In A Demon's Possession

Chapter 2

The cool night air brushed against the many trees that was slowly changing colours due to the changing seasons. The sounds of nature had gone eerily quiet, Shikamaru Nara sighed knowing that their presence wouldn't be hidden for too long. He stretched out his shadows as he watched them slowly envelop the surroundings, covering them in darkness.

Shikamaru had finally managed to locate where the two remaining humans were. The other was nowhere near and he presumed with his high intellect, that the third had sacrificed himself for the two that remained on the run. Signaling Tenten, they both sped up managing to gain up on them quicker than anticipated considering they was both on horseback.

But as Shikamaru glanced at the grey horse, he could see it was near exhaustion and was slowing down tremendously. The two humans were on the one horse, one seemed to be sleeping the other was fully awake and by the looks of things, knew that they were being followed.

Bringing the horse to a complete stand still Neji glanced behind him his eyes narrowed as he picked up on two presences up within the trees not too far away. Hinata began to stir within his arms as he chanced a glance back down at her seeing her eyes beginning to flutter open.

"Hinata-sama...you must get ready to make a run for it" Neji whispered.

Hinata opened her eyes, immediately remembering everything that had took place from her home being overrun, her father being killed and then her guardian Ko sacrificing himself to let them escape made her heart break into tiny pieces. Tears flowed from her pale lilac eyes, falling down her pale cheeks and on to the arms holding her tightly against him. Neji felt each drop of her tears fall against the sleeve of his arm, he hated seeing his cousin so distraught and knew he hadn't the luxury to comfort her and let out his own grievances.

"Get a hold of yourself Hinata-sama...We are not safe and we are currently situated within demon lands. You may have to run and find somewhere safe. Try to keep yourself hidden especially now that you are the princess of our clan." Neji silently continued

"I-I can't lose you too nii-san!" Hinata whimpered softly tears continuously falling

"You must survive Hinata...I will try to find you but you must find a human settlement that will take you in."

"B-But..."

"Please Hinata-sama do as I ask" Neji stated firmly.

Hinata flinched at his whispered tone, feeling the urgency within it and nodded silently knowing she couldn't argue with him any further. She felt him sigh holding her closer to him her heart clenched even more at the thought of going on without him and alone.

"I will keep them busy...remain on the horse and use it to escape. With just you riding him, as you are lighter than myself, you should hopefully be able to outrun our pursuers." Neji ordered above a whisper to her ears.

"H-Hai" Hinata answered

Neji sighed not wanting to leave his cousin to herself but he had no choice. It was just them in unknown lands that were ruled by demons some of them were powerful demon lords and ladies. They were considered 'The Nine Great Demons' all of them powerful. The strongest of them all was the demon Lord Kyubi of the nine tailed Fox.

Neji had heard many stories of various demons and knew that humans like himself were no match for them. Even the Hyuga clan knew they was no match for the demon race but made sure not to anger them and gain their wrath. They kept to themselves throughout the years making sure they never angered the demon clans that were allied with him. He remembered his uncle had told him that the demons had fought a war against one another and it had divided the many demon clans against one another.

Neji knew that the losses were great and that some humans were also involved in the war. His uncle had confided that they had been asked to enter the war but had decided against it, they did however send aide such as supplies of medicine, food and water to their closest demon neighbors in fear of angering them further. The Hyuga clan just wanted to live peacefully within their village but now nothing remained. It was now destroyed by the very demons themselves.

"Get ready for my signal and don't you dare stop or look back" Neji commanded as he removed himself from the horse making sure Hinata held the reigns tightly in her hands.

oOoOo

Shikamaru glanced over at Tenten who had her eyes locked on the human who was now standing facing their direction. Shikamaru sighed seeing the familiar excitement course through her features and knew that the Hyuga held eyes that was almost akin to the Uchiha clan's own. From what he had gathered they had the 'All seeing eyes' that could see through walls and see chakra through someone's body.

Shikamaru knew by the serious look in the man's eye that he was completely aware that they were present and could feel his eyes on them.

"He's mine Shika" Tenten purred smiling devilishly at him which made him raise his eyebrow at her.

Tenten was different from the rest of them, she was a renowned 'Demon huntress' a carrier of many magnificent weapons that she had at her disposal. One flick from her wrists would produce scroll after scroll that would produce many different arrays of weapons of various shapes and sizes. Her calm demeanor put anyone on edge that had to face her. She felt no fear and took pleasure in battle.

The Demon huntress, Tenten, was the only human his leader valued and listened too, and Tenten was most loyal to him and would protect him with her own life if need be. Shikamaru nodded his head in agreement deciding to hold back within his shadows watching the human on the horse that still had his back to him.

Shikamaru was a shadow demon which was typical of his clan, his father died in the last demon wars as did many of his clan. Naruto took him in along with others. They were all family and protected one another and their lands from invaders.

Tenten jumped down to the ground a few feet away from the man that watched her intently, his long brown hair and handsome face intrigued her, especially those pale silver eyes that contained no pupil. Neji watched as a figure dropped from the trees, his eyes took in the form seeing clearly it was a woman in a form fitting outfit that showed each curve she possessed. He was stunned slightly at how beautiful she looked but knew he had to be very wary of this woman she may be beautiful but she also looked deadly.

"Surrender now or be taken by force Hyuga" Tenten called out

"Never...I would rather die than be taken to your master of a snake!" Neji hissed feeling his fists clench tightly readying himself for the fight of his life.

Tenten began to smirk as her chakra flared letting him know she was no push over even if she was still a human. Neji still had his bloodline activated seeing her power flare up making him shocked, deep down knowing she would be a very tough opponent to fight against, even if by his own eyes that she was in fact a human. Neji had to admit he was very surprised he had thought her at first glance to be a demon. His eyes briefly took in the other figure a male and definitely not human.

His dark hair was long and put up into a high ponytail it reminded him of a pineapple fruit. His dark eyes were watching Neji's every movement. He had a tattoo on the side if his face mostly in black signs, he stood staring but looked lazy as if he couldn't care less. He had a black form fitting shirt under a long white shirt fully open along with black trousers that came to just below his knees. His ears both had ear piercings.

Neji looked back at the female and she was wearing a black body suit with brown amulets upon each arm that reached below her elbows. On her feet were long brown open toe boots that came to below her knees. Her dark brown hair tied neatly in buns on either side of her head.

Her eyes matched the colour of her hair and her lips was the colour of deep red, he could feel her excitement radiate from her causing him to swallow knowing that it would be a tough fight up ahead. The woman was indeed beautiful and radiated confidence and love of battle that intrigued Neji further, but he knew he had to win this no matter what. He couldn't leave his cousin alone in this world at the mercy of the demons around them.

Shikamaru remained silent his eyes glancing to the impending fight between the two and the other human mounted on the horse that had not moved since Tenten appeared. Suddenly the man quickly did something and he watched as the horse began to gallop away carrying the other human, escaping from the scene.

"Troublesome" He sighed out deciding he had work to do after all.

"Shika...Get your lazy Demon ass moving. I will handle this one, now get going" Tenten shouted

Neji watched as something akin to shadows disappeared knowing now he couldn't do anything to help and prayed to every deity that his dear cousin would be able to escape and better yet, survive this madness they had both found themselves in.

"Are you ready to fight Hy~u~ga?" Tenten purred causing Neji to regain his senses ready to fight.

"Don't mock me" Neji warned, getting ready for whatever was coming his way.

A sly smile graced her red lips as she twirled around like a dancer in perfect formation. Her arms raised above her head as she spun with speed and precision. Neji could only watch, transfixed by the beautiful female, feeling his cheeks grow warm at the sight. Her body moved very suggestively, in a way that seemed to want to hypnotize him that he bit his lip so that he could break from the bewitching spell her body seemed to seduce him with.

A few puffs of smoke surrounded her showing two long scrolls that she held in both her hands with flick of her wrists the scrolls unraveled, revealing weapons that looked long and very sharp in both hands. The blades glistened through the darkness, each had a distinctive curve with delicate and intriguing patterns upon them.

"May I know your name Hyuga?" Tenten asked politely.

Neji raised an eyebrow and decided he also wanted to know her name.

"As long as you will permit me your name also? Hyuga Neji is my name" Neji answered calmly.

Tenten nodded her smile grew as she spoke to inform him who she was.

"I am 'Demon Huntress Tenten'" She answered.

Neji gasped hearing her answer, he had heard about her from many talks from the villagers and the rare visits from visitors who had safely travelled to their village on rare occasions. He now knew that this fight wouldn't be easy as he predicted. However, he also knew he had no choice but to fight.

oOoOo

Naruto had arrived back at his home. It was a large building, more like a fortress surrounded by the large dense forests. He had entered his throne room and was greeted by those that stood beside him in the conflict of war and those that had come to him for sanctuary. Never had Naruto turned someone of his kind away even letting Tenten to remain within his kingdom.

Naruto sighed as he sat down in his throne looking over the large hall where members of his growing family stood, waiting for any orders or information. Sasuke and Sakura stood to one side Kakashi stood on the other as their blonde Lord looked around the room noticing immediately that two of his subjects were not present. His blue eyes flickered red expecting to see both Shikamaru and Tenten with two human prisoners ready to be interrogated.

Naruto sighed his frustration as he glanced at Sasuke who was conveniently now leaning lazily against a wall.

"They should be back by now." Naruto growled out.

No one answered as Naruto had his hands clenched into fists. Patience was not one of his best traits as a leader. Naruto immediately stood up from his throne descending the few steps as his friends and comrades watched awaiting instructions.

"Sasuke you're with me, Sakura remain here with Ino and have the sick bay ready in case its needed. Kakashi I need you to take Shino, Kiba, Sai and Choji to patrol our lands and keep me informed in case we have any further unwelcomed visitors courtesy of the bastard snake"

Everyone nodded as they went off to do their given commands as Naruto headed outside with Sasuke following close behind him. Naruto closed his eyes as he let his power consume him pin pointing where his two subjects were.

"Found her" Naruto announced grabbing hold of Sasuke's arm he teleported them away in a flash of red and yellow light.

oOoOo

Neji was feeling exhaustion setting in as he took notice of the vast array of weapons lying around where he stood. His clans 'Rotation' that he had just mastered had managed to protect him from the vast flurry of sharp objects that were deadly accurate and precise against him. They had been fighting each other for a good while seeing the destruction their fight was leaving in their wake.

Tenten had to admit that each of her array of weapons that she had used against him were rebounded back as a vortex of blue chakra enveloped him like a spinning blue tornado of wind that managed to shield him from her weapons. Hand to hand combat had also been used and she herself was impressed by the handsome man at being able to keep up with her speed and power she was no push over and the male Hyuga had found that out all too quickly, much to his own surprise.

"You...Are...quite...Formidable" Neji panted out.

The brunette stood slightly panting herself at the slight praise of her skills and had to admit this Hyuga was formidable as well as handsome. But she had played with the Hyuga long enough and decided that this little battle of theirs should end. Tenten licked her plump red lips carefully sizing up the male Hyuga as she finally decided that he would be hers.

Before Neji could even blink he found her no longer in front of him but behind him pressing a sharp weapon to his neck as her breath tickled against his skin.

"Surrender Hyuga Neji...You are now mine"

Neji felt his heart rate quicken as his body shivered from her own body that was closely touching his. Neji knew if he died now he couldn't find Hinata later and relented as he felt darkness surround him. Tenten had rendered him unconscious as soon as he nodded in surrender.

oOoOo

A flash of red and yellow appeared in front of her as Naruto as well as Sasuke stood before her seeing the array of weapons and the damage done to the woodland around them. Sasuke took a step forward seeing the beautiful demon Huntress beside the unconscious male.

"I see you wanted to play with him Tenny" Sasuke stated with a smirk

"Yes, I did and I must say that he was very interesting Sasuke-kun" Tenten purred in delight as the raven rolled his eyes.

"My Lord, seeing as I won against him in combat I ask for your permission if I can have him as my pet?" Tenten continued bowing before the blonde as Sasuke felt his eyes widen in surprise.

"I don't see why not... you have been a loyal servant to me 'Tenten Demon Huntress of the Land of Fire' You may have this one as a pet if you so wish, but he still needs to be interrogated by me." Naruto answered.

Tenten bowed as she agreed to her Lord's order. She couldn't wait to take the Hyuga male back to her lair and have further fun with him she was growing quite wet in between her legs at just the very thought of riding him in the privacy of her room she was fed up of being one of the few without having some sort of sexual release.

"You look flushed, Tenny. Was he that good?" Sasuke remarked seeing lust in her dark brown eyes.

"Hmmm he was everything I thought he would be and more. Besides, I can't wait to sample him further. I'm fed up of hearing you and Sakura fucking every night." Tenten remarked with a smirk.

Sasuke grinned slightly seeing the beautiful demon huntress growing aroused and he felt slightly jealous. He was always wondering what the female temptress would be like beneath the sheets but he knew Sakura would kill him if he tried to find out.

"Where is Shikamaru and the other human?" Naruto ordered rolling his eyes at the other two.

"Shikamaru chased after the other on horseback, my Lord" Tenten replied.

"Sasuke, accompany Tenten back to base with the prisoner. I've located Shikamaru. I will see you back there so I leave you in charge in my absence." Naruto ordered

Both Sasuke and Tenten bowed watching as a flash of yellow and red occurred where their Lord and leader once stood.

"Come on let's get back I bet you can't wait, huh" Sasuke continued

Tenten smirked as she looked down upon the sleeping Hyuga male lying before her on the ground licking her lips once again in hunger and most of all lust.

"No, I can't Sasuke-kun...I can't wait until tonight" Tenten answered with a red blush on her cheeks with a grinning Sasuke watching on intently.

oOoOo

Shikamaru sighed mainly in boredom, he was easily able to keep up with the feeble attempt at escape, the horse was seriously exhausted and the small looking male human upon it seemed to grow anxious as the horse was slowing down from the gallop. The shadow demon remained well within the trees watching his intended target closely.

He briefly wondered how Tenten was doing against the other human but seeing how excited she was he knew he had nothing to worry about. His senses picked up a surge of power as a red and yellow light flashed beside him showing his leader in all his glory beside him.

"Shikamaru what is taking you so long?" The blonde questioned.

"The target is down there my Lord the horse is fully exhausted"

"Let's just watch briefly for now" Naruto quietly ordered

Both demons stayed hidden within the trees both their presences contained, to not arouse the human's suspicions. They had both continued to watch as the horse came to a stop and the human on top became panicked a slight toothy grin appeared on Naruto's face. He really did enjoy hunting his prey.

oOoOo

Hinata was scared out of her mind as she had the feeling she was being watched. She glanced at the horse seeing it was fully exhausted and panting heavily, she wondered briefly how far they had travelled, and she knew just by looking at the horse she couldn't get him to continue onwards.

She was growing increasingly worried about Neji and knew she couldn't go back to him as she finally got off the horse. Still in her disguise she took what she could from the horse and decided to continue onwards on foot. Naruto watched everything as he decided that they would make their appearance known. Signaling to Shikamaru they both jumped down to the ground startling Hinata as she turned to face them.

Hinata was petrified as she took in both males that was stood a few feet from her. The horse had felt their presence and managed to gallop away in fright leaving her stranded at their very mercy. Naruto looked the human over intently, but there was something different about this human that seemed to call on his demon blood. The scent the human gave out smelt sweet and flowery much to his confusion, but his demon side certainly reacted to this trembling human in front of him.

"Surrender" He shouted out loudly in warning.

Hinata trembled she knew that her cousin had told her to escape and she had no choice but to follow her cousin's last orders she could not be captured at any cost. She was the princess of her clan although under disguise as a male branch servant she couldn't be discovered.

Dropping what she had on her person she made a run for it much to the surprise of both Shikamaru and Naruto who let out a primal growl within him, surprising the shadow demon beside him.

"Shikamaru grab the stuff and head back to base I will get him" Naruto ordered, as he gave chase, leaving Shikamaru to look on. Shikamaru nodded with a sigh as he went to retrieve the bags also cursing the horse that had disappeared knowing he had to carry the bags strewn across the floor.

"What a drag this turned out to be" Shikamaru groaned out grabbing items and placing them into his shadows to take back with him.

oOoOo

Hinata was frantic, her heart pounded within her. She ran as fast as she could, hoping that she would be able to get away from those that were pursuing her. Never in her life had she felt so alone and afraid in the space of a few hours. She was now without her beloved family, her father and her guardian, Ko, both gave their life for her and Neji to escape. Now Neji had done the same, fighting them for her to escape and find safety.

The tears were gathering in her eyes as she fought viciously for them not to fail. All her life she had been looked down upon with disappointment. Even Neji had looked upon her as a disgrace up until only recently after the true events of her uncle's death was revealed. Her father, although still cold towards her, had managed to rekindle her and Neji's relationship to how it was when they were children. Hinata saw Neji as her elder brother and always had, even in the times when his eyes looked upon her with so much hate.

The trees seemed to move and make rustling noises all around her that played with her already frantic nerves, her legs were feeling tired and her lungs screamed at her to rest and take breathes of air. Hinata found her pace slowing. Her robes that were no longer clean and pristine but dirty and ragged from the branches, had been torn but still clung upon her clothes as she fought her way through.

Feeling herself slow down she decided to take a glance behind her and to her surprise saw that she wasn't being followed as she finally slowed down, panting breathlessly. However, she failed to notice that her pursuer was directly behind her.

"I told you to surrender" Naruto stated calmly

Hinata jumped and screamed as she saw the blonde in front of her, she fell on her backside staring at him with wide eyes, petrified with fear. Naruto was however stunned speechless seeing the small human more closely. His eyes took in the wide eyes of the human trembling before him on the ground, the colour of pale lilac they looked beautiful as well as their face was absolutely breathtaking to him.

The blonde demon Lord shook his head of those thoughts, knowing that this was a male human. But somehow his demon half was calling out to him. Why was his demon side reacting? Hinata couldn't take it as she felt her head spin before passed out from the mixture of fear and exhaustion.

Naruto grinned as he walked over and picked the human up in his arms, his senses were immediately overwhelmed with the sweet smell of the human's scent that consumed his senses fully as he let out a groan.

'Shit...What the hell!?' Naruto thought as he transported them back to his domain.

oOoOo

The blonde had arrived holding his human prisoner who was very light, his body was tingling all over which confused him deeply. Sasuke along with Tenten was waiting as well as a yawning Shikamaru who had placed the bags against the wall. The other human male was knelt on the floor hands bound as his head was low looking at the floor.

"Sasuke take this one" Naruto ordered.

Sasuke walked towards him, taking the small figure into his arms his eyes widened slightly as he activated his bloodline scanning the human making Naruto eye him curiously. Naruto gathered his attentions on the male who was knelt on the floor.

"You are now my prisoner human...You trespassed into my lands and I want to know why?" Naruto ordered

Neji stiffened as he glanced at the male who spoke and his eyes widened as he saw his cousin in the arms of the dark-haired demon male beside him. His heart rate increased in worry as he felt the Sharp blade of a kunai pressed against his neck.

"My Lord asked you a question Neji Hyuga...It would be in your best interest to answer him and answer him truthfully" The woman he fought spoke in a warning tone.

"Neji...Hyuga...Neji...So you're the nephew huh?" Sasuke answered knowing certain members of the supposed Hyuga clan.

Naruto looked at Sasuke who was still holding the other human that Naruto couldn't help but be drawn to. Clutching his hands into fists he tried to regain his senses as he moved his eyes to the man still knelt on the floor.

"I asked you a question, human!" Naruto shouted

Neji flinched as he knew he needed to appeal to the demons in the room and quickly. He couldn't risk death to himself or his cousin.

"My name is Neji Hyuga I am the nephew of Hiashi Hyuga. Our village has fallen to the demon snake Orochimaru. My uncle Hiashi asked me to escape so myself and two other members of my family managed to get out through a secret escape route where horses and provisions were on standby. We were heading for wind country to one of the human villages that we knew was closest. However, we were being chased by pursuers and had entered your land by mistake." Neji answered.

"Hmm...Your other member was found by us when we confronted Orochimaru's lackeys. They included Kabuto his obsessed servant. Your colleague had already died. He was tortured." Sakura answered as she had stepped into the room.

"Sakura...take her to sick bay" Sasuke stated, loud enough for everyone to hear.

"Wait...What did you just say?" Naruto asked, looking at Sasuke

"I asked Sakura to take this girl to the infirmary" Sasuke replied with his eyebrow raised

"You're holding information so I suggest you tell me everything before I kill you where you stand" Naruto growled leaking killing intent that had Neji choking in fear.

Neji was sweating. They had now discovered Hinata was a female, and soon they would discover she was in fact the princess of their clan and there was nothing Neji could do but tell the truth and hope they would both be allowed to survive.
