The Vampire Legend

Disclaimer: I don't know why, but I've been in the mood for vampires. I read a lot of vampire stories, so I decided to do my own!

Ch.1 – The Legend

Blood stained the walls and floor, the smell filling the entire room. A small boy no older than three was hidden in the closet, the door fully closed and engulfing him in darkness. Eyes were tightly shut and hands covered his ears as another scream was heard and more blood was shed, seeping under the door and drenching what parts of the boy it touched in red.

After what seemed like hours, silence greeted the small boy for several moments, and he slowly opened bright blue eyes. He opened the door, and sat in shocked silence at the scene before him. His parents body parts scattered throughout the room. In the middle stood a man with ferocious red eyes and deep red hair. His black kimono stained a darker color and dripped blood, black bat-like wings spread out behind him. A fox sat at his side, reaching his hip, it's five tails waving behind it. The man smirked and started towards the boy. He reached his hand for him, a strange glow covering it. The boy finally gained enough sense to scream as the hand inched closer, bright red eyes gleaming in the moonlight.

Blue eyes snapped open, sweat glistening on his tan skin as he sat up. His chest rose and fell quickly as he tried to calm his heart. He closed his eyes for a second, and when he opened them gain, the red light from his digital clock was reflected eerily in them. He finally calmed his heart and sat there a moment, eyes blank as he recalled his dream…or rather…a past memory. He vaguely remembered that another man had run in, said something in a strange language, and then darkness. He sighed and ran a hand through his messy hair before standing up and stretching.

He went through his morning ritual (breakfast, shower, brush teeth, get dressed) before heading out to start his day.

The day was colder than it looked, and he was glad that he had brought his trench coat as he walked down a deserted alley in the wrong side of town. His job was this way, and he knew that to get there, he was going to pass quite a few people that would challenge him. It happened every day, and after years of this job, he had gotten to the point where he would just ignore them. Of course, growing up as he did, it was to be expected. His parents being murdered by the devil himself, and then the devil being sealed within him, no one wanting to raise a boy like him. He had had to teach himself things…how to survive, hoe to live with both races hating him.

The door closed behind him and he made his way towards the top floor to his boss's office. On the way, he passed classrooms full of students who glanced his way before staring with wide eyes, the teachers waving at him. He nodded in reply as he continued. He would of liked to say hello to Tsunade and Hinata in the Nurse's Ward, but that was two stories down. He reached the top floor, and quickly walked towards the last door on the right. He reached to open the door just as it opened and Neji and Gaara stepped out, stopping short as they almost collided with Naruto, who quickly stepped backward.

"Naruto?" Neji asked, surprised, closing the door behind him.

"Hi!" Naruto greeted, snapping out his somber state. Gaara narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Is something bothering you?" Gaara asked. Naruto looked at him for a second before looking off to the side.

"Just that dream again…nothing else." He said. The other two looked at each other before turning back to Naruto.

"Sorry about your troubles, but we need to go, and you need to report in." Neji said.

"Yeah. You're right. I'll see you later." he siad, walking around them to enter, but a hand on his shoulder stopped him. He turned his head to look at them.

"Just remember, Naruto. We're always here for you...no matter what." Gaara said, Neji noddin in agreement. Naruto stared with wide eyes for a second before smiling brightly.

"I know!"

They nodded and turned to leave while Naruto entered the room. He closed the door before bowing to the man behind the desk.

"Is there a mission for me today?" he asked. The man looked at him.

"Yes. You are to rescue a young man who has been captured by a large group of vamipres."

"Right." Naruto nodded, "Where are they located?"

"They are located in the rundown warehouse by the sea."

Naruto nodded again.

"When do I start?"

"Tonight. When your powers are at their fullest. You'll need them."

Five minutes later, Naruto was closing the door and walking down the hall. He had three hours to get ready.

'Stinking, lousy vampires! I'm getting tired of chasing them down!'
