Tail. The two were fighting and arguing like usual as the other Guild member acted as it was a common occurrence so Haruto treated it as the same as Natsu and Gray's brawls and simply ignored them and allowed them to do what they desired. He simply minded his own business until they had brought Wendy into their petty arguments. The two were having a competition with Wendy involved, Haruto observed from a corner of the room ready to jump in when he deemed necessary. The argument this time was on their combat powers and they were asking Wendy who she thought was stronger. Wendy was having a hard time in this situation, but he did not wish to intervene yet. Being kindhearted, Wendy couldn't bring herself to answer the question. Seeing that Wendy was not going to answer anytime soon and from what he gathered from their display, they were not the patient types when it came to their rivalry. Walking towards them, two of the elder members Macao and Wakaba gave the teen a surprised look as they now turned their attention to the redhead who approached Wendy and guided her out of the Guild.
Leaving behind the bickering girls as Haruto began guiding her away from all of the commotion.

Uchiha. The name of one of the most feared clans in the entire Elemental Nations, before his time, his grandfather was dubbed the strongest shinobi to be ever produced from the Uchiha clan. That was very accurate. Madara Uchiha was considered one of the greatest shinobi to ever walk the lands of the Elemental Nations, having been able to stand on even grounds against Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi. Though Hashriama was able to win the final fight against his rival and long time friend Madara, he was not able to do what the legendary Uchiha had done. Madara survived during the fight at the valley that would be soon dubbed as "The Valley of The End," Hashirama failed to produce a powerful heir unlike Madara who sired only one child. His child Minato Namikaze had his bloodline sealed off as Madara sent his child away. Raised as an orphan, his child was able to rise above the ranks and become the Yondaime Hokage. Minato was considered a prodigy, Madara was not surprised by the assumptions the people of Konoha made about his son. After all he did have his blood running through his veins. That was the least Madara expected from his son. Minato soon had sons of his own with Kushina Uzumaki. Madara found out about this and was very pleased. Having two grandchildren, from a relative of a Senju no less, could produce the next Sage of Six Paths.
The younger twin Naruto was sorely disappointing in the eyes of Madara. The boy was too much like Hashirama and Minato for him to see the bigger picture. The boy showed no talents in any Shinobi arts from what Zetsu gathered, and his control of chakra was appalling. And Naruto did not seem to have inherited his blessed eyes. Though he knew Naruto held the potential to become one of the greatest shinobi ever, the young boy did not have the heart to do what was necessary for the betterment of the world. The eldest pleased the legendary Uchiha. Haruto was what Madara considered the "perfect shinobi," cold and calculative, Haruto was very much like him in his younger days when he first began his shinobi career. Utilizing every mistake the enemy made and using everything in his possession to gain the upper hand, Madara decided Haruto would be the one to help him bring forth the change that the world dearly needed. Unlocking his blessed eyes, Haruto had shown to be a prodigy like himself and Minato in just about every shinobi field of expertise. Haruto had favored the use of Genjutsu and Ninjutsu more than anything else, Madara was pleased with his grandson's choice of expertise as those were two of the greatest weapons a shinobi could use in combat.
Haruto had inherited many things from his fallen grandfather. One of them was his thirst for a good fight. In the Elemental Nations, it was hard to find a good opponent to fight without having them alert an entire village of pests. Haruto only knew a few that he could fight on even grounds. They were the only ones that he would enjoy fighting. Madara had only one person who would be able to keep up with him, that was until his grandson came along. Hashirama was the only one before Haruto that could give Madara a run for his money. Haruto only had a few people that he had fought and they had been able to hold him off. They were his brother Naruto Uzumaki and his grandfather Madara. The Five Kages were strong, oh yes. No doubt in his mind they were strong. But the Kages could not stand up to the power of his blessed eyes when used to their fullest potential. His brother had managed to when he was in Sage Mode, but that was it.
Now in a new world, Haruto was determined to find some stronger opponents that would be able to push him like his grandfather and Naruto had been able to. And from what he gathered, the ones that were considered the strongest or were recognized as the strongest were the Wizard Saints. His Master held the fifth seat if his information was correct and power of the entire Wizard Saint system depended on their seat number. So he could assume the first four were the strongest of the entire group. Though considering that the rumors surrounding the first four said they were not even human intrigued the young Uchiha. And since he had met Makarov, he knew the man was powerful, not as strong as his grandfather, he was still able to fight him on even grounds. Shaking away his thoughts, the young Uchiha continued down the road as he headed towards his destination. That was when a group of armed bandits surrounded him. They were dressed in odd clothing and were carrying weapons such as swords, axes, and other weapons. Haruto's face remained emotionless as they readied their weapons, the one dressed the best and wearing a bit of leather armor the one he assumed was the leader spoke.
"You, give up all your items and we will let you live," the man said as he showed off the blade he was holding.
"Hn. Mere fools," Haruto said in a cold tone, "You fools have now made your greatest mistake."
"You looking down on us kid?" the man asked, his voice filled with anger, "We were going to let you off the hook without getting hurt, but since you opened your mouth, we will teach you some manners."
The men all charged, Haruto ducked under a swing and deflected a blade with his kama. Kicking a man away, Haruto grabbed onto the outstretched hand of one of his attackers and pulled him forward. Kicking the man on the chest, Haruto released his grip on the man and kicked him towards two of the charging bandits. Their bodies collided as Haruto then slammed the flat of his kama against one of the bandits' head knocking him out. Not even letting them recover, Haruto activated his eyes and their movements were clear to him. Dodging some sword slashes, Haruto leaned to the right and slammed his shoulder against a man's stomach knocking the air right out of his lungs before putting away his kama and delivering a punch to the man's face. Only two of the bandits remained as they charged from behind and brought their blades up and ready to slice him into pieces. Haruto merely turned to stare at them and they froze as their eyes made contact with his, right after their eyes met, the two bandits were thrown into an illusion. Haruto pushed both of them down onto the ground and walked past them and headed towards his destination once more. These annoyances took up his time.
