FenreldStormblade: I might bring up the girl again. She was kinda a filler character to add some more dialogue and to show that some of the others were just captured during simple outings.

angels sabbath: glad you like it and hope you continue to like it

Midnight Lost: you liked the vampire surprise at the end didn't you :P

WARNING: dark insinuated events in this chapter

Chapter 2: earning fragile trust

Aurora saw her mansion coming to view as she continued to walk with the boy in her arms. She looked down at him and saw that he began to shiver due to the cold. Pausing for a moment, she used her free hand to undo her obi, allowing her kimono to open. She then shifted the boy so that he would be inside her kimono and wrapped him up so that he would be warm. She didn't care much for the cold. She wrapped her kimono around him and continued to walk back to her home, not caring about her state of undress. As she made it through the front gate she saw several of her servants running towards her.

A maid was the first to arrive and asked. "Lady Aurora! Is everything alright? We saw you leave the mansion but were unable to catch where you went."

Aurora smiled at her servant. "I am alright, Kira."

The other servants came to stand by the maid and were showing their own concern for the mistress.

Aurora smiled at how everyone there was concerned about her but she brought up a hand to stop their questions. "I thank you for your concern but I really should bring this one inside." she shifted her arm to show the boy's face as it was the only thing that was not covered. "May I ask one of you to draw a bath for us?"

One of the other maids bowed in response. "Right away, mistress. I shall have the washers sent to the bathhouse for him."

"No, that will be quite alright. I shall tend to him on my own. Please prepare my personal bath for us."

The others did not question her as they all bowed. "Yes, master." They then turned and made their way back inside the mansion.

Aurora smiled as she made her way inside and towards the baths. She felt movement from the boy and looked down and could see him trembling. But this time, it wasn't from the cold. It was from fear. She could see that he was still unconscious so it wasn't from being back here. The shifting of his eyes under his eyelids told her that he was having a nightmare. "What could you be seeing in your dreams?"

He was walking through the familiar streets as he enjoyed the bright sun and gentle breeze that usually took up every day in the village. He smiled as he could clearly hear the birds chirping as they flew high in the sky.

"Naruto."

The boy, Naruto, turned to see the old man that gave him his own place to live and made sure he was ok every day. "Jiji!" he ran over to the man and hugged the old man

The old man chuckled as he patted the boy on the head. "I see that you are enjoying the day. Would you like to have company on your little stroll?"

Naruto looked up and smiled "yeah!" he began to walk with the old man through the village. "But aren't you busy with all those papers you have?"

The old man chuckled as he shook his head. "I am taking a little break from those and chose to at least enjoy some of the bright sunshine. I saw you walking through the streets and figured that you could keep an old man company."

Naruto beamed at him before the two continued to walk. They enjoyed the stroll through the village as no one bothered them.

Something that Naruto didn't realize was that there was no one else on the streets. It was just those two. Another odd thing that he didn't notice was the fact that all the writing on signs that were hanging above stores or newspapers, were written in gibberish, with misshapen letters of varying sizes.

Naruto looked up at the old man and asked. "When did you say I could go to the academy and make friends?"

The old man chuckled as he placed a hand on the boy's head. "You are still slightly too young for that and you have plenty of time before that to make a decision if you want to become a $ #$%#&..."

Naruto tilted his head in confusion as he looked back up at the man. "What did you say?" Naruto saw the old man open his mouth to speak but as he moved his lips, no sound could be heard. In fact, Naruto couldn't hear anything anymore.

No birds

No wind.

Not even his footsteps.

Naruto looked around and finally noticed that there was no one else in the streets. When he took another step, he stumbled as the whole village disappeared and was replaced with a dark forest. "Where am I?" he turned to his side to ask the old man. "Hey, Jiji, where are….?" but the old man was gone. "Jiji?" he spun around to see if he could spot the old man but he was nowhere to be found. As he did this, he recognized the forest he was in. It was the forest outside the village walls. He usually came out here to go fishing or just enjoy nature. But right now, the forest seemed…wrong. "Jiji?"

Then rustling was heard coming from beyond the trees

"Hello?" Naruto spun around as he continued to hear movement from beyond the trees "who's there?!"

Darkness. That was all he saw nowadays. He didn't know how long it had been or how many times he had been moved but he did know that he shouldn't be here. He heard the metal door open and knew what was to come. With the bright light coming from the door, he couldn't see the man's face but knew it was him.

"Are you going to behave like a good little slave?"

Naruto merely growled at him as he didn't know what to say." He stopped when he was backhanded hard and was sent headfirst into the wall, causing him to bleed.

"Don't you dare show your teeth to your Master." The man picked Naruto up by the hair and did his best to avoid the flailing feet and hands. "You've been here for over three months and still won't submit! Your beginning to be more trouble than your worth." He was hit in the face by the boy's small hand and bared his fangs. He grabbed the back of the boy's head and slammed his face into the ground. "How dare you hit your Master!" he held the boy up in the air again, facing away from him, and opened his mouth to bite down hard into his neck.

"ARRRGHHH!" Naruto flailed as the man bit him and didn't let up even as the man continued drinking his blood for thirty seconds.

The man finished having his meal and instead of just pulling out his fangs, he moved while they were still injected, tore off a small bit of skin and muscle, before tossing the boy at the wall.

Naruto dropped to the ground and he chose to not get up as he winced at the pain from the ripping of some of his neck.

"You are nothing more than cattle and you disrespect me in such a manner. Hmph. you are too much trouble to keep, even with your usage. But I might get something out of you. Let's see how much money I can get selling you to someone else. Let them deal with you." he then left the cell, slamming the metal door shut before locking it

Naruto's world again fell to darkness as he lay on the ground, bleeding. He didn't know how long it took or when he closed his eyes since, open or closed, there was nothing but darkness, but he fell unconscious, not knowing he was going to be sold off to another vampire soon.

one of many times he would be sold.

Aurora walked down a hallway greeting many of the servants that were going about their tasks. Cleaning the halls, the windows, and the occasionally ornamental suit of armor. She saw several of them closing the curtains before they turned to her and gave a greeting.

Then, one of the maids let her curiosity get the better of her and she walked beside the lady of the mansion before asking. "Mistress Aurora, may I ask about the boy in your arms?"

Aurora looked at her and nodded. "You may, though I know nothing about him. He has yet to say a word since I bought him from the auction house."

This caught the maid by surprise. "He was being sold at the auction house?! But …." Her gaze fell to the sleeping boy. "He is so young. Do they usually sell children in that horrible place?"

Aurora was not surprised that the maid was shocked at this as she was a recent addition to the mansion and was fortunate enough to have been bought by Aurora. She thought about it for a second before responding. "No. Usually when children are captured, whether by slave traders, servants of a vampire, or the vampire themselves, the child is kept and manipulated to be completely submissive to them. It is exceedingly rare for a child this young to be sold. Normally it is the adults that are sold whether because the owner becomes bored of them or they find one better suited to their tastes. I do not know the boy's story but I could tell that he had been through much before I had purchased him."

"I am sure that he will see that you mean him no harm. You rescued me from being bought by another, and from the stories that I have heard, you did the same for many here." The maid then looked at the boy for a second before looking back at Aurora's face, "Will you free him?"

Aurora was about to answer when something happened that she did not expect.

Naruto was waking up from his jumbled memory. He was grateful to leave that nightmare as it was one of many he had nowadays. He slowly opened his eyes as he tried to remember what happened before he lost consciousness. He remembered escaping from the mansion and slightly enjoying the fresh air after so long.

Then pain.

His body had felt like it was splashed with liquid fire before it seeped into his skin and he fell onto the ground. Then he remembered …that woman. The woman found him….and bit him!

Naruto's eyes shot open to see where he was and saw that he was in the woman's arms. On reflex, he kicked off her and away from the vampire.

Everyone in the hall gasped in surprise at the sudden action and all turned to look at the boy

Naruto saw that he was surrounded by unknown people. He had to get away. He had to escape. He saw no clear opening but he was not going to be chained up again.

Several of the servants watched as the naked boy sized them all up. Some of them began to slowly close in on the boy in an attempt to calm him down but that turned out to be a mistake.

Naruto saw some of them get closer and in panic, he lept at one of the males and kicked him in the head to get him away. Using the force of the kick, he pushed himself towards one of the females and tackled her in the stomach. Once the woman was on the ground he jumped off her and punched another in the face. 'Never! Never!'

"Everyone, step back!"

The servants looked to their mistress with confusion as they were just trying to stop the boy but the serious look on her face told them not to question her.

Naruto saw them all take a step back from him and as his eyes shifted, he saw a suit of armor standing to the side. Seeing a chance, he leaped to it and ripped the sword it was holding off, causing the suit to fall to the ground.

The servants had to jump out of the way as the boy began to flail the sword at them. Many of them were barely able to avoid getting seriously slashed but some of them did start to bleed from some cuts they received.

Naruto saw that they were all backing away from him and he began to walk backward, down the hall. He shifted his gaze to all of them till his sight landed on the vampire. He glared at her as he continued to make slow steps away from all of them.

Aurora was relieved that he had not seriously harmed any of her servants but she could not allow this to continue. She watched the boy carefully and saw that his hands were trembling as he held the sword. She would have thought it was comical seeing him wield a sword that is twice his size if it wasn't for the fact that he was attacking everyone around him and the look of panic in his eyes. "Stay back, everyone."

Naruto flinched at the woman speaking suddenly but he stood fast as he kept inching away from all of them. But he froze when he saw her walking towards him.

One of the butlers spoke up in worry. "Mistress….are you sure you should get close to him?"

Aurora ignored him and continued to walk slowly towards the boy.

Naruto began to take full steps back in correspondence to her steps forward but with him being much smaller, she was gaining on him.

Aurora could see the panic rise in him and she knew that he was about to either run or attack. Either one, she would be ready for. She soon found out which it was. She leaned back to avoid the blade swiping at her face, but with his height, it would have slashed at her chest. Despite her leaning back, she continued to walk forward as he swung wildly at her while moving backward.

He wanted her away from him. He had seen these swords used on people and it always brought fear in them, yet she didn't seem to care about it. He kept swinging it around despite how he never used it before. His panic grew when he saw her swat the sword away, not realizing that she was easily able to do this because he swung the flat side of the blade at her.

Aurora saw his panic rise and his swings were becoming more frantic. She feared what he might do if this kept going so she needed to end this. She took a much closer step to the boy and saw him react as she thought he would.

Naruto freaked out when she got much closer and he jumped back in fear. Remembering something he had seen before, he pulled the sword back and ran at her

The servants screamed towards the mistress as they saw what was about to happen.

"Mistress, move!"

"Look out!"

"Watch out!"

They all screamed as it was too late

The blade pierced through Aurora's body and out her back with her hunched over the boy

Naruto was heaving at what he had done. He ran the sword through the vampire and despite how he thought that he would be able to finally escape, he couldn't let go of the handle of the sword. Even as his hands trembled, causing the sword to tremble inside her, he could not let go. Even the blood slipping on his hands did nothing to get him to run.

"I mean you no harm."

Naruto looked up at the voice and saw that she was acting as if nothing was wrong. Despite how the sword pierced the center of her chest. He flinched when he felt her cup his cheek but his legs just wouldn't move. He shut his eyes as he saw the other hand coming up. However, instead of the pain he expected, he felt himself being gently pressed into the woman's breasts.

"You need not fear me. I promise that you will not come to harm here." were her whispered words as she gently ran her hands through his hair

Naruto tried to remember what this was. He knew that he had experienced this action before but it had been so long since he experienced one that he couldn't remember. His hands finally slipped from the blade hilt and began to fall. But at the last instance, they grabbed onto whatever they could as he felt the need to grasp something so they grabbed onto the sides of the open kimono. He felt something wet sliding down his cheeks and he could tell based on how it felt that it wasn't blood

They stayed like this for a minute until Aurora slowly let him go and stood up. Once she stood up straight, she grabbed the hilt of the blade before pulling it out of her chest. looking down on the boy for a second, she turned around and handed the sword to one of the butlers. "Make sure this is cleaned up and placed back with the suit. No rush so please take your time."

The man took the sword and bowed to her. "Very well, Master."

Aurora turned back to the boy to see he was still standing in place while looking at her in confusion. She turned back to the servants and ordered. "Please clean up this mess and then you are free to do as you please." Seeing them all bow to her, she turned back to the boy before walking past him. She stopped a few steps away before looking over her shoulder to see him facing her with the same look of confusion. "Come along. Follow me."

Naruto felt his legs move on their own and his confusion shifted back to distrustful anger.

Aurora figured what caused him to regain such a look but at the moment, it couldn't be helped. She began to walk down the hall, with the boy following her.

After a bit of walking, the two made it to a large door that had the words bathhouse on it.

Aurora opened the door before she entered the extravagant bathroom that had a large bathhouse size tub for her to use. She saw that the water in the tub was already warmed and a set of washing supplies was set on the edge. She looked to the maids that were standing at the ready for their orders. She turned to look behind her and spoke to the boy. "Come along."

Naruto slowly came in, expecting to see another dungeon or cell but instead was surprised to see a large brightly lit room that was slightly warm and humid

Aurora smiled at the awe on his face before she looked at the maids. "Thank you. You may leave. I shall call for you if I require anything."

The maids bowed again before they all left the mistress with the naked boy alone.

Aurora made her way towards the Luxury tub while the boy followed her. She slowly walked down the tub steps as she enjoyed the warmth of the water, not caring that her clothes were also getting soaked. She continued to slowly submerge herself till the cleansing liquid reached her hips. She then moved to the side and sat on the underwater bench and enjoyed the comfort of the water. She then looked over to see the boy still standing out of the tub. "Well, come along. Join me."

Naruto did his best to resist her order, but his legs began to move closer to the tub. As he saw that he was about to step inside, he had flashbacks of being doused in cold water in an attempt to clean him. He was surprised when he took a step inside and instead of the sharp sting of cold water, it felt nice and warm. He walked into the tub and made his way towards Aurora as he was close to chest-deep.

Aurora saw the surprise look on his face and could imagine what it was for. She figured that he was not expecting it to be warm, which told her that he either is not used to water or he might be used to it being cold. 'I really must know what he had gone through.' she gestured for the spot next to her and knowing he would reluctantly deny it, she ordered him. "Sit next to me, please."

Naruto moved and sat down next to her. Despite how he enjoyed the warmth, he didn't want to be anywhere near her. He wanted to get away but he couldn't move.

Once she saw that he was seated, she began to remove her wet clothes and put them on the edge of the pool. Now bare of clothing, she grabbed the washing supplies and moved over to the boy. She placed a hand on his shoulder and saw him flinch at her touch but she made sure that she was gentle. "Sit on the edge of the pool, please."

Naruto was confused that she was being gentle with him. 'Is she really a vampire?' he was too confused about her behavior even as his body moved against his will and he stood upon the bench and sat on the edge of the tub with his feet still in the water.

Aurora smiled gently at him before she sat on her knees on the bench. "Please, turn around." Once he did so, she lifted his right arm before she poured some body wash on it and gently ran a washrag up and down his arm. She made sure that she got the mud and dried blood that covered his body while not putting too much pressure as his body frame looked skinnier than any boy should look.

Naruto looked over his shoulder to keep a wary eye on her as she ran the soap and water on his arm. It felt odd to have someone do this for him but he was ready to retaliate if she did anything that would be harmful. But so far, she held his hand and arm as if it was the most valuable thing she had in her possession. It tickled when she put the rag down and began to run her fingers through his. He felt himself relax a bit and turned his head forward to let out a breath

Her hands were much larger than his.

Aurora gently lowered his arm before she moved to the other one and did the same. She could see that he was still tense around her but he was beginning to relax as she continued to gently wash him. She leaned forward as she whispered. "See, I mean you no harm. I just wish to take care of you." she didn't want to startle him so speaking softly would be the best way to calm him.

Naruto tensed again at the sound of her voice but not as much as he was before.

Aurora moved to his shoulders and washed away the blood that dried on his neck from her earlier bite.

Naruto flinched hard and would have jolted away from her but he couldn't move.

She paused as she saw something odd about where she bit him. She ran her fingers on the side of his neck and saw that the typical bite marks that are seen from when she bit someone, were not there. It was extremely odd for it to heal so quickly. It wasn't because of the rapid healing but the fact that she had not seen him do anything to heal it.

She had seen medical jutsu heal such wounds at a fast rate but that relied on using chakra, which would give a green glow. And this boy would not have been the one to do it since he was far too young to have the knowledge or skill of such jutsu. She hummed in thought as she ran her fingers on his neck. She stopped when she saw the tension in his body grow. She removed her hand from his neck and moved it to his back as she chose to wash it next. "Forgive me, I was merely interested in how your neck had healed so quickly." she washed his back as he sat there.

Naruto felt the tension once again leaving him as he enjoyed the feeling of her washing his back and feeling clean after such a long time. He closed his eyes and let out a deep breath

Aurora finished his back and gently ran her fingers down his spine. She could feel his bones through the skin and made a mental note that he needed to be properly fed. "Turn around, please."

Once again, Naruto complied and glared at her

"I am sorry that I keep commanding you to obey me but I fear that you might run off if I don't." she picked the rag up again and began to wash his chest.

Naruto flinched at her touch but this time, it wasn't from fear or surprise but from how it tickled. After a minute of her washing his chest, he couldn't stop himself and laughed.

Aurora would have smiled at how he was showing some positive emotion but instead, it brought up anger. She wasn't angry that he was laughing or making some annoying noise, but from the fact that no sound came from his mouth, even though he had his mouth open, signifying that it was meant to be boisterous. Knowing what this could mean, she narrowed her eyes on the boy and her vision changed into one of faded color. His body changed to one of a blue hazy silhouette. But around his throat, wrists and ankles were red bands that would not be visible normally. But what really got her was the large red sigil that was on his chest. She was informed about a specific spell placed on the boy that she had planned on removing as soon as possible. But now….," she sighed as now was not the time for this. At least now she knew why he did not speak, or make any sound whatsoever. Her eyes then lowered to his stomach and saw another set of red, but this time it was a slightly different hue and it was inside his body rather than on.

Naruto had stopped laughing after a few seconds and saw that she was looking at him with an intense gaze. He shrunk in on himself as he thought that she was about to do something but after nothing happened, he looked at her again. He didn't understand her at all. The previous vampires he dealt with were much different from her. They would try and force him to do whatever they wanted. This one however only did it to get him into the bath and follow her. He still didn't trust her since he knew that at some point she would force him to do something he would hate or force him to allow her to bite him.

As he looked her over, he paused as his sight fell at her chest. He tilted his head before he brought his hand up

Aurora was brought out of her observations as she felt something press on her chest. She looked down to see his hand pressing in between her breasts. Right where the sword impaled her. She allowed him to continue and watched his facial expression.

Naruto could not understand how there was nothing there. Rather, there was nothing under the blood. He had seen swords impale people before and there was always a hole in them. But she had no hole there and he couldn't understand why. He even rubbed the blood away as if it would reveal the hole. After a few more seconds of this, he finally looked up to see that she was looking at him. He pulled his hand back and braced himself for something painful but instead, he felt her run her hand through his hair.

"I said this before, you do not need to fear me." seeing him look at her in confusion, she sighed. "When we finish here, I must inform you about something important. Something that you will most likely not enjoy hearing. But know that I do not wish you harm and I will do anything in my power to make this as comfortable as possible." seeing that he was still confused, she chose to just continue to wash him. "Come now, I must finish cleaning you before I get to myself."

The two continued bathing with one still a little confused about the other while the other felt despair at what she needed to inform him about.

The two were now inside Aurora's bedroom.

The room was much larger than the one that Naruto was in before with a larger bed that had an extravagant red canopy with gold highlights. There was a door that was slightly ajar that showed that it led to another bathroom that seemed much larger than a typical one. Opposite to the door that led into the room was a set of large glass doors that led to a balcony. Against the wall, next to the door that led to the bathroom was a vanity desk that was just as fancy looking as the rest of the room along with a cushioned short stool. next to the doors that led to the balcony was what looked to be an oak desk that had some papers neatly stacked on the side.

Naruto was standing by the closed door, while only wearing a towel around his body as he figured that this was Aurora's room and this made him nervous as he was not sure what she intended to do to him now that he was in here. He was looking around the room for any way for him to escape again and saw the only way was the balcony and the door.

"Come here, dear."

Naruto turned to look towards her, to see that she was sitting on the bed wearing a black nightie, and he moved towards her. He waited for what she was about to do and almost flailed when he was picked up and placed in the center of the bed. He was ready to fight against her if she was about to do what he thought she was going to do but all she did was have him sit there.

"Now, pet, what I am about to do may hurt you a bit but I believe that you would do better without them." Using one of her nails, she made a small cut on her right index finger before she brought it up to his throat. as she did this, she subtly froze him in place so so it would be easy for her.

Naruto did not know why he was frozen stiff and he was worried about what she was about to do to him since he had seen this be done before and the last time it happened, he lost something that he hadn't had for years. He shut his eyes as he felt her press her blood-tipped finger on his Adams apple and braced himself.

Aurora could see the red band around his neck appear to the naked eye and with some satisfaction, watched as it began to fade away. After a few seconds, she removed her finger and waited for him to open his eyes. "How are you feeling, dear?"

Naruto warily looked at her before he wiped the blood from his throat.

"Now, would you mind giving me your name? I would truly like to know the name of the new arrival under my care."

Once again, he was compelled to obey. And in a raspy hoarse voice, he spoke "Naruto…Uzumaki."

Naruto froze

His eyes widened as big as they could get and with shaky hands, he rubbed his throat. 'Did…..did I just…..' "Was…..that…my voice…..?" he couldn't believe it. He could speak! It had been so long since he had been able to actually speak words of his own. He almost forgot how it sounded.

"Yes, dear but from the sound of it, you shouldn't use it too much right now. Small sentences for now so that you can have your voice heal." she saw him slowly nod before she had to cut her finger once more. "Now, show me your arms, dear." she noticed that he was more compliant with her requests and smiled. She did the same thing to the bands that were on his wrists and ankles. Those were basically shackles that the master can use to keep him in place or drag him back. She didn't know who did these to the boy but if she had to guess, the one that did the one around his throat and limbs was one vampire while another did the sigil on his chest.

"...why…?"

Aurora looked at him to see that he was timidly asking and shaking, most likely from shock. "Because I do not agree on using such barbaric methods. None of my servants are chained down to me as they are free to stay or go as they wish. If they want to leave and go off and live their own life, then they are free to."

Naruto looked at his trembling hands as something he hadn't felt in a long time came to him. Hope. "...am…I ….free to…..go….too?"

She looked at the hopeful face of Naruto and it broke her heart that she had to destroy that. She cupped both his cheeks as she shook her head and saw the hopeful smile turn to dread. "I wish I could, dear Naruto, but there is a brand on you that I am unable to remove." She brought her left hand down from his cheek to undo the towel wrapped around his chest before pressing her hand on it. Channeling a bit of her magic into her fingertips, she caused the sigil to appear on his chest. "This sigil was made by someone who wanted to make sure that you would never be free. It binds you to whoever chants the master-servant pact, but it also makes it so that you are unable to leave your master's side. You must remain close by at all times, otherwise, you will begin to feel immense pain. And if you stay away for long, it could very well kill you. It also forces your body to obey any command the master gives even if you consciously resist or not under our hypnosis. Actually, it is set to force you to obey the command of any vampire that gives you a command. And the removal of the sigil will cause your entire body to shut down causing instant death."

Naruto felt his heart stop at each word she said. It wasn't fair. Ever since he was captured, he had wanted to escape these monsters and be free. But now it turns out that the one that placed this spell on his chest made it so he could never be free. He was bound to be the servant of a vampire for his life and he didn't have a say in the matter. Fresh tears fell down his face as the hopelessness of the situation weighed on him

Aurora felt her heart break at the sight of despair on the boy's face. She examined the sigil again and saw that there is a time frame for how long he can go without a master if the previous one broke off the pact. Based on how much magic was stored, he could last, at most, two days. And transferring ownership gave a pseudo attachment between the two. It is why the spell on him activated after a certain amount of time when he escaped.

She made a vow to herself that she would find out who placed this sigil on the boy, and she would rip their head off. This sort of thing was beyond barbaric and to do it to a child was unforgivable. They would suffer, she would make sure of that.

But for now…she hugged the boy as he cried once more. "I am sorry that I must tell you of this but I promise you that I will take care of you, from now on. You are my pet and as such I shall care for you now and forever. She looked down at him and cupped his cheek. "I promise you, Naruto Uzumaki, you will not suffer anymore. And I shall do all in my power to grant you as much freedom as I can."

Naruto didn't care anymore. His freedom was taken from him and this was the first vampire that had shown him kindness. He nodded as he melted into her hug. Why fight anymore? If she was as kind as she had been all this time, why should he go against her? 'Please let her be telling the truth.'

She ran her hand through his hair as she petted him. "Rest now, dear. And shed the painful memories that you have plaguing your dreams. I shall give you enough happiness to wash all the pain away." she channeled some of her magic into her hand and put him into a restful sleep.

Naruto was now forever bound to Aurora and after centuries, by her own will, she was bound to another. A young boy named Naruto Uzumaki.

All this as the sun rose and she sat there holding him.

End of chapter

I'm making Aurora a very ancient vampire. One that has lost the weakness of sunlight

Also, as an ancient vampire, I figured that she would no longer care about modesty, especially in her own home. This does not mean I am making her a loose woman, I just think that she would have stopped caring about some things since she will outlive many that would see her in such a state. But again, she is in her own home.

Ok, now I may be insinuating some very inappropriate actions happening but I will say that nothing sexual of such a nature will be seen here. Insinuated and only insinuated. Honestly bugs the hell out of me writing about them but to make the story I want, I have to.

Adding magic. Vampiric magic and as such some of the powers seen in other vampire movies. Though if you have a suggestion about the kind of abilities she can have, then let me know in a review

There will be more flashbacks about the time between Naruto's capture and his subsequent time with vampires. His memory shown here was more jumbled up and mixed between a few memories. It will become clearer later on

A reminder that Naruto is 8. So he isn't going to have that much of a backbone when it comes to things. Also, he is not trained as a shinobi. Never got the chance to even enter the academy

Had the random thought of adding other monsters but I don't know.

Flames will be ignored.
