A/N: Thanks for all who've read so far... I'd like to see a few more reviews letting me know if you love it or hate it... please don't make me beg! Pouting with puppy dog eyes :)
dashdashhypenspace-:I'm glad you've liked it so far! I tried to make it interesting... the cool trick the girls can do with their eyes... well, just wait til I reveal one of their own jutsus!
Aphy: Sis, I'm thrilled you think it rocks! I do my best for ya and since my freaking internet was fudging up; not being able to talk to you and getting your opinion, well I didn't know how this would turn out for you. You made my day!
On with the story :
Previously at the end of Chapter 7:
Opening her eyes, Kadike smiled at her daughters. "You're here! I was afraid we'd miss one another. Unfortunately, it's time to give you your instructions. After I'm gone, contact Ishizu to take care of my burial, then I want you to leave here for a time. Go to the fire country and find the village of Konoha. There, in this village, you will seek Tsunade, who's the Hokage there. She will help you with whatever you need. I want you girls to live there; find a couple of wonderful husbands and have a family. All of this will give you so much to live for as it did for me."
Kadike reached up with both hands to touch her twins' faces. "I love you both and I'm very proud of you. Don't forget the letter that's lying on the table should the need arise." Expelling the last breath from her body, their mother's hands slowly slid off Kite's and Dani's faces to lie beside her body.
Dani and Kite cried for what seemed like hours over their mother's passing. Dani was the first to stop, looking at her sister, her teary voice spoke, "We have a mission, now, Kite. There's no time to stay here and continue weeping. I'll send for Ishizu and have him take care of mother. Then, you and I , we'll set off on another adventure, if you will. So until we complete our mission, we can't be idle, you understand?"
Kite nodded her head, straightening her back and wiping her eyes, she agreed. The twin elementals left the room to go pack their things, preparing for their long journey.
Dani left to inform Ishizu of their mom's death and the arrangements. She returned two hours later. "Everything's taken care of, Kite, so we can leave now."
Putting their packs on their backs, they checked all their weapons. Neither of them wanted to be caught on the road without them. Breathing deeply to gather their strength; they released the air from their lungs and started the first steps on the perilous mission to Konoha.
Stepping out of the brush and tree line, the shadow duo, followed behind, anxious to see what awaited on the road ahead. It sure would be an interesting ride from the look of things! Refusing to acknowledge the bad feelings they felt, these shadows recognized that even if they hadn't been given the order, they'd still protect the girls with their very lives. Masking their chakra further to keep from being sensed, the two hurried along for they'd been away from home far too long!
Chapter 2: Following
Walking for what seemed like hours, Dani and Kite stopped to eat and rest. Both still effected by their mother's death, it clouded their minds; they didn't even sense the two presences following them. This had been going on since they left their home earlier. Their guards down, exhausted from lack of sleep and with the distance they're traveling they risked being attacked at any time. Neither of them really knew how to reach Konoha, they just had a general direction in which to head.
Dani lay down on the grass, shutting her eyes, trying to get perhaps a little rest. Kite sat with her back to a huge rock. She never liked leaving her back open to everything. It was always better having your back up against a rock or something. If you're attacked then the least of your worries would be getting struck in the back.
They were both sleeping until the snap of a twig echoed loudly throughout the area.
At the same time, Dani was grabbed by the throat, Kite was grabbed on each side by two huge, ugly men. The leader was tall and good looking but his obvious lack in personality and manners made him appear the opposite, also making both girls cringe. He had short black hair, well muscled body and he was scrutinizing each girl causing them to shiver. The two at Kite's side and the one at Dani's basically looked the same.
Exchanging a look, Kite and Dani knew this was going to come down to a fight, something they didn't want unless it was necessary.
Kite asked the leader,"Excuse me but who are you?" She wasn't one to pretend to cower being frightened of a man. Why should she when she possessed the power she did.
Reaching out with his hand, pushing her chin up to see her face better, he replied,"I'm Sito." Motioning to the guys holding her he continued naming names. "These two are Mako and Touno. Holding your lovely sister over there is Paku."
Dani struggling to get away from Paku was shocked that he knew their relationship. "Wait. how do you know if we're sister's or not?"
Sito smiled. The sight unnerved Dani; Kite too. "Let's just say we've been payed well to keep you from Konoha. Someone wants the two of you so badly, they're willing to pay a huge bounty for you both!" Stepping over to Dani, he lay his hand on her face, cupping her cheek, Sito slowly, seductively, ran his hand down her face sliding it down her neck and following his own path down to her body.
Outraged, Dani struggled but their was something off here... her movements were extremely limited, 'Oh no!', she thought. 'I've had a paralyzing jutsu applied to me!' Glancing at Kite, it was the same thing there. She couldn't move either, not much, anyway. "What the hell do you think you're doing? Get your disgusting hands off me!"
Dani had never wanted to cry so bad in her life, outside her mother's death. Without the jutsu that'd been placed on them, her and Kite could've taken them and killed them easily. Somehow, they'd been betrayed, but by who she'd like to know!
Meanwhile at a discreet distance, two males were having difficulty keeping their temper in check. As soon as Dani had been grabbed and the leader taking liberties with her, the taller of the two was prepared to unleash kunai hell on them all. The other man kept a careful eye on Kite, hoping they didn't subject her to the touches and humiliation that Dani was enduring.
The tall one told his companion,"We stay here for now. Apparently they can't raise some hell due to a paralyzing jutsu placed on both of them. If they try to go any farther with Dani, we'll attack; we'll kill all the rotten bastards."
Slowly nodding his head to show his agreement, the second man gritted his teeth forcing himself to keep a semblance of calmness and not go after them until it was time. "Let me guess... you can see what they've done with your special abilities, can't you?"
"Yes." Turning his eyes and head back to the traumatizing scene before them, they could only watch for now. This was a torture all by itself, nothing extra needed. Silently, wishing the girls could hold out for awhile, the men wanted the villains to reveal more of themselves and their full purpose of being here and who paid them to carry this out.
Sito had been told that both girls were virgins and this pleased him greatly. Inching slowly forward he teased Dani,"You've never been with a man, have you?" His other hand roamed over her body then coming to a halt on her waist, sliding around to her back, she jumped a little, unsure of what his plans consisted of.
Shaking her head, she whispered,"No." Tears welled up in her eyes at the thought of this barbarian touching her further and taking something she couldn't ever get back.
"You prick! Leave her alone." Kite was furious! If only she could move, she'd tear him limb from limb!
"Hush, my dear, you'll have a turn, don't worry." Sito's voice left her skin cold, but her body was infuriated at her sister's treatment.
Before Dani had a chance to react, Sito quickly swept in claiming a kiss. With the jutsu still in effect she couldn't fight him at all; her struggles weak and pathetic, like a small child. After moments that felt like eternity, he pulled back; fascinated at what her eyes revealed to him.
"Beautiful. You must be upset, Dani. Your eyes are turning purple. I've heard of this anomaly, but never seen it til now." Admiring her eyes, face and body, he admitted he wanted her, didn't care much for her sister, but he wanted Dani." Your eyes, the way they turn; your hair, glinting like liquid silver under the moonlight...I can't resist, you'll be mine, forever!"
"NO! GET OFF!" Dani tried to make her body obey her commands to move, but it was futile, the jutsu was too powerful right now. Looking over at her sister she mouthed, "I'm sorry!"
Kite found herself able to move a little. Stepping backwards what short distance she could, she stomped hard on Mako's foot. Touno reacted with a punch to her face knocking her to the ground.
"Kite!" Anxiously eyeing her sister, she closed her eyes to feel her sister. Nothing. She must be unconcious! These men would learn they were called the Shinobi Elements for a reason!
Sito whipped out a hidden kunai from the back of his back pouch. He started slicing her top in half when a kunai flew past his head. An unfamiliar voice rang out in the clearing.
"That was a warning. The next one WILL NOT miss!" It happened to be a man's voice, deep, but not too deep; the animosity carried in his tone was unmistakable. Standing next to him was another man. Both of them were dressed as nins but he wasn't sure where they hailed from.
Glancing at their forehead protectors he swore harshly."Damn! Guys let's make a run for it. Those two are from Konoha; we can't match them right now as we are. Retreat." Jerking Dani up to his body, Sito stole one final kiss before throwing her to the ground. With four seperate puffs of smoke they all vanished, no traces of them left behind.
The kunai thrower headed over to Dani, helping her up. Dispelling the jutsu that held the girls prisoner, the first voice asked Dani if she's alright.
"I'm fine. What about Kite?" Worriedly looking at her sibling, she wondered if she was ok.
The second man spoke up."She's fine. Just knocked out, that's all."
Dani appraised the men, starting with the one who'd helped her. He was really tall, silver hair, his forehead protector covered one of his eyes and he wore a mask. His body was one of a slim, muscled build from many years of working out. The second man, being shorter, had longer brown hair, also, well muscled. His tradmark distinction was the senbon cradled between his perfect lips.
Shock setting in, she asked them nervously,"Who are you guys? Where'd you come from?"
The silver haired man stepped closer. "I'm Hatake, Kakashi and this is my friend Shiranui, Genma. We've been sent to retrieve you, bringing you to Konoha, which is where we're from."
Her eyes widened. It had to be their lucky day now. "That's where we're supposed to be going. It was our mother's last words to us. Whenever she died, we were to go to Konoha and seek out Tsunade, the Hokage of that village."
Both Kakashi and Genma smirked. It was hard to believe but they were thinking the same thing at this point in time.'Today must be our lucky day!'
Fiercely scowling at their rescuers she snapped,"Don't get any ideas! My sister and I could tear you both to pieces should we want to."
Snorting, Genma fired back,"Right now, with those guys, you couldn't even take care of yourself!" Rolling his eyes, it would be Kami's day to laugh at them; luck giving him and Kakashi a pair of feminists! Kami's sense of humor sucked pretty bad right now!
Sticking her face up near Genma's, Dani frowned. "I don't know why those guys ran from the two of you, but Genma, you don't look like much."
"Darlin' you know what they say about dynamite!" He turned his head, mischieviously grinning.
"No. What would that be? That it's all an initial boom and a lot of disappointment behind it!" He'd definitely pushed her buttons and wasn't getting away with it!
A hand placed itself on her arm. Dani promptly jerked her arm away from the offending hand. Growling,"Don't touch me!"
Kakashi's eye opened wider, his eyebrow riding up into his hairline. It aggravated him to hear her attitude; after all she should be grateful for being rescued. Surely she didn't like the molestation she'd been experiencing. Wanting to see how far she'd go, he asked her,"What.. should we have left you? Did you like him touching you? Did you...WANT him?" Kakashi's voice now had the seductive tone to it.
Raising her hand, Dani slapped him for his insensitive questions and comments. Genma just laughed about it. She asked him,"Do you want some too? Then how about a nice cup of shut the hell up!" Her eyes, moments ago had gone back to green and now... they were a violet purple.
Kakashi noticed her eyes. 'She must be pretty worked up for them to be that color,' he thought. 'They've gone into a deep purple, like some hues you see in a sunset or sunrise at certain times of the morning and evening.
"Ohhhhhhhhh... my head hurts. What the -?" Kite looked at the trio in confusion. "What's going on ,Dani?"
Snidely spitting out,"These apparently are our bodyguards." Introducing the tall man as Kakashi and the senbon twirler as Genma.
"We don't need guardians, bodyguards or anything else. We're just fine on our own!" Kite was pissed at the thought of having two male babysitters. She learned from her mother's mistake, not to trust a man...ever! He'd talk nice to you, screw you then leave you high and dry. Stupid bastards! All of them!
Genma stood up. "What the hell is this? Let's-be-unappreciative-day or something? You know what thank you is, right?" He crossed his arms, the frustration rising, feeling the urge to kill them both already!
Dani and Kite both spoke. "Yeah. We know what it is but you don't deserve it!"
Kite stated,"What, did you think we'd screw you out of gratitude? We don't work that way idiot!" Hugging her sister, she wanted to cut his parts off and scatter them to the four winds!
Speaking up,Kakashi replied back,"We didn't expect anything but a simple thank you. That's it."
"Well it's not going to happen anyway. We will never show gratitude to any man for anything!" Dani, unfortunately, not knowing the two jounin, didn't realize she'd just set up herself and Kite for one hell of a bet. One the guys were positive they'd lose!
The silver headed, fomer ANBU captain smirked. "Care to bet on that?"
Kite nodded . "We take that bet! You two will be going down."
Staring at her, Genma verbally shot back at Kite."When all's said and done... you two will be going down.. on us that is!
Lunging forward, Kite tried to punch Genma but her sister caught her and Kakashi stepped in front of him just to stop her from doing something foolish. She snapped out," You son of a bitch! Get ready for the fight of your life. I'll take you down myself!"
"Ummmm.. I love a good challenge." Winking at her, Genma felt her control slip further out of her control. Her sister leaned in whispering something in her ear, instantaneously calming her. He'd never seen anything like it!
"So, Kakashi, what are the stakes?" Dani questioned nervously. She bit down on her bottom lip hoping it was something that she and Kite could live with should they lose.
"If we win, we get a months worth of dates, on which we do whatever we want. If you win... what would be required of us?" Intently watching the silver haired girl, he wondered what she'd whip of for their half.
Kite stepped up to the plate on this one."You'll be our slaves for a month. Our-personal-slaves...cleaning our weapons, helping us spar among other things. So just you wait. And you better hope we don't win because you'll regret it!"
Genma and Kakashi stuck out their hands, as did the girls. All four shook hands completing the bet and sealing it. Before they two females could start to mouth off again, Kakashi looked both of them in the eyes, inducing them into a sleep filled jutsu, where they'd sleep until the group reached Konoha.
Kakashi caugh Dani as she fell towards the ground. Genma did the same with Kite.
"Kashi?"
"Yeah?"
"Don't you think they're gonna be pissed when they wake up?"
"Probably. But our trip will go smoother and faster with them incapacitated and giving us no shit! It'll be easier letting Tsunade deal with them, relaxing their fiery tempers. They're just as bad as she is!
The two gorgeous jounin jumped upwards into the trees going in the direction of their home. The anticipation was making them slightly giddy. It'd been almost a month since they'd left to find the twin girls. All they wanted was a hot meal and an even hotter bath. Having a drink wouldn't hurt either.
Genma and Kakashi had already observed that these girls were nothing but trouble. They both wanted to hear it from Dani and Kite on why they were so negative about men. Could it have to do with the disappearance of their father and how noone knew who he was? Unfortunately, their were so many blanks to fill in and if the girls didn't know any of the answers then this may have turned out to be a wasted trip!
Shortly, up ahead, there appeared the gates of Konoha. Relief flooded through the men, they were so glad to be home and now they had to deliver their precious cargo into Tsunade's hands. Leaping along the rooftops and over buildings they finally found theirselves standing directly in front of the Hokage's office.
Holding his breath, Kakashi shoved the door open, walking in with Genma on his tail. Dani and Kite were still asleep and it was a good thing too. They didn't need a fight in Tsunade's office! That'd be one other pissed off woman to add to the list!
"Welcome back you two! I'd like to hear your report." Tsunade sat in her chair, fingers steepled together and listening carefully.
Kakashi laid Dani on the futon in her office and said he'd start first. He went into the details, even describing the girls attackers and everything but the bet made it in his verbal report.
Genma had put Kite down when they first entered and was now giving his report. When down, the Hokage congratulated them on a job well done and ordered them to go and rest. She assured them the girls would be fine and under her protection until the client arrived.
Leaving the Hokage building, the two jounin walked towards their favorite bar in desperate need of a drink. Both wanted to drown the memories of a certain pair of girls who'd set their blood on fire and issued a challenge to their very manhood. By tonight neither would feel or remember anything and fall into a drunken slumber. A drunken slumber sounded nice. They laughed and talked, their voices and forms eventually fading from sight and sound.
