~Blood ties~

Kakashi was in a considerably bad mood all a product of no leads in three weeks, lack of sleep, and aggravating civilians left him thrumming with unreleased tension. The dogs hadn't found a single trail yet and they'd already covered half of Konoha, oh what he wouldn't give to find the Uchiha nest and rid the world of the beasts.

He walked down the market place ignoring the haggling as shoppers closed up for the night, and the petty squabbles amongst the people that only served to delay him further. Still he had to admit that it didn't look like he'd be doing his public duty and killing anything in the near future, he was about to head home for a few hours rest when he noticed Baki had wandered off. Irritable at the hound for pulling such a stunt he backtracked to the last alleyway he passed and shouted out "BAKI!" His eyes adjusted to the gloom and he noticed a figure getting up and his dog coming back, so his mutt was late on the account of getting attention. Typical.

He wondered though if the being was human, if not then the night wouldn't have been a waste after all. The guy stood up "Is he yours? If he is I'm sorry if I kept him."

Kakashi couldn't see him clearly enough so he shrugged not giving a verbal answer and leaned against the alley wall, now that his body wasn't blocking the light entirely he could see the guy was a young man probably around his age with spiky black hair and orange tinted goggles which was peculiar to say the least. His eyes weren't blood red but instead a normal onyx which ruled out Uchiha, Hyuuga and demons, also he had no fangs, wings, suspicious tattoos, tails, horns, as well as that he seemed solid, so Kakashi ruled out him being a creature and simply labelled him as a civilian.

The guy came closer but Kakashi didn't back away surprised as his thoughts became lethargic and foggy, the guy said "My name's Obito. Who are you?"

Kakashi raised an eyebrow as he came even closer and through the warm haze he heard himself say "Kakashi."

The dogs were actually settled down at his feet so he trusted their sense in judgement that this guy wasn't a threat but the weird air that had settled around them was worrying. He couldn't concentrate though as his thoughts swirled like water, his stomach felt warm, his chest felt tight and the urge to posses the 'Obito' character was downright frightening. He wanted to scream at him to back off, he wanted to walk away and never look back but his body ignored those thoughts choosing to move forward without his consent. He placed a hand on Obito's cheek shivering at the tingle that travelled up his arm, he was not disappointed as Obito nuzzled his palm making a small purring like noise. The haze was so heavy now, a thick fog covering his mind preventing all the warning signs in his brain from working as he kissed Obito's forehead and growled lowly "Mine."

Obito's response was a kiss on the cheek and a breathy "Yours."
