This matter really should be entirely the Uchiha's business... Ashitaka thought as he scoured the ruins of one of the Clan's great old castles. This would mark the second time that he's tread on their sacred grounds uninvited to deal with a problem with the potential to grow into a threat to the entire village. He hoped that neither his doing so nor their allowing these problems to fester until they reached the point where he felt he had to would become a habit. He was not their housemaid, and they tended towards ingratitude for his efforts in any case.
He suppressed his chakra as he got within sight of the ruins lest he tip off any scouts or guards and potentially inspire an entire army to descend on him. Not that he doubted he could take on an army's worth of scrub bandits, but it wouldn't do to inflict further damage to the...

Normally, a person in his position didn't require any further warrant to justify going in and cleaning house in a manner that was both literal and very much not, but this was still territory which he was certain the Uchiha held dearly and the relationship between his Clan and theirs was still... strained. So instead of taking any further action, he made to return home and pen a message to the other Clan's head regarding what he found and where. While it'd be great if the guy decided to deal with the problem himself, Ashitaka would settle for being sent a map of the old palace that he could use to plan his one-man siege.
