They finally make an appearance.

And they just don't seem very evil at all do they?

As always read and review.

If I dont get twenty reviews more on this one I'm discontinuing it.

Naru was acting different. Kakashi thought with a frown as he glanced at the girl. She had cried herself to sleep last night, and this morning when he had woken up she had just stepped out of the bathroom after cutting her nearly waist length hair so that it fell just shy of the middle of her back which she then braided and left the room to fix them both breakfast while he took a shower. But that was'nt the only strange thing that she had done this morning.

She was dressed more girly, in a sleeveless low cut black shirt over a long sleeved red mesh shirt, fingerless gloves, shorts that showed off her long slender shapely, sexy legs. And she had eaten eggs this morning instead of getting sick and puking for ten minutes. "Is something wrong Kakashi?" She asked in a cold voice and he jumped and opened his mouth to say no but instead said,

"I was'nt looking at you!" Why did he sound so offended? Like the thought of looking at her lovely body upset him in some way. Way to go stupid, now she knows that you were looking at her. She turned her head to look at him but said nothing, simply picked up her pace and walked ahead of him and he blinked in shock when he realised that her hips were swaying slightly.

Holy shit. That walk of hers should be illegal! It was just so damn facinating. So enthralling. He was so caught up with watching her that he ran right into a steel pole attached to a stall in the market. He staggered back and shook his head to clear it and found her standing several feet away grinning at him knowingly.

"I was'nt looking."

"Uh-huh. I know." She said as he walked up to her and they started walking again. The little minx was playing with him. He could tell by the way she was smiling but he could'nt do anything about it except grin and bare it.

"Well I was'nt-" He almost snapped in irritation. "What's up with you today?" He finally asked as he looked at her. She blinked and looked away from him, not wanting to tell him that she was'nt the same person that she had been yesterday.

Last night had been a wake up call. She could'nt afford to be weak when the others came for her. And they would, it was only a matter of time before they came for her and took her from the village kicking and screaming. Breathing or dead. Kakashi was staring a hole through her, waiting for her to answer.

Finally after almost five minutes of total silence she shrugged and said, "Dunno. Head wound."

"Head wound?" Kakashi repeated stupidly and she shrugged again. She was'nt about to tell him that she felt like a switch had been flipped in her mind. That she was now a danger to everyone, even herself. She felt like a wolf on the prowl for prey. It was an odd but not entirely unpleasent feeling.

"Do you need to see a doctor?" Kakashi asked gently, concern coloring his tone. She looked up at him again and shook her head no.

A doctor would'nt be able to help her. Not even if she was put under a genjutsu or on meds. She knew what was wrong with her, she was on guard, her defenses up and ready for anything. They finally reached the bridge after a forty five minute walk the long way around the block and found Sakura and Sauske standing there waiting for them. "Hey guys!" Naru called out with a grin.

Sauske turned his head to greet her back but went slack jawed and started choking as soon as he saw what Naru was wearing. Sakura, not missing a beat whistled and run up to the blond and hugged her. "Oh my god Naru! You look hot."

Sakura said as she pulled back from the hug and stared at the outfit. Damn. Who knew that Naru was such a fem fatale. Sakura looked over at Sauske and hissed at the teen like a snake. "Say something jackass."

"Gurable goo-"

"See Sauske likes it too." Sakura said cheerfully and made a mental note to take Naru by Ino's place later to let her see the blond's new look since she used to make fun of her lack of sexyness. The bitch.

Naru said nothing again until they were well into their training. Kakashi had split the kids into two to spar. Sakura and Sauske spared together since Kakashi had mentioned something to the effect of. "I can't in good concious let Naru go against Sauske...she'd murder him when he would'nt stop staring at her breasts. Naru, your with me."

Kakashi was amased by how feirce Naru was. By the time their little spar was over, he had some nice black and blue spots on his ribs, his nipples hurt (from where she had given him a titty twister) and his jaw felt like it was broken where she had punched him. But despite all of those things he was really very proud of his most fragile student. She had kicked his ass good, and that was'nt easy to do even on a good day.

He sat on the ground panting and laughing for several seconds before looking up and seeing Naru well with in arms reach and grasped her wrist and pulled her down into his lap. "Your so evil." He said as she looked at him.

"I didn't mean to do that titty twister thing." But it was his own fault for tripping half way through the spar and falling face first against her.

"It's fine Naru. I didn't mean to see your-" He looked down at her chest for a second before looking at her face again. "Uh, assets up close and personal either. That must have been very uncomfortable for you."

"Yeah." No. It had'nt been uncomfortable for her at all. She was used to people playing with her body, but when he had accidentally palmed one of her tits as he started to push himself back and away from her she had struck out blindly because she was'nt sure if she should just stand there and take it or not.

It had felt sort of nice. He had'nt squeezed or hurt her any. She was'nt used to that, someone not hurting her when they touched her. Kakashi kissed her forehead and let her go. "Go see what Sauske and Sakura are doing. I can't hear them anymore." Kakashi said as he pushed her slightly as soon as she was standing up. He had a little issue that he needed to take care of and didn't want her to notice it.

"Okay." Naru said as she started walking away.

"Take your time." Kakashi called out and waved at her. He waited until she was out of sight before he looked down at him lap and growled. What kind of teacher got a hard on for one of his students? The kind that want's to fuck one of his students. His mind hissed.

He was'nt that kind of person... He gave a muted laugh, the sound was jaded and cynical sounding to his ears but told him much more about his own thoughts and his heart than he cared to realise. He was that kind of person, he loved Naru but she had been badly hurt and abused all her life and he didn't want to fall into the same pattern of behaivor as all of her other tormentors.

If she allowed him to touch her-and this was a big, huge 'if' he would'nt fuck her and then walk away like he had with Anko. He would make love to her, slowly, easily. He would take his time with her, and cherish her.

But for now he really needed to do something about his erection.
