Damn Gaara he knows I hate going to Konoha and damn Temari for being sick. Don't they know I have other things to do. Kankurou thought as he leapt through the trees on the way to Konoha. Soon he was at the front gates which were open as he walked through he was stopped by a guard who came out from behind the station.

"Oi, what is your purpose here?" he questioned standing in front of Kankurou.

"I am from Suna the Kazekage sent me on his behalf. I would like to see the Hokage." He replied in a bored tone. He hated all these trees and greenery he much preferred the vast desert surrounding Suna. He also hated how laid back every one was here.

"Oi, Kiba, Akamaru welcome back how was your mission?" the other guard who was still behind the station asked as Kiba came strolling into the village.

"Hey your on your way to see the Hokage right?" the first guard who was in front of Kankurou asked drawing Kibas attention to the two of them.

"Yeah have to give my report. Do you think she is still pissed about the incident?"

"You know she is, she didn't get a chance to tell you off before you left a week ago." The guard replied with a laugh. "But anyways do you think you can take…" he looked at Kankurou, probably expecting him to tell him his name which he didn't offer, then back to Kiba. "this Suna shinobi to the Hokage?"

"Sure maybe it will distract her from me. Come on Kankurou." Kiba said then began walking followed by Kankurou who was surprised that he remembered his name he figured everyone just thought of him as one of the Sand Siblings.

"Oh and Kiba, Sakura was looking for you shortly after you left. She seemed upset when I told her you went on a mission."

"Right thanks!" he called back then lowered his voice. "So what are you here for? Where's Temari?"

"Sick." Kankurou replied looking straight ahead but noticed out of the corner of his eye Kiba's smile.

"Well Shikamaru will be disappointed but he'll get over it." Kankurou didn't reply. "So are you here for help or to help?" Kiba continued.

"You ask a lot of questions." Before Kiba could reply someone grabbed his arm stopping him.

"How was your mission Kiba?!" Sakura questioned with a tone Kankurou couldn't really place.

"Fine Sakura I wasn't injured or anything."

"Did you reopen your wound let me see." She ordered. That Kankurou was familiar with, Temari did that all the time with him.

"No, I was careful it was an easy mission. But as you can see I need to take Kankurou to the Hokage." She looked over and as if finally seeing him she smiled.

"Hello Kankurou, how are things in Suna? Good I hope."

"Yeah."

"And how is Temari? Is she here with you?"

"He say's she is sick, but we should get going."

"Don't think I am letting you off the hook Kiba, come by the hospital when you are through with giving your report so I can check your wound."

"Alright." Kiba said with a smile exposing his fangs. She then left going back to the hospital. Kiba shook his head and started to walk again. "She worries to much, I wonder if all med nins are like that." Shortly after they were at the bottom of stairs leading to a building. "Well Akamaru you coming up or…" before Kiba could finish Akamaru shook his head walked in a circle and laid down. "Yeah that is probably for the best. I should be back soon. Well come on Kankurou you can see her first wouldn't want her to be mad when you talk with her."

"Yeah." Kankurou still didn't know what Kiba did but it seemed as if he upset two women in the village. They walked up the stairs and Kiba knocked on the door to the Hokages office.

"Come in." they heard her say from the other side.

"Afternoon Lady Hokage I'm back from my mission but Kankurou from Suna is here to see you so my report can wait. I…"

"Kiba you will wait right there! Don't even begin to think I am letting you out of my sight until I am done with you!" she cut him off, then turned to Kankurou. "What can Konoha do for Suna?" she asked in a completely different tone then the one used on Kiba.

"Ga..The Kazekage would like to request the assistance of Konoha for our ninja academy. It seems that we are short handed and with Temari becoming unexpectedly ill…."

"I understand how many will you need?" she asked shuffling through papers on her desk.

"One person would be sufficient I am also taking time off from missions to train."

"I will see who we have available" She replied then turned her attention to Kiba who was inching towards

the door. "Kiba!"

"I.. was opening the door for him." Kiba lied.

"Kankurou I will send someone for you when I have found someone please don't go far it shouldn't take long."

"Thank you." He replied walking out the door. It had barely shut when he heard Tsunade yelling at Kiba for his behavior and lack of responsibility. Kankurou made his way to the stairs and down them watching the people walk around the village. This place was nothing like Suna, it was to peaceful. How could a ninja village be so damn peaceful? He thought to himself. Out of the corner of his eye he saw the large dog stretch and stand looking up to the top of the stairs. Kankurou looked up just in time to see Kiba leap over the edge and land gracefully on the ground. Which reminded Kankurou of a cat more than any dog he had ever seen.

"So when do we leave? Now or in the morning?" Kiba asked out of no where. Kankurou didn't answer thinking that he was talking with his dog. "I don't mind either way but I would like to stop by my apartment first and I promised Akamaru a burger when we got back." Kiba was now looking at Kankurou.

"You're going?" Kankurou asked it was a bit meaner than he had intended.

"Yeah the 'Hokage' thinks that it would be good for me to have some responsibility and to see what it is like to be in charge of others. The proverbial killing two birds with one stone thing." Kiba flashed a fang revealing smile. "So when did you want to leave?"

"The sooner the better." Kankurou replied looking away, towards the street. He felt something when Kiba smiled at him like that, he just couldn't place the feeling.

"Well at least let me go back to my place and change. Then get something quick to eat if that's okay?"

"Show the way." Kankurou replied stepping aside a bit, this however didn't stop Kiba from brushing against his side slightly.

"Alright come on Akamaru." They walked to the outskirts of town where it was less crowded to a small apartment complex. Kiba walked to a door on the ground floor and put his key's in and turned the knob then pushed against it with his weight. Kankurou heard something move inside then the door opened. Kiba let Akamaru go in first then walked in, Kankurou noticed that Akamaru had jumped once he entered the doorway. Kiba flicked on the light and then he realized why. The small apartment was packed full of boxes with the words 'KIBAS STUFF' written on them.

"Don't mind the mess we just moved in before our last mission and didn't have a chance to unpack." Kiba explained moving around boxes glancing in them quickly. Kankurou stepped in closing the door behind him. When he turned back Kiba already had his jacket off and was removing his mesh shirt. Kankurou was intoxicated by the younger mans body, it was tanned and had muscles in all the right places he also noticed a wound that didn't look very old and looked as if it were healing alright. He watched as Kiba bent over a box to look inside. His ass was tight and … wait I don't like guys like that! Especially not some weak Konoha man. Kankurou thought as he mentally slapped himself for thinking that way. He then realized that Kiba was throwing things out of the box that should never be packed together. First came a shuriken then a shirt then what looked like a dog toy then a kunai then some bandages.

"Found it!" Kiba exclaimed pulling a coat from the box.

"You do realize you're going to Suna right?" Kankurou asked sarcastically looking at the jacket Kiba had just pulled out.

"Yeah and your point?" Kiba asked tilting his head to the side like a puppy considering weather or not he should pounce on the hopping bug again.

"It's the desert, you probably won't need a coat." Kankurou explained.

"It's my summer coat." he stated as if that were explanation enough. "Well time for food, come on Akamaru your burger awaits."

Kankurou soon found himself sitting opposite Kiba at an outside table watching him eat his burger. He had no idea that eating could be so .. so sensual. He watched as the younger man licked the ketchup off his hand as it dripped from the burger moving his tongue up to his fingers moving them inside his mouth one at a time to get all the juices off. Kankurou began to wonder what other things the younger man could do with his mouth , and again gave himself a mental slap to the head. He didn't like men, he liked women he has had numerous women. They practically threw themselves at him when he went into the bars back home. He was just in need of a good lay that was all. This weather was getting to him that must be it.

"We don't have time to waist here, let's get going." He said standing up then watched as Kiba shoved the

rest of the burger into his mouth and stand as well. Walking past Kankurou, slightly brushing against his side and continued on his way.

"How long will it take to get to Suna?" Kiba asked as he continued to walk. Kankurou turned and walked behind him slightly.

"About three day's if we don't rest to long."

"Sounds good…." Kiba stopped. "Damn you go ahead I will catch up. If I don't go see Sakura she will kill me when I get back. I told her I would let her check on my wound."

"You don't know your way to Suna." Kankurou pointed out.

"Oh right well if you want you can wait at y place until I am done or you can go with me."

"Which will make you go faster?"

"Well if you come along then Sakura won't think I am lying to her. So I guess you're coming then?" Kiba then began walking again with Kankurou keeping good pace with him. They shortly made it to the hospital and spotted Sakura.

"Oi Sakura!" Kiba called as he began taking off his jacket and shirt.

"Kiba you can wait until we are inside." She said as she walked towards the two of them slightly eyeing Kankurou as she neared.

"Yeah but you see we are in a bit of a hurry, I am going to Suna with Kankurou to help with training of the academy brats." Kiba explained as he tossed his clothes on Akamaru's back, when he did this Akamaru huffed at him but didn't remove the clothes.

"Are you planning on stripping completely out here?" she asked crossing her arms.

"I wouldn't mind doing that if it would hurry the process along, besides you know I don't like the hospital." He said reaching down to his pants.

"Oh by the way Lady Tsunade wanted me to inform you that if you cause another incident like the one you caused previously she would make sure you only do D ranked missions for a year." This stopped Kiba's movements.

"Fine I guess we go inside then?" he said taking his jacket and shirt from Akamaru.

"Sorry about this Kankurou but it won't take long I just have to make sure he hasn't reopened any wounds. It won't be long, but your welcome to wait inside."

"No I'm fine here."

"Alright it won't be long." She took off inside the hospital after Kiba. Kankurou waited about ten minutes before a half dressed Kiba came running out followed by Akamaru.

"Sorry we can get going now." Kiba said pulling his shirt over him and taking his jacket from Akamaru's mouth. Kankurou didn't respond he just turned and started walking towards the gates. He was glad to be getting out of this damn happy village seeing so many happy people was really starting to get to him. By the time night fell they had made good time and Kankurou decided it would be best if they stopped and rested for a bit, even though it didn't look like Kiba was tiring as quickly as he was.

"We'll rest here for a bit then get going with the sun." Kankurou said dropping from the tree he was in.

"Sounds good. Oi Akamaru were stopping!" Kiba called to the dog who was a bit ahead of them then dropped to the ground himself. Within seconds Akamaru was back at his side nuzzling his arm. "Yeah I think I have some." Kiba searched through one of his many coat pockets and pulled out a strip of jerky and gave it to Akamaru, then looked over to Kankurou who was starting a fire. "Want some?" he asked pulling out another piece.

"No."

"So where are your puppets?" Kiba asked eyeing him.

"They are here." Kankurou replied offering no explanation.

"Where?" Kiba asked looking around. "I haven't seen any sign of them. Not even in town."

Kankurou let out a long breath and stood up looking Kiba in the eye. "Must you ask so many questions?"

"It is called conversation, and I figured since you aren't talking I would try to find something you would like to talk about and well, I know I like talking about myself so I figured.."

"Well you figured wrong. Now lets just get some sleep so we can get back to Suna." Kankurou leaned up against one of the trees near the fire pulled his hat over his eye's and promptly fell to sleep. Kiba on the other hand jumped back into the tree and fell asleep on one of the larger branches with his head on Akamaru. This is after all how they sleep when it is the two of them on a mission.

By the time they had made it to Suna two days later Kankurou was in desperate need to get Kiba's body out of his mind so as soon as he reported to Gaara about the person chosen to help them and showed Kiba his room within the Kazekage's home, which happened to be the room across from Kankurou's, he made his way down to the local bar to pick up a woman to have a one night stand with. After a few shots and a good survey of the possible partners he decided on a brunette with dark eyes and a small frame. He talked to her for a bit bought her a few drinks and she was soon inviting him back to her place. Once they got there it wasn't long until they were stripped of their clothes and he was on top of her. He didn't know her name he didn't care to, he just needed to get that damn mutt out of his mind. He thrust himself into her hard and fast, he was being a bit rougher than he usually would have been but he didn't care and she didn't seem to mind either. She was soon moaning for him and scratching at his back. He then began to picture that tan body with the smooth stomach and those muscles in just the right places, what it would be like to have that wild body under him calling his name. With these thoughts it wasn't long until he reached is climax. The woman under him was done as well he moved himself off of her put on his pants, pulled away as she reached for his arm grabbed his shirt and walked out. He needed a few more drinks, he decided it wasn't that late and he could get some sake and then he would go and beat the crap out of that damn mutt for making him think of things like that. He had half of the sake gone by the time he got home he didn't even think about what he was doing when he knocked on Kiba's door. Kiba opened wearing boxers and nothing else rubbing his eye's sleepily.

"Kankurou is it morning already?" he asked with a yawn. Kankurou pushed the bottle of sake at Kiba and walked in. Akamaru stood from where he had been sleeping and growled softly. "It's alright, it's just Kankurou." Kiba said hushing Akamaru. "Kankurou what are you doing? You're wasted."

"It's your fault." Kankurou shot back then realized he shouldn't make such quick movements as he lost his balance and fell, he was expecting to hit the floor but instead was caught by Kiba.

"How is it my fault?" Kiba asked helping him to stand up right. Kankurou pushed away and in the process fell to the bed which was slightly behind him.

"You have been walking around all wild, and making me think things men shouldn't think about other men. Damn you I like women not men who the hell do you think you are! Don't you realize that you radiate sex!" Kankurou was getting louder.

"Keep your voice down. How much have you had to drink?" Kiba asked looking at the bottle.

"Don't tell me what to do! And….and put some damn clothes on before I take you!"

"Listen Kankurou can't we talk about this in the morning? I mean you are obviously drunk and you don't know what you are saying."

"I am not drunk enough to get you out of my mind so give me back my sake!"

"I didn't take it from you but you don't need any more either." With that Kiba downed the rest of the sake and sent Akamaru to the hall in case a fight broke out he didn't want Kankurou getting hurt by. Once he shut the door behind Akamaru Kankurou was standing in the middle of the room making his way to Kiba. He had a lustful look in his eyes and wanted Kiba. Which he was sure was Kiba's fault for looking so damn hot. Looking like he could take whatever Kankurou could throw at him. He pushed Kiba against the door and kissed him. This was something that Kiba hadn't expected he actually expected for Kankurou to throw a punch. Kiba didn't mind however he was always willing to try something different and had always wondered what Kankurou would be like. To his surprise however he was getting really into this and they both made their way to the bed, removing Kankurou's clothes as they went. They broke apart briefly to remove his shirt then began kissing again. They were being fairly rough with each other and this was something that Kiba enjoyed. He was a bit of a masochist, but he would never admit that. Kankurou pushed him down on the bed and removed Kiba's boxers and his own. He then placed his hand around Kiba's erection and began to move up and down in fast movements making Kiba moan. Which turned Kankurou on even more and without thinking he placed his mouth over the tip of Kiba's hard cock and moved his tongue around it causing another moan to escape Kiba's mouth. To Kankurou's delight it sounded just as he had pictured and soon put two fingers in his mouth to use his saliva along with Kiba's pre-cum to lubricate Kiba's entrance. He first put one finger in waiting for some sign from Kiba to stop but didn't receive one so he moved his finger in and out I the same rhythm as his head on Kiba's dick. He soon placed another finger in again waiting for some sign to stop which again he didn't receive he opening did get a bit tighter but then relaxed again after a few movements. By the time he moved in his third finger Kiba was on the verger of climaxing so he stopped what he was doing and moved over him. He looked in Kiba's eyes and all he saw was a needing look, a need for release. Kankurou placed the tip of his member at Kiba's entrance after her removed his fingers and felt Kiba tighten.

"Relax I will try to be careful." Kankurou ordered in a husky voice. Kiba shook his head showing he understood with that Kankurou pushed his head in the tight entrance. Kibas hands gripped Kankurou's arms tightly, and Kankurou could see tears welling up in the other's eyes. "Relax, it'll be over soon." Kankurou told him. Where in fact he didn't really know this was his first time and he had never really been this gentle with anyone before. He felt Kiba relax a bit and moved the rest of the way inside and stopped and waited for Kiba to get used to it.

"Okay you can move." Kiba finally said, and Kankurou did just that he began moving slowly but when Kiba started to moan when he would hit a certain spot Kankurou couldn't help but speed up his pace. Hearing Kiba moan under him was almost enough to push him over the edge he moved one of his hands down to Kiba's neglected member and began rubbing it in rhythm with his thrusts. Then Kiba did something that truly pushed him over the edge.

"Ahh, Kank-ur-oooooo" with that both men climaxed. Kankurou was so worn out from the rush to get back to Suna the woman before and now this he could barely move. He did however bring himself to pull out of Kiba and roll over to lay beside him. They didn't say anything to one another they just laid there soon Kiba's breathing became steady and Kankurou realized that he had fallen asleep and to his great astonishment he wasn't nearly as drunk as he had been when he walked in this room but Kiba must have been exhausted. Kankurou got out of the bed careful not to disturb the man sleeping in the bed and walked over to the bathroom that was connected to the room and washed himself off the wet a separate wash cloth and walked back to the bed. He did his best to clean Kiba off got dressed and opened the door where he saw Akamaru sitting. He looked up to Kankurou then into the room huffed and walked inside. Kankurou then made his way across the hall into his own room and fell asleep still a bit numb to what had just happened and hoping with all hope that Kiba wouldn't remember in the morning.
