Diclaimer: Taku's unable to confirm or DENY the truth behind the rumors of Taku's ownership over Naruto/Harry Potter. Why you ask? Taku's stuck in a meeting with a bunch of lawyers pleading for the Authors life.

Note: So I'm sure you've noticed that we've gone from quad monthly to bimonthly updates, there is a reason for this. I won't be updating for a while because I'm leaving for New York City on the 16th and won't have access to my computer. As such, I finished the ItachiShura AU thing-y and put it up in Puppies of a Feather to make up for my uncoolness.

It took a week, but Shurachi was finally standing in the Hokage's office with Lupin Remus in a chair in front of the desk and three other shinobi standing patiently behind him. The thought of taking a mission outside out his world rankled on him, knowing he wouldn't be able to rush to his pups aid raised his hackles, and Lupin's excited scent didn't help at all.

"So the payment is settled. You only have them as long as they are willing to stay and any deaths will be taken into account when you are charged." The excited scent faded a little, replaced by anxiety.

"Deaths?" He asked, a little hesitant.

Sarutobi smiled sharply, enjoying his revenge on the Inuzuka clan leaders behalf. "Yes. Many shinobi are the soul income for their families. The village gives the family of any lost shinobi a monthly stipend that is directly proportional to any and all missions the shinobi took during life."

More nervousness peppered the air and Shurachi smiled a little at the Hokage. "If a shinobi mainly took high risk, high paying missions then that is the income the family will receive. For long term missions this income falls on the customers shoulders. Failure to pay this monthly support will result in retribution on the customers entire family."

There was a spike of fear, but also relief. Almost as if he wasn't worried about not being able to pay should one of them die.

This irritated Shurachi slightly, but he ignored it in favor of getting things over with. "We will leave immediately, I don't want to be away for to long." Understanding shuffling came from the shinobi behind him and the office quickly emptied.

Two days into the journey that would take them to the gateway between the dimensions they had to stop for the night. When they'd done so before it had always been for a few hours in the daylight so they wouldn't be caught unawares in the dark. Remus couldn't keep such a schedule however, and so they set up camp for a proper night of rest; at least, a proper night of rest for their client.

Shurachi was switching his post as watcher with Hajime when an enticing scent wafted over his nose. It was enough to cover the ever growing stench of wolf that filled the camp and he tilted his head to catch more of it. Hajime took notice, and recognized the move from when his brother had still been alive.

"Something smell good Shura-chan?" He murmured, careful not to wake any of the others.

His companion shot him a mildly annoyed look and motioned for him to be quiet. The scent grew stronger in his nose and he took a step toward it. "I'm going to check out what it is, if anything happens at camp while I'm gone send Doku for me."

The dog whined quietly, not liking the idea of being left behind, but a look from Shurachi quieted him. There would be much petting to make up for this, but he would let his human go without him this once.

Hajime merely nodded, knowing he wouldn't be able to stop him anyway, and Shurachi was off. His form flitted through the trees as if he were on the ground and that tantalizing scent thickened until he could hardly smell anything else.

Something was wrong with it though; was trying to cover it from him. He could smell another on the wind. When he came upon the clearing that held Haku and an unknown boy, Shurachi was less than coherent. The instincts screaming in him were just barely kept in check by his uncertainty toward the smaller male.

When the quiet grunt of whoever that other boy was reached his ears, followed closely by Haku's loud moan, those misgivings fled his mind quickly. The scent of quickening arousal and another male on what was his was enough to trigger the mating reflex all Inuzuka men carried thanks to the family jutsu.

Without thought to what he was doing, Shurachi dropped silently into the clearing and stalked toward the pair. Haku opened his eyes in time to see Shurachi looming menacingly over them and found himself unable to even call a warning before the boy atop him was roughly removed by the scruff of his neck.

"What," snarled Shurachi, flashing sharp canines, "did you think you were doing, exactly?" Haku shivered at the menacing voice and pulled his decorative kimono closed enough to appear decent, if not coy.

Urine scented the air as the boy wet his pants, which Shurachi was satisfied to note had barely been undone. "W-we were just-!"

He didn't get a chance to finish his plea as Shurachi shook him once roughly and shot him a look of disgust. "I wasn't talking to you boy, I was talking to him." Again, green eyes pierced Haku.

Red stained pale cheeks as he looked away, feeling suddenly ashamed. "I was just curious Inuzuka-san."

If it were possible, the boy held tight in Shurachi's grasp paled further and mouthed the name at Haku, who refused to look in his direction.

"And you didn't think to ask Zabuza about it? Go to someone who wouldn't be such a…disgrace?" He sneered at the reek of more unpleasant things leaking from the boy and tossed him to the side. He didn't waste any time in scrambling away from them and into the forest.

Neither really noticed as they were to focused on each other. "I did talk with him about it, he said to find a village boy and test out my seduction skills."

Goose flesh crawled over Shurachi as the scent of Haku's arousal spiked suddenly. Brown eyes had flickered to his form briefly and he had to bite his tongue to keep from dropping atop the younger man.

"Besides Inuzuka-san, it isn't like I belong to you."

There was hurt in those words, longing so obvious that not even Shurachi could miss it. The need to claim this willing sacrifice flared sharply, calling to him more than the memory of Koishi ever had. He could feel the old spark igniting, blazing hot and bright in wait for the fuel it craved.

Before he knew it he'd taken that extra step and straddled the prone form below him. He kept his hands clenched at his thighs, desperate to gain some sort of control over himself.

Teary eyes turned up at him, pleading quietly. "Why are you so reluctant Inuzuka-san? Am I so unappealing to you?" Haku sniffled quietly and raised a silken sleeve to wipe at the tears slowly trailing down his cheeks.

He shattered, falling into a million razor edged pieces that cut his skin until he bled. Slicing everything that made sense, everything he should have considered, in favor of the pliant body beneath him. The tight seal he'd had on his hands, his lips, was violently ripped open on the pieces of his mind.

Fingers lightly trailed over wet cheeks, gently wiping the moisture away, and pink lips parted to utter those damning words. "You can't be with another, not for a mission, and certainly not for pleasure. You will be mine alone to hold and touch."

Haku's breath caught at the implications of the words, but Shurachi continued heedless to the gasp. "Inuzuka do not share and even the scent of another on you will be intolerable. I cannot take you back to my pack just yet, but if I find you have let another touch you as I will…" He trailed off and let the threat hang in the air.

Green eyes softened as a choked sob escape the smaller male and pale arms lifted to wrap around his neck. "Please Inuzuka-san, please?"

Calloused fingers ran through mussed hair, tugging briefly. "You have no need to be so formal with me lovely one."

Chapped lips caught moistened pink in a promising kiss and the scent, while still strong, loosened its hold on him enough that he could pull himself back to reality. The warm glow in his eyes remained, but the intense feeling about him lessened back to the gentle feeling Haku had always gotten around the Inuzuka clan leader.

"I must go, but I will return for you." Shurachi removed himself completely from Haku and stood back up. "No more village boys." Haku could only nod, small sniffles escaping him as he watched his lover? Boyfriend? Lord? Walk away from him.

Zabuza and Shurachi passed each other and the message that passed between them, silent as it was, was understood. Shurachi would entrust Haku to Zabuza until he could claim him properly.

The rest of the trip was uneventful, not even the attack of some bandits really stirred the shinobi from their indifferent feelings toward this mission. When they reached the land of ice, and the gate, it was only a little trepidation that made each of them pause, look about their home world, and then step through.

On the other side of the portal was a place full of bustling people, screeching pets, chattering children, and the whistle of a candy red steam train. Remus relaxed for the first time in over a year and smiled widely at the tensed shinobi.

"Welcome gentlemen, to wizarding Britain's finest method of muggle travel. Platform Nine and Three Quarters."
