So before I start I'm just going to say something.

Sasunaru is my OTP. This is a Sasunaru fic. Of course, im going to be focusing on them as individual characters as opposed to just focusing on them as a couple. I want this story to be a bit more complex.

As far as setting, this is completely non-canon of the Narutoverse, and about a year or two after Breaking Dawn.

Now, I'm going to try to have significantly longer chapters than I'm used to writing so updates may be slow.

Other than that, please enjoy this chapter: )

X~X

The next morning after a hot shower, Naruto made his way to the kitchen, following the sweet smell of pancakes. Esme was flipping a pancake on the frying pan and a little girl who looked to be about ten years old sat on a stool at the island in the center of the large kitchen.

"Good morning, Naruto," Esme greeted. "I hope you slept well. You seemed exhausted last night."

The blond nodded. "Yeah, I was." He smile nervously. "Thanks again. I know this is probably a burden to your coven and all."

The older vampire shook her head. "Nonsense."

Naruto glanced at the little girl sitting down, who was staring at him, and waved. She didn't wave back. She just turned away as soon as Esme sat a plate of pancakes in front of her.

"This is Reneesme. She doesn't talk much." She gave Naruto his plate. "She's just like you." Hearing this, Naruto gave a quizzical look. "She's also half human," Esme clarified. "Edward and Bella's daughter."

Naruto didn't know who exactly they were but assumed they also lived in the house. He didn't say anything and began to eat, occasionally sending sideways glances to the Reneesme. When they were finished eating she silently got up and left the kitchen, and Esme grabbed both of their plates.

"She's very lucky," Naruto heard himself say aloud.

Oh?" Esme said, surprised at the comment. "How so?"

Naruto shrugged, looking down at his hands. "Its just not very often that you see a Half with both of their parents alive."

Realization dawned on Esme what the blond was insinuating and placed a gentle hand on his shoulder. She didn't say anything, just showed she understood.

Just then, Carlisle made his way to the kitchen and placed a kiss on Esme's cheek. "Naruto, would you come with me?" he asked, politely.

"Sure."

Carlisle led the young blond through the house to what looked to be a study. On the walls were several degrees the older man had received throughout his lifetime. Already in the room were the two male vamps he saw yesterday, after running out of the woods. They both nodded to him in greeting.

"This is Jasper and Edward," Carlisle introduced. "I just want to ask you a few questions."

Naruto nodded. "That's fine."

"I don't want you to be offended," the coven leader added. "But by the way you arrived, we're all a little on edge." Carlisle then moved behind his mahogany desk and sat down. "Here in Forks rarely anything new happens. Usually if there is a visitor, such as yourself, then more than likely trouble comes along as well. We just want to be prepared. Obviously you're in some type of trouble. We'd be glad to help you stay safe."

"Oh, you don't have to help at all," Naruto exclaimed. "Once I talk to Sasuke I'll be out of here."

"Who's Sasuke?" Edward asked, uncomfortable not being able to read the blond's mind.

"My mate," the blond said simply.

The three campires looked at each other before Carlisle spoke. "Naruto, what exactly are you?"

Naruto paused before responding. "My father was a vampire. My mother was a shape-shifter; she was a fox."

"Wait, there are different types of shape-shifters? I thought there were only wolves," Edward asked, as Jasper silently listened, taking in the information.

"Well," Naruto looked down, "seeing a shape-shifter that's not a wolf is pretty rare. I've never met another fox. I only knew about my mother after running into someone that knew her and what she was."

"So what does that make you?" Jasper asked, finally speaking up.

"I...I don't know. I'm human, vampire and fox; a combination. I don't know what to call it. I just live with it."

Carlisle seemed satisfied with the answer, having a better understanding of why Edward couldn't read his mind and Alice's visions were only snapshots.

"So, what were you running from?" Carlisle asked.

"The Akatsuki," was the simple response.

"The Akatsuki? " they all murmured at different times.

Naruto gave a look of disbelief. "You don't know about the Akatsuki?"

"I'm afraid I've never even heard of them. They're a group?"

"They are the rulers of the supernatural world," Naruto explained, still shocked by their ignorance. "They are the lawmakers."

Jasper then stood up and studdied the blond's face. "So are you a criminal?"

"No!" He nearly shouted, standing as well. "I didn't break any laws. They're leader is corrupt! I was kidnapped and held hostage for three years. I was tortured! I was running because I had escaped and didn't know if they knew yet." By now, Naruto's eyes were on the brink of tears and his hands were shaking. "I don't want to be a burden, I swear. Please, just let me stay until I talk to my mate."

Edward's eye seemed to narrow. "And what if he never picks up or calls back?"

Naruto understood, somewhat, what the vampire meant. Three years separated from someone was a significant amount of time. Anything could have changed. But Naruto only smiled at the thought.

Sasuke never changed.

"Then he'll show up at your front door."

X~X

The days turned to weeks, and Naruto spent hours everyday by the phone, calling abd waiting. Overall, he was a patient person, but three years was too long. He shifted his feet, then hopped up onto the counter of the kitchen.

He already called about twenty times today. Now he was just waiting. But it was slowly driving him insane.

Sasuke couldn't have died.

Before his thoughts could wonder any further, Reneesme walked into the kitchen. She opened the fridge and pulled out a pack of blood and put a straw in it, drinking it like a CapriSun. She looked at Naruto with her big brown eyes before opening the fridge again and pulling out another pack of blood.

She handed it to him.

Naruto didn't argue and took the pack, suddenly craving blood. He hadn't had any in a while, as hunting was a luxury he could hardly afford this past century. ,Reneesme hopped up on the counter next to him and said nothing. They both silently drank away.

The little girl had done this many times. Seeked him out and just staying glued to his side before her mother cane to get her. Bella didn't trust him with her child, but Naruto didn't let it bother him.

Besides, Reneesme only hung around him because she had never actually met another half human. It was only natural that she was felt a connection with him.

Before long a set of footsteps approached the kitchen. Naruto already knew who it was and didnt bother getting up. Bella rounded the corner and entered the kitchen. She eyed the blond, giving him a nervous look before addressing her daughter.

"Jacob is here," she said, watching Reneesme climb down from the counter.

Naruto waved to the little girl, who waved back. Bella pretended like she didn't notice. Naruto sighed. He needed something else to do.

Getting down from the counter he made his way through the house, eventually coming across an empty living room. Deciding this would do, he plopped down on the couch and flicked through the channels.

X~X

Bella worried her bottom lip as she watched Jacob play with Reneesme. He was dangerous, she could tell. He was suspicious and his very presence put her on edge. Edward agreed, but only because he could read his mind, despite not being able to read her mind either.

"What's wrong with you?" Jacob asked. He then sniffed the air. "And what is that smell?"

"We have a visitor for a while," she said. " I don't trust him."

Jacob nodded, not really paying attention. He was still breathing in the scent. Reneesme pulled on his arm, trying to get him to come play with her.

"Whoever it is, their scent is addictive. Its like they're putting out some sort of pheromone."

"Pheromone?" Bella said wrinkling her nose.

"Yeah," Jacob said as he began making his way into the house. He followed the scent into the living room, seeing a blond teen watching the news.

"Wow," was all he said, takingvin the bright blond hair and piercing blue eyes, and petite frame.

Naruto noticed the wolf come in and instantly knew what was wrong. He scolded himself for not checking the surrounding area. Now the wolf was picking up his scent which was loaded with pheromones.

The wolf approached him slowly, Naruto standing and backing away from him. "Hey," he said, tryin to get the wolf to snap out of it, "give me some space, okay?"

Jacob was so confused at his body's behavior. "What is that smell? Why do you smell this way?"

Naruto wanted to curse. It was the fox in him, and he was in the very early stages of heat. Before he could say anything Bella and Reneesme came into the living room, along with Edward.

"Jacob, what are you doing?" he asked loudly, reading the predatorial thoughts in his head. Jacob seemed to snap out of it just a little, but went right back to approaching the blond.

"I-I have a mate," was all Naruto had to say to get Jacob to stop.

His body was still hesitant to stop but his mind was able to focus on what was going on. He felt himself flush with embarrassment. He turned to the vampires in the room.

"I think I should go...," he said before walking out the house and into the woods. He needed to think.

Bella turned her attention to the blond, eyes furious. "What the hell was that?"

"Calm down. It wasn't his fault."

"But it was because of him, Edward," she huffed, frustrated. "He needs to leave. He's only going to cause more problems for the rest of us."

Naruto didn't respond. He just silently made his way back to the kitchen phone and dialed the familiar number.

He expected to hear the same robotic female voice, telling him to leave a voicemail. He didn't expect anyone to answer, or the message he'd receive.

"Two days," a velvet baritone spoke, before hanging up.

Naruto could only grin. Sasuke never changed.
