Kakashi woke up barely able to move.
Testing his limits, he found that his hands had been tied behind his back, so tightly that they were bleeding. His feet were tied as well, but not as tightly. He had been stripped of his weapons, and even his jounin vest had been taken. They must know there are powerful scrolls in there. Kakashi sighed. How did he get out of this one?
Itachi had gagged him as well.
Oh, this changes things. Kakashi didn't know how long he had been out, where he was, or who was holding him prisoner. Again. I just hope Tsunade finds me soon, otherwise I am road kill."
"Naughty," someone scolded from across the room. Kakashi turned to see who it was. Yasu slowly walked towards him, footsteps echoing off the stone walls and floors of the chamber. "I hear you were pretty nasty on the way here, Kakashi." Kakashi internally flinched as his name was spat in distaste. Yasu's eyes narrowed as she glared down at Kakashi, then slowly lowered herself so that she was on eye level with him. "You've been struggling," she said plainly, and reached out to touch him. Kakashi recoiled in disgust. He didn't want this filth touching him! Yasu smiled as Kakashi's body suddenly froze.
What a hell he was in! Like a dog, he was chained to the wall by the neck. Immediately, Kakashi tried the thick, short chain to see if it was a genjutsu. This only earned him a painful yelp as the chain dug into the tender skin of his neck. Yasu slid her fingers under the edge of the chain, gently tugging it away from Kakashi's throat. Warm blood soaked her fingertips, and she swept her fingertips across Kakashi's face, avoiding the edges of the mask. Kakashi felt his own blood smeared across his cheeks and dropped his gaze in shame. Shinobi honor was often stripped away, but this was too far, to be painted in his own blood! Kakashi lifted his chin and yanked his head away from Yasu's hands. Yasu grinned.
"You're so proud," she murmured. "Being degraded this much is unfamiliar to you. But then again, true pride can never be truly crushed."
Yasu slid her hands around Kakashi's body and slowly pulled everything away from his face. "No!" she said sharply, pressing her hand to his mouth. "Don't even go there."
Kakashi made one last effort to get away, trying to stretch himself out, and recoil in a slightly different position than before. But Yasu saw right through his plan of escape, and pulled him closer.
Before he knew what was happening, Kakashi was being kissed.
The mask was gone, and Yasu was kissing him full on the mouth. Kakashi, shocked tried to pull away, but Yasu was having none of it and forced him to endure the kiss. Kakashi sighed and held relatively still.
Yasu finally released him, breathless.
"You're absolutely wonderful," she murmured, sliding the mask back up over the bridge of Kakashi's nose. "And so beautiful."
Kakashi, unsure of how to take that, simply sat, trying to absorb the shock. Yasu smirked.
"You are mine. Don't you ever forget it."
OOOOOOOOO
Kakashi knew who it was shaking him awake. That was exactly why he didn't want to wake up.
"Get up already," Itachi muttered, shaking him harder. Kakashi sighed.
"What?"
he grumbled, unhappy to be disturbed. "What is it that is so
desperate that you can't even let me sleep?"
"Yasu wants
you."
Kakashi fell back and turned onto his stomach, pressing his face to the damp concrete he was chained to. "Then forget it."
"Noooooo," Itachi said sourly, pulling Kakashi into a sitting position. He yanked the chains off Kakashi's wrists and ankles, hurling them aside and holding Kakashi at the same time. "And if you don't I will make you-"
"Yeah right," Kakashi said, trying to collapse again. "That's what they all say."
"What's different about me?" Itachi growled.
"You're girlier than them all."
Itachi sighed. "If I wasn't under orders, I would really hurt you."
"Sure you would," Kakashi said sarcastically. "Yasu would torture you to death."
"And maybe that's not so bad," Itachi muttered. Kakashi certainly knew how to try his patience! Itachi decisively set his face into stone and placed his hand son Kakashi's hips. "Let's go brat," he said hardly, picking up Kakashi's body. Kakashi defiantly twisted until Itachi's hands were around his lower back. Itachi adjusted to the shift immediately, moving one of his hands to support Kakashi's shoulders and tightening the other in the small of Kakashi's back.
"Don't you dare fight me," Itachi growled, pressing Kakashi to his own body. "You know how I'll punish you."
Kakashi began to shrink away even more, going to himself in hopes of putting a few inches between him and Itachi. He felt Itachi tighten his grip on Kakashi even more, and tried to quiet.
"Well, at least you're smart," Itachi sighed.
Kakashi exhaled, almost submissively, silver hair falling onto Itachi's chest as he let his head fall. "You want to kill me, don't you?"
"You're afraid, aren't you?"
Itachi almost felt sorry for Kakashi; he lived in constant fear. But once Yasu was done with him, he wouldn't have to fear. He would be more powerful than ever, and all he had to do was accept a kiss from Yasu.
The Slave Curse was like that: a mere kiss. It symbolized the bond between lovers, one as master, the other submitting to the first's will. As soon as the victim fully accepted it, they would be under Yasu's complete control. All Yasu had to do was mix a drop of her blood with her victim's, usually by cutting both the victim's and the sealer's palms and pressing them together. The second the two bloods touched, the seal was complete. A tattoo-like seal would appear on the victim's palm, and, like Orochimaru's curse seal, when activated, the seal would give the victim unimaginable power. But of course, being under Yasu's control Kakashi could never really use it for himself.
Yasu looked up from her book as Itachi entered, dragging a reluctant and tired Kakashi along with him.
"Finally!" Yasu exclaimed, jumping up. She took Kakashi from Itachi and held him against her body. "I was beginning to think he was hurting you."
"He was," Kakashi muttered under his breath.
"Come here," Yasu murmured, sliding her hands around Kakashi's waist. The jounin pushed her away.
"How about no?"
Yasu smiled. "You're so defiant," she said quietly. "Why won't you submit to me? Why won't you just give in? You know it's me you love-why not give me your soul, since I already have it?"
Kakashi gave her a glare that would cut through stone, Sharingan blazing. "You don't possess me, in any way. I do not love you, at all. You already know that."
Yasu shrugged. "Suit yourself." Itachi's eyes flickered back and forth between the pair. He realized that in a battle of wills he might have to interfere. Yasu was outrageously stubborn, but Kakashi was probably equally as stubborn. Yasu would probably have to wear Kakashi down, and then try the sealing. If he fought back, it would be hazardous to all of them.
Yasu leaned forward, holding Kakashi's head still with one hand and pulling down his mask with the other.
Aw, crap! She's going for it! Itachi glanced back and forth frantically. Crap, Yasu! It's too soon! Unless she thinks someone's here…
"Yasu! Watch out!"
Several kunai burst out of nowhere, flying straight at Yasu's head. Yasu pulled back from Kakashi, startled. She made a hard decision fast; she pushed Kakashi to the floor, out of the way, and dove the other way.
"Itachi!" she called as she landed. The carpet scraped along her elbows as she slid back, and Yasu could feel a rug burn surface on her skin. "Don't let him get to her!"
Itachi lunged at Kakashi, trying to get a hold of him before the shock wore off. Then he would-
"Agh!!"
Itachi barely had time to react before a foot was thrown across his face. Mazaka! She couldn't have moved that fast! Unless…no way! There are two of them! Oh, we are so screwed…
Tsunade was crouched over Kakashi, poised to kick Itachi again. The wild, feral look in her eyes reminded Itachi vaguely of Kakashi, and it told him that Tsunade would defend him with her life. Her arms were positioned on either side of Kakashi's shoulders, and her right leg hovered in the air, in the same position she had been in when she kicked Itachi. Her left leg was planted firmly to Kakashi's left. Slowly lowering her leg she sat back and slid her arms around Kakashi and picked him up.
"I missed you," she murmured. "Ruika did too."
Kakashi looked to the doorway, then the window. The door was wide open, and Ruika was standing in it. The window had been shattered, and shards of glass lying everywhere. A thin line of blood ran down Tsunade's face from where the glass had cut her, but the look in her eyes was still gentle as she reached down and touched Kakashi's face.
"You wanna come home?"
Kakashi nodded and pressed his face to Tsunade's shoulder. "Please."
"Tsunade! Down!"
Tsunade looked up- a second too late.
Yasu seized Kakashi's shoulders, yanking him up towards her body. Kakashi felt Yasu's sharp fingernails pierce his skin and he yelped with pain and surprise. He felt Yasu shove the mask away from his face and kiss him with a lust Kakashi had only ever seen before in Itachi's eyes. He tried desperately to squirm out of her grasp, and he could feel his lips begin to bruise under Yasu.
"Come on, Kakashi, fight her!" Tsunade cried, jumping up and running for Kakashi. Itachi blocked her, but that left Ruika unguarded. Itachi swore harshly and shoved at Tsunade, and, while she was down, he headed for Ruika. "Don't let her touch you! As long as you fight her, the curse won't work! But the second you stop resisting, we can't help you!"
Yasu took Kakashi's head in her grasp and held him still as she thrust her tongue into his mouth, trying to gain control over him. Kakashi began to panic; he fought even more viciously against Yasu as she reached for one of the open cuts on Kakashi's back. The crescent-moon shaped wounds ached and stung as blood rose to the surface. Kakashi continued to fight, though. He trusted that Tsunade would help him.
Kakashi felt someone take his shoulders from behind and gently pull him back, trying to ease him off of Yasu. Kakashi bit down hard on Yasu's tongue, chasing her out of his mouth. Yasu grabbed at Kakashi one last time, taking one last chance wit him.
Ruika charged, raised her leg, kicked Yasu hard in the head-
Yasu cried out in surprise and pain as she fell to the floor, unconscious. Her grip on Kakashi was lost, and Tsunade took full advantage of the opportunity. She pulled Kakashi into her chest and rolled on top of him to protect him from the kunai that Itachi had just thrown in desperation. Pain stabbed through her hand as the kunai plunged through her palm. But it hadn't hit anything remotely vital, and, more importantly it had not hit Kakashi. Tsunade yanked the blade out of her hand and threw it aside with a loud clang. Her hands formed the sign of the tiger, and in a split second, she disappeared in a spectacular explosion of smoke.
A/N: Sorry this is so late. I had trouble keeping Kakashi in character, and Tsunade was kind of bugging me too. I like a submissive Kakashi since it's so rare and so cute, and this was the perfect situation to put it in. I had to try hard to keep him in character. Soooo…Thank you everyone who reviewed, and the next chapter should come a lot faster since I already have the general storyline planned out. Thanks again:)
