Chapter 10: Hostages
"Okay, there are 35 targets inside," Ino's voice sounded quietly over the earpieces placed within everyone's ears. (Obviously)
"They appear to be stationary and unmoving," she continued.
"Well it is morning so of course they're going to be having an all day party," Tenten's voice came through dripping with sarcasm. Sakura stifled a giggle. Her attitude had quickly improved now that Sasuke was back and everyone had noticed. And everyone had caught on to there …'Relationship'. It was official when Naruto had declared that if Sasuke did anything to make Sakura cry he would personally…ehem and I quote… "Shove a silver stake through the area where Sasuke's heart should be"…end quote. This earned a few hits from said half vampire.
"Where are the hostages?" Neji's calm and collective voice came through the mini-mic.
"They're obviously in the same room as the Suckers so they can't escape He-She," came Sai's reply. You could practically feel Neji's flinch through the mini-mic.
"Actually no," Shikamaru's bored voice sounded serious, "They're in the room next to the vampires." There was a moment of silence.
"You just got owned Sai," Naruto's voice came.
"Shut up Fox,"
"How stupid can they get?" Tenten asked above the bickering between Sai and Naruto, "If they kept the Hostages with them then that would hinder our attack…"
"It's so they wont get tempted," Sasuke's cool reply came, silencing the two fighting in the background, "If they kept the hostages with them they would be tempted to drink and then there would be no hostages. Also if they are in another room the hostages are harder to get at and thus we can't reach them. Plus it also keeps them safe for when they gat hungry and they can't leave to feed."
"Uchiha I shall never know how you know this…" Neji said suddenly.
"I am half-vampire in case you forgot Hyuuga." Sakura could feel Sasuke smirk and smiled herself as she settled down in her position. Neji was the sniper on this mission. She was to go in first with Naruto and Tenten. Sai would come with Sasuke behind them while Neji covered their backs.
"I could never live in the mind of a Sucker," came Sai's voice with a sigh.
"You get used to it," Sakura said causing Tenten to laugh.
"See what you get tonight," Sasuke mumbled.
"A good night's sleep," Sakura said back.
"If you're finished?" Ino's voice was impatient. This was her time to shine.
"…"
"No?'' Came Naruto's answer.
"Well TO BAD!" Ino said forcefully, "Most of the Vampires are asleep so yeah move into your positions,"
Sakura crouched low and moved silently from behind the tree and brush that kept her hidden.
"Okay there has been one change in position," Ino said the keys on her keyboard typing away, "Sakura you are to stay where you are and cover the entrance."
"Shit," Sakura said through gritted teeth, she was looking forward to close combat. With a sigh she pulled out her pistols and put on two silencers, still silently she placed one on the ground in easy reach and positioned the other in both hands at shoulder height. She tilted her head and aimed.
"Ready?" Came Ino's voice.
"$50 says I cam shoot the lock out," Neji said, Sakura heard him adjust the sniper rifle he had.
"You're on He-She,"
"I'm ready," Sakura said and Sasuke and Tenten echoed her
"Bring it," Naruto said.
"Moooooove OUT!" the order had come.
BANG!
Neji's bullet shot through the lock bursting open the door.
"Fuck!" Was Sai's reply before Tenten and Naruto burst from their hiding spots. The Vampires inside were leaping to their feet still drowsy in the morning sun. They laughed at the sight of only two Hunters challenging them. Well until Sakura and Neji started to fire. The Vampires began to panic, seeing allies turn to the rust colored dust that signified their death and not knowing how, until they saw the silver bullets.
They charged the supposedly two Hunters using their speed to keep the hated Sharp Shooters from hitting them.

"Die you pieces of Shit!" Sai screamed as he and Sasuke ran out into the clearing. Then white hot terror shot through the Vampires at the sight of Sasuke. His eyes were gleaming blood red with the Sharingan.
Vampires are cowards, always serving ones more powerful then they to survive. They feared death but here was the half-breed to bring it upon them. Why does he fight us? They wonder. Why doesn't he join us? The humans will never fully accept him.
But one did.
One let him into her heart and she will never let go. That woman was killing them off as she fired bullet after bullet into the species that had wronged her at such an early age. The species that had killed Sasuke's mother because she loved a human.
That was the reason why Sasuke fought them. That was the reason why he would never join them. So he could protect her, like how he should have protected his mother. Like how his father had protected him even when he was about to die. Like how his half-brother should have protected them all.
With that thought Sasukes eyes went even deeper. The toma's began to spin. His fangs grew long and thin, claws as strong as steel grew as he gripped his sword tighter. The sliver blade a shining blur as he slashed and sliced. Splattering him with blood. His gaze was like cold fire; he was in complete control of his surroundings. He would protect her.
"Shit!" Sakuras yelp came through the ear-mic and Ino's surprised gasp caused everything to crash down behind him as he heard the next words.
"Well aren't you a pretty thing?" came a cold, slippery unfamiliar voice. Then came Ino's terrified voice.
"S-class vampire reported in the area, and it's got Sakura!"

Sakura fired round after round as the vampires came spilling out of the abandoned building they were inhabiting. She cheered silently as she saw Sasuke slicing his way through the enemy. His blade danced with him gracefully as he ducked swerved, side stepped and lunged. It was beautiful. In a bloody killing sort of way.
She was so intent on watching him that she didn't feel the cold presence behind her until it was too late. She pivoted on one knee and raised her pistol to fire but the vampire was to quick it slapped her gun away from her and grabbed her neck in one motion. It slammed her into a tree.
"Shit!" she yelped.
"Well," The vampire licked his lips, "Aren't you a pretty thing?"
