Sakura: Sasuke, don't you remember…?
Sasuke: Sakura, I didn't…drink from you?
Sakura puts hand on neck: Um, yeah. You kinda…did.
Sasuke notices Sakura's hand: Only in the neck?
Sakura nods
Sasuke: Well, at least you won't convert. But…
Sakura: But what?
Sakura: …Because I took your blood, that means we'll always be connected to each other's thoughts and emotions.
Sakura: …Why?
Sasuke: That's what happens when you take someone's blood but don't convert them.
Sakura: How do you know so much about it?
Sasuke: …Vampire instinct.
Sakura: And you didn't believe you were a vampire.
Sasuke shrugs
Sakura: So…how come you…don't remember what happened?
Sasuke: I have, sort of like, an alter ego now. I call him Demon Me, and he's the one you see when I transform. When he takes over, I don't remember anything he does with my body afterward.
Sakura: Sasuke, I'm sorry all this is happening to you…
Sasuke: ….
(The sun rises higher over the horizon, casting bright light on Sakura and Sasuke.)
Sasuke wince: Argh!
Sakura: What? What's wrong?
Sasuke in pain: The light…I have to …get away…
(He leaps up into a nearby tree, where the leaves and branches provide shade.)
Sakura: Sasuke can't handle daylight…
(Sasuke disappears.)
Sakura: He must have moved to a different tree.
(Naruto wakes up.)
Naruto: Huh? What happened? Where's Sasuke?
Sakura: He…left.
Naruto: Oh. Did he bite you?
Sakura: …No.
Naruto: Oh, well that's good.
Sakura: Yeah…
(Sakura feels a wave of tiredness wash over her. She yawns unintentionally.)
Naruto: Sakura, are you tired?
Sakura thinking: It must the bond between me and Sasuke.
Sakura: Nah, I'm fine.
Naruto: Shrugs.
