The Morning After

Chapter 10

By corpsedollie

"So is there any new news on the attack in one of the dark alleyways?" one of the Chouji asked a lazy Kakashi as he was almost was falling asleep at his desk with his Icha-icha books openly displayed on his chest for everybody to see.

"Nah. Nothing thus far. Just the same info as what the press has aswell" Kakashi moved to sit by his desk again "Besides. I am waiting for Shikimaru to come in. Where is he by the way?"

The man scratched his head thinking "Mm, most probably with that blond again"

Kakashi's lone eye wandered to the open window, the sky was clear with no cloud in site.

A clear blue sky? No wonder Shikimaru was not in today. He always liked looking at all the drifting white ball of fluff as they passed by their window.

As if one que, the office door swung open. Shikimaru stood there smoking his usual cigarette of the day.

"Where the hell have you been" Chouji demanded as he was sitting behind his desk opening a new file.

Shikimaru didn't immediately answer as he just moved to the coffee table and poured himself cup of black coffee. Taking a big sip. He lazily moved to his desk to sit down "This girl, she takes all my time"

"Anyways, we just got a call in that somebody saw a sighting of a grizzly bear roaming around in there yard. At first I thought it was a prank, but then realized that the woman who phoned in was dead serious. The only part that I don't get about the conversation is that, grizzly bears don't just roam around in Tokyo like they would in other countries. So I thought that we could go check it out. Maybe its the linked to the torn apart bodies that we have found" Chouji said.

"Well. This might be the clue that we have looked for" Kakashi said as he tossed his green book aside and grabbed his car keys and notepad.

...^V^...

"Where the hell were you last night, forehead. It seems like you have a tendency to disappear without a trace more often than the wind" Ino said tapping the daydreaming pinkette on her not so large forehead anymore.

"I saw him again" she said with a toothy smile.

"Him?" Ino questioned but after a few seconds clicked, blue eyes widened in curiosity "Him. Him"

"What happened? You were gone for a long time, or let me rephrase that. You were gone for most of the night. TELL ME EVERYTHING" Ino pulled in the patient's chair that she was sitting in, placing her chin on her palms to support her face. Waiting for Sakura to tell her the story.

"Well. Nothing happened really" Sakura said with an innocent tease in her smile.

"Nothing!? The hicky on your neck and the smile on your face seems to tell a different story"

"Fiiiiiinnnnne." Sakura gave up "How about I tell you everything tonight. You bring the wine and I will bring the food"

"Aaaahhh. Are you that scared to tell me? I really want to know. Besides me and Shiki-kun has something on tonight"

Sakura raised a questioning pink eye brow at the blonde. She was already at a nickname bases with this guy. Shiki-kun. Inner laughed at the sound of this.

"Fine. I will cancel with him only for you, since you are my best friend" Ino said closing her eyes.

And with a hug and kiss good-bye, Ino left Sakura to go do her work as a florist and let Sakura do her work as being a medic. Not long after Ino left, a white-haired man popped his head into the frame of the door.

"Jiraiya-sama. I see its time for another check up again. But haven't we just done a check up on you about a week ago" Sakura asked as she checked through the records of the old man for the time he was with her last.

"Yes. A week ago and it was for something different. Today, I feel a bit sore here on my stomach" the man indicated with a flat hand around his mid section including his genitals.

Sakura pinched the bridge of her nose, trying to calm her self down. This old man loved taking chances with her. And it almost felt to her like it wa almost once a week's story now.

"Okay. Come lie down here for my." Sakura said as she stood up from her desk and taking of her stethoscope from around her neck.

Within a matter of split-seconds Jiraiya took of his pants and sat on the bed to move into lying down.

Sakura's breath caught in her throat. Sakura shield her eyes with Jiraiya's paper work "Please. Jiraiya-sama. Pull up your pants. That is not where your stomach lies"

...^v^...

Late afternoon. A silver car pulled up in the drive way of an old house with wooden walls. The yard pretty much not maintained had dying leafs covering all over the yard. Kakashi and Shikimaru stepped out of the silver car. The dead leafs crackling under their feet as they moved to the porch that followed to the to the front door.

Kakashi's gloved hand knocked on the door as Shikimaru's eyes scanned the porch. Some old couches on the porch with dusty dirty blankets covered.

A sound of movement caught the men's attention as they waited for the recipient to open the door. A few seconds passed before the door opened up with a creak. Both men looked at each other before having their eyes back to the woman again.

"Yes?" the woman spoke with a hoarse voice, that seemed best suited with her. Grey hair standing in all directions and her face wrinkled with years of being worn.

"Yo" Kakashi said waving "Somebody phoned us from a number giving us this address"

The woman's eyes widened as she knew exactly what Kakashi was talking about. Before taking down the latch of the door and unlocking the iron gate between her and the two men. She opened her door for the two men to come in "Please. Please. Come in" the woman said.

They hesitated before entering the house, that smelled well of cats and the marking of their territory. The place was rather dirty and stacked to the walls with boxes. Dust gather on all place that should be a surface.

"Please come with me" the old woman led the men to her sad excuse of a lounge. The woman sat down on what seemed to be her usual chair before the Shikimaru and Kakashi sat on a huge dusty couch opposite the woman.

"So Ma'am. You phoned us about a bear sighting?" Shikimaru asked as he pulled out his notebook.

"Bear?" the woman chuckled, her fat ginger cat jumping on her lap when the woman started stroking the cat's head "That was no bear. I just was not going to reveal the information over the phone like that"

"If it was not a bear, what was it then" Kakashi asked as Shikimaru wrote down some notes in his notepad.

The woman looked at the men, a silence grew between them where she seemed almost like she was contemplating in telling them, without her looking psycho. Deciding against the latter. The woman stood up, shooing her cat of off her lap and moved to a really old and dusty book-case. She pulled out one of the biggest and oldest books that almost seemed to heavy to carry for her.

Moving as swiftly as her old body could carry her, she placed the huge oversized book on the coffee table with a loud thud. Dust moving aside from the book as she opened it and moved to the page were the book mark is.

Kakashi and Shikimaru observed as the woman turned the book to their direction for easier reading. The woman placed a wrinkled and bony finger on the page it was open revealing a monster.

That's where both men's eyes widened in a mix of emotions. Disbelief being the main one.

"Lycans?" Kakashi asked before chuckling, now this seemed a bit farfetched.

"Yes. Lycans, my dear. I know what I saw and I saw a monster that was neither human nor animal" The woman's voice was more angry this time.

Shikimaru pulled the book closer to him, reading the description of the supposing creƤture that the woman has seen.

"Lycans are a second breed of werewolves. Once normal humans who were infected by the first-born Lycan or another of his victim, they are unlike the first breed in retaining their human intelligence and personalities while transformed taking human forms"

Shikimaru observed the drawing of the creature, his fingers tracing the art. A creature resembling something of a wolf but has the ability standing on its hind legs. Fur covering most of it body, like it would a wolf. The face of the creature had shortish snout, not as long as what a wolf would have, with pointy ears.

"This creature seems almost unreal" Shikimaru said.

...^V^...

"Finally!" Sakura said as the clock striked 6 o'clock "This day couldn't have been any longer"

"Yes, I was looking forward to today ending. Tonight is a whole other story though" Moegie said as she was packing away the last files

"Ah! You have a date tonight?" Sakura asked with a smile.

Moegie chuckled before turning to Sakura "Yes. I have a date tonight. This really cute guy named Konohamaru asked me on a date. Did I mention he is really cute?" a blush formed on Moegie's cheeks

"Eh? So Moegie finally found a cute guy worth dating" Sakura asked. Both woman now walking out of the practise

" . Yes. Moegie has found someone that's not an idiot"

Both woman laughed before greeting each other good-bye a going to their homes.

.^v^.

"So tell me everything! And don't leave out anything, or so help me God!" Ino said as she poured some wine for the both of them, handing Sakura her glass before sitting next to Sakura. Wide blue eyes waiting for the story.

"He was the perfect gentleman. You know last night after going to the club, I decided to go outside and just rest after our long dancing session. And he was there. He surprised me even in the state that I was in" Sakura indicated with her fingers a drinking sign "We went to his home. Which was enormous by the way. Introduced me to his mother. But then after that he had a picnic for me and him. And well the rest is history"

Ino looked at her friend in shock and horror. "No. No. No. The story can't end like that! What do you mean history? Are you still a virgin or is your virginity history? Details, forehead! Details! And all of them!" Ino took a big sip of her wine.

Sakura contemplated before answering "No. I am still a virgin, He didn't carry on"

Ino stayed silent for a moment. A moment where it seemed like she was thinking. She took a sip of wine before answering "Well. I am not a virgin anymore. Shikimaru was my first"

Sakura was half taken aback and shocked at the news. Not the fact that she is not a virgin anymore but the fact that he was her first. She always thought that Ino lost her virginity a long time ago. Since she was very open and flirtatious woman when it came to men.

"Wow. I don't know what to say" Sakura said as she really did not know what to say "Congratulations, I guess"

Ino looked at her friend with a dead glare before laughing. "Well. I just knew he was the one"

...^v^...

A/N: Yes. Not a very interesting chapter. Also more loose ends that had to be tide so it becomes more clear to the reader what is going one.

I was so hoping that this fanfiction would've hit 100 review before the Chapter 10. But I see it won't be possible. Still. I am still going to continue since my long life dream is to have fiction well worth over 100 reviews.

The question I asked on which Akatsuki member you guys would like to see in this story ended on Deidar getting two votes and the rest just ones. So I guess Deidara will make an appearance then.
