Chapter Eight

Kaiya left her home late that morning, it had been about 2 weeks since she went into surgery, and she was going to the training grounds. Not only she'd be able to train for a while, but she would find Kakashi and his team there, and being around Kakashi was always a good motivation for Kaiya, she was a Shiranui after all.
The trip was being enjoyable until... Asuma came near.
"Hey Kaiya."
"Asuma, can I help you?"
"Actually you can, I've been under a lot of stress lately"
"Not in that way. What do you want?"
"You know what I... "
"Shut up."
"No."
"Asuma, I'm not interested."
"Well you are not with any guy, I would have known if you were... and you didn't turn lesbian, I know that too... So... why aren't you interested in this?" he even light off his cigar, smirking at her.
She just picked up her pace, ignoring him, but he grabbed her by the shoulders and slammed against a wall.
"You can't be going abstinent honey, you are Genma's sister!"
"Asuma let me go."
"Ah C'mon you know you want this... you always..."
"I don't anymore. Now let me go."
"What if I don't?" Asuma grinned, coming dangerously close to her face.
She grinned back, and took a senbon from her pocket, sticking it into one of his nerves in his leg. He cowered in pain and she walked away, ignoring his blasphemy cries.

"Kakashi-sensei, why are you looking like that?"
"Because he is waiting for his girlfriend!"
"Now, now Sakura, you know I don't have one of those." He sighed, instructing the young ninjas in how to train.
"Good-morning Kakashi." Kaiya waved, and Naruto quickly walked over to her.
"Hey, hey, miss are you Kakashi's girlfriend?"
Kaiya giggled and looked at Kakashi, who awkwardly was rubbing the back of his head.
"Kaiya meet Naruto."
"Hey Naruto!"
"Hey! Are you?"
"Kakashi's girlfriend? Why?"
"Because we are all trying to see what's behind his mask!" Naruto whispered, as if Kakashi wouldn't hear.
"Oh, okay. No, I'm not his girlfriend."
"But you two are always..." Sakura complained.
"Just because I train with one of the best ninjas in this village that doesn't mean he is my lover or something. Now, if you all excuse me, I need to train."
"Why don't you train with us Kaiya?" Kakashi offered, obviously wanting Sasuke to get a reaction. "I have a future ANBU ninja like yourself here!"
"Sounds like a challenge."
"Sasuke, meet Kaiya, one of the top ninjas of the village."
"Uchiha Sasuke?"
"Yes."
"Hey, but it was with my idea we killed Zabuza! I'm not a future ANBU?" Naruto complained, and Kaiya froze.
"Zabuza?!"
"Yes."
"Is Haku dead too?"
"How do you know them?"
"Is Haku dead too Kakashi?"
"Yes. They are both gone."
Kaiya lowered her head and walked away, not one more word about anything.

When the training was over Kakashi left, and found Kaiya alone on the top of the Hokage faces.
"What happened with Zabuza?"
"Kakashi I don't want to..."
"Talk to me please?"
"Well you know what I had to do in my mission don't you?"
"No..."
She closed her eyes, it was the worst part, to admit what she did to the guy she loved... admitting she did that...
"I had to work as a whore."
"But you were a virg..."
"Yes. I was. On the first few months they took care of that obviously. It was a nightmare. The man had the habit of marking the ones that pleased them the best, that's what scarred me. Every day it only kept going worse..."
"Man in the land of Water are as ruthless as they..."
"Yes they are. Then... Zabuza went there. He scared me but he took me to a room with Haku. He took care of my wounds, and he helped me."
"He was a killer."
"Yes, I know... but when you get help... "
"You could have been killed."
"I was going to die, he saved me. He healed me and he came over every time he could, to help me with money, food and all the injuries I've sustained."
"Oh..." that was all Kakashi could say.
"Did he die with honour?"
"They both did... " he assured before hugging her.
He knew her past now, and he knew how much that hurt for her to tell him. A piece of her mind was his, and he knew deep inside he would never let her take that much anymore...
Because he loved her.
