AN: So this here is the start of me returning back to 2 chapters of this story a week so enjoy this fact.
Really. Once it comes to April, it's back to once a Week because of Camp National Novel Writing Month and then July for the next round. Hopefully I'll have something done after this story is done.
I should have something actually. Maybe just a short 16 story though since I'm trying to keep my mini's under 15 chapters.
I know that I didn't post anything last week but I was alternating between being amazingly sick, amazingly busy, and in amazing amounts of pain. Literally, had to refill my prescriptions which is odd for me.
And yesterday was spent sleeping. Damn freezing weather and snowbirds! My issues are making me have a bad week. I'm sitting here with my blue Christmas lights, I don't want to see actual light that much!
I'm hoping to get back into a schedule from now on though.
Anyways! Enjoy!
*~*~*~*
Staring at the rather broad Jounin that stood in the living room before him, Iruka sighed and rubbed at his face in annoyance. “Gai-san,” he started. He ended up being blinded by a beaming smile aimed at him from the other man. Another sigh escaped him as he shot a glare at the closed bedroom door of Naruto’s room in jealousy. The other Chunin had run into his bedroom the moment that Gai had arrived at their shared apartment. “You do realize that you were supposed to meet us at the gate yes? Not here.”
“Of course, Umino-san, but I wished to extend my help to my youthful comrades in the moving,” Gai boomed.
Iruka silently groaned, his fingers rubbing at his temples, already feeling his eyebrows twitch. “Gai-san, I can already tell you that outside of our kitchen supplies and beds, everything in the apartment is a part of it, and I am keeping this apartment for after this is dealt with. Our things have, for the most part, been put into sealing scrolls to transport,” he stated. Gai frowned down at him. “We did tell you that we were already prepared to move and to meet you where we told you to wait.”
“Umino-san, I have to admit that I did not only wish to help you with your packing, but I also wished to discuss where we are going,” Gai stated. He looked down at the blank faced Chunin. He wondered just when the normally sweet male before him had perfected such a face before he forcibly reminded himself that Iruka was a shinobi just as he was, and a good one to.
“I take it that Morino-san and Hokage-sama did tell you just where we are going to be staying, correct?” Iruka asked him, tilting his head. Gai nodded in response. “And you have signed the needed blood contract, knowing full well what you are learning is sealed and signed?”
In return, Gai simply pulled up his left sleeve to expose the muscled expanse of his arm. On the tanned skin was a small red swirl that had a blood drop hanging from the end of the swirl. It was faintly glowing with new power as it settled in connection to Gai’s chakra and blood. “He has explained that no matter what happens, I am to keep my mouth shut about anything and everything that I end up seeing in regards to you and yours,” he said.
Iruka nodded his head, smiling in approval. “Good. Now, what was it that you wanted to ask me?” he asked.
“Are you sure about moving into this house? From what I was able to figure out, there isn’t much known about it. Or the land that surrounds it,” Gai said, shifting on his feet. He frowned down at the other man.
Iruka smiled and shook his head, quite obviously amused by the man. “Gai-san, the land around the house is protected by specialized blood seals. They had been laid there by the original owner of the land and house and are still quite strong. I highly doubt that anyone will be getting onto the land without the express permission of Naruto. And even if they do, they will only be able to get onto certain parts of it,” he explained.
Naruto’s door finally opened up and the young Chunin stepped out of the room, a scroll that, when placed standing up, would come up to his hip, in his hand. He smiled at the two men. “Gai-san, my father was the one who placed most of the seals down around and on the property before I was thought of, much less born. He placed even more down when he married my mother. And then more when they discovered that I was to be born.” He huffed. “He had some very powerful enemies and because of the fact that I’m his son, so do I if they find out about me,” Naruto stated. “I promise you, the land is very well protected, Gai-san. This is why you were to meet us at the gate.”
“Apparently he was unsure about the protections that are on the land,” Iruka drawled as he shook his head with a smile. “Do you have everything that you need packed up and ready?” he asked.
“I have it all, Iruka-kun, no problems. Gai-san, are you ready to leave now?” Naruto asked, looking to the man. Gai nodded his head and watched as Iruka gathered his own scroll, the three men leaving the apartment. They quickly took to the rooftops, working their way over the wires and poles that had been put up for the use of the village’s nins.
Landing down next to a well built wall that faintly glowed with the seals etched into the stone, Gai blinked at it before he looked back and forth between the wall and Naruto. “There’s no actual gate?”
“There is actually, but it’s fairly well hidden,” Naruto replied. He shifted his scroll on his back as he reached down, pulling a kunai from his pouch. Slicing his hand, he cupped it so that he could catch the welling blood, reaching out to smear the blood onto the wall and seals, making them glow brightly. “Gai-san, if you could cut your hand to and smear your own blood on the seals, you will be keyed into the wardings. I added Iruka when I took over the care of the land as owner and started working as a desk Chunin. So all we need to do is you.”
Gai’s eyes took in the way that the seals pulsed, almost as if in time with a heartbeat before he pulled out his own kunai. Slicing his hand, he cupped it to and watched as his blood filled the palm of it before smearing it over the seals to. He felt them tap a bit into his chakra, tasting it for lack of better term. It was an odd feeling, and made him blink as he pulled his hand back, the seals glowing steadily and the blood pulled into them. Iruka made a considering noise and took Gai’s cut hand into his own, using a bandage from one of his many pockets to clean the blood off
“There, all done,” Iruka said as he used the bit of medical jutsu that he knew to heal the wound, leaving behind a very slim scar on Gai’s hand. “Now that you’re keyed in, take a look at the wall.”
Gai raised an eyebrow at him and looked from his hand that he had been staring at to looking to where the wall was. Naruto was smirking at him, his hand on the simple gate and the metal woven together to look much like bricks, the seals still on it. “What?” he breathed.
“Blood genjutsu. The seals are interwoven to project the sight of a wall to all those who aren’t a part of the wardings. The top of the gate is actually flat so that those running along the wall won’t really notice,” Naruto told him as he pointed to the top of the gate. “Come on, the house is this way. I do suggest that you stick to any and all paths of the land, okay?”
“I can do that,” Gai said, stepping through the gate with the two. Iruka closed the door behind him as they stood on the entry path. Now that he was keyed into the wards, the Jounin could see the shimmer of the genjutsu as it went up once more after them. “Your father was much better at seals then is thought, wasn’t he?” he asked, looking to Naruto as some of the puzzle came together.
Naruto smiled at that and nodded. “Oh yes, he was. He learned how to carve into all sorts of material just so that he could use them to build his seals and make sure that they would stick. He actually carved marble into seals and planted them in the wall after he hollows out some of the stones. They keep things settled and it’s highly unlikely that they’ll ever wear away in their protective casings,” he explained as they strolled down the path towards his house.
“And should the wall ever be attacked?” Gai asked, taking in the woods around them as they walked. He could tell that there were several animals up in the trees, watching them, and wondered what animals the land had on it.
“Stabilizing seals are buried under all of the corners of the wall,” Naruto told him, smiling softly as they stepped into the clearing. In the middle of it stood the house that they would be living in for the foreseeable future. It wasn’t anything amazing, just a two story structure that looked as if it had quite a bit of square footage to it. Which was a good thing considering that both Naruto and Iruka preferred their privacy when it came to some things. “Come on, you two. Let’s head inside.”
Iruka smiled at the staring Gai as he followed after Naruto, walking up the four steps that lead onto the wrap around, enclosed porch. Following after the two, Gai closed the screen door and watched as the seals around it briefly flared before they once more disappeared. “He was very, very good,” he breathed out admiringly. Naruto sent a smirk over his shoulder as he ran a finger over one panel in the door.
Once more, seals flared to life before a click followed it, allowing Naruto to open the door for them. “Usually we just use the lock on the house, but with everything that is going on, it’s best to use the seals. You’ll also be able to disarm the seals on the doors and gates now that you’ve been keyed into them, but they will tell when you come and go,” he warned the Jounin as they stepped into the front hall.
From where he was standing, Gai could see that the house was sprawling, open and done in simple styles. But under the prettiness of the hardwood floors and the light blue paint job with decorative white trim, he could feel the seals as they assessed him and found him to be who he was. Gai smirked at Naruto, Iruka staring up at him, the scarred Chunin looking as if he was putting something together. Naruto simply smiled smugly at the both of them.
“I think that this house is a good place to be safe. Show me where I will be sleeping?” Gai asked them, smiling brightly but not as badly as he usually did.
Iruka shot an amused looking Naruto a dark glare for not warning him about Gai, before he nodded and smiled. “Come along, Gai-san. We do have to unpack so I might as well show you to your room on the way to my own.”
