Notes:

There are chapters that have story line as well as the explicit material.
If you're just here for 'nudes,' chapter 4, chapter 16, chapter 17, and chapter 28 :o Or if you want to avoid them.
This is a love and war story not intended to be porn, so hopefully those of you who don't enjoy reading explicit material can power through!

This is my first time writing fanfic, so hope you can enjoy!

"So, Gaara was made Kazekage, huh?" Naruto asked, staring at the ground.

Tsunade-sama closed her eyes and sighed resignedly. Kakashi, Guy, Naruto, and Sakura all looked at each other.

"I was going to wait to discuss this until after your next mission but considering that the Village Hidden in the Sand is dealing with confrontation from the Akatsuki also, I don't have much choice. Now that Gaara has been made Kazekage, the elders of the Sand and the Leaf feel it's a good idea to solidify our alliance with a marriage. Therefore, I'm going to recommend Keiko go with you on this mission," said Tsunade-sama.

Kakashi's eyes widened, "Keiko? Why?"

Tsunade leaned forward onto the desk and opened one eye, "You're usually pretty quick on the uptake Kakashi. I'm surprised you'd be the one to ask. It has been decided that Keiko would be a good match for Gaara-sama considering her past."

"Does she know about this yet?" asked Guy.

"Not yet," Tsunade shrugged.

"Oh, she's going to love that," growled Naruto.

"Doesn't this kind of, I don't know, violate some freedom of choice?" Sakura asked.

"Although Keiko has been adopted into the Village Hidden in the Leaf, she is also not originally one of us. She has been an ambassador to many worlds and is the best choice. I'm not really sure what to do yet if she refuses, but this is what the village councils asked for," said Tsunade.

"Then why not get a volunteer?" Asked Kakashi.

Tsunade placed her hand over her forehead, "I didn't bring this up in order to discuss your feelings on the subject, or mine for that matter. Keiko has a strong will but she also has a sense of duty. I hoped to hear the same from you," she growled in exasperation. "You leave in the morning." With a waive of her other hand, she barked, "Dismissed!"

The rest disbursed as Kakashi stepped out alone into the hall, staring at the wooden wall in silence. Keiko was his neighbor in the leaf village. She had come to them about a decade ago after she had been found unconscious in the woods badly injured. She didn't seem all that unusual on this world, long white hair, what appeared to be painted stripes on her face, and a crescent moon on her forehead. Her long kimono and a small fluffy white boa that had been turned black in the mud were the only unusual features. They assumed she was a rich ambassador and took her to the hospital in the Hidden Leaf.

They didn't know at the time she was Inu-Yōkai. None of her kind really existed in this world save for the tailed beasts. She had paraded as a human for most of her time in the Hidden Leaf after seeing how Naruto was ostracized growing up. The truth didn't really come out until the Village Hidden in the Sound attacked with Orochimaru at Chūnin exams and some of her powers emerged. While it came as a shock to her comrades, they were grateful for the lives that she saved. She had already commanded the love and respect from her comrades as had Naruto, so the subject of her demon part was little discussed until now.

She and Kakashi had grown close. They kept it quiet because of Kakashi's prior roll in the ANBU black ops and now his role as a sensei. They didn't want their relationship to be a distraction until his newest batch of students was well on their way. He could see her face in his mind's eye. It was a hardened face when she first arrived in the village; always stoic. He had watched it soften over time as she took to the villagers, especially the kids in the academy. Her laughter made Kakashi's heart leap. He didn't even realize he had started making his way home as he reminisced about their strolls as they stole away together at night to look at the stars. He would hold her under an oak tree by the water. They first made love under that oak tree, hurried though it was. They didn't want to be caught before they were ready to share their happiness with the rest of the village. When they weren't stargazing, there were times she went on runs through the forest to keep her senses sharp. She would try to take in every sight, sound, and smell as she sped through the trees. Kakashi would be in her wake. There was something about her that was fierce and primal that had given way to something gentle when they were alone.

He never had a serious girl before her. He didn't want anyone treating her like gossip as if she were just another fling. He couldn't let her reputation be tarnished like that. When they were ready, he wanted to let everyone know he claimed her as she claimed him. Now that she was going to be taken away from him, he wished he would have told the world.

He didn't want to tell her about the council's decision. He didn't know how he would tell her. Just the night before she told him she thought she might be pregnant. He hadn't had the guts to bring it up to Tsunade in front of the others. What was he going to do? His eyes narrowed angrily. He'd be damned if he let someone else raise his kid.

As he knocked on the door to her apartment, the door swung open. She wasn't there, but a note sat on the shoe rack in the entryway:

Kakashi,

I am sure you have heard by now the plans that the Hidden Leaf and Sand have for me. Our relationship with them is already very fragile . I have gone to speak with Gaara-sama regarding my decision so hopefully war can be prevented. I know that if I am unsuccessful, I will likely be put in prison for going rogue, but I have to do what I think is right.

Love Always,

Keiko

Kakashi skimmed over the letter again. No. Once the elders found out about this, Keiko would be put in prison for sure. A surge of anger and sorrow coursed through him behind an expressionless mask. He could ask Tsunade-sama to make this mission official, but what if telling her made matters worse? Torn between chasing after her and between taking the letter to Tsunade, he stood there, unmoving.
