An Endless Forbidden Love

"If you love someone set them free. If they come back it was meant to be; if they don't...they were never yours in the first place."

Chapter 1: 457 years later...

"Now the fourth option for a heart problem is a transplant. The transplant is the only thing used when the heart has a very critical major problem with the arteries, or even when they have burst, thus exploding blood to the lungs with can cause a person to drown internally. When the-" The professor paused when he was interrupted by the bell. "Okay, people, remember the 70 page essay on the heart is due tomorrow!" The whole class groaned in remembrance as they had exited the class.

"Aw, I wish Kanama-sensei would reduce it to friggin' 10 pages." A dark haired girl muttered as she walked past a petite young woman.

Haruno Sakura sighed as she quickly gathered her notes and slid them in her black folder. Her pink bubblegum hair swayed teasingly around her oval-like face as her huge expensive green emerald stones darted around her nervously as the class began to empty. Today is a big day for her.

To break up with Ryuu.

Their beginning of eternal love diminished into a vast of emptiness.

As she walked out of the building, Sakura can hear whispers clouding behind her.

"She's so lucky."

"Especially The Brain!"

"She's soooo smart!"

"To date a star and have such a great bod."

"Ohhhh, Shinji Ryuu."

"Yeah! That H-O-T rocker!"

"Damn, he must shower her with gifts."

"And sex."

Sakura shuddered at the thought of how many people wanted to be at her place. To be next to Ryuu, the ONE perfect God-made creature every type of woman has ever dreamed of. She shook her head as she pitied them; they had no idea how much Sakura would like to be away from him both mentally and physically. To live a free life from abuse, and the fear that he has given her from the second month of their relationship.

As Sakura put her things inside her car, her leg was vibrating constantly, due to her nerves, so that her foot was tapping the gravel of the concrete with impatience and nervousness. She then got inside the small white Camry and began to drive from the college.

The John Hopkins College of Medicine.

The pain to endure

The panic to feel

The depression to lift

The smell to be free

Is so much more than expected.

It was almost night for the three hour drive to talk to Ryuu. "I can do this. Just get in and get the hell out before he even gets a chance to hit you." Sakura's voice trembled in fear as she entered the club, Nightmoon. Inside all the men she had known, they were so similar like beasts; they both desire for a haven which cannot be sought.

As she entered the club, Sakura can smell a musky odor of cigar, alcohol and sweat in the air. She wrinkled her nose in disgust as she noticed many women wearing skimpy clothes that barely covered any of their body. Men were there with the women practically engulfed in their lap. Her emerald eyes continued to only scanned the club for Ryuu. They widened as he was on stage with his band singing a song to practice for their next big concert.

Ryuu's eyes also spotted Sakura and grinned an evil smile that made her flinch hard. He began to sing and point at her within the lyrics.

Die, die, die my darling

Don't utter a single word

Die, die, die my darling

Just shut your pretty eyes

I'll be seeing you again

I'll be seeing you...in-

HELL!

Her eyes widened in shock as he screamed out the last word. Does he know that she came here to break off connections? Did he really want her to be damned in eternal damnation? Her legs felt weak, that she was forced to sit at a nearby table and continue to watch her boyfriends show.

So don't cry to me oh baby

Your futures in an oblong box

Don't cry to me oh baby

You should have seen it a-coming on

Don't cry to me oh baby

I don't know it was in your card

Don't cry to me oh baby

Dead-end soul for a dead-end girl

Don't cry to me oh baby

And now your life drains on the floor

Don't cry to me oh baby

She didn't know how her face was expressed. She felt shocked and such fear that trembled up and down her spine. But Ryuu kept singing as if she looked like she was enjoying it! He was singing as if it were meant for her.

The last lyric flew from his lips and in an instant he was next to her.

As he came, he grabbed her arms to yank her off from her chair. He then grabbed the back of her head hard, so that he had roughly made their lips meet in a bruising kiss. His band made howls and kissing noises from the stage.

Sakura held herself still as her lips began to hurt under this animalistic pressure. She knew that if she even lifted a finger to interrupt the kiss, Ryuu would hit her like a dog. He was an animal, a beast that was so inhumane that wouldn't and couldn't possibly be tamed.

"Hey babe," Ryuu's deep voice made her quiver. His blue eyes looked deep into Sakura as his obsidian-colored hair covered almost half of his face. His blonde roots were about an inch long. Sweat cling to his face and to the end of his strands that made Sakura lean away from him. The alcohol of Budweiser was another reason why she winced horribly and backed away, as he continued to talk. There was an awful stench that was floating in the air around him.

"Did you gain some weight?" Ryuu asked as his face twisted into a horror of disgust. "You better lose it and look like one of those hot hookers." As he said this he eyed a waitress walking towards his band. He then looked back at her with his upper lip curled up. "Your very presence offends me when you look fat. Just think of it, the TV crew will see me with a fat girlfriend. It will put down my reputation."

Sakura flinched but didn't dare say anything that might go against his words. His words went through her like a dagger. She didn't even bother defending herself. "Ryuu-kun, um, I have something very..." She hesitated as she suddenly saw a flash of emotion go through his eyes. "...important to tell you." She ended it with a whisper.

"So do I!" His voice boomed through the club. "Let me go first." Ryuu sat Sakura down on the chair she was in before and went down on one knee. "Sakura-chan," He started as he yanked her hand towards his chest. "We had our ups and downs, but I love you with all my heart. Will you marry me?"

A pin was heard through the club,

Breath's were held in

And all the hearts thump fast

While one stopped beating.

Sakura moved her mouth, but no sound was made. She looked at Ryuu with large-wide eyes as the blood in her veins was icy cold and her skin became clammy. They have only been together for eight months and he was proposing to her. He treated her as if she was some rag doll that had no emotions or feelings. He only cared to be like those other famous celebrities along with his reputation.

Ryuu's eyes lightened up immensely and stood quickly. "She's speechless. Yet she tells me yes with the look in her eyes!" He announces to the club.

Everybody cheered in joy but they didn't even notice Sakura slightly shaking her head slowly from side to side.

"No..." She whispered.

Ryuu's head snapped towards her as the club began to quiet. "What?" He growled out. Immediately, the club began to lessen with people at the tone of his voice.

"No." She repeated with strength in her voice. "I came to break up with you."

Her boyfriend let out his anger as he finally came awake with a vicious growl, then lashed out at her. Her head snapped to her right as a loud cracking whip-like sound was heard through the club. A stinging pain was flaming on her cheek as she held herself tightly to the chair. Sakura gasped as she held her hand to her cheek.

"No, you wont!" Ryuu's face darkened and grabbed her hard by the shoulders. "We will be together forever, and if we were to break up, I WILL DO IT!" His hold on her was much harder that Sakura had to bite her tongue in order not to cry out. His eyes pierced her with an angry stare; they were severe and cutting with its intensity that it was unbelievable that she could stand it.

I just want to breathe...

She felt her eyes tear up and her lips began to tremble and quiver. Throughout their whole relationship, she has been the weak one and hit as if she was a rag doll. She was agitated at how fast her entire life was changing and how powerless she was to stop it. She hated being fake and smiley at him, as he continued to look at her as if she was a pebble in his shoe. An unknown feeling suddenly brushed up against her very soul, and a small flame in her flared big. This time she will defend herself.

Hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn

"No!" She pushed Ryuu away from her and stood up from the chair. "I will not be with you anymore, you bastard. I am sick of you and your abuse!"

His eyes were wide as he stared at this new side of his girlfriend. His EX-girlfriend.

"I will not be tormented ever again, you twisted-pig. I'm not giving up my entire life just to be with you! We are over and I broke this relationship. Not you." Fire ignited in her eyes as she looked down on Ryuu. "Go to Hell by yourself, bastard." With those last words, Sakura turned and left the club.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

As soon as she was in her car, she breathed hard and her eyes darted to the review mirror as her hand clenched at the steering wheel. She half-expected Ryuu to run out of the club and chase her through the streets. Sakura quickly put the car in drive and started her three hour drive car. Finally, in a long time, she actually had the will to think to herself.

I can't believe I did it.

He cursed as his body was on fire. There was hot liquid that rolled off the surface of his skin and practically burned his hair off. His hair was slicked with hot saliva-like sludge and his face glistened from the pole lights on the streets. He had a severe, pounding ache in his skull that seemed to be echoed in every single part of his body. A strong aura rang out from the air that surrounded him. It was predatory, sinister. The air of danger around him was supreme power that speaks of agility and speed. He laid in an alleyway next to some cars and apartments as he struggled to get up.

"Finally after 457 years, Hell decides to kick me out." He muttered as he wiped the fire-like water off his face. If he had stayed in Hell for much longer, then they would've killed him within a heartbeat. "Just because of my insanity..." He smirked at that thought. He is practically the only calm devil ever to exist in Hell. He has been calm ever since... An image ripped through his head and he held his hand to it.

"457 years after she died..."

457 years of tortured dreams

457 years of walking through Hell like a madman

457 years of insanity.

Insanity is the reason why he is spat out from Hell.

Betrayal is the reason why he is banished from Heaven.

"Sakura." Uchiha Sasuke obscured his face from everyone's view with his bangs, which caressed his forehead lightly. He limped down the street as he held his left arm; his breathing was labored, as he tried his best not to pass out. It was shredded and bruised from the other devils trying to throw him out. Unnaturally, he held no concern or worry to it because he knew in a few minutes, it will be as good as new. Sasuke let out a sinister smirk as he remembered the devil he had killed on his way out. "Weak and pathetic. They should've put me out of my misery instead of kicking me out. I'll just be back for more."

It's not bad enough to beat an attacker

Hurt them enough that they know not to touch you anymore.

Or preferably...

Kill them.

He stayed in the shadows like some lounging predator that has been hurt bad. "Nothing matters but you. Even if I can't go in Heaven...even if I'm spit out of Hell, I will find you, Sakura." He was bizarre, sneering every so often with the air of lethal danger surrounding him.

He slowed down when he felt a familiar shiver run down his spine, as he felt the sensation of someone watching him from the shadows. Suddenly, a sharp metallic object pressed against a pulse on his neck and broke the first thin layer of skin. A drop of blood seeped from the skin and dribbled down his neck. Sasuke froze but his eyes darkened with anger and narrowed as a voice was heard.

"Too bad, because now I'll rob you and kill you before you can find your sweetie pie."

Within a quick slice of the knife, the man cut Sasuke's neck and his body collapsed on the floor with a hard thud. A single gurgle was heard throughout the night and blood splattered heavily on the floor.

The mugger laughed cruelly as he put the knife in his pocket. "This is all too easy." Thus, the robber began to scurry his hands through the pants of Sasuke, trying to find anything valuable he could have. He then muttered curses as he found nothing.

"A waste of my time, this fool." The guy stood over the body and started walking away. He was gone as he turned the corner.

Sasuke coughed hard as his body racked with every heavy breath he took. He looked down at his black-red blood that has spilled upon the pavement with half-lidded eyes as he struggled to get up. The tips of his fingers lightly probed on the deep cut on his neck, which began to heal instantly before his eyes.

"Damn that bastard." He coughed weakly as he continued to walk down the empty road. All the blood that spilled from the murder was making him weaker by the minute. He growled miserably as he knew that he was to pass out in time.

He wasn't even a couple yards away from his spilled blood when he started to breathe hard.

Sasuke heard a car parked noisily behind him and a pair of feet started patting quickly on the sidewalk. A gasp was heard as Sasuke stopped walking. Sweat began to gather around his brow as he tried hard not to pass out. He heard someone running towards him. Concern and alertness practically stunk in the air, along with the sophistication and money that bled from their every pore, as the person approached him.

"Annoying weak humans." He let out a fierce, animalistic growled out as a hand tentatively landed on his shoulder.

You don't pull a devil's tail unless you want to die.

"Are you ok? I saw a suspicious man walking around the corner and when I drove by this street, I see you limping and there's so much blood on the floor and-" The soft feminine voice was interrupted.

"I don't need help." Sasuke snapped as he roughly shrugged her hand from his shoulder.

"Excuse me? You're hurt and in need of help." The female's voice was filled with authority and was very firm. "Come here, I can-" Before she could even touch him, Sasuke whipped his head around in anger.

"JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" As he whipped around, Sasuke cut a sinister glare at the person. "I CAN...take care of..." His face was plastered with a shocking emotion as he became speechless. His icy heart stopped, if it were possible, all together with his blood as his mouth began to stutter. The image of the person cut through him like a knife.

To meet again

in a dreary moment

And on a clear dark night

Might you be able to see each other

Forever

"S-S...Sakura?"

"Only someone who has experienced Death can confront it."
