Hey guys and welcome back to another chapter of Demonic Love. First off, the reviews.

I want to say thanks again to Guest (Who's name I shall never know) about the advise you gave me. Hopefully made it easier to read with the speech. I've also done some senses but not much. It's only because I've never done that much of it before so I hope you bare with me. Like it says in my profile, I never intended to post any of my stories up, so it was all for me to read. But now that I have people who read this now, I've got to try harder. So I just ask for patience.

.S - Sorry to make you feel bad but that was the reaction I was hoping for. As for them becoming friends. You'll have to wait and see.

Celestialfae - You'll find out soon enough.

Anyway, like always, I apologise in advance for grammar mistakes, repetitiveness and poor writing. And I hope you enjoy.

I don't own Naruto or it's characters. I'm just using them for the story. And any OCs are mine.


Hiramatsu Tenten was sitting on a park bench, her legs tucked up to her chest, her arms wrapped around them and was still wearing her hakama kimono. The pleasent summer breeze made her her bangs sway, and it felt nice on her skin. But even the wind of summer couldn't lift the brunette's spirits. Her thoughts would bring her back to the sparring match back at school and just from that, her eyes would begin to sting.

I'm pathetic the brunette thought to herself.

She couldn't believe that she had lost control of herself and let her emotions get the better of her. She even spoke out her true feelings which she had locked away. But she couldn't have helped it. Seeing Haruno Sakura smiling at her with that cocky grin of her's, just made Tenten's blood boil and she only saw red. She could remember that she only swung in rage and most of the fight was slightly fuzzy in her head, but the by the time it had finally become clear, she was on the floor and she knew instantly that she had lost the match.

She didn't know how long she had been sitting there, but when she looked up, the sky was a deep orange. Club activities, as well as school, would probably be over by now and Tenten let out a sigh. In her haste of getting out of school, she had left her schoolbag and her uniform, back at the gymnasium. It was embarrassing, but she would just have to walk home wearing her hakama kimono.

"Are you okay miss?" a voice spoke to her.

Tenten looked to her left and standing there was a young man, maybe in his late twenties if she had to guess, in a police uniform. Thanks to the sunset, the normal blue uniform that he was wearing had turned into dark purple. The police officer looked at the brunette with an worried expression. He must of saw Tenten's red puffy eyes and tear stained face and came over to see what was up. She smiled at the man. Deep down, the girl wanted to cry some more but she could do that in her house. That way she won't have to be even more embarrassed than she was now.

"I'm fine," she replied. "Thanks for asking."

"It's no problem," the man said with a smile. "It's my job after all." He then looked at the orange sky above. It's hue started to get darker, as night slowly started to take over the sky.

"It looks like it will get dark soon," the officer continued. Then he turned his gaze back to Tenten. "Why don't I escort you back home? I don't want a girl going home alone at this time at night by themselves."

Saying that, the officer extended his hand out to Tenten, and she looked from his caring smile to the outstretched hand that was being offered to her. The brunette thought for a moment, wondering if she should just walk home by herself. She can easily take care of herself if someone were to assault her. But she knew that the state that she was in now, she couldn't be bothered dealing with that, in this moment of time.

Coming to that conclusion, she gave the officer a nod and then reached her own hand out. But, as the tips of her fingers touched the man's hand, she instantly stopped, a chill crawling down her spine. Her blood suddenly went cold, like she had been pushed into a freezer. What was this sudden feeling that just came over her? For some reason, her instincts were telling her to run as far away as possible.

When she looked up, gazing back into the man's face, her heart had started to pound, hard. The smile on the man's face, as he waited for Tenten to grasp his hand, looked like any kind smile. But for the brunette, that smile held something more. She didn't know what it was, but it caused her to have a cold sweat. Quickly she retracted his hand, and then stood up.

"I'm alright actually," she said, a forced smile on her face. She needed to get away from the man in front of her. Now. "I can take of myself on the way. Thank you very much for the offer, but I must be going." She gave the man a bow and turned on her heel and started to make her home.

GRAB!

But she was only able to take a step, before a hand had grasped her upper arm. Her heart pounded much harder from the contact, her pupils growing smaller. Clearing the lump that had formed in her throat, Tenten slowly turned her head around, another forced smile on her face. But when she faced the man, her eyes widened in fear, whatever she was going to say was caught in her throat. The kind eyes and smile that the police officer had only moments ago, had completely vanished. Instead, it was a sharp gaze and a crooked, wicked smile that was presented to her now.

The police officer let a tired sigh. "What a troublesome girl you are," he said. "You should have just came with me, like a good little girl."

The man then tighten his grip like a vice and the brunette winced from the sudden pain. It felt like the bones in her arm were going to break. His strength felt inhuman and she knew then that she seriously had to get away from this person. With that action in mind, Tenten gathered whatever courage she had, ignoring the fear that was within her, cocked her free arm back and then punched the man in the face. Again, she winced, and brought her hand back. It felt like she just punched a wall made of concrete

A low menacing chuckle, made Tenten's gaze turn back to the officer. His face was turned to the side thanks to the brunette's punch, and when he turned his face back, his sharp gaze bore threw Tenten's grey eyes, making the girl cower in fear. With his wicked grin planted on his face, he also raised his free hand and swung it upon Tenten, backhanding her, and the girl hit the ground like a ton of bricks.

"That was a big mistake bitch," said the man, as Tenten slowly raised herself until she was sitting on the floor.

Her cheek was aching, and she could feel the taste of iron in her mouth. When she felt something dribbling, from her mouth to her chin, she wiped it with the back of her hand and she went wide eyed. Blood. Her blood. That was what she could feel inside her mouth. I huge chill went down the girl's spine, shock and fear starting to make Tenten's body shake uncontrollably.

"Now that it has come to this," the man spoke up. Fearfully, the brunette turned her grey pools toward the man's gaze. Her fear intensified as she gazed into the those deadly sharp eyes. "I have no choice but to do this here." The corrupt officer began to chuckle once more. "Watch carefully now, because this is the last thing you'll ever see."

After those words, the man began to growl. As he did, his skin colour suddenly turn into a bright white. The sound of his bones breaking and then mending themselves could be heard, his fingers, arms and legs growing longer. His finger nails broke off and were replaced with sharp, longer ones which were a length of a ruler. The uniform that he was wearing was torn off, as his muscles started to bulge and grow. And from his back, four, spider-like appendages came out, the tips looking sharp like knives. Finally, his sharp eyes suddenly disappeared and his white sclera turned blood red, and at that point Tenten was speechless.

What's... going on? Tenten asked in her mind, looking at the monstrosity that used to be a human. The thing before her began to grin, showing off it's sharpened teeth, and chuckled. The brunette's heart was now going into overdrive. Was she... going to die? Was this thing going to kill her? She got the answer to that as the white-skinned monster slowly started to make it's way toward her.

No... I don't want to die. I don't want to die! Tenten slowly started to shuffle backwards. Tears had started to fall from her eyes. I don't want to die... I don't want to die. No. Stay away. Stay way from me! And then, for the first time that Tenten could remember, she let a high pitch scream, "NOOOOO!" and then stood up, albeit clumsly, and began to run in the other direction. She hoped maybe if she got to somewhere public, then maybe it would stop chasing her.

But then, she suddenly felt a shadow go over the top of her head and in the next moment, the monster, that she tried to escape from, dropped down in front of her. She stopped, and took a step back. Before she could run in the other direction, the monster opened it's mouth and something green flew from within it, heading straight for the brunette. It hit the girl's mouth sticking to it, and before she could process what was going on, the monster lunged at her.

She hit the ground on her back, and It quickly straddled her, grasping the brunette's wrists and placing them above her head. She began to struggle, but it was useless. The monster's strength was too strong and she couldn't scream because of what was on her mouth. The white-skinned fiend's face moved closer to Tenten's. She could feel it's hot breath on her skin and she turned her head away.

"You know," the monster began, "you look pretty cute up close." It opened it's mouth and two, long green tongues came out. The long muscles began to explore the girl's face and neck. The tongue was cold and slimy, and it made Tenten shiver.

"And you taste nice too, hehehe." he continued, retracting his tongue back. "I'm going to enjoy devouring you..."

A gasped escaped from the girl's muffled mouth and, with wide eyes, looked back at the monster, only to see it's mouth split apart into four. Each part had sharp teeth that looked like it could crunch anything in an instant with ease.

Don't tell me thought Tenten. It's going to eat me?

"Now then," the monster spoke. "I wanted to do this somewhere quiet and isolated, so that I could enjoy my meal. But thanks to you, I won't get that chance. So now, I have to rush."

Drool and saliva began to drip from the monster's open jaw and they landed on the girl's face. But she didn't flinch from it, didn't turn away. She just kept staring at the parted mouth full of teeth. Tears, she didn't know that she was shedding, ran down the side of her face and hit the floor. But even though she was crying, she felt calm.

No. Not calm. It was just that she had given up. Her mouth was gagged with strange gunk, so she couldn't speak, let alone scream. Her hands were restrained above her head and the monster was straddling her, so she couldn't even move. So, what was the point of struggling now?

Knowing that she was going to die, time seemed to slow down for her and during it, there were two things that the brunette regretted. One of them being Hinata. She never told her how much the ravenette meant to her. How she was the bright light, in Tenten's dark world. She never told her she loved her. It wasn't love in that sort of way, but more of a sisterly love. Tenten considered Hinata to be her younger sister, who used to be shy and timid and now who was down right clumsy. But she loved both sides of her.

The other was Haruno Sakura. She wanted to apologise to her for acting like a idiot. The brunette found it a little funny. When the pink haired girl first came to the school, she couldn't stand her. She was cold, arrogant, and she brushed anyone off who would try and be nice to her. And when the same thing happened to Hinata, Tenten, by then, wanted to punch the living daylights out of her. But then, she changed. She didn't know when it happened, but when the younger girl had apologised to her class, to her as well, the pinkette had become kinder, more gentle. Tenten had to admit that she was a little jealous of the girl, but she would never say it out loud.

And when it came to the fight between her and the pinkette, for Hinata, she really wanted to slap herself in the face. Telling her to give Hinata back was just the possessive side of being a big sister. It was true that she would be lonely and she knew that her life wouldn't be the same without Hinata by her side. But... she was growing up. She was growing up so much, to the point where the ravenette was now helping out someone else, and was relying on her less and less. And as a big sister, she couldn't be more proud of what the girl was becoming.

Besides, Haruno was strong, their fight in the gymnasium proving that. Maybe her dying wouldn't be so bad, when the ravenette had someone else who could take care of her.

"Oh, you're not going to struggle any more?"

Tenten was then brought back to the present. She looked into the mouth that would devour her, and the light in the brunette's eyes faded, until they became dull. She was still there, but she just accepted her fate and was now waiting for that moment.

"Well then," the monster said. "Itadakimasu!" Giving thanks to it's food, the white fiend launched itself to bite Tenten's head off.

Goodbye Hinata. she thought sadly. And goodbye, Haruno... I'm sorry.

When the monster's mouth was just about to clamp down on Tenten's face, something unexpected happened. A foot suddenly came into her line of sight and said foot had kicked the white monster square in it's face. And before she knew it, a huge weight was lifted off of her as the monster was flung backwards like a rag doll. The girl's dull eyes soon found light in them once more and she quickly sat up, wondering who's foot that belonged to.

Her eyes widened. The person in front of her had their back turned to her. But with the sight of pink hair that was swaying in the breeze, she couldn't help but be surprised. Haruno Sakura. She was standing in between her and the white-skinned monster. She was standing tall and firm. Unafraid of the monster that was before her, her emerald gaze strong.

"TENTEN!" A very familiar voice cried out the brunette's name and she turned her head toward the sound.

Hinata! Tenten said in her thoughts, also surprised to see her here as well.

The ravenette, after having gotten to the brunette, knelt down by her side. "Are you alright?" she asked, voice full of concern and worry. She wanted to say that she was fine but realized she still couldn't, and having noticed it herself, Hinata reached out and grasped the gunk on the girl's mouth and, after few seconds, managed to pull the thing off and threw it away.

Finally able to breathe again through her mouth, Tenten began to cough. Some of the gunk had gotten into her mouth and she tried getting it out. "I'm fine now," she said when she finished. She then turned her gaze to her best friend. "What are you-" she stopped herself. She realized now wasn't the time to ask. "Never mind, we need to get out of here now before that thing attacks us!"

But despite how worried she was, Hinata was the complete opposite. She was smiling and she looked calm, like none of what was going on was real. "It's alright Tenten," she told her in a reassuring voice.

The brunette wanted ask her what part it was alright, but before she could voice it, the white-skinned fiend began to speak. It's voice still sent a shiver down the girl's spine as she and Hinata turned to look. The monster wasn't speaking to Tenten, but to the pinkette instead.

"And who the hell are you?" it growled. It's face was red, probably from the kick it received before. "You disturbed me in the middle of my meal."

"Who am I?" the pinkette repeated. "I am..." she started, raising her left arm out. In the next moment, it suddenly combusted into black flames. Her eyes widened and she began to worry about he arm, but like it arrived, her worry vanished. The black flames wrapped around the girl's arm then travelled to the front of her palm and then started to take shape. Grasping it, the black flames dissipated, leaving behind a long weapon.

A scythe. Tenten couldn't help but be intimidated by the thing. It looked heavy to hold, even with two hands, but when the girl twirled it above her head and swung it to the side like it weighed nothing, a question had appeared in Tenten's mind. Who the hell was Haruno Sakura?

"Your destruction!" roared Haruno, finishing her sentence from before.

The question could wait. Right now, it didn't matter. She didn't know why, but seeing the younger girl in front of her, with her confidence and hardened gaze, Tenten knew that she was safe. And at the moment, that was all she cared about.
