Check Mate Story One
There was a slow and weak breathing in the room. Hinata took her mother's hand looking at her fragile body.
"Mom…" the little Hinata cried, her tears rolled down her cheek. She continued to watch as her mother died in her hands. The nun standing next to her patted her shoulder and took her away from the scene.
"At least you can faith in one man…" the nun opened the door that exposed a huge Jesus on a cross, "The Lord will protect your mom from now." Hinata looked at the figure and fell to her knees. "All you can do is pray."
Ten Years Later
Hinata's life was the same every day. She would study in Saint Michael School, go to church and pray and finally go to the dorms. Hinata attended an all girl school which had her very unexposed to the world. Now there was an all boy school right across the street. All the girls in school went wild thinking of ways to sneak in. Hinata had no interest in this; she only hoped that they wouldn't get in her way of her daily routine.
Hinata was kneed at the altar, trying not to focus on the harsh rain outside. Suddenly the doors behind her opened and a man fell to the ground. She jumped to her feet and ran to the weak body.
When she flipped him she found him to be beautiful. His black hair contrasted his pale skin, and his face was that would make all the girls in school fall in love. She tried to lift him up but he was too heavy, and her hand slipped.
"Oh!" She fell on her butt. She saw that her hand was filled with blood. "Sister!" Hinata crawled back to him and started to take off his shirt. There was a big gash with a piece of metal in it. "There's an emergency!"
"Madam…" The Father came out and stopped at his tracks. "Oh my, I'll get Sister Eva."
"He came out of the storm and into the church Sister." Hinata sipped her cup of tea. She peeked at the unconscious body in the bed. "Do you think he'll be ok?"
"It's hard to tell, we don't know when he got hurt. But at least we got that knife out of him." Sister Eva placed an extra blanket on him.
"Knife?" Hinata went pale.
"This wasn't an accident, he was almost murdered." The sister catches Hinata'a scared face. "Don't worry, he'll be safe here. You should go to sleep, class starts at six tomorrow."
"Hey Hina-chan, do you know that we're going to the new school to meet everyone?" Sakura smiled.
"No…" Hinata must've missed the announcement because of the accident yesterday. The classes started to gather in front of the school. They walked into the new schools gate.
"Wow! Look at the chicks!" Kiba shouted. Every single person had their head out the window watching as the girls pass by. The only ones sitting down were Shikamaru and Choji.
"What's the big deal?" Shikamaru signed and sat back. Choji threw out the empty potato chip bag and got out a new bag.
"You guys are so boring!" Naruto.
"And what do you guys think you're doing?" The teacher entered the class and the students ran back to their seats.
"Naruto you're so lucky your seat is right next to the window." Kiba complained. Naruto continued to watch the people.
"Hinata come on!" Sakura pulled Hinata towards the entrance. Naruto was stunned and blushed.
"Hey! Cat got you're tongue?" Kiba.
"No."
"Then what's up? Is there a girl you like Naruto?"
"Yeah, and she's my future girlfriend believe it!"
"Hey quiet down!" The teacher ordered them to line up in the hallway. Naruto was anxious to meet Hinata.
"Look at this place!" Sakura eyes sparkled as she saw the court yard. "It's like a paradise!" Hinata fell down in exhaustion. "Huh? Are you ok?"
"You didn't even let me inhale before we started to run." Hinata huffed. Ino laughed along with TenTen.
"You were too much for our little Hinata, Sakura." Ino snorted and they all began to laugh even louder.
"Sheesh, are all girls this loud?" Shikamaru was sitting under a tree behind them. "I rather be all alone then be here with a bunch of giggling girls."
"Hmp!" Sakura.
"Speak for your self!" Choji got up and walked up to Ino, "Nice to meet you."
"Sure…" Ino.
"May I help you up?" Hinata looked at the guy extending his hand. She just stared astonished. "I won't bite." She blushed hard and took his hand. "I'm Itachi, the owner of the this new school." She got on her feet. "Well, it was nice to meet you Hinata." He walked away.
"WOW He was SUPER HOT!" Sakura popped Hinata on the back. "What a score Hina-chan!"
"What? What do you mean score?"
"Yeah, he did seem to have an interest in you." Ino agreed.
"Not to mention he was looking at you the whole time." TenTen
"Hey Shikamaru you've been here this whole time?" Kiba ran up. Ino let out a whistle and winked at TenTen. TenTen smiled and gave her the good luck sign.
"Hi." Ino smiled and gave him an innocent look. "My name is Ino." Kiba took a minute to answer back.
"Nice to meet you, I'm—" Kiba was interrupted.
"Kiba!" Naruto ran up the hill towards them and saw Hinata at the corner of his eye. "Guys let's ditch the auditorium and hang with these chicks."
"Doesn't sound bad Naruto." Kiba agreed and Choji nodded.
"Well, nice to meet you…" Kiba and Naruto both went to shake Hinata's hand. Sakura was like a fan girl watching a romance movie.
"It was great meeting you guys." Sakura waved goodbye to the boys. "Hinata you're so lucky!"
"Man he was actually cute…" Ino was in complete depression. "Not one guy turned to look at me."
"Actually Choji seemed to like you." TenTen smiled.
"Yeah, I wonder if he's funny…I like funny guys." Ino wondered off. "What about you Sakura? Did you like anyone?"
"There was this guy named Gaara, he was cute." Sakura blushed.
"Sister Eva, are you here?" Hinata slightly opened the door and saw blood covering the floor. "Sister!" the sister was on the floor stabbed on the heart.
"Hina…" she managed to say.
"Sister who did this to you?" Hinata started to cry.
"Hinata, my dear don't give up hope. Don't cry I'll meet you in the future again…" she drifted to her death.
"What are we to do with the school now that the owner is dead?" Hinata looked at the police officer. "How can someone enter and kill everyone in the church, this was never to be anticipated."
"Ma'am all I know is that we'll have to send everyone back home on the meantime." The officer.
"What but this is my home, I have no where else to stay." Hinata.
"Then you can stay just for this week, unless some kind of miracle was to happen."
"I wonder what I'll do when they close this place up." She walks into the room where the patient was in. But the bed was empty. "Maybe they took him to a hospital." Hinata did her prayer and went to sleep in the empty house.
It was hot, too hot. Hinata felt sweat drops roll down her forehead and she turned around in the bed. Her face touched something that was soft in texture but hard like stone. Her hand touched this thing in front of her and trailed it up. She touched…lips? Her eyes shot opened to see two other eyes looking at her. She tried to give distance but he held her tight, she didn't even budge. He pulled her in closer, her face feeling not a single heartbeat. For the first time Hinata felt like she was in the right place.
"Ana…" he fainted. Hinata's heart dropped and she released herself from his cradling arms. Water sting her eyes and she started to cry and she didn't know the reason why.
"You've done excellent my friend." Itachi. Sai bowed and looked at his master. "Too bad you didn't find Sasuke, but don't worry I have it all planned out."
"Hinata!" Sakura ran up to her giving her a bug hug. "I'm so happy!"
"What's going on?" Hinata was confused when she saw the small group of girls rejoicing.
"We're not leaving! Itachi bought the school and we're transferring to the new building!" Ino. "And best of all, there'll be boys!" Hinata hated change.
"Hey Hinata!" Naruto shouted from the end of the classroom. "There's an empty desk here!"
"That's mine." Kiba punched him in the shoulder.
"Come on…" Naruto complained. Sakura pulled Hinata towards a desk near the guys and they sat down. "So Hina-chan what do you search for in a guy?" Hinata blushes.
"In a guy?"
"Come on don't be shy Hinata!" Sakura.
"Well, I want a guy who can make me madly in love." Hinata shyly said.
"Ek! Hinata that's so romantic." Sakura hugged herself.
"Will you give me the chance?" Naruto blue eyes glowed. Hinata looked at his strong spirit and smiled nodding.
It was lunch and Hinata was sitting with Naruto under a tree alone. She had seemed off that day and Naruto thought of the best way to cheer her up.
"Hinata, what's going on?"
"Nothing." She was wondering about the patient that she cried for and woke up without. Naruto touched her hand and kissed her in the cheek. Hinata reddened.
"Did you like it?" his face was right in front of hers. He kissed her lips again and again, until she started to press hers hard on his. She started to fall for him. She had to admit his company was like no other, and his love for her was infecting her. She wanted him more and more everyday.
But he could never the feeling she had when she was with the patient. He pulled her off for a moment and chuckled. He slightly opened her mouth and put his tongue in. she started to hesitate. He came out.
"Calm down you'll bite my tongue, or is it you don't like it?"
"No...I mean I like it. Don't stop please." He went in again and he explored every inch of her mouth. She joined in; their tongues were clashing and going wild in toxicity. They stopped to take a breather.
"So are you madly in love yet?" Naruto looked deep in her eyes.
"I don't know, I think I have to try out that one more time." They kissed again and stopped. "What about now?"
"I'm not sure…" he pushed her to the floor her hair was all over the place. He started to unzip her jacket. She was wearing a tight black shirt under, it touched every curve she had.
"I know I am." He got on top. "How do you feel now?" Hinata's body shivered in enjoyment.
"I think I'm falling in love with you Naruto, if I'm not yet." She admitted.
Itachi looked at the romantic scene between Naruto and Hinata and grew angry. He had wanted her only for himself, and that's the reason he bought the school. He wanted to be close to her, to make sure she always is his.
"I heard!" Sakura squealed. "You and Naruto are a thing!" Hinata looked down and nodded slowly.
"Congrats!" Ino and TenTen.
"Class get to your seats we have a new student who'll be joining us from now on." The Teacher let Sasuke in. Hinata gasped, he was the patient that disappeared.
"My name is Sasuke Uchiha nice to meet you all." Sasuke bowed and sat next to Hinata. Naruto crossed his arms and didn't take his eyes from Sasuke.
"I think I'm in love." Sakura eyes turned into hearts at the thought of Sasuke.
"No way he's mine Sakura, didn't you see the way he directed his greetings to me?" Ino.
"What do you mean? He clearly likes me better!" Sakura.
"I don't think he has a taste for big foreheads!"
"Or smart mouths!" They were head to head when Sasuke sat on their table. Naruto wrapped his arm around Hinata's shoulder.
"Oh, Sasuke what brings you here?" Sakura.
"Just want to make some friends that's all." Sasuke smiled.
"There's an announcement for all students would love to hear. This Friday is Halloween, so the school is going to throw a costume dance that day. Class will be cancelled and the party will start at six and end at twelve that night. That is all I have to say, have a nice day."
"Yay! A costume party I can't wait!" Sakura. Everyone started to talk about what they would wear. Hinata looked at Sasuke for one second to find him look back at her.
"So Hinata what are you going to wear?" Sakura fixed her witch cape and added more lip gloss on her lips.
"AHH!" Ino cried in agony and fell to the floor.
"I'm sorry Ino but it won't close." TenTen let go of the zipper on the bunny suit. "I guess you—" she was cut off.
"Don't you dare say it!" Ino looked at the tag. SIZE: 4 "No wonder its two sizes smaller."
"You did say four right, cause that's what I wrote when you made me fill in the papers." TenTen looked at the tag also.
"Someone's in denial." Sakura teased.
"Shut up you! There was this really hot guy…" Ino touched her forehead lightly, "What am I to do now?" She turned and bumped into Hinata. "Where's your custome?"
"I don't have one. I was just going to go in my nun suit." Hinata answered and everyone stopped what they were doing to stare at her.
"ARE YOU CRAZY!" They all shouted.
"A nun, that's so not sexy." Sakura.
"Even I wouldn't…" TenTen.
"Hey what size are you Hinata?" Ino.
"I think I'm a four, but sometimes I'm a three…" she started to think hard. She hadn't worn normal clothing in a while.
"Perfect, try this on!" Ino handed her the bunny suit and pushed her into the closet. "Come on don't struggle, just try it!"
"Um…" Hinata arms are wrapped around her chest area. "Don't you think this is showing too much?"
"As long as Itachi doesn't say anything you're not going to get in trouble." Sakura reassured her. Hinata felt naked, having her legs bare and her chest half out.
"I'm so lucky that I was able to buy this maids outfit just in time." Ino started to laugh.
"Ugh…shut up." Shikamaru and the gang were walking behind them.
"Why didn't you guys tell us you were there?" TenTen protested.
"Hey I like you're ninja outfit!" Naruto shouted he was wearing one too.
"Hey Naruto what do you think of Hinata's outfit?" Sakura pulled her forward. Naruto blushed hard, and tried to hide his face.
"She looks nice…" Naruto scratched his cheek.
"Well, I think she looks stunning." Sasuke came up from the group and grabbed Hinata's hand kissing it.
"WHOAH! Hands off my girlfriend!" Naruto grabbed his shoulder tightly.
"She won't be for long." Sasuke mutters.
"What?" Naruto is caught off guard.
"I'll wait for the moment, when I could sweep you away Hina-chan." Sasuke walks away from the silent crowd.
Hinata sat down for a while; the soles of her feet were aching from the dancing. Naruto went to get her a drink. Sakura was laughing uncontrollably, her cheeks were bright red. Someone must've spiked the punch, Hinata thought. After a few minutes she noticed that the whole group including Naruto was drunk.
"Yeah!" Sakura snorted. "She's sooooo shy!"
"I know!" Naruto, "You don't know how long it took me to just kiss her." Hinata notice it was her they were talking about.
"Naruto and I made a bet that he wouldn't be able to get her in bed in two months!" Kiba.
"You guys are, hiccup, mean…"TenTen.
"I really wanted to date Sakura but I thought Hinata would be easier to get in her skirt." Naruto wrapped his arms around Sakura. Hinata started to cry.
"Just when I started to fall in love…" Hinata wiped her tears, as she watches Naruto and Sakura smutch. She gets up and darts out the room falling to the ground in an empty hallway.
"Hinata…" an unfamiliar voice said behind her.
"Oh…" Naruto's head was pounding. He was in a bed and it wasn't his. He looked at the black hair in front of him, and pulled the girl towards him. The black wig fell off and pink hair was exposed. "Wha?"
"Who are you?" Hinata asked as she was being tied to a bed. "Why are you doing this to me?"
"Master, I am done." Sai bowed as Itachi came into the light.
"Thank you Sai, you've done a great job." Itachi pulls Hinata hair back. "You can leave now; I'll take care of this." Sai retreats and closes the door behind him. Itachi jumps on the bed laying on top her. She started to cry hysterically. "Check Mate, Sasuke."
"NO!" Hinata shouted on the top of her lungs.
Three Days Later
"I haven't seen Hinata at all…I wonder if she's ok." TenTen holds back her tears.
"I know, but sometimes it just makes me wonder." Ino gazes at the happy couple, Naruto and Sakura.
"Those bastards…" Kiba starts to shake in anger. "What if they—"
"Let's not draw to conclusions, their friends too." Shikamaru, "They care for her too."
"I can totally see that. Their sooo worried their just crying non-stop!" Ino's voice started to rise. Sakura made her way up to where the girls are sitting.
"Hey girls." Sakura comes with a big smile. They ignore her turning their heads away. "What's going on?" she was worried.
"Why don't you just leave, we don't want you near us." Ino.
"What are you saying?"
"Oh, shut up! We're telling you to get the hell away from us!" TenTen. Everyone looked at her with complete surprise, this was unexpected of her. Sakura winced and gazed at the floor.
"I see…"she said weakly, returning to Naruto's side.
Hinata couldn't remember the last time she ate, slept, or even said anything. She had grown numb in the pain and agony. Every time she closed her eyes she would see Itachi's laughing face as he abused her. Sometimes she wished to cry, but no tears came out.
Her mind strayed to the person who made her feel the most comfortable, Sasuke.
"Ha, that's a funny one TenTen." Ino fingers went typing in words. The girls were making a facebook for Sakura.
"Look at this picture that looks just like her." TenTen started to giggle.
"You girls are evil." Kiba trembled.
"Here I wrote the profile thing you told me to." Shikamaru handed a paper to Ino.
"That's perfect Shika-kun!" Ino rejoiced.
"It's Shikamaru."
"This is going to be fun!" Ino smiled evilly.
Hinata was cold, her body was shaking. No matter how tight she hid under the blanket she just couldn't get warm.
"Hinata," Gaara crawled out of the darkness, "Sasuke told me to get you." She shifted her body away from his touch. "It's ok, I'm Sasuke's agent." Hinata gave in; she had nothing better to do.
As Sakura entered the class the students started to sneer and murmur. She sat on her seat.
"You look tired." Ino commented. Sakura was surprised to see talking to her again.
"Well, I've been getting weird phone calls lately, and it's been keeping me up." Sakura rubbed her eyes. "Ah! Naruto!" Naruto glanced at her and walk towards the other side of the room. "Naruto?" Ino turned and snickered.
"Hina…" Hinata could hear a voice from a far. It echoed in her ears over and over again. She could feel something warm near her, and since she was so frozen she clung to it and embraced it. She noticed that she lacked her clothing, maybe which was why she was so cold. She opened her eyes to see the most beautiful eyes looking back.
At that glance she started to cry harshly, she cried those tears that wouldn't come out. The person's arms pulled her closer, and Sasuke held her in his arms.
"Don't cry." He kissed her lips lifting her face closer to his. He started to kiss her passionately, making her forget all her troubles.
Sakura was alone. She didn't know why everyone was treating her so bad and worst of the phone never stops ringing. Her hands were shaking when she lifted the gun from the table. Tears strolled down her cheeks.
The world hated her; she just couldn't take it anymore. She pointed it to her head unlocking the safety.
"I'm so sorry Hinata…I did this to you—"
All that was heard that day was a gun shot. That night Sakura's dead body was found on the floor. She had died instantly.
"I want to tell you the truth Hinata" Sasuke sat across the table from her. "I want to tell you my past." Hinata put down her coffee cup.
Sasuke's Past
Itachi had just disappeared out of thin air. No one knew where he could be. Sasuke was ignored by his parents and was alone all the time. There was only one certainty that he was to inherit the company when he turned eighteen.
Two days before his birthday Gaara his assistant was doing an errand. But a few hours later he came back bleeding.
"Master Itachi…he's…a monster." Gaara fainted. Sasuke ran to the main house and his whole family was murdered.
"My dear brother." Itachi laughed in the dark.
"Why did you do this Itachi?"
"To destroy everything you love, and one day it will be the person you love the most." Itachi, "But now I'll have to live with this." In a blur he was behind Sasuke. Sasuke felt pain take over his body as he fell to the ground. He looked up to his brother who stepped into the light, but all he could see were his fangs glistening in blood.
"That was many years ago," Sasuke looked at Hinata's unchanging face, "Now I'll tell you how I met you." Hinata got confused. "I've known you longer then you think."
Sasuke had been wondering the world without a purpose. He never craved blood; he ate like a normal human. He had guessed that this was some kind of power bestowed upon him. He was a vampire who acted like a human, sleeping and eating like any other.
One day as he was hunting down a deer a small girl came up to him.
"Hi! My name is Hinata." She was to the first to smile at him, even when he was a human people would fear him.
"I met you and I knew you were the one for me. It's not like I'm interested in little girls, but I had a feeling." Hinata seemed to stop breathing. "Then Itachi fought me stabbing me with his hand leaving me to die. And then I found you again. For the first time I was in love."
"Sasuke." Hinata touched his hand.
"You know what the worst part is, even though I don't crave blood yours attracts me." He was behind her rubbing his lips up and down her neck. "It smells intoxicating."
"Convert me."
"What?"
"I want to be with you Sasuke! You make me feel at home, and every time I'm with you it like it was meant to be." Sasuke started to kiss her again.
"I'm so happy." Sasuke pressed him lips on her neck, "Is this what you really want?"
"I want it more then anything."
"There's no turning back."
"I don't care as long as I'm with you."
"Sakura did her part in my plans but now it seems my queen is gone Sai, where has she gone?" Itachi looks at the empty room.
"It seems Sasuke has her." Sai was knocked out.
"My dear has come back?" Itachi looks at the pale woman before him. "I've missed you, but too bad you didn't come back alone, right Sasuke?"
"Brother." Sasuke went to attack him but Itachi's metal hand cut his abdomen spilling blood everywhere.
"Sasuke!" Hinata got angry.
"What are you to do? If you draw closer you'll die like you're lover."
"Who said I have to draw closer?" Hinata smirked. Itachi's arms exploded and he shriek in pain.
"What the hell!" his other arm exploded.
"This is for Sasuke!" Itachi started to feel pressure on his head.
"NO! NO! DON'T KILL ME!"
"Stop…" Sasuke grabbed her ankle. "Let him be, he can't hurt us now." Hinata let him go, and Itachi jumped out of the window running to his death.
"Sasuke…" Hinata bent down losing her collar so that he could drink some of her blood. "It'll heal you."
"Ino, don't you feel bad for Sakura, we caused her death." TenTen started to feel quilt.
"No, she deserved it. She took away Hinata from us just to get her boyfriend. She was nothing more then a horrid wench." Ino tried not to say it loud enough for the family members to hear.
"It's such an empty funeral." TenTen looked around the small crowd. At one instant she saw a white figure in the forest. She recognized the dead pale skin and empty eyes, it was Hinata. "I guess she really is dead." Hinata disappeared in a blur.
"What did you say TenTen?" Ino looked at TenTen tear streaked face.
"Nothing, nothing at all."
