A Scary Life Indeed
Chapter One: Darkness
Darkness. Darkness was all she could see and all she's been seeing for a long time now. She doesn't know how long she has had this stupid blindfold on, but she was terrified. But she is also scared to see what's behind this stupid blindfold. She was just merely taking a shortcut from her work to her apartment, when she was ambushed by a group of men in an alleyway and then was abruptly knocked on her head after they pressed her up against the cold, dirty alley wall. She woke up in a car ride, but she couldn't see anything, due to the blindfold they must have put on her when they knocked her out. Then she was roughly dragged out of the vehicle, then to what she thinks a mansion, because she's been walking/ being dragged through so many hallways, for approximately five minutes. It was scary as hell. She just wished she was at her apartment, and in her comfy and warm bed. Nice and cozy.
She was about to trip by being pushed and blindfolded and being dragged, just when she caught herself.
"Hey, girl, watch where you're walking. Our master won't want you face bruised all up or your body for that matter," one guy said and pushed her forward, making her almost trip once again.
She swallowed back her fear, preparing herself for what she was going to say next. "…But you guys hit me in that alleyway and knocked me out. I'm sure I'm already bruised up from you guys."
He hit the back of her head. "You'll speak when spoken to! I'd suggest keeping your mouth shut, pretty girl…." He smirked. "Unless you're in our master's bed."
She started to breathe harder now, she was thinking this might happen back in the alleyway. Being raped and all, but she knew she could get through it. It is only physical pain and for most, emotional pain.
"…Then why are you hitting me? Won't your master get angry at you for hitting me? I wouldn't want to be all bruised up and ugly for him after all. I wouldn't think he would either from what you said." She just did not know when to shut her big fat mouth up, did she?
The guy that was talking to her hit the back of her head very hard, making her gasp out in pain. A small amount of blood started trickling down the back of her head.
"He doesn't care about the back of your pretty little head. So shut it before you have to deal with me." He gritted out.
She didn't say anything more after that. They walked a little more and came to what she thought to be a door. The door opened and they then proceeded to walk through, and they abruptly halted, taking her by surprise.
"Take it off her," someone with a silky, yet a deep gruff voice said.
She was then pushed forward once again.
"Yes, sir," the one that repeatedly hit her said. He stepped forward and took the blindfold off of the young blonde.
For the first time, she could see. What was going on though? Where was she? And who are these people? She was in a dimly fluorescent lit room. There was this one man with black spiky hair and black eyes that was sitting in a king like chair. Another man was standing to his right side, with deep brown hair that was in a ponytail that resembled a pineapple, he also had brown eyes. Besides herself, the two in front and behind were the only ones in the room with her.
"This is one of the most beautiful women you two have gotten me. Thank you, Kabuto, Kimimaro, you've out done yourself." he said while smiling. "You two may go now." He waved his hand at the pair of men standing just behind the blonde, and they both nodded.
"Yes, my prince," Kimimaro said, the first time she even heard him speak. They then both left after that. Sasuke looked the girl up and down with an approval in his eyes, which scared her.
"Very well done," he said. "May I ask you of your name?"
She swallowed. No way would she want any one of these people know her name… but if she doesn't give her name to him, she might be in for a world of shit.
"What's yours, my prince? If you really are a prince that is," she said.
"What a mouth on this one, huh Shikamaru? Usually they're just whining little cry babies that are afraid of their own shadow. But no, this one is indeed different." He said and then his voice changed from amused to harsh. "What's your name, girl?"
She swallowed again. "…I-Ino Yamanaka." He continued to look at her, but his eyes seem to take on a husky look.
"Ino, huh? A name like that doesn't seem to suit you, but names do not really matter, now do they?"
"Depends on the person's opinion," Ino muttered out. "In my opinion, they do…."
Sasuke chuckled. "To me they really do not." He got up off his King like chair and walked to Ino. She started walking backwards a little. He just advanced to her nonetheless and held her shoulders tightly.
"Let me go!" Ino yelled, trying to get out of his grasp, but miserably failed. He just held even tighter and made her squeal in pain. She felt like her bones would be crushed under his hands.
"Now be a good girl," he said and then lowered his mouth to her ear. "Or else."
"T-There's no way a m-man like you can have so much p-power…"she whimpered as tears sprang from her eyes.
He smiled. "That's because I'm no ordinary mane, human," he replied. Ino's eyes widened.
"Sasuke," Shikamaru sternly said.
"What, Shikamaru," he half snapped.
"What are you planning now?"
Sasuke chuckled at this. He then lowered his mouth to her neck and bit into her soft flesh with his razor sharp fangs. She gasped and she couldn't help the sounds that came from her mouth.
"Ahh! Oww…" she breathed heavily.
"Sasuke! What are you doing?" Shikamaru snapped in shock. Never, had he once, communicated or drank one of his "women" in front of him. One; he wouldn't even have her sent straight to him, but his room and all pampered. Two; if he ever drank his "women's" blood, which Shikamaru was pretty sure that Sasuke did, it was not here, but also his room.
Ino looked at Shikamaru while breathing heavily. She breathed out, "Help me," but he didn't move from his stance. Shikamaru wanted to help this innocent human, but he just couldn't help her right now.
Sasuke continued to suck the blood out of the terrified girl. After a few more seconds, he let go of Ino and she fell to the hard floor on her knees. She was somewhat in a daze, while holding her neck where she was just bitten. Her vision blurred, so Ino couldn't see very well.
Sasuke turned around to face Shikamaru with blood red eyes. He wiped the blood off the corners of his mouth. But Sasuke's eyes did not go unnoticed by Shikamaru, who caught so much with his skillful eyes.
"What, Shikamaru," he Prince questioned.
"What are you doing?"
Sasuke merely chuckled once again. "Is it 'doing' or 'planning', Shikamaru?" Shikamaru replied with a blank expression. "I thought so…. Instead of just raping and killing the girls I usually receive, I am sticking with this one for a little while."
"Why her?" he said looking down at Ino, who was still on the floor with her hand clenching her bitten neck.
Sasuke shrugged. "I've been waiting for a girl like this one. One who is beautiful, scared, and yet not afraid to speak her mind. It's intruging really."
"So, you are going to turn her." It was a statement, but Sasuke answered nonetheless,
"Indeed."
"So, she is your new pet then." It was yet again a statement.
"Until I get bored," he simply stated. Sasuke turned back to the quiet girl with a smirk. He bent over her, leaning in close to her face. Ino kept her ground, but just barely. "You are dying, Ino. Did you know that?" Ino just stared at him with wide eyes, not answering him. "But I'm feeling generous, so I'll prolong your life."
Ino gulped. "I don't want what you have to offer, just let me die."
Sasuke reach out to caress her cheek, and she jumped back a little, but then regretted it as pain soured throughout her body. "Unfortunately for you, you do not have a choice. But do not fright, you can live for many, many generations… if I do not get bored with you that is." Without further a due, Sasuke bit into his own wrist, drawing blood. "Drink." He commanded, holding out his wrist to her, but she just shook her head vigorously. Sasuke, short of patience, grabbed the back of her head, making Ino gasp in pain which was perfect for Sasuke, because he placed his wrist to her mouth, making her drink. He only let her go when he knew that she had a good amount of his blood.
Ino felt a rush of power overwhelm her. Not just that, but her vision was now better than ever and her hearing spiked to a much higher level. Though, she was still a little bit dizzy and worn out.
"I'll call for a servant to get her her own room and to clean her wounds up," Sasuke said. He walked back over to his throne and pressed a small round button on the arm of the chair. Within a couple of seconds a young woman, who wore a simple black dress that came to her feet and with pink bubble gum colored hair that went to her mid back came into the room. She walked in front of her master and bowed respectfully.
"My lord," she said, still bowing.
"Sakura, get Ino here a small room for herself and clean her wounds," Sasuke told his servant.
She nodded once she rose up. "Yes, my lord." She looked over to the scared blonde girl who was still on her knees. A lot of questions went through her head. Sakura went over to her, saying, "Excuse me, miss." Ino looked up with hallow eyes. It took Sakura back a little. She then gently grabbed Ino's shoulders and stood her up. Sakura looked at Shikamaru with worried eyes. She then proceeded to turn Ino away and walk her out of the still room. Ino slowly followed and was still kind of in a daze. For what seemed like forever, that made it to a door and went in, even though it was only a few minutes. Sakura opened the door and shut it when she went in. She set Ino on the bed and looked at her face, but Ino was looking down at her lap. "Miss?"
Ino slowly lifted her head and looked at Sakura. "…Help me…."
Sakura continued to look at her but she suddenly saw two bite marks on the left side of her neck.
"That can't be…." She whispered to herself. She took a step forward and moved some strands of hair on her neck to inspect her bleeding wound. Two bite marks, deep bite marks. Her hand flew to her mouth, along with a gasp. "Oh my…."
Ino swallowed. "…What?"
Sakura looked at the blonde. "H-He turned you, didn't he?"
Ino slowly looked away, "I never really believed in vampires before this, but I guess I have no choice now…."
Sakura gave a sad half smile. "I said something like that when I was first awakened."
"Awakened?" Ino questioned.
"It means the same as turned, just more formal."
"Oh… so I'm not going to turn, am I?"
Sakura smiled. "No, miss."
Ino downcast her eyes. "Please stop calling me that. My name's Ino Yamanaka, please call me Ino."
The pink haired girl nodded. "Yes, Ino. Now let's get those wounds of yours healed up. It'll take a while to heal and it will be the last wound you will ever have that will take a while to heal."
"…Cause I'm a," she couldn't even say it. "v-vampire?" Sakura nodded.
"A half vampire, like me, and prince Sasuke is royal, so he's a full blood. If you're born a vampire you are a full blood, though."
"Alright." She replied.
Sakura turned to her left and walked to, what Ino thought to be a bathroom. She came back with a cotton ball bag, gauze, skin tape, a bowl of warm water, and anti-biotic ointment. Sakura walked in front of Ino and placed all the supplies on the bed stand, she then sat next to Ino on the bed. She grabbed a cotton ball and started to gently rub it against Ino's bite marks. Ino bit her bottom lip at the pain that cruised through her body. After Sakura was all done cleaning her neck wounds, she put the gauze on her neck and taped it there, then cleaned the back of her head.
"There I'm all done now," she said.
"It doesn't take the pain or dizziness away, though," Ino said gently touching her neck. "Thanks, though."
Sakura gave a small smile. "Sorry, but that's all I can do for you. You're welcome though."
"It's okay, I can endure pain better than others, it seems," she said.
"I can tell. When I was first awakened I was unconscious for an hour or so."
"Really?" Sakura nodded. "Wow… I guess I really can endure pain more than most."
"I guess." Sakura said, she then looked at the cheap watch on her wrist and new she needed to get back to her chores before she gets another beaten. She bowed and said, "I must depart now." Ino nodded as Sakura turned to leave, but a thought suddenly came to Ino.
"Your name's Sakura, right?"
Sakura stopped just before grabbing the door handle and back at Ino. "Y-Yeah, but how-"
"I heard Sasuke call you by that." She replied.
"Oh, right," she said. Sakura went to turn around, but then thought of something. "Now that you're a vampire, you'll need blood soon, to strengthen you up. Prince Sasuke will probably let you have some tomorrow night. Also, you need to call him formally. Like Prince or my lord." After that, she left.
Ino sat there for a little while longer thinking, He's not my Prince. After a few more minutes went by, she yawned and started to feel more dizzy and tired. She decided to lay down on the bed. It was surprisingly comfy and without notice she fell asleep.
There, another story that I wanted to put up(:
No clue when the next chapter will be out though.
