What you are, I'm not

Hello, one little note. Kike is changed to Kai. I have been thinking about his name, it just doesn't seem right. So now it's Kai. Hope you like it!

Chapter 2

Shiba couldn't believe it. The small human sitting there with long hair, slim body and wearing a kimono was a male! That just couldn't be possible. There was no way. Without a word he walked up to the smaller male (?) and grabbed the front of the kimono. He pulled it aside and put his hands on the chest. No breasts. No fluffy, big breasts. Only a flat male chest. Shiba started to pull a little more in the kimono but two small hands over his stopped him. He looked down at the hands and then to the face of the owner.

”You want to take it off?”

Shiba could only nod. Himeko slowly stood up and started to take the kimono off. He let it drop off his shoulders and slide down his body. Letting cm after cm of pale skin show. It slided down his back and hips, showing of the slim body. Then it dropped to the ground and he was standing there. Naked. In front of Shiba. Shiba just stared at him. Then he turned his head away. Himeko saw the look and bend down and picked the kimono up and put it back on. Just as he had sat back down Risko walked in. He felt the atmosphere omedelbet and turned to Shiba with an cold glare.

”What did you do Shiba?”

Shiba shrugged and then stood up.

”He can sleep in my hut. That would be the safest after all.” Risko only nodded.

”Good, after he's gotten some food I'll have Kai help him to your hut. Okay?” Shiba nodded and then went outside. He saw some men lurking around Riskos' hut. Wanting to see the new addition to the camp. The rumors about the ”cute girl” had already spread through the camp.

”Okay guys listen up! I found a person in the forest today. A male. He's just like us, hunted. Some men tried to kill him, but I saved him. Unfortunately they broke his ankle so he'll be living with us until he's healed. He's not to be touched. UNDERSTAND?!”

All the men nodded and then ran away as quickly as possible, either to get away from Shiba or to tell others. That person, male or female, was under Shibas protection and no one dared to go against him. He was a good leader and fair, but if you went against him he could kill you in an instent.

”Mister.”

He turned and saw Himeko standing in the doorstep. He quickly walked up to him and picked him up.

”You shouldn't walk on your own. Tomorrow I'm going out to find a staff or something you can use as support.”

Himeko smiled at him and nodded and Shiba had to turn his head away so Himeko wouldn't see his blush. He carried him to his hut, but stopped a few times and let some men talk to him and Himeko. Just so their curiosity would be satisfied. Soon they reached the hut and went inside. It was a simple, round hut with a big bunch of furs on the left side, a fireplace in the middle and pots, tools and weapons on the right side. Shiba put him down on the furs and went over to the other side to fix with a pot and some meat. He started the fire again and soon the water in the pot was boiling. Then he put some vegetables in it and then the meat.

”Are you going to eat that Mister?” Shiba looked up and saw Himeko come crawling on all fours. He dragged himself towards Shiba and the pot.

”What do you mean?”

Himeko crawled over to the pot and picked the meat up with the tools. Then he put it down on the fur again. He put his hand in a pocket and pulled out some herbs. Shiba looked at them suspiciously.

”Risko-sama gave these to me.”

He broke them down and put it in the pot. He then started to stir and the were quite for some minutes. He then put the meat back down and let it boil. Soon it was finished and Himeko poured some of it into a bowl and gave it to Shiba. Then he poured some in another. Shiba tasted it and was surprised to find it delicious! He took three bowls before he was satisfied.

”Good?”

”Yeah, thank you.”

Himeko blushed and turned his head away, but Shiba saw the smile. He stood up and went to spread the furs out. He turned back to Himeko.

”I don't have that much place to sleep on but you can lay closest to the fire and I can lay here.”

Himeko nodded and crept over to the furs. He laid down and pulled his kimono a little closer around his body. It was a simple kimono, not one to have outside. Easy to take off or rip into parts and because of that it wasn't expensive. It was a whores kimono. He shivered when the fire started to were out. Shiba saw the shiver and pulled Himeko back to his chest. Then he grabbed one fur that he wasn't lying on and draped it over Himeko and put his arms around him again.

”Better?”

Himeko nodded and was soon asleep in Shibas arms. Shiba lay awake a little while longer. Just to feel the heat from Himeko and look at him. Though he was very feminine he could see that it was a male. You just had to look really good and close... Tomorrow he would get him som real clothes, not this kimono. It was hard to move in when you were outside and didn't seem to warm to wear either. He would talk to Ensei about it. Or maybe Kai. He was the one that had special clothes for hunt, staying in the hut and on trips to some far of village to have fun. He was really like a girl about it! He smirked for himself and soon fell asleep listening to Himekos calming breaths.

Himeko didn't wake up once while Shiba was up. Not when he left to get some clothes. Or when he came back and put them at the fire. Or when he went back outside. But only a couple of minutes later he woke up. He wasn't that used to sleeping so long but it felt good. He slowly sat up, being careful about his foot. He saw something lying beside the fire and crawled over to check it out. It was clothes! A pair of boots, green pants and a dark green long armed shirt. And a black vest to have over. It was simple but good clothes. They were perfect to have in the forest and was easy to make or repair. He quickly dressed and braided his long hair. He found a string that he used to tie the end and slowly stood up. He looked around for something to use as a staff but found nothing so he simply started to jump on one leg to the huts opening. He pulled the fur aside and went outside.

”Hime-chan!”

Himeko looked around and saw Kai and Ensei coming towards him. Kai was a head shorter than Ensei with brown hair and blue eyes. He was wearing black pants and a blue shirt. Over that he had a black cloak. Ensei had black hair and dark eyes. He was wearing all black, pant, turtle neck shirt and cloak. They were both smiling and waving. Himeko nodded but said nothing. He could see some of the men looking at him, but he didn't dare to turn his head away from the two men. He didn't want to see the others faces.

”Hime-chan. How are you feeling today?”

”Don't call me that. I'm fine.”

”Okay, okay. That's good to hear. We were just on our way to Risko. Wanna come with us?”

Himeko nodded but squeked when Ensei lifted him up. Ensei smirked and started to walk towards Riskos' hut.

”Hey Ensei, I want to carry him!”

”Don't be stupid. He's to heavy for you.”

Himeko blushed and put his arms around his neck and buried his head in his chest. Ensei smiled down at him and then stuck his tougne out at Kai.

”See, he like s him more.”

”Oh yeah? Who was it that carried him last night?”

”That was different. You just grabbed him and walked away.”

”So? He likes me more than you anyway.”

”No. He like me more.”

”he's not some freaking pet you guys.”

”Shiba!”

Himeko looked up when he saw Shiba coming towards them, with a staff! Himeko quickly reached his hands out towards the staff like a kid did to his mother but when he saw Shibas smirking face he took them back. To late, Shiba had already grabbed him from Ensei.

”See? He likes me much more than you guys.”

”He was reaching for the staff, not you.”

”He did not.”

”Did to.”

”Did not.”

”Did to.”

”Did...”

”Yes I did. I want the staff.”

Shiba looked down at him and Kai started to laugh. Without a word Shiba put him down and handed the staff to him. He then turned and started to walk the other way. Himeko just stood there and watched him go. Had he hurt his feelings? He looked until Shiba disappeared around a hut and turned to Ensei and Kai. Kai saw the hurt look and quickly tried to smooth it over.

”I don't think he was that mad Hime-chan. If you thank him it will be as usual.”

Himeko nodded but still turned and took one last look after Shiba. They made their way over to Riskos hut but it took som time. Himeko had a hard time walking with the staff and he wasn’t the strongest person either after a life inside. Slowly but surely they made it to the hut and went inside. Risko greeted them with a smile and a nood.

”Hello Risko. We thought that we would leave Hime-chan here so you could look at his foot.”

”DON’T call me that Kai!”

Kai only snickered and left, Ensei quickly following him. Risko looked up at Himeko, smiling a little when it felt so natural for him to scold Kai. He decided to direct Himekos mind to something else. He didn’t want an angry Himeko in his hut…

”So, does it hurt like yesterday?”

”Huh?” Himeko had been sitting, glaring at the huts exit but turned his attention to Risko.

”Your foot. Does it hurt like yesterday?”

”Oh, no it doesn’t.”

Risko quickly looked it over and changed the bandages. Het hen gave Himeko some herbs that would help with the pain. Himeko thanked him and went outside to limp back to Shibas hut. The walk was slow and nobody seemed to keen on helping him.

”Need some help princess?”

Himeko turned his head around and gulped when he was faced with three big men. And big ment big. Atleast as tall as Shiba but two of them was two Shiba in breadth. They both had short brown hair and brown eyes. Himeko guessed that they were brothers. The one that had spoken was as tall as the others but had sunkissed blonde hair that came to his shoulders and big blue eyes. He leaned down to Himekos level and smirked.

”Of course you’ll have to pay us something in return… Like some mind blowing sex?

Himeko felt his body go cold and only one thought went through his mind. Where the hell was Shiba?!
