Eh...I think I'm just gonna start a new arc. My last fic was so terribly unorganized and...and...just terrible in general. I'm going to try my hardest on this new fic!
The man lay in his bed looking through the window to meet the early dawn outiside. The trees, the ground, sky, everything is colored a pale blue; as if everything is frozen in time. The nostalgia of the moment caused him to bring his fingers to the bridge of his nose. How he got this scar...
[flashback]
The man hurried off into the woods - A mad rush. Between his gasps for air and the twinges of pain in his legs, he pushed his body to persevere.
Konoha Village was still 20 miles away...
[flashback in a flashback...but not so far back]
"Heh heh heh HAhahahaaha! What pitiful ninjas you are! My dead grandmother could fight better than all of you put together. I expected more from the great Konoha Village!" The target revealed a dagger and charged toward all of the ninja. "Let us commence... tHe BloOd sPilliNg! (if you couldn't read that : the blood spilling - weird text for the ultra psycho wacko way he said it)
Eyes closed, the ninja braced himself for impact. Here he comes!
....nothing!!? What!?
He opened his eyes and saw his friend impaled with the dagger through his chest. "Yunji!!!" the ninja yelled. With a clumsy smile, Yunji rasped the words "Save yourself..." before he coughed up blood and crumpled to the ground as the man pulled the dagger out of him. He picked up the body and proceeded to kiss the neck. Then, the kisses turned into a violent sucking reflex and the color from the body turned to an ashen gray and began to shrivel up. He finished draining the blood and stared at the ninja in front of him.
"You look just as saporous...." he said, followed by sinister giggle.
As the ninja turned to run, the target regurgitated several needles towards the fleeing man. These are slow! I can catch these! he thought. He managed to catch all but the one in his blind spot behind him which grazed his leg. He stumbled a bit and took off into the trees.
"...Blood...More...UMmm...I can smell your sweet blood..." echoed a voice in the distance.
[end of flashback]
His leg filled with excruciating pain every time any significant amount of force was put on it. He examined the needles closer - poison filled compartments. If I move around more, I'm just going to make the poison spread faster through my body. He gave a weak chuckle and looked at the sky. Looks like your sacrifice was in vain Yunji. Wait for me...I'll be joining you guys soon...

The man finished lapping up the blood from another leaf ninja's neck and threw the shriveled corpse to the side. "...uUUuoghH...must have more blood. WHERE IS HE! He can't have gone far..." He grasped his chest as he swiftly moved through the forest. "I have not feasted in a month...I will have my food...
A grimace appeared across his face as he saw the figure of the straggling ninja. "Poison, isn't it wonderful? Once it reaches your brain, he won't even be able to breathe and I like prey that doesn't try to incapacitate you when you bite them..."
---
He saw it. The same man was looming over him with a devilish grin on his face. I can't even move my arms...no jutsu...no weapons...His silent stalker began to peel the layers of clothing of his neck and then unsheathed a dagger. "I...can't...do anything...Damn you..." He could feel the frigid and ecstatic gasps of the vampiric being on his neck.
"Don't feel useless...Your bodily fluids will make up for that...." the demonic being exclaimed with delight as he plunged his weapon into the man's neck.
---
The man, with all his strength, used his hand to guide the dagger away from the critical point on his neck and the dagger instead sliced across the man's face. The vampire man jumped back from the sudden reaction from the ninja and began to laugh at him. "Do you think you'll still live after you avoided my first strike? Let me remind you, the poison is spreading through your body as we speak. You are in no condition to fight at all. I don't even need my dagger to feed tonight; for YOU have become like a helpless little girl."
He attempted to resheath his dagger when he noticed something glowing on the blade. Several explosive notes were attached to it! Damn! He must have put them on there when I tried to cut his neck! The ninja struggled to put his hands together into a seal and forced a smile. "This...little girl...is going to take...you back...to hell..." He completely formed the seal with his hands. The notes burst into a conglomeration of flames. A great force hit him...then...black....

Mob of Angry KakaIru fans: Where's the mushy-mushy Kakairu!?
Please be patient. After my last unsuccessful fic, I think it may be writer's block. I think I have something in mind, but I'll be needing more inspiration. I only want you all to see the best. Not some crap that I found in the bottom of a McDonald's Deep Fryer. [dodges a flying tomato] ...that wasn't even a rotten one ; C...You must want to knock me out...
Maybe it will come to me in a dream... [K.O. by incoming cinder block]
