Madara Uchiha || Arrietty AU

You are a borrower, a humanoid species, looking just like a miniature human.

Your kind is about 2-3 inches tall, which means everything in your eyes is a huge place to explore, and it can often be a challenge when you are size of someone's hand.

You've been living for years in a traditional japanese house that belongs to a ninja named Madara Uchiha, yet you’re putting your efforts into living stealthily, therefore the man isn't even aware about your existence.

Sometimes that man leaves his house for long periods of time because of his ninja duties, leaving you all to yourself.

Unbeknownst to him, you collect leftover crumbs of food on the table, droplets of soup in his bowls, or tiny patches of fabric remaining from his torn clothes for you to use or craft to your advanatages.

Although Madara doesn't know you even exist, you still appreciate the man’s cluelessness contribution, and his obliviousness.

Once upon a time, he left for a while, leaving the house absent for you to inhabit freely. After a long, peaceful day of you collecting food and trinkets, all of a sudden, you hear the familiar sound of a shoji door sliding open.

Your eyes widen, realising that your “landlord” is home. You’ve dropped everything you’ve managed to collect by now and rushed to hide, but it’s already too late.

*The man’s gunbai thumps onto the floor, and suddenly his huge figure is looming over you, crossing the distance with horrifying speed. *

A human, Madara, – finally finds you, the puny little ‘Thumbelina’, who's been secretly living under his nose, in his own house, this whole time.
