"Speaking"

The ride to the castle was taking longer then anticipated. His nerves were already on edge and his heart couldn't be beating any faster. The horsemen behind him picked up speed and the sound of thundering horse hooves made his mind spin. This was no doubt suicide, running head first into a castle that probably held hundreds of demons. All kinds of shapes and sizes. Monsters from old and monsters new from all over lived in that cold and tall fortress. He had not needed to travel this road since his wife perished and now his son might very well be in danger. This road before him had opened one too many times and now it needed to vanish . . . Once and for all. His horse picked up speed and soon the outline of the castle was before them all.

"This is it, there is no turning back now," Deka said quietly. Retto looked at him and then to the castle.

I don't feel any ill intent here. I hope we're not making a huge mistake . . .

"Ah . . . Ah . . . Sa-Sasuke!" the blond whimpered. The blonds' head was moved to the side as he felt fangs grasp onto his neck. Sasuke drank and held on tight to the body below him. Naruto felt him finally pull back and both panted. In the corner the three brides giggled behind their fists.

"Master is so anxious!" They squeaked. Naruto felt light headed.

"Ah . . . The room is spinning," he whispered. Sasuke took pity and sat him up, holding him by his panting shoulders. The blond looked at him and frowned his brows. Sasuke let his curiosity peak.

"What's wrong? Did I hurt you?" he asked. Naruto bit his lip and shook his head.

"Sasuke . . . I want you to be honest with me, all right?" Sasuke felt a little clueless but he nodded any way. He couldn't help but feel a small hint of worry in his stomach from the look on the blonds' face. The blond took a deep breath and looked him in the eye.

"Did you kill Neji?" The raven's eyes went wide and he felt a vein pop somewhere. He felt himself growl as white hot jealousy ripped its way up his spine. The three brides sensed this and took a silent leave after a small nod to one another.

"You're still bent on that rapist?" He growled. Naruto blinked and scowled, he balanced on uneven footing when he suddenly stood from the bed. Sasuke stood to make sure the blond didn't hurt himself; after all he did drain quite a bit of blood already.

"Excuse me? Who was threatening my life not a day ago? All I wanted to know was if someone who supposedly loves me killed my childhood friend! Is that too much to ask for asshole?" He yelled. Sasuke felt his fists tighten of their own accord.

"Look, no he isn't dead but he should be! I took pity on the fucker and maybe now I'm regretting it!" The blonds' mouth fell open.

"What! Why would you do that? Neji offered me comfort when I needed it! Who are you to judge ass bite?" He growled.

"Random sex to you was comfort? You were being used Naruto! He only sought to use you!" He growled back.

"And you're not?" The blond retorted. Sasuke took a step back and felt his heart beat pick up. He frowned his brow and analyzed the blond in front of him.

"What do you mean?" He asked carefully.

"Deal with it. You were just a blood thirsty vampire who wanted to drain me dry right? That's why you followed me to the church! If my father hadn't of stepped in, I would be dead! Admit it!" The raven felt his eyes go red.

"I would never do that, I'm not that type of monster. I've loved you from the moment I saw you all those years ago. I'll admit, I could have taken a much lighter approach but your father knew of me almost all the time. It was hard to get close enough to you to meet you in person. I'm sorry if I sent the town into panic but I did what I thought was right. I was desperate and yes I'll admit this too, obsessed. Can you blame me, if you had fallen hard for someone, would you not want to be with them?" He asked. Naruto didn't know what to think, but he was torn again. He turned away and narrowed his eyes.

"So if Neji isn't dead then where is he?" Sasuke stood there and tried to calm himself. The jealousy was starting to roar again but he was desperate to beat it down for the blonds' sake.

"No doubt back at your home. I didn't kill him only injured him. I swear to you though he was a bad person. If you could have heard the things, he said Naruto, you would believe me!" Naruto turned to him.

"Like what? What did he say?" The blond challenged.

"Like I said, he wanted to use you. Do you know where talisman users draw their power from?" he asked the blond. Naruto looked confused and shook his head.

"Priests Naruto. Priests like you and your father. Had you stayed near him he would have literally sucked the life out of you." Naruto's face flashed and looked disturbed.

"No, Neji is my friend. He would never do that to me!" He yelled, covering his ears. Sasuke reached up and seized his hands. He pulled the blond close and looked him dead in the eyes.

"He might have been your friend but he isn't now. Next time you see him ask him. Make him tell the truth!" Naruto didn't want to believe him.

"No, Neji isn't like that," he tried to convince himself. Sasuke took pity and pulled the blond closer. His lips traced the tan forehead as he let an arm snake around the blonds' waist.

"I know it hurts but I want you to trust me. I would never forgive myself if I allowed harm to come to you." He spoke gently. Naruto shook his head and pulled away.

"I'm sorry Sasuke but . . . I've known Neji for far too long. I can't believe you based off of words alone. I need proof!" the blond yelled. Sasuke narrowed his eyes.

"Don't you trust me at all?" he yelled back.

"No, not yet, too many have died because of you. How can I believe anything from you right now?" Naruto didn't even want to look at him. He turned from him and crossed his arms, "Take me home." Sasuke couldn't understand this blond, not one bit.

"You want proof? Fine. I'll give you your damn proof!" He yelled, "I'll drag the damn bastard here if I have to! You shouldn't-"

A large boom went through the castle and both boys stopped their argument. Screams and roars could be heard and Naruto looked panicked. Sasuke heard large knocking booms on his door.

"Master! Master!" Gonno called through the wood.

"Enter!" Sasuke's booming voice said. The loud voice made a shiver go down the boy's spine, feeling the power alone through the noise. Gonno came through the door and gave a small glance to Naruto before he addressed Sasuke.

"Intruders! They came through the front gate!" the three eyed demon squeaked. Sasuke cast a look in the corner of his eye to his blond but the boy looked out of it.

"How many?" he asked.

"Six of them sire. There is one priest among them." Naruto gasped and covered his mouth.

"Father . . . " Naruto whispered. The blond attempted to run from the room but Sasuke quickly caught him and held his upper arm tight. The blonds' fear filled gaze met his own red swirling eyes.

"Stay. I will handle this," he told him. Naruto slapped his hand away.

"The hell you will. My father came all the way here on a misunderstanding of my kidnaping. I'm going with you!" he yelled. Sasuke was reluctant to let him. Naruto sighed and pulled the raven's face close. He gave a small kiss to the cold lips and looked him in the eyes softly. "If my father can see that no harm has befallen me then he will understand a little more. Please Sasuke, help put my father's mind at ease before he destroys your whole castle just to look for me," the blond begged softly. Sasuke relaxed his face into the blonds' touch. He raised a hand and ran it through the blonds' hair, soft downy locks caressing his digits. He sighed and closed his eyes.

"Very well, but stay close to me understand?" He explained softly. Naruto smiled and blushed a bit at the raven's worriment for his safety. The blond nodded.

"I understand so let's hurry." They both clasped hands and ran out the door. Gonno stood there and watched the exchange with a little confusion.

"Ohh . . . So that's why he wanted the blond, man I'm dumb!" he hissed. Gonno suddenly remembered the situation and ran down the hallway after the two. Wanting to help any way he could.

I'm sorry for the wait. I have been doing a lot of college stuff. I just recently got my license so I also had to go job searching. Writers block really sucks but I finally decided how I want to end this thing. I think you'll all like it. Sorry if crap was mis spelled and such.
