Set in Gossip
By: Itachi Silverwolf
Shifter High was in a frenzy. News of the death of a vampire had spread worse than wildfire. Many of the students began to create their own horror stories of how Sasuke attacked them first. Other classmates told stories of Sasuke murdering Naruto's parents first and then forcing the slightly younger shifter to accept the change.
Suigetsu sits along a desk. "You're all so damn stupid. Everyone knows that the foxes' parents died from being attacked by the hyena found dead there. How do you know what happened if Naruto never even returned to school?"
Sakura looks at the vampiric shifter with a growl. "He's being held hostage!" Suigetsu narrows violet eyes at his classmate. "Now you're going to eat me! Someone help me!"
The vampiric shifter leaves the classroom with a growl. Skipping school seemed like a better idea today. That is until Kisame appears. The teacher wouldn't care what the students had to say. Watching Suigetsu enters the class once again.
"You'd better get your ass to your desk." Kisame looks at the students gathered around gossiping. "Shut your faces and sit your asses down. Everyone knows that they will search out any vampiric shifter that kills a vampire or a true shifter so shut your damn mouths about it already."
Was Suigetsu the only one with the point of view that like the vampire or the true shifter the vampiric shifter had a right to defend itself? With a growl Suigetsu decides to interrupt the gossip. Maybe it would get him out in the hall. "You are all so damn stupid. Did anyone bother to think about the fact that vampires teach us to kill each other and then hunt us like animals? Did anyone bother to discover if the vampire murdered had tried to murder the vampiric shifter in question? Of course not because we're animals. And yet it is you all that teach us to kill. It is all of you that tell stories of being attacked without a damn mark on you. I'm so damn sick of it. Throw me out."
Suigetsu starts to gather his books and bag. Kisame looks at the vampiric shifter. "Come to the front. Finally, a subject that has your damn attention. Let's begin this debate. Anyone care to counter Hozaki's words?" The class looks at their teacher a bit shocked. "Come on now, speak up. This is the subject every one of you is speaking about."The platinum blonde shoves his books into his bag and steps to the front of the class holding it. Kisame points to his desk. The teacher then pulls a chair from the corner of the classroom and sits in it.
"Vampiric shifters are animals without any control. Everyone knows that. Vampires created them for protection. And they do attack people! That's why there are laws in place to punish them."
Suigetsu gives a bitter laugh. "Vampires created us for their own entertainment. The laws in place are so theyhave control. No one wants their creation turning on them because of the abuse it has suffered. Just like with blood. A vampire has willing donors; a vampiric shifter does not; yet they both survive on blood. Does anyone know where the vampiric shifter first came from? I'll tell you. From you. From a union of a vampire and a true shifter. That's right; way back before your parents were born your own kind was taken advantage of by vampires. Then the hybrids were bred together like animals to create us. All of you are so full of lies that none of you know the truth. The bite of a vampiric shifter scars horridly. Not one of you have those scars and yet you sit and tell people your other classmates attacked you. Even between each other the bite of a vampiric shifter scars faintly. Also let me share something with you; a vampiric shifter is told that your blood is poison. Understand that while you tell your lies. No vampiric shifter would ever bite you because of the fear of losing their own life."
"Rumors swear Uzumaki is now a vampiric shifter. He was forced to do it. I just know it." Suigetsu growls loudly. Kisame looks at frustrated student.
"Speak it. Tell them all." Suigetsu shakes his head. He could not betray what he knew. He had never seen the fox act in fear around either of the wolves. Only affection.
"There's no way in hell that blonde was forced to be a vampiric shifter. I know because the rumors of our kind swear he's never even hunted since he's left school. There is a willing blood pact between sire and fledgling like none of us has ever known. I believe it was either a desperate save or a willing transformation." The class begins an uproar of protest.
