Blood. She loved it. The metalic smell as it coated her sword with its red glow. What facinated her most is, it was the what substained most life. Lifeblood.

As a pirate, its something she has grown use to spilling. But, she couldnt help but admire its beauty each time.

"Silver-sama." She looked over to Itachi, his red eyes locked on her. She always loved his eyes . Red like blood. Knowing he caught her atention, he serched her face, his beautiful blood colored irises darting around. "We will need to be getting more crewmates, if we wish to continue further..." Itachi flinched slightly when Hinata glowerd, his face going frightfully blank.

"He's right. We wont be able to fend off the Navy's new intrest in us, with just three people." Gaara flinched when their captains eyes landed on him. The pale-lavender tinted orbs penintating deep into him. He shiverd and lowerd his eyes to the deck.

There was a long silence as Hinata stood glowering at them. "Your acting like whipped puppies. Helpess and weak." Silver-Eyes spat, glaring at them when their heads shot up to glare at the captain. "The Navy may be chasing us, but we have yet to loose a battle. Or have you forgotten out of fear?" Their captain crossed his arms, glaring at them. They shifted uneasily.

"No, Captain..." Itachi mumbled, out of fear of his captain. They were strong together. That was true. But what if a fleet came after them? Even they wouldnt be able to handle it.

"... Gaara, set sail for Fire's port..." His captains cold eyes locked on the redhead, making him jump up and haistily make his way to the steer. "I have an old friend to visit." Her lips pulled up into a small smile. Suigetsu was in for a suprise.

The blue of the sea... It remindened Hinata of that navy-mans eyes. She hated it, the thought of some. What she hated most, was her blush.

A growl vibrated threw her throat. She would have to kill him. It must be his lifeblood that atracted her. After all, she was not alowed to fall in love. She was not alowed to be a woman. Most of all... She was not alowed to le ther timid nature show threw. Not now, not ever. Being 22 and a pirate, she promised herself never to be weak. Not untill she ruled them all.

Fires country's port wasnt far off now, her old friend Suigetsu would be estatic to see her. Seven years, it wouldnt be a suprise to the strange male. The last time he saw her was when she was still training to be clan head. Suigestu was one of her family's slave, and was well trained in the art of swords. He would make a good addition to her crew.

When Hinata left her duty as a hyuuga, she freed the slaves. Slavery was a cruel indestry. One she planned on ending soon as she was strong enough. They were people just the same, they didnt derserve being treated like that.

When she left, she kept tabs on the slaves she freed, in case they ever were in trouble and in need of her help. Of course, Itachi and Gaara didnt know of it, she liked to keep it secret. Any little weakness of hers could be used against her. Thats why she hid her small acts of kind-ness to the slaves when she was still the heir. Or why she never let her kind emotions show around anyone.

She had to be rough, roudy. She had to be a pirate. No, a captain. She was responsible for her crewmates lives.

She was raised like a man, so she had to act like one. No one could ever find out the sercret she was actually female. If it did come out, what would she do? Her shy, more docile nature might start to show. Cracks would form in the walls she built around her true self. There was a new-very small crack forming in the edje from her meating with the blue-eyed navy man. She had to keep the crack from spreading.

Hinata watched as Itachi and Gaara ported the ship. Already the towns people were starting to whisper, the vast red frabric of her sails, the beautiful black wood, it was impossible to not know the blood moon. Amoung villagers they were known for protecting small helpless villages from raids against other pirates. The crew of the blood moon were strange, it was said that where ever they landed something great happend. In sometowns it was being freed from bandits, others were freedome from lords. The blood moon never followed the rules, in either the pirate world or navy. They were to harsh to be classified as navy, but to kind to be pirates. Kind might be an overexaderation. They were still crude and rough, but not like other rank pirates that ported the shores.

The whole reason why the navy left them alone for the last seven years was because they never thought of them as a threat. But lately, theyve been spotting more and more navy ships around them. It seamed like the navy was analizing them, keeping a closer eye on their actions. Never before did they have problems with the sea-dogs, but that was changing rapidly. They may be dogs, but the bloodmoon were wolves.

Soon as the ship neard the docks, Hinata took off without warning her mates. They knew were to find her, the nearest bar getting rum.

Hinata loved her rum.

XxXxxXXX

Soon as she enterd the door, the smell of ale made her mouth water. They were out of ale for weeks now, since she so stupidy forgot to stock up the last time they set port. It wasnt her fault she went on a killing rampage when she learned of bandits raping and pillaging the younge girls of the village. She always had a soft spot for maidens, so soft and delicate. Unlike her. She could never be delicate, not after the things she had been threw.

She strode over to the counter and plopped down by some red haired girl and raven haired boy. The boys face was turned away, but seeing how the red-haired girl was all over him sujested he was attractive.

The bartender eyed her warily before nodding, acspeting she wouldnt shoot him at any moment. Hinata wasnt one for using her pistol. She liked her katana better. More blood.

"Cup of rum, make it quick." From the corner of her eye she seen the raven haired boys head swivle towords her. She turned her head, looking him dead in the eyes. His endless black orbs were what she rememberd first, then his chicken but hair. She rememberd that hair now. It belong to Itachi's little brother, the one around her age. He use to always follow them around as kids, complaing to her how he wanted to join the big-kids like her. Gaara was counted as a 'big' kid becuase of his attitude. She let him join in when he was older, about 7, to their games. He became part of their trio. When she left with Gaara and Itachi, she left him at home with the Uchiha's. The Uchiha still needed an heir, of course.

The fact he was here, far away from home, could mean two things. He left home like them, or he was travling. Either could be disasterose for her if word got out. She was trying to remain inconpicouse, despite their wanted posterd that litterd the streets, no one knew of their true identedys. They were all known by their nicknames. Hinata was Captain Silver Eyes. Itachi was Raven, and Gaara Red. They were simple names born of their looks.

"You!" Sasuke stood, nocking the red-haired female to the ground. Hinata looked down to the girl, then to Sasuke, then back to the girl. Should she help her? It was only right. Standing up as well, she held a hand out to the fallen female. With a flitter of her long red lashes, the girl took her hand. Without much effort, she choised the female up. "Karin." The red-haired female looked to Sasuke, then back to Hinata. Nodding, she scamperd away.

"Long time no see, Sasu-chan." Hinata smiled, more feral than anything. Sasuke lost all his boy-ish cuteness in the past seven years. He looked more lean, manly now.

"Dont call me that, Hinata-kun." Sasuke growled, eyeing her, as if debating how to react. Hinata shugged and took a bottle of rum from the passing bar tender, who shot her a glare. She glared back, sending the man stumbling away. Good man, he knew when not to mess around.

"Why not?" Hinata's smile turned into a smirk at the boys horrified face. Taking a swig of the burning liquied, she waved him closer. He aproched without much thought. Hinata had this odd way of speaking sometimes. Luckly Sasuke knew HER well enough to know that.

After all, Sasuke was engaged to her, soon after her family desited to reveal their oldst 'sons' true identidy. Hinata was female, and he was the only one to know. She left before her family revealed anything, she also made him promise not to tell anyone.

He agreed, only for her.

He towerd over her small, slight frame. It looked almost as if she was drowining in her baggy pirate garb. But from her eyes, the looks... He now knew she was far more dangerose than she seamed. She was the Pirate captain Silver Eyes. It all made sence now, Raven was probaly his brother, and Gaara was red. He wonderd why the trio were so powerfull, they were trained by the best after all.

"Shall we elaborate more later, Sasu-chan." She drawled out Sasu-chan, taunting him. He growled as he watched her chug down the rest of the bottle. How a girl like her could drink so much, he would never know.

"As you wish." He replied darkly. He wanted to hear was his Fiance had to say, and his beloved big brother wanted. Seven years was a long time. Her serching eyes made him sigh. He knew what she was asking alerady. He wanted to know why he was here. "I am a mercenary, Hinata-kun. I disaproved of the Uchiha name, untill I find my Fiance." He smiked. Oh, her found her allright. She was standing in front of him. Not to his suprise, Hinata didnt even twitch.

"Hahahah~" She laughed lowly, the laught could easily pass for a mans. But Sasuke knew better, he could take out the womanly tint. "I want you to help me find someone." He stared at her. She thought she could just show up and order him around? Since when was the WOMAN so bosy? It was the mans job to be ruler! It didnt even faze him with her urupt change in behavor either, he was use to it. Try growing up with her, it was even worst.

"What makes you think I'll help you?" He asked, his voice monotone. He learned his monotone from the best, Itachi, Hinata, and Gaara themsleves.

Her pale lips pulled into the devils smirk itself. "No one disobeys a direct order from their CAPTAIN, Sasu-chan. Welcome abord the blood moon. Your one of us now." All the grace of the Uchiha left him as his jaw fell open.
