(A/N The following chapters after the first few start the action and true story...)
Matsuri POV
Everyone looked at Temari. "What? I'm just asking." Temari said. Naruto smiled. "Master Hiruzen wasn't the only vampire that stayed with M.Y.T.H. back then. Sasakay and I have always fed on animals." He said. "Oh." Temari said. Sasuke smiled slightly. "Your turn, Sakura." He said. Sakura blushed slightly. "Uh… Do I have to? Can't I go last or something?" She asked. "No." I said smiling. She sighed and looked at Sasuke. "Do you wanna sit?" She asked, sliding over. He sat next to her with one leg on the bed and one leg hanging over the edge. Moon curled up next to him and purred. "Aww. He likes you." Sakura said smiling. "So are you gonna tell us?" Naruto asked. "I um… I'm a cat demon." Sakura mumbled.
"Hmm?" Sasuke asked. "I'm a cat demon." Sakura said clearly. "You don't look like a cat demon." Sasuke said. Sakura took off her choker and her demon features appeared. "Whoa! That's so awesome!" Naruto said. Sakura grinned. "I like the ears." Sasuke said smiling. Sakura blushed and her tail twitched slightly from pleasure. "What about you guys?" Naruto asked. "I'm a werewolf." I said. "So are demons and were-animals the same thing?" Sasuke asked. "No. Were-animals look completely human and demons, especially Sakura, are more aggressive." I said. "Hey! I resent that!" Sakura said playfully. "And also were-animals can only change into one animal. A demon doesn't have to have a specific type of animal. Kinda like Sakura, who doesn't have a specific cat and her mom who's specifically a tigress demon." Matsuri explained. "I'm a fairy." Temari said. "Which element?" Naruto asked. "Water." Temari said. "I'm a psychic." Tenten said. "I'm a shapeshifter." Ino said. "And I'm a witch." Hinata said. "A very cute witch." Naruto said smiling. Hinata blushed and smiled. "Ugh. Get a room." Ino said smirking. That only made Hinata's blush deepen. We heard the front door open and close. "Huh? It can't be seven o'clock." Sakura said. "It's only five forty-five." Temari said. "Sakura?!" Her mom said. "I'm up here!" Sakura said. We could hear her come up the stairs and Sasuke stood up just as her mom came in. "Oh. Hello." She said. "Hi." Naruto said smiling. "Hello." Sasuke said. "Mom, this is Sasuke and Naruto Uzuchiha. They're vampires." Sakura said. Her mom's green eyes narrowed slightly behind her light brown bangs as she removed her bracelet. Her features returned to normal and her red M.Y.T.H. aura swirled around her. Naruto and Sasuke tensed. "Wait, Mom. They stayed in M.Y.T.H.. They're harmless." Sakura said. Sasuke raised an eyebrow. "Oh, you know what I meant." Sakura said smiling.
"Oh. Well, it's nice to meet you." Mrs. Mebuki said sweetly. Naruto and Sasuke exchanged confused looks. "Would you like to stay for dinner?" Mrs. Mebuki asked. "Uh…" Sasuke said. "Sure." Naruto said smiling. "Why are you here so early, Mom? You said you wouldn't be home until seven." Sakura said. "Well, we weren't as busy as I thought we would be, so I was able to come home early." Mrs. Mebuki said. "Oh." Sakura said. Mrs. Mebuki smiled. "Would you girls like to stay for dinner too? Sakura wanted to cook tonight." She said. We smiled. "Sure." I said. "Well then… I need to make a trip to the grocery store." Sakura said. She put her choker back on. "Sakura! What happened to your ankle?!" Mrs. Mebuki asked, wide-eyed. "Volleyball accident at school today. It's not really anything major. Hinata, would you mind?" Sakura asked. Hinata placed her hands on Sakura's ankle and they glowed pink. "Thanks." Sakura said smiling. "You're welcome." Hinata said smiling back. Sakura looked at Sasuke. "You mind driving me there?" She asked. "Am I your chauffeur now?" He asked smiling as they left. "Sasakay and Sakura are cute together." Naruto said teasingly. "Sasakay?" Mrs. Mebuki asked.

Sakura POV
Sasakay was driving. "Thank you, Sasakay." I said sweetly. Sasakay only smiled. I looked out the window. "Hey Sasakay?" I asked. "Hmm?" Sasakay asked. "The reason you looked at me the way you did and why you acted all cool and distant, or tried to anyway, is because I look like Isabel right?" I asked. Sasakay sucked on his lip ring. I thought that it was cute. "Yes." He said softly. "So why did you want me to show you around town? Why did you let Naruto go off with Hinata knowing you'd be left alone with me?" I asked. He sucked on his lip ring again. "Well uh… I didn't… want to be away from you. I know that this all sounds weird considering that we just met but… when we touched… that jolt made me feel bonded with you." Sasakay said. The way I was looking at him must have made him embarrassed because he gave me a totally out-of-character sheepish smile. It kinda gave him this cute, boyish look. "Don't feel bad. I do too. To be honest… I had this dream and…" I said. I bit my lip. "What?" Sasakay asked.
"Well… There was this person and they had your eyes. They actually remind me of amethyst stones." I said blushing. Sasakay only smiled. "Hey. Have you always sucked on your lip ring when you think?" I asked. "Hmm. I guess I never noticed before." Sasakay said. I pushed my hair back and Sasakay gripped the steering wheel tighter. I could easily see the muscles in his arms. "What's wrong?" I asked as he stopped at a stop light. "Nothing." Sasakay said, holding the bridge of his nose. "You're lying." I said. "It's just… your scent." Sasakay said. "Why? What's wrong with it?" I asked with my eyes widening. "Nothing. You don't need to panic. It's just… mouthwatering." Sasakay said. I blushed and relaxed. "Oh. I've never been told that I smell mouthwatering." I said. Sasakay started driving again. "What is my scent anyway?" I thought. "Vanilla." Sasakay said. "Hey!" I said. "Oh. Sorry." Sasakay said. He smiled. "I read your thoughts earlier when I asked if you were a M.Y.T.H.-ite. You're very good at playing dumb." He said. "Stop it!" I said. Sasakay chuckled. Soon, Sasakay parked in the Food Lion parking lot. "You know, your mom is very…" Sasakay said. "Scary?" I asked smiling. "Well… I…" Sasakay said. I laughed. "She's protective. Don't worry. If you ever met my dad, he would be the ones that you would have to worry about." I said. I grabbed a cart. "How much do you need?" Sasakay asked. I answered him with a smile. "Why does the word 'M.Y.T.H.-ite' make Naruto laugh?" I asked. "I'm not really sure. Then again, Naruto has never been entirely all there." Sasakay said smiling. "You're mean." I said playfully. I bought flour, chicken, shrimp, rice, four large salmon, and chocolate cake mix. "Wait. Can vampires have allergies?" I asked softly. "No. Whoever came up with that garlic thing was an idiot." Sasakay said. "Hi Sasuke!" A girl's voice said from behind us. "Crap." I said scowling. Sasakay and I turned to see Karin with a bag of apples and a six pack of water. When she saw me her smile faded. "Oh. You're here with her." She said. "And?" I asked. She sighed dramatically. "Oh why do you and Naruto waste your time with Sakura and her weird friends when you can hang out with the popular crowd?" She asked. "Look. I don't know what your problem is but…" I said.
"Sakura." Sasakay said. I looked at him and there was something about his eyes that calmed me down. "Sasuke um… Would you like to do something with me tomorrow night?" Karin asked. I fought a scowl by biting my lip and picking up a bag of chips. "Uh… Okay." Sasuke said uncertainly. "Great! You can come pick me up at around seven." Karin said smiling as she left. "Someone has a date." I said, forcing myself to smile. "Is that what she actually meant?" Sasakay asked. I rolled my eyes playfully. "Did girls not flirt with you before or something?" I asked. "No. Unless you count Isabel, but even then I was oblivious to her flirting. I'm so used to Naruto getting all of the attention. Something about me being scary or something." Sasakay said. "Aw. You're not scary." I said, actually smiling this time. "Do you have everything you need?" Sasakay asked. I nodded. "Are you alright?" Sasakay asked. "Yeah. I'm fine." I said. Sasakay helped me carry the bags to the car. "Are you sure?" He asked. I forced myself to smile. "Mmm-hmm." I said. I made sure to keep my thoughts away from their date in case he decided to read my mind. My guess is that it didn't work because he held my hand and the roses appeared. "You're upset." He said. "No, I'm not." I said. "Yes, you are. I can feel it. Is this about what Karin said about you and your friends?" He asked. "He doesn't know that I'm really upset about the date then." I thought. "Sorta. I don't care that she called me weird but she didn't have to bring the others into it when they're not here." I said. "At least I'm not lying to him." I thought. "You shouldn't let her get under her skin." Sasakay said. "Yeah. You're right." I said. Sasakay and I smiled. When we got to my house we put the groceries on the counter. "You can chill with the others while I cook." I said. "I uh… Alright." Sasakay said. I could swear that I heard a tinge of disappointment in his voice. As Sasakay left, Temari came in. Tears welled up in my eyes and Temari' eyes widened. "Sakura, what's wrong? Are you okay?" She asked. "Sasakay's going on a date with Karin." I said, wiping my eyes. "Gross. Sasuke doesn't even like her. It's all over his face when she's around." Temari said. "I know but…" I said. "No 'buts'. So how are you cooking the salmon?" Temari asked, opening them. "Steamed." I said smiling slightly. Temari was horrible at comforting people sometimes but the attempt was enough to make people feel better. I grabbed lo mien noodles from the cabinet. We made dumplings with chicken and shrimp, chicken lo mien, shrimp lo mien, streamed salmon, and chocolate cake. Ino and I set the table. "Whoa." Naruto said. While we ate, I sat next to Sasakay. "So how long have you boys been in California?" Mom asked. "A few days, maybe." Naruto answered. "Where were you living before?" Tenten asked. "We lived Miami." Sasakay answered. We didn't really talk about anything important for the rest of dinner. Tenten and I put the dishes in the dishwasher. "We should go look up that symbol." Tenten said. "Yeah you're right." I said. We left the kitchen. "We'll be in my room okay, Mom?" I asked. "Alright dear. Did you put all of the dishes in the dishwasher?" Mom asked. "Yes ma'am." I said. We all went upstairs and I shut my door. "We should probably look through the books first. If we can't find it there, then we'll ask my mom or the Elders." I said. I opened the trunk at the end of my bed. It was full of old, brown, leather-bound books. "Where'd you get these?" Naruto asked as I handed him one. "My great-grandma gave them to me a few years ago." I said. Everyone sat around the room looking through the books while Temari looked on the internet. M.Y.T.H. had a secret website. "There are so many categories of information. Somehow, I ended up under M.Y.T.H. aura. Did you know that humans have white aura and other creatures have blue?" Temari asked. When I found the symbol my eyes widened. "Oh… my… God." I said. "Find it?" Matsuri asked. "Sasakay, we're…" I said. "What? What are we?" Sasakay asked. "Sasakay… we're soulmates." I said.

Sasuke Pov
Everyone's eyes widened. "No way." Naruto said. "You and Sakura are soulmates and you're going out on a date with Karin?!" Ino asked. "It's not like I knew." I said. "It says, 'When two soulmates find each other the first form of skin-to-skin contact, such as holding hands, will result in a jolt and a black rose will appear on the dominant hand. Prolonged contact will result in a violet tint. Soulmates are bonded for life. If the two are ever separated by death or termination of the relationship, the remaining or both will be sent into a dejected state of mind.'" Temari said. "Maybe this isn't true. I mean, the books are pretty old." Sakura said. "Sakura… I'll cancel that so-called date if you want me to." I said. "I'm okay with it. Go ahead." Sakura said smiling. I didn't want to try and read her mind. Sakura looked at her clock and it was already ten thirty. "Whoa. We'll see you tomorrow, Saku." Matsuri said. "Bye guys." She said smiling. Everyone left but me. "Sakura." I said. She stood up and looked at me. "Are you sure?" I asked as she removed her choker. I looked deeply into her beautiful, catlike eyes. "Yes. I'm sure." Sakura answered. I moved her hair from her face and rested my hand on her cheek. The roses appeared. "I don't want to make you upset." I said. "Sasakay, if you want to go out with Karin tomorrow night then go ahead. I'm in no position to stop you." Sakura said. "But I don't want to go out with Karin." I thought. I stoked her cheek with my thumb. Her cream colored skin was soft. "Okay." I said. She placed her hand over mine and closed her eyes. "Good night, Sasakay." She said. I kissed her forehead and she blushed.
"Good night." I said. Naruto drove the car home. "I'm such an idiot." I said. "If you're so worried about making her upset, why don't you just cancel the date anyway?" Naruto asked. "Well… When we touched and felt that jolt it was like… I could get a reading on her personality. If I cancel it, she'll think that it's her fault. I don't want her to be any more upset with me than she already is." I said. "Sasakay, she's not mad at you." Naruto said. "Maybe I could do something." I said to myself. "Sasakay… You're not gonna go all crazy over this, are you?" Naruto asked. I wasn't paying attention, since I was already thinking of ways to make this up to Sakura. When we got home, I took a shower after Naruto and went to bed. The next morning, after I got ready, I left for school before Naruto on my dark purple motorcycle… or at least that's what I wanted Naruto to think. I went to Sakura's house and her mom's red Subaru was gone. "Don't tell me that her mom took her to school." I thought as I knocked on the door. Sakura answered the door. She wore a red short-sleeved shirt that said 'Rockstar!' in black glittery letters and black and red Tripp pants. She had her choker on. "Oh. Hey Sasakay." She said sleepily. She looked upset also. "Good morning." I said smiling slightly. "What are you doing here?" She asked. "I just wanted to give you a ride to school." I said. Sakura sighed softly. "Look, Sasakay if this is about your stupid little date with Karin, I told you that I'm not mad!" Sakura said. "Uh-huh. That's why you're screaming at me." I said. "Forget it." Sakura said scowling and slamming the door. "Nice going, Sasakay." I said to myself. Sakura came back out a few minutes later with her book bag. "Sakura…" I said. "Leave me alone." She said as she walked by her car. "You're gonna walk to school?" I asked, raising my pierced eyebrow. "No. To Ino's. I couldn't drive anyway. No license." Sakura said, stopping to look at me. "Is this only about that date? Did I do something?" I asked. "No and it isn't about your damn date!" Sakura yelled. "Then why are you so upset?" I asked. "Just drop it." Sakura said. "Why the hell would he want to go out with her anyway?" Sakura thought as she started to walk again. I grabbed her wrist and smirked. "Are you jealous, Sakura?" I asked. She glared at me. "Are you serious?! I have no reason to be jealous over an egotistical moron like you!" Sakura said, pushing me back with her free hand. My eyes widened because she was pretty strong for her small size as a human. She broke my grip from her wrist, which wasn't hard in the first place, and turned her back to me. She looked at her feet and she shook slightly. "Oh crap. What I would give to be like Naruto right now." I thought. "Sakura." I said. She dropped her book bag. "Leave me alone." She said. I made her turn around and I wrapped my arms around her. "Sasakay, let me go." She said, trying to break my grip. I held her closer. "I'm sorry, Sakura. I didn't mean that." I said. Sakura stopped struggling and buried her face into my shirt. "Mean what?" She asked in a muffled voice. "About you being jealous and all of the sarcasm wasn't necessary." I said. "But you're right. I am jealous and I hate it." Sakura said. "Of Karin?" I asked with my eyes widening. "Maybe… A little." Sakura said.
"Why in the world would you be jealous of her?" I asked. "Because, even though Karin's annoying and stupid, she's confident enough to ask someone out and I'm not. And the fact that she asked you out right in front of me just pissed me off." Sakura said. Her voice broke. "If you want me to I'll…" I said. She shook her head. "If you're so upset about this date then why won't you let me cancel?" I asked. "Because she'll see it as a challenge and never leave you alone." Sakura said. "Girls are so weird." I thought to myself. She moved away to wiped her eyes and I raised my pierced eyebrow. "Alright. Either I'm finally going crazy or you grew overnight." I said. "Huh? Oh. I have on platform boots. They only add an inch." Sakura said. They were black with red thread making swirly designs. "I didn't think that anyone would notice." Sakura said. "Well, you're talking to someone who sees better than a normal human." I said smiling. Sakura smiled slightly. "I got you to smile." I said. She looked at her watch. "We still have a while before we have to be at school." She said. "Are you always up this early?" I asked. "Well, not really. What do you wanna do?" Sakura asked. "Talk." I said. "About what?" Sakura asked. "About you. Well demons. I haven't really met a lot of them." I said. "Okay. What do you want to know?" Sakura asked. "Well, every species has a weakness. What about demons?" I asked. "Basically, you can kill us like you would a human but the injuries have to be greater. We can't be poisoned, though." Sakura said. "What about powers?" I asked. "Every demon is unique. Each has their own special power. It could be like controlling an element or like a superpower from a comic book." Sakura said. "Oh." I said. "Anything else?" Sakura asked. "Can I give you a ride to school?" I asked. "In what?" Sakura asked. I motioned behind me with my thumb and Sakura's eyes widened. "A motorcycle? Are you nuts?!" She asked. "I have a helmet. Please?" I asked. "I don't know. I… I've never been on a motorcycle before and…" Sakura said. "Don't worry. I won't let anything happen to you." I said smiling. "Okay." Sakura said nervously. I got on and pulled on my helmet. I handed her my extra one. She put it on and put her book bag on her back. She got on and wrapped her arms tightly around my waist. "Don't worry." I said smirking. That only made her grip tighten. If I were a human, her grip probably would've killed me.

I never thought that being on a motorcycle would be so terrifying and exhilarating at the same time. When we got to school, the others were already there. "I knew that you would do this, Sasakay." Naruto said smiling. Sasakay took off his helmet. "Are you alright, Sakura?" He asked. I nodded into his back. "Are you sure because you can let go now." He said with an obvious smirk in his voice. "Sorry." I said, letting him go and blushing. I had wrinkled his black, short-sleeved Slipknot shirt. "Don't worry about it." Sasakay said smiling. I took the helmet off and fixed my hair. Sasakay got off and held his hand out. I took it and climbed off his bike. My legs felt like jell-o and I stumbled. Sasakay caught me and chuckled. "That takes some getting used to." He said. I stood on my own. "Sasakay! There you are, sweetie!" Karin said, hugging him from behind. I fought the urge the scowl and so did Sasakay. "Good morning, Karin." He said. She let him go and he turned to look at her. "Are you ready for our date tonight?" She asked flirtatiously. Sasakay nodded. "Make sure to wear a tux." Karin said. "Okay." Sasakay said. Karin practically skipped away. "So you're still going on that date, Sasuke?" Matsuri asked. "Don't worry about it. I won't let him cancel." I said. Sasakay glanced at me. We walked to English and sat down. The school day went by in a blur. "Sasakay, maybe I should ride with Ino." I said. "Why?" Sasakay asked. "I uh… well…" I said. "Is it about her?" Sasakay asked. "No." I said, a little defensively. "Then prove it." Sasakay said, handing me the helmet that I wore this morning. I put it on and climbed on. I wrapped my arms around his waist but my grip wasn't as tight as before. It didn't take us long to get to my house. Sasakay helped me off of his motorcycle and I gave him his helmet. "I'll see you Monday?" I asked. "Maybe sooner." Sasakay said with a smile. I rolled my eyes playfully. "Later Sasakay." I said. There was a strange glint in his eyes. It looked… sad. "Bye Sakura." He said. He drove off and I sighed sadly. My mom was at a meeting, so she wouldn't be home until eight. She works as a veterinarian, which is the same job that I wanted. I went into the house and went up to my room. Moon was curled up on my bed. When he heard the door open, he looked up and yawned. I looked at my clock and it was three forty-five. I went downstairs and grabbed a bag of chips. The house phone started to ring. "Hello?" I asked. "Hi Saku." Matsuri said. "Hey Matsuri." I said, going upstairs. "How are you?" Matsuri asked. I sighed softly. "Matsuri, I don't care about Sasakay's date okay? Sasakay can go out with whoever he wants to." I said. "I'm sorry. I just wanted to make sure. You should have told him to cancel." Matsuri said. "Why? It's just a harmless little date. Besides, I didn't want to get in the way of his fun." I said. "Who in the world can have fun with Karin?! And 'why'?! Because you two are soulmates! Sasuke is supposed to be going on dates with you!" Matsuri said. I blushed at the thought. "Matsuri, I really don't think that it matters." I said. Matsuri gave out an exasperated sigh. "It does matter! You read the soulmate thing in the book! You and Sasuke are meant to get married and have lots of kids and live happily ever after!" Matsuri said. I coughed from choking on a chip and scared Moon in the process. "What?! Matsuri, we're only sophomores! We shouldn't even be thinking about stuff like that right now." I said. "Oh my gosh. Could you imagine if Karin and Sasuke had kids?" Matsuri asked. "Matsuri…" I said. I couldn't help but wonder and I shuddered. "Ew! Don't ever do that to me again! Karin shouldn't be allowed to have kids." I said. "Yeah. Especially with the chance that they'll come out like her." Matsuri said. "Exactly. No one should ever have to meet another Karin." I said. There was a beep. "Oh hang on, Matsuri. I have another call. Wanna three-way call?" I asked. "Nah. I have to go anyway. Homework awaits." Matsuri said. "Okay. Bye Matsuri." I said smiling. "Bye." Matsuri said. We hung up and I answered the other call. "Hello?" I asked. "It's about time! What took you so long?!" Tenten asked. "I was on with Matsuri. Sorry." I said. "Guess what?!" Tenten asked excitedly. "What's up?" I asked. "I had a premonition! You have a surprise coming later tonight!" Tenten said. "What is it?" I asked. "If I told you then it would ruin the surprise." She said. "Then why did you tell me that a surprise was coming? You're messing with my natural curiosity." I said. "Nope! Not telling! Bye!" Tenten said. "Bye." I said. We hung up. I went downstairs to put the phone back on the receiver. I finished the bag of chips and threw the bag away. I went back up to my room and Moon was chasing his toy mouse. "I wonder what Tenten's vision was about. You wouldn't have any idea would you, Moon?" I asked. Moon looked up at me, meowed, and went back to playing with his toy. "I didn't think so." I said. I started on my homework. By the time I was done, it was five o'clock. I went to take a shower. I tried to clear my mind of Sasakay's date but I just couldn't. I blow-dried my hair and brushed it. I threw on a pair of gray sweatpants and a Criss Angel that was too big since it belonged to my brother. I stretched out on the bed and flipped through the channels on my TV. Before I knew it, it was six forty-five. "Sasakay has fifteen minutes until his date with… Karin." I thought. I pulled out my sketch pad and started to draw Moon but my eyes kept flickering to my clock. "Crap. Why did I have to go and tell him not to cancel? I'm such an idiot." I thought. My cell phone rang. It was an unknown caller so I hesitated. "H-hello?" I asked. "Sakura. Hi." A deep voice with an Australian accent said. I sighed of relief softly. "Sasakay." I said. "Please. I need to know. You're honestly okay with this? I'm telling you that you can tell me to cancel." Sasakay said. "Sasakay, I'm perfectly fine with it. Just… go." I said. I hung up before he could say anything else. I stored his number in my phone with a black heart beside his name. "Hmm." I said, pursing my lips. I changed the heart to a black rose and smiled. After a while, I took my pillow and placed it over my face. "Ugh! I need something to do!" I said. Moon did that funny foot thing beside me and curled up into a ball. I petted him gently and he began to purr. At precisely seven o'clock there was a tap at my window. I sat up and raised and an eyebrow. "Who in the world would be at my window?" I asked myself. I stepped outside and Sasakay was there. He was in a white dress shirt with the top button undone and the sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, black dress pants with a white studded belt. "Sasakay?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. "Good evening, Sakura." He said smiling warmly.
