Chapter 21: Love is Not Only A Noun
Three Years Earlier
Kakashi walked around with his hands in his pocket as he was passing through the village. Might Gai was talking to him, but he was ignoring him for the time being. He had a lot to talk to about, he just got released from Danzo's section of ANBU and pledged his life to the Third Hokage.
Might Gai walked alongside him talking about the village affairs and some other nonsense very loudly. He gave an occasional nod but continued walking. "And can you believe it, the entire Uchiha Clan Murdered!", exclaimed Gai. "By Itachi no less. As my good ol' dad always said, gotta watch the quiet ones". Kakashi stopped in his tracks as he was just hearing Gai for the first time.
"What", he said as his unmasked eye glanced towards him.
"Didn't you hear what-
"Repeat what you just said", said Kakashi harshly as he grabbed Gai by the collar. Kakashi noticed the harshness of his tone, but then soon released him. "I'm sorry", Kakashi retreated slightly in shame. He didn't know what came over him.
"It's nothing to be sorry about, he was under you right?", Gai asked. Kakashi looked away from Gai, he didn't need his concern.
"Itachi was normal, he wouldn't do that", Kakashi said in agitation. "He had everything a kid could ask for-
"Kakashi are you okay?" Might Gai asked. Kakashi felt himself about to lose control, but then snapped back as he didn't want to make a public scene. So he put on a facade.
"Well, I guess he snapped under pressure", Kakashi said calmly in a sarcastic tone. Kakashi could feel his heart beating fast as an unknown wave of anxiety was starting to crash into him He put his hand behind his head and started walking in the direction of the cemetery.
"That's more than snapping-hey wait", said Gai but before he knew it Kakashi was about to retreat but, Gai was faster and grabbed his arm. "I almost had to break a seal to catch you", Gai's face went from playful to serious concern.
"Let Go of me", said Kakashi as he grabbed his arm back. His wrist was hurting from the sudden grab of Gai. He forgot how strong he had gotten, but his speed caught him off guard. When did he get so fast? Gai stared at Kakashi for what seemed like forever, but it was only moments.
"Were you by chance living vicariously through him", Gai raised an eyebrow after his question. Kakashi didn't move, he didn't want to give anything away to his self-proclaimed rival. He already let himself slip around him once when his father died, which he wasn't going to do again.
"Don't be foolish", Kakashi scoffed. He started walking away. But Gai stopped him. Gai noticed before how Kakashi would watch the new prodigy while they were out in the town. It made sense, as Kakashi was a prodigy during their generation,Even though a rival,Gai was concerned about Kakashi's increased self-isolatation. Especially since his father died. Gai recognized quickly that Itachi had the childhood, that Kakashi wanted. Itachi had a mother, a father, an entire family in the Alpha ranks of a clan. Now, they were all slaughtered.
"Kakashi he chose his path, there was nothing you could do to stop it, he must live with his consequences, and you must live your life", Gai said firmly. Kakashi noticed the undertone in his statement, he didn't like it, it was like a grandfather cautioning their grandchild. However, something inside appreciated it, but it didn't settle him. Gai turned Kakashi around and put both his hands on his shoulder. "Anyone that kills their own mother is a monster, you are not one Kakashi, you hear me, you are a good Shinobi", Gai affirmed.
"You don't know me", Kakashi said fiercely, but something about saying it to Gai in a crude way made it seem damaging.
"I do know that you would never abandon the ones you love", Gai rebuffed.
Kakashi stared at him with his one unmasked eye. Both were silent for some awkward moments. "Thanks for the compliment", Kakashi said as he was walking away.
Late that night Kakashi went to visit Sasuke secretly. Sasuke was in a coma and had not woken up since the incident. He thought back to one of the last conversations he had with Itachi; it was about his brother That's all he talked about to him. He seemed happy and very enthusiastic about how Sasuke was doing. The more he thought about it, the more it didn't make sense. He had to find answers.
After discussing with the Hokage to get some time off from his duties in the village, Kakashi summoned his canines to track Itachi. According to reports, his trail went cold right after the massacre, but he had trained his hounds well and knew it would be a matter of minutes before one of them picked up on an iota of a trace.
The three days seemed like a blur but he found him at a brothel, disguised with a new appearance. Itachi could fool a normal person with his formidable genjutsu, but Kakashi's sense of smell didn't lie. He was there at the bar staring down at the drink in front of him. He seemed unhinged, and there was no way he could confront him.
Kakashi went behind a tree and took off his mask, and put on a wig. He also put on green contacts to cover his eyes. Luckily, he sensed that Itachi did not have his Sharingan activated which made sense if he wanted to keep a low profile. For Kakashi, it made it all easier to be in disguise and discreet.
When he entered the establishment it surprised him that Tsunade and Jiraya were there as well. Jiraya handed him a note with a filled envelope, and Tsunade gave what looked like medication, and then they left. He watched them leave with Jiraya's hand in the middle of Tsunade's back. He noted there was something there but ignored it as he observed Itachi from afar.
Itachi went up the stairs to his room and Kakashi followed behind stealthy, or so he thought as he was pulled into Itachi's room and Kakashi's kunai clashed with Itachi's. Kakashi looked away trying not to gaze into his eyes knowing if he did he would be caught in his genjutsu. Itachi used that split second to drop his kunai in his other hand to slash at Kakashi, but it was blocked by Kakashi's forearm.
Kakashi's sleeve started to stain red. The sting from the deep cut was starting to register in his mind. "I'm not here to kill you", he said after a loud painful groan escaped his lips.
"Kakashi-senpai?", Itachi was shocked to see his face but quickly recovered. He took the wig off Kakashi to reveal the familiar silver hair. Itachi stared at the cut on his cheek and stared at it intensely before recovering. "Why are you here", he demanded. His head started to form sweat beads, and Kakashi was starting to take notice.
"Still using honorfics?", Kakashi questioned
"Forget that you saw me", Itachi seemed uncomfortable as he retreated from Kakashi. Kakashi furrowed his brow in confusion. A man that just slaughtered almost his entire family was letting him go? Something didn't make sense. This wasn't the pattern of a stone-cold killer.
"Itachi why did you do it?", Itachi looked like he was in pain and grabbed his head.
"Kakashi leave, please", he pleaded. Itachi went down to his knees and silently wept. Kakashi only noticed because of the smell of salt that came through the air. "I killed them", Itachi said as his hands went to his face. "I killed them all", he said in a desperate panic. Kakashi held Itachi down as he scrambled away.
"Itachi tell me", he demanded. Itachi's body suddenly went stiff and his eyes both changed into an unrecognizable Sharingan and Kakashi avoided his gaze just in time.
"You dare challenge your alpha?", Kakashi noticed the voice change, it was deeper and more sinister. Without thinking, Kakashi retreated from him as if something told him to do so in his blood. His heart started to pump in fear, it was then he noticed that he was starting to get aroused.
Kakashi remembered that the Hatake were descendent from a small clan that aided the Uchiha and were granted special clan status under the Second Hokage. But his father still remained under the wing of the Uchiha clan, even with his notoriety. Did that mean he was Itachi's Beta? From what he heard the Clan hierarchy system was almost dead, no one he knew actually participated in this type of loyalty anymore, not since the last Great Ninja War. Except for the Hyuga clan. They redesigned it to fit the needs of their clan. Nevertheless, it was like instinct he knew what to do. He knew that the bond that Itachi intended to create would have deeper consequences for their relationships. However, he wasn't stupid, there wouldn't be love between the two. Maybe a deep friendship, eventually, but this felt like it was strictly business and he was so thirsty for any interaction that he was okay with this outcome. Whatever Itachi needed he would do. That was the essence of being a Beta.
Kakashi raised his hands as a sign of submissiveness. "Itachi, I'm in no way challenging you-
"Don't say that name", Itachi held him by the throat and Kakashi's eyes met with the Sharingan. After a few moments, Kakashi noticed that he didn't put him into a genjutsu so he continued the conversation.
"What do you want to be called", he said as calmly as he could with Itachi's hand around his throat. "Izumi called me Katsuo, she said I always showed up when she needed me the most", he whispered. "But he killed her, locked her in a genjutsu so I wouldn't save her, but I killed everyone else because he never had the stomach for murder or bloodshed. He made a choice and I executed it. Hell, it was me who initiated fucking with Izumi, because he is so reserved."
Kakashi recognized that he was dealing with a different identity within Itachi. "Katsuo", Kakashi said gently "Why are you telling me this. And what choice are you talking about? Why did you keep Sasuke alive and leave him in the village-"
"Shh", Itachi/Katsuo slid his hands down to Kakashi's nether regions and started to massage his crotch "Is that really why you came here?" Kakashi retreated from the touch that set his skin on fire.
"Yes, I did", Kakashi said firmly pushing him away. "I know you wouldn't just kill people just to test your power", Kakashi stated.
"I knew you watched us, even when I was with Izumi, like an obsession", Katsuo stalked towards him and Kakashi stepped back until his back was to the door.
"But How?", Kakashi questioned. Even when he observed him it was from afar and he hid his chakra signature to even the most skilled shinobi.
"The Sharingan I have obtained see's all even your inner desires", Itachi purred in his ear."That's impossible", Kakashi said continuing to push him away.
Kakashi regained control of the initial shock. "I put you in a genjutsu that night, it was so easy, you are so lonely, that you seemed happy I broke into your home, but I had to keep you out of the way or I knew I wouldn't be able to go through with it. So I made it look like you went on one of your binges and you had a dream-filled night of what you wanted to see." Katsuo explained.
Kakashi snapped and tackled Katsuo and started to punch him "How dare you!", he yelled.
"That's it Kakashi get angry, you've been wanting to do that for years, how does it feel not being Kohnoha's bitch all the time", Katsuo laughed. Kakashi started to choke him but let go, as it wasn't his intent in the first place to kill him. He had to remember through this psychotic ride that this version of Itachi was just taunting him. "What made you angry the part where I discovered where you were an alcoholic or being alone?", Kakashi clenched his fist avoiding eye contact with Katsuo. Katsuo seemed to notice that the taunts wouldn't work on Kakashi.
"I deceived even Ibiki's measures, how did you know?"
"That's not important" he licked his ear and Kakashi released a moan. "What is important is that we will be bonded just like our ancestors were, but first I have to explain some things to you"
A moan escaped Kakashi as Katsuo's hand went inside his pants and started rubbing his cock. "Didn't take you as going commando Kakashi". Kakashi started to form lightning in his hand but Katsuo grabbed his balls and squeezed. Kakashi groaned in pain and went down to his knees. "I literally have you by the balls, Kakashi don't test me again", Katsuo said dangerously. A stroke of fear ran down his spine.
"Just tell me what you want to tell me ", Kakashi mumbled. Katsuo resumed stroking Kakashi. Kakashi refused to give him the satisfaction of knowing how good it felt, so he bit his lip to hold back the moans. Every movement that his hand made was like sweet agonizing torture, the more Kakashi held back the more intense feeling he had in the pit of his nether regions. After a few minutes, his teeth bit through his bottom lip and drew blood. As the tiny streak of blood ran down his face, Katsuo wiped his finger across it and licked it in ecstasy. Pre-cum started to drip into Itachi's hand and he used it for further lubrication.
"Itachi had a simple plan- kill the Uchiha for their attempt at a coup, leave Sasuke behind so he could kill us, and then the Uchiha name would be restored. That was Danzo's plan. He is making a play for Hokage, and I can't have the peace that I sacrificed my family for, replaced by a war-monger to take over Konoha." Katsuo kept stroking his shaft, and Kakashi couldn't help the moans and grunts that escaped him. "You should think about becoming Hokage", Katsuo breathed in his ear.
"That's not something, oh shit", Kakashi's body sputtered as an intense sensation radiated from him and his abdomen tightened. "I'm about to cum", Kakashi's cock twitched as his sperm ejaculated and soiled his pants. Kakashi watched as the alter of Itachi licked the white clear liquid off his hand.
"That was quick Kakashi, so I take it that you've never been with someone", Kakashi couldn't deny that fact. This version of Itachi was right in many ways. He was very alone, didn't bother to actually court anyone after the love of his life died, and never thought he would be with a man either. Nevertheless, he had silently longed for any type of connection. In many ways, Itachi and he understood each other.
The room filled with Kakashi's loud breathing as the pleasure was dissipating from his body. "If you are trying to persuade me, sexually assaulting and shaming me is not the way to do it", Kakashi grumbled in a snarky manner.
"I am on borrowed time", he stated as he bit Kakashi's neck lightly and bent Kakashi over. "I promise I will be gentle unlike my assailant", Kakashi blinked a couple of times at the revelation. Itachi was raped? "You wanted me from the beginning, this bond I'm creating will protect you and make you the alpha you will eventually become, plus I've seen you in action if you didn't want this, one of us would have been dead."
Katsuo was right. If Kakashi truly felt threatened, he would have immediately used his Chidori. "None of this makes sense, everyone thinks you are psycho, that you are a menace to society, but you were under me for years, you followed orders exactly and never deviated from the plan unless strictly necessary. Tell me exactly what's going on", demanded Kakashi.
Katsuo smirked at Kakashi. "It seems that eye is not wasted on you", he said complimenting Kakashi's intelligence. "You already knew that Konoha was behind the Uchiha massacre, just like Danzo was behind your Father's murder"
Kakashi pushed him away more forcefully at the mention of his father. "My father committed suicide."
"I have access now to vital information from Danzo, I'm not passive like Itachi. I'm his rage, I'm his desire", said Katsuo.
"Get to the part of my father", Kakashi demanded.
"Danzo told me everything, it's why I made the deal to keep Sasuke alive, Your father's failure in that mission was intentional, he knew the shame would bring your father to his suicide, especially after your mother died with your sister", Itachi answered
"How did you know that?", tears started to stream down his eyes. Practically no one knew about his mother. Only few people knew that she died in childbirth. His father was a private man people barely remembered that he was married.
"I followed you as well", Itachi smirked and grabbed Kakashi's chin and forced his lips on his. He deepened the kiss until Kakashi responded and then came up for air. "I looked at your record to make sure you could help carry on The Uchiha name, and so did Itachi. We chose you for the purpose of the protection of Sasuke and our offspring if we should have them. The decision was made when we noticed how you treat the Uzumaki going so far as to kill a very powerful businessman from raping Naruto, you are his Godfather anyway since Jiraya is mainly absent from his life per Kage's orders"
"Bullshit, you only want me for my Sharingan, don't tell me because I'm a good person, because I'm not, did you see what I did in ANBU, what I'm still doing", he said in silent fury. It took everything not to raise his voice. "Do you have any idea how messed up I am, and you are putting this responsibility on me", Kakashi scoffed.
"Your Sharingan is only part of the equation", he purred in his ear. "By the way, Itachi can't know the full plan when I disclose it to you, I command this of you". Itachi grabbed something out of the drawer next to him while still holding Kakashi. Kakashi recognized it as lube and Katsuo smirked.
"What if I say no", Kakashi asked.
"You won't, now get on your knees", Kakashi complied and waited for the intrusion. He had no idea what to expect, as Itachi pointed out he didn't have any experience in sexual matters. The only knowledge he had were from books(which were mainly heterosexual relationships) and the sexual education training that was required yearly by Konoha.
Kakashi was relieved when he felt Itachi teasing his entrance with his lubed finger. "Where did he learn these things", Kakashi asked himself as small pulses of pleasure pulsed through him. It was then that he felt one finger enter him. It felt awkward, until he entered a second finger in which it became painful. That was until he felt a jolt of pleasure shot through him. Katsuo grinned as he felt a pleasurable sigh from Kakashi.
He retracted his fingers and wiped the juices on Kakashi's buttocks. He then positioned himself at his entrance and slowly went in. Katsuo hovered over Kakashi and grabbed his neck slightly. He pumped into slowly until he finally got to an angle and rhythm where Kakashi was screaming loudly from pleasure.
"Before you cum Kakashi, I need you to give me your body, soul and loyalty", Katsuo said licking his throat. Kakashi stopped bucking his hips at that statement.
"Let me see your face, I know exactly what you want and I won't go through with it without seeing your face", Kakashi panted.
"I can grant this one request", Katsuo withdrew himself and Kakashi flipped on his back. Katsuo grabbed his hips roughly and rentered quickly and quickend his paced and both their moans got louder and louder. "I Itachi Uchiha vow that you, Kakashi Hatake will feel no rain, for I will be your shelter, you will feel no cold, for I will be fire to bring you warmth. That you will never be no lonely for I will be your companion." Itachi/Katsuo hissed in pain as he felt a burning sensation around his shoulder as if he was being branded.
It didn't escape Kakashi that Katsuo had chosen Itachi's name. It was a sign to him that Itachi was the one mainly in control of himself and not the other way around, which was a total relief to Kakashi. This made Kakashi more comfortable to give himself to Itachi and was willing to help in any way possible. "I Kakashi Hatake vow that you, Itachi will feel no rain, for I will be your shelter, you will feel no cold, for I will be fire to bring you warmth. That you will never be no lonely for I will be your companion." Kakashi also felt a silmilar burning sensation but this time on his left outer thigh. He glanced at it and it bore the Uchiha's name along with ancient markings that circled his thigh, with the other side with the Uchiha fan emblem.
Itachi then got a nearby Kunai and cut his hand but something that felt like electricity sparked through both of them. "We can't finish the bond", Kakashi panted. "There's another that will complete us", Kakashi panted as he started to move his hand along his cock. A hint of jealously rang through his voice.
"What we have is good for now, and who knows we may never find the girl, and I'm satisfied with just us", Katsuo said comforting him. As he started to pump harder as he was close to the edge. "You are more than enough for me",
"Say it again", Kakashi demanded as he felt himself starting to go over the edge.
"You are more than enough for me", Katsuo growled in his ear. "You think Itachi didn't like you following him", a strained moan guttled through his throat as he was super close. "I'll give you a hint, Itachi has wanted you for a long time as well". Katsuo smacked Kakashi's hand away from his cock and started to move his hand along his shaft as he was hitting his prostate, wanting to give him the most pleasure possible as he himself was starting to cum.
They both came and Katsuo collaposed on Kakashi. Pants filled the air and Kakashi pondered what just happened. He ran his hand through his white hair and waited for the tingling sensation to die down through his body. His body felt great, but he never wanted to experience Katsuo again. There was something wild about this encounter. Probably next time, it won't be as unpredictable and he could adjust.
Kakashi heard a slight snore from the body on top of him. He laughed silently at the situation and decided to put Itachi in bed and clean himself and join him.
Itachi woke up in the following day with a chill on his skin. He remembered drinking and coming up the stairs but for the rest of the night, he didn't remember. Then, he noticed that there was a warm body that he didn't recognize and noticed that he was naked. He got his kunai ready to pounce on the unidentified man, but Kakashi woke up and grabbed his hand.
"Itachi it's me, I'm not here to hurt you"
"Kakashi-senpai?"
"We are definitely past any formalities". Itachi remembered that he was naked and got out of the bed to put on his clothes.
"What?", for once Itachi did not know where to begin, but he knew that he had sex with Kakashi and more importantly he knew that he was bonded to Kakashi, he could feel their chakra intertwining.
Kakashi could start to sense Itachi's emotions. He didn't say anything and he had the same stern tire look he always had. Being bonded to him was like seeing a deeper side of him, he could even feel Katsuo, who silently reigned within him.
"I'm sorry Kakashi, I did something-"
"I don't regret it, you don't have to bear your burden alone", stated Kakashi simply. "And I finally have a purpose", Itachi nodded. Kakashi walked toward him and kissed his shoulder. Itachi breathed in deeply. "Why don't we both relax." Kakashi shifted himself Infront of Itachi and bent down to his knees and brought down Itachi's pants with him. "Why don't let me take the lead this time" Itachi closed his eyes as Kakashi made his body radiate with pleasure.
Present
Kakashi snapped out of his thoughts when he heard a scream in the distance. He sniffed the air and could smell Itachi's and Soraya's scent in the distance. He knew it was Soraya's scream. He then picked up on a scent coming towards him and threw a shuriken in the direction. He heard someone drop towards the ground and a few more coming towards him. He tried to summon a clone, but when one didn't appear, he knew that his ninjutsu was nullified.
"Well Gai, seems like your training is going to come in handy,'' he said to himself.
"The great Copy Ninja!", a woman said. "He will be happy that we caught such a fine man"
"Lady, not interested", said Kakashi rejecting her flirtation. She chuckled as she walked toward them.
"Your strength has even reached our corner of the Earth, you would be a great body guard, and someone to warm my bed, why don't you surrender and come with us"
"Sorry taken", Kakashi was suddenly behind her and dived a weaponized needle in her neck. The woman had fear in her eyes as she felt some of her body parts start to become paralyzed.
"I see you like it rough", she coughed out. She could feel the effects of the poison go through her body.
"Not always", Kakashi replied. "I prefer gentler methods, but time is of the essence" Kakashi dodged an arrow flying his way. "Call your friends off"
"I can't do that, they will die for this contract that is our way even if every one of us dies", she chuckled darkly getting in a defensive technique.
"What's the contract, I may make a better offer", Kakashi countered.
The woman felt her body start to go limp, she could no longer fight. "There is no way you can out beat Hanzo's wealth and status." Kakashi tightened his grip on her throat and sunk the needle deeper. He didn't need to say anything, she knew he wanted answers. "Hanzo wants the girl as a sex slave for us"
"Why not kill her?", he asked.
"He wants to torture his wife knowing that the girl is still alive, but has a fate worst than death"
Kakashi registered what she was saying in her mind. "I'm sorry but I can't let that happen", he snapped her neck and was suddenly in the trees next to the man who shot the arrow. He banged his head against the tree instantly killing him. There were three more coming towards him. He could smell them.
He unsheathed his sword waiting for them to attack, however, he felt his legs suddenly cramp. He collapsed with one knee on the ground from the pain. Thinking that he was subdued they came to collect him, but Kakashi twisted his upper body and slashed two of them. Almost immediatel his legs felt free and he quickly stood. The person left alive scooted back to the tree in fear.
All the person saw was Kakashi's masked figure. Kakashi had blood in his hair and his katana at his throat. "Now, how many are left", the person refused to answer the question. Kakashi pressed his Katana at the person's throat.
"There are 26 of us, but 10 were already killed when I got here"
"All for one girl, Hanzo must have paid you a handsome amount of money", Kakashi contemplated this information before he resumed. "What else was in the contract, why bring so many people for one girl?", he asked.
"He wanted Itachi dead, and if the Rui unlocked her power, we could subdue her if needed."
"She's already unlocked it", said Kakashi
The man shook his head. "She has awakened, but she is very much asleep, her power will not be fully awakened until her first child is born, but she would have made us great profit as a substitute, especially as a virgin."
Kakashi killed the man with a slash across the throat. Something in him was angry.
"ITACHI STOP!", Kakashi's sensitive ears perked in the direction of Soraya's cry. Without thinking he rushed towards her. He was there in a matter of seconds watching the scene unfold between Itachi, no Katsuo, and Soraya. He could tell through the black marks of his Sharingan.
Itachi was covered in blood. His hand was dripping with a heavy layer of blood as it retracted from a man's chest. The heart of the man was crushed in front of the shocked man's face as he fell to the ground. It was then Kakashi saw the bodies spread across the terrain.
A flashback of a battle crossed his mind. His eyes went wide and he could feel his heartbeat drum faster and faster. Images of a brown-haired girl flashed across his face. A big gapping hole was in her chest followed by burns on the edges of the hole. "Rin", Kakashi whispered. His hand went to his head as he went to his knees and silently cried. "Rin, no", he whispered to himself. "I could have saved you", he cried as the traumatic memory kept replaying in his mind.
Meanwhile, Soraya watched as Itachi retracted his hand from the man's chest. In his hand was the man's heart still pumping. Soraya pressed her back in more of fear when Itachi crushed it, satisfied with his work. The blood was gushing down his hand and wicked smile appeared on his face. His features turned into a scowl as the intense glare flowed in her direction.
"You disobeyed me again", he said in low voice.
"Disobey?", she managed to say. "I'm not some servant you can command", she retorted in defense. Itachi angrily got in her face, the red eyes she was accustomed to seeing were different. Even when Itachi had his Sharingan, there was still gentleness in his eyes. Right now, there was anger and darkness.
Soraya's ears perked up, in the distance she could hear someone silently sobbing. When she tapped into their emotions, there was a paralyzing fear. But she sensed it was someone familiar. The woman was well out of the area, so she questioned who could it be. Nevertheless, she had to focus on herself, she felt that she was in danger in the presence of Itachi. Well not exactly, she felt safe and protected at the same time, but she could tell whatever was going through Itachi's mind wasn't going to be pleasant for her.
"But I am your alpha", he said darkly his voice giving her a warning. Soraya looked at him in confusion. "How the fuck am I supposed to protect you when you foolishly continue to put your life in danger. Then you make a deal with Orochimaru after I explicitly told you not to"
"I had no choice", she retorted as walked backward creating some distance.
"Tell me, what was so drastic that you made a deal with that snake", he tilted his head waiting for an answer. Soraya looked at the shirtless blood-stained Itachi and turned her head away. The strong iron smell hit her nostrils and she swallowed the bile that was trying to escape her throat. He continued to slowly stalk to her, like a wolf hunting it's prey. She hated that she couldn't use any Chakra to defend herself against him, but she was willing to fight him if he got too close.
Soraya grabbed her bracelet of the ground and it turned into a katana. "Itachi, stay back", she deepened her voice trying to sound intimidating. "Itachi, I mean it"
"You should know sometimes I hate that name". He slowly stalked toward her. A strange feeling started to go through her. Some sort of attraction that she couldn't put her finger on. Similar to the feeling of when he complimented her smile. He was at the edge of the katana beckoning her to attack him, which he knew she would not. Soraya closed her eyes and turned away knowing she could never attack him. She felt him grab the blade of katana and placed it on his shoulder near his neck. It was then Soraya noticed all the muscles he truly had and a foreign warm ache started to form in between her legs.
"Do it", he taunted. Soraya pressed the blade on his neck next to the vein her mother taught her would instantly kill anyone.
"You went too far Itachi", she screamed. Angry tears started to form in her eyes. The blade went back to it's bracelet form and she slapped him. His head went in the direction of the slap. Soraya was shocked at her reaction but held firm the glare she had.
Itachi's face slowly looked back at her form, and Soraya could tell he was not happy. He matched her glare. "Your body betrays you". Itachi's hand touched her chest, where both of them could feel the fast beating thump of her heart. "Sometimes it's just best to submit", he said darkly. He grabbed both of her hands roughly and placed them above her head and kissed her gently. Nevertheless, his other hand found her throat and squeezed slightly.
Soraya's body became inflamed as his lips touched hers. But she could feel something wasn't right about this. His mannerisms were different, the way he tore through the Janjira was intentionally bloody and she couldn't shake the feeling something was out of place. She could still feel the stickiness of the shed blood on the hand around her throat. Realizing that she had another person's blood on her, started to trigger a panic attack. She tried pushing him off. She needed to get away. She could feel her body start to shake and the tears stinging her eyes. It was the panic attacks she desperately tried to hide from everyone. "Itachi please get off of me", she pleaded.
"Normally, that will work but you seem to continuously not understand the gravity of situations." He effortlessly threw her to the ground. "I'm going to have to punish you". He pushed her to the ground and Soraya struggled to get up. It was all too much for her. She didn't know what was going on with Itachi. Her Itachi didn't murder for pleasure, he didn't mutilate bodies, he never tortured. More importantly, he never gave her the inkling that he would ever harm her. She was terrified. She used her hips to get him off balance. Instinct took over and her legs moved before she could even think.
Soraya was running. Her feet pounded the ground harder than she ever had before. She knew that she had to create as much distance as possible from heart was pumping thunderously in her ears. Soraya felt like she ran for miles when she ran into something hard, and the wind got knocked out of her. She didn't have to look up to know it was Itachi. She could feel her heart beating fast trying to recover from the sprint she had just did. She looked down avoiding his gaze.
"Did you have your fun", Itachi bent down at eye level. Something about his condescending attitude pissed her off and she slapped him again.
"This isn't a game", it didn't even phase him, but she could tell that she definitely stirred the beast. She crawled backward. But he grabbed her and slammed his lips on her again. He got on top of her and straddled her so she wouldn't get away.
"My sentiment's exactly", the low baritone in his voice made her very afraid and made her realize for the second time that she was really in a dangerous situation.
Kakashi snapped out of his traumatic trance after hearing Soraya's continuous pleas. He looked in front of him and noticed they were not there anymore. He sniffed and rushed in their direction.
"Why don't you submit to me", he purred in her ear. He traced a line down to her collarbone down to the center of her breast that was still forming. He smiled when he saw her nipples harden in anticipation. Soraya was confused at his wording and the things that were happening to her body. He kissed the juncture of her neck and collarbone and she unconsciously closed her eyes in bliss at the sensation. "It will be less painful if you do", he bit down on her neck to prove a point and licked the blood that escaped from his inflicted wound. She winced in pain and pleasure at the deed.
"I don't understand", she said to Itachi. Soraya could feel a panic attack coming on and she needed release or someway to calm her down. And her only method to calm down was not an option. Itachi noticed her chest started to go up and down. Soraya started looking around for an escape, but her legs were pinned and her arms above her head.
"It's easy. I'm going to fuck you so hard and have you scream my name until I feel you understand orders."
The memory of Itachi and Kakashi and their naked bodies crossed her mind and turned her on even more. But she also remembered that they were fully naked. It was then she snapped out of her erotic trance and remembered the self-inflicted scars on her legs. If Itachi was angry with her now, he would definitely be angry when he saw the scars on her thighs. As he ripped open the top half of her kimono dress, she leveraged her body to use her thigh strength to knock him off balance. He quickly climbed back on top of her. She felt his hand across her face which left a bloody handprint from his hands that were drenched in blood. She knew it was just a warning after seeing those hands tear apart grown human flesh. He was attempting to raise her skirt up, she used her hands to keep it down.
"Stop it" she pleaded, "I won't do it again I promise." Soraya struggled against him. He turned her over on her belly giving her legs fewer ways to move. She felt her panties leave their safe haven. As Itachi held her arms down behind her back.
Itachi traced his fingers along the lips of the vagina. Soraya looked up and saw him put two fingers in his mouth and he looked like he was in pure euphoria. "You know we've been wanting to taste you for a long time."
" We ", Soraya thought. Soraya thought the pronoun was quite odd. But Itachi ministrations made her lose any thought process she had. Soft moans escaped her and she covered her mouth to keep silent. She was surprised that the new sensation felt good. Was this supposed to be a punishment?
"I had our first encounter planned out a little differently", His voice was deeper, more sinister, and was hellbound on breaking her.
"Please stop", she pleaded.
"Don't worry Soraya I can be a giving lover" he rubbed his cheek against her. "I wanted to first warm you up with my tounge deep inside your pussy." Itachi traced his tounge around her ear, tasting the salt from her sweat. He started grinding his hips near her vagina, the friction of his pants giving both of them a tease. "Let me give you a preview. Oh and if you try to run away, I will stop being so benevolent." His tongue lightly flicked her now well-lubricated womanhood. Releasing her hands he raised her hips to his face and forcefully arched her back to give him better access to her. Soraya wanted to die a little inside and she was grateful he didn't see the front of her thighs. But it felt good, she couldn't deny it any longer. She put her hand over her mouth to muffle the sounds coming out of her mouth.
"Oh God", she said softly. She clenched her fist together at the intensity of the pleasure. She was glad Itachi couldn't see her face because she didn't know what she looked like, pleading like a little child for another ounce of pleasure. It was embarrassing for her. Itachi watched as her moans got louder. He could tell that she was getting close and stopped. Soraya whimpered at the loss of touch and was in panic mode again when Itachi flipped her around again.
She held her skirt down covering the area again. Itachi taking it as a challenge tried to move her hands gentler than last time, but more agressive. "Please Itachi don't look", pleaded Soraya, her hands grasping more tightly at her skirt. " There is no way I'm going to let him see my scars ", she thought. Itachi ignored her pleas and a tussle ensued. "Get off me", she gruffed aggressively and with more determination.
Itachi tired of her antics, grabbed her hand and placed them over her head. "I'm trying to be kind, woman". Soraya noticed him pulling down his pants and started positing himself at her entrance. He kissed her again and she wiggled against him. She could feel something against her inner thighs and her clenched in fear of the unknown. All she knew is that she felt powerless in this position, but she wasn't going to stop fighting. She tried to headbut him, but sensing the move he pulled his hair back. With his other hand, he held her chin firmly. They both stared in each other's eyes, Soraya looked away fear starting to overwhelm her. It was then she noticed how small she was against Itachi's rock-hard frame. She felt his lips tracing her collarbone and she bit her lip not wanting to encourage him. He then moved closer his erection closer to her nether regions.
The next thing Soraya knew, Itachi was no longer on her and she heard him groan.
Soraya noticed a man getting up and coming in a defensive stance. It was then she noticed the silver wild hair, simultaneously, relief and surprise washed over her. "It was you?", Soraya gasped. She quickly adjusted her clothing to cover herself. "Kakashi! Are you alright?", she questioned. The person she felt in distress was him. " Was it because of Itachi's transformation or something else? ", she wondered
"Leave it to Kakashi to ruin my fun", laughed Itachi.
"This isn't you Itachi", Kakashi stood in between the two. "Or Am I talking to Katsuo". Soraya's eyes widened in the realization that she was dealing with another personality. She had so many questions but definitely knew it wasn't the time to ask them.
"She disobeyed her alpha and almost got herself killed twice, she needs to be taught a lesson", stated Katsuo.
"ONLY ONE TIME, AND YOU ARE NOT MY MASTER", she screamed.
Kakashi held up his hand to her. "Soraya, I need to shut-up", Kakashi warned. "Soraya isn't like me or Izumi, this is not the way to claim her", Kakashi tried to reason. Kakashi also noted based on their past conversation she wasn't in the stage of looking for love, and definitely not sex.
"You are a beta overstepping his station", he said walking towards Soraya. Kakashi stood his ground and firmly pushed Katsuo back a second time.
"I am beta protecting an unclaimed female which is within my right, she is not married nor bound to you", Kakashi stated firmly. "You forget I still have some autonomy", he further corrected.
"Are you jealous?", Itachi inquired. Kakashi lifted his brow at Itachi's connotation. His question was so simple but had so many layers. Regardless, his feelings right now didn't matter it was getting Soraya out of this situation with this alter of Itachi.
Kakashi scoffed at the question. "Katsuo, stand down", Kakashi got in a protective stance to put an emphasis on his words.
"The last thing I want to do is fight you Kakashi, take a good look at her, how vulnerable she is, wouldn't you do anything to protect a treasure like that", Itachi said seductively. Kakashi turned around to Soraya and finally took note of her swollen face from crying. He also noticed the blood-stained handprint on her face.
"What happened", asked Kakashi gently. Soraya explained to him the sitaution of her going to the Spring alone, the deal with Orochimaru and how she was ambushed. Kakashi closed his eyes in anger. "He has a point, if you had a team you could have put everyone in danger not just yourself." Soraya could feel the anger coming from Kakashi, but it slowly dissipated into annoyance and a little bit of fear.
"I will take her punishment", said Kakashi. "Her body is not prepared for it"
Kakashi could see Itachi contemplating his suggestion. In reality, all Kakashi was doing was coaxing Itachi's primal tendencies of retribution. Which most of the time required a sexual act. Kakashi could handle the brutality of Katsuo. Soraya would have to make the choice for herself, although she didn't have much of one. It wouldn't be fair to Soraya because she had no idea that she was considered an Omega female or what all that entailed. Soraya would never give in to this Katsuo and he could only imagine what he would do to her to make her try. Especially, if he felt that it was right and it was in her best protection. However, Soraya was still adjusting to this new world.
Itachi nodded his head finally in agreement. "Let's see how better you've gotten since our last encounter Hatake", Kakashi grimaced at the smile Itachi gave.
"Run", said Kakashi. "Make yourself untraceable. I will find you", The sense of urgency in Kakashi's voice made her hesitate before Soraya ran away.
Katsuo waited until Soraya was out of sight before he spoke. "You are exonerating her actions, I hope you take responsibility the next time she does something so stupid", Itachi said condescendingly. Itachi started circling Kakashi waiting for a point to strike. Kakashi started to do the same.
"I'm doing no such thing, I would handle it gracefully just like if you were your normal self", Itachi was suddenly in front of him with his fist ready to connect with Kakashi's face. Kakashi caught it and blocked other attacks from Itachi. When Itachi finally connected it didn't phase Kakashi as his body disappeared. Itachi felt a sudden hard connection for his jaw. Itachi spit out some blood and wiped his mouth.
"Playtime is over", said Itachi.
"I'm stronger this time Itachi, and even if I lose this fight you won't find her, I made sure of it", said Kakashi. "And you can't fight for that long. Did you forget that?", added Kakashi. "11 minutes and 59 seconds is all you have left"
"If you think you can last that long against me, you are mistaken", Kakashi barely had time to dodge the shuriken coming his way. He jumped out of the way and grabbed Itachi's arm that was trying to connect with his torso. Kakashi punched Itachi trying to knock him out, he connected his punch, but Itachi quickly recovered. They both jumped in the air trying to gain the high ground, all that was heard were their Kunai's connecting. Itachi used his fireball jutsu to create some distance between the two, which succeeded. Kakashi backflipped out of the way and panted.
"Come now why don't you use that Chidori that would make this a little more interesting", mocked dark Itachi.
"My lightning will never be used on my comrades", panted Kakashi. "Damn it", Kakashi cursed when he realized that most of his chakra was gone. It must have been from the last fight. The Janjira must not only have chakra nullifying techniques but, chakra siphoning techniques as well.
"Tired, Kakashi?", asked Itachi. "It hasn't even been three minutes", he taunted further. Kakashi suddenly felt Itachi's arm around his throat. Itachi had but him a headlock, but he didn't squeeze. Itachi traced his tongue from his chin to his ear. "You said you would take her punishment, but I expected more of a fight, I never technically agreed. I can just imagine her virginal pussy, with blood on my dick as it goes in and-
Kakashi flipped him over and started pounding Katsuo, "You sick FUCK", he said angrily his punches continuing to get harder.
"Jealous Kakashi? Oh that's right you never been with a woman before", Kakashi ignored the taunts knowing that Itachi was trying to make him go all out to tire him even further. Additionally, this was just a fight for dominance, not to death. "I'll let you have her first, consider it my treat especially since all we've been through together"
"She's not an object", said Kakashi darkly. Kakashi attempted to punch Itachi, but the ground broke underneath him as he narrowly missed. A kunai grazed his arm, and he hissed in pain.
"Do you think Itachi and I think so lowly of you two", he growled in Kakashi's ear.
Kakashi cursed as he felt the last of his chakra leave him. "Katsuo I'm begging you, if you rape her she will always hate you, always be afraid of you, and more importantly she will never love you",
Something snapped in Itachi. A series of punches came Kakashi's way and he took all of them. Blood was starting to ooze from his eye that was showing and he could smell the blood on his mask that came from his injuries. " Fine, we will have it your way Kakashi."
Soraya didn't know how far she ran, but she suddenly stopped. Itachi had multiple personalities. All the thoughts in her head just lead to the question of why. What stopped her dead in her tracks was even though he was hurting her in his twisted mind, he thought he would help her. All in All, this was her fault and she refused to cry about it. There was no way around it. Also, she couldn't let Kakashi take accountability for something that was definitely on her. She wasn't stupid, she knew Kakashi was losing, just based off the emotions she could feel from the two. Itachi, or Katsuo rather had the glee of dominance, and she could feel that Kakashi was afraid just like her. Without even thinking she ran back.
When she arrived where the two were she saw Kakashi on the ground on his stomach, with Itachi/Katsuo entering him from behind. Itachi looked primal and full of ecstasy. Kakashi on the other hand, looked defeated and in pain. He held his hand over his mouth and she could clearly tell that he was in agony. His loud moans were different from when she caught them in the cemetery. This wasn't affection, this was something ugly and she wouldn't tolerate it.
Again, her feet moved before she could even think of what to do. Her bracelet turned into a bo staff, then she used the momentum to push Itachi off Kakashi and held her bo staff out to him. "Stop it Itachi, or Katashi or whatever your name is, it's all Itachi"
Kakashi let out an exhale of relief, but was quickly back on edge the he saw Soraya was there. He stood up behind her beaten and full of pain. "You can't hurt him Soraya he knows that, Omegas can not fatally harm their alphas or beta"
"So I'm just some slave to him", she yelled. "I won't be a slave to anyone"
"Kakashi forgot to tell you that I can not fatally harm you either, an Alpha has the responsibility of protecting their entire clan-
"You think you are protecting me", she spat. "So you harm me, make me scared of you, so you can protect me", she scoffed. "Look at what you did to Kakashi", she yelled. "You call that protection Itachi". Angry tears started to fall from her eyes. "You are no better than my parents,"
"I don't know what you are implying, but I could tell your body and spirit wanted me", Soraya breathed deeply as it wasn't the time to explain her entire family or ex-family situation. It also took time to look at this situation objectively. He was right in a way, but there was no way she could face him discovering the scars on her legs.
"I'm very much afraid of you", tears started to prick her eyes. "I don't want to hurt you, but I will if I have to", her voice began to crack, but her bo staff was still held high in front of her waiting for the slightest of movements from him.
"Kakashi?", Katsuo tone signaled for Kakashi to handle or ease the situation. Kakashi gave an uneasy stare at the man infront of him. His intention was to keep Soraya safe but he didn't account for her coming back. He hated her bravery, but it was something to be admired, knowing you are weak but defending someone else. It was stupid, that gesture was only made for books, in real life she would be dead or worse.
"Now, Now we won't have to go that far Sora-chan", Kakashi's rhythmic playful voice tried to sooth her. "You are going to have to trust me", whispered Kakashi so low. He knew she heard him because of her sensitive hearing. Kakashi gently reached for her birthday staff. "Put it away." Soraya nodded at the gentle command and the staff reverted back to it's braclet form.
Katsuo started to walk forward but Kakashi put his hand out to signal him to stop. "How about a little show", Kakashi said playfully. He pulled Soraya back into his chest. Soraya could feel his toned chest through her back, and Kakashi could feel her forming ass on his thigh. "You are doing great", he whispered encouragingly through his mask. "Deep breaths for the next part", he slowly unbuttoned her now bloody blouse. Katsuo's eyes became more and more attuned to Sorayas impending naked flesh. She was wearing a push up bra that elevated her breast to the perfect curviture. Kakashi knew that any male couldn't resist. "I'm going to touch you but if all goes to plan you will only be uncomfortable for a few moments, close your eyes"
Soraya did what she was told and felt Kakashi pull down her bra and she whimpered. Kakashi grouped her breast sensually and he could tell that Katsuo was enthralled by the ministration. A small moan came from her mouth, which is just what Kakashi needed. Katsuo was totally captivated by the image of those two.
Kakashi pulled down his mask and turned her head around to kiss him. He pulled one of her hands toward his crotch but she felt a syringe in her hands that he slipped into her sleeve. "Now go to him", he said sternly. She gave him a questioning look. He kissed her neck sweetly, "It's still Itachi but sometimes he needs help getting back to himself" he said talking in her shoulder softly.
Soraya turned around and slowly walked towards Itachi, or the man that was in Itachi's body. With every step she got more and more nervous. Katsuo was about to walk forward to meet her but she put her hand out to stop him. "Please let me touch you my own way", she pleaded. "I'm still very scared", she added as she clutched the syringe.
Katsuo nodded. At least they were getting somewhere, she was right in front of him her body shaking. She motioned for him to bend down for a kiss, and she pressed her lips to his gently, then her tounge went into his mouth for a deeper kiss. He embraced her tightly as if he hungered for her in a long time, and she almost got lost in the kiss.
Almost.
Katsuo felt a prick in his neck and a burning liquid enter his system. "Damn you Kakashi"
Kakashi let out a deep held breath. "Just doing my job as a Beta", he said nonchalantly. "I still have to keep both of you in check and protect you and all, not very easy, but mon cherie here has a lot of potential, you picked a good Omega and I will watch over her as you sleep" Kakashi watched as Itachi's form feel and Soraya caught him.
"What the fuck was that", she screamed.
Kakashi summoned a blanket to go around her and ignored her outburst. He picked up Itachi's lifeless body. "Do you have a different set of clothes". She nodded. She had a casual hanbok in her bag now that the current one that she was wearing was definitely ruined. "Follow me". Kakashi summoned a clone and commanded it to clean the bodies and to keep watch for enemies. "I know a hot spring not to far from here", Kakashi started walking and Soraya followed.
Kakashi gently put Itachi's body by a tree close to the hotspring. He would deal with him later, but right now he had to make sure Soraya was settled.
Soraya stood at the edge of the water, replaying everything that just happened. She folded her arms trying to steady herself. There was no way she could resort to cutting herself because Kakashi was here. Kakashi was already in the hot spring fully naked, his clothes tossed away. He waited a few minutes to monitor her behavior before he decided to coax her in the water.
Soraya was surprised to see Kakashi's wet body infront of her, she was so into herself she had no idea that he was already in the hot spring. "Let's get these clothes off", Soraya stepped back away from him. Kakashi raised his hands as a sign of calm. "I promise nothing is going to happen, lets just get the blood off you", Soraya gazed down and noticed the dirt, grime, and blood all over her. Kakashi carefully stepped towards her. He pulled off her blouse and Soraya followed by taking off her skirt. He took her hand and led her to the water.
She stopped when she noticed Kakashi glance at her legs. The scars were still noticeable even in the sunset. Soraya could tell by the look on his face that he knew what those were. "Please don't tell Itachi", she pleaded.
Kakashi swallowed. "We all have our secrets, I just ask that you find something more productive to unleash your feelings"
"What is your secret Kakashi?", she questioned. Kakashi began to wash her back and then her arms. He was silent for many minutes. There were so many.
"I hated you when I first saw you", he confessed. "I knew Itachi would start having feelings for you, I was jealous, and when I went to your room that day I came to unnerve you, but something made me want to be your side." Soraya wasn't surprised at the confession. She felt his jealousy with the kiss he gave her. It was like he was telling her Itachi belonged to him. "For the longest time Itachi was all that I had to look forward to"
"That's why I couldn't let him hurt you", she interjected. "Why can't you say that you love him"
Kakashi was taken aback about her bluntness. But, he continued to clean her hands. "Either way I'm bound to him until he dies, and I'm not sure if he feels the same way"
"Bound, what does that mean? It sounded like he wanted to do the same thing to me.", she inquired. Kakashi paused and Soraya could feel his apprehension and slight jealously.
"Sometime before the Third Ninja War someone in your clan, the Hatake and The Uchiha made a pact to be loyal to one another. The Uchiha were the more powerful, so they became the Alphas, the Hatake were second in charge, and the Rui's were a lesser noble class, Omega's if you will. Usually, there was sometype of ceremony to establish a marriage or partner for offspring, but because our numbers are so low, that pact is taking a more primal urge. Katsuo is the personification of that bond. You are in heat right now, which means your ovulating, Itachi and I are reacting strongly to it, especially since you put yourself in danger."
Soraya looked away processing what Kakashi was saying. "So you don't know wheter it is love or this bond you speak of", Kakashi turned around avoiding her glance. She took the soap out of his hands and began washing his back. She was silent for a while, and before they knew it they were just sitting with the hotspring. Kakashi got a cool cloth and put it on her head. "The first time I saw you, I was honestly amazed, I never knew two men could be together and look so beautiful", she admitted. "I have feelings for Itachi, but I knew if I brought up you without him telling me first, it would make him uncomfortable, and I just wanted to get to know you after that, because there was something beautiful about you", she looked at the beautiful sun set that was upon them.
"Men prefer the term handsome", Kakashi corrected. Soraya smiled as hint of playfulness raidated from him in this very dark situation.
"Can you be bound to more than one person?", she asked. "My mother is married to three people", she added.
"Sometimes", Kakashi answered cautiously. "Marriage is on paper, being bound to someone goes even deeper than your soul and body", Kakashi clarified. He showed her the marking on his thigh. "This was bestowed to me the night Itachi and I were bound, but it is unfished", he stated.
"Why", Soraya asked.
"It can only happen with two men and one woman, or vice versa, because the need to procreate is very strong once the ceremony takes place"
"So how do you know I'm the one that will satisfy that need for both of you and Itachi"
"You are the only Omega that both Itachi and I feel a connection to, and before you ask I would have had the same feeling if it was one of your sisters", stated Kakashi. Soraya and Kakashi sat in silence. Kakashi was allowing her to process the explanation he gave her and it also allowed him to observe her as well.
"How many alters does Itachi have, and what happened in his childhood to form other identities", she asked.
"I have only experienced two, but I have a feeling there are three or four, either way it's a highly sophisticated system they have in place", Kakashi answered. "Katsuo really only comes when things have to get messy, I think Katsuo is what Itachi would have become if he wasn't naturally a pacifist"
"I think I know what you are saying, the merchant, I remember he was different when we went to Konoha, he even changed his face", she said remembering the day they first came to Konoha.
Kakashi nodded. "I think their is a transient alter that chooses which one to bring to the front, but..", Kakashi stopped trying not to say too much. "You need to know that Itachi wouldn't let any part of himself hurt you"
"He was in the Great Ninja War", she remembered. She deduced that he formed the personalities during those times to manage the stress and trauma that he endured. "And so were you", she turned towards him. Soraya wondered how the war affected Kakashi. Kakashi finally looked her with a new sense of vulnerability. She could finally see it. Beyond the funny, condescending man their was a deep pain. She didn't have to know the full story, but she knew that right now he also needed comfort. Something he probably never had. She put her hand on to his in reassurance. At that moment Kakashi started to relive some of the traumatic events that happened. Tears started to come into his eyes as he remembered his past. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have pressed". Kakashi rested his head on her stomach. Soraya embraced him and rubbed his back. It took some time but his arms embraced her as well.
"I should be comforting you"
Soraya shook her head. "I felt you earlier you're not okay", a tear ran down her eye as she felt Kakashi's tears on her stomach. "Let it out Mon Cherie, regardless of anything you are still very much dear to me, and I will never tell anyone you cried" Kakashi chuckled at her makeshift joke. But for once, he felt a safe connection that he could latch on to, even for a moment
As the night fell Kakashi and her got dressed. Kakashi burned her clothes that she wore previously. Soraya was grateful as there was no way to mend them, or wash the blood stained garmnets. Also, she knew she would relive each moment of what had transpired if she kept the outfit. Currently, she wore a casual hanbook and he had a spare anbu uniform. He helped Soraya set up camp near the hotspring. When they were done they both cleaned the bloody Itachi and changed him to clean clothes. "The sight of blood is usually what triggers Katsuo, or any type of danger, but Itachi always changes back when he awakes from a deep sleep, which is why I always carry sleeping pills or the sleeping tonic"
Soraya nodded. "Thank you Kakashi, I got it from here", she bowed in respect. She went back to tending the Itachi and the camp and Kakashi just watched her in the corner of his eye. She had washed his mask, as he didn't have a spare one, and he was really thankful for the small deed.
"Soraya", Kakashi called. Soraya stood and walked back to Kakashi.
"Is something wrong", Kakashi pondered on what to say. He was just really admiring her, and the potential woman she would become. He grabbed the ribbon in her hair that was keeping it together and rubbed in between his fingers.
"Do you mind if I kiss you", he asked.
Soraya thought about it for a minute. Which made Kakashi very uncomfortable. "Only on the cheek", Kakashi looked slightly dissapointed and was about to bend down but she stopped him. "Then on my forehead, then ever so gracefully my lips", she demanded. Her cheeks were darkening from the excitement, but she kept her composure.
Kakashi chuckled as he pecked her cheek, then her forehead, but he took time with her lips. He pressed his lips to her's admiring the fresh taste of her lucious lips, and she was admiring the new consentual sensations. Both were in pure ectasy, but Kakashi knew he had to pull away before he went even further. That kiss would have to last him for years, as he knew that he couldn't fully be with her until she reached the age of majority.
"I have to go", his forehead was on hers. She nodded in agreement and he left without saying anything more. In that moment Soraya knew that her days as a child was over, she had to grow and become a woman to protect her brother and her family.
"But before I do Naruto wanted me to give you this", Soraya's eyes seem to brighten ten fold at the mention of the blonde's name. He gave her the picture and her eye's started to water.
"How is he?", she questioned. "My heart was heavy when I left my brother, but it's even heavier leaving him alone", she whispered a tear escaping her eye as she traced the portrait. "How could I leave him behind", she questioned.
"You will see him again, just like you will see me", Kakashi said tilting her chin up trying to get her some comfort. "You had no choice, now, don't cry", he said wiping her eyes with a handkerchief. She nodded and grabbed his hand.
"Go, we will be fine", she whispered. "And Thank you", she said as she clutched the picture to her chest.
Kakashi walked away from the camp at a slower pace than usual. He was not in a rush to get back to Konoha. He stopped when he sensed a two familiar chakra signature nearby.
"You know you two could have helped", Kakashi stated turning to Tsunade and Jiraya.
"And be accused of trying to steal his Omega, I don't think so", Jiraya laughed.
"Also, as the only Senju left, I'm the unofficial Alpha, he and you would see it as a challenge, like you said, your bond is starting to get more primal, but I'm here now", Tsunade stated.
"If your an Alpha why didn't your bond make you lose control", inquired Kakashi. "You are the last Senju" Tsunade remained quite.
"I had a child, and they are dead and I have no one to lead", Jiraya put a hand on her Shoulder in comfort. "I didn't interfere because Soraya has two of the strongest ninja's of The Leaf, she has to manage you two on her own, had it been back in my day she would get fucked and beaten in the inch of her life, the fact that Itachi's alter stopped is a miracle, now let me heal you" Tsunade took out her medical kit and laid a makeshift cot down. "Take off your pants I know you are bleeding from your anus, Itachi did a number on you"
"I leave you to it", said Jiaraya. "I'll watch the princess until Itachi is awake, something tells me Danzo was behind this and sees her as a nuisance"
"After that get lost", said Tsunade tending to Kakashi.
"Oh Tsunade way to be harsh", he said in mock woundedness.
"Just go do your stupid research for your stupid book", she said throwing a rock at him. "But leave the girl out of your research.
"Unlike Kakashi I like my women older", she gave him a glare and threw another rock at him and he scattered.
