The moment Tsunade came to the door of the temporary home of Kakashi and Iruka, she knew that something was wrong. Inoichi glaze was surveying the area with experienced trained eyes. He saw nothing but was concerned with how tense his Hokage became just a moment ago.
Something was wrong but he didn't sense or see what it could possibly be.
"My Lady," he called out. "Is there something wrong?"
"I don't know." she said and that was never a good thing. "Let's proceed."
The 'with caution' went unannounced but the feeling was there. Inoichi didn't miss it and tensely followed after his Hokage and was on guard incase something did happen.
Fortunately, nothing did happen when Tsunade opened the door and continued to walk into the house, with Inoichi following closely behind her.
In the house was blue carpeting with tan walls. It wasn't the best match in the world but it would do it's purpose for the time being. There was no pictures on the wall, but why would there be if it was just a safe house.
There was little furniture in the small home; a table here and a desk there. Inoichi was not impressed but he wasn't one to judge on these things. He knew that if someone really did live here and it wasn't just for show, this house could look decent and mean something to someone.
There were stairs across from the door way from where they stood. Tsunade began heading towards them and he followed her ready for anything.
They made quick work on the stairs and after a single moment they were on the second floor. Again, there was no pictures, not even of art, on the walls. Everything was bare and it was still tan with blue carpet.
In the hall way there were three doors; two were open, one was not. From where Inoichi could see, the first door was a small bathroom with a toilet and sink and a shower. He couldn't tell what colors the room had for the lights were off and the door was only ajar enough to get the jest of what was inside. The second door was closed but at the far end of the hall way, Inoichi could make out some kind of closet that had nothing in it. Only more proof that no one truly lived in this house.
Tsunade stopped at the second door, the one that was closed.
"In here." she grabbed the handle. "Try not gawk at him."
"Understood." he spoke cause, of course, he wasn't going to stare at Kakashi. He was professional!
When Tsunade opened the door he thought he could handle the sight before him. He didn't think he was going to have much of a reaction to it cause he was already told before hand of what to expect. He thought he was ready.
He was not.
"Oh my…" he mumbled. His blue/green eyes widened in shock. He was not expecting this.
Iruka was laying in bed with a blanket firmly tucked over him. He was slightly pale and his face showed nothing but peace. If Inoichi wasn't told otherwise, he would have thought that Iruka had passed away in his sleep on moments before him getting here.
Kakashi on the hand, wasn't something he could picture in his head, even now. The silver nin, after using much effort, was now sitting up with his back leaning against the tan walls of the house. He had no headband on, nor a mask. He had his eyes closed and was panting slightly from exhausting from getting up. He was overly pale. He was light skinned normally but this was a sickly pale.
He looks like he's going to be sick. Inoichi thought as he looked over to his fellow comrade.
Kakashi had one hand clenching the bed's sheets while the other rested on his large stomach. It was defiantly a sure sign of his pregnancy. Still, Inoichi almost couldn't believe what he was seeing. However, Inoichi's eyes narrowed, Kakashi looked he was farther along then what Tsunade had told him.
He knew because of his wife's pregnancy with Ino. She was no where near as large as Kakashi at eight and a half weeks.
Inoichi turned his eyes to his Hokage with a questioned look. She ignored him.
"Kakashi." she softly called out. Tsunade was worried. Kakashi looked worse than when she left him.
Kakashi's eyes snapped open as if he just realized that he wasn't the only one in the room anymore. Yes, Tsunade confirmed, something was indeed wrong.
"Did something happen?"
Kakashi looked at her and then at Inoichi, then back at her again. She got his hidden signal. He didn't want to say it in front of the other being in the room. It was for her ears only.
"No." he said. "I'm fine. Just tired."
Tsunade nodded understanding.
"As you know Inoichi is here to help Iruka and to see if there is a chance saving him." Tsunade continued as she walked farther in the room.
"Will you be able to save him?" Kakashi couldn't help but ask. This was pretty much Iruka's last chance to be saved and if Inoichi couldn't do, then there was little to no hope left after that.
"I'll do my best." Inoichi said as he headed towards Kakashi. "I'm going to need to see your stomach though."
Kakashi tensed at the words. The hand resting on bulge tightened over the stretched flesh.
"Do you have to?"
Inoichi was taken back from the tone in his words. It was almost if it brought great pain to Kakashi if he touched the other's stomach. Despite this, Inoichi nodded. There was no other way he could do this correctly without seeing the source of where Iruka was being hidden at.
"Kakashi is a little bit sensitive of his stomach." he heard Tsunade whisper in his ear.
Inoichi, of course, understood why Kakashi felt like that. He was a man after all, pregnant, and from what he could tell, farther along than a mere eight and a half weeks.
"Kakashi," Inoichi said. "How far along are you? Tsunade-sama said eight and a half weeks, but I can tell that, that is inaccurate."
The blonde was shocked when Kakashi nervously pulled his attention to Tsunade, as if he didn't know how to explain it.
Weird… Inoichi thought. Kakashi is usually never nervous or afraid of anything and yet, in this situation, he's like a completely different guy.
"I did not lie when I said Kakashi was eight and a half weeks along." Tsunade spoke for Kakashi. "However, I did leave out certain details. Despite of how far along he is, it seems that the pregnancy is going faster than a normal one. Though, he is eight and a half weeks, the pregnancy itself in actuality is seventeen weeks."
"Jeez…" Inoichi was speechless. He did the math in his head. "He's over four month pregnant."
Tsunade nodded. She was keeping a close eye on Kakashi as the information was revealed. Though Kakashi knew how long exactly he was, didn't mean he acknowledged it.
The man kept his face blank.
"Can we just get this over with." Kakashi said with an edge tone to his voice. "The more we wait the greater the chance we won't get Iruka back."
That snapped Inoichi out of his gawking. Kakashi was right. With all the talking he did, he could have found Iruka by now, if the man was still in there somewhere.
"Right, sorry." Inoichi got to work. "Please lift up your shirt. I'm going to need to write on your skin for this jutsu."
Kakashi didn't like this. Not one bit. The only people who were allowed to see his stomach was Iruka and on the rare occasion Tsunade-sama. Inoichi was defiantly not one of those people.
However, Kakashi sighed and closed his eyes. This is for Iruka and I'll do anything for Iruka. I need him. The kids need him, especially if I die along the way.
Kakashi moved his hands and pulled his shirt up far enough to see his entire belly but stopped half way up his torso. Inoichi only needed his stomach, there was no reason to take his shirt completely off.
"Good." Inoichi didn't not stare and he did not question Kakashi. This was business only. "Please be very still."
That was a problem for Kakashi. The ink and brush tickled his stretched skin and Kakashi fought hard not to move. It use to be easy to sit still for this kind of thing but ever since the pregnancy, his stomach was very sensitive and his nerve endings were flaring with each stroke of the brush.
"Okay." Inoichi said when he was done with his writing. The image on Kakashi's stomach was made from words and symbols forming a circle around the bulging flesh, sprouting out in lines from the circle.
"What's next?" asked Kakashi.
"Tsunade-sama said that Iruka was in Naruto's head when the connection broke. So I need to bypass you to get to Naruto, hence the writing. This jutsu I'm about to perform can become highly unstable if performed wrong. I need complete silence, and for you to not move while I'm working. It'll be better if you lay down to limit your movement." Inoichi explained as he put his writing tools down.
Kakashi nodded and struggled to lay down. Inoichi helped the silver man down even when said ninja protested saying he could do it himself.
"There." Inoichi was pleased when they were able to get the pregnant man laying on the bed properly. "Now…"
Inoichi moved towards Iruka.
"What are you doing?" Kakashi was alarmed with the other man's movements.
"It's okay, Kakashi." Inoichi soothed as he moved over to Iruka's side of the bed. "I need to write on him too. It's to ensure that when I find Iruka in Naruto I'll be able to guide him back to his body."
Kakashi calmed somewhat at his explanation as he picked up his brush and ink again and started writing on Iruka's forehead. It was a circle too. The circle sprouting out lines going towards the brunette's temples.
"Now, I can start." Inoichi went to Kakashi and lightly put his hand in the middle of the circle he had drawn previously. "Remember, hold still."
Kakashi nodded and closed his eyes praying one last time, hoping that this works.
