Seaswept
The first sensation penetrating Itachi's sleep was that of a relatively soft bed beneath his body. It was an expression of comfort he had not experienced in weeks. The warmth of blankets piled around him created an uncomfortable heat, yet he was unable to rally the strength to push from his cocoon. The world seemed to encompass this small heated space and exiting it would allow to enter that which his sleep heavy mind attempted to push aside.
As his consciousness level began to rise, the memories began to return. He could still feel the blood on his hands and pooling around his feet while Sasuke screamed in the background. His hands began to shake and his head ached with the inability to expel the thoughts as they began to form a ceaseless stream of unfettered emotions. The mind became a prison for the knowledge of what he had done. "Ah, you're awake. Here's a bit of hard tack and bacon." Itachi's head fully emerged from the wrapping of blankets to see Kisame seated in a chair at the small table sipping a cup of coffee. The simple words were enough to dispel the waking nightmare to the further recesses of him mind. There were no undertones of gentleness or compassion, yet he took surprising comfort from the deeply spoken words. Licking his lips to force back the morning dryness, he focused his gaze on the ship's second in command and spoke the first words to spear into his mind. "Where is Sasuke?" "He's fine…with Dan." Kisame gestured towards the small plate of food. "Heave to, lad. The food won't eat itself." Itachi's stomach gurgled lightly at the sight of the hard bread and salty pork. He couldn't deny the hunger and perhaps in eating, he could push away the thoughts of the previous night. A small cup of fresh water was pushed towards him by a large hand. "Thank you." Hardtack wasn't the tastiest bread, but it was filling. He broke off small pieces and nibbled on them between bites of meat. Every ounce of his focus remained on each bite. It was the only way to keep at bay the shame of how he acted the previous evening. He had not even been capable of bathing himself. Silence ticked by, the only sound was that of Itachi slowly chewing his food. He kept his eyes on the wooden lines of the table and not on his silent companion. With each passing moment, his embarrassment over having had the large man caring for him grew. "We'll be into port soon." Itachi stopped eating and glanced at Kisame, grateful for him having broken the uncomfortable silence. "Where?" "A small port off the coast of Africa. It will be our last stop before returning to berth. We'll resupply for the trip around the Cape. The captain wants to get home to his wife for a bit before shipping out again." Kisame sat back with an easy grin. "The village wenches on Jiraiya's island are the best. The men will be glad to get back to them as well." "Sasuke will stay there?" Itachi finished his meal, the sensation of food in his stomach a small comfort. "He will be safe on this island?" Kisame gave a small snort. "That depends on your definition of safe." Itachi sent Kisame a startled glance. Had the captain lied to him? "The captain say…Sasuke is safe there. Did he lie?" "No, no." Kisame waved aside Itachi's worry. "The lad will be safe on Tsunade Island. It's more of the company he will keep. Captain Jiraiya is a known womanizer even before his wife died two years ago. Your brother will likely learn skills that will get him killed faster than a pirate who robs." "What is this word…womanizer?" Kisame's chuckle sent a tendril of warmth through Itachi. He liked how the deep tone soothed away the darkness threatening the edges of his consciousness. Kisame was keeping the demons at bay, though he had no knowledge of it. "It's a man who fucks his way through women like a glutton does food." Kisame laid a hand on Itachi's shoulder. "Now, let's get you in some clean clothes and start your training." "Training?" asked Itachi as he pulled a sun warmed shirt over his head. "You're to learn to use all manner of weapons and how to run every part of the ship. I'm not really sure you're suited to daggers, but it's better to have some knowledge of all weapons." Kisame placed a hand to the space between Itachi's shoulders and gave a small push. "Go see your brother and then we'll start. You're going to have to start sleeping with the crew as well. You need to build a rapport with them. Those men could save your life one day." Itachi nodded slowly and followed Kisame from his cabin and into the surgeon's quarters where Sasuke sat on the edge of the bunk. "Itachi!" Itachi moved quickly and wrapped his arms around Sasuke's slim shoulders. "I'm sorry you had to see that. I only wanted to protect you. " "Nii-san…I was afraid for you." "I'm fine now." Itachi smiled at his brother. "Thank you for worrying about me. "Come on, lad. We've got some things to do before reaching the port." Kisame tossed a belt filled with sheathed daggers across his shoulder. "Don't go," whispered Sasuke. "[i]Rest, Sasuke. We've still a long way to go,[/i]" assured Itachi with a gentle touch on his brother's shoulder. Kisame placed a hand on Itachi's shoulder. "Come. Daylight is wasting." Itachi frowned and followed him out onto the deck. "Should I start swabbing?" "No. I'm going to show you how to defend yourself. If you're planning on going ashore, I want to make sure you can look out for yourself. The men get pretty drunk and I don't want to have to keep an eye on you all night." Kisame removed a knife from his belt and passed it to Itachi. "Test it out, get used to the feel of the weight in your hand. A dagger can save your life one day. They are easily concealed and useful in close combat. Everyone should have some experience with them." Itachi smoothed his fingers across the wooden handle and down to the razor sharp blade. The metal was smooth and surprisingly light. It was unlike any weapon he had ever felt, shorter than a wakizashi or tantō. "I have them specially made by a weapon smith on Tsunade Island. If you take a fancy to them, I'll have a few made for you." Kisame slid a second blade from its sheath and tossed it with deadly accuracy towards a marked target he had placed. "With a blade such as these, you can take out an enemy from a distance without him ever seeing you." Itachi watched carefully as the blade was removed and tossed again, this time giving him a chance to watch the way it was held. He studied the play of muscles across Kisame's broad shoulders and down his long powerful arms. It was understandable that such small weapons could be deadly under his attack. He possessed visible power, enough to sink a blade into the hardest target. "You try." Itachi nodded and drew back, tossing the blade with as much force as he could, only to have it clatter to the deck. "How?" "Like this." Kisame placed the blade in Itachi's hand and drew back his arm and then extended it in example. He slid a foot between Itachi's feet and forced them apart and then stepped back to watch. Itachi took a breath and following the example given, tossed the dagger. He didn't hit the target, but his blade sunk into the wood. He felt the approval coming from Kisame and turned smirk at his instructor. "Good. You learn quick. That's better than most would do on their second attempt." Kisame leaned back against the railing and watched as Itachi continued to practice his throwing. "We'll work on knots as well. There is no such thing as a sailor who can't tie a knot." "Port ahoy!" Itachi paused in aiming when the shout sounded from the top of the ship. Cheers erupted from the men, several climbing the rigging to ensure an early glance at the shore. The excitement amongst the crew tripled in potency. All the excitement had him frowning in confusion. The men seemed to think coming into port was some sort of reward. "Why so happy?" "They be going to spread their salty seed." Itachi glanced up to meet the gaze Baki, the master gunner of the ship. "I do not understand." "They be going to fuck. The world be full o the salty spawn o sailors." Baki ambled down the steps with a slow limping gait towards where Itachi was practicing under Kisame's watchful gaze. "The captain stays true to 'is wife but the rest be going to fuck themselves dry." Itachi's stomach lurched for a reason he was unable to identify. He turned his gaze from Baki and back towards the target sketched out into the wood. The focus allowed him to push aside what the crew, namely Kisame, would be doing come night when the ship found mooring in the port town. "This be the last chance you have to feel a wench before we reach our berth." A shadow fell over the two. "That's enough, Mr. Baki." "Apologies, Captain." "Get below and make sure the cannons are secure or I'll have you peeling potatoes for Chouza all night." Pein's gaze narrowed on Baki before sliding to Itachi and tossing him a small bag of coins. "They are yours from the take. Spend them how you will." Itachi nodded carefully and tucked the small bag of coins into the satchel that never left his side. He would leave the money with Sasuke when they reached their final port. His brother could keep it safe while he was away. "Stop lounging about, you mangy scalawags and get to work securing that rigging if you want to be given allowance to go ashore," shouted Pein. "My ship had best be in prime condition before even one of you steps down the gangplank." "Keep practicing." Kisame followed Pein down the length of the ship while speaking quietly. "I bet you've never bedded a wench." Deidara leaned against the railing beside Itachi with a wild grin. "I'll make sure to find you a nice and salty one for your first." "I do not want a wench." Itachi shuddered at the thought of what being salty meant. "Don't want a wench? Have your balls dropped yet?" Deidara snickered at his own joke. "The wenches are going to fight over you." "Deidara." Deidara's eyes widened faintly at the large, muscled frame standing before them. "Kisame…I was just telling Itachi about the women, drink, and fun to be had tonight." "I think he can find out those sorts of things for himself," growled Kisame. "Now back to your station. We'll be docking within the hour." Kisame didn't say anything to Itachi as he moved away and began shouting orders to the lolling crew. Itachi watched quietly as the crew moved about their duties with more vigor than they usually expressed. He had never been with a woman, and the thought of being with one shared by others turned his stomach. "Don't worry, lad. You can stay with Shika and myself. We go ashore for the dice, the ale, and maybe a good, hardy meal." Itachi glanced behind him to see Asuma turning the wheel to line the ship up with the rapidly growing port, small smoking pipe clenched between his teeth. "I don't want to go ashore." "Every lad needs to go ashore. You need to feel the earth beneath your feet. The sea is a harsh mistress, but you need not forget that the earth is there waiting should the sea reject you." Asuma gestured for Itachi to join him at the helm. "Have you ever been aboard a ship before now?" Itachi shook his head negative. "I never left my village." Asuma gave a small grunt and ran his callused fingers lovingly over the spokes of the wheel. "This wheel controls the rudder to the ship. I'll teach you about it when we leave port. It's the most important job on the ship." Itachi nodded to the man. Asuma was a large bearded man with soft brown eyes and a build only slightly smaller than Kisame. There was a quiet strength about this man that had him relaxing slightly in his presence. "Thank you. I would like to learn." "You're a good lad." Asuma smiled down at Itachi. "Don't worry about going ashore. I'll look out for you." Itachi bowed slightly to the man before turning his gaze to the port on the horizon. His stomach knotted as it grew larger with each passing second. Would Kisame visit one of the aforementioned salty wenches? It should be of no consequence, but to Itachi, it mattered greatly…more greatly than he understood.
