From the Light Comes Darkness

Team Orochimaru's Revelations

Disclaimer: See Chapter 1

Ten shadows leaped from tree to tree. "There is a good clearing up ahead." The leader said, as they got closer to his choice of destination. "We can camp there for the night and carry on tomorrow." The leader's eyes closed, loving the feel of the wind on his face. Night was falling fast, and soon they would set up camp. He couldn't wait.

It took a few minutes before they reached the clearing, and when they did, they immediately started to set up camp. Everyone pulling their share, and they soon had the camp ready. Kurama leaned against a tree, eyes closed in thought, wondering how he came to be there when he felt a pair of lips press against his. Only one person would surely dare to do that.

Orochimaru felt his beloved's arms embrace him, holding him close, his arms embracing Kurama's body in return, deepening the kiss. Then he gasped into the other's mouth as he felt his lover's hands slide under the waistband of his pants, stroking his ass before the fingers started to tease the ring of muscle at his entrance. This was something new; Kurama had never been one to take the initiative before. The unusual behaviour was strangely arousing. Orochimaru's head moved to lie on Kurama's shoulder as he continued the administrations, not even flinching as a finger invaded his body. What did bring him out of his sexual stupor was his head lying against a well-defined chest.

'Wait a minute, Kurama isn't that tall.' Orochimaru thought. 'There is no chance that this is him, so who could it be?' Then his eyes snapped open. 'It can't be!' He saw white cloth below his head, and pale, milky skin. 'It's him. Great. Can the day get any worse?' He felt a second finger push inside. 'Scrap that, I think he's planning to fuck me!' His hand immediately gripped Youko's tail, bringing a growl from the other's lips. "I'm sorry." Orochimaru said, stroking the fur in apology. "I didn't want to hurt you, but I hoped that the touch would cause you some pleasure."


Itachi returned to the camp with his fish. He and Kisame had spent a while collecting the group's dinner, and he went to report his return to Orochimaru and Kurama. Iruka pointed him in the general direction where Orochimaru had disappeared to, and he followed the other Jounin's directions. It was a growl that caught his attention and he followed it. The sight that he saw made him blush. He had never thought that he would ever see the Snake Sannin like that, not since Orochimaru had spent the best part of three years chasing after him. Itachi cleared his throat, bringing Youko's attention to him. "Sorry for bothering you." Itachi said before leaving. He needed to track down Kisame as soon as he could. His shark wouldn't believe what he had just witnessed.

Youko smirked as he watched the other male leave. Once he had his way with the snake, he would want no other. "He's gone now, my dear snake." Youko said, returning his attention to Orochimaru's frame. "Now, where were we?" A second finger joined the first.

'Itachi, why did you leave?' Orochimaru thought, trying to ignore the fact that he knew just how he now seemed. He would have enjoyed this more had it have been his chosen lover. It was only then that Orochimaru actually thought of what he could do to get out of his sticky situation. The hand that had been stroking the tail returned to Youko's ass. 'There is only one thing for it.' It took a second for Orochimaru's hand to slide below the waistband of Youko's pants and roughly push three fingers into the fox's ass. The result was immediate. Youko gave a yelp of surprise and his hands flew to his ass. Orochimaru took the chance to run back towards the camp, Youko quickly on his tail.

The kitsune didn't try that hard to beat Orochimaru, he could easily have caught him with plants if he did, no the kitsune wanted him to believe that he was safe. It made what would happen later even more overpowering. He arrived at the camp a moment after the Sannin just in time to hear that he was going to be on watch, with Iruka no less. The look on Orochimaru's face was that of relief. 'The night is still young, snake-man.'


The two ninjas sat quietly in the darkness of the forest. "So tell me about yourself." Two golden orbs moved to rest on the Jounin. "I know about Shuichi, but he is only a fraction of you, isn't he?"

"You could say that." Youko said. "I am much older than he is. Older and much more powerful." He could see Iruka tense up. "Do you really want to know about me, Iruka-sensei?" Iruka hesitated for a moment before nodding. "You had your chance to back away, little dolphin." A gentle breeze blew through the trees, making the kitsune's hair move about. "My past isn't pleasant, not from start to present. Bloodshed and agony fills a big part."

'Why do I suddenly feel like running away?' Iruka asked himself. "Please continue."

"Very well. I guess it started when I was a cub, I watched as my entire family was killed. The murderers then took me as a slave. Young white and silver kitsunes are prized in areas of the world where I originated in. You can understand that I didn't remain in their hands for very long. I was bought by a wealthy demon, who wanted me as a... pet." The last word was spat out angrily. "A thief broke into my so-called master's home and stole me away. Only later did I realise that he was also a kitsune. That kitsune became almost like a father to me, teaching me a lot of the things I know. However I surpassed him in the end."

"What happened to him?" Iruka asked.

"Even to this day, I do not know for sure." Youko said. "I searched for him for many years, but in the end I had to give up. I turned to using the skills that I had been taught to survive. I worked perfectly fine until I met another demon thief named Kuronue. I was intrigued the moment I laid eyes on him. He was older and more experienced, and took me under his wing, so to speak. Alone, our abilities were... incomplete, but together and we filled each other's weaknesses. We quickly became inseparable. That was until he was killed on a 'job'." Iruka looked at the forest floor. "We had completed it; however, as we were escaping, his necklace snapped. He went back for his pendant and he was killed by bamboo." The kitsune's attention returned to the trees. "I met Yomi not long after. He was almost caught during a raid of his and I helped him out. He ended up sticking to me like glue. I guess he worshipped me or something. Anyway after a while things began to change. He started to disobey me, and that cost lives. I couldn't count the number of times that I had to save him. The only thing left for me to do was to cut the ties that bound us together." The gold eyes looked directly into brown. The brown eyes widened as though they had just caught what the kitsune was hinting. "I gave him a little parting present." Iruka could feel a cold touch move up his spine. "Let's just say that it was a present that he was just dying to see."

That was too much for Iruka, he thought that Orochimaru was bad, but this guy was worse! Without warning Iruka ran off into the trees. "Gotta run!" Iruka screamed as he ran into the night. Youko gave the ninja a bit of a head start before he took off after him. He quickly caught up and grabbed Iruka by his pants. "Let me go!" Iruka shouted as Youko dragged him back to where they had sat.

"You asked me to tell you about myself." Youko said, dropping him back on the stone. "That was very impolite of you to run away, you know." He sat beside Iruka. "I spent the next thousand years working alone. That way I wouldn't be let down by anyone other than myself. I was rarely let down, apart from 22 years ago when I was actually caught. I chose the boy, Shuichi, as my 'vessel'. You see, I was planning on leaving the world of humans the moment that I regained my strength, and I wanted a body that would suit me, not only intellectual, but who would have exceptional beauty."

'Vain creature.' Orochimaru thought from the trees where he was overhearing the conversation. 'Then again if it wasn't for his vanity, then I wouldn't have my Kurama.' The thought greatly amused the Sannin. His Kurama was nowhere nearly as vain as this creature was. He could imagine what Youko's fox form would be like. There was almost no doubt that he would have sleek silvery white fur from head to tail. Beautiful, soft and silky fur… he had to break that chain of thought before he would regret it. He knew that if he were not careful then Youko would be able to sense him. What he didn't know was that Youko Kurama already knew that he was there.

A small smile graced Youko's lips as he 'listened' to the plants. 'He obviously isn't tired of me yet.' He thought as he sent a small tendril of energy towards the Sannin, and his smirk turned into a feral grin when he heard the yelp.

Youko wasn't the only one to hear the yelp. Iruka heard it too, and the source of it was puzzling to him. However Youko got to his feet. "Where are you going?" Iruka asked.

"Oh, please excuse me, Iruka-sensei." Youko said, the smirk returning to his face. "I have some… business to take care of." The kitsune's tail waved slightly. "I'll be back as soon as it is complete." He then walked off into the forest, towards the struggling Sannin. "Orochimaru-sama." His soft voice said as it floated through the trees. "Are you so desperate for our earlier actions to continue?"

Orochimaru froze when he heard the soft voice. Then he fought harder against the grass around his ankles, breaking free just as he saw Youko's form. He then ran for it. 'I outran him before, I can do so again!' Orochimaru thought until he felt hot breath on his neck. 'Shit, this wasn't supposed to happen!'

Iruka couldn't help but feel relieved when Youko left, however he felt bad because his 'problem' had moved onto somebody else. 'I wonder who Youko is bothering now.' Iruka thought, then he saw a flicker of white out of the corner of his eye. Youko was clearly chasing something, and the ninja took a moment before he saw that it was Orochimaru. He watched as a vine tried to snare the snake, but Orochimaru avoided it, disappearing from view once more, Youko following quickly behind him. A few minutes later and a loud scream penetrated the air. That was too much for the Jounin and he ran back to the camp to get some comfort from somebody. He didn't care who it was, and he didn't care if he had to waken the rest of the camp to do so.


Itachi was half asleep when he felt himself being shaken awake. "Kisame, not tonight!" He grumbled as he pushed his annoyance away. "Go back to bed." He felt it again and he opened his eyes. "Kisame, I warned you…" He then saw that it wasn't the shark, instead it was a, very scared, Umino Iruka. "Iruka what's wrong?" He asked, and then he felt the Jounin throw himself against his chest, hugging him for all he was worth. He listened in silence as Iruka told him everything that he had witnessed. "Oroka hibe." Itachi muttered under his breath. "He hasn't changed much since he left Akatsuki all those years ago." He tried to prise the Jounin off, but he only clung on tighter. "Iruka, I can't breath!"

"Sorry." Iruka said as he let Itachi go. "What did you mean about him not having changed much?"

"He still falls for traps as he used to. His partner in Akatsuki, Sasori, used to set traps for him all the time, and even though Orochimaru knew that they were there, he still walked into them. I remember him crying like a girl to get freed." Itachi then took a moment to think. "There was this one time that Sasori was wanting to try out a new type of control over his puppets. He had Orochimaru to... err... model for him." He remembered the sight that he and Kisame had witnessed all those years ago. How Sasori had 'crucified' the snake Sannin. "Anyway I think his karma finally caught up with him."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, he always did like molesting younger boys, Iruka, even you must know that. His karma just kicked him in the ass, or rather stuck three fingers up there." Itachi laughed quietly. "This time he is the younger one being used and abused. I'll give him half an hour, and if the fox still isn't done with him, I'll go and put a stop to it." He then saw the door of the tent being pushed open. "There you are." Itachi said as Kisame stopped in his tracks. "You haven't seen a fox and a snake cavorting on your journey have you?" Kisame shrugged and walked to his sleeping bag, grumbling. "Don't worry, I'm sure that they won't be much farther than where you left them."

"Can I stay here tonight?" Iruka whimpered. "I don't want to be anywhere near that kitsune!" Itachi nodded and Iruka gave a shout of happiness.

"I'll take over the rest of your shift and do mine. Luckily I told that I'm the shift after yours." Itachi said. "Get some rest."

"Thank you, Itachi-san." Iruka said as Itachi vacated his bag, allowing Iruka to take his place.


"This started off as a game, Orochimaru-chan." Youko said as a hand roamed down Orochimaru's naked body. "However after your little play for power, I think you need to be taught a lesson." Youko smirked as he got a glare from the Sannin, his mouth having been gagged by a vine. "Aren't I lucky that you are bound like this? I do believe that if you were free, I wouldn't be able to do much, even if my other half is your beloved lover." He walked behind his captive, seeing the muscles bulge as though to fight his control. "Such a beautiful body. Had you been in the world I originated from, I would have taken you without a second thought." Orochimaru screamed through the vine when he felt Youko Kurama roughly push three fingers inside him. "How does it feel, Orochi-chan?" Youko licked the back of Orochimaru's neck. "Does it feel as good to you as it did to me?" His teeth grazed Orochimaru's shoulder. "You know what I'm going to do now, don't you?" He had the vine in Orochimaru's mouth retract. "I want to hear you scream."

Orochimaru knew too well what the kitsune intended. He knew that fighting Youko's control now would just lead to more pain and misery on his part, however he didn't have to be a willing party. "I hate you."

"That wasn't what you were thinking before we found out about your lies five years ago." Youko said. "Back then all you wanted was my body. You had the desire, but lacked the ability to fulfil that desire. I don't have such a problem. I take what I want by any means at my disposal." A moment later and Orochimaru was brought to his hands and knees. Youko suddenly paused. "It looks as though I have less time than I thought." He said quietly. Orochimaru didn't know what he meant, but he didn't know whether to be happy or afraid. The question was soon answered when he felt Youko roughly thrust into his body, making Orochimaru scream in pain. The kitsune hadn't even used any lubrication to make it easier. "Your scream is like music to my ears."


The attack was quick and violent. The only thing that Orochimaru could do was to cry and dig his nails into the ground as his body was violated repeatedly. He screamed so much that his voice was hoarse, and cried so much that he doubted that he could cry any more. Youko gave one last, violent, thrust and spilled his seed deep within the Sannin's body. "Just in time." Youko said, kissing the back of Orochimaru's neck. "Goodbye Orochi-chan." It took a moment for Orochimaru to realise what had been said, and by then he realised that Youko was no longer present, and he had been released from the plants that bound him. Not only that, but he had a heavy weight leaning on him.

Kurama's eyes opened, before he realised what was happening, and what Youko had done. Quickly he pulled back from Orochimaru when he realised what had happened. "Orochimaru!" Kurama said as he pulled the Sannin against his body, trying to offer him a small amount of comfort. "I'll kill him." He growled as he held Orochimaru tightly against him. "I'll bloody kill him." A moment later and he disappeared inside his mind before he confronted the kitsune.

"Youko Kurama, you do remember what I told you, don't you?" Kurama asked his other self. "I told you to keep your paws to yourself, and you couldn't even do that. I think you need punished." A moment later and a gold-looking collar and chain appeared around Youko's neck. "Your punishment is to be bound tightly and be my own little battery." Youko snarled as he tried to pull the collar off. "It won't work, not this time. It's specially designed for you in mind. I'll talk with you later." With that, Kurama left the howling fox in his mind.

Kurama's eyes moved to the trembling body in his arms. He hated to see anybody cry, especially his Orochimaru. Nobody deserved to be treated the way that Youko had treated him. Kurama looked around, using plants to locate and bring Orochimaru's clothing to him. He gently dressed his lover, taking care not to aggravate his lover's aching ass further. "I'm taking you back to the camp." He said simply as he lifted Orochimaru gently. "Everything will be fine, I promise you."


It took Kurama little time for him to get back to the camp, seeing Itachi on guard. 'Has it really been that long?' Kurama thought as he gave Itachi a slight nod as he passed him. "Youko won't be returning to his shift, neither will I." Kurama said. "I have greater things to worry about at the moment." His gaze moved to the man in his arms. "I'm sure that you understand." Itachi just nodded as Kurama disappeared into the tent that he and Orochimaru shared.

'Maybe I should have gone as soon as Iruka came to me.' Itachi thought. 'Maybe I could have prevented all this from happening.'


Kurama gently laid Orochimaru on the bag before removing the clothing to inspect the damage caused to his lover by his other half. "I'm sorry, this could hurt a bit." Kurama said, brushing hair out of Orochimaru's eyes. Kurama took some seeds out of his hair and used some of Youko's youki to make the seeds grow. He then pulled out a pestle and mortar to grind the leaves down, and then to the plants he added some massage oil that they had taken with them. Mixing them, they created an unpleasant-looking mixture. Already tired of grinding, the kitsune used more of Youko's energy to do the job that the grinding was to do. Sap mixed with oil to give a more fragrant mixture than what he had been given before. Kurama took a second bowl and filtered the unwanted material out, leaving the oil and the sap, the part that would be doing the healing. If treated right, it would have been identical to Tsunade's own healing salve, however neither really cared about that, only about the effects that it would have on helping Orochimaru's body to heal from the attack.

"What are you planning on doing now?" Orochimaru asked, guarded. He knew that he could trust Kurama, but he had to know.

"Something invasive." Kurama said. "The moment that you feel in the least bit uncomfortable, tell me." It didn't sound like a request; it sounded more like an order. Green eyes met gold. "Promise me that you'll tell me." Orochimaru only nodded. Kurama encouraged plants to slowly approach Orochimaru's ass, and the thought of the flora entering his body made the other whimper, when he felt the leaves push inside, he could feel the internal wounds opening again. Kurama could see the discomfort in the other's eyes, however he remembered how Orochimaru treated him with his own version of kindness, now he had to do the same for his lover. Again using a flood of youki, the sap held within the plants exploded inside Orochimaru's body, making Orochimaru yelp in shock. A kiss soothed Orochimaru's shock. "Sit up, love."

Orochimaru did so, and the moment that he did, he could feel the liquid flood from his body, and he leaned against his kitsune. Kurama held Orochimaru close as he watched as the contents that had stuck to his beloved's insides get removed. At least now he could take note of what the possible damage could be, and he saw a lot of blood mixed with the sap and semen. "Kurama-kun, please, I need you to heal me." Orochimaru whispered in Kurama's ear. "Please, I need you to do this so very much." Kurama pulled back slightly and kissed Orochimaru. He could feel the desperation in the kiss as Orochimaru pressed harder against him, even though he was bruised and hurting. He was the one to pull back from the kiss. "Let me tend to your wounds. It would be better if you were on your hands and knees for this."

Orochimaru was reluctant, however he knew that Kurama wouldn't force him into doing something that he was uncomfortable with. He forced his body to relax as Kurama dribbled some of the oil onto his back and slowly rubbed the oil into the skin. He started at the shoulders and slowly worked down Orochimaru's back, feeling every muscle slowly relax. Suddenly Kurama stopped. "What's wrong?" Orochimaru mumbled sleepily. "What's the matter?"

"I've run out of back to do." Kurama said with a gentle smile.

"I want more." Orochimaru said, wanting more of the loving contact that the kitsune had given him. The kitsune's hand slowly caressed the white skin, hesitantly getting closer to Orochimaru's ass. He knew that Orochimaru wouldn't just say that he wanted something to please Kurama; no he would only say it if that was, indeed, what he desired. Kurama pulled back his hand and smeared some of the salve over his fingers. "Please." Orochimaru said, breathlessly. He couldn't believe the need that he felt for his lover to touch him, to take him. He now understood what Kurama felt that night so long ago.

Kurama gently touched his fingers to Orochimaru's opening. Before he could do anything, Orochimaru pressed back against the fingers, impaling himself with a hiss of pain. Kurama tried to pull his fingers out, but stopped when Orochimaru ordered him to. Instead he slowly pushed them back in, making the Sannin moan happily. "Feel better?" Orochimaru nodded as Kurama removed his fingers, making him protest. "More oil." Kurama whispered into Orochimaru's ear. "We do want you to get better quickly, don't we?" He couldn't help but lick Orochimaru's neck when he heard Orochimaru's answer. "My gorgeous snake, we shall have you back to full working order before you know it."


Kurama was the first to waken the next day. He smiled at the sleeping Sannin who was sleeping with his head on Kurama's chest. Slowly he rolled Orochimaru onto his back, so not to waken his sleeping lover, and dressed. He left the tent and saw that the others were beginning to pack up. Then they turned to Kurama as though he held all the answers. "Aren't you ready to go yet? Itachi asked the redhead.

"No, not yet." Kurama said. "Orochimaru is exhausted, and I don't want to waken him. If you all go on ahead, we will catch up with you later." Iruka opened his mouth to object. "Iruka-sensei, please don't object. You have very little idea as to how Orochimaru is feeling." Kurama said harshly. "I may not be a Jounin, but I am his lover." With that the kitsune went back into the tent, returning to the position that he had woken up in, including returning Orochimaru to his original position, making the snake snuggle closer. Kurama pushed the ebony locks away from Orochimaru's face and smiled. Orochimaru looked so peaceful when asleep, Kurama's hand stroked down Orochimaru's side, to his hip and back up.

"Next time, tell me if you're going somewhere." Orochimaru said.

"Sorry, love." Kurama said as Orochimaru raised himself slightly. "I didn't want to waken you." His arms wound themselves around Orochimaru's neck, keeping the Sannin close. "Anyway we have all the time in the world. I sent the others on ahead." A leg moved around the Sannin's waist, dropping hints to what the kitsune wanted. Hints that Orochimaru would never miss.

Orochimaru's teeth grazed the skin of Kurama's neck. At first all he wanted to do was to bite and place a cursed seal there, but that had all changed. The kitsune had stolen his mind and his heart, and in return he had a gorgeous, loyal, partner. Someone that he would never sacrifice, no matter what he was offered. He moved to lie between Kurama's legs. "Please, I need you, Orochimaru-sama." The kitsune thrust his hips upwards, making sure that the snake Sannin knew that he was serious. Their erections rubbed against the others, when Orochimaru pulled away. "Orochimaru-sama." Kurama whines. "I want more." However Orochimaru stayed back. "Please, Orochimaru-sama!" Kurama said, seeing a fire on Orochimaru's eyes.

"Show me how much you want me." The snake Sannin said, lust filling his voice. "Show me and then I'll decide." His hungry gaze was glued to Kurama's body.

'So he wants a show.' Kurama thought. 'I'll give him such a show that he will have to give me what I want.' He moved to sit in front of Orochimaru. ‘I’ll show him just how good I am.’ His eyes met Orochimaru’s, and licked his lips. He could see that the Sannin’s hands were closed. Kurama’s hands started at his neck, at the place where Orochimaru’s teeth had grazed the skin, and they then glided over the skin on his chest, before they rested against his nipples. He spent some time playing with them before he carried on with his plan.

‘I knew that this was a bad idea.’ Orochimaru thought as he watched his lover’s hands slide down his body. He wanted the kitsune right there, but he forced himself to stop. However he couldn’t stop the small moan when Kurama’s right hand wrapped around his cock.

“What’s the matter, Orochimaru-sama?” Kurama asked as he stroked himself. “You look a little… flustered.” His tongue licked his lips as he batted his eyelashes to add extra effect. He could see the Sannin’s hands clench tighter. “Orochimaru-sama?” That time, the tone was lower and more flirtatious. ‘So close, only a little more and he’ll be mine!’ He moved to be on his hands and knees, parading his body in front of Orochimaru, however that wasn't the only thing; following his mental command, the rose in his hair transformed into his rose whip, without the thorns. "Watch, Orochimaru-sama. Watch as I perform just for you." The whip crawled along Kurama's back before it sought out his entrance, and once it found what it sought, it impaled the kitsune in a single thrust, making the redhead moan.

The sight of the whip moving in and out of the kitsune’s body entranced Orochimaru. He couldn't take the tempting sight much longer and he dragged the whip out, plunging his cock into the abandoned hole, making both himself and the whimpering kitsune moan. Neither of the participants lasted long. It was the kitsune who came first, his muscles clamping around Orochimaru’s hard length, making the snake join him soon after.


It took them a while before they became aware of a muffled shout of ‘Springtime of Youth’. Orochimaru’s eyes shot open and he saw Kakashi and Gai staring at them. The Sannin’s angry shouts could be heard half a mile away.
