A/N: YAY!! I got Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 1 & 2 today, as well as Final Fantasy Dawn of Souls 1 & 2, and Pokemon quartz, so I am a happy woman. Anywho, in order to celebrate, I am sending Kairi out, very confused about herself, with a bunch of guys who like to drink... and I will do my best to keep out all of the violence and stuff... not to mention Gaara will be switching between Shukaku and himself around Kairi from now on.... This should get interesting. And it's the big 1-0!!

p.s.

Chapter Ten:

A night on the streets

Review:

"Will there be food...?"

"If there are resteraunts open-" Kairi started, but Gaara/Shukaku interrupted her.

"Not human food, demon food."

"Forgive me, Gaara-samma," She settled with that title, and tried to comprehend her situation, "but what is Demon Food?"

"Blood, virginity, childrens souls, the works..." Gaara-samma listed. She grimaced, and settled with Shukaku, that wasn't Gaara, or atleast she hoped not.

"No... there won't be."

"But you have blood, virginity and a childrens soul... I could always satiate myself with you."

X.x.X.x.X

"I... I beg your pardon?" Kairi asked, eyes wide, breath heavy, sweating and licking her lips... out of fear and something else.

"Hmmm.... I seem to have excited you. That doesn't normally happen." Shukaku stepped forward and placed his hands on her hips. Kairi went rigid, her breath hitching, and images flashing in front of her.

A child lay on the large king-sized bed, chained to the post by the ankle and only covered by the black and crimson silks.

A toddler was flung across the room by a slap.

A man fell to the ground, a bullet in his head as a little girl stared at her father, holding the smoking gun.

When Kairi came to, she had collapsed to her knees, and Gaara was shaking her, his eyes aquamarine.

"Kair-chan? Are you allright? Please tell me I didn't do anything... C'mon, Kairi, look at me, say something... anything..." The words he whispered were desperate and pleading. Just then Kankuro opened his door and peered down the hall. He narrowed his eyes at what he saw. Within a second, he had stormed over, shoved Gaara away, and had taken Kairi's chin in his hands. She blinked up at him, tears forming.

"Kairi-chan? What happened? Did he hurt you?" Gaara stood silently by his doorway, arms crossed, eyes cold but sparking with something in their oceanic depths. Kairi tried to look at him, but Kankuro held her chin firm. "Kairi, you need to tell me what happened."

"I... I just fainted, that's all," she lied, voice sing-songy, distant. She blinked, furrowing her brow, and shooting a glance to Gaara. Kankuro didn't buy it, it was obvious by the venemous glare he sent Gaara, but he got to his feet and helped Kairi up. He held her close to his chest for a milisecon, hugging her as tight as he could before letting go.

"So... may I join you tonight?" He asked. Kairi nodded. Kankuro was dressed in a pair of slacks, a white dress shirt with rolled up sleeves, a loose black tie and a black blazer. No makeup. She blushed slightly. He looked good. She nodded, smiling at the ground, then looked up at Gaara.

"What are you doing tonight?" He nearly growled out, looking at Kankuro's arm around her pointedly. Kankuro rolled his eyes and released her waist. Kairi's heart slowed, and her body cooled slightly, but she still felt like she was holding her breath.

"Me, you two, and some of the others are going into the village to hang out tonight."

"Us?" Gaara asked.

"Yep. You and Kankuro, or do I have to drag you there myself?" She joked.

"Try." Kairi didn't reply, because she knew very well she couldn't, but waited patiently while Gaara got ready. He came out in five minutes, cleaned up, hair spiked, and dressed in skinny jeans, converse and a loose Metallica T-shirt.

"You like Metallica?" Kairi asked as they walked towards the kitchen. Gaara shrugged. Well, I guess it's predictable... all hard rock n' all... Kairi thought with a shrug. As she was walking, she could practically feel Gaara close beside her, his breath hitting the back of her neck almost, making her feel like she was shivering, and very, very warm. Kankuro was close as well, and his movements contradicted Gaara's. He made her feel ice, like it put out the burn, but that did make her shiver. Kankuro smirked subtly, and Kairi nearly punched him for whatever was going on, but decided against it.

When they reached the kitchen, Kakashi leaned against a wall reading Icha Icha, Kairi didn't bother to ask why the man was here, it was just something about Kakashi that seemed like he should know everything and be everywhere. Naruto was digging around for a cookie in the cookie jar, another one already in his mouth, and when he saw Gaara, Kankuro and Kairi all quirking brows at him he flushed and scrambled to hide the blatant evidence. Lee was doing pushups on one finger, counting to pass the time, which seemed as normal for him as he could. Last, and probably least, was the gay and incredibly sexy Sai, who just watched curiously, until he saw the three sand nin.

"Tell me... are you what Gai-sensei calls a threesome?" Sai asked. Kairi gaped at him, trying to understand how to answer, and fumbling with her words. Kankuro stumbled and Gaara glared. He shot another glare at Kankuro and growled his answer.

"No."

Awe, shoot... Sibling rivalry, and it's all my fault.

I wouldn't worry.

Holy shit, who's that...?!!

You.

You mean I'm talking to myself... but I'm not, because you aren't me, yet you say you are so... I'm crazy?

Hardly. I'm a part of you.

"Kairi-chan? Are you allright?" Kankuro asked, leaning over her, his features soft and concerned. "You're doing this alot lately. It can't be good for your brain." Kairi glared at him and smacked him on the back of the head. Naruto snickered, and Gaara smirked slightly.

"Glad I'm amusing... So where do you guys want to go first?"

"The bar?" Sai offered. "Is that not a popular place to visit?" Kairi shook her head, ignoring all the others who agreed.

"Kairi-chan? Why not? The bar is fun." Lee questioned.

"Um..." Suddenly, she really, really didn't want to share it... and she couldn't remember why. She furrowed her brow, and settled for lying to them. She didn't want to worry them. "I just don't like it," she said with a shrug. Naruto rolled his eyes, coming up and dragging her out the door, the others following.

"Then I'll make you like it," he said with a laugh. "After all, Sunagakure is home to the Land of Fire's best vampire night club, Guilty Pleasures!" Kairi paled as Naruto dragged her down the twilight highlighted streets of Sunagakure, lights shining out across the village.

They finally slid to a stop infront of a large warehouse, and Kairi yanked free of Naruto. The others were smiling, and getting out their ID's. Gaara raised his hand, and stopped them. They all looked at him.

"I am Kazekage of Sunagakure, put those away." They grinned and nodded. Gaara led them to the front of a small line of about six people, who all gaped and pointed at him, and spoke to the gaurd. With a nod, he opened the door and walked in. Three seconds later he walked out with a tall brown-haired man. He wore ruffly clothing, and his hair fell to his waist, wavy and pulled back by black hairclips. He smiled, and some strange feeling washed over Kairi. She suddenly wanted to run.

The man bowed.

"Konban wa, Kazekage-samma. I am Jean-Claude, owner of Guilty Pleasures. How may I be of assistance?"

"Me and my friends wish to join in the activities of the night, but also wish that it not be known... if you understand what I mean, that is."

"Of course. The young lady is only thirteen, correct?"

"No, twelve." I lowered my head sheepishly and shook it.

"My birthday was about a week ago, Gaara-kazekage-sensei..." Kairi murmured. Gaara blinked, and then nodded slowly.

"Correction, yes, she is thirteen. The blonde and raven-haired boys are only sixteen, themselves."

"Very well, I can arrange this. Come in, we are about to begin." With a bow, he dissapeared inside, and the gaurd with a bow, opened the door wide, and smiled, fangs flashing. Kairi flinched. Gaara nodded, smirking slightly, and walked inside. Naruto dragged Kairi inside by her wrists with Lee's help, and Kakashi had put his book away.

The large group took a seat in a booth table. Kankuro and Gaara sat on either side of her, Naruto beside Gaara, Lee beside Naruto, Kakashi beside Kankuro and Sai beside Kakashi. Kankuro yawned, his arm casually draping over Kairi's shoulders. She flinched, and stiffened, more aware but didn't move it. She was done with the arguing tonight, and intended to have fun.

Suddenly, the lights went out and a large stage was highlighted in dark blue lights. A tall, beautiful man stood there, smiling, fang flashing. He was a vampire. Kairi shivered. Who would've thought that Sunagakure had vampiric rights?

"Welcome, ladies and gentleman, to Guilty Pleasures, where your darkest fantasies come true."

A/N:

Cheeky half-demon: Yes, Shukaku is a bit of a pervert, but that's because he's more animal than human. Thanks for the support through the story, and a bit of a sneak-peak for you, do you remember the man that appeared to her in chapter two? He's coming back. Also, Gaara isn't being perverted about the sexy no jutsu, as Naruto explained... anywho, hope you enjoyed this chapter!

And thanks to my unknown reviewer!
