iruka woke up a couple hours later, feeling much better than he had. glancing acrossed the room he saw kakashi reading his porn like always.

"can i have my scroll now?"

kakashi turned the page in his book and thought about it a moment before asking.

"why?"

frustrated iruka rubbed his forehead, this man could irritate him like no other.

"to work on it, its important kakashi."

glancing up to the chunin kakashi suddenly came up with an idea. iruka did not like the smile on the jounin's face, he'd seen it before.

"you can work on your scroll, if you answer some questions"

sighing, he figured if answering to the jounin's curiousity would allow him to work on the scroll so be it.

"alright fine."

kakashi fished out the scroll and tossed it to the chunin, iruka caught it with ease and unscrolled the document carefully. beginning to read he was a little surprised when kakashi started talking to him.

"does the hokage know about your ability?"

shaking his head he explained.

"no, never showed it to anyone but my teammates and sensei. there was never a reason to tell him. its quite common for people to have famliy traits"

"true, but did you ever consider it could put you in danger? orochimaru has shown interest in you joining him, he knows of your ability to infiltrate any place you choose, he could use your past together as a way to make you cooroporate."

iruka laughed a little, shaking his head at the idea.

"sensei might want me to join him, but he knows he cant count on me being sentimental towards him. he burned that bridge a long time ago."

frowning, kakashi left that for later.

"alright, then there's the fact that you could be helping with wave on an active team"

" who would decode the scrolls?"

" we have code breakers for that, sure having you do it is faster and more accurate, but its not impossible to have others do it."

sighing, he put the scroll down.

"what do you want kakashi?"

"i want to know why you wont consider it"

closing his eyes for a moment he collected himself.

"fine, you really want to know so badly i'll tell you why. the council doesnt trust me due to my connection with orochimaru, their just waiting for me to do something to allow them to lock me up or execute me for treason. its already been recorded that if i advanced in the ranks i wouldnt be allowed to have a genin team, they dont want the pupil of orochimaru teaching dark jutsus to kids. i would never be allowed higher than jounin and thats if they even consented to allowing me to take the test in the first place. with wave attacking i can guarentee im on their shit list right now reguardless of what information ibiki brought to them. i've known for a while now that its just not an option for me so i've contented myself with what they will allow me to do. then theirs the fact that if they found out what i could do with my kekkai genkai, they would demand that i find a wife and have children for future generations, that they would undoubtibly try and control. i have my reasons for not advancing kakashi surely you can understand not wanting to be a pawn in someones game"

kakashi was not a happy ninja, the council were blaming iruka for orochimaru's mistakes, saying that the bright and cheerful chunin who loved kids was really just a psycho waiting to happen. it was true that people found to have kekkai genkai's were told to sire children for the village, but he couldnt imagine why that would bother the chunin so much, he loved kids and he would make a great father, he could see that just in the way the chunin treated his students and naruto.

"i would have thought that having your own kids would be something you would want someday, being so good with them and all."

iruka smiled at the ninja. he might as well air it all out, kakashi was just going to continue to ask questions and he really didnt feel like trying to hide it from the ninja.

"i'd love to have kids, but its not an option because im gay."

kakashi just starred at the chunin

"that shouldnt stop you from having kids"

iruka just shook his head at the jounin, there really wasnt much he could do about it anyways, so why think about it

he was actually starting to like living with the man. even if his questions were a little invasive.

"so can i get back to my work now?"

kakashi nodded, and watched as iruka settled in to read the scroll. he'd learned alot about the chunin today and it only made him want to know more. resisting the urge to start asking more questions he let the chunin do his paperwork and settled back to continue reading. they ate an early dinner and iruka managed to finish the scroll. he fed mayonaka and called it an early night leaving kakashi alone in the living room. kakashi stayed up for a while just thinking of everything he had learned about the man. he couldnt help but feel sorry for iruka, the man felt trapped in the position he was in and all because of orochimaru and the council.

*******

the day started like any other for iruka and kakashi, iruka got up first showered and dressed before leaving for work, leaving kakashi with nothing to do until the chunin eventually came home. he managed to clean up the apartment and go grocery shopping before returning to read for a little bit, finally too bored to even read. kakashi decided to pay a visit to the hokage.

********

tsunade was filling out another stack of paperwork when there was a knock on the window, not even bothering to look she asked.

"what do you want brat"

kakashi hopped in and came to stand before the hokage.

"i was wondering some things and figured you of all people might know"

"is this about iruka?"

"yes"

"what is it now"

shuffling her papers she only spared the copy nin a glance before going through some more papers.

"do you know why the council hates iruka?"

this paused her movements. sighing she looked up to kakashi.

"he's kept far to much hidden over the years and like everything, secrets get spilled. he would have had an easier time of things if he would just tell them what he knows about things instead of hiding it until it comes to light another way. it only makes him look worse in their eyes."

kakashi nodded. he vaguely wondered if he should tell the hokage about iruka's kekkai genkai, instead he tried to move the conversation around that.

"did you know that he is more than capable of being a jounin"

the hokage raised an eyebrow, this was interesting.

"i had my suspisions, he was trained by orochimaru, i doubted that he didnt know enough to make the higher ranks."

"he could make higher ranks if given the opportunity"

puzzled the hokage asked.

"why wouldnt he be given the opportunity?"

"he said that the council would never allow it"

frowning, tsunade muttered about nosey old geezers making kakashi smile.

"does he want to reach a higher rank?"

"hes scared of the council, i think they might have threatened him with something"

putting her face in her hand she asked.

"like what?"

"his future here"

the hokage leaned back in her chair, reaching for her cup of sake she thought about it.

"im guessing you tested him?"

"we trained together"

"how'd he do?"

"he won"

she spit out her sake, causing kakashi to take a step back.

"he what?"

"he won"

"how"

"by fighting"

the woman snorted at him before asking him to clarify.

"he has many secrets that im not sure he would appreciate me spilling"

that intriqued the woman.

"im guessing their relavant to our current conversation"

kakashi nodded his head.

"alright, so you two trained together and somehow he managed to win against you. are these abilities something that could be used against the village"

well damn, he hadnt wanted to imply that he was going to hurt anyone.

"if he chose to fight yes, but he didnt win because he showed force, he thought about every move he made and carefully planned it out. after he had won he didnt gloat, he seemed almost ashamed. he doesnt trust his abilities"

she considered what kakashi had to say, she knew the school teacher pretty well by now, having him work the missions desk and deliver files to her personally from time to time had allowed her to see his caring nature. but she still had a village to protect.

"i need to know how he won"

kakashi looked out the window, tsunade frowned wondering if kakashi was actually going to refuse her.

"he has a kekkai genkai"

well that was news to her.

"what kind"

"he can phase through objects, mostly uses it with tree's but i read up on it. if he practiced he would be able to go through just about anything and take people with him."

that was a powerful ability indeed. rubbing her temples she didnt know what to do with the school teacher. he was a kind man, but he had seen kind people swayed with the promise of their greatest desires to turn on comrades.

"alright, i need you to bring him to see me, i need to speak with him personally about this."

kakashi couldnt hide the wince, he knew that wasnt going to go over well with the chunin and he was going to feel the chunin's wrath when iruka realized that kakashi had told the hokage about his secret.

"dont make that kind of face, you'll get stuck like that. its for his saftey and the villages that i need to speak with him."

kakashi nodded, he would of course do as she asked. she was his hokage. she waved him off and he left through the same window he came in by.

********

iruka was tired, his eyes hurt from all the scrolls he'd been reading and he was hungry. reaching down to pat mayonaka on the head he said quite happily.

"were done for the day, lets go home ne"

the dog let out a playful yip and followed him out the door of his office. it was when he left the building that he froze, kakashi was leaning against a tree just outside the building. the man kicked off of the tree and approached the chunin.

"yo"

smiling at the man's typical greeting he asked.

"did you come to walk us home?"

kakashi shook his head.

"nope afraid not, we have orders to go see the hokage"

iruka raised an eyebrow at that, but followed the silver haired ninja.

"do you know why?"

"yes"

"are you going to tell me?"

"wasnt planning on it"

iruka snorted and caught up with the ninja to walk beside him.

"is it bad?"

"depends on your definition"

sighing iruka didnt bother asking anymore questions. once they entered the hokage tower and were signed in, they made their way up the stairs to the office of the hokage. an anbu stood outside the door and reguarded them cooly before stating.

"she only wishes to speak to the chunin"

that caught both of them off guard. iruka looked back to kakashi and the man could only shrug his shoulders.

"i'll be out here i guess"

nodding his head iruka entered the hokage's office, he couldnt help but feel like a child being caught doing something they werent supposed too. he greeted her like always and she just smiled at him.

"how is your new position working out?"

oh was that all it was about?

"its fine, i get to have mayonaka with me during the day so i have company while reading all those scrolls. the only thing that would make it better was if i didnt have to see ibiki"

she laughed a little at that, she knew that the ninja would most likely have a hard time being around the same person who had instigated his torture.

"i have something very important to talk to you about"

"alright"

"but first i want to clarify something"

iruka nodded his head, it wasnt often that she was so calm. hew as beginning to think something was really really wrong.

"its not kakashi's fault-i ordered him to come clean"

yeah he didnt like the sound of that.

"now, why dont you tell me why you didnt reveal you had a kekkai genkai"

yep he was gonna kill kakashi

"it never came up?"

the look on her face told him she wasnt buying it, sighing he shrugged.

"i never thought i should, my parents were worried someone would try to use me as a weapon and it just kinda stuck with me and with everything that happened with sensei, i knew better than to tell them i had one more thing up my sleeve"

she nodded her head at that, she could understand his reservations at telling the truth, but she knew she had to drive home a very important lesson.

"you will not under any circumstances hide any more information from this village, do i make myself clear?"

he bowed his head but nodded.

"is there anything else that you need to tell me"

he couldnt help it, it was the first thing that came to mind.

"im gay"

********

it had been way too quiet in there, he had half expected for the chunin to shout again or to just come running out of the room. so when nothing happened he silently began to worry. then both him and the anbu jumped when they heard tsunade laughing hysterically.

"is that a good thing?"

the anbu twisted his head around and glanced at him.

"the last time she laughed like that she was sentencing someone to take care of the livestock for a year and a half for saying she didnt look young"

"ah, well damn"

the anbu nodded his head before turning back around to his post.

************

he waited for her to stop laughing to continue.

"i still have a contract with the snakes, which im sure you already knew-i know alot of forbidden jutsu's, but i dont use them. i have the skills to assasinate just about anyone in this village, but i'd never-"

"alright thats enough, you understand my position. you are a liability to this village, with your training and your skill set you are a lethal man. whats worse is that you were trying to hide all of this from not only the village but your hokage and the council. you'll continue to report to ibiki for your current assignment and continue to live with hatake until i deem otherwise. i would suggest you start training in your off time from work."

puzzled iruka asked why, she smiled.

"because your going to take the jounin exam and your going to pass it, if i even suspect you of trying to throw the challenges we give you, you will wish you get to spend time with ibiki do i make myself clear?"

iruka nodded his head, he knew she had a temper, but man was she scary when she wanted to be.

"now why dont you tell me all about what you've learned over the years and everything imbetween. dont leave anything out"

iruka knew he didnt have a choice in the matter so he started at the beginning and didnt stop until the tears had dried and started again. when he was through telling her everything he waited for her to say anything, but it was silent for quite a long while before she suggested that they move on and asked.

"good, now do you have any questions about anything we've talked about?"

"why?"

"because we need all the able bodied shinobi we can get, with your skills you will be an important asset to my shinobi. you've lounged around the village long enough, no more hiding what your capable of."

iruka sighed before honestly saying.

"i thought you were just doing it to torture me"

"that too, but the most important part iruka is that this village needs you. i know you would protect your student from any harm, you did during the wave attack. just think of this as protecting them from a threat before they can reach the konoha"

iruka nodded his head, he really didnt have much of a choice in the matter. seeing the automatic responses she was used to the man when he was shutting down she told him.

"this isnt a punishment iruka. this is a chance for you to become a better shinobi for the sake of your village"

"and the council?"

"i will take care of the council-"

"they'll want me to have children for the sake of passing it on"

she nodded her head, she knew there was a high probability of them requesting that.

"i wont do it"

and there he went making her life harder.

"iruka-"

"no i wont just have children because they dont want to lose my abilities. i'll take the jounin exam, i'll do everything else, but i refuse to do that."

she sighed, she knew he was going to continue to fight her on the subject so she simply replied.

"we'll talk about it at a later date, your free to go-oh and here is your new schedule with ibiki, it should give you plenty of time to train for the exam."

taking the paper from the hokage he bowed like he was expected too and stormed out of the office, he couldnt hold back slamming the door on the way out though. she winced at the loud slam. rubbing her forehead she wondered just how long she could hold off the council from demanding iruka to take a wife and sire some children.

********

kakashi and the anbu both jumped when the door swung open rather unexpectidly to show a very not happy chunin, they winced when he slammed the door.

" easy on the door"

the glare he recieved shut the anbu guard up. iruka stormed past kakashi and started down the stairs. kakashi smiled at the anbu before turning to chase after the ninja. iruka stayed silent until they were alone on the road back to the apartment.

"your an ass"

"alright-you realize i couldnt just not tell her right?"

"your still an ass"

"fair enough"

it was silent for a few steps before kakashi asked.

"what did she want?"

iruka stopped in the middle of the street and glarred at him, kakashi didnt know what to do or say and was a little shocked when the chunin suddenly punched him in the face before storming off down the road. rubbing his cheek he followed after the man. he kept his distance until they got to the apartment door. he half expected iruka to slam the door in his face, but the chunin didnt, instead he went straight to his room his dog trailing behind him. once mayonaka was in his room he shut the door.

kakashi sighed, well that could have gone better, but then again it could have gone worse too. now knowing that the ninja could litterally stab him in the back anytime he wished to he was kinda glad to not have something sharp sticking out of him. he took his seat and waited, he was sure that iruka would come around eventually. or try to kill him in his sleep.
