Fear and Love Part III (Kakashi X OC)

Escape and Rescue

"I feel gross and disgusting and dirty and I need to shower and brush my teeth and go to sleep in our nice silky sheets and never get out of bed ever again." Tsuki was frustrated,"And I'm exhausted and I hate having to mold my chakra all the time!"

Kakashi sat against the wall, his hands pressed together in a praying motion resting against his lips. He was in deep thought, trying his best to devise a strategy to escape. He too had been frustrated as four days had passed since they had been captured. The tension between him and Tsuki never seemed to subside after their first initial fight.

He momentarily pulled down his mask and scratched at his scruffy face that had now been covered by a thick layer of stubble since they hadn't any access to a shower,"Hey at least they let us use the bathroom. I need to shave my face, this is so itchy!" Both of his hands clawed at his jawline, trying to get rid of the almost unbearable itch,"How do people grow beards?! This is awful!"

"Kakashi, hate to break it you, but you not being able to shave is the least of our problems." Tsuki rolled her eyes, her annoyances and current situation caused her to have a very short mouth.

"Oh what, I can't complain about anything?!" Kakashi immediately got angry,"I'm sorry I'm trying to take a moment to focus on trivial things so I don't have a complete breakdown at the fact that my pregnant wife has a deadly jutsu cast on her and that were stuck in this prison waiting for 'Mother' to come do god knows what to us!"

"It was a fucking joke, Kakashi! Remember? We laugh at our pain? Fuck me for trying to cope." Tsuki crossed her arms.

Kakashi let out a frustrated sigh, "I'm just gonna stop talking. I'm officially withdrawing from this conversation. Just let me think."

Tsuki scoffed, "Well I don't know what you're thinking so hard about. You know our only means of escape is if Rahyō dispels his jutsu or if you and I are presented with a very lucky opportunity to make a covert escape without alerting or fighting anyone. And that's assuming that if we somehow made it out of this jail cell we'd know exactly where the exit is and don't get lost trying to find our way out. AND that's if we even know where the fuck we are if we were to make it out of their hideout. AND-"

"I know, Tsuki." Kakashi interrupted her, "I've thought over this a million times now and I'm well aware that that's our only option."

"Then why do you keep trying to come up with something else?!"

"I'm sorry for wanting to attempt to figure out a safer option. I'm just trying my best... that's all." Kakashi huffed and fell silent as his mind raced with a million scenarios of what could go wrong should they attempt to escape.

"I don't know whether it's day or night right now but I noticed a trend..." Kakashi spoke after ten minutes of silence went by.

"Whenever they bring us the third meal of the day they only come in with two guards instead of five, right?" Tsuki finished his thought for him.

Kakashi's head snapped over in her direction, since they were generally weren't going on mission nowadays he forgot just how observant and smart she really was. He knew there was a reason she was his First Lieutenant in the war.

He whispered to keep his voice down in case the guards outside the door were listening, "So you noticed too, huh? I wonder if that third meal means it's nighttime and they don't staff as many guards at night." Tsuki nodded.

His dog-like sense of hearing also picked up on a detail that Tsuki hadn't, "When they come in, it sounds like they have some Kunai and shuriken jingling around in their tool belts."

Tsuki chimed in, reminding Kakashi just why their hive mind earned them the nickname the Onaji duo, "If we can take them down, we can steal their weapons and make a run for it?"
