Chapter 10

Kakashi leaves the steam filled bathroom as Karasu closes her bedroom door. He walks to the kitchen where Shinju is perched on the back of a chair.

Hello Shinju

Good Evening Sakumo's son.

How is it, that you know of my father? Kakashi asks the bird

Many years ago, before you or Karasu were born, Sakumo and Karasu's father, Uindo, went to battle the great Sanbi, I and Pakkun along with others also joined in on the fight, we were trying to keep the beast from coming to shore and damaging the nearby towns. Shinobi from near and far came to fight, the two found each other during the long battle, their skills seem to play off of one another, each move seemed thought out and practiced by the two great shinobi. While the two fought close to the creature, one of Sanbi's tentacles came down to swipe the shinobi away, Uindo pushed your father out of it's way saving his life, but he himself was hit by another limb. It crushed most of his body instantly, as he lay dieing on the ground your father ran to his side, Uindo reached up to him, Sakumo's chakra was so white, Uindo thought he was in the presence of an angel.

You posses the same chakra, plus.....well...your hair...its hard not to say that you're his son. Shinju says with a slight chuckle.

Kakashi eyes look up at his hair, he runs his fingers threw it, then looks down at the ground.

Your father was a great man, and so was Karasu's, they sacrificed a lot for the people they loved. Sakumo personally went to Karasu's mother with Uindo's belongings and broke the news to her. She wept for hours in Sakumo's arms....she had just found out she was pregnant with Karasu a few days after Uindo left.

People say my mother was never the same after my father died. Karasu said leaning against the wall, a sad look on her face.

Once I graduated from the Academy, she knew I didn't need her anymore, her love for him was stronger than her love for me, she took her life to be with him. She said looking down at the ground.

Kakashi walks up to her, placing his hand on her shoulder, Karasu I am sorry, he says.

She looks up at his face and places her hand over his. It's alright, the past is the past, we must not dwell on it. She states with a small smile. Now then, enough story time, I'm starving!

Kakashi laughs lightly, okay lets go.

Walking down the street, a light wind blows threw. The seasons are starting to change and there is a chill in the night air.

Guess I should of brought a jacket, its getting cold. Karasu says grabbing her arms

You're from snow country, shouldn't you be use to the cold? He asks

Well yeah I guess, but I've been here for a few months, so I got use to the warmth. She answers

Hey! We should stop and pick up some Sake! It's always a huge hit with everyone. Karasu says pointing to the store smiling.

Sounds like a plan. He says with a crescent eye. I'll go buy-

Kakashi! Help me with these will you!?

Kakashi turns to see a man fumbling with large boxes in his arms. He grabs the top two and reveals Iruka's face.

What are you doing with all of these? He asks

I am bringing them to Shikaku, he's putting together supplies from the deer for Lady Tsunade. Do you mind helping me to his house, I can't carry all of theses?

Kakashi looks over at Karasu, You have to help him, I'll grab the Sake and meet you at Asuma's. Karasu says with a grin.

Are you sure? Some parts of the village aren't always the safest places at night. He says concerned.

Kakashi is right Karasu, come with us.

Oh guys come on, I can defend myself.

She's right Iruka, she is a Jounin, she'll be okay, lets go.

Karasu waves goodbye and enters the store. She leaves shortly with two bottles of Sake, one in each hand. Walking threw the streets alone she notices its eerily quiet, the buildings are dark, and no one seems to be out. She continues down the dimly lit street, she begins to hear voices in the distance and soon comes to a rather loud and brightly lit bar. Passing the front door that faces the street she hears someone call out to her.

Hey thar seexy ladyyy.

Karasu turns around and watches as a drunk man stumbles out of the bar, falls to the ground and starts to snore. She laughs quietly then continues on her way

--

Iruka we need to hurry, I don't really trust a certain neighborhood that she has to walk threw. Kakashi states

Hmmm, I know which one you are referring too, if we had more patrols it that sector it wouldn't be so bad, it just has way to many bars...and "other" things.

Arriving at the Nara household, Iruka thanks Kakashi for the help as he vanishes in a puff a smoke.

Jeeze that guy can't even wait for a proper thank you and goodbye. Iruka shrugs and knocks on the door.

--

Knocking on Asuma's front door, Kakashi is greeted by none other than....Saiko. He sighs in defeat of the woman in front of him.

OH KAKASHI! You're here! Saiko yells hugging the man tightly.

Please get off of me Saiko. He says prying the woman from his clothes.

But Kaka-

Anko have you seen Karasu? Kakashi asks leaving Saiko in mid breath

No I haven't, I thought she was coming with you? She asks

She was, we were on our way together, but Iruka needed my help so we parted ways. Damn it I knew I shouldn't of let her go alone she should be here by now. He says about to puff away to look for her.

Anko puts her hands over Kakashi's. Stop, she probably got lost, or was called to the Medical Core. Calm down and just wait a few minutes.

Trying to find solace in Anko's words, he agrees and grabs a spot near the front window.

--

I thought Asuma's street was the second one after the store with the blue front. Damn, I'm lost.-sigh- oh well, I'll find it, oh look that place is open, I'll just ask where Oak street is.

Walking into the loud building, Karasu is surprised by what she encounters. There are several girls dancing half naked on table tops, numerous drunk men at the bar hooting and hallowing at the them. Standing at the bar waiting for a non drunk to talk to her, Karasu scans the room. To her surprise she sees someone she knows all too well. She walks up to the table that contains, three barely dressed women, and one pervy sage.

Well hello there Jiraiya. She states putting the Sake bottles on the table and placing her hands on her hips.

Doing more research? She asks sarcastically

Looking up at the woman who is talking to him, the smile that once dawned his face vanishes quickly.

Oh, uh Karasu, Hello there...

Who is this woman Jiraiya? Your wife? One of the girls asks

Karasu starts laughing, Oh Kami No!

Why are you here Karasu?

I was on my way to Asuma's house and got lost, do you have any idea where Oak Street is?

I do indeed, let me walk you there it's not very far.

Various groans and no's can be heard from the girls. Don't worry ladies, I will return to you.

Karasu picks up the Sake only to have Jiraiya take it from her. Let me carry that for you. He says. Karasu smiles and lets him. Leaving the "club" they walk down the street together.

--

Still nothing? Asuma asks Kakashi

No.

Alright let me tell Kurenai that we're going out to find her.

Asuma turns and walks back threw the house to the kitchen. As Kakashi stares outside the window he watches as two shadowy figures walk down the street. He perks up and opens the door walking outside.

Hi Kakashi! Karasu says with a smile

What happen? He asks

I got my streets a little mixed up, but I found Jiraiya and he got me here all safe and sound. She says with a smile.

Jiraiya hands Kakashi the Sake.

Well, I must get back to my...acquaintances. Jiraiya says with a chuckle.

Bye Jiraiya, thanks again. Karasu waves as he walks away down the street.

Turning to Kakashi, he seems to have a look of relief on his face.

Did I miss the food!? She asks

He shakes his head and chuckles, no you didn't, but I have to warn you....

About what? Asuma's cooking? She asks

Laughing again, no, Saiko is here.

Rolling her eyes and running her hand threw her hair Karasu decides what she's going to do next.

I'm sure she wont try anything, I doubt she wants to spend the night with Ibiki again. Let's just go in, I'm so hungry Kakashi, I don't care that shes here.

Okay then, we'll leave if she gets crazy.

Then we should leave now cause we know shes already crazy. Karasu says with a laugh.

Kakashi smiles and opens the door for Karasu, the smells of the different foods hit here all at once.

Mmmmmm I don't know what smells better, the food or Kakashi, oh no there I go again, no Sake Karasu! Maybe just one lil drink...

--

Smiling and laughing everyone at the table is enjoying themselves, well everyone except Saiko who is past out drunk on the couch. Karasu sits on Asuma's lap holding her cards, Kurenai on Ibiki's, Yurika on Kakashi's, and Anko on Genma.

Alright give a card to your lap partner. Anko calls out

The girls put a card in their teeth and turn to the guys, they in return take the card from the girls mouth with their own.

Now switch! Anko yells

The girls get up and move counterclockwise to the next man. The game repeats, Kakashi watches as Genma takes the card from Karasu's mouth, he grinds his teeth in annoyance.

Kakashi?

Kakashi? Anko pokes him

Huh? What?

Take the card you dork. She says annoyed

He takes the card from Anko, Switch! She calls out.

Karasu ends at Kakashi, he watches as she takes the card from her hand to her mouth, her skin looks like smooth vanilla cream, her lips glisten with her lip gloss, her eyes so beautiful he can't stop staring at them, her smell, oh her smell, it drives him wild. When he's on D ranked missions with team 7 they always pass a lavender field, he makes the team take a break and he sits and just inhales as much as possible.

I'm falling for her. I mean, ya I knew I liked her, but..this feeling.

What is he staring at? My eyes? Is he just day dreaming again?

Her face turns pink as he watches her every move.

Kakashi. She whispers

He snaps out of his trance and takes the card.

Okay everyone, look at your cards, whoever has the best hand wins.

Let's see.... Karasu takes the cards from Kakashi and places them in order on the table.

Hey we have a Royal Flush! Karasu says happily.

Groans come from the other players.

Guess that means we win? Karasu say. Happiness overcomes her and she squirms around in Kakashi lap, not realizing that shes arousing the sitting Jounin. He places his hands on her hips trying to keep her still, she turns to him in her happy moment and places a kiss on his mask, and smiles at him.

We won! She says

--

Hugging Asuma and then Kurenai, Karasu thanks them for the food and her and Kakashi start to walk down the street towards her house.

I had so much fun. She says with a smile

It was nice, specially when we won. He says smiling

Burrrr it got colder out. Karasu says rubbing her arms franticly to keep warm. Kakashi unzips his flak jacket and helps her into it, she zips and it and thanks him.

Um Kakashi...

Hmmm..

Are you going to-

Ooooh Kakashiiii *hiccup* there yooooou are.

Kakashi and Karasu turn to see a wobbling Saiko trying to walk down the street.

Oh no, I thought she was asleep when we left. He says.

She throws her arms around his chest and falls into him, he holds her up but only to stop her from breaking her nose on the ground. She looks up at him, Cannn yooou waalk mee home *hiccup*.

He turns his face from her breath, the foul smell of digested Sake is enough to make any man throw up no matter how strong his stomach may be.

-sigh- I can't let her go home like this, someone might take advantage of her.

Karasu smiles weakly, I understand, I'll talk to you tomorrow I guess.

He tries to take her hand in his but Saiko drags him in the other direction.

DAMN YOU SAIKO! I hope you have the worst hangover of your life.-sigh- I really needed to sleep tonight.

Sadly Karasu watches as he is dragged down the road, he turns back and waves slightly, she waves back, once hes out of her sight Karasu lowers her head and begins to walk home...alone. She smiles when she realizes she can still smell him, looking down she wraps her arms around his flak jacket.

Maybe I will be able to sleep tonight.

She hurries home to escape her cold legs, once inside she walks to the balcony and looks towards his building. The lights are all dark in his apartment, sadden she sits on her couch, looking around the room, she inhales his scent deeply, she hugs his jacket and her eyes begin to close.

--

This is my place, you want to come in for some tea. Saiko states stopping at a door

Huh? Since when are you sober? He questions

Oh, well, I have been, I just needed to get her away from you.

You ARE crazy! Kakashi says backing away from Saiko.

What?! I am not! You are mine Kakashi Hatake, we have been together for awhile now, granted we have our bad times but the good ones are the ones we need to remember.

Are you serious? We have never been together! You need to stay away from me...and Karasu, do you hear me Saiko. If I see you hanging around either of us I will tell Tsunade.

But Kakashi-

In that instant he was gone, all that remained was a puff of smoke.

--

Jumping down to Karasu's balcony, Kakashi slowly opens the doors.

Its dark inside, but she might still be awake...

Walking in quietly he can hear her breathing, the moon light now lighting her sleeping face. She lays on the couch on her side, her arms wrapped around her, knees curled up.

She's still cold, I'll bring her to bed.

Picking her up bridal style Kakashi carries her sleeping body to the bedroom, she moans slightly when he lays her down.

You can't leave now. She says softly

And why is that? He asks

You woke me up, you know the drill. She says smirking.

Do you really want to sleep with my flak jacket on, plus your clothes?

Mmmm I am kind of cold, how will I stay warm if I change?

.uh...

Never mind. Karasu unzips the jacket never opening her eyes and hands it to him, she stands with her back to him she and takes off her top and shorts and throws on her silk pajamas. Her eyes still shut she lays back down on the bed, slides under the covers and begins to shiver. Kakashi can feel her shaking as he lays on the bed with only his pants on, he goes under the blanket with her, she curls up next to him but still shakes. He turns to his side and wraps his arms around her holding her close.

Mmmm you're so warm. She whispers.

Feeling his heart beat threw his chest she places her hand over his heart, and kisses next to it.

Karasu?

Yes.

Saiko wasn't drunk, she was pretending, to get me away from you.

What?!

Yes, I told her to leave us alone.

That crazy bi-

Before she knew it, she felt soft fabric on her lips, her eyes closed as she brought her hand up to remove his mask. She slid it down and caressed his cheek, she could feel a scar under his eye, she traced it with the back of her index finger. His hands slid slowly down her back and rested on her hips. Throwing her leg over his body she moved him closer to her, if that was possible. His hand slid down and followed her thigh, down to her calf and back up again. With his hand landing on her backside he gripped her tightly.

Karasu stopped kissing him suddenly and pulled back from Kakashi, looking up towards the ceiling he looked too. He heard and sensed what she did and replaced his mask. There was knock on her bedroom door.

Karasu, the Hokage requests you at the Medical Core.

I'll be right there, thank you.

Thank you for interrupting us! Ugh!

I have to go. She says to him kissing his nose and quickly dressing.

Stay. She says with a smile and leaves her room adjusting her Medical gear.

Placing his head back on the soft pillow, Kakashi adjusts his now extreme hard on.

I can't believe we just got interrupted by ANBU, at least they didn't just appear in the room, that would have been some what awkward.

Closing his eyes, he figures he'll just rest for a bit, then go home.
