Rehabbing the Dobe

I apologize I accidentally skipped a chapter so I am re-uploading the last few chapters I published of this story.

I do not, and never will own Naruto. This story is yoai (boy x boy love) for those of you who dislike that I suggest you not read this. There is disturbing content toward the end of this chapter, but it is not explicit. Just very wrong on so many levels.

Rehabbing the Dobe

Chapter 6: Painful

"Please tell us what happened to you, what happened between you and Sasuke. Did he do something to you?"

Naruto jerked away, "NO!"

"Please, something happened. Sasuke is going before the elders tomorrow morning. What did he do?" Iruka drew the child back to his embrace.

Naruto felt his legs give out and Iruka guided him to the floor to sit as he held the boy to his chest.

"Sasuke didn't do anything to me. Gorou. He-he..." Naruto felt the build up of tears.

'Gorou, Gorou, Gorou...That name sounds familiar,' Iruka wracked his brain as he felt the boy shaking in his grip, "Shhh, its ok, we're here." Iruka rubbed his back to calm him.

"Does he have to be here?" Naruto nodded toward his other sensei. He felt such shame overwhelming him, "I didn't want him to see me like this." Naruto sniffed and looked at his former teacher through reddening eyes.

"Naruto?" Kakashi sounded hurt, "Please don't push me away again. I want to help you."

"How can you not be disgusted by me? I'm pathetic. I can't even protect myself anymore. I'm weak. I'm dirty," he shuddered and the rest was barely audible, "I'm just a used piece of filth."

"No, no, no. Naruto, don't you ever believe that!" Iruka continued to try and comfort Naruto. Naruto let out a few shaky breaths, "Naruto, who is Gorou, what did he do?"

"Nakamura Gorou, 'member him?" Naruto sniffed again and rubbed his nose on the back of his hand as Iruka held him and rocked the two of them back and forth, "He graduated from the academy last year, but he took the test the year I graduated." Iruka's mouth formed and 'o' as he realized.

"I remember him, he seemed to have had a crush on you, but he was afraid of what the other boys would have thought of him liking another boy, much less you, no offense of course," Naruto shook his head he knew exactly what his sensei meant. Iruka shot a glance at Kakashi and nodded toward the door. The man gave up and walked out closing it as he left, "I'll get us some dinner. You must be starving Naruto." Kakashi called as he left the two alone to talk.

"What happened then?" Iruka prompted for him to tell his story.

Naruto's shaking became worse, "G-Gorou, hu-he t-tried t-to t-take ad-advantage of m-me." Naruto broke down once again as he buried his face into Iruka's vest. The man did his best to calm the boy finally lifting him up and laying him back on the futon and joining him in an embrace that finally quieted his sobs and calmed him.

"Its OK now. You are safe. We will not let that boy near you," Iruka was having trouble fighting the rage down. He would find that kid and make him pay, "Iruka stroked his hair as he held the boy until he fell into a light sleep then he slipped from underneath the frail body and left to help Kakashi."
"Damn-it! That little bastard!"

"What, what's got you so riled up? That kid Gorou do something that bad?" Kakashi didn’t look away from the wok as he added the sliced vegetables to the oil where the meat already resided." This kid. A couple times when Naruto was still back at the academy...I caught him spying. I worried that he planned to hurt Naruto, but when I confronted him he broke down and admitted to having a crush on the boy. He said he was afraid of what the other kids would think of him liking a boy and liking Naruto of all people." Kakashi frowned over his stir-fry.

"Go on. I can tell there is more," Kakashi knew he best step away from the hot oil so he turned and took a seat at the table in the small kitchen he had been puttering around in.

"Gorou had taken a few mementos from Naruto's desk. I made him give them back. Gorou liked to watch Naruto...in the school showers. One time I had made Naruto stay late because he had played a prank involving black ink a paint brush and Uchiha Sasuke's forehead. Don't ask, I really don’t know how he did it, but he put the Kanji symbol for donkey on the boy's head," Iruka smiled at the memory. He wiped an errant tear away and sighed then he remembered what he had been talking about, "After I made him scrub down the entire classroom I sent him off to the showers to clean up. He often had to go without hot water in those days, and nutritional food," Again Iruka sighed. "I was taking the rubbish out to the back to dispose of it when I found Gorou standing on a crate looking into the boy's showers. He had him self exposed and he was...I caught him, ahem, pleasuring himself while he watched Naruto showering," Iruka blushed crimson.

"Kuso! Damn-it! Why didn't you do anything?"

"What was I supposed to do? I talked to the boy about the inappropriate behavior. He cried and apologized to me. He promised never to spy on Naruto or practice such behaviors at school. I didn't want to tell Naruto he was already emotionally fragile about...other issues."

"If you mean the abuse Naruto has suffered I was made aware of it. Lady Tsunade examined his body the night we took him away to work out his issues. I am assuming that you know too. How did you find out?"

"Naruto told me," Iruka felt tears collecting on remembrance of that first time he cried to Iruka. Kakashi frowned somewhat, "I wish I had been a better mentor. He should have felt comfortable to come to me with his problems. How bad was it?"

"I can't tell you, I promised him I'd never repeat it. I don't want to frankly. It hurts to even think about what those monsters have done to him."

"Please tell me something. He is so hurt. I only want to help him," Kakashi begged.

"You will have to ask him. It is not my place to retell his story. I can't risk loosing his trust, and you have to earn it. Naruto doesn't trust you." Iruka regretted being so blunt, but it was the truth, "Naruto, he cares about you greatly...but so many he has cared for have let him down somehow. Even I have. I see now how Troubled that boy Nakamura Gorou was. He was obsessed with Naruto. I am not surprised. Naruto has an untainted beauty. Despite the pains and wrongs inflicted upon him he still carries that virginal innocence, that emotional purity. He is a little saint, with a quirky and sometimes devilish personality.

"Kakashi considered this, "Could you take over in here I'd like to go sit with him." Iruka smiled and nodded. "Please be careful. I am afraid of what he may try to do in this state. He can be very unpredictable, even more so then his normal self."

Kakashi wondered how unpredictable was unpredictable, "There were no sharp objects left in that room were there?"

"Of course not! Well...He'd never attack you or me, but he might try to harm himself if he felt to stressed. Just go and sit with him. He'll welcome the company." Iruka waved him to leave as he turned to the stove in time to save the vegetables from sticking to the wok. Kakashi let himself back into the room Naruto appeared to be sleeping so he just sat himself down next to the futon and reclined against the wall.

"So Iruka-sensei kicked you out of the kitchen after all?" Naruto rolled over and looked at the man, "I don't plan on cutting myself up...this time." The man felt slightly uncomfortable. Were the walls here that thin, or was that just Naruto's hearing, "Don't act so surprised. I have a fox demon in me she has excellent ears. I just borrow them from time to time." Naruto lay there grinning.

"How are you feeling? Did you get hurt?"

"No…not really physically," The boy let out a pained breath, "Sasuke came before it went too far." Naruto was so conflicted. He wanted to let his sensei in but he was scared. He didn't know what bothered him. Could it have been fear of being rejected. Disgusting his teacher. Pity he would see in that one eye? Doubt?

Kakashi-sighed, "What ever happened to that happy go lucky kid. I miss him."

"I'm sorry sensei. That was just my mask. I am broken and used," He said still smiling but his eyes were so pained. It took all of Kakashi's fortitude to look into those eyes, "If you knew the things I have done…that have been done to me. You would not want to know me. I think it is better that you not know. Iruka-sensei knows most of it. He won't tell I am glad for that."

"Why can't you trust me. I could never be disgusted by you. I never meant to push you away. You just reminded me of someone I cared about. It sometimes hurt at look at you. Did I ever tell you about my mentor?" Naruto shook his head, "Minato-sensei was a great man. He was my team's sensei. He looked a lot like you. He had a similar attitude to yours and an outlook on life that nearly mirrored yours. He died almost fifteen years ago. I missed him terribly. So did the entire village. You see Minato was also known as Yandaime Hokage," Naruto's expression saddened. He rolled away and began to cry softly, "Naruto? Please don't cry."

"I-I'm s-sor-ry. I wish I could have changed things. I wish I was dead. The people loved him. I know I have heard he was a great man," Naruto sobbed.

"There is something you need to know. Something I kicked myself for not seeing. That night the young man who was my teacher and idol. He sealed that demon into you. He did it because he loved this village and it's people dearly. The only thing he could have loved more then the village was his son-"

"I probably killed him too," Naruto cut in.

"Well actually you nearly did," Naruto gasped, "You almost killed Minato's son when you gave up on yourself and wasted away in that hospital."

Naruto rolled over and looked into his teacher's one exposed eye, "What are you saying?"

"Stop it! Stop acting like you are stupid. I know what you're really capable of. Stop hiding yourself from me and everybody else who loves you!" Kakashi did not know why he was shouting at the boy it just felt like he was being taken for a ride and he wasn't about to allow his student to continue fooling himself.

"WHY?" Naruto screamed through sobs pushing himself up, "Why would he do this to his own son! That Bastard! All I ever wanted was a mother and a father. I wanted to feel safe. I never wanted to be beaten! I never wanted those men touching me like that! Oh Kami! The things they did to me, they made me do to them. I want to vomit every time I think about it. Why did I have to be the one to carry the burden. I was a baby. I was not even a day old and I was given the responsibility of an entire village. All I ever got as thanks was scorn! I hate him!"

Kakshi's jaw dropped he thought Naruto would be glad to know about his father. This was not what he had in mind, "You don't mean that Nar-"

"I HATE HIM!" Naruto on his knees began pounding the futon, "I hate-hate-HATE HIM!" He began clawing at himself in his rage. Kakashi dove and embraced the boy.

"Shh-shh-shhhh, Calm down. It's OK. Please don't hurt yourself anymore," Kakashi began rocking Naruto. Naruto grabbed the man's vest with bloody fingers and clung to him. He was sobbing with renewed vigor. It was his only outlet. Kakashi's mind reeled as he patted the boy's head, 'What have they done to you little one. If I ever fine those responsible I WILL KILL THEM!' Kakashi let Naruto cry himself out. Soon the boy's sobs quieted and the rumbling of his stomach interrupted them, "You need to eat something. Iruka has probably finished dinner." Naruto nodded and allowed Kakashi to help him up.

Iruka was plating the food. His face was ashen but he seemed to be at least pretending he had not heard Naruto's pained screams. He did flinch at the sight of Naruto's arms. Kyuubi was working on them, but she had yet to regain much chakra and thought it was faster then any normal human. Naruto was healing slowly. Kakashi lead the boy to the table. Naruto sat and waited for his teachers to take a seat. Their meal was eaten quietly. No one made eye contact with anyone else. Then Iruka cleared the dishes and Kakashi took the boy to the bathroom to clean his self-inflicted wounds. They put Naruto to bed deciding shifts should be taken to ensure the boy did not harm himself again...

...Sasuke paced his living room. He growled to himself as he thought about what Naruto must be feeling and he was not there to comfort his dobe...

...Gorou was released from the Hospital that night. Two black-ops-nins picked him up and took him to get his things then he and his parents were taken to a secret location. When they cleared out two different ANBU swept the boy's bedroom and the rest of the house. There were a few interesting things collected for the Hokage to look over. In a shoe box under the boy's bed; they found... Messy scrawled test papers with the barely legible name of Uzumaki Naruto. There were pictures of him with team 7. There was his graduation picture. There were love notes Nakamura had written but never sent.

"Damn, that kid's messed up. Look at this," The man held up a piece of orange cloth by a pair of tweezers. There was a white swirl embroidered on it. It was stiff and smelled rancid with what they could only assume was Nakamura's semen. It was collected in an evidence bag. There were pictures of Naruto that had obviously been taken without his knowledge. Pictures of him in the academy showers, naked. One in particular when he was sleeping. The picture had been taken from outside his apartment (which mysteriously burnt down about the time Naruto was hospitalized), "How long has this kid been doing this?"

Neither of these men had ever been particularly fond of the Uzumaki trouble maker, but this was frightening even to the seasoned black-ops. Naruto was a child still. He was only fourteen and this boy had been stalking him for at least three years. The final straw were the pictures of him in the hospital. Nakamura posed with a comatose Naruto, who had taken the picture is unknown. He had the boy posed in sexually explicit positions and there were a few showing Nakamura in the act of molesting the boy. There was a piece off pale green material that matched the hospital gown from the pictures. It was soiled like the orange cloth, "This kid is sick. We need to check with hospital surveillance. Why was this not discovered earlier?" Before they left they flipped a coin. One headed to the hospital. The unlucky one headed to the Hokage's office to give her the report and show her the evidence, he cringed at the possible reactions she might have. Everybody in the village knew she had a soft spot for the boy. She viewed him as a little brother. She was going to go ballistic, probably bring the whole tower down this time...
