She looked at Pakkun and decided to ask one last question as she snapped the book closed. "When is he going into heat?" She asked knowing that he could tell her a definate time line. Pakkun looked at her, a bored look on his furry little face while he once again debated on telling her the truth. He already knew what she was planning to do since he had let it slip that she could be the one to relieve Kakashi when he went into heat. He also knew that she had'nt liked that idea one little bit. Maybe because of the way he had phrased his words. But the thought of being used for her body had obviously upset her quite a bit.

So he lied again. "Two weeks." He said with a sigh. Kakashi had a few days at the most, one or two at the least before he went into heat. His scent was already changing, becomeing more woodsy and wild smelling than he already was. Soon his body tempiture would spike from his normal 98.9 degrees to 103.5 and he would find it difficult to get comfortable.

Gai waded out of the icy cold water feeling completely refreshed and sat down on a large rock a few feet away to sun himself dry and glanced at Kakashi, who was sitting nose deep in the cold water, unmoving. "Kakashi, if you dont take a breath then you'll drown." And I'll have to give you CPR. Gai thought with an amused grin as the silver haired nin turned his head and glared at him for a second before turning his head back to it's original position and slipped his head under the water again for what seemed like the hundreth time in the past thirty seven minutes. Kakashi had been acting strangely since they left the village a few hours ago.

He had been snapping irritably, and had been unable to focus on his task, but he had actually callapsed at one point, something that he never did unlesss he was mortally wounded or had used up too much chakra. To say that Gai was worried would be an understatment. He had wanted to take Kakashi back to the village and have him looked over by a trained profesional at the local hospital, but the copy nin had had other ideas and had stripped off his clothes and threw himself into the first frigid body of water he could find, that had been over two hours ago.

Kakashi let his head break the surface of the water with a soft sigh, gods that felt good, but it didn't help him for long. His body felt like it was on fire, his skin felt like it was too tight, there was a strange burning sensation in his gut, and his groin...he could'nt seem to get rid of the hard on he had had since leaving the bathroom in the Tower after summoning Pakkun. He had been walking about with a woody while in Gai's presence.

He shuddered, he hated to know what Gai would think, being the odd person that he was he might think that he had been the reason for Kakashi's current condition and would try to assist him in making it go away in his own akward and bumbling way. Something that the silver haired man wanted to avoid at all costs if he wanted to continue living his semi normal existance in the village.

"Kakashi, are you sure that your alright?" Gai called from the rock he was sitting on. Kakashi had to fight back the urge to jump up out of the water, march over to him and throttle the nosy man. So instead he settled for glareing at him again. Could'nt he go off somewhere and get lost for an hour or two while Kakashi took care of his problem?

"Kakshi, if you aren't out of the water in another five minutes I'm going to drag you back to the village naked and give you to Ibiki to play with." Gai said warningly and nearly laughed when Kakshi jumped to his feet and ran over to the nearest artical of clothing and snatched it up off of the ground and gave him a mean look as he quickly turned his back to him and shoved one leg into his pants soon followed by the other.

Gai watched the smooth skin of his back flex as he pulled his pants up into place around his hips, and was about to say something else to the silver haired man, simply to annoy him when he saw something strange happen to Kakashi's back. It looked like his spine was trying to tear free of his skin or something before it started to twist around in a snake like fashion, alarming Gai enough to jump up and grab Kakashi as the man was trying to pull on his shirt.

Kakashi looked at Gai with a funny expression on his face. What the hell was his problem now? He was about to tell Gai to let him go or he would be spending the next month in the hospital, but then he noticed how pale the man's face was. Was he starting to feel sick too? "Kakashi, what was that?"

Kakashi blinked at him. "What was what, Gai?"

"Your back, it looked like your spine was trying to saw its way out from under your skin, then it started twisting and shit like a damn snake!" Uh-huh.

"Gai, did you eat some weird shrooms again?" Gai shook his head no. Kakashi gave him an yeah-I-believe-you look and shrugged his hand off of his shoulder.

It was around four in the evening when Gai and Kakashi waltzed into Uzu's office to brief her on the sucess of their mission. And the second Kakashi stepped through the door Uzu's entire focus was on him, her stomach suddenly started cramping as if she were hungry, and her tempiture spiked, she felt breathless, and weak. Dear god that stupid fucking fur ball had managed to lie to her and she had'nt even realised it.

Kakashi did'nt have two weeks before he went into heat. He was already half way there, and damn her, she was reponding to him. She didn't even bother listening ot them as they spoke about the stupid mission that she had sent them on, she was too busy trying not to give herself away to Kakashi. The moment he smelled her desire to couple with him they would both be fucked, literally. And poor Gai would get one hell of a show since niether of them would be able to stop themselves.

"Th-Thank you gentlemen, you can collect your pay and call it a day." She said as she started to stand up and immediatly regreated her decision to stand when her legs almost gave away on her, she managed to keep herself from falling to the floor by flattening her hands on the desk and waited for a second as Gai and Kakashi both studied her. One out of concern. And the other with a preditory look on his face. Crap.
