Most of this story is based off of a dream I had awhile ago. I thought it would be fun to write it and it was. Also I really don't like writing and saying he said, she said all the time, but if anyone has a hard time distinguishing who's talking, then let me know and I'll put more in to determine who is talking.
Chapter1: A Vague Meeting
Team 7 was wandering around in the dark forest.
"Kakashi-sensei, are you sure this is the right way it feels like we've been walking for hours."
"Naruto! Quit whining so much you're being even more annoying then usual," Sakura replied harshly.
"Quiet you two this is no time to be arguing I think we're being followed," Kakashi stated quietly.
Suddenly a ninja appeared out of nowhere and slammed into Kakashi catching him off guard.
"Kakashi-sensei!" Both Naruto and Sakura yelled at the same time.
Somehow Kakashi had been knocked out and the ninja picked him up effortlessly.
Sasuke attempted to attack the nin but he disappeared as quickly as he had appeared.
They could all hear a terrible maniacal laughter surrounding them before it died away. Team 7 was left in the middle of an unfamiliar forest.
There was a rustle in the trees nearby and they turned to see a girl no older then them with short auburn hair and green eyes.
"Who are you? I saw what happened to your sensei I'm terribly sorry," She stated.
"I'm Uzumaki Naruto."
"I'm Haruno Sakura."
"Uchiha Sasuke."
"Hey wait, why are you sorry?" Sasuke asked suspiciously.
"Because I know who that nin was, in fact I live nearby why don't you all come with me and I can tell you."
"Sounds great!"
"Hold it! After what just happened what makes you think we can trust her, Naruto?"
"Oh, you're right!"
"Well it's not like you have much of a choice, you're lost in an unfamiliar forest and they live here and could easily track you down."
"What, who's they?"
"What's to say you aren't working for them, whoever they are, or trying to lure us into a trap?"
Suddenly there was a maniacal laughter filling the forest.
"There's no time to explain anything here, plus the longer we stay here the better the chance they'll find you." "But to confirm I'm not trying to kill you, why would I have any reason to kill three random people who just happened to lose their sensei to a vampire while also being lost themselves? Plus if I wanted to I would've killed you already."
"What!" Both Sakura and Naruto shouted.
"Right," Sasuke said sarcastically.
"What you don't believe me? I could take you."
"It's not that, it's just the vampire part."
"You don't believe in vampires?"
"Eh, no, not really, can you prove it?" Sasuke replied in a mocking tone.
"Unfortunately, yet fortunately for you, no," She replied with a scowl.
"We don't really have much of a choice Sasuke, and we don't really know this area well enough to find the way out ourselves."
"Or find Kakashi sensei."
"Fine, but I still don't trust her."
"You don't have to."
Team 7 followed the girl who claimed she was trying to help them.
"Hey, you never told us your name," Naruto said.
"It's Asuka."
They entered a small cabin like house, there wasn't much in it, aside from a couch, a small table and chair, and a bed there was also a small kitchen and a wall covered with an assortment of different ninja style tools, most of them were unusually silver.
"You live here by yourself? But you're only about our age right?"
"Yeah, well I did live with someone a few years ago it was the person who gave me this cabin I don't know where my parents are though." "Now about the vampires. That nin you fought was part of a vampire ninja clan that lives somewhere in this forest. I'm not entirely sure why but they take people who are either really strong or have a special power. They bite those who are strong and kidnap those who have that special power."
"There's a village on the other side of this forest that believes it's really me who's killing off some of its people at night. I was an orphan and because of my unusual ability I was banished from the village so they tied me up and left me somewhere in the forest probably hoping that wolves or something else would eat me."
"One of the vampires found me and took care of me, because of what I was. Not too long ago though I heard about the villagers ravaging the forests during the day searching for me and couldn't imagine why. But I think I know now and I should've known sooner. They enjoy killing those who are weak or not even nins or shinobi."
"There was one boy, a sand nin, wandered through here, I don't know why, anyway he had a special power in him and so one of them tried to knock him out, he was killed almost instantly. That is the kind of power they crave."
"What kind of unusual ability makes an entire village fear you and want to kill you?"
"The inhuman kind, speaking of which I'm a wolf demon."
Just then the same strange laughter from before came from outside.
Outside in a tree was who appeared to be a nin from the vampire clan.
"Be good today and give me the blond haired boy."
"What, Why him?"
"He holds a power far greater then many, and you know as well as I do what'll happen if you refuse, but of course you won't now, will you."
"Wha…what's he talking about?"
"Nothing, it's nothing," She replied nervously.
"Oh, so now it's nothing, is it? What the hell is he talking about?" Sasuke snapped.
She glanced around nervously "Can't you… oh I don't know, come back later?"
"No! I can't keep him waiting after I told him about the demon; you know how he feels when he's kept waiting."
"I…uh can't."
"You what!"
"I can't."
"Why you thankless little brat! You're going to regret saying that!"
They prepared to be attacked but instead he just left and disappeared into the darkness.
She started to gather different ninja gear and supplies.
"You have to leave this forest now; I can show you the way."
"Hang on; the least you can do is tell us what that was about," Naruto asked.
"If you had gone with him…well since certain people like you, me, and the sand kid can't be affected by the bite they have to "convince" them to use the power how they want. Sometimes though the one with the power will refuse and they have to torture them until they change their mind, eventually, though they may get tired of it and just kill the person."
"Why Naruto, what power could they possibly be talking about?"
"They don't know about it?"
"And you do?"
"A friend told me before he died that he was from Konoha village and he regrets never talking to a certain blond haired boy that had the spirit of the kyuubi in him. I promised him that I would ask the boy to forgive him even though he probably doesn't know him."
"Meaning what exactly?"
"That boy was talking about…" She looked up towards Naruto.
"We can't leave yet, what about Kakashi sensei?"
"He's a vampire now."
"But…there has to be some way to change him back."
"Well…there is one way," she said slowly holding up a vial containing a strange bluish liquid "I made this to counter the effect, only it does have a nasty side effect that drains most of your chakra and leaves you temporarily defenseless, not to mention…" She paused.
"Well you can imagine how hard it must be to force a vampire to drink anything other than blood, I tried several things but none of them have worked."
They were making their way through the forest when Asuka thought she heard something with her super sensitive wolf ears.
There was an inaudible whisper through the trees that sounded kind of like chanting, and then it changed to whispering their names. Sakura went noticeably pale and grabbed a kunai, and Naruto and Sasuke were ready to fight. A nin stepped out of the trees behind Asuka and caught her off guard. He had one arm around her neck and the other around her waist binding her wrists to her sides so she couldn't move.
"I'll give you one last chance if the kyuubi brat comes with me I won't have to hurt you."
"What about the others?" Asks another to his right.
"He looks kind of like that Uchiha boy…oww!"
"Don't ever say his name you moron! He killed one of us last time and he was older, it must be his brother. Kakashi."
The third nin stepped out of the shadows revealing his identity.
"Kakashi sensei!"
"What do you think Kakashi? What should we do with them, maybe let him take care of them."
"Wait! Don't kill them."
"Hahahahaha who said we were gonna kill'em they're lucky, they get to come with us and possibly get the chance to live."
Even Sasuke couldn't break his captors grip. Sakura was sadly trailing in front of them. If she tried to escape Sasuke would die.
They were taken to a cave near a strange building that was completely overgrown.
Once in the cave there were cages set into the rock surface that were impenetrable to even the most elite ninjas. They were each thrown into one of the impenetrable cages.
Asuka was sitting with her head down her wolf ears and tail now visible. She began to whimper at the thought of being punished by him, probably torture or something worse.
Sasuke was busy trying to undo the chains that bound him without much luck.
Sakura was busy worrying and trying to think of a plan.
Naruto was busy beating his head against the wall (Which was hard because he also had been bound in chains) trying to figure out what they planned on doing to them.
