Naruto is not mine xP

Sakura's eyes flickered open, closed, continuing in this pattern for a few moments more before finally opening completely and taking in the room she was situated in.

The walls were grey stone-like tile, cut into large squares along the wall the bed was placed. Light hardwood flooring covered the room, with a dark grey shag rug at the foot of the bed. Speaking of the bed: it was on the ground, with a wood paneling over the side and no space underneath to hide. There goes that plan, she thought wryly. The sheets were a black, as well as the pillow next to hers. She was resting on a dull grey-blue pillow and comforter. There were no pictures of family, or any personal items to be honest, just blank wall space. On one side of the bed there was a large balcony, overlooking a beautiful garden, complete with a single Sakura tree. Hmm… the doors were open, and it didn't sound like anyone was outside.

Sakura shot up, only to collapse. Damn, she recalled that he had made her pass out from the blood loss. She growled openly, as if daring him to appear. Who is he anyways? She wondered. He had never told her his name, yet he knew hers. And if she was correct, he wore the emblem of a high ranking officer for… "Oh shit!" She uttered, before renewing the struggle of standing. There was no way she was going to get caught; she did not want to deal with her again. She finally got herself to the edge of the bed and forced herself up, her stride slow and with a slight limp.

When Sakura finally got herself to the balcony, she realized why he left the doors open. She felt as though she was going to pass out again, yet she couldn't have gone more than ten feet. She whimpered in frustration, before falling to the floor again.

"I thought you were smarter than this." A voice called a few feet behind her. She twisted her head slowly, and noting that it was, in fact, the same man as in the alley way… the one who had taken so much blood, caused her to be so vulnerable.

"You… bastard!" She hissed, attempting to stand. He was over to her in a flash, and lifted her before tossing her lightly onto the bed and arriving there within the same second. He climbed on top of her, straddling her waist, gripping her wrists tightly and bringing his face close to hers.

"Care to repeat that?" He growled, before lifting his head and holding her wrists together with one hand. He pointed at the swirling mark on his right arm and smirked. "You know what this is. Don't cross me, or you know what will happen."

She glared at him. "Of course I know what that means!" She wiggled her left arm slightly. "If you let me go, I'll show you exactly what I mean."

Sasuke just stared at her, giving her a of-course-I-know-what-your-talking-about look, before speaking. "I know. I've read your file, Haruno Sakura, and I know that you betrayed Tsunade and our creator."

Sakura visibly winced at the name of her former mentor, as well as almost-mother. It had been a while… she thought time would ease the sharp pang in her chest at that name. Looks like she was wrong. The memories faded as much as the tattoo symbolizing her status as a Hunter did. None.

"Don't speak of her to me!" She spat, tossing her head to the side and avoiding eye contact with the man atop her. She then realized that she did not know the man's name. "What's your name, anyways?"

"You don't need to know." He smirked, before releasing her wrists and sliding off of her. "But, since you don't seem too bad, I'll tell you. Uchiha Sasuke."

Sakura's eyes widened before narrowing as she rubbed her sore wrists. "Why would you, a high-class Hunter, have to come after me, a simple rogue? I'm sure you have worse vampires to hunt." She tried to keep the surprise at his name to a minimum in her voice, but it was hard to conceal the fact that she was so obviously wanted by the Society.

"I have accepted an S-Class mission to bring you back here. We are at war with the humans who know of us… the 'People of Faith' they call themselves. They have figured out something, some way to get past our healing abilities. Tsunade will explain more when you meet with her." Sasuke watched as Sakura's eyes widened.

Oh, great. Now, I have to see Tsunade. In person. How can today get any better? She cursed under her breath.

He smirked at her. "I see you have taken up quite a few habits from her."

Sakura's eyes softened, and she found herself surprised by the fact that she was willing to pour her heart out to a man who almost killed her. "She… She took me in… when I first turned, I mean. No one was there. We still don't know who bit me, who turned me. She was like a mother to me. She taught me everything I needed to know about how to be a vampire. I… learned a lot from her." Sakura smiled, but it was wistful, containing ancient sadness.

"Why did you leave?" Sasuke was to the point, and held accusation in his voice, though he did try and conceal it slightly. Sakura heard it, and her face immediately darkened. Everyone was going to ask her that… she just wasn't ready to tell anyone. If she was being honest with herself, she would have to say that she didn't even know why she did it. It was definitely an impulsive decision, and it wasn't like she never thought about her life before.

"I don't need to tell you." She grumbled, getting up from the bed and feeling dizzy. She swayed before Sasuke sighed and got up, holding her so she did not tip.

"I think I took too much." He chuckled. "Your blood tastes good." He told her in a conversational tone.

"I can't say I hear that every day." She glowered at him. Then she thought back to how amazing it felt when he kissed her jaw, her neck, and realized they were in a very suggestive position, with her body pressed against his. She dropped her glare and tried to pull away, but he held tight, his hands wrapped around her body. She couldn't struggle due to blood loss, and it was cozy. He was warm compared to her, as if he was back from working out. She didn't know how long they stood like this.

"Tsunade wants to see you." He announced suddenly, pulling away abruptly. Sakura swayed again, but this time he just grabbed her elbow, holding her until she stopped tipping and stood still. He lead her to the door and out into a hallway, covered in light cream carpeting. They walked a while, making a few turns here and there before they stopped in front of a door. Inside, they yell of an annoyed woman echoed throughout the length of hallway, causing the two to cover their sensitive ears.

A plaque was screwed into the door, signaling that Sakura was back, and was now going to face the wrath of a woman who knew no boundaries when it came to her anger.

Love the ending!! Hehe

The "swirly pattern" is an ANBU symbol, if you didn't figure it out x3

Umm… 3-5 reviews please?
