RED MOON


X


Water dripped from the ceiling. The echoes hitting the walls in the compass of the soft tune playing somewhere in the building. No sound was heard but the melody of a violin playing a sad song. Sound traveled fast to the ears of certain sleeping girl, that's when jaded eyes snapped open.

Sakura sat and looked around to find she was in some kind of library that strangely had a futon in which she was seated currently. She stood up and tried to remember how she got in here but all she could remember was the face of Neji hovering over her.

'So Neji brought me here?' Sakura thought stretching while standing up. Not quite believing her hypothesis but having one was better than having non.

Green eyes scanned the room to find she was alone. A slender hand combed pink locks behind her ear and suddenly the soft music that awakened her started once again. This time, the melody was faster with a feeling of suspense, suddenly the music exploded and the notes flew with such speed and accuracy that it made her heart give a volt of something that she couldn't quite describe

"I-Its beautiful"

Her curiosity was unbaring and without notice, her legs started to move out of her room into the dark hallway.

Her eyes squinted as she was trying to see further than her nose but with no avail so she listened carefully to the song and followed her ears which was difficult thanks to the echoes.

Sakura turned right then left followed straight and then left again until she was in front of a big woodened door. The music stopped and for a second her heart jumped out of fear but then the music played again this time sweet and slow.

Inner Sakura smiled and gave her courage to open the door, which she hesitated at first, but then her hand pushed harder and pink locks popped into the room.

"I-Itachi" She managed to choke out.

Red Sharingan eyes turned to look at her as the music completely stopped.


Neji and Shikamaru stood in a clearing facing each other with fierce eyes. Each of them knew this battle was pointless somewhere hidden in their minds told them it was true but their ego didn't let them go anywhere without killing each other first.

"So pretty-boy are you going to start or are you going to muse over your hair a little longer?" Shikamaru taunted.

"Say what you want now Nara because where you are going you wont be able to talk that much"

Shikamaru smirked as he took out a kunai and positioned himself in a battle stance. To tell the truth, he never attacked first or was the one to throw weapons without it being a purpose for it. In fact he always avoided fights so he was surprised with himself to actually participate so openly in this one.

'This is going to be troublesome'

Neji also positioned himself and activated his Byakuugan. He was going to juunken him to death. It was true he took care of his hair a little more than a normal man would but who can blame him for trying to look decent?

'You will regret the day you made fun of my hair Nara'

Shikamaru watched the Hyuuga intently, analyzing his every detail. His mind was thinking of a thousand and one strategies to defeat the Hyuuga.

'Ok…we have here the prodigy of the Hyuuga clan with vision of 355 degrees of vision and uses Juunken and Kaiten one for attack and the other one for the "absolute" defence. He can close my chakra points so is better to stay away from close hand to hand combat. Which is actually good, my Kagemane (did I write it correctly?) is better with some distance'

Shikamaru smirked.


Kai woke up, his eyes scanned the area he was currently in and found that he was in some kind of chamber, dark and with no windows. A drop fell on his nose and he looked up to see another one falling too. Kai didn't know where he was, the last he remembered was some man approaching the camp and weird red eyes with spinning commas. Nothing more.

Mahogany eyes saw the sleeping form of Nami just a few steps away from him. Kai decided to walk over and wake her up but as soon as he took one step he found out he was chained to the wall by the arms and noticed Nami was too but just by one foot.

"How are we supposed to get out?"

"Boy, you are not supposed to get out"

A blue skinned man appeared before his eyes. Then he remembered that this man was the one who almost killed Sakura. He wore bandages in his head and his right arm was wrapped in a bandage that was around his neck lifting his limp arm slightly.

"Why am I here?"

"I am the only one who makes the questions you little runt"

Kai glared at him and tried to punch him but as we said before he was chained so he only conquered hurting himself. Blood oozed from his wrists as greeted teeth spat Kisame's foot.

Cold laughter filled his ears and made him widen his eyes in fear. His trembling legs recoiling from the apparently mad man in front of him. A lightening like speed hand circled around his thin neck and a monstrous strength blocked his way into getting oxygen.

"Not so brave are we now"

Kai looked at him terrified and his hands tried to pry them off his neck but with no avail. His lungs ached and he was starting to see dark spots. 'I am dying…I don't want to die…' he thought as he felt his arms getting heavier by the minute.

'I won't die!' Kai's eyes shone with white light as well as his mouth. His once pale skin was now black and his hands grew some kind of claws, which sunk into the blue one of Kisame.

"What the heck!"


Sasuke was exasperated at first but then got angry. His two only hopes were about to fight as Sakura had been kidnapped by his evil older brother. This was not right someone had to listen to him and go to her rescue, as he was no longer able to fight no one. (Remember he is a spirit)

"Ok then, if they won't notice her absence then I will tell them and I don't care if I scare them to death"

His eyes shined with a mischievous glint and his hands glowed red with fire.

"This is not going to be pretty…for them that is"
