Summary: When a member of the Sand Sibling's team starts constantly harassing one of her own, Kurenai decides to try and talk out the problem in a calm manner with their sensei Baki. However she soon realizes that he has something else in store for her. Weird couplings but I'll make em' believable.
The majority of the day I tried to think of a reasonable way to approach Baki while training deep in the forest. I knew very little about him except he was deceitful and liked getting his way.
(We're dealing with the number one man of the year aren't we…?) No sarcasm, I must keep a straight mind. I looked up at the sky; it was getting much darker now, too dark to train. He should be in his quarters by now, and I know where he's staying…this should be over quickly.
I had an uneasy feeling in my stomach but shook it off.
(I shouldn't listen to rumors….) Even if he goes back on his word, he won't be here forever.
I nod to myself and began my trek to his hotel.
I was surprised when I heard where he was staying; it was a rather small unknown place, very close to my own residence and the residence of my students.
(But it's not to say he's trying to pull something….)
I muttered at myself; I couldn't release myself from the annoying mind set that there was another attack, or some type of trick involved in he and his team being here.
I paused and looked up at the hotel and took in a deep breath before proceeding to go inside.
"Hmm, well, well, you're rather prettied up to see me; if I'd known it was such an occasion I too would've dressed up."
I was startled when the voice came from behind me, but I turned and saw no one. When I turned back to the hotel, however, Baki was standing, arms crossed in front of me. His expression was solemn, almost brooding; it never even hinted that he'd made any sort of flirtatious remark.
"Oh…er… Baki, since you seem to know I'm here to see you, let me get to the point. We need to talk about the behavior of your students."
"What's wrong with it?"
I frowned, his voice told me he was mocking me and that this might be a little more difficult to proceed with my plan.
(No matter, I'm sure he's reasonable)
"Well, its not all of them, it's just one; Kankuro."
"…."
"…He's been harassing one of my students without reason and I just wanted to ask you to talk to him about it."
"For what? He's not my kid."
I was shocked; of COURSE he was his child! When you are a sensei that's the responsibility you take upon yourself! Especially a sensei with a team!
"He is your child as long as you're his sensei, you are obligated to discipline him as well…"
"I have better things to do with my time." He turned around and walked away from me. I wondered silently why he was walking away from his hotel but ignored it and snarled, rushing to walk next to him.
(I will NOT give up so easily!)
"Your student is in breach of our treaty! Surely that must be important to you…"
"Correction, the treaty refers to large parties….as in, if a large group of people seem to be threatening to the Hokage's well being or the majority of the people from that Hokage's village, then it breaks the law. Kankuro is just a bully."
"So do something about it! Bullying is not part of the criteria you're supposed to be teaching!"
"What would you know, princess? The Sand Village's teachings might just be a little different from the Leaf's."
"You can't teach your children to push around those weaker than themselves! What kind of skills are you trying to teach them!" (He can't be serious! He's just messing with my head, but why is he being such a child!) Don't lose composure, you're better than this, better than he is.
"So you admit you're student is weaker?"
"No."
"You want them to fight? We can test that…"
"They are not animals! We don't just throw them into stupid battles to see whose is stronger! Where's your dignity for your students?"
"Hnn, dignity?"
"Love? Care? Sense to watch over them? To teach them the right things?"
"That's a load of bullshit, I can't believe I'm even having this conversation with you; we teach survival skills, I don't know what you think you've been teaching…"
I…cant believe I'm hearing this….(well its true not all sensei's love their team as much as I or some other's may, but you still have to teach them accordingly or you'll lose your job!)
"How are you qualified for your job?" my anger was building with every look or comment he made; it was almost as if he cared absolutely nothing about his team, which defeated he entire purpose for him being in the position he was…
"I'm plenty qualified."
"I don't want us to fight like children! I don't care about how useless you are; I just want you to make your student leave mine alone!" (Even if everything else is true….)
"Let them deal with it, you can't protect them forever."
I blinked and frowned as my heart stung slightly; that's true, and I do try to let them handle thing's on their own, but sometimes….sometimes they just need help….people in general will always need help…
(He's not responding, talking to him is pointless…)
"You're a waste of time, I just hope you're put in you're place soon." I muttered, slowing down to go back to my home. I suddenly felt him spin around and instinctively grabbed my kunai, stabbing it at his throat as he pushed me against a wall to the side, a kunai of his own right under my breasts.
"You really have a lot to say don't you?"
"…!"
He grabbed my face and I twitched slightly, but kept my hand ready to defend myself.
"You don't look like someone who does anything BUT worry, am I right?"
I didn't answer, only bringing my kunai closer to his neck to show him I was serious. He chuckled darkly down at me and yanked my head to the side, leaning down giving my cheek a long lick.
(AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH! DEAR GOD WHAT IS HE DOING!)
"You need to clam down or I'm gonna get the best of you." He laughed, shoving me off to the side. I stumbled to gain my balance and my thoughts, but as soon as I had enough sense to pull out more kunai's, he was gone.
(Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!)
I blushed instantly, trying to shake off my surprise.
(What the hell was THAT!)
Vampire Toy: Boom, that's kinda scary isn't it? (giggles insanely) ahem, yes, bad idea Kurenai love, because now he's interested in you XP hahah, well tell em what you think; I know this chapter really sucked but its early, gimme a break…
