Chapter Five: A Vicious Partner at the Dance of the Dead

Hangovers seem to last forever and make you feel terrible. You don't want to do anything and you feel drained of energy. This is how Sakura felt when she woke up on the roof. Feeling nauseated and helpless, Sakura laid on the cement covered roof until she heard the last bell ring. She hoped that the teachers wouldn't call her mother telling her that she had missed half of her classes. If they did, she would be in more trouble than ever.

Sakura sat there for a minute, thinking about how bad she felt and the events that had just happened. The events made her feel paralyzed and somewhat shocked. Her fingers moved up her back, feeling for the feathers that were once there. Instead of feathered wings, she found two deep cuts in her back. Strangely, her shirt wasn't torn from the wings. They weren't bleeding or hurting.

A shiver went up her spine as she sat there. Nothing seemed right. Another aura rushed through her system. It was darker and deeper than normal vampiric aura. She quickly stood up and stumbled to the door. As soon as she peeled it open, she ran out of the door and through the halls of the school.

The aura didn't cease until she had made it completely out of the school. As she walked home a boy seemed to be following her. She looked at him from the corner of her eye. He was tall with short mousy hair. A little dog followed him. It was strange how he followed her, acting like he was trying to protect her. She stopped at her house and finally looked over.

She sighed when she watched him walk into the house across from hers. The house was big and covered with vines. It looked somewhat enchanted, yet very eerie. The bricks of the house were discolored and had moss growing around them. An old oak sat in front of the house. It was just as haunting as the house but it added a lighted mood. A monolithic statue stood at the edge of the gate that led into the house. The statue looked like a worn, broken angel. It seemed medieval. As the boy entered the house, his back arched a bit then he slammed the door, hiding himself from the world.

"Sakura calm down. Don't be paranoid about everything," she told herself over and over again. Looking at the door the boy had entered one last time made her feel better. After a run in with vampires, she wasn't sure what else was out there.

Wondering through the earth,

Lost to the better half of you

Will you hunt tonight?

Dine by the cursed moonlight

Or Settle your battles with a vicious fight to the death?

Just remember,

The full moon was never your friend

Someday soon,

It may lead to your end.

Entering the house was the worst paranoia of all, always feeling like her parents were going to jump out and ask, "WHERE WERE YOU?" She smiled as she greeted her mother and talked a bit. There was no arguments just, "How was your day?" which ended with a "Good, kinda boring" from Sakura.

The rest of the night seemed like a blur due to Sakura thinking nonstop about Sasuke and the other vampires. She wanted to know all about them and if the dream she had at the park was real or just fiction. The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to know. It was like a never resting memory, forever to haunt her in thought and imagination. When she finally stopped thinking about it, she was already asleep and dreamed it.

The next morning when she woke up, she didn't hurry to get to school. While getting ready, she didn't try to impress anyone, just put her hair up in a ponytail and put on her uniform. The walk to school that day took longer than the past day. A sigh escaped her lips. She wasn't ready for home base. She made a plan in her head. If Hinata was there, she would sit with her and talk about the project. If not, she would sit in a seat, scooted away from Naruto.

When she finally arrived at the school or hell, as she would like to call it, she looked in the classroom. Naruto was there and lucky for Sakura, so was Hinata. Also when she looked in, she saw the boy from across the street. He wasn't here yesterday, She thought. He seemed to keep himself alone from everyone except the tomboyish girl who he seemed to hang out with. The tomboy, also known as Tenten, was talking about training and the latest episode of an anime about warriors.

Sakura quickly made her way to Hinata. Sadly though, Hinata was sitting beside the beast who had watched as Ino tried to kill her, otherwise known as Neji. She decided to ignore him and just talk to Hinata. "Hey Hina, I say we get started on our project," Sakura smiled happily, holding out her folder.

"W-well N-Neji-sama s-says he wants me h-here to help hi-," Hinata was cut off with Sakura's words.

"Well, I'm sure he wouldn't mind. I mean, you're not his slave," Sakura said sarcastically but the looks that Neji and Hinata gave each other and the glare that Neji gave to her, only inferred her conclusion, "Well, 'Neji-sama' what do you need help with anyway?" Sakura stared at him. For some reason she wasn't scared by this certain vampire.

"She needs to finish bandaging my arm," Neji said, pointing down with his eyes, "This is the third time she has tried." The bandages were loose and everywhere. It was obvious that Hinata didn't know proper technique for bandaging anything.

"Hinata get up, I'll do it. You just help me start on the project by talking to me so we can make a plan," Hinata tried to argue with Sakura's comments but was utterly defeated. The two traded seats and Sakura examined the damage on Neji's arm. It was just cut and bled a little. She had had practice bandaging things, mainly herself, when she was suicidal.

Years ago, when Sakura's parents first thought she was crazy, she would cut herself daily to let out her anger on them. She would listen to hardcore rock to heavy metal and sit in her room, writing all day, (That's how most of her poems were created). They began to blame her mental health and willingness to kill herself on the music she listened to and all the poems she wrote. Every time they began their impractical accusations, she would try to explain to them how the music actually healed her inner wounds; they threw the thought aside and laughed. They were too willing to blame something else on their child's behavior than their parenting.

Hinata looked over Sakura as she began to bandage the arm, studying the form and movement of the hands. "And try to get it tight right around in here or it will start to droop or sag," Sakura explained, pointing to Neji's arm. Hinata nodded and smiled. Neji sat there, glaring at the girl who had told his slave to take a break. "Neji you should be grateful instead of sitting there being grumpy," Sakura said with a smile, her hands finally stopped near the elbow. She admired her work with a soft smile and 'you better thank me' look on her face.

Just as Hinata and Sakura began to talk about the project, Kakashi walked into the room. He waited as students went to their assigned seats and began to talk. "I have decided to change your class assignment. Instead of a partnered project, each and every one of you will write a poem or a story, which ever you are better at, and share a bit about your life to the class. When you decide to share a bit of your life, you can make a collage, write a story, or bring in something dear and precious to you. The object you bring in has to have some meaning. You will share this to the class and it will count three times on your report end of semester grade," Kakashi smiled, "That is all. From now until the rest of the class period, you may talk or work on your poem or story."

The glass groaned in procession. A few people pulled out sheets of paper and began. Some sat there looking blank or sat there panicking about the assignment while others began to talk about how much they already hated the class. Naruto looked over Sakura's shoulder as she began to write. She tried not to notice but he began to creep closer until they were barely touching.

"You smell good," Naruto whispered, "Like a fragrance between cherries and sweet honey blossoms." Sakura ignored the comment.

"Your not going to tell anyone what happened yesterday, are you?" he asked her, putting a hand on her back. His hand danced around the gouges in her shoulder blades. She swatted him away. "Well, are you?" he asked, teasing her.

"Get your hand off me," she said as he came closer to the chain on her ruby. Her voice sounded like a low growl. He backed up very slowly, wondering what was going to happen next. She concentrated on her work until Naruto finally got up and went to talk to some other guys. When he left, she sighed and laid her head on her desk. Closing her eyes, she began to breath in deeply.

"Sakura-chan, wake up! You slept through lunch," Hinata gently shook the limp body of her friend, "Its time for gym. You wouldn't want to miss it today too!" Sakura opened her eyes.

"Hina, what period is it?" Sakura asked groggily. As soon as she stood up, Hinata pulled her out of the classroom.

"Its forth period. You also missed study hall," Hinata said, pulled Sakura through the halls, "Naruto-kun told me to come and wake you. Sakura stopped abruptly.

"Are you his slave too?" Sakura's voice changed to anger. Hinata didn't answer. "Hinata! Who don't you serve?"

Hinata looked at the ground. "I don't serve anyone else but him and Neji-sama. I'm more in debt to Neji than enslaved."

"That's a lie," Sakura looked at her, with compassion but sometimes to show compassion, you also have to hint out a bit of anger.

"Sakura, I hope in due time I can tell you everything but for now, please drop it so we can hurry and get to gym!" Hinata whined. Sakura knew that this was a painful subject for Hinata but didn't know how to approach it. She answered Hinata's pleas and walked somewhat willingly to gym.

When they arrived, they were ordered to sit on the bleachers. The gym was big and divided by a black line. On one side, the girls sat and on the other side, the guys sat. The courts were also split in half. The teacher allowed the girls to go in the locker room to change, one by one. Sakura was chosen last. The teacher gave her the uniform and everything that she need. "Nice you decided to join us today instead of skip class. You should have been here yesterday so you wouldn't have to hold up the class," she teacher immediately commented.

Sakura walked into a small locker room. It was cold and damp. It smelled of sweat and body products. Then she looked at the uniform. It was nothing but a pair of shorts and a tank top. "What kind of school promotes sexual images?" she asked herself, thinking about the guys that would end up staring at the girls as they played sports. She looked at herself in the mirror. "Well isn't this just dandy," Sakura said, scowling at the pale, scantly clothed figure in front of the mirror.

"HARUNO! HURRY UP IN THERE!" yelled the teacher. Sakura walked out of the locker room, feeling even colder and more embarrassed. Just as she thought, the guys on the other side of the gym were staring and pointing. She tried to cover herself a bit with her hands but nothing worked. Instead, she went up onto the bleachers and hid behind Hinata. Hinata happened to be lucky with her uniform. It was a longer pair of shorts and a tee-shirt.

"Today, we are playing volleyball. Does everyone remember who I partnered them up with?" the students shook their head yes and the teacher kept talking, "Good. Haruno, since you decided to ditch, you will be partnered up with Tenten. You two are up first. Yakamaka Ino and Sori Autumn, you go up against them." The four girls walked down to the oddly set up court.

They began to stretch and set up a bit. Sakura looked at Tenten and tried to make conversation. "So, you skipped yesterday too?" Sakura asked. Tenten glared at her.

"No, I had a doctor appointment," Tenten looked evil with the way she talked. Sakura looked at Tenten's body and compared it with hers. Tenten was pure muscle while Sakura was nothing but skin and bones.

"Listen, you better not make me look bad. The only reason me and you are partner is because you skipped," Tenten said as she stretched a little bit more, "Can you even play volleyball?"

"Before you go and think I'm some weak competitor, you better cool your attitude. I didn't skip, I more of, passed out. You know what, I think I'm gonna end up beating you at your own game. Prepared to be shown up," Sakura smirked. She finished her stretches and began to step up for a serve. Tenten smirked, she admired Sakura's attitude. Tenten went into defense position and got herself ready.

"How about we work as team and show them up instead?" Tenten smirked.

"Sounds alright with me. Ya ready?" Tenten nodded her head and Sakura served the first ball. The serve was so strong; it knocked Autumn off her feet as she tried to hit it back. Tenten came up from the back and spiked it into the ground. One point for their team and a sad look graced Autumn's face.

This became routine as they began to score more points. In the end, Team Tenten/Sakura ended up with only three more points than Team Ino/Autumn. They returned to the bench and started talking. Hinata's team was up verses an unknown team. Tenten sat beside Sakura and began to talk.

"Have you ever been on a volleyball team?" Tenten asked her.

"No why?" Sakura gave a questioning look. No one had ever asked her such a question. She didn't think she was that good at the sport. Maybe fair but not good.

"Well, the way you handled yourself. And yea, you showed me up. Who would have thought, I got shown up by a puny looking girl. No offense," Tenten smiled. Sakura laughed a bit and smiled along with her. "Wait, aren't you the girl who just moved here?" she asked. Sakura nodded her head.

"I thought I had seen you from somewhere," Tenten smiled, "I think we might become very good friends." Sakura smiled. Her and Tenten clasped their hands together in some sort of triumphant handshake.

Monday came quicker than anyone would have expected. That morning in home base, everyone hustled to finish their projects and poems. No one had time to talk to anyone else. They were too busy making sure that the last few arrangements and checks. This was their first big grade.

The arrival of their teacher, Kakashi was a dreaded one. As soon as everyone settled down, Kakashi began to call people to the front. Unfortunately, Sakura was first on his list of name. She walked silently up to the front of the class.

"For my project, I thought I would share my poem first then let you come up with a conclusion. After that, I will share with you my most valuable object," Sakura took out a piece of paper and took in a deep breath,

"We walked fast

Along the courtyards

We sung the tune of blood

And shared the drink of life.

I shared mine,

And you drank to much

You lend me yours but I wouldn't drink such

For the fall from grace

Would leave me an empty space

And things would be so surreal.

You dined on my neck.

You didn't pay the bill

You took all and left me nil.

How will I ever heal?"

Sakura took in a deep breath and began to explain the poem. "One night, I had a drink that someone I killed me in my wedding dress. The drink of live is a fancy saying for blood. Now I shall let you all into my little secret," Sakura put the poem down and pulled a book out of her bag, "Months ago, I was hidden in darkness and forced into madness. No one believed me so began not to believe myself. I believed and still do, that there are creatures among us. Vampires, werewolves and other creatures. During that period, I wrote a book. It was published and many of you may know it. It is titled, Black Cherry Blossoms."

A few people in the room gasped, others sat there in awe. One girl stood up and yelled, "You should help us with the Halloween Dance!" The class joined in together. And with that, Sakura was now an honorary member of the school dance club.

As September ended, Sakura began to realize how important the Halloween dance seemed to be. Everyone in the school looked forward to dance. Compared to Prom, it was second. Soon she found out why the committee had chosen her for help. They thought she was creepy and dark. They told her, "Just be yourself. We'll help get everything and decorate. You just plan." Now the whole school's dance was on her shoulders.

Tenten and Hinata offered their help with planning and decoration. This helped Sakura greatly. Every other night, Tenten and Sakura (sometimes Hinata if Neji would let her), met up at a coffee shop and planned. Soon they came up with the name of the dance, "The Bone Palace Masquerade Ball." The theme would be a dead royalty is hosting a masquerade ball for all the ghosts, ghouls, vampires, and creatures. The dress code, for a girl was a mask with a beautiful dress (hopefully something that looks like what you would wear to a ball) and for the guys, a mask and a tuxedo. On each ticket would be a golden seal and a little skull. It would have lace and ribbons on it.

The committee had voted Sakura as the Bone Palace princess and a boy named Kiba for the prince. Kiba just happened to be the same boy who lived across the street from Sakura. From what Sakura spoken with Kiba, she learned he was a bit cold to people but he was also a class clown. In other words, he was a smartass. Hinata and Tenten began work on Sakura's dress immediately while all the others worked hard on Kiba's costume.

It seemed like everyone was intent on making her "prince" look better than her. After a little talk with Hinata and Tenten she figured out why.

One night they decided to finish up the dress at Tenten's house. Sakura stood on a pedestal while Hinata was working on the upper area of the dress, fitting it up for Sakura. Tenten sat on the bed helping sew up a shawl for her dress. They had decided on a very deep crimson color for the dress. It ended up being strapless with ribbons and lace stringing out everywhere. The dress looked like it was made for royalty.

Hinata began to sew the last ribbon around Sakura's waist when she happened to jab the needle into her side. Sakura jumped up and screamed, "OW!" Tenten giggled a bit.

"Sakura, no need to scream," Tenten giggled, "At least you have us working with you." Tenten pulled the needle from her side and looked at it. Sakura looked at them two for a second and sighed.

"I have a question. Why aren't anyone but you and Hinata helping me out? I mean it seems like everyone is obsessed with that Kiba boy," Sakura crossed her arms and Hinata swatted them away.

"Oh that's right, no one has told you have they?" Hinata asked, giving Sakura a look that made her feel stupid.

"Told me what?" Sakura began to grow annoyed and started to feel left out. Tenten sighed.

"His family is rich and very prestigious. People naturally suck up to him and do whatever he wants. His family decides who he can marry and who he has to stay away from. Right now, they are trying to find him a wife," Tenten explained, "Sadly though, the only reason people want to even be with him is for money."

Sakura jumped off the pedestal and straightened out her dress. "Well if he is so rich, how come he lives right across the street from me?" her face twitched a bit. She hated liars and hoped he wasn't one.

"He does?" Tenten asked somewhat hopefully.

"Yep, in the two story brick house, you know, the old one," Sakura began to talk off the dress and put on her black jeans and a green hoodie. She kept the hood up, covering half of her face and left her pink hair over one shoulder. Then she sat on the bed and laced up her vans. Tenten on the other hand, leaned against the door with her finger on her chin. A smirk emerged on her face as she looked over to Hinata who happened to be sitting on the floor in front of Sakura.

"That's not right; he lives in Oakwood Isle, the mansion that is right across from the ocean. Sakura, no one is supposed to live in the house across from yours. There are many stories about what goes on in that house," Hinata shivered as she recalled the entire spine chilling tells about the house.

"There is? Why don't you tell me the most common one?" Sakura was enthralled by her fascination with horror stories and the tales that could make anyone be chilled to the bone.

"Well, one story, ugh I hate this story. People say that a few years back a family moved into the house. Their oldest daughter became mentally ill and they had no idea why. They began to send her to therapy and found out that she would tell them strange tells of a wolf coming into her room at night," Tenten stopped as she saw Sakura's face grow pale. Sakura motioned for her to keep going, even though it reminded her of Sasuke.

"Well she kept going to the sessions until one day, she seemed perfectly fine. People say that the wolf had died or she had fallen in love. Well one night, she had a mental relapse and set the house on fire. People soon started to believe that the house was haunted by demons since…well…not a single thing was harmed in the fire. It was hard to believe since the fire was so hot, it burned things around it. The cars and little kid toys were all ruined but the house remained old and perfect. They say demons were working in the house that night.

"Later they found out that the daughter was part of a clan and every now and again they would have ceremonies in her room. The parents didn't know how they got in but soon rumors started up that the clan was of werewolves and she was chosen as their protector, that's why she suddenly became normal. She was trying to protect their secret. Once the rumors came up, the family moved and very so often you'll see lights going off in the house and occasionally there will be weird noises."

"Well nothing has happened since I moved here," Sakura rested her elbows on her knees and held her face with one of her hands, "And that still doesn't explain what he could be doing there."

Tenten and Hinata looked back and forth at each other. Tenten held her smirk with happiness and Hinata merely looked at Sakura. All of a sudden, Tenten bounced off the door and walked to her closet. She pulled out an army jacket and put it on.

"Well, we could find out what he was doing there," Tenten smiled. Sakura smiled and stood up.

"Sounds like fun. When she we leave?" Sakura looked at her watch, "It's about nine right now."

Hinata's eyes grew big. "You can't be serious!" her façade became terrified. Tenten stopped lacing up her shoes and glared at her.

"Well, let's put it this way, you can either go back home to your slave driver, Neji-sama, or come with us and take a risk for once. If anyone asks we were just taking Sakura home. Anyways, I am supposed to take you home later. Neji and the others would never know," Tenten looked Hinata in the eye. Hinata gulped and grabbed her jacket.

"I'll go but I still don't feel right about it," Hinata stuck her arm through a pale blue sweater when Tenten motioned her to stop. Sakura decided to teach Hinata this time.

"Hinata, if you're going to go with us, you can't wear something light. It's dark outside but if we walked by street lights you would stand out more than us. Tenten, do you have an extra jacket?" Sakura looked over as Tenten opened her closet door again. The inside of the closet was draped with dark clothing. Finding something for Hinata was easy. Tenten threw a tight leather jacket at Hinata. She put it on and found out that it was very comfortable.

They looked at each other. "Ready?" Sakura asked. She was eager to get going. Tenten beamed with eagerness as Hinata played with the edges of her jacket and nodded. Tenten went into her drawer and took out three flashlights and stuffed something extra into one of her many pockets. Sakura didn't get a good look at it but at that point she really didn't care.

Within minutes they were heading out the door and out on the cold streets. The night was unusually cool and turbulent. The clouds above their heads seemed darker. It hid the stars and the moon so well that there wasn't even a speck of light in the sky. Every street light they passed under made them look like shadows among the pavement. The nearer they grew to the house, the neared Sakura's hand came to her throat where her ruby laid. Hinata clutched the jacket to her face and Tenten's hand laid closer to the pocket where she had hid the item.

Soon their feet stopped at the gate with the statue. Tenten pushed gently on the gate and it flew open. Hinata shuddered at the sight. Sakura was the first one to walk inside the gate, her hand was now plastered to her necklace. It gave her strength and helped her walk to the front door. They stood there for a moment and turned on their flashlight. They entered the door and looked at two stair cases, one lead to the basement and another lead upstairs.

The house was bigger on the inside than it seemed. There were many rooms and hallways that lead to a different corridor of the house. It was also more kept up inside than it was outside. Everything was old but looked radiantly new. Marble was everywhere, even on the ceiling. It sparkled on the light from their flashlights.

"I think from here we should split up. You see the garage shed in the back. We'll meet up there in a bit. I'll go on my own since I know the terrain of this place and Sakura, you stick with Hinata. Don't let anything happen to her," Tenten ordered. She shook Sakura's hand and walked down to the basement. Hinata hooked her arm with Sakura's free arm. Her tremble went through Sakura's body.

"Well, think we should head off now?" Hinata shook her head yes to Sakura's question. They trotted off through the halls, finding nothing but dust and clutter. It was amazing between the differences in some rooms than the front room. Sakura walked around, touching objects. Hinata began to loosen up and finally let go of Sakura's arm.

They began to walk around more and Hinata began to grow more and more comfortable. She finally stopped and looked at Sakura. Sakura stood and looked at her. The light of her flashlight bounced off the marble and hit Hinata in the face. "Sakura, I'm being a pest. I'm sorry. I'll head off on my own for a bit and go upstairs so you don't have to. Anyways, I feel…well I really need to go upstairs," Hinata looked at Sakura, waiting for Sakura to answer. She gave her a weird look and shooed her off.

"Alright but be careful. Try to be back down here in about five minutes," Sakura smiled, "I'll be waiting at the steps and if you aren't there, I'll come and get you." She watched as Hinata walked into the upper part of the house. Her feet stayed in place for a minute then she walked around a bit. The next room she entered was what seemed to be a little girl's room. It was pale purple and well kept up. She wished she had asked how long ago the room had been last used.

Her eyes traced every figure in the room. On a dresser was the last items of the child. It was four little angels. Each one held a different jewel. The jewels gleamed like they had just been polished. Their colors were bright. Sakura's eyes were drawn to an angel with a red jewel. She picked it up and fiddled with it. Turning it upside-down she nearly dropped the angel. Little letters spelled out, "Spring – Sakura." She sat it down and picked up another angel. It had held a blue jewel that looked a lot like the necklace Hinata wore. Instead of having a name on it, it only said winter. It was the same with the other two. They held a yellow jewel and a light green jewel. Those two read, Summer and Autumn. She put the angels in her pocket and quickly exited the room.

Five minutes had passed without Hinata. Still she wasn't worried and decided to walk a little bit more. The next room she walked into was the kitchen. Everything looked relatively new, including the appliances. Her ears began to pick up the murmur of the refrigerator. She opened it and looked inside. A gasp came from her lips. It was full of food that wasn't spoiled or rotten. "How can this be?" she asked but as soon as she did, a loud howl came from upstairs. She jumped a bit then her mind raced.

"Hinata!" she screamed and began to run up the stairs. Adrenaline pumped through her body, making each movement crucial. She ran around upstairs, looking for Hinata. Her body went faster as she ran. Then, her face grew utterly pale. A faint scream came from a room down the hall. Her feet ran awkwardly to the room. As soon as she reached it, she knew it was locked. She grabbed her necklace and glared at the door.

"Aperto!" She screamed and placed her hand on the door. A bright light came from her hand and blasted the door off its hinges. Inside she saw what she had dreaded most. Hinata was slammed against the wall with Kiba holding her down. Kiba looked over and then out the window, a beam of light shown through it, hitting Kiba. He backed away, frantically, and looked away from them.

Sakura ran to Hinata and stood in front of her. She felt the necklace burn into her skin. Her eyes fell to Kiba. He snarled and howled. His back began to arch and his shirt began to rip. All of his limbs stretched out and became filled with hair and such. His face became deformed and looked exactly like a wolf. Kiba turned around and looked at them. This time he wasn't a human, he was something different. Something wilder who held the heart of man but the look of an animal. He was a werewolf.

Sakura stepped out and soon began to regret her movement. As soon as she did, Kiba jumped onto her, knocking off her hood. He bit at her face and clawed into her skin. Hinata ran over and pushed the beast off.

"Stop!" she screamed. Kiba retreated to a corner, hiding himself in shadows.

((translation at the bottom of page))

"Il padrone, chi è questa ragazza? Perchè è qui?" the wolf spoke. As he did, Sakura began to notice that she could understand his speech. "È odori come loro. E così facciali. Siete persino il mio padrone?"

Kiba walked out from his corner and snarled at Hinata. The leather jacket Hinata was wearing fell to the floor. Her hand went to her own necklace. It began to glow. "I can't understand you," she cried. She closed her eyes and fell to the floor. Sakura looked over at Kiba.

"I'm Sakura, the girl from school," she tried to talk to him. The wolf again jumped at her. This time he tore her hoodie and shirt underneath. He bit her hair. Sakura began to cry. Kiba was too strong for her. "Hinata, Hinata, please help me!" she cried out.

Hinata began to rise from the floor. As she opened her eyes, they turned from pearl to a crystal blue, almost exact to her necklace. "Ottenga fuori di lei. Ora!" her necklace blazed bright blue and lit up the whole room. Kiba slowly got off of her and walked over to Hinata. It looked like he was bowing to her.

"Sono spiacente che il padrone, lo perdona prego," he said. Hinata bowed down and petted him. A warm smile radiated from her face. Sakura looked into Hinata's eyes and pulled out the blue angel. She looked on the bottom of it and read it. "Winter – Hinata."

Footsteps stomped up the stairs and into the room where . A feminine shape body appeared in the doorway. An arm stuck out of the doorway and aimed itself at Sakura. In its hand was a pistol. Kiba looked toward Sakura and growled. He stood up and made an attack position. "Sakura don't move!" the body yelled. It held out a pistol. Sakura looked up and immediately recognized the body. It was Tenten.

She stood up. "Tenten, Don't!" She screamed. Tenten stepped out of the doorway and shot a bullet right behind Sakura's ear. Sakura turned around and screamed. There was another body behind hers. Red eyes radiated from the body. The form held its shoulder where its black blood poured. Sakura's necklace began to react to the presence. It glowed red and paralyzed her.

The free hand from the body pulled her to it. The body was cold like a corpse. It was shaped and was layered with muscles. She looked up into cold, red eyes and soon saw a face from the glow of her necklace. His fingers laced around her neck. "Shoot again and I'll kill her," the male said. Tears began to pour from her eyes.

"Sasuke," she whispered. Kiba growled up again. Hinata stood up and glared along with Tenten. Then, just like what had happened to Sakura, Hinata bent over onto the floor and began to scream. Her shirt began to stretch and rip. Two bright wings emanated from her back. As soon as the pain subsided, she stood up and ripped off her necklace. The crescent jewel formed itself into a staff. The room grew glacial and from the icy air came tiny snowflakes.

Kiba pushed himself onto her and pushed her down. "Il sorceress, non spreca la vostra resistenza. Lascilo combattere il leech." He spoke. Sakura heard his words clearly.

"Sorceress, now I see why Neji keeps your powers drained," Sasuke looked over and smiled, "I have seen all that I have needed. Oh, and princess, I'll be your partner at the dance. I'll not have you dance with a beast like him." He quickly kissed Sakura and disappeared as quickly as he had come.

They looked at each other. Tenten frowned. "Sakura, you are also a sorceress aren't you?" she asked. Sakura looked down at the ground, thinking. Fate had rewritten itself. She then looked at Hinata who was quickly forming back to a human.

"I heard your voice earlier yelling in Italian. I didn't think much of it until the air smelled of old, dead blood. I knew he was here so I came up here. I had no clue what was going on. I'm now guessing that he'll be attending our dance as your partner. Congratulations," Tenten said with cynicism, "You are so lucky. You're a vampire lover aren't you? If you are, get someone else to sew your dress. I'm a hunter, not a lover." Tenten turned around and began to walk out of the room.

"Tenten! Don't leave. You have it wrong. I wish I had never had an obsession with vampires. Now I'm stuck in a mess I don't think I can get out of," Sakura looked at Hinata. Kiba was protecting her. She lay, spread out on the ground, passed out. Tenten looked back at Sakura.

"I don't want to hear it now. We better get Hinata back house. We can say she fell asleep. Neji won't think anything strange of it. Anyways, by the way you sound, I think we should spend tonight together so we can learn more about each other. Call your mom and tell her," Tenten ordered, throwing a phone from her pocket to Sakura, "Kiba, I think it would be best if you left here and went to find the rest of your kind. Tell them that this house is off limits and find somewhere else."

Sakura watched as Kiba left. He jumped out the window and ran far out the street. She looked at the phone and dialed her number. Lying to her mom was easy. Then she looked at Tenten. She was carrying Hinata. "Tenten, do you hate me?" Sakura asked politely.

"No, I just think its about time you learn some things," Tenten walked out of the room, followed by a ripped up Sakura. She had a feeling that tonight would be hectic.

"Master, who is this girl? Why is she here" the wolf spoke. As he did, Sakura began to notice that she could understand his speech. "She smells like them. You smell like them. Are you my master?"

Hinata began to rise from the floor. As she opened her eyes, they turned from pearl to a crystal blue, almost exact to her necklace. "Get off of her now!" her necklace blazed bright blue and lit up the whole room. Kiba slowly got off of her and walked over to Hinata. It looked like he was bowing to her.

"I am sorry Master, please forgive me" he said. Hinata bowed down and petted him. A warm smile radiated from her face. Sakura looked into Hinata's eyes and pulled out the blue angel. She looked on the bottom of it and read it. "Winter – Hinata."

Kiba pushed himself onto her and pushed her down. "Sorceress, do not waste your strength. Let me fight the leech." He spoke. Sakura heard his words clearly.

And that's about it. So I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I'll try to update more frequently.
