Yes, I know that this has taken me a long time to do and I have a lot of reasons as to why, though many of them are probably bad, and I have no idea if anyone actually want to know them but here goes:
I wanted to have my story, Hidden Blood, done and since it only had 5 chaps left I took some time and did that…
I have been fiddling with a couple of oneshots and there is still one that will not leave my head but I will do this chap before beginning it…
My mother thought that I should spend some time with the family
I have been reading WAY too much of other peoples fics and have, somewhat, forgotten my own in the meantime…
And I just got myself a new game to my PS3 that I used most of my day playing yesterday -__-;;
Yes, yes… Bad excuses, I know ^^''
Hehe, now I am sure that you people want me to continue with the chap so here it is, enjoy X3

It had been a couple of days since I had been in the woods, talking to Bella about what I was. We had been so close these last couple of days and had hardly left each others sides at school. I had been at her place a couple of time and I had this sneaking suspicion that Charlie didn't like me.
And it had nothing to do with the glares that he liked to send me every time that he got the chance. Nope, not at all – yes, I DO hope that you people can sense the sarcasm.
My days had gotten stranger, Shizune had been looking at me in a odd way and had asked me to come talk to her and Tsunade sometime. It really freaked me out when they told me of the dreams that they had.
Flashback:
I was sitting in the class, chewing my thumbnail, when Shizune walked into the room, she went to the teacher and whispered something to him. I watched them, I could hear what they said but they didn't know that.
"Can I borrow Sakura a little?" Shizune asked, mr. dumb – as I had dubbed him – looked up at her, he looked like he didn't really get her question until Shizune rolled her eyes and pinched him.
"Sure you can." He said in a flirtatious voice, Shizune flinched slightly and I could have laughed out loud and yelled at him, saying that he wasn't her type, Kakashi was, but none of them knew Kakashi so I couldn't really say that to them.
"Thank you." Shizune said, working hard on not showing her discomfort to the man in front of her, it would be kind of rude to do that.
"Sakura, will you please follow me?" Shizune asked, I smiled, packed my things and followed her out of the room. My classmates were whispering around me, none of the things they said sounded too gentle, not that I really cared much.
She walked in silence, she seemed to have something to say so I kept quiet, hoping that she would talk without me trying to get her to do it.
Then we came to the office.
We walked in to see Tsunade asleep at her desk, Shizune grumbled tiredly and went to wake the woman up, which seemed to be harder than it should have. I grinned when I saw the empty bottle of liqueur lying at the blondes feet and knew, instantly, that she had been drinking. She had probably forgotten that I would be there.
Then I went and did something that had Shizune stunned, I pushed the sleeping women to the floor which woke her up instantly and in a sour mood. She gave me a dark glare to which I just smiled innocently, when the glare just intensified, I gave her the wounded puppy look. It seemed to help and she calmed down before burying her head in her hands.
"I want to know, Haruno… Do you have any idea about why Shizune and I could have dreams about you? Dreams where we know you well, dreams were we add a suffix like chan? Do you know anything about it at all?" Tsunade asked, she sounded desperate and scared and I couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
She was having dreams of her past life with me and she probably had no idea what to make of the suffix that she had been adding to my name in her dream.
"You and Shizune… Seem to be dreaming about your previous lives." I answered, Tsunade looked like she could kick me and Shizune seemed to think about it. I smiled nervously at them, they probably thought that I was crapping around with them and I had a feeling that they would get to know just what I was too, especially if I had to make them believe in my words.
"Do you really want me to believe that you little brat?" Tsunade asked angrily, I exhaled heavily when Shizune gave a nod, she had the same opinion on this as Tsunade did, figures. She always agreed with her, except when it was about her drinking habits.
"Uh, yeah." I muttered and looked at her with a pretty dumb expression on my cold face. Tsunade banged her fist on the table and looked like she might blow up but then the door was opened and someone walked in, placed some papers on Tsunades desk and hurried out wit ha frightened look on his face.
"Give me a reason to believe you." She said darkly, I could see her attempting not to throw anything at me and I grinned inwardly, Tsunade – the old Tsunade – would have been like that too if anyone would have told her something like that.
"Do you believe in vampires?" I asked with a bright smile, she gave me the are-you-kidding-you-little-brat look and looked like she might strangle me.
"What are you on kid?" she asked angrily, I gave her my warmest smile and began my story, right from the beginning to the end. When I was done she just sat there, staring and wide-eyed at me, she seemed to believe me a bit more now and it lightened my mood considerably.
"Do you believe me now then?" I asked, she didn't say anything, she just got a vacant look in her eyes, and I realized, all of a sudden, that she was reliving memories from her previous life. I smiled at her and looked at Shizune, she had the same look in her eyes, I realized.
Then they both seemed to come back t life, they looked at me with something close to wonder in their eyes before both of them flew at me, screaming my name. I sat with them in there for the rest of the day.
They were happy but somewhat pissed about the fact that they wouldn't be able to d oany of their jutsus since their bodies hadn't been trained for it.
I had just laughed.
End flashback…
Then they had begun to come, the other people that I had known.
Naruto came, then Hinata together with Shino and Kiba, Ino with Chouji and Shikamaru, Tenten with Neji and Lee, Gaara with his siblings and then all our new teachers.
Kakashi, Gai, Asuma, Kurenai and Baki.
Man, and all of that happened over one week. I felt so exhausted by the end of that week. All of them had given me some looks. I tried to avoid them but then Tsunade decided that I should tell them the same story that I had told her and Shizune.
I didn't look forward to that, who would? I was about to tell my old friends about their past and why I had disappeared and, if they remembered, then I was sure that they would get angry and that they would want some answers as to why I had disappeared.
I didn't need it and I really didn't want to but then Orochimaru and Kabuto came. Both of them had their memories from their previous lives, how, I don't know all I know is that however they got it, is something that I do not want to know.
Flashback:
I was walking down the hall, all the students and teachers had gone home already but I had stayed back to talk to Shizune and Tsunade about telling my old friends. She had told me that they had gotten a new teacher.
I had asked for the name and had immediately regretted ever asking. It was Orochimaru and Kabuto.
I hoped that I didn't have them in any of my classes and as my luck would have it, I did. I had Orochimaru to biology where Kabuto was his assistant. I knew instantly that I would begin to hate those lessons and try to get away from them as much as I could.
Anyway, I was walking down the hall when I saw them, Orochimaru and Kabuto. They were standing in front of the doors to the school, I winced ever so slightly, I really didn't want to talk to them now.
I guess Orochimaru saw me flinch because after I did it, a creepy smile spread on his face. It was the kind of smile that just about told you that he found your fear funny and that if you ever tried to run then he would devour you, just like the hungry animal would.
Kabuto was standing behind Orochimaru, trying to see if I would attack but as I was right now he couldn't see if I would attack or run away but he gave it a try.
"What the hell do you want?" I asked harshly, Orochimaru just gave me one of his creepy, pedophile smiles before he began to walk to me. My eyes narrowed at him and I, mentally, tried to get him to stay away, figures that it wouldn't work like that.
"Why Sakura-chan, what have I ever done to you?" he asked in a sweet tone, I wanted to puke from just hearing it.
"Oh I can think of a couple of things." I said and glared at him, I really wanted him to die at that moment, why did my luck have to suck that much? I couldn't really punch him through a wall and I couldn't really die.
"I will have you." He whispered in my ear, then he disappeared in a swirl of leaves. I shuddered and fell against the wall as soon as he was completely gone with Kabuto.
Flashback end…
Just thinking about that gave me the creeps. Why did that guy have to be that creepy?
And then Jacob had phased for the first time. He didn't call Bella at all for a really long time and as such she stayed with me as I tried to calm her down. She felt really broken about it and she couldn't understand why he didn't want to see her or even talk to her.
And that was despite the fact that I had told her about werewolves before.
So when she had finally calmed down enough to actually listen to me, I had explained to her why Jacob wouldn't call her and after that she could smile again. Then one day, when we were walking in the woods, we saw Jacob run with his pack.
Bella had a big and goofy grin on her face the rest of the day.
But she was really happy when Jacob came to her, but he wasn't all too happy about her being with me, nope not at all.
Flashback:
Bella and I were sitting on her bed, Charlie wasn't home which was good, I didn't want him hanging all over us and listening in on our conversations. We were talking happily about some of the things we had experienced in our lives.
It had been like that for a couple of hours, it had been then that Jacob had decided to visit Bella. He came through the window. He had really grown, that was clear.
But then again, that happened to all the wolves when they had phased the first time, I had seen it after all and even though it was a long time ago, I could still remember it clearly.
He had been about to say something when he realized that I was there, then he began to growl, he probably didn't like my kind much, I didn't blame him, that was how it was after all that bad stuff had happened back then and it seemed that the instinct was still there.
"What the hell are you doing here bloodsucker?" he asked, venom clear as a day in his voice, I grinned broadly at him but didn't say anything which caused him to growl even more.
"Awe, it´s really too bad that you wolves had to become like that." I said with a soft look in my eyes, his growls stilled and he looked at me, stunned into silence. He had probably thought that I would try to kill him or something like that.
"I had a wolf friend once, he was nice and he smelled pleasant too. You have the same kind of smell you know." I said, he looked confused so I told him to sit down and then I began my story. His scent changed all the time when I was talking. It became more and more pleasant to smell and I realized that he might just be the reincarnation of my old friend.
When I was done talking he seemed more relaxed around me, I excused myself so that Bella and Jacob could talk to each other alone.
I smiled at the sky as I left.
End of the flashy…
It was Monday, Tsunade had decided that we should tell my old friends about it that day. She had told them to meet her at her office when the day was over, none of them really understood why.
I walked to the office, I felt tired but I knew that I wouldn't be able to sleep, no matter how tired I was. I opened the door and realized that I was the last one there, even Kakashi had been there before me. It seemed that they were just a little bit different here than they were back then.
"Do any of you believe that people can be reborn?" I asked, I got more of the looks that asked me if I was crazy, I just smiled a sad smile and began my tale. They had those looks in their eyes too, the looks that told me that they were reliving memories from their past lives.
"Why the hell didn't you come back?" Ino was the first one to recover enough to ask me anything, I flinched slightly and remembered how my first days as a vampire had been, not anything to be proud of.
"I didn't want to hurt any of you." I answered, feeling down all of a sudden.
"Why would you hurt us?" Naruto asked, I chuckled dryly, trust him to ask a dumb question like that and right after I had told them that I was a vampire too.
"I was a newborn vampire, if any of you had gotten too close, if you had gotten just the tiniest of cuts, then I would have sucked you dry." I answered and flinched at the frightened looks that I was getting.
"You let us believe you were dead." Naruto mumbled, he didn't continue the sentence and I didn't really want him to do that either. He looked so sad right then and I felt that I should hug him but I didn't know how he would react to my cold touch.
"You have seen all of us die and you had to live with that for such a long time." Naruto whispered and looked up, he had tears in his eyes and then he, all of a sudden, flung himself at me and cried into my shoulder, I was so stunned but, after a little while with me just standing there with a dumb expression on my face, I hugged him back.
We were just standing like that when Naruto realized that he was getting colder he let go of me and stepped back, frown on his face. He reached up and placed the tips of his fingers on my stone hard cheek. He pulled it back hurriedly with wide eyes.
"How can you be that cold?" he yelled, I looked at him with wide eyes and then I burst out laughing, the others followed closely and was soon laughing just as much as I was.
(linedivider)
It was a couple of days later when he came.
I had been so surprised to see him.
I could smell him clearly.
It shocked me, really it did.
He was a vampire, just like me. I hadn't wanted that for him but back then, the vampires had been all over the place and he had, most likely, been overpowered by them.
He was there, he was alive and he was so… Not how I remembered.
Uchiha Sasuke was a vampire.
