Hello! Wow, I was actually very surprised with the feedback. I was positive that this would become like my story Dissection (please read it. T.T), lost in the recesses of FFN. I guess vampires do sell…
And I suppose I always feel negative toward a lot of my stories, but I usually end up wrong (with the exception of Dissection, in which I was completely right.).
Okay! Enough of my rambling! On with it!
Disclaimer: Would I love to own Naruto? Yes. Would I love to have plushies of every Akatsuki member? Yes. Do I have any of those things? No. T.T

Eternity in a Wooden Case
Chapter 2
-o0-
Madara awoke at dusk. In his room, there were many clocks that would chime, awaking their owner from the deep slumber of a vampire.
Of course, he had expected Sakura would be unwilling to associate with him. He had forcefully separated her from her former life, but this was bordering on ridiculous.
"Now, Sakura-chan, you must eat," Madara chided.
"No," she deadpanned.
"Why not?" he raised an eyebrow.
"I'm not hungry."
"But I am," he smiled deviously.
"Then go ahead and kill me," Sakura remarked listlessly. "I may as well be dead anyway."
"Sakura," Madara stood from his place at the head of the table and was at her side in less than a second, "don't try me."
"Why should I care how annoyed you are! I'm basically dead and I have no reason to-" she yelled.
He grabbed her arm roughly and pulled her to her feet. "Live? Is that it? I didn't bring you here to live."
"Then fucking kill me already!" she spat.
"I didn't bring you here to live, but neither did I bring you here to die," he said calmly as he stared at her furious expression.
"Then what do you want!" Sakura screamed, wrenching her arm from his grip.
"In all due time." Madara chuckled, "In due time." He began to walk away, intending to get some much-needed work done.
"Fuck you!" she whispered as he left the room, causing the vampire to pause briefly before continuing to walk away.
Sakura sat back down at the table, eating sparingly from the full plate of food set before her.

Shizune cleared the two plates from the table. Her days of glory as the Godaime Hokage's assistant were over, and now she was reduced to servitude as her master was.
In truth, Shizune pitied Sakura. Although Shizune was not exactly happy with her new position in life, Master Madara had never actually abused a human servant thus far. Sakura didn't seem to understand her place in the dreary Hokage tower and if she did, she was resisting with all her might. Shizune severely doubted Sakura would ever conform to the Masters expectations for her.
"Sakura-chan, you shouldn't try to make Master Madara angry," Shizune sighed as she led the girl back to her room.
"He's destroyed my life, Tsunade's, and yours! Why should any of us care if he's angry?" Sakura asked bitterly.
"Well, in all the time that he's been here, I've never once seen him strike a servant. Despite what you or Tsunade thinks, I believe that he is actually very kind," Shizune smiled.
"Bullshit," the pink-haired girl rolled her eyes.
"He is! Once, he created a cute, orange mask and entertained a crying servant child with a persona named Tobi! It was the cutest thing I've ever seen," Shizune smiled at the memory.
"Oh yes, a vampire entertaining a child, how adorable," she retaliated sarcastically.
"Sakura-chan! Give him a chance!" Shizune cried, "You can't judge him for what he is! It's not like he asked to become a vampire!"
"Whatever. Goodnight, Shizune-san." Sakura opened her door and slipped inside, slamming it behind her.

Madara lounged in his chair. His paperwork was already completed and he reflected on the pink-haired beauty.
What exactly had driven him to isolate her from all men beside himself? Why had he gone so drastically out of his way to entertain her tonight? What could he do to make her understand what him plan was? "In due time," Madara repeated to himself.
However, the most important question he had yet to ask himself was:
What would he do when the due time came?

Finally! It's done!
This has been written down in a notebook for a month!
So, first I'd like to apologize to those wonderful and lovely reviewers who asked me to hurry my ass up! (I'm summarizing. XP)
Next…I would like to advertise a fanfiction that I helped collaborate on.
I'm not particularly fond of NaruHina myself…but I need to promote this!
Both Bloody Diamond and myself are rather disappointed with the lack of attention it's received.
It's called, "NaruHina Wedding"
(Don't worry, I've already expressed my opinion on the title…but Bloody Diamond, that's probably why it hasn't gotten any attention!)
I edited it and wrote half, so Sakura does have a pairing, of course.
Anyway, It's great.
Please…

It only has two reviews the last time I checked and this offense can only go so far!
Please take pity on a fellow author…T.T
We'd appreciate it so much…

Onward!
If you like this story, I can promise you that my others are just as good, if not better!
Thank you for reading!

P.S. Bloody Diamond, you owe me. I don't like to beg.
