Redemption Alaska Ch 9
The vampires made their way to the houses. Inside they spread out around the room giving each other some space. The leader of the pack took Konan and guided her to a room down the hall. Once inside he shut the door and turned her to face him. Tears ran down her cheeks as she looked at him, her eyes wide in fear.
"Tell me, are there more of you? You knew Deidara and that means that you two must have been together, hiding. Where? Tell me." He said placing his hand on her cheek using his thumb to trail the tear tracks to her ear. She shivered at the contact. She shook her head in denial.
"No it was just the two of us. I swear it." She said, her voice shaking. He made a tsk sound and leaned forward. Getting close to her ear he whispered.
"If you are lying to me, it will do you no good. We will find your friends and we will tear them to pieces." He said with a bitter laugh.
"There are no more. Just us and you have us." She said numbly. He made another sound like a sigh. If she wouldn't tell then they would have to flush them out.
He turned and left the room to speak to his pack. The sight in the room was a gruesome one. Covered in blood and happy with themselves the vampires all sat around the room waiting for any signs of life. Life that would be taken in a heart beat. They all looked up at the leader as he entered.
"We will use the girl to flush out anyone else who may still be hiding. She swears that she and Deidara were all there was but I think she is lying to protect someone." He said. The vampires all laughed sadistically.
"I don't know her. I have never seen her in my life." Deidara said turning to Sasori.
"Ssh, its okay. She is from your old life. You don't remember her because she isn't important." Sasori said. Deidara thought for a moment and then nodded.
"Madara you and Kakuzu will flank me as I walk her to the middle of the street. We will draw them out wherever they are." The leader said.
"Right, Pein. We are at your beck and call." Madara said. Kakuzu gave a nod of agreement.
Pein walked down the hall and grabbed Konan by the arm. She followed as she was pulled without restraint. Her fate was already set in stone there was no reason to fight. They walked back out into the snow, Pein's hands on her shoulders and Madara and Kakuzu flanking his left and right.
They moved back towards main street and stopped in the middle of it. Looking around at where the others may be hiding he called out to anyone who may be listening. How they hadn't found them was beyond him considering that they could smell and hear a heart beat form miles away.
"We have you friend. If you want her back you will come out and show yourself. Make it easy on her. Is her life not worth it?" He shouted out and Konan only hoped that the guys in the panic room were ignoring him. She would die if she cost someone else their life.
A few minutes passed and no one emerged. Pein looked around wondering if they were planning a sneak attack. It would never work as they were the most keen creatures on the planet. Any sound, smell, movement would be caught. Still no one showed. Konan prayed silently that the others stayed put. Itachi was smart. She knew that.
"I don't sense anyone, Pein." Madara said. Pein nodded. Konan was shivering as the snow came down all around them sticking to her clothes and soaking her to the bone. She shivered uncontrollably and Pein turned her back towards the houses. It had been worth a shot. Apparently her life wasn't worth their deaths.
They moved back inside the house and once again Pein took Konan to the bedroom. She shivered and shook as the cold attacked her body. Pein raised her head and looked into her eyes. His hypnotizing stare bore into her and all fear and emotion slipped from her. She looked calm and peaceful as he turned her head tot the side and sunk his fangs into her neck.
She made a gasping sound but nothing more. A moment later he released her neck and bit into his wrist. Blood ran from the punctures and he pressed the wound to her lips. She opened her mouth to say something and the blood ran onto her tongue. She swallowed and a moment later her eyes widened.
A glassy look came into them and Pein laid her on the bed. His mate would be born in a few hours and he would never be alone again. That thought thrilled him more than the thought of killing. Finding a mate was the most essential thing to being a vampire. Some vampires wandered endlessly alone for centuries.
Some never found their mate before they were killed off. The ones that found them early on were the lucky ones. Some vampires had ended their own lives in fear of never finding their mate. Here he was the lucky one. His mate had come to him and he hadn't searched all that long yet. At two hundred years old he had been disappointed that he hadn't found her yet but now it was all worth it.
He looked at the blue haired girl on the bed and reveled in the beauty of her. She had alabaster skin and the blue of her eyes had made her hair that much more vibrant. The red would look just as good though. He moved her bangs out of her face and sat on the edge of the bed.
He would treasure her always. She would never want to leave him and they would hunt together for centuries to come. He smiled at the thought. He lay down beside her and waited for his beauty to awaken.
Madara's POV
Madara sat on the counter in the Kitchen. He couldn't believe that Sasori had been lucky enough to find his mate this go round. Now it seemed that leader had as well. Sasori was older than all of them but he chose to take orders rather than give them. He was no leader. Sasori was a bit too unorthodox to be put in leadership position.
He had spent that last five hundred years looking in vain for his mate. He had all but given up the search when low and behold here in this pitiful excuse for a town was his mate all along. Zetsu was almost as bad off. He was a lover not a fighter. He loved the kill as much as the next vampire but he preferred to be snuggled up to his mate.
He of course hadn't found him yet and that bothered him. He was always sulking in loneliness. You had to actually feel bad for the guy. At least I did anyway. Kakuzu, he could care less if he found a mate or not. He simply preferred money over mate. Really no one could figure that one out.
Gaara was a brooding red head who talked only to Sai. The two were best buds and no one knew what was going on in the temperamental red heads mind. He was probably the most menacing. Maybe he had a stick wedged up his ass and it was causing him some issues.
Sai was quiet and pleasant to be around. He was polite and even though he could rip a person to shreds, he was really a nice guy. He was just a vampire. Had that not been the case he would have been very popular as a human. Finding a mate to him is a big deal. He said he wanted someone who was a lot like him.
However we don't choose them they are hand picked for us by the phantoms of hell. At least we say they were. It made no sense to that they could never find a mate until their blood called to them. One smell or taste and you found your mate. Kisame, now there was a guy that was a contradiction.
Give him a kitten he loves it forever. Give him a baby and he eats it. Of course its all in the blood lust. He wanted a mate as much as the rest of us. He needed to have that connection. One day we all hoped to have it. Maybe if luck was on our side we would have it soon.
Madara yeah, he wanted a mate. He wants to have someone to see eternity through with. It isn't very bright right now but having someone by your side makes it bearable. Would he find her? Maybe, maybe not. As long as he had forever to look though, he wasn't worried about it.
