coming through the barrier, iruka was about to ask kakashi how they should tell his teammates about their closeness when kakashi pulled him in tight against his chest. shaking his head iruka guessed that would work too.

in the end it was worth it, genma ended up nearly impaling his foot with his own senbon when his mouth flew open. raidou and the others turned to see what had him so shocked and smiled.

"its about damn time"

raidou muttered under his breath so kakashi coudlnt hear, his teammates however did and burst out laughing. once they were in front of them, kakashi spoke.

"alright we have four days to get him ready. tsunade said he's clear for training but to watch where you hit, his ribs are healed but could buckle under the strain since its a fresh wound."

the group nodded and iruka pointed out to raidou.

"she wouldnt let me skip taijitsu though"

smiling raidou promised to take it easy on the man at least as far as hitting his chest was concerned. of course he didnt say that outloud, he didnt want the chunin to think he was babying him. it was decided that genma would go first, the pair walked out a ways before kurenai called out to start. the two shinobi dissapeared into the woods leaving kakashi to fend off his teammates.

"so-how are things?"

he glared at raidou, but the man wasnt intimidated by it. it was kurenai who asked.

"who initiated it? cause-"

"he did"

that relieved all of them on some level, to know that iruka had been the one to call out to kakashi and not the other way around made sure that the chunin actually wanted the other mans affection.

"were happy for you"

kakashi nodded, he understood perfectly that his teammates had been growing more concerned about his refusal to try and meet someone, then iruka just fell into his lap. it seemed that even kami could be kind. they heard the clashing of weapons in the distance followed closly by an explosion.

"how are his ribs?"

kurenai asked, she was concerned that they were starting training too soon even though they were running out of time to prepare him.

"sore, he hasnt said anything but he winces occasionally if he moves wrong, but tsunade made sure that they were mostly healed before he was allowed to continue training."

they nodded, they trusted their hokages advice and if she said that iruka coud train then he could train. another explosion went off in the distance, followed by the tree's in that area collapsing. it was nearly twenty minutes later that they saw the first signs of genma and iruka and that was only because they could hear iruka laughing, they watched as the pair came into view and genma looked freaked out by something. he kept brushing himself off. raidou raised an eyebrow at his lover and asked what he was doing. genma turned and pointed accusingly at the chunin.

"its all his fault, damn that was gross"

iruka just kept laughing, leaning against a tree he tried to catch his breath, his ribs were aching because of the exertion but everytime he thought he had it under control genma would do something to make him start back up.

"what'd you do?"

asuma asked, iruka shrugged before calmly stating.

"i taught him a lesson about snakes, for some reason he didnt appreciate it"

"you used your summons?"

iruka nodded, he understood their surpise, he had always been cautious about using it, but he had really had his back against the wall when fighting genma today so he had resorted to calling in backup. they watched as genma shivered again causing iruka to laugh.

"your being a baby about it, its not that bad"

genma shot him a glare before pointing his finger at the chunin.

"you would voluntarilly do that to yourself?"

now the group was confused and a little hesitant to find out what iruka was willing to do to himself.

"i've done it before, its a good escape technique, im sure you can see why"

genma shuddered even as raidou wrapped his arms around him.

"so what happened?"

kakashi was dying to know what had freaked out his seasoned teammate out so badly.

"he let the damn thing swallow me"

that had them all in shock.

"it didnt swallow you, if it had you wouldnt be alive, it merely put you in its mouth, it spat you right back out anyways."

"i thought you never summoned the bigger ones"

kurenai asked hesitently.

"i normally dont, but that particular one is pretty easy going and for a couple of rabits it was worth the look on genmas face"

"thats all it asked for?"

kakashi wanted to make sure that iruka hadnt gotten himself in any deeper with the creatures.

"yep, he loves rabbits. even for his size he just likes the taste i guess. anyways, before we go home i have to do that"

kakashi nodded his head, he would help the chunin round up some rabbits if it prevented the snakes from being angry with him. genma shuddered in raidous grasp making iruka snort again.

"really its not that bad, he's overeacting"

"how is being eaten alive and freaking out not overeacting"

"you werent eaten, besides i've been in far worse situations with them"

the group waited to see if the chunin would elaborate but when he didnt raidou asked what he meant.

"you know manda right, sensei's giant summons"

they all nodded, the thing was terrifying.

"i've been in his mouth before"

they gauked at the chunin, iruka laughed at them.

" so see that guy was nothing, manda is a lot harder to convince to have you spit out then that little guy"

"how'd you wind up inside manda's mouth?"

asuma asked, his cigarette dangling precariously from his mouth.

"sensei was teaching us a lesson on snakes and wanted us to see who could figure out how to escape the snakes mouth before time ran out. in the end he had to let us out cause we couldnt figure it out."

"he just stuck you in there?"

they were all appauld at the idea, iruka shrugged before answering.

"we actually thought it was pretty cool at the time, we were fresh out of the academy and didnt know anything about summons, it was our first chance to see one up close."

"and it ate you, that is just friggin wrong"

genma shouted, iruka shook his head before clarifying again.

"he didnt eat us genma, we were just in his mouth."

the ninja just continued to shake his head which made iruka laugh at him all the more. finally kurenai got his attention and suggested that they try some genjitsu. nodding his head he took a seat infront of her and waited patiently.

***********

it was dark, but not so dark as to prevent him from seeing. looking around he recognized the apartment. sighing iruka knew this was going to be another unpleasent memory about mizuki. he idly wondered why she kept focusing on that, was it now because he and kakashi were growing closer, was she testing him? letting the illusion take over he watched as the darkness gave way to a figure standing in the doorway. sighing iruka watched as it approached his sleeping form on the bed. he gently tested the waters to see how hard she was focusing on the illusion. there was no give. looking back to mizuki climbing up the bed like a skilled predator he shook his head and tried harder to break the illusion. again he found only resistance. he watched as skillful hands reached out to caress his face before trailing down his body, going underneath the sheets to start his violation. his body never stirred and iruka knew why, even if kurenai didnt. shaking his head again he tried to break the genjitsu with a little more force, he really didnt want kurenai to figure it out, it was only a matter of time though before she did. pushing against the invisible restraints he felt them start to give just as the other version of himself opened its eyes to reveal a blank stare. he wasnt responding to a single thing mizuki was doing to him. he never would, pushing against the restraints he finally broke free from the genjitsu.

*********

iruka blinked first proving that he had just successfully broken the jutsu, but kurenai was frowning at the man.

"its ok kurenai"

she shook her head before muttering about how they should have just killed the rat, of course her teammates heard her and picked up on what the memory had revolved around.

"good job on breaking it though, ready to try something harder?"

nodding his head iruka wanted to go into the illusion world instead of have to face their questions about mizuki. he got his wish.

***********

he wasnt surprised to find himself back in the cabin, it seemed that kurenai was bound and determined to find out the truth, she already knew why he was being tortured, he had rebelled against his sensei when asked to kill the third, but she didnt yet know just how far his sensei would go to make him do the task set before him. he started fighting the moment that his sensei came into view. of course kurenai wasnt about to give in that easily when she wanted answers, sighing iruka let the illusion play a little more, maybe if he let her see some of it she would let it go in the future.

his sensei was holding a chakra scapel, used only by med nins to make non bleeding wounds for surgery. irukas form shook as his sennsei brought it closer.

"you remember what this is dont you boy"

iruka nodded his head while he hung from his shoulders.

"good, then tell me what are you going to do"

"sensei-i cant pleast dont dont please"

the scapel came down to just centimeters before the skin of his stomach. iruka instinctivly tried to pull away but to no good.

"tell what your going to do"

iruka shook his head back and forth, which was obviously the wrong answer.the blade touched his skin and effortlessly ripped the flesh neatly open, with precision orochimaru dragged the blade across his students stomache, only creating a big enough hole for his hand to fit though. once that was done he waited for iruka to stop screaming before continuing.

"what are you going to do"

iruka sobbed, the pain was horrible, he could see the opening as his head was laying against his chest, he heaved air in and out and he watched his sensei's hand grow close to the wound. he flinched.

"please sensei please dont do it again"

"all you have to do is do what your told, then all of this ends"

iruka sobbed, he couldnt do it though, he loved the third. shaking his head he knew there was no way to prepare himself from the pain about to be endured. orochimaru shoved his hand through the incision causing iruka's body to buckle at the sudden invasion. the boy started gasping right away.

iruka sighed, he iddly wondered if this was what she was hoping to see, did she truly need to know everything to satisfy her curiousity. he watched as orochimaru grasped something inside of him and constricted his hand around it causing the younger version of himself to scream, there was no blood, but the wound was splayed open like a mouth engulfing the mans hand. the snake sanin pushed his hand in deeper, allowing his arm to start to dissapear into the boys body.

"tell me what your going to do"

iruka could only gasp, barely being able to bring enough air in through the pain. at the same time he couldnt look away as his sensei's arm dissapeared inside of him. bucking when the sanin started to twist his wrist inside him, iruka started to cough violently, blood coming to his lips to spill over them.

"tell me what your going to do!"

iruka gasped through the blood invading his mouth sending flecks of red onto his sensei's face as he sneered right infront of him.

iruka sighed, it was only going to get worse from here, pushing against the barrier he found it looser than he thought it should be, he guessed that kurenai was shocked by what she saw enough to let her guard down. pushing harder he broke the jutsu sending them both back to their bodies.

***********

the reactions were immidiete, iruka shook his head like he was trying to clear something from his mind and kurenai managed to lean over asuma to avoid vomiting on him. the group collectivly gasped as they watched kurenai get sick from whatever memory she had just witnessed. asuma patted her back as she heaved and help her lean against him when she was done. no one said a word, it was iruka who spoke up first.

"i told you, you wouldnt like what you saw"

kurenai nodded her head, she remembered the chunin warning her not to go digging and yet she had pressed the matter. now she knew why he had given that warning.

"how'd you survive"

she asked catching her breath from being sick. the group looked to iruka who was smiling at her gently.

"he had enough skill to undo what he did, if it had been anyone else i would have died a long time ago"

"still the damage-"

iruka smied at her before lifting up his shirt to show a 3 inch scar on his abdomen.

"thats all thats left, he knew what he was doing"

kurenai nodded, before apologizing to the chunin.

"im the one who should be sorry, i didnt have to let you see that, i knew you wouldnt like it but you didnt seem to want that memory go so i figured i'd let you find out the answers for yourself."

she nodded, before talking to him again.

"i think im done for the day"

iruka nodded, he understood her need to distance herself from what she had just seen, to give herself time to process it. he felt kakashi place a hand on his shoulder and looked to the jounin.

"what was it?"

shaking his head at the man, he replied.

"you really wouldnt like to know about it, you saw kurenai's reaction."

kakashi left it at that, he was sure that he could get the man to talk about it in private once they were away from the rest of his team, or maybe kurenai would talk once iruka as occupied with somone else. as if knowing a diversion was needed raidou called iruka to join him in the field. smiling to kakashi he scampered off after his taijitsu teacher. they had barely started when kurenai muttered.

"he performed surgery on him"

they looked at her confused for a moment until she continued.

"he had a chakra scapel and he just cut him open while he was awake. then he-he put his hand through the wound and started pulling on things i guess cause iruka started having trouble breathing and he was coughing up blood, but the wound never bled. he tortured him like that for hours"

kakashi's fist clenched at that, iruka had been cut open like some cadaver and messed around with for the sheer enjoyment of orochimaru.they all understood who the man was, there was no need to ask at this point. asuma wrapped his arms around her tightly before saying everything was alright.

"he's fine, he's right over there getting trounced again by raidou"

she smiled at that, she couldnt help but hold onto the look on irukas face as he begged orochimaru not to do it again. shuddering against asuma he let him console her as they turned their attention to the match.

they watched as raidou was giving iruka tips on how to hold himself to better protect himself during hand to hand combat, then he'd attack and let iruka test out the new knowledge. so far he seemed to be doing fairly well. they let them continue as genma turned and asked.

"why was he doing that?"

"it was about the third, iruka was refusing to hurt him and orochimaru was demanding he do it"

they sighed, of course they knew how that had ended, iruka must have finally broke under the torture and just given into the orders to make the pain finally stop. everyone had their breaking point, they couldnt fault the chunin for breaking under orochimarus care. after all, they all had to under go torture training to be in anbu, they knew how far a persons mind could be pushed before it began to break down. everyone had limits, even the best of them. the group smiled as the pair rejoined them, iruka was panting and holding his chest. but otherwise seemed to be doing just fine. sitting back down to take a breather he excepted the cantine from kakashi and took a long drag of the cold water before handing it back to the man.

"hows your chest?"

"i wont lie, i think i might actually need to take one of those painkillers they gave me later on, otherwise im not going to be able to move tomorrow"

kakashi nodded, he had wondered if iruka was going to give into the need for medication after today, he was silently glad that the ninja was smart enough to know the limitations of his own body. asuma, stood up from behind kurenai, letting her take his spot against the tree before motioning iruka to follow.

they filled raidou in on what they had talked about while asuma trained iruka, shaking his head the man couldnt help but glance at the chunin who had grown on them all.

it wasnt more than a half an hour before asuma was done with iruka, it was obvious that the still healing nin was exhausted by the way he carried himself. the group stood as they returned and kakashi wrapped an arm around iruka, feeling him sag a little against him.

"good match, though you were giving too much of your left side as a sacrifice to overcome my other attacks"

iruka nodded before mummbling about not needing that side anyways. the anbu huffed out a laugh before telling kakashi to take the poor man home. kakashi was about to just use the transportation jutsu to take them home when iruka muttered.

"rabbits"

cursing under his breath he remembered that iruka had a debt to repay. sighing he lowered iruka down and asked how many the snake would need.

"four should be good, but i can help"

kakashi was gone before he could continue his sentance. frowning at the smiling anbu he impatiently waited for kakashi to return with the rabbits. once he reappeared five rabbits in tow, iruka bit his thumb and summoned the snake. once the smoke had cleared a large snake was revealed, a very large snake. genma shuddered and stepped closer to raidou. iruka ignored him and bowed to the snake, the snake just glared at him for a moment before asking.

"who do i need to mouth now?"

"no one, i brought the rabbits you asked for. thank you for your help"

the snake reguarded the man infront of him casually before excepting the offered meal. swallowing all five rabbits in a single gulp. iruka smiled at the snake and wasnt surprised when it spoke one last time to him.

"at least you honor your debts"

with that he was gone in a puff of smoke. leaning back he knew kakashi was behind him, he relaxed against the strong chest.

"dont worry genma i'll protect you from the big bad snake"

he called a smile to his lips as he turned to face the anbu member. genma glared and flipped him off much to the chunins amusement. kakashi shook his head and prodded iruka to start heading towards the exit. it didnt take long for them to arrive at the apartment and enter mayonaka of course ran to greet them, and as tired as he was iruka still took a moment to greet her back and scratch behind her ears. kakashi walked off for a minute before returning with two pills and a glass of water. iruka sighed at the sight, he knew the pills would either make him loopy or knock him on his ass for the rest of the day.

"you said so yourself"

iruka nodded giving in, he took the offered pills and took a swig of water to wash them down. going to his chair he sighed as he relaxed. kakashi made some tea before joining him in the living room. the copy nin was rather surprised when iruka said quite seriously.

"i apologize now for anything i do in the next 4 to 6 hours give or take how long these things work"

kakashi smiled at him before saying all was forgiven. it was only a short time later that iruka started talking out loud about anything that popped into his head. it was entertaining for kakashi, but he also felt guilty for taking advantage of the situation when he asked.

"how long have you liked me?"

"hmm, oh a while, figured i didnt stand a chance i mean look at me"

as if the ephasize the point iruka poked himself in the chest and started laughing, shaking his head kakashi let the nin entertain himself. it was a couple hours later when kakashi dragged a still incoherant iruka to bed, getting him settled he kissed the mans forehead before telling him to rest. iruka didnt seem to argue because he just made himself comfortable before closing his eyes.

it was sometime later that kakashi crawled into bed with the man, iruka mummbled out a confused 'kakashi' before snuggling closer to the new body next to him. wrapping his arm around iruka he snuggled down for a good nights rest next to the man he was quickly finding himself falling in love with.

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

kakashi's eyes shot open, sighing he looked down to iruka to find the man moving around a little, frowning he was about to start talking to the ninja to calm him when iruka stilled his movements and relaxed back against him, smiling he made sure his arm wasnt hurting iruka before going back to sleep.

the second time he woke abruptly, it was because iruka was trying to disentangle himself from kakashi without waking him. frowing he called out.

"whats wrong?"

iruka jolted a bit but turned his head and muttered.

"bathroom"

letting the nin go, he waited for the half asleep man to return before wrapping his arms around him again and snuggling closer together.

"kakashi?"

"hmm"

"i dont think i want to take anymore of those pills"

smiling he shushed the man and got him to relax against his chest before watching iruka fall back to sleep. kissing the mans head he allowed himself to drift back to sleep.
