Well, because my wonderful reviewers were so sad I discontinued Make me Whole, I decided to write a new KakaIru fanfic. So, enjoy!

Disclaimer: However much I would like to, I unfortunately don't own Naruto, or Kakashi, or Iruka. Dammit.

Warnings: Smexeh goodness in later chapters, adult themes, male/male pairing, yaoi, etcetera. Torture, violence, blood, sadism. You have been warned.

Special warnings for this chapter: N/A

So cold...

It was so cold. Why was it so cold? And it hurt. I felt the pain distantly, as though it was from some other time, and I was just remembering it.
I tried to move, to open my eyes, but no luck. The pain slowly grew, until I was aware that is was my own, I was in so much pain... Why was I in so much pain? I slowly struggled, and managed to crack open my eyes.

Kakashi POV

Kakashi jumped through the open window of the Hokage's office, smirking underneath his mask. Tsunade had apparently finally accepted that Kakashi would have simply waited out there until the window was open once more. He stepped in front of Tsunade's desk, waiting for her to say whatever she had to say so he could leave, possibly on a mission.
"Kakashi. I need you to find Iruka," Tsunade got straight to the point. Kakashi's one visible eyebrow disappeared underneath his hitai-ate.
"He's gone missing. The last person to see him was Genma, at about eleven a.m. three days ago. Since then, he's been missing, and we have no idea where he might possibly be, although we have searched the village," Tsunade explained. "Genma told me that Iruka said nothing about where he might be going," she added. Kakashi frowned underneath his mask.

"Wouldn't it make more sense to get an Inuzuka, or perhaps an Aburame to find him?" he questioned. Tsunade nodded.
"I'm going to assign Inuzuka Kiba and Aburame Shino to you, as a temporary team that you will lead," she said, "Your mission is to find Iruka, and if he is in some kind of danger, rescue him. If he was captured then you will need to capture whoever captured him, for interrogation. Understood?" Tsunade asked.
"Hai," Kakashi nodded. "Do Kiba and Shino know of this yet?" he queried. Tsunade nodded.
"They're waiting by the entrance for you, so go meet them," she ordered. Kakashi nodded.

Where was I? It was dark, very dark, so much pain and darkness... I shook my head slowly. I was a Shinobi of the Hidden Leaf, I could survive it. I tried to move myself to sit up, only to discover that some heavy chains were restraining me. I was too weak, I couldn't even summon up Chakra... I was captured, alone, and as far as I knew, no-one would come and rescue me. I couldn't even remember how I had gotten here... I heard something, faintly, next to me. I could only just move my head, there was a figure standing there... They were saying something. If I could just strain my ears...
"Are you having fun so far...?" whoever it was had a deep, dangerous voice, with a hint of sadistic amusement in it. I could barely move, I couldn't speak, I could only watch as he turned, reached out into the darkness, and turned back with something gleaming in his hand, glinting like a kunai.

Kakashi POV

Kakashi landed silently behind the two chunin, a few steps away. He had disguised his Chakra, to see if they were able to notice him. Kiba sniffed the air and wheeled around, at the same time as Shino turned silently after a quiet buzzing from one of his insects. Kiba frowned, but Shino appeared to understand, and nodded.
"Good. When we get out of Konoha, Shino, send out your bugs to find anything which might point to Iruka, and Kiba, see if you or Akamaru can smell him, or anything that may lead to him. Got it?" Kakashi ordered. The two Chunin nodded shortly.
"Alright. Let's move out!"

Alright, there we go, new story, enjoy. I'm sorry that this first chapter is so short, but anyway...

Who's the mysterious figure with the kunai? What did he do to Iruka? Where are they?

If you guys want to suggest/guess the mysterious figure, that's fantastic. I'm planning on using an OC but if someone gives me a good idea on who it is, I'll use that person, and I'll specially mention whoever gave me the idea. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed, Please review.

Thank you for reading!
