Chapter 7: Alls Fair in Love and War!
(\/)*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*(\/)
Naruto's POV
It was getting late and Iruka hadn't come home yet. Since I was staying with him for the holidays I had decorated the whole apartment. Alone. We usually decorated together but he never showed up so I decided to busy myself but ended up finishing the whole thing.
The doorbell rang.
"Hey Naruto! Is Iruka here?" Kakashi smiled down at me. I was happy for Iruka to have such a nice guy.
"No. In fact I was hoping he had been with you." I gave him my fox grin when I noticed he was in a kimono. "You look nice."
"Oh yeah this. I'm taking Iruka to the carnival tonight." Kakashi's eyed curved so I could tell he was smiling.
Kakashi had a black kimono on with gray designs. He still had his mask and leaf band on. Kakashi smiled at me when my eyes lighted up at the sound of a carnival. He sat down on a stool in the kitchen.
"Would you and Sasuke like to join us? We could start off as a double date then go off on our own ways. How does that sound?" Before Kakashi had even finished his last sentence I ran down the hall to find a kimono.
"Hey Naruto!" Kakashi yelled across the hall, "When was the last time you saw Iruka today?"
"This morning when we sparred. Remember we all left you and Iruka alone." I came running back in the room with two orange and blue kimonos in my arm.
I held up both the kimonos to Kakashi for his opinion. Usually Iruka would help me out but since he wasn't here; my thought was interrupted by the serious face Kakashi had.
"What's wrong Kakashi-sensei?" I knew that Iruka was later than usual but a lot of things weren't usual recently.
"Did Iruka contact you since then?" His voice seemed stern,
"No, Is there something going on? Tell me Kakashi." I wanted to know what he knew, if he knew anything.
"I don't know but maybe we should look for him." Kakashi tried to smile but it was hard for him. His boyfriend was missing, and Gai was the last person to see Iruka to Kakashi's knowledge so they were going there first.
"Yeah. But can we pick up Sasuke on the way?" I grabbed my orange kimono and put it on. Why even bother to change colors now.
We headed out the door as soon as I found sandals and chose an outfit for Iruka.
(\/)*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*(\/)
Iruka's head hurt. He tried to open his eyes but the flash of light coming form the window blinded him. Where was he? Why did his body ache so much?
"Ah! Iruka-sensei you awake!" a familiar voice laughed in the background as Iruka heard a door open.
"G.Gai-sensei? Ugh. My head hurts. Where are we?" Iruka finally able to open his eyes looked up at the smiling jounin. Then a chill went down his back.
"Why Iruka do you not remember?" Gai had an evil grin on his face.
"Why.why did you kidnap me?" Iruka raised his voice and glared at Gai.
"Don't worry I won't harm you. After all I'm one of the good guys." Gai stood up giving Iruka a stupid pose with his good guy thumbs up.
"LET ME GO N." Iruka's order was interrupted as he was suddenly gagged. The cloth was tightly pulled around Iruka's face and it hurt. All he could do was look up at Gai. Gai's face seemed to have changed.
"You're not going anywhere Iruka. Not until Kakashi is mine." Gai's face had a wicked smile and it scared Iruka.
Iruka couldn't do anything until Gai had left. This would be his only time to plan a way of escape and beat the crap out of that jounin. Iruka tried to stand but found it difficult with the way his feet were tied on each other. Iruka gazed out the window to check his surroundings only to see that the sun showed him he was late for his meeting with Kakashi.
Iruka was going to let Gai know never to underestimate him. He quickly looked around the room to find anything he could use for his advantage but seeing nothing tried to come up with a plan. Iruka was a ninja after all.
(\/)*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*(\/)
Gai's POV
This wasn't what I expected it to be that's for sure. I had long planned to fight Iruka but I don't know why I had the urge to kidnap the man. I was Iruka's superior; he was chunin while I was jounin. I wonder what Hokage- sama would do if he found out that I kidnapped his assistant.
I heard some noise coming from the room I left Iruka in. This was slightly disturbing since that room had nothing in it besides an old bed and maybe some dust.
"What are y.!" I couldn't believe it Iruka was out of his bonds and came flying towards me. I quickly grabbed a kunai and threw it at him.
Iruka turned into smoke. It was a clone and the kunai landed right beside the real Iruka who used it to rip the rope. With his hands free he untied the rest and took the gag out. All I could do was smile.
"Never thought of that." I laughed slowly as Iruka glared at me with a peeved smile on his face.
"Never thought I was that clever you mean."
"Well."
"I am a school teacher you know." Iruka's smile turned to one that was filled with pride and annoyance.
"That is duly noted. From now on I should give teachers more credit." I placed my hand on my hip and waited for Iruka to make the first move. He knew that I would beat him but I wanted to see how long he could last.
"Are we going to fight?" I started to get impatient, Iruka seemed to be having a staring contest with me, and I wanted to fight him.
"Why should we?" Iruka stood himself up in a proper soldier position.
"I kidnapped you. Hmmm. I gagged you. I plan on taking Kakashi away from you. Need I say more?" With that Iruka's face changed.
"If Kakashi doesn't want me anymore then there is nothing I can do.but as long as I have him I will not let him go so easy." Iruka just smiled at me with such a peace. It was annoying.
"But how long will it last Iruka? A few more weeks maybe a month if your lucky. I know Kakashi. He doesn't stay around commitment. You should be thanking me Iruka." I finally hit a nerve.
Iruka came towards me with a lot of speed but I was still able to out maneuver him. He would try to get me from behind and I would kick him. If he tried to get me with a set up I would punch him. Training with Kakashi seemed to have helped me tremendously throughout my life. Or the chunin exam has gotten to easy lately.
I grabbed Iruka's arms and pinned him to the wall. Poor boy, he was sweating and used that time to catch his breath.
"Kakashi might leave me." I looked down at him as my grip loosened so he slid down to the ground.
"But I would rather be sad remembering the time we had instead of being sad over the time I dreamed of." Iruka didn't smile when he said that.
Iruka was weird. I hated that. He always seemed to know what to say to make his opponents mad but at the same time admire his maturity in certain situations.
"Gai. Maybe you should thank me for letting you see why Kakashi could never be yours."
What did he just say? Did he just say that I could never have Kakashi? Iruka-sensei you might be a good person but what do you think your trying to pull? What am I supposed to see?
"I don't see anything Iruka." I glared down at him as he smiled a bit.
"I thought with your skills you would have noticed everything about Kakashi. Guess I was wrong." I grabbed Iruka's vest collar and picked him up.
"I know everything Iruka. Amuse me a bit. What do you think you know about that man?" My smirk was filled with hate. He challenged me to a contest I would win. Iruka I hope your not pissing me off for certain reasons cause those could be your down fall.
"Kakashi is different than what you thought."
"How so?"
"He.he isn't the same and that's why your mad. You say Kakashi never stay around commitment but has he ever had one? Maybe he never found the right person but then he decided to go with me. Why? I don't know. But I do know that if you had seen Kakashi so open to relationships earlier you would have made a move."
I dropped Iruka to the floor and let him sit there, while I absorbed his words. Was he right? Did I just assume Kakashi and me would always be together because he never seemed to care for anything else? If that's the case then maybe its not that I'm in love; it's more that I don't want to lose what I am used to.
"You know what Iruka? Who gives a crap what you think." With that I kicked him across the room. I hated it when people messed with my head.
Yes there was a chance that I wasn't in love with Kakashi but the fact that I liked him still remained. I started to like him when he warmed up to commitment only to see he only warmed up to it because of Iruka.
"I would rather fight for what I want now then be left behind." I heard Iruka get up from where I had kicked him.
"Then we are in the same boat." With that our fight continued.

Sasuke's POV
I was surprised to see Kakashi and Naruto at my door in kimonos but then again this had been a weird month so far. Naruto explained to me that [1st] We were going on a kind of double date with Iruka and Kakashi at the carnival, [2nd] Iruka had been missing and we need to find him first, and [3rd] I had to wear a kimono no matter what I said.
I grabbed the only kimono I had since I never dressed up for things I didn't see why I should own more than one. It was white with red and black markings at the bottom. I always heard that I looked good in those colors when I was kid so that was probably why I bought the thing.
I got dressed quickly seeing Kakashi start to wonder around my apartment. I hated having people over so I grabbed my sandals and pushed him and Naruto out the door.
"So where are you going first?" My expressionless face stared at our sensei.
"I believe Gai would know where he is." Kakashi stared back at me. If it wasn't for Naruto tripping into a pile of dirt and making Kakashi laugh we would have gotten into a staring contest.
"MY KIMONO!" Naruto dusted himself off quickly and took his sandals off. "I'm not used to wearing these so I'll be barefoot until we make it to the carnival." Naruto gave us a big fox grin and we headed towards Gai's place.
Kakashi was the only one who knew the way and decided it was a one person job to ask a question so he let me a Naruto wait in front of the carnival for them. Naruto was upset at first but before he pouted I grabbed his hand a started heading towards the carnival.
"We should let Kakashi-sensei find Iruka-sensei. He would be quicker by himself." I said without looking back at the person I was dragging. If I had I would have blushed to see how his face was a light pink when he noticed I never let go of his hand.
The carnival wouldn't open till it got darker outside so I found a bench we could sit on.
"Sasuke?"
"Hm?"
"I was wonderi." I decided to interrupt Naruto by placing my jacket I had brought along on both of us. He smiled as if I had answered his question and scooted closer to me.
I had never actually 'cuddled', if you call it that, with Naruto. I had given him a hug once and kissed him quite a few times but nothing really fluffy. I wrapped my arms around Naruto and we sat there for a few minutes.
"SASSSSSUUUUUUUUKE!" My ears began to ring as I looked over to see not only Sakura but also Ino running my way.
I looked down to see Naruto had fallen asleep. I couldn't wake him up now! He looked so peaceful lying in my arms but I knew Sakura and Ino would be trouble. Maybe I should.no but then I should.No! I guess the girls would find out sooner or later but I wanted Naruto to have a moment's peace.
I glared at the girls who stopped suddenly and got quiet.
"Shh." I whispered.
Sakura saw that I was holding someone and her face seemed to turn pale. She knew I didn't feel the same for her but yet I still felt bad. I looked over at Ino whose expression gave me a sickening feeling. She looked mad.
"WHOSE THE BLOND TRAMP IN YOUR LAP SASUKE-KUN?" she grabbed my jacket, "WAKE YOU.YOU!"
Naruto slowly opened his eyes and jumped up when he saw Ino and Sakura's faces. They were either going to kill him or barf. I grabbed Naruto's hand and pulled him next to me but kept my emotions covered.
"Can I have my jacket back, Ino?" She was startled but handed it to me then grabbed Sakura as they bowed and ran off.
"Why did they bow?" Naruto looked over at me.
"I don't know." I looked over at Naruto who leaned over and kissed me. He always had a way of doing things and they were always at the wrong moments. But everything he did felt right.
"Let's go buy some candy for Iruka and Kakashi! We can keep a watch on the entrance form the store so we will know if they come back yet." Naruto pulled me up from the bench almost causing me to fall over.
I just smirked at him as I was dragged to the store.
(\/)*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*\/\/*(\/)
Kakashi glared at the walls that guarded Gai's house from the outside world. He had come here so many times but this time he felt different. He didn't know what he would do if Iruka wasn't there. He prayed that maybe Iruka and Gai had lost time and were just having a few laughs.
The doors squeaked as the opened slowly and a gust of wind blew into Kakashi's face. His eye hurt since it was the only part of him not covered. He walked past tons of training areas and a few fountains. Gai owned a nice piece of land for being a ninja but he gained it all from his forefathers who helped found the Hidden Leaf Village.
The house looked more like a Temple for old priests or sacrificials.
"Gai?" Kakashi yelled at the house.
Nothing.
"GAI!"
Nothing.
"GGGAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!"
Still nothing.
Kakashi started to feel a bad chill and walked into the house. It appeared as if a battle had taken place here but yet it had ended quickly. Kakashi turned into the next room to see Iruka's pack lying there. The only reason he knew it was Iruka's was from Naruto sowing a dolphin on it not to long ago.
Kakashi grabbed the pack and continued down the house. He found a bland room with only a bed in it having a few kunai marks on the wall but that was it.
BAM!
Kakashi jumped as he heard a crash coming form outside. It was from the backyard. He quickly vanished towards that direction.
