Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Buffy the vampire slayer.
-----------------------------------------
He didn't know where to start. He didn't know what he was doing. Or why he wanted to do it. All he knew is that he felt something, something real, and something about another person than himself. The boy sat with his dark locks in front of his face, his red eyes starring at nothing particular.
He didn't show emotion. No that would be unacceptable even though he felt it. How could a human make him feel? He hadn't felt since he was turned over 1500 years previous. The last things he felt were fear and anger. Immense anger towards the person that soon killed him, but then again didn't kill him. The person freed him in a sense, but took him away from himself in another. He no longer had a soul. Was he even himself? Were his true memories those that started in the grave and the others just a dream of a former life? But they were part of his memory and that is what defines a person, though he wasn't exactly a person. Snap. He was off topic again, letting his mind wander around. He had all the time in the world to think, that's what he was used to. There were only few moments when action had to be taken. The first was when he was hunted. The second was when he was hunting. But now that he could feel, he needed to discover why and rid himself of it promptly. The cause was that boy and in a mere 20 to 80 years the boy would die and if he hadn't figured it out by then he might be stuck with feelings.
He knew what the boy was. Unspeakable. Dangerous. The thing that hunted him and all his kind, but in turn they hunted him back.
-----------------------------------------
Blue eyes sat starring intensely at the board, the teacher looking into his frustrated eyes. It wasn't that the teacher was cruel, or that he suspected that Naruto wasn't paying attention. He was just hoping that by putting the boy on the spot it would force the boy's brain to make the connections. Then again Naruto just wasn't the brilliant type. Then again, if he worked outside of class on more basic principle maybe the harder ones would be easier to understand. He would need to convince the boy that tutoring was a necessity.
"Five." The boy exclaimed proudly.
"No, Naruto that is not the answer." The teacher replied in defeat.
"Minus three." Stated the boy that was never wrong.
"Shikamaru it is rude to speak out turn. With all your intelligence I would have thought you could have learned manners by now. Yes the solution is minus three."
The bell rand. The teacher quickly reminded the class of their homework assignment and sat back down at his desk.
-----------------------------------------
Naruto got up from his desk. He simply didn't understand math. He gathered his stuff and began to leave the room.
"Naruto, a moment please." The teacher was already sitting at his desk.
"Yes, Iruka? I mean Mr. Umino."
"I want you to spend an hour after school in the tutoring center. I know you try hard but I think maybe if you studied more basic concepts and got a foundation, other things would come more easily."
"Fine. One more hour of torture shouldn't hurt that much." With that he left without even a good bye.
-----------------------------------------
The final class of the day was gym. It went well, better than well, great. It was the one thing he could do. His hand eye, strength coordination, simply could not be beaten. He had lost at cards, and chess, and other board games, but he didn't know what it meant to lose at sports. It simply didn't happen. He ran faster than everyone. He almost never missed a jump shot. He always placed the Volleyball right where no one could get it.
On the side he had never lost a fight either. They all finished rather quickly too. He would never had guess as to why or thought himself extraordinarily out of the ordinary. People simply could break other people ribs when punching them. Kicking was natural. People were easy to trip. That's how the world worked for Naruto.
This class was no different for him. He had gracefully lead his dodgeball team to 5 victories. Only after when he was getting dress again, did he remember that he wasn't going home at this time. To the tutoring center it was. He took his head into his hands as he sat on a locker room bench he fingers barely nudging their way into his angel blonde hair. He just sat there, postponing. He didn't notice his classmates being replaced by man with a half covered face.
He looked up at the man just as he produced a knife and through it straight at him. Naruto caught the knife by the hilt. Looking straight at the blade only inches from his face he exclaimed to the man, "Hey you could have hit me with that."
"Well, I had to make sure you were the one." The man said, his voice surprisingly unmuffled consider the mask that covered it.
"But you could have killed me!!"
Pause. Pause. Pause. Was this kid ever going to ask what "the one" referred to? Pause. Apparently not.
"Well it's a good thing that you are the one then isn't it."
"This thing looks really sharp."
"But that doesn't matter since you are the one."
Naruto started examining the blade. It was finely made. He bet this man paid well over 100 dollars for the knife. Naruto looked around for something to put it in. The man almost killed him with it, he couldn't expect to get it back.
"Ahem." the voice started Naruto.
"What?"
"Sheesh… you're going to be so annoying to work with. You are the one choose through out the world to fight the Vampires. You alone can stop them from. HEY!!! That's my sheath… and my knife give them back."
"No way, you through this at me and could have killed me. The least you can do is let me have it"
"Fine you can use it while fulfilling your duty and fighting vampires. Though I think stakes will work better."
3….
"I'll just

STAKES! VAMPIRES! YOU"VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME."
"Yes. Meet me at the graveyard tonight, 10 O'clock sharp, and I'll prove you to be the vampire slayer."
Naruto watching the man leave. At first he just sat. The corner of his mouth moved just a little, he couldn't stop it. The other side mirrored it and soon he had a smile on his face. His mind started to finally catch up to what was said. He fell the bench laughing harder than he could ever remember. That man was seriously the most messed up wack job he had seen. That or someone had just played one of the funniest pranks he'd even been the subject of. Either way it was hilarious. But he wouldn't want the pranker to know he had figured it out yet. So he would show at the grave yard, and beat up any poor kid that dare dress up like a vampire and attack him. This was going to be fun.
-----------------------------------------
In all the excitement of the past few minutes Naruto had forgotten that he was to report to the tutoring center. When he arrived at his guardian's home room, the surprised expression on Iruka's face quickly drew back the destination he was supposed to have been at for at least five minutes. He darted out of the room and ran straight to the Library. In the back was a small room off the side with a large sign on top saying "Tutoring Center." Shikamaru was there reading a book. He of course, was not being tutored but was doing the tutoring. His philosophy was one of teaching students to learn own their own. Only in dire need did he do anything that resembled normal tutoring.
With out looking up Shikamaru's smooth voice said, "Sit Naruto, I took the liberty of finding a second grade math book for you. Prove to me that I wasn't right about your math level and that you rightfully feel insulted by completing 250 problems in the book with out one error. If you have any questions about how to do something read the book first and then ask me. Go."
Naruto did feel a little insulted. But he new Shikamaru. They had been friends since the start of freshman year when Naruto first moved to Konoha. Shikamaru's intension's were pure. He didn't mean to be demeaning to Naruto, and Naruto knew this. So he sat down and opened the book. The problems were easy. Naruto felt some confidence in doing them. And Shikamaru knew that was the most important thing in learning. If you didn't believe you could do it then you couldn't. But if you were confident in it then nothing was unsolvable.
When the hour was up, Naruto had completed his task successfully. He would get harder problems the next day.
Since Shikamaru was such a good friend, and unlikely to be the one behind the prank he told of what had happened in the locker room, with out realizing the need for secrecy. Shikamaru would have believed it a prank too, if his IQ was not about 200. Taking into account Natuto's physical performance in gym, and his honest nature Shikamaru believed that Naruto had caught a knife. He knew this to be an extraordinary feat unlike Naruto, he assumed that he man was indeed telling the truth. Naruto really was a Vampire slayer, which meant vampires were real. This was the only truly unbelievable part of the story. Shikamaru decided then that he had to see what would happen at the grave.
-----------------------------------------
Seeing as he was the biggest Loud mouth in Konoha tracking down the blonde's name, where he went to school, friend's names, guardian's name, which lead to the discover of why his parent's died, and even his home address was simple. The guy at the Raman shop seemed to know everything about the kid. It seemed a little strange to the vampire that some one would divulge everything about themselves to a simple Raman shop owner. What the vampire didn't realize is that his blonde prey spent as much time at the Raman house has he could. So much so that it was the only place that could be labeled as his second home.
Well that was a start at least for the undead man. Now he could test out these things he thought were feelings. He would finally be able to rid himself of them. Probably would be as simple as just killing the boy. Maybe only seeing the boy a second time, though the boy did look sweet. He hoped he tasted like honey. The vampire was suddenly hungry for a child that had eaten too many sweets. A child's blood was always more refined than an adults, but one on a sugar high, was just plain divine.
He stood up from the stool and tipped the shops owner and the girl that had served him and headed off. Not realizing if he had waited two minutes later fate would have brought the boy to him.
-----------------------------------------
Naruto ate Raman like there wasn't going to be any the next day. Which since he was spending the last of his allowance on it was true for him. Raman itself was of course safe and would continue to be served the next day too, just not to Naruto.
"Wow, I love the shoes."
"Their fluevogs. My dad knows John so I already got the style early, it should be available for the commoner to but in about six months."
Naruto new these voices. Only the two hottest and most popular girls in school. He didn't turn though. They would only make fun of him.
"Sakura, you truly are blessed."
"Ino, look someone is actually eating at the Raman stand."
The girl giggled as they passed and Naruto was glad he hadn't turned.
-----------------------------------------
He arrived at the graveyard exactly at 10 o' clock. He had passed by the graveyard on occasion, but hadn't realized how large it was. He took a look around, by the light of the full moon. It was flat so the strange man from the locker room should be seen easily or the "fake" Vampire that would inevitable show up.
10:05, 10:10, 10:15, 10:20, 10:30, 10:45, 11:00, 11:30, 12:00. Where was this guy? Was the joke just to have him stand out here like and idiot?
He looked down at a newly dug grave. Minato Namikaze 1927- 2007. The man had had a long life. That was good. Children dieing was too tragic for Naruto to handle. The dirt from the grave began to move. Naruto must be seeing things. No way but surely enough it seems like a bit of the dirt was caving down. He leaned down at it to look closer, but stumbled back as a hand shot out from the ground.
"What is going on?!?!?!"
A second hand emerged from the ground, followed by a head, and a body. The old man was clawing his way out of the grave!
"Excellent. I arrived just in time." Naruto jumped from the voice behind him and darted to the side looking over his shoulder to see a masked figure. He quickly looked back to the grave. An old man covered in dirt stood there. There was also something distinctly wrong with his face. The man spotting two victimesstarted to move quickly towards them. Naruto noticed the man in the mask, quickly step behind him. Naruto was to be the one to fight this … this thing. Fine with him. He didn't wait two hours for nothing.
The old man quickly grabs him by the collar trying to get Nartuo to reveal his neck. The man's enlarged canines shine in the moon light. Naruto's eyes widen and the thought Vampire becomes clear in his head.
Naruto flings his arm over and down, breaking the dirty man's hold and follows up with a punch to the face. Smack. Right on target. Naruto expected the man to fall down. All his other opponents had. The man was a little taken back, but just touched his check in surprise and then continued at Naruto with his own punch. It hurt. But it didn't knock down Naruto either.
Naruto sidesteps the man throwing a side kick up and hitting the man just below the jaw. The old man's head to flings back and the force causes him to stumble back several feet. With the newly acquired gap between them the old man rushes towards Naruto tucking down and protruding his shoulder out causing it to ram straight into Naruto's stomach.
They both fall down together. The old man easily on top crawls up a slightly dazed Naruto, holding his hands well above him. Naruto now seeing once again the old man's long canines glisten in the moonlight as he leans down to bite as his neck. Naruto thrust his hips up and rolled the man over. In his peripheral vision he sees an object flying towards himself. He catches it with out looking. Bringing in front of him, he sees a wooded stake and immediately drives it into the man.
"The heart is a bit higher."
Naruto feeling silly shows a small tint of on his checks. He pulled the stake out and redrives it in a few inches higher. The man beneath him turned to dust, causing naruto to fall six inches to the bare ground.
He sat looking at nothing particular, since the thing he was looking at was gone. Vampire. Vampire slayer.
"This is your calling."
