"You know, I've never been a fan of Tsunade's initiation process." Shizune said as she worked. "But since you betrayed me, I can hardly think of a better place to start enjoying what Tsunade has laboured so long for. And in fact... I can't think of a better person to give you your initiation than me!"


With that said, Shizune placed her right foot on Kusaki's right shoulder and tugged hard at the rope which bound Kusaki from his shoulders to just below his mid-section, making it impossible to move his arms or do much with his hands. Jutsu were now impossible to use. What had happened after Shizune declared he'd be a footslave was a blurry picture to Kusaki. Suddenly she had pulled back the foot that kept him pinned down, and gave him an almighty punt that left Kusaki in a dazed state. He'd never known it was possible for someone to kick so hard barefoot! During that time Shizune had obviously gone and gotten some rope, and when Kusaki was finally able to concentrate, he was sat indian style with Shizune putting the finishing touches on his bonds.


"Who knows anyway, Kusaki." Shizune said as Kusaki looked over his right shoulder and saw, in addition to Shizune's foot, wiggling teasingly, Shizune give him a smile that made him shiver. Kusaki transferred his gaze from her face to her foot which sat on his right shoulder. Shizune saw him look at it and flexed her foot. There was a pause.


"Aren't slaves supposed to kiss their owner's feet?" She asked, raising an eyebrow. The question was a rhetorical one, and more of a hint at that. Kusaki sighed and moved his head, putting his lips to Shizune's big toe and reluctantly kissing it. He couldn't help but think about how he'd lost the one seemingly trustworthy friend and safe haven he had in Konoha. And as far as he knew, through no fault of his own!


"Good boy." Shizune said as she saw and felt Kusaki kissing her toe. "A little bit more passion would be better, but there's time for that later." She glanced at the clock and removed her foot from Kusaki's shoulder as she went about getting ready for her day. For the most part she ignored Kusaki, as if he was already part of the furniture, and that made Kusaki more humiliated than the act of her being able to beat and tie him up, and making him kiss her foot. Eventually she remembered he was there, which was in actual fact bad news.


"I'm afraid I've got to go to work now, dear footslave," Shizune said "aren't you going to kiss my feet goodbye?" Kusaki was reluctant to do so and hesitated. Shizune growled. "Listen you pervert, I've tried to be nice to you, but if you aren't going to play ball then it's only going to get worse!" She exclaimed, shortly before kicking him in his chest and stepping onto it. "Now if you aren't going to come to me, I'll come to you! Now. Kiss." She first placed her right sole just above Kusaki's lips, which he kissed, followed by the left one which he kissed and then made the mistake of inhaling through his nose. The unpleasant odour of Shizune's foot came with the air around it, and Kusaki shook his head, trying to get away from it and showing his disapproval of it as Shizune put her hand to her mouth and giggled.


"You'll have to get used to the smell of my feet, I presume. They're a lot worse AFTER work, you know!" She had an impish smile and playfully caught Kusaki's nose in-between her left big and second toe, shaking his head around a bit, demonstrating that she owned him. Then she jumped off of his body, allowing him to to breathe more easily. "Oh, and one more thing." She walked off, returning with some duct tape and picked up her other stocking, before returning to her footslave. "We can't have you making a scene, can we? After all, I don't want too look like too much of a hypocrite." Then she rolled up and stuffed her stocking in Kusaki's mouth. He groaned in protest. "Also, since you did such a good job of washing the other one, it's only right that you do this one too!"


Then she pulled out some duct tape, covered Kusaki's mouth with it and severed the connection between the duct tape on Kusaki's mouth and the roll of duct tape it came from. After that she grabbed Kusaki's bonds, sat him up and dragged him over to a nearby closet. She opened the door - it was small. Just enough space for Kusaki to sit in comfortably. Shizune pulled him into it, pushed him in as far as he would go, and then grabbed the door and smiled. "I should see about getting you a collar. I think you'd look so cute in one! Don't miss me too much!" Kusaki gave a muffled response and Shizune laughed before closing the closet and going to work.

Everything was suddenly quite dark and lonely.
