Hey there Unexistant here new update! Ahaha. So let's see how this'll turn out, wish me luck. Oh! And thanks to everyone who reviewed! I love the support this story is getting ^3^

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto and if I did, Sasuke would perish, and life in the Naruto land would be sooo much easier.

Sakura woke up with a start, she hadn't the idea where she could've ended up, everything seemed a blur of memories, and she sat up and stretched her arms. She noticed a few peculiar things, besides the fact that she was sleeping on the floor, that wasn't even the worst part, she lay in a heap of blankets, oh but not alone, there was someone sprawled across her body. She stared blankly until she finally realized who the strange boy was.

'Oh that's right….' She blushed as the memory came alive in her mind. She had forgotten all about him, the brother of the one she was sent to kill. She arose and made her way to the bathroom. Sakura gathered water in the palms of her hands and splashed it onto her face; she glanced at herself in the mirror. She closely examined that she had extremely pale skin, unblemished. She gazed at her appearance; she noticed her hair was tangled, reaching her mid back she sighed sullenly.

'Sometimes being a vampire can really be a pain in the ass, pfft and those stupid human assumptions, oh! I'm a vampire so I have to be able to turn into a bat! I could never see my own reflection! Oh the sunlight, give me a break. Vampires are just the same as humans, only difference is…we're a bit enhanced...Oh and we suck blood, but other than that I think we're really close otherwise, but then again there is that weakness of ours.'

"Oh, wow, you appear in the mirror." Sakura nearly jumped out of her skin.

"You startled me!" Sakura sighed as she just recalled his comment.

"Come on, didn't you sense me or something? You're a vampire."

Sakura really wanted to bash his head into a wall right now. "You know there's a lot you need to know about vampires, first of all vampires are basically humans."

Sasuke chuckled, "yeah, humans just love to suck blood and run at the speed of light."

Sakura growled in return "Stop admonishing us! Those are only two things that make us different, I can appear in photos, I can still die, I can't turn into a bat, and I can feel too!"

Sasuke stared at Sakura blankly, "I'm sorry, I hadn't realized that you were feeling that way."

Sakura sighed and brushed her hair aside, "And why are you naked?"

Sasuke blushed, "I-I'm not n-naked! I just don't have a shirt on!"

Sakura squeezed past him to the door, "Well, get dressed, I got you some clothes, so get a move on, we have to get out of here, when I went to the town to get your clothes I saw a wanted poster, there wasn't a picture, but it seems they were able to put up a description."

Sasuke was stunned "What price did they say?" he murmured quietly.

"Does it matter? Either way they're after me." Sakura shut the bathroom door and headed her way outside to scout the perimeter.

Sasuke sighed as he combed his hair through with his fingers. 'This is a disaster, if that wanted poster came from my brother, we'll be screwed.' Sasuke grasped the smooth fabric in his hands, 'how did she know my-?' Sasuke shook his head of the thoughts; he put the jacket on and slipped on the warm pair of pants.

Things didn't seem to be going so well, as Sakura jumped from tree to tree surrounding the small hut they inhabited, she was getting a bad feeling; it crept along her skin and ran along the juncture of her neck. She shivered as she tried to ignore her instinct, which is something a vampire should never do. She had to stop dillydallying, this boy was getting her to make way too many mistakes; she had to get serious now. Sakura made sure to cover their tracks as she saw the boy step outside of the cabin, she rushed over.

"Hey, we need to get going, are you ready?"

Sasuke turned slightly annoyed, "could you please stop feeling on edge like that? It's driving me crazy!"

Sakura's thin eyebrows furrowed, knowing she was keen on hiding her emotions she was fairly surprised.

Sasuke retorted "I don't know what you're so surprised about but for some reason I could definitely feel it."

Sakura swiftly approached him grabbing his chin and turning it up slightly peering into his eyes, when she instantly saw it. Her bite marks, 'of course! This bumbling buffoon couldn't have possibly seen through her shield'

Sasuke glared, "hey!"

"Well, if it's only that much, I as your master should be able to limit what you hear."

Sasuke's face started to heat up as he realized just how close she was in proximity.

Sakura smirked, "well let's get moving."

Sakura grabbed Sasuke's arm and started to use vampiric speed. Sasuke felt a rush of wind and saw blurs of colors flash past his vision. Sakura stopped abruptly, as she felt her senses thrum. She looked around at the empty space before her.

"What's go-?"

She covered Sasuke's mouth with the palm of her hand. She looked around once more. She led Sasuke to a small brush of greenery, and made sure he'd stay low, she slowly stepped out. She dashed with incredible speed into the tall trees. She dashed quickly until she felt a hard shove come from nowhere. She yelped as she headed straight for the ground, she turned her body so she'd land straight on her feet as she braced herself for the impact. When she felt someone catch her, she looked up to see a pale, tall man, with short black hair reaching to the nape of his neck. She gaped and touched his face.

*cough cough*

Sakura looked over to see Sasuke who was standing, had just cleared his throat. Sakura jumped as she scrambled out of Sai's arms. Sakura stood up straight and dusted her clothes off, to make sure no one noticed how flustered she was. Unfortunately by the look on Sasuke's face and Sai's smirk she guessed that it didn't go unnoticed.

"So, this your little drudge?" Sai gestured to Sasuke. Sasuke reddened instantly, "yeah, so what of it?" reclaimed Sasuke.

"Well, that's funny, somehow I imagined you to be different."

Sakura sighed, "What are you doing here Sai?"

Sai chuckled, "What? I can't just run into my lovely wife?"

Sasuke looked to Sakura aghast. Sakura punched Sai in the arm, to where he skidded at least a good 6 feet. "Stop joking around Sai!"

Sai guffawed "come on! Did you see the look on this kids face! It was priceless!"

Sasuke growled in the back of his throat. Sakura's gaze shifted to Sai as they glow red, "No more games Sai."

"Alright alright, Kakashi and I are on a few errands ourselves, we were curious as to why you hadn't returned in such a long time, so we thought to grab a bite ourselves." Sakura's eyes narrowed at Sai's vulgar use of the way they fed. "We also caught wind of the news flying about of a red head vampire causing trouble, when we figured out they were talking about you." Sai caught a strand of Sakura's hair and kissed it softly, "but of course those imbecile sacs of meat, didn't know that your hair was the most wonderful shade of pink."

Sakura tugged her hair free from Sai, "It can easily be mistaken when it's crusted with blood."

"Ah, but of course." Sai walked towards Sasuke and shifted around him curious. "I wish I knew what you found so fascinating about this creature."

"Sai, stop with your idiotic nonsense."

Sai grinned, and looked up toward the trees, "Why look who's here, it's about time Kakashi."

Kakashi gracefully jumped down from the trees.

"I had been delayed because of a few bandits, or rather amateur vampire hunters, I had led them astray, but I had been drawn into a corner to where I had to use excessive force."

Sai cut in "How many?"

Kakashi gruffly replied, "Maybe 10 or 12, I had to kill a few."

Sakura bowed her head in understanding; sometimes there just wasn't an option in such cases. Casualties were inevitable.

Sasuke glanced over to the new guy who showed up, he was just as pale as the lot of them, and he had silvery grey hair that seemed to defy gravity. It seemed lots of vampires had the most peculiar hair styles, he'd be sure to make a note of that for future references.

Sakura sighed as she walked over to Sasuke, "Well gentlemen, it seems our time has come, we'll be on our way."

Kakashi looked over to Sakura, "I just got here and I don't even get a hello?"

Kakashi was pretty close to her, he was a great mentor, it'd been a while since she last saw him, Sai had really understated the amount of time they last saw each other, but to a vampire, time was different.

"Long time no see, Sensei."

Kakashi smiled as she approached him, he gave her a quick embrace, "oh how you've grown, you should really run into us more often."

Sakura hinted at another smile, "I'm glad to see your okay, even after those run ins with those bandits, thank you."

Kakashi smiled, "no worries, I was trying to see if I could gather more information on where the source of where the description came from. You weren't careful with letting your identity out?"

Sakura thought back to the night before, "well to be honest, no, I was careful that there were no other people around, and those that were, were dazed into thinking nothing happened." Sakura brought her closed fist onto her open palm. "Oh! But there was the time we were escaping; I could smell some vampire hunters after me."

Sai but in. "what do you mean us? You mean to tell me you just met this kid a night ago, and you made him your drudge? You picked him? Why? And weren't you on the hunt yesterday?"

Sai was getting outraged, "Come on Kakashi, back me up here?"

Kakashi drawled in, "He does seem to have a point, Sakura; you've never showed interest in having a drudge in the past."

Sakura groaned, "Do I really have to explain myself? I mean it's hardly something to be concerned about."

Sai sneered, "Please tell me he isn't one of them, if you were on the hunt, did you kill your prey accordingly?"

Sakura started to chew the inside of her cheek, "What are you implying Sai?"

Sai turned his head towards Sasuke, "That this kid better not be your unfinished prey."

Sakura started to chew on her lip, "well rest assured Sai, he isn't, so stop with your interrogation."

Sai pointed to Sakura, "you never answered my questions, did you kill your prey?"

Sakura sighed, "I might as well stop beating around the bush, no, I did not finish off my prey, that's why he's here, we reached a compromise."

Sai's rage reached a new high, "What do you mean a compromise? There is no such thing as a compromise between prey! He was prey in the first place because he was a criminal! You know this Sakura! The only reason we hunt at all is because we're trying to get rid of them! You also know that we only punish repeat offenders!"

Sakura grimaced at Sai's rampage.

Kakashi thought he'd interrupt, "well, all we can do now is just move on, everyone makes mistakes, or rather, maybe you just followed your instincts."

Sai muttered under his breath, 'yeah more like pretty boy over there started crying his balls off'

Sasuke turned to Sai with the most menacing glare he could muster, "He's my brother and he was only trying to support us financially!"

Sai scoffed "Yeah sure that's what it was, knowing he was a criminal, he probably stole everything you guys earned."

Sasuke ran straight at Sai with his fist aimed. Sai grinned as he side stepped Sasuke's punch, Sasuke was about to tumble forward but Sai clutched Sasuke's wrist and twisted until Sasuke was detained. Sai flung Sasuke into a nearby tree, only to be disappointed when Sakura caught him before the impact.

"Must you ruin all the fun?" Sai questioned.

Sakura frowned at him, as she started to slowly approach Sai. Kakashi intervened and held his arm out in front of Sakura.

"What? He started it," mumbled Sai.

"Let's all just calm down, alright? The sun is already setting, Sakura I recommend you to camp out here with us for the night before you continue on your journey," announced Kakashi.

"Why do we have to stay, can't you just travel in the dark Sakura?" wondered Sasuke aloud.

"What impudence! How dare this mere slave, address their master in such a familiar way!" growled Sai.

Kakashi sighed, "Really Sakura, this kid is an embarrassment to you, and could you imagine if another vampire had met you like this? It'd be a complete disgrace on your part," Kakashi solemnly told her.

Sakura sighed, "Well, he's only just been one, it's not like he's had much experience."

Sai crossed his arms defiantly, "That's barely an excuse, he should know, why should he have been taught?"

Kakashi scratched the back of his head, "Well as I've stated before let's set up camp, oh, and the reason she can't just 'travel in the dark' is because it's dangerous, just because she can see in the dark doesn't mean you can, oh and you're a paper weight, you'd drag her down, most of the hunters travel at night because they suspect they can catch more vampires that way, I hope you can put two and two together."

Kakashi jumped to a branch, "I'm going to scout the area, you guys should start camp."

Sakura looked after as Kakashi left them there, "Just like old times."

"Yeah except we didn't have a carry on with us," added Sai.

Sakura looked over at him, "why can't you just leave him alone Sai? What's your problem? You were never like this before."

Sai looked over at Sasuke, "Why don't you make yourself useful and collect some wood?"

Sasuke's brows furrowed in anger, but when Sakura looked over to him he knew he wanted to feel useful instead of standing around doing nothing most of the time.

Sasuke walked from the clearing into the forest of trees. Sai turned back to Sakura, "Listen to me, I worry about you okay? This kid can't protect you, ever since you left to journey on your own, we've worried about you."

Sakura murmured, "I can take care of myself."

"I can't watch you do this to yourself, ever since you left me, I've felt like you rejected me, it's like you never even cared about what I told you that night."

Sakura looked to Sai with sympathy in her eyes, "You know it's forbidden."

Sai glared at Sakura, "Don't talk down to me like that; you know very well that the law isn't enforced."

"But it's there for a reason Sai," Sakura looked at him with pity.

"Stop looking at me like that Sakura! Did you even ponder it? Did you even consider the possibilities? Why did you leave like that? You could've at least given me an answer before you left!"

Sakura bowed her head in guilt. "I know it was a cowardly move, but I didn't want to destroy what we had."

Sai growled low in his throat, "Please, tell me now, give me an answer, do you- what do you feel for me now?"

Sakura stared at Sai with widened eyes, "I-Sai, you can't ask this of me-"

Sai grabbed Sakura and quickly pulled her into a warm embrace, he whispered gently into her ears, he tilted her head back and dragged his lips softly against hers, until all of his feelings were poured into the kiss.

Off in the distance and quiet of the forest a pair of onyx eyes stared in disbelief.

The whispered words echoing in Sakura's ears,

'So, I guess this is Goodbye.'
