Mission

No more Tsume/Shibi in this fic. I may make a side fic with them though.

LINE BREAK!!

Shino and Kiba met the next day in the park to talk a bit before they went to their fittings for the ceremonial robes. It was a nice enough day, sunny without any clouds. Kiba was uncharacteristically quiet, so Shino poked at him a couple times.

“What’s wrong? Don’t you dare say it’s nothing.”

“I was just thinking about our wedding. The Inuzuka tradition, I don’t think I can-“

“Then don’t. Let me. You can just lie back and I’ll do everything.” Shino spoke without a hint of embarrassment or hesitation.

“Are you sure, Shino?” Kiba had a relieved look in his eyes.

“I’m sure, Kiba. I’ve been thinking about it for awhile.” Shino had been doing more than thinking about it. He had been hoping to bring it up and ask Kiba if he was willing to let Shino take the reigns, so to speak. Before another word could be said, a messenger bird landed on Shino’s shoulder and dropped a scroll into his hand. As the bird flew off, Shino opened the scroll and read it, eyes narrowing.

“The Hokage wishes to see us both right now. It’s urgent.”

“It figures Tsunade would want us to go out on a mission 3 days before our wedding. I hope it’s nothing too time-consuming.” Kiba frowned and took off along the rooftops toward the Hokage tower. Shino paused a moment, reflecting on what Kiba had just said. They were getting married. He smiled and took off after Kiba.

At the Hokage tower, Kiba entered through a window in the mission room while Shino elected to go through the door beside it. The mission room was empty except for Iruka and Kakashi. The latter had the former pinned up against the wall and was trying to persuade him to do Icha Icha related things with him in the closet. Iruka shot the boys a grateful look and ducked under Kakashi’s arm.

“Shino, Kiba! How nice to see you!” Kakashi, however, was giving them a look that would have killed them twice over if it could have.

“Don’t get too excited, we’re on the way to see the old lady.” Kiba grumbled. Shino poked him in the side with his elbow.

“Be respectful! Tsunade is the Hokage and deserves more than old lady jokes!”

“But she IS an old lady. Go see her so I can molest Iruka. Please?” Iruka turned and threw a punch at Kakashi’s head, but it was blocked and soon he was trapped in a very compromising position. “Out,” growled Kakashi. They hurried out the door, Shino looking apologetically at Iruka. Down a hall, up two flights of stairs and down another hall brought them to Tsunade’s office. Shizune opened the door and ushered them in as soon as Kiba knocked on the door. Tsunade was sitting behind her huge desk rubbing her temples and looking down at a piece of paper.

“It took you long enough to get here. On your way out tell Kakashi if he doesn’t stop molesting Iruka in the closet he won’t be allowed in the building while Iruka’s working.”

“Apologies, Tsunade-sama. We were in the park when we got your message and when we got here Kakashi and Iruka-“

“Were fucking around instead of on a mission and doing paperwork, respectively. I get it. Now that you’re here, I need you two to pack up and leave immediately.” Shino looked slightly perturbed that he had been interrupted. Tsunade continued heedlessly. “Two rogue ninjas have been spotted near our village heading toward Fire. One uses chakra-based attacks and the other appears to have… a nin-cat. You two are uniquely suited, as you can now see. Akamaru will not be able to join you, however. Your mother has arranged for one of the clan’s dogs to accompany you. Meet Kouji.” The door opened to admit a massive nin-dog covered in shaggy grey hair and stood as high as Shino’s shoulder.

“Kouji! How ya doin’ man?” Kiba was ecstatic to see the giant block of muscle and fur. To Shino’s surprise, the dog replied in a low, gruff voice.

“I’ve been better. You mom has me training puppies. Puppies! I’m looking forward to an actual job.”

“Enough catch-up! Here’s the coordinates, get out of here!” Tsunade threw a scroll at Shino’s head, which was caught, of course, and gestured out the door. Shino, Kiba and Kouji hurried out the door and downstairs to find Kakashi sheepishly tied upside-down in the corner of the mission room. He appeared to have something stuffed in his mouth. Iruka was sitting peacefully at his desk writing out an assignment.

“Oh, hi boys. Kakashi won’t be a problem today. He decided to be a good boy. Right, honey?”

“Mmmmph!”

“That’s what I thought. Have a nice mission, boys!” They waved at Iruka and Kakashi and hurried out. Once outside, Kiba heaved a sigh.

“Man, remind me to NEVER make Iruka mad!”

“What makes you think I won’t do that to you if you make ME mad, Kiba?”

“Now, Shino. Why would I want to make you mad? It’s in my best interest to keep you happy.”

“What, precisely, do you mean by that?”

“Umm, gotta go pack!” Kiba took off running, leaving Shino and Kouji alone.

“That pup’s been putting his foot in his mouth since he was old enough to talk. Get used to it now, kid.”

“One of the reasons I love him.” Shino smiled softly behind his jacket and took off toward his own home to pack.
