kakashi woke up first like always and had a couple minutes to reflect on last nights events, he hadnt expected to get into a game about scars with iruka, but he was glad he had. he'd learned about the chunin and in the end...he smiled. he had been skeptical whether or not iruka would let him kiss him, but he had been pleasantly surprised when iruka kissed him back. looking down to the chunin in his lap, iruka was sound asleep, the teacher trusted him at least on some level and was willing to let his guard down to be with him. for some reason no matter what mizuki had done to him over the years iruka was willing to try again. to try with him of all people and he wasnt about to let the man down. reaching down he stroked the mans cheek, knowing he couldnt delay any longer, he reached over to the mans shoulder and shook him gently. iruka's eyes opened and it took a moment for the teacher to get his bearings before he turned his head up to look at kakashi, a smile blossomed on his face.

"morning"

"morning, its time to get up"

iruka frowned at that before shaking his head against kakashi and muttering

"im comfy"

"im sure you are, but we still have training today and i'd rather not be late and catch any more crap from them"

iruka smiled before allowing kakashi to get up, sliding out of bed himself he started to get dressed when he turned around to watch kakashi bend over and grab his pants, blushing a little he turned away before he got caught starring. once they were both dressed they said goodbye to mayonaka and headed to the training field.

**********

they met up with kakashi's team at their normal location and time. the group couldnt help but smile at seeing with his arm around the younger man.

"mah dont you two look cute"

genma called out to them, iruka turned beet red for a moment before frowning at the anbu who was making fun of them. then a though came to mind.

"hey genma you wanna see what a boa constricter feels like?"

the man froze before shaking his head. iruka burst out laughing at the mans face before saying.

"mah dont you look scared"

the group started laughing as the anbu frowned at the chunin.

"smart ass"

iruka shrugged before commenting.

"you gonna leave us alone now or do i get to have you chewed on a bit"

he saw the uncontainable shiver by the anbu and smiled, raidou wrapped his arms around his lover before speaking.

"call him off kakashi"

iruka felt kakashi wrap his arms around him and whisper in his ears.

"play nice"

"i will if he will"

snorting he shrugged to raidou who was shaking his head back and forth. genma stepped away from his much bulkier lover and said.

"just for that im gonna wear your ass out"

"and how is that different from any other day?"

genma shrugged before saying.

"im not going to go easy on you today"

iruka nodded and accepted the challenge, if he could hold off a fully trained anbu even for just a little bit then maybe he would have a shot against the jounin who would be testing him during his exam.

"alright alright you two can pound each other into the ground once your match starts, i believe asuma is going first today"

kurenai called out to the two arguing men. genma frowned at kurenai but nodded before sitting down with raidou. kurenai and kakashi took their seats and watched as asuma started to train with iruka with his blades. pouting a little genma asked.

"so whats up with you two?"

kakashi raised a brow before asking.

"and what makes you think something is up?"

the senbon sucking nin snorted at him and waited for kakashi to spill. sighing kakashi shrugged before saying.

"we talked, told stories, and he let me kiss him"

kurenai was smiling wide and reached out to punch the man in the shoulder.

"you showed him your face?"

kakashi shook his head and she pouted.

"well thats not romantic at all"

genma and raidou laughed at their female teammate before commenting.

"you realize were not some romance novel right? were just like you and asuma."

"but still, leaving your mask on, its not very personal"

kakashi smiled before stating.

"our conversation made up for that"

"oh?"

her curiousity piqued.

"we played a game of sorts-"

"a sex game?"

scowling at genma he muttered to raidou.

"reel him in would you"

genma was about to yell at kakashi when he found himself pulled against raidous chest and man leaned down to kiss him suddenly. pulling away genma smiled at raidou before waiting for kakashi to continue.

"no sex game, we were without our shirts though, we talked about some of our scars and explained how we got them. it was informative as well as personal"

"well thats a little kinky"

genma said a little satified to know they hadnt just been talking. kakashi shook his head at his teammate, genma would say just about anything that came to his mind and although he loved it about the nin, it did sometimes make the ninja put his foot in his own mouth.

"how did he take it?"

kurenai asked skeptically. kakashi smiled at her before saying.

"it went well, he talked about some wounds that orochimaru gave him as well as mizuki, a couple from some missions and then it was my turn."

they nodded surprised that the chunin had been so calm when revealing such personal things. genma couldnt resist.

"and what did you show him?"

shaking his head at his teammate he answered.

"i showed him some of my scars"

genma frowned before asking.

"did you show him the one on your foot?"

kakashi laughed remembering how he had gotten that particular one, shaking his head he clarified.

"no, just on our chests and back."

"so you were shirtless, nice"

"yes genma we were shirtless, how else would we show each other the scars?"

genma shrugged before turning his attention to the match going on. shaking his head kakashi and others turned their attention towards the chunin who was fiercly trying to beat the stronger man, he watched as iruka threw weapons that asuma avoided knowing the chunin's tricks now.

"think he's got anything else up his sleeve?"

"we didnt talk about any of his other skills so your guess is as good as mine"

raidou nodded, they knew now not to underestimate the smaller man, but they also knew he was still holding way too much back. iruka darted around asuma trying to get behind the man,but asuma wasnt falling for it. getting frustrated iruka pulled out some more weapons to throw to hopfully distract the man enough for him to get in close enough to make a hit. he knew it didnt have to draw blood, a hit was a hit on an anbu. ducking another swipe by the man, he barely avoided the chakra trail the blade emitted. cursing he kicked out at the man only to have asuma jump over his leg and come down to crash his blades over his head, that is if he had stayed there, he quickly rolled backwards and climbed to his feet again. panting he wasnt sure what else to do. asuma wasnt leaving any room for him to get a hit in, which he didnt expect the man too, but he was running out of options. avoiding more hits he tried to think of anthing he could do to overpower the anbu.

there had been a couple close calls, but overall iruka had managed to not get hurt by asuma which was just as important as him being able to land a hit on the man. they winced as asuma kicked iruka to the ground, the teacher tumbling a couple times before righting himself.

"how do you think he'll do in hand to hand when he's not fighting someone with chakra blades?"

"i think he'll hold his own, but its better to prepare him for anything that could happen then make him believe that no one would use those skills against him."

the others nodded, they had done their best to prepare the chunin, there was no doubt that he had a little bit of a leg up simply because they had been the ones training him instead of just a jounin. they watched as iruka suddenly decided to run full sprint towards asuma.

"what in the hell is he thinking?"

"i dont think he is?"

they watched as iruka faked to the right and then instead of going for the left summersaulted over asuma to land behind the man and trip him up, asuma countered by twisting around with the blades ready to cut as he fell. iruka barely dodged the one near his throat, but couldnt avoid the one aimed at his stomache. he felt the tearing sensation even as he managed to roll away from landing asuma on his ass. standing he panted and smiled as he saw asuma getting off the ground, his hand coming to push against the gash on his stomache. it wasnt too deep and he didnt think he needed any medical aid for it, but he ignored it for the sake of walking towards the anbu who was shaking his head at the mans gutsy move.

"that was balsy i'll give you that, but i drew blood and you didnt so the victory still goes to me"

iruka didnt complain, he just nodded and headed back towards the group, once they were seated he felt kakashi trying to tug his hand away from his stomache.

"its fine"

"your bleeding through your fingers"

looking down he found that the ninja was correct, frowning he wondered if he had been wrong on his assesment of the wound. letting kakashi pull his hand away and lift his shirt he was surprised to find the cut deeper than he had thought it was.

"damn, sorry iruka, i should have adjusted when i twisted around"

looking at the gash he turned his attention to the man who'd cut him.

"dont worry about it, truth be told i can barely feel it"

they looked at him like he was nuts, smiling he poked at the scar they knew orochimaru had caused when performing surgery on the man.

"theres not a lot of feeling in this area, propably why i didnt think it was that deep"

they nodded as kakashi gently pulled the edges of the wound open again to guage just how deep it really was. sighing he told the chunin.

"your gonna need stitches"

"really? are you sure?"

looking down at the wound, he was quickly being covered by his own blood. frowning he looked to kakashi before asking.

"we dont have to goto the hospital do we? cant you just stitch it up?"

kakashi was shocked that the chunin would ask him to give him medical aid.

"what? you said you've done it before and its not like i'll need painkillers i cant even feel it"

sighing kakashi nodded his head before asking asuma for the first aid kit he knew the man always brought with him. fishing out the supplies he told iruka to lay on his back. the chunin easily complied before moving his shirt out of kakashi's way. kurenai handed kakashi some water to wash away the blood in his way.

"this is gonna sting"

iruka nodded his head but to their surprise he didnt even flinch as the water was used to remove the blood. using some gauze kakashi patted the wound dry, sopping up some new blood that was beginning to flow. getting the needle and thread ready, he leaned over the chunin and started to neatly stitch the gash together. it didnt take more that five stiches for the gash to be closed and iruka didnt seem to react even as he pierced his skin with the needle. wiping the rest of the blood away he smiled at iruka and nodded. iruka sat up without even making a face. kakashi cleaned up the supplies and put the stuff away in the kit before turning to iruka to ask if he was ok.

"im fine, like i said i dont have much feeling there. its kinda a bonus"

"not if you get seriously hurt, you could end up in a dangerous situation if you ignore a wound in that area"

kurenai spoke authoritivly. iruka nodded his head and promised to be careful, that seemed to put the woman at ease. raidou cracked his knuckles and told iruka to get ready to which the chunin responded.

"but i've been wounded"

"nice try move it"

iruka laughed before climbing to his feet and following the man, kurenai called out to raidou.

"be careful of his stitches"

raidou waved her off muttering under his breath so only iruka could hear 'mother hen' the chunin snorted before coming to stand infront of him.

watching the two leave the group relaxed as they watched the match begin infront of them.

"well that was interesting"

genma spoke up, chewing on his favorite senbon. asuma nodded before cleaning his blades, there was a little blood on one of them and he wasnt about to leave the chunin's blood there.kurenai smiled up at him and gave him a kiss on the cheek. it wasnt too long before they heard the tell tale signs of iruka being thrown to the ground. smiling to each other they looked over to find the man laying on his back with raidou standing over him obviously lecturing him. turning back around kurenai filled asuma in on what he had missed, namely that kakashi had gotten shirtless with the chunin and kissed him. asuma smiled at his long time friend before saying.

"about time"

kakashi snorted at him before idly commenting.

"and how long did it take you to get up the balls to ask her out?"

"touche"

kakashi nodded and returned to watching the match between raidou and iruka. the match wasnt overly entertaining so they started talking about irukas test.

"have you told him about what to expect in the forest?"

kakashi shook his head.

"no, i was gonna warn him tonight, there's not much i can do but tell him to becareful. until he comes acrossed such things and gains experience he's going to screw up a couple times to learn"

they nodded, it was something that they had all gone through with their students, it was hard to not just give the students the answers when they struggled. they werent surprised when raidou returned with iruka in tow, sitting down gingerly iruka rubbed his stomache which caused some concern, he waved them off before stating he could feel it now because raidou had thrown him around.

after taking some time to eat lunch, it was genmas turn to train with iruka. he lead the chunin towards the woods and they were off. they heard the typical noises of the two fighting in the distance, an explosion here a tree falling there. it was a typical ninjitsu battle between two people. as they waited they talked about the kids and how they were doing, they knew not to ask about sasuke, but they asked about naruto and sakura who kakashi was more than willing to talk about.

"a med nin huh?"

nodding his head he told them.

"she's studying under the hokage"

their eyes widened, it wasnt everyday that someone got to be taught by a hokage let alone a med nin as skilled as theirs.

"thats impressive"

kurenai spoke out. kakashi nodded before asking how each of their teams were doing, asuma boasted about shikamaru's ability to lead his team with little imput from him.

"he'll make a great leader for a team when he reaches jounin. i just dont know if he'll bother with teaching genin's though. he'd propably consider it too troublesome."

the others laughed they knew all about the nara boy who was known for his lazyness, despite the fact that he was a genius. they heard a loud crash from the forest before a dust cloud stirred up.

"think iruka's making good on his promise about the snakes?"

"i hope not, i'd prefer to find him a different contract, but i havent spoken to him about it yet"

the group understood his reasoning, the summons were supposed to help you whenever you called, not demand sacrifices and blood debts. the snakes were unrully and could easily turn against iruka if he wasnt careful.

"what kind of summons would he like do you think?"

kakashi shrugged, he hadnt really taken the time to think about what would suit the man the best. it was asuma who spoke up next.

"why not give him a contract with your ninken?"

kakashi had considered that, but wasnt sure if iruka would like the idea of them having the same contract. it could be useful that was for sure, but it also might make the man feel babied. telling his team this they continued to call out different summons they thought might work for the chunin.

"is he squeemish? he could use spiders or something like them"

"i have no idea if he's scared of insects, you've been in his head"

kurenai pursed her lips before tartly replying.

"i wasnt searching for phobias"

"true, you could today"

kurenai shook her head.

"im not going to waste our time training finding out if he's afraid of animals. just ask him"

kakashi shrugged before stating that it was just too easy to do it that way. she frowned at him as he smiled back at her. the wind suddenly whipped by them, a shockwave from something. looking into the forest they didnt see anything. it was silent.

a couple minutes turned into a half an hour and still the ninjitsu battle wasnt over.

"their really going at it today arnt they."

"i think their peeved at one another for this morning"

the group nodded, they knew that both iruka and genma could have a temper and it made sense that when the two tempers crashed something like this would happen. before they could strike up another conversation a loud boom echoed through the field. raising a brow asuma asked what the hell that was.

"no clue, it wasnt genma, i know all his tricks"

raidou spoke clearly before looking to kakashi to see if he knew anything. the man shook his head.

"could be one of his traps"

they continued to wait for another half an hour before kakashi said they should find the two and sepperate them. the group got up to start venturing into the forest when they saw iruka come darting out from the underbrush and run behind kakashi.

"iruka?"

"you have to hide me, he's gone postal"

raidou laughed at the chunin, shaking his head he gave a clear whistle to call his lover back to them. moments ticked by and nothing happened. turning to the chunin he asked.

"did you tie him up again?"

"earlier but he got out of it"

nodding his head raidou had only managed to take two steps before genma appeared in a flash of smoke, his forehead was bleeding and he was scowling at the chunin who was peeking from behind kakashi.

"did you have to do that?"

iruka smiled before retorting.

"you wouldnt give up"

"im anbu im not supposed to give up"

iruka slowly stepped out from behind kakashi and stated.

"yeah well im a teacher i teach people a lesson when they do stupid things, you did something stupid"

genma frowned at the chunin before muttering.

"next time im letting my summons eat you"

they all knew that genmas summons wasnt a carnivore so the threat was moot, but they had to ask what the chunin had done.

"i laid down a special trap, its not my fault he fell for it"

genma glared at iruka and huffed out.

"it was totally reasonable to think you'd hide like that"

"see, not my fault you made assumptions"

raidou wrapped his arms around genma and kissed his neck.

"what did he do love?"

"he threw me in a pit of fuckin snakes"

they turned to iruka in shock before iruka started laughing.

"they werent real snakes genma"

"did you do an illusion?"

kurenai asked and iruka nodded. smiling she told him he had done good if he had fooled genma, the man in question yelled out not to be supporting his use of vile creatures.

"so what was in the pit?"

kakashi had to know. turning to face the copy ninja iruka snorted out.

"ants, lots and lots of ants"

genma frowned before yelling about how he had been bit all over. iruka turned back to the irate ninja before saying.

"just think of it this way, raidou can kiss it and make it better"

that stopped genmas rant and he turned his head around to leer at his lover. raidou just nodded his head. that seemed to do the trick and genma turned around and said.

"you sir are a genius"

iruka laughed at the quick change in temperment. he felt kaksahi pull him to sit down so they could begin his genjitsu training. iruka was sore, but didnt seem to be bothered too much by it. kakashi asked how his stomache was, iruka just smiled at him, frowning he reached over to move the man's shirt aside, the wound was irritated, but the stitches had held.

"see, its fine"

kakashi let go of irukas shirt and nodded to the chunin. kurenai coughed to get their attention.

"so what shall we do today?"

iruka spouted off chipperly, kurenai smiled at him before saying.

"im really going to test you hard today alright?"

iruka nodded before saying.

"do your worst"

smiling she didnt tell him she wasnt about to do that to him, but just started the illusion.

***********

it was bitterly cold, he was freezing, looking around him he found himself outside obviously, but where he didnt know. looking around he tried to identify where he was. shivering he tried to breathe warmth into his fingertips which were quickly turning blue. it did little good. suddenly there was movement behind him, twisting around he sighed when he saw his teammate come through the brush.

"come on iruka were going to get found if we dont keep going"

puzzled as to what his teammate meant, he followed the boy through the woods, through the deep snow. as they walked he tried to ask him what was going on, but the boy just kept shushing him. frowning he tried to piece together what was going on.

"where's sensei?"

"come on iruka"

"jito where's sensei?"

"come on iruka"

frowning he paused in the middle of the woods, something wasnt right here. jito turned around to face him and the boy looked sad.

"iruka why didnt you stop him?"

"jito?"

suddenly blood started to seep through the boys clothing, where the kunai wound had been. gasping he took a step back.

"no jito, wait we'll get help."

"why didnt you stop him iruka, you were right there, why didnt you save me?"

turning his head around he tried to find someone to help, anyone. he called for his sensei, for his other teammate. but no one was coming, he knew that. turning to face the dying boy he muttered.

"im so sorry"

the boy took a step forward his face turning into a malice grin.

"you left me to die, you just left me-you didnt try to save me"

"no jito i tried really i did, but you pulled the kunai out and you just started bleeding everywhere and-"

he felt the icy hot pain of something stabbing him, looking down he saw a kunai sticking out of him, right where jito had been stabbed. looking up he was suddenly in the boys place, his sensei looking over him as he gasped for air, blood gurgling in his throat, he couldnt talk, he couldnt tell anyone what was happening, he had to watch in horror as the man reached over and with very little effort broke his neck. he heard the distinct cracking of the vertebrae and everything went dark.

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

the team watched as iruka twitched occasionally but didnt seem too bothered by what was happening. a sudden violent spasm however caught their attention. something was deffinetly going on in the mans head. and then just as fast as it had started it ended. iruka took a shuddering gasp and his eyes bolted around them. kakashi reached out to touch him and chunin nearly jumped out of his skin, twisting around iruka sighed when he saw kakashi.

"you ok"

iruka gulped but nodded, turning around he found kurenai pursing her lips.

"you didnt even try"

"you caught me off guard, i couldnt even tell it was an illusion that time"

she nodded her head, she had wondered if the genjitsu had been too strong for iruka to desipher.

"ready to try something else?"

iruka nodded.

***********

he was seated before the third, the elderly man was smoking his pipe like he always did, but he was watching iruka carefully.

"tell me what happened please"

iruka furiously shook his head avoiding eye contact with the intimidating man infront of him. he heard the man sigh before speaking again to him.

"i cant help you iruka if you dont let me"

again he shook his head.

"im fine"

taking another puff of his pipe the third reguarded the boy infront of him carefully.

"and your wounds?"

"training accident sir"

"why didnt you goto the hospital?"

"i-i didnt think it was that bad"

letting out the smoke that had filled his lungs he took a minute to think before speaking to the child again.

"and after you realized it was that bad?"

"i should have gotten help sir, it wont happen again"

"see that it doesnt"

nodding his head iruka stood up from his deep bow.

"am i excused sir?"

the third nodded his head and waved the boy off, relieved that it was over he started for the door only to hear his name called out, turning around he waited patiently for the third to say what he wanted to say.

"do be more careful next time my boy"

nodding his head he left in a hurry and didnt look back. in a flash he was no longer in the hokage tower but in the forest somewhere. he was tied to a tree and his sensei was looming over him, shaking he called out.

" i-i told him it was an accident."

his sensei nodded his head.

"i told him i didnt think it was that bad so thats why i didnt goto the hospital"

again his sensei nodded. the boy waited for anything to happen before he found his sensei directly infront of him hissing out to him.

"and what else did you promise boy"

sobbing he knew where he had gone wrong.

"it wouldnt happen again"

"now you see our dilema"

iruka nodded his head, he shouldnt have said that, it was foolish to say such things. of course it would happen again.

"what do you say next time"

"im clumsy"

"good and after that?"

"i'll be more careful next time"

his sensei started to shake his head back and forth before commenting.

"im so dissapointed in you iruka, so very dissapointed. we've worked so hard to get where we are and now your just letting everything slip through your fingers."

as if to accentuate the point the sanin grasped the boys hand and in a harsh twist snapped two of the boys fingers, iruka gasped at the sudden pain. he felt the sanin grasp the other two fingers and winced, he knew what was going to happen if he answered wrong again.

"where did you go afterwards?"

"home"

"why didnt you seek me out to tell me of your little meeting with the hokage"

"i didnt know-"

crack, sobbing he looked down as the oher two fingers were now twisted in the wrong direction.

"please sensei, im sorry it wont happen again"

the snake sanin reguarded the boy a moment before saying.

"you are correct, it wont happen again. because if it does, they'll be finding your rotting corpse out in the woods being eaten by scavenging dogs. do i make myself clear"

iruka hastily nodded his head, the snake sanin glowered at him before releasing the boy to fall to the ground. once he was on his feet he waited for his sensei to dismiss him.

"go"

he quickly turned and ran, he knew better than to look back at the angry man.

iruka watched it all play out, the scene was transitioning again when he decided enough was enough. pushing against the invisible barrier he huffed when it didnt give way. focusing some more of releasing himself from the memories he didnt bother to pay attention with what was going on behind him. he could hear mizuki's voice but tuned it out as he struggled more against the bindings keeping him in the illusion, he winced when he heard himself screaming and the grunting of mizuki raping him. determined not to fail he fought to find a way around the barrier barring his way. he finally started to feel it give way and smiled. he continued to ignore the horrid sounds in the backround, he knew all of what was going on anyways, he'd lived it once and didnt need to see it again. pushing against the barrier he felt it break.

**********

they watched in silence as the chunin and kurenai battled it out in the mans mind, neither of them seemed to be effected by what was going on, so the others took their time to chat. it had been almost twenty minutes when kakashi was getting impatient.

"what is she doing a marathon?"

"thats one marathon i would never take"

genma muttered, he was chewing on his senbon while leaning against raidou who was rubbing his arms. asuma held kurenai to him, but made sure not to get in the way of her genjitsu. kakashi had wrapped his own arms around iruka to give him some measure of security when he snapped out of it.

five minutes later iruka blinked and kurenai followed suit. she smiled at him.

"that was exactly what you need to do"

iruka leaned against the warmth seeping into his back. he was glad that he had made at least one of his teachers proud of him.

"make sure you keep that in mind during your test just in case they trap you"

iruka nodded, he wasnt going to let his memories dictate if he failed or not in the stupid exam. he was tired of orochimaru and mizuki having control over him. with training done the groups went their sepperate ways. genma ranting about how he wanted raidou to make sure to kiss all the bites better as they walked down the street. iruka just chuckled and stated.

"that was too much information"

"thats genma for you"

smiling to the copy ninja they walked together, holding hands for the first time in public. iruka was finally beginning to come around about showing their affection with one another when outside the apartment. kakashi was glad for it, he wanted to make sure everyone knew that the spunky teacher was his.
