It had been a week since they had left Konoha and Ichigo was so bored. Nothing had happen and no one would let him do anything. It was like he was just there to look pretty. It was also getting annoying. Finally having enough of just sitting around, Ichigo walks up to Sakumo and looks him straight in the eye.
"Just give me something to do. Anything, I need to do something." He's not really shouting but his voice was near it.
Not sure on what he can do, but thinking what could it hurt for a little sparring, Sakumo pointed to the right side of camp and leads Ichigo past the tree line to were Kakashi was busy throwing kunai at a tree. Taking a stick and drawing a circle before stepping out, he looks between his son and the orange hair teen.
"Alright, I want the two of you to spar. Only taijutsu no weapons, is that clear."
Getting a nod from both boys as they enter the circle, each took a fighting stance. Looking at each boy before nodding Sakumo raised his hand then chopped it down.
"Start!"
Kakashi darted forward sending a kick to Ichigos stomach before feinting to his left bringing up his arm aiming for the teen's throat. Seeing this Ichigo jumps back brings up his arms crossing them in front of his neck and face. Taking the brunt of the hit Ichigo allows himself to fall back only to right himself then swung a right hook followed by a knee to the gut. He misses, and leaves himself open to a fist to the right side. But not before landing his own fist to the Kakashi's chin. Both hits make the boys stumble back. Sizing each other up its Ichigo that runs straight at Kakashi bringing his left leg up before spinning around and back kicking the boy in the side of the head. Kakashi drops down feeling the breeze from Ichigos kick and brings his hand to a point then jabbing it in Ichigos gut causing the teen to double over in pain. Thinking that he had won Kakashi stands up readying another jab when Ichigo jumps in close and grabs both of Kakashi's arms and having his face meet the teen's knee. Flipping back using the momentum from Ichigos strike Kakashi lands a good distance away but is surprised when Ichigo is there sending another punch to his chest then his stomach before knocking him out of the ring.
Getting back up to strike at the grinning teen Kakashi is stop by his father.
"That's enough for today, we need to get back to camp." He states before looking at Ichigo, "You need to check in with head servant so your sparing sessions go send them all into a cationic state. Remember you're supposed to be a noble's heir and son so a little bit of fighting in normal but you have to tell them when you're doing it. Okay?"
"Ok, thanks I wasn't sure what I would've done or caused if I couldn't find anything to do." Smiling at both before turning back to camp where shouts for him had started to reach the clearing he was in.
Watching the teen leave and making sure he arrived back in the hands of the now frantic servants Sakumo turned to his son.
"Well?" he said in an amused tone.
"Not bad, I guess, I was holding back." Came a not fake bored tone.
"Considering that his style is more street fighting then our own or what the academy taught, I have to give him credit for keeping up with you and landing that last punch." He said as he started for the camp waving his son to follow him.
"I was holding back next time I'll beat him." Kakashi whispered.
A faint smile spread on Sakumo's face at the thought that someone had got his son interest, 'maybe these sparring sessions were a good idea, and it keeps Ichigo content and Kakashi sharp.' Arriving in camp to the sight of Ichigo donning Kaien's mask, hardly giving either of them a second look as he sits looking truly bored, before stating that he'll be in the wagon taking a nap and to wake him when it's time to eat. Shaking his head he has to say that someone had taught Ichigo well, he was acting like the coldest of nobles that he has come across. Looking back at his son and seeing the what-the-fuck like look on his face, Sakumo grabs his shoulder and steers him to the other side of camp.
"Let's check the perimeter I'll go left you go right. Ok" Seeing the nod they both vanished into the trees.
oOooOooOo
For the first time in a long while and it's been a very long time since then, that Jiraiya has found a person that he just wants to kill off just from talking too damn much. And from the looks of Minato's hand fisting every now and then he can tell that the blonde's at his wits end.
"…and then he was like-
Trying to drown out the talking buffoon, Jiraiya instead tries to put his attention on something else, something that has been bugging him for a while now.
"Minato." He quietly calls, "What are you going to do if Ichigo wants to go back home or if his family or teachers come for him?"
Seeing that the blond was thinking, he then turns back to make sure that the jabbering fool is still with them, it wouldn't do to have a nobles son go missing during the trip Jiraiya could care less to whatever happens after they drop him off to the soldiers from the nobles personal guard. 'Why the hell did he need us then?' he thought in frustration, sighing he looks back at his former student.
"Well?"
"I'd fight them and I give Ichigo a reason not to want to go back." He says causing a sweat drop from his sensei.
He says it with that natural determination that Jiraiya can't seem to not believe in him, but he knows that if Ichigo wants to leave nothing will stop him.
"What if its Ichigo that you end up fighting?"
Smirking at the thought and what can come after Minato gives his sensei a side glance.
"Then I'll fight him, and win, then take him back to my home for punishment." He says with a lopsided grin.
Sighing that he can't get Minato to see that Ichigo needed to go back to his world, Jiraiya temporarily gives up for now. He instead focus on the road and their surroundings then checking on the chatter box behind them. Thinking of the many different ways he could silence the teen he forgo the thought for ways to make Minato spill about his alone time with Ichigo.
"So, is he a screamer?"
Looking not so surprised that Jiraiya asked that Minato gives him a cocked eyebrow before turning away the leaping a good distance from him.
"That's for me to know and you to never find out. I will not have you start using us as fodder for your books sensei."
"Aww don't be that way. Think of all the lovely ladies that would appreciate such works for their own fantasies, you cou-ump" finding his face now cover in mud Jiraiya sends Minato a glare.
"Shut up sensei or I'll have to inform the ladies of all your hiding places near their bathing and swimming spots." Minato says with a smile that promise death if Jiraiya step out of line.
Paling at the thought of getting his ass handed to him again by towel clad women and losing his research, Jiraiya wisely change the subject.
"Hey jabber jacks listen up." Getting the attention of their charge, "by sundown we will be at the rendezvous point so you need to keep quiet. Okay?"
Not really seeing the nod, but was enjoying the silence the rest of the trip went quickly and at sundown they happily dump their charge with the guards they were meeting. Now they had to wait for the other group to catch up.
"It'll take about one more week before they get here." Jiraiya pointed out.
"Yes, I'm aware."
"Good! I'm going to do some research while we wait and maybe enjoy the nightlife." He walks away laughing going on and on about this and that.
Not caring in the least on what he was saying but more on what he will have to clean up, Minato gave the gate one last look before heading to fine the local inn and making sure that Jiraiya got a different room so no fall out spills over onto him.
oOooOooOo
It started out a nice cool cloudy morning the camp fire cooking, people talking about this and that, Sakumo and Kakashi doing what ninja do and Ichigo following along. But what made it far from normal was the feeling of being watched. At first it was just his skin getting goosebumps then the feeling went to his skin crawling, it was almost like being watch by a hollow he couldn't see and Ichigo didn't like it one bit. Not one to sit back and wait, Ichigo thought it might be a good idea to talk to the shinobi that came with him. Trying to ignore the invisible eyes drilling into his back, he finds the father and son duo near the camp scanning the tree line.
"Sakumo, are we being followed?" he asked in a low whisper
Not surprised by the teen's bluntness and not taking his eyes away from his scan, Sakumo gave back the honest answer.
"Yes."
Ichigo only nodding before heading back to camp but no before secretly snatching one of the cooking knives and hiding it in his sleeve. Acting like he doesn't know anything out of the ordinary Ichigo tenses when the air gets heavy before somethings shoots out of the ground then explodes covering the camp area in a thick cloud of smoke that stings his eyes and throat.
He can hear steal meet steal and see the sparks from each impact, but what really got him was the ground changing into spikes and pits all on its own. Killing and entrapping any who got too close. Thinking it would be smart to stay where he was until he could see or until he got help, he doesn't notice the shadow behind him until he is grab. Reacting to the touch he swipes the hand with the hidden knife then bolting when it jerk back. Ichigo doesn't know that his eyes start to change, black creeps across white as his brown irises start to shine with specks of gold. The stress of not being in any position to help those who could not fight back was making his hollow powers come to the surface. It isn't until he's grab again, this time by his arm that he realizes that he could see better than before but the smoke hurts more as well, but not enough to totally blind him that he can't make out the gravity defining hair that belongs to Kakashi.
"Let's go." He yells as he drags the stun teen.
Stumbling over rocks, small hills, holes, and the fact that Kakashi is shorter then him; Had Ichigo nearly face planting on the many spikes and discarded weapons. The smoke that had his eyes burning now was affecting his throat and lungs making him give hacking coughs, which he tried to cover up. He has been in battles before, so he doesn't know why this one was making him so disoriented. It was like the ground was moving and he was standing still.
'Wait that is the ground moving.' he thought as his mind caught up.
Ichigo watched as the ground underneath them came up trying to encase them in what could be their tomb. Not thinking he snatches Kakashi up and jumps straight into the ever closing opening he does a last minute flash-step letting him land outside the hole as it closes with a snap before sinking into the ground.
'That's different.' He thinks as he continues to flash-step in a random direction, 'are these people more ninja? Where's Sakumo? Where I' am I going?' "Shit"
Stopping on a high tree branch, he lowers a dizzy Kakashi on the branch next to him. Thinking on his next move he suddenly dodges a shower of needles aim for him and the still down boy.
"Where did that come from?" he whisper to no one.
"Oh I missed." Came a smug male voice, "I was sure that nobles were too busy being stuck up bastards to learn how to protect themselves."
"Well the Shibas aren't normal by any standards, but we did get the brat." Another but female voice answer
Now realizing that they were right in that Kakashi had yet move, checking for a pulse and sighing in relief that the boy was still alive, Ichigo slowly pick him up and tried to flash-step again but a hacking cough racks his frame causing him to almost drop the boy.
"It seems that the poison smoke at least worked." The smug male said
"We'll just wait him out then. It won't take long before he drops too." The female said
Thinking quick, Ichigo rummages thru Kakashi's bag. His hand closing around something hoping that it would help, he flings it out before grabbing Kakashi and jumping away from the tree just as the thing he threw explodes, the force of the blast hitting them forcing them to the ground. Shaking off the daze it caused Ichigo lefts Kakashi on to his shoulder and starts to run but before he gets too far he falls his legs locking up and his breathing coming in short gasp. 'Shit this isn't good' he's on his hands and knees, 'I have to get us out of here' he falls his vison going dark as the laughter from the two voices reach him.
"Nice try, but not good enough."
"What do we do with the brat?"
"Keep him, he can be used as a hostage to keep this one in a more cooperating mood."
Before his vison goes completely black he's able to see the female roughly hoist Kakashi over her shoulder as he is yanked up by the male. Their headbands were different then Minatos and Sakumo's, sporting what he could see as hills. Their outfits consisting of tan and red.
"This one is worth a lot alive but if he doesn't play nice his little friend pays for it and who said that we can't make money off him."
Ichigo can just feel the lust rolling off the male before he feels a slight prick to his neck. His muscles relax making his head fall back as he finally goes unconscious. His very last coherent thought was Minato.
'Minato come find me.'
oOooOooOo
Shock, shock at the message that the little messenger frog gave. Minato was frozen his emotions going from shocked to anger to furious. They has just found out that the caravan that was supposed to be here was attack and both Ichigo and Kakashi were the only ones not accounted for. What made him furious was the ones that attack. Ninja from stone. The engery he got from his anger lasted him all the way to the area where Ichigo and Kakashi were last seen. Standing in the center was Sakumo holding a scrape of clothing and a leaf headband.
'How dare they. How dare they touch his Ichigo.'
Sakumo was no better, a bit cut up and burse but still able to fight he was ashamed that he allowed his son and Ichigo to get capture. He's brought out of his shame by being roughly pushed into the nearest wall with enough force to leave cracks.
"How could you allow him to get taken?" Minato hiss in anger
"In case you forgot Kakashi was with him and he's missing as well." Sakumo said in an anger calm voice
Stepping in before the glare off between the two ninja escalated, Jiraiya steps in between them gently pushing away from each other.
"Now isn't the time for this. We need to track them before we lose the trail." Looking at Sakumo then at Minato.
Minato tries to calm down he needed to think clearly he knows that they haven't gotten far and he hopes that the stone nin still think that Ichigo is Kaien so they would be still close by. But he knows that that's all wishful thinking.
'Even if they can reach them, there is no guarantee that Kakashi and Ichigo are still alive' shaking the thought out of his head, 'no don't think like that Ichigo wouldn't let them die.'
Sighing and for once feeling helpless at not knowing what to do, Minato looks to Jiraiya in hopes he already has a plan. He whips his head at the sound of Sakumo and a puff of smoke. His eyes light up at the small group of dogs that it reveals, he's happy when Sakumo gives them a piece of cloth and they scatter.
"Now we wait until one them comes back." Jiraiya says as he sits on a nearby rock.
It isn't long till one of the dogs that they start out to follow planning on the fly. With a silent promise that if Ichigo or/and Kakashi were hurt or worse there will be no survivors.
oOooOooOooOo
He's awake that much he can tell, he was also strung up by his hands his feet not even touching the ground. Kakashi was wrap up to the point that only his hair was showing and Ichigo wonder if he could breathe. First emotion was anger at himself and at the ones who kidnap them, second was calm as he tried to find a way out, third was excitement at the prospect of a fight, and fourth was worry for the boy next to him. Ichigo slowly, without notifying that he was awake, open his eyes to take in his surroundings seeing that there were only five people two on guard and three asleep, he started to fiddle with the ropes holding him. The process was antagonizing slow only stopping when one person shifted or a guard moved in close Ichigo tried not to give away to what he was doing. When he was finally free he grab on to the rope and slowly lower himself down making as little noise as possible before sliding over to Kakashi.
"Hey Kakashi." He whispers as he shakes the boy and only received a glare in return. "Just hang on I'm going to get us out."
Ichigo picks up the boy and creeps out of the campsite, he doesn't get far as the ground surges up and wraps several times around his legs making him fall but not letting go of Kakashi as he twist to land on his back.
"Well, well, well, look at what we have here." A male voice sneered
"Looks like he thought he could get away." Male number two chimed in.
"Oh well I guess that we have to punish him and our orders didn't say he had to be totally intact." Came the female voice.
Ichigo felt himself move and then restrained again by the two other male ninjas as Kakashi is thrown across the camp. He can see their faces now and of all them the three males stare at him with unbridle lust. The two females laugh as they start to strip him of his clothes by using their kunai only leaving him his pants and head wrap. Then they tie his hands again throwing the rope over a low branch just hanging him enough off the ground where he could still touch it but could not get any footholds.
" You see boy, we have been away from our village for so long getting little to no time in small towns or big villages, and we have needs that haven't been fulfilled and you're going to do that for the three of us while the women work on your little boy toy over there." He says with a sneer as he starts to grope Ichigos lower back running his hand along his spine.
[Attempted rape scene, it you don't like then please skip this.]
As the ninja behind him works on his back the other two start to remove his other bits of clothing. One shoves his hand down his pants to palm his length, then starts to squeeze and stroke it. The second male attacks his chest nipping and sucking his nipples before yanking his head down and latching onto his mouth trying to force his tough into Ichigos mouth.
"muuffphm"
"This bitch taste good can't wait to try the rest of ya."
Ichigo struggles pulling hard against the ropes that encircle his wrist and trying to kick out of the mounds of earth encasing his legs. But each attempt is stop by the press of cold metal against his throat and a whisper promise to pain to the other boy if he didn't stop. He doesn't relax nor gives up but becomes more animalistic as the one behind him yanks down his pants and thrust a finger into his entrance, making him jerk forward. The one who is stroking his length to wakefulness grabs it roughly before giving a sick smile. Descending on Ichigos now hard length ninja on kneeing takes it in his mouth and starts to suck. The other one up top wraps his arms around the teen holding him in place as his comrades get their fill.
Ichigo tries to keep every sound in his mouth and his reactions from showing, so far he's down very good about it. But the stone ninjas aren't stopping there.
"Don't let him cum. Find something to tie him off." The one behind him says.
The one on the ground lets Ichigos length go with a pop, he grins before disappearing back towards the campsite. Ichigo renews his struggles as the one behind him adds another finger and another, each enters him as painful as the last. None of the ninjas see the black spread across Ichigos eyes nor the white substance creeping over his face. They don't see the crazed smile growing, no they only see the body before them slacking as the one in the back bends the teen over and starts to line up. But before he thrust in he hears the scream of his fellow ninja and feel the splat of something wet hit his face. Backing away from the bent over teen, he wipes his face and stares open mouth at the giant hole in his comrade's torso. As the teen stands up the stone nin tries to make a run for it but his path is block by the one he had just tried to rape.
[ Attempted rape scene ends]
Ichigo stares at the red painting his hands he watches as his other prey try to run. Purring at the thrill of the chase he lets him only get so far before pouncing on the terrified man and gutting him like a fish. Licking the red blood dripping down his arm giving his masked face an even more crazed look Ichigo roars loudly, then runs up a tree as the third stone ninja comes back rope in hand. He pales at the site of his disembowel comrades the spot littered with organs and blood. He runs backwards then stops dead at the sound of purring. Thinking it a big cat that did this he takes several small bombs and senbons out scanning the area fearfully. But what confronts him is not a big cat, no, but a large lizard like being. Not realizing that this was the teen they had tried to rape moments before, he tosses the bombs and senbons then runs for cover.
The blast covers the area in smoke and when it cleared the creature was nowhere to be found. Satisfied that he kill it the surviving male rock nin heads back to camp not seeing the pair of glowing gold eyes watching his every move.
Upon reaching camp the male nin could see that his female counterparts had Just as tough time as the males did with their victim. But he little boy had a few things that the teen didn't. The women where cut up to hell black and blue and very frustrated. The boy was Just as tired his only remaining weapon hanging loosely in his hand. He winces when one of the females lands a punch with a sickening crack causing the boy to crumple to the ground. The action is followed by a very loud and very angry sound roar. Now realizing that he hadn't kill the beast he yells to the female to run, but he can't get a word out. Seeing the pale faces of his comrades he looks down to see an arm protruding from his chest. The arm is then jerk out of him as he falls to the ground dead.
Kakashi just has enough strength to keep his eyes open a bit longer and watches in horror as a creature with orange hair and a long white tail rampages thru the remaining stone ninjas. He lays stock still as the beast crawls close to him its face inches from his. He is surprised when the beast nuzzles him and purrs. Just as he loses his fight to stay awake he catches the beast saying one word.
"Cub"
Its voice sound like it was underwater but still human enough that Kakashi could think it was Ichigo, before his world goes dark he is lifted up and stars onto golden brown eyes as his own close.
oOooOooOo
As Minatos group is lead to the spot where Ichigos last scent was located, they come upon a gruesome scene. The small clearing was bath in red the bodies of what looked to be people were strung up into the trees and organs scatter all over. Minato was fighting to keep from throwing up.
"Looks like something or someone attack here." Jiraiya stating the obvious, "its best we move quickly."
Following the bloody trail to a small campsite, they stop at the edge and watch in fascinate horror at a lizard like being with orange hair curled around a burse and wide eyed Kakashi. Not really taking in the fact that Kakashi wasn't hurt or that Ichigo wasn't in the area, the three adults ready their weapons and spread out covering all points so that one could grab Kakashi while the other two keep the beast occupied. They stop when Kakashi waves and shakes his head franticly, his actions causing the creature to wake. It towers over the three ninjas but drops to all fours and crawls towards Minato. Jiraiya and Sakumo try to interfere but get a hiss and a swipe for their troubles. As it nears Minato it starts to purr loudly making the blond confuse, as it reaches him it nuzzles his neck.
"Mate." It purrs
Its then that Minato sees who it is. The orange hair, the underwater voice almost disguising the low tenor, and the fact the only one person calls him mate.
"Ichigo?"
It's confirmed that the beast is his lover when the sound of its name makes it purr even louder as it wraps its body around his.
"Protect cub, found mate." Ichigo only said a few words before he collapses onto the puzzled blond.
Cracking sounds fill the area, causing Minato to watch as a spider web of cracks spread across Ichigos body before falling away to reveal a tan and spikey hair teen. Relived that his lover was back to normal he picks him up and cradles him close.
"Minato what the hell happen to Ichigo?" Jiraiya asked
Sakumo wanting to know too but was busy with a still in shock Kakashi listen in. Jiraiya is waved off by Minato who points out that it might not be a great idea to stay long in this bloody clearing. Getting a nod from both men after a promise of an explanation they disappear in a swirl of leaves leaving the bloody clearing to nature.
Later, at a faraway inn Minato goes over everything that he knows and that's only what Ichigo had told him. Jiraiya looking grim rushes out muttering about sending a frog to the Hokage. Sakumo doesn't know what to say, he got Kakashi side of the story so he does the only thing he can think of. He walks over the prone teen rubs back a few errand strands of hair and quietly mutters a thank you before leaving to head back to his own room he shares with his son.
Minato isn't sure what awaits them back at the village, but if it threatens Ichigo he will gladly leave with the orangette and follow him back to his world. With that in mind Minato curls up and around the sleeping teen touching any exposed skin and latching onto his neck leaving his mark before he falls into a light sleep.
