Kakashi passed through the gates to the village, and contemplated going to see the Hokage. As quickly as the idea came, he cast it aside, and turned towards his apartment. If he was lucky, Kei would be home and they could do something together.
He entered the bedroom, and instantly noticed the note sitting on the pillow. Reading it, he felt a sigh leave his lips. Kei was away, and he would need to punish Kotetsu for trying to corrupt his innocent brother. Kakashi has worked hard keeping Kei away from certain things. He had hid all his Icha Icha books, and forbid anyone mentioning sex or sex related things around Kei. Kei would always be innocent in that aspect, if Kakashi had his way.
Sighing again, Kakashi resigned himself to a quick wash, and then reporting to the Hokage. It wasn't like the old man would be waiting for him to report on time. Kakashi hadn't done something that silly in years.
When Kakashi arrived in the Hokage's office he spent some time contemplating adding a cushioned bench to the windowsill. Kei liked to sit there, and it would make it more comfortable.
"Kakashi, are you ever going to make your report?" The Hokage's wizened voice drifted through Kakashi's thoughts.
"I am contemplating a bench." Kakashi told the leader in a serious voice.
"Just report." Sarutobi let out a small sigh.
"Successful, no other casualties, and no tracks back to here." Was the prompt response.
"Good, I expect the written report on me desk by the morning."
"How long do you think it would take to build a bench here?" Kakashi asked as he waved his hand at the Hokage's previous statement.
"Depends whose building it. You? Forever. Anyone else . . . maybe a few hours."
"It's for Kei!" Kakashi told the old man, while showing how insulted he was at the previous comment.
"Kei? Well then maybe an hour if you get the materials quickly. Wait, why are you building a bench in my office?" The Hokage took his turn to look affronted.
"Well-" Kakashi was cut off when an ANBU suddenly appeared in front of the Hokage's desk.
"Sorry to interrupt Hokage-sama, but Team 2 had just arrived back and are currently being escorted to the hospital."
"Yoshi's team?" The Hokage sent a worried look to the frozen Jounin near the window.
"Yes Hokage-sama. All members have received injuries, but one is currently in critical condition." The ANBU said in a monotone voice.
"Which one?" Kakashi demanded.
The ANBU turned slightly to face the masked Jounin and said in his monotone voice "Your brother."
Kakashi didn't bother waiting around as he jumped out the window and rushed to the hospital. He arrived at the front doors, and slammed them open as he ran to where he spotted Yoshi.
"What happened?" Kakashi ground out as he clutched the other Jounin's shirt in his fist.
"We're not sure. . ." the scared Jounin trailed off.
"Yoshi-sensei, why don't you go get healed. Akemi-chan and I will explain to Hatake-san." Kakashi turned his head to see a large teenage boy with a few bandages. Beside him stood a haughty looking girl who was also sporting a few bandages around her arms.
"Right, sounds good to me." Yoshi quickly extracted himself from the situation when Kakashi released his shirt.
"Explain." Kakashi glared at the pair in front of him. He knew who they were. He had dropped in on some of Kei's D-rank missions and training sessions to check out his team.
"We were on our way back from Mist, we decided to set up camp, but Kei sensed someone nearby. Yoshi-sensei went to inspect, but Kei sensed more enemies and we went to help. We started fighting, Kei took out one enemy, and I took out the second. The third enemy nin saw and fled with the scroll we were carrying. Kei was hurt with a broken leg, so we left him in the clearing while we chased the enemy. We just recovered the scroll when we heard his scream. We got back to the clearing but the second nin was laying on top of him dead, and Kei was coughing up blood. We rushed him back here." Rikoto explained.
"Why was he left alone?" Kakashi was starting to think of way to murder Yoshi without being caught. He was a Jounin, he should know to never leave an injured comrade alone when you have people to spare. He hardly thought it took three shinobi to recover one scroll from one nin.
"The brat told us all to go. It's his own fault." Kakashi glared at the girl who just spoke.
"What do you mean?" Kakashi hissed. Kakashi noticed that the boy seemed nervous about something. "Answer me." Kakashi demanded.
"Akemi-chan was ordered to stay with him, but she didn't want to, so Kei told us all to pursue the enemy." Rikoto rushed out before shooting the girl an apologetic look.
"You abandoned a comrade?" Kakashi increased his glare towards the girl. Not only was she disrespecting the shinobi ways, but she also abandoned his baby brother.
"How was I supposed to know the second guy wasn't dead. . ."
"You don't but that doesn't justify leaving an injured teammate alone. If you listened to your sensei, then you probably could have stopped Kei being hurt. I wouldn't have to hear from ANBU that my baby brother is in critical condition. "Kakashi noted that the girl started to look a little guilty. He didn't care though. Looking guilty after the incident didn't heal his brother.
"You better hope he's okay, because if he doesn't recover, then no tracking team alive will be able to find your tortured and mutilated body." Kakashi growled at the girl. Kakashi watched as fear filled the young kunoichi eyes, but he merely turned and stalked down the hall trying to find Kei.
An hour later Kakashi was finally admitted to see Kei. Kakashi wanted to cry at the sight of his little brother. He looked too young and innocent to be lying in a hospital bed, covered in bandages and bruises. They were feeding him oxygen through his facemask, and his leg was heavily covered.
"Hatake-san. . ." one of the medic nin hesitantly spoke.
"Tell me everything." Kakashi demanded without taking his eyes from Kei.
"One of his legs was broken, there was several abrasion, and a cut on his cheek-"
"Did anyone see his face?" Kakashi harshly interrupted.
"The more senior medics stopped anyone who attempted to remove his mask." The medic replied.
Kakashi let out a sigh of relief, before he waved his hand for them to continue.
"Besides there were no other broken bones. . ."
"But" Kakashi prompted.
"There seems to be serious injury to his chest and nerve damage throughout the body. We sent out for a few more experienced medics to come in and heal what they can." The medic finished their report and silently stood by.
"Where are his things?" Kakashi couldn't do anything right now, but he could at least have everything ready for when Kei woke up.
"The table by the door."
Kakashi didn't move. He stood by Kei's bed, holding his bandaged hand until two medics came in. They explained where they were taking Kei and why. Kakashi let him, but he stood in the doorway watching them move his brother until they rounded a corner. He turned towards the table and organized everything there. Kakashi noted that Kei's knives, prussian tessen, and the sabre were missing.
Kakashi walked back to the waiting room where Rikoto and Akemi were sitting. Rikoto seemed to be ignoring the girl, and staring at the wall with a fierce intensity.
"Did you retrieve Kei's things?" Kakashi directed his question towards Rikoto.
"What? No, we left everything and immediately took him here." Rikoto answered. He seemed to debate with himself before asking, "How is he?"
"Bad. Where were you attacked? I want the exact location of your camp and the clearing you fought."
Rikoto quickly listed off the coordinates, and Kakashi pulled up a mental map and plotted them. After that, he left the two in the waiting room and went to the Hokage. He needed to have a chat with the old man.
Kakashi stood in front of the Hokage with a serious expression. "I'm leaving to retrieve Kei's things, and I'm resigning from ANBU."
o.O.o
Kei woke up and felt sore. It wasn't a normal sore. It was more of a tingling sore. He tried to check his body but as soon as he tried to move his fingers, a wave of burning pain shot through his arm and made him gasp.
"I don't think that's the best idea." He heard a fuzzy voice from his left side. It sounded like it was far off and coming through a wall. Kei opened his eyes wanting to see who it was, but once his eyes opened, they burned from the bright light. Kei hissed and his shoulder jerked at the unexpected pain to his eyes. This only led to another burning wave of pain down his arm and chest, making him let out an agonizing groan. Moving was a terrible thing at the moment.
"I wouldn't do that either." The fuzzy voice sounded amused with a slight waver. Kei wanted to hit or throw something at the person, but he doubted the pain for such an action would be worth it. "You're in pretty bad shape Kei-chan."
Kei concentrated on the voice. It sounded familiar but still fuzzy. He tried thinking harder, but his head started pounding. Kei let out a whimper and decided thinking was just as bad at moving. "Kei-chan are you okay? Do I need to yell for someone?" The fuzzy voice turned frantic, but Kei finally realized whom it was.
"K-kiba?" Kei rasped. The action burned his throat and he started coughing. Kei felt his body being drenched in the constant waves of pain as his body refused to stop coughing. The coughs were being mixed in or with his groans and whimpers of pain, but they wouldn't stop. Through the noise he was making he barely heard as Kiba started yelling for help. Kei felt something liquid in his throat before a coppery taste hit his tongue and he fell into blackness again.
o.O.o
Kakashi dropped by the Inuzuka compound before he left and told Tsume what happened. He watched as Kiba had rushed to Kei's side, and felt better that he knew someone he trusted/liked would be by Kei's side as he was out.
He arrived at the clearing and grabbed Kei's bag. He considered taking his teammates stuff, but that was his own little revenge, to leave it since none of them had stayed to protect Kei. Plus, if they really wanted it, they could retrieve it themselves.
At the clearing where they fought, he inspected both the dead bodies. One was covered in cuts that were burned around the edges. Kakashi noted that this was the first one Kei must have killed. Two feet away, he picked up Kei's knives. When he walked over to the second body, he spotted the tessen. Itachi may have betrayed the village, but Kei still cherished the tessen. Kakashi would never get rid of them, simply because Kei treasured them.
Kakashi stood by the second body and used his foot to roll it over. He saw the tanto sticking out from the heart area, and another chest wound. Kakashi inspected it and saw that it was pretty shallow and missed anything critical. This nin had obviously played dead, and no one noticed.
Kakashi wished the man was still breathing. Just to take one death off Kei's conscious, and so he could personally be the reason that the shinobi left this world. Kakashi knew he couldn't always be there to protect Kei, but that didn't stop his desire to always shield Kei. He had spent many nights thinking about his choice to push Kei along the same path he was pushed on. He had stupidly believed Kei wouldn't have to face the same horrors he had to. He didn't think Kei would have his first kill at 6.
Kakashi selfishly wanted to demand the Hokage only assign Kei risk-free D-rank missions, until he was 20 or 30. . . Or at least until Kakashi died. But, the only thing Kakashi could do was quit ANBU and be around for Kei more. He already turned in his mask. Now the next Inu ANBU could do all the dangerous missions. Kakashi wouldn't worry about that mask again.
Kakashi pulled the tanto out of the shinobi's chest, and wiped most of the blood off on the dead man's pants. Looking at both bodies one more time, Kakashi stored the weapons and left.
o.O.o
Kei woke a second time, and noticed that the tingling soreness wasn't as intense this time around. He moved one finger and let out a sigh of relief that all he felt was a twinge of pain and soreness and a slight stiffness. He felt someone starting to pet his hair, but resisted the urge to open his eyes.
"Don't move or talk. I'm going to have everyone leave the room, and then I'll give you ice shavings for your throat." Kei didn't bother nodding, but he did feel a small smile when he heard his brothers voice.
Kei heard the door close and then felt as his mask was lowered. He felt the coldness on his lips and opened them slightly.
"The room is pretty dark, so you should be able to open your eyes." Kei listened to his brother and slowly opened them.
The room was dark, but he could still see Kakashi's worried face clearly. There was a small pounding behind his eyes but he ignored it. "Nii-san. . ."
"Otouto . . . I'm so glad you're okay." Kakashi starting stroking Kei's cheek as he took in his little brothers face. "You've been out for a few days." He quietly told Kei.
"Nii-san. . . I . . ." Kei tried to speak, but tears were filling his eyes.
"I know Otouto, we'll get through this together, and I promise to be around whenever you need me." Kakashi climbed into the bed and wrapped his arms around Kei.
"Does it . . .e-ever get. . . e-easier?" Kei choked out as he curled himself into Kakashi.
"The first few times you kill are the hardest, but then you remember that you are doing what is best for your life and what is best for the village. The enemy attacked you first, and you defended yourself. Every time a shinobi accepts a mission, they must prepare themselves to die or to kill. It's not that it gets easier, it's just that you get used to the blood." Kakashi whispered.
"When I kill I remind myself that I do this so I can make it safer for you. So there is one less bad guy out there to hurt you. Afterwards I find a way to honour the life I took. You should always honour the person in some way. Whether it is just remembering their name, or giving them a goodbye."
"How do I honour them this time? I don't know their names." Kei whispered back as he turned his large watery eyes on his brother.
"I retrieved your weapons. There's still blood on the sabre and the knives. When you feel better, we will clean them. As the blood washes away so will your guilt, and the water can cleanse their souls. You can say good bye that way and have honoured them." Kakashi suggested.
"What if you get a mission?"
"I quit ANBU and I took a small vacation. I am all yours for the next week or so." Kakashi watched as a small smile formed on Kei's face and his canine teeth stuck out a little.
"What's this? Extended time with me at least deserves more than a small smile. Come on, I want to see all your teeth and twinkling eyes!" Kakashi lightly reprimanded his brother. Kei broke out into a big smile and Kakashi lowered his mask to show off his matching one.
o.O.o
The next few weeks Konoha witnessed something slightly terrifying. The first day Kei was released they saw the brothers walking to the river hand in hand. They didn't think anything of it. After that, the pair would be seen at various places in the village reading.
They wouldn't have bothered with the sight except for a few things. Kei was dressed similar to Kakashi, they would stand in the exact same position, and they both held an orange book. A famous orange book.
Several shinobi were scared that Kei was turning into an exact replica of his brother. Kakashi was known to be lazy, but that was only outside of missions. On missions, people heard tales about his ruthless and bloody killing style. One Chuunin had told his friends that he witnessed Kakashi returning from a mission soaked in blood and had stayed that way for days, because he liked how it felt.
The Chuunin's tale had spread far and many were eyeing the pair in fear. If Kakashi was that way, then Kei was probably right behind him. When the rumours spread about Kakashi another rumour popped up about Kei. This one told how he had single-handily killed off waves of Mist nin and had laughed the entire time as he jumped in their puddles of blood.
The brothers ignored the rumours, while other Genin and Chuunin started taking alternate routes whenever they encountered the brothers. Their resemblance and rumours were too much for the faint-hearted.
The villagers got a treat a few days later. Kurenai had stormed into the marketplace, where the brothers were currently reading in a windowsill, and marched over to them.
"Hatake Kakashi, what do you think you are doing letting Kei read that stuff!" the kunoichi yelled as she pointed towards the offending orange books.
"What do you mean?" The brothers asked as they tilted their heads to the side. The villagers shivered in fear at the synchronization.
"Those filthy porn books you're reading." The kunoichi fumed.
"What's porn? I'm reading a children's book Kurenai-san" Kei told the woman.
"What?" Kurenai grabbed the book from Kei's hands and flipped it over to read the title "The Adventures of Satoshi the Young Shogi Master. But Kakashi you always read porn!" Kurenai tried to point out to save face.
"I'm also reading 'Satoshi the Young Shogi Master'" Kakashi said as he showed the kunoichi the cover of his orange book. "Really, Kurenai, you should be ashamed, talking about such things when young, impressionable, shinobi are around." Kakashi said as he covered Kei's ears. "Ashamed!"
"Nii-san, what's porn?" Kei asked.
"Porn is something bad that Kurenai likes to read. You should never read it or even touch it until you're at least 40, or I'm dead. It's absolutely terrible." Kakashi seriously told his young brother. "Now Kei, I think we should find a new spot to read. After all we were almost at the good part where Satoshi enters the finals."
Kakashi stole Kei's book back from a stunned Kurenai and the pair took off. Kurenai couldn't believe what had just happened, while the villagers thoughts were running wild. Kurenai apparently read porn, while the copy-nin spoke badly about it. Also, no one giggled like that when reading about Shogi. The villagers felt even more afraid of the Hatake brothers.
I had many amusing reviews last chapter. There are quite a few people possessive over Kei, and several funny suggestions for reality shows.
Someone pointed out that the Hatake brothers wouldn't be on a show because they would arrive 3 hours late.
True. I was going to ask a sports themed question this time around because I was watching 'Whistle' and 'Shion no ou',
but the same logic would probably apply if they were to join a sports team. They would never play because their late.
So the question will be. . . 'Rain! What's it's deal?' no. . . real question = 'Who would win in a fight: 6 year-old Kei or all 5 power rangers?'
