Chapter 2

…Sasuke's POV…

Part of me wanted Yoru to sit by me to keep that fangirl away but another part of me was curious. Was that one of those silver pendant necklaces that belonged to the royal family? Could she be the heiress that Niiro had told me about last year? If so, that would mean that I'd have to protect her from my brother. If he finds out that there's another vampire left and much less the heiress, he'll try to kill her. I must find out for sure.

I'd finished my work already and so had Yoru. Turning my head towards her, I could tell that she did indeed have a necklace on but I couldn't get a good look at it. Her shirt was also a V-neck which showed some cleavage and the necklace just happened to be long enough so that it would have me looking directly at her chest.

"Sasuke?" she asked me clearing her throat. "What are you looking at?" "Huh. Oh, your necklace," I answered, slightly embarrassed. "Right…," she said with a smirk. She took it off and slid it across the table to me.

I looked at it. The crescent moon pendant was made of silver and the inner rim of it was trimmed in a strip of gold. There was an opal in the center of it that was a bright blue color. I studied the color of the opal and then looked at her eyes. They do seem to match.

"Are you done yet? It's just a necklace, nothing special," she said interrupting my thoughts. "Um…yeah," I said handing it back to her.

Perhaps it's just a coincidence. I mean if she really was an heiress she'd have to know about it and she'd never just hand the necklace to someone she'd just met. Besides there's no proof that the heiress survived in the first place. Man, Niiro could've at least told me her name.

…Yoru's POV…

Yeah, this guy is weird. I mean it's just a necklace right? I'd always thought that it was just a normal necklace but now this Sasuke guy was acting all freaky about it. He'd looked at the opal in the center and then at my eyes. Did he know something I didn't?

"Sasuke what do you know about this necklace?" I asked trying to pry the information out of him. "Oh. Nothing really, it just looked like a really expensive necklace," he said and I could tell it was a lie. "Don't lie to me, Sasuke. You were looking back and forth between my eyes and that opal. It's just a normal necklace right?"

"I'm not lying to you," he lied again. Did he honestly think he could trick me? "Sasuke you're lying right now. It's just a normal necklace right?"

"I don't know," he said and I could tell he wasn't lying. He was probably trying to figure it out but what could be special about this necklace? My mind was spinning. Sasuke had been trying to figure something out about my necklace but I didn't know what it was. Obviously he still knew something I didn't but after all almost everyone I met knew something I didn't.

The bell rang loudly in my ears and it took a couple of seconds for me to react, since it was so loud. "Jaraiya, you idiot! Stop messing with the bell system!" Everyone laughed, except for myself and the smirking Sasuke.

I picked up my things and headed to my next class. Keyboarding? What type of class is that?

It only took about a minute for me to speed my way down the crowded halls and get into my class considering how skinny I was. I happened to be the first person to my class.

As I stepped into the doorway, I suddenly felt a hand on my butt. I immediately spun around and cold cocked the boy who was behind me. He lay on the floor unconscious, while blood ran out of his busted nose. My teacher, an older lady with white hair and glasses which made her look like a peacock, stared at the boy, shrugged, and walked into the classroom. I like this teacher, I thought with a satisfied smirk on my face.

I walked inside the hot classroom and immediately began starting to sweat so I made it my goal to sit by the air conditioning. I found a seat by the air conditioner and sat down as quickly as possible.

I wasn't alone. About half the class started feuding over who got to sit by the air conditioner. Their babbling stopped when the teacher slammed a yardstick on her desk and broke it in two. Instead of fighting for the air conditioner seats, they immediately took the closest seat available.

Naruto ended up sitting by me and his friend, the pink-haired girl sat two seats away from him. A minute after the tardy bell rang, a very unenthusiastic Sasuke entered the class. A few of the girls stared at him and one even fainted. The pink-haired girl was blushing violently and I wondered if she might faint also. But instead I heard her say as Sasuke came to sit between her and Naruto, "I saved you a seat, Sasuke-kun."

"Whatever," came his rude reply. My insides were screaming at me to laugh right about now. Instead of doing as they commanded, I simply smirked at them.

"Sakura, there's no use. He likes her," Naruto said pointing to me. "What?!" Sasuke and I asked together. "You dobe," Sasuke replied, regaining his cool composure. "Idiot, Naruto!" I said slapping him on the back of the head. I could have swore that I saw a smirk on Sasuke's face as I did so.

"S-Sasuke-kun? Is that true? You like her and not me?" Sakura asked timidly. "No, no, and yes I don't like you," Sasuke answered in a rude voice.

Under his breath, I heard him say, "Naruto, you're an idiot." The teacher slammed another yardstick on the desk, breaking it in two as well, which made all of us hush. How many of those does she have?

"Okay, today we'll be practicing typing the home row keys. They are A,S,D…" Her voice trailed off in my mind where I was playing back the images of my dream.

I could still remember quite vividly the mob of Konoha people chasing after me. Because I kept looking back, I'd not seen the tree root that was perfectly placed in my path. When I tripped that caped man, whose hood covered his face from my view, caught me before I hit the ground and took me up in his arms. The strong man ran through the forest with me, but then my dad's face had appeared and made me wake up. Damn it, why'd he have to wake me up so early?

Before I knew it, the bell had rung and I found myself leaving the class. My next class was English, another boring class. When I got across the campus and to the room where my English class was, a very annoyed-looking Iruka was waiting for the class to come in.

Naruto was already at the door and was greeting the teacher in his usual loud voice. After he walked in, Iruka started rubbing his ears. "Hello," I said as I entered the class.

Looking around I saw some of the same people as in my other classes: Naruto, Hinata, Sakura, that blonde-haired girl, and another girl with brown hair like mine in two buns on the sides of her head.

Iruka gave us a boring lecture about discipline in his class and I found my eyes closing on their own and eventually my head was on my desk and I fell into a light sleep. It was just enough for me to have another dream. The dream was the same as before.

I was running and the mob was behind me. Tripping on a tree root, I found myself in the strong arms of some mysterious man in a black cape and a hood. He ran with me in his arms through the forest until the angry shouts of the mob had disappeared.

Then he finally set me down on the ground against a large tree. He looked at my swollen ankle (a/n this injury came from when she fell: just say she twisted her ankle and now its bruised. Okay back to story)

"I can't help this and I can hear them getting closer. We must go," he said in a slightly familiar voice. If only people would talk more like Naruto, that way you could remember their voices.

I shook my head and tried to stand, but my ankle was hurting too bad for me to do so alone. As I fell the man reached his hand out to grab mine before I fell backwards. As he did so the hood came off and I saw--Naruto's face?

Naruto was shaking me. "Uh…Yoru-chan? Class is over, time to go home." "Oh, thanks Naruto," I said rubbing my tired eyes. "Who's coming to pick you up Yoru?" he asked. "My dad, I think. I'll call and ask."

I started walking out of the class and headed to the bathroom to make a call. Once I'd disappeared within a stall, I took out my phone and called my dad. It rang a couple times before he answered.

"Hello?"

"Hey dad. Are you coming to pick me up from school?"

"Um...Can somebody bring you home? I have some errands to run so if you find someone—."

"Okay."

I put my cell phone back in my purse and left the bathroom to find Naruto waiting. Sakura, Sasuke, and Hinata had also waited for me. "So? Are you coming with us?" Naruto asked.

"Yeah, my dad's got to go…do stuff," I answered in a confused voice at my father's antics. "Okay Yoru-chan!" he said and started walking down the hall. "Naruto, stop yelling like that," Sasuke said in his usual something-stuck-up-ass/go-shoot-yourself attitude.

"Yoru-chan can sit in the front seat, if it's okay with you Sasuke. I don't mind sitting in the back with Hinata and Sakura," Naruto said as we got to the car. I looked at Sasuke and he nodded his head. I smiled at him. It's only my first day and I've already made friends with these four.

Once everyone had gotten in the car, Sasuke asked, "So where are you staying Yoru?" "In that big hotel toward the edge of town," I answered. "The one I saw you at?" he asked. "Yes."

He drove for about two minutes until he got to Sakura's house and she got out of the car and went in her house. A couple more minutes later, we arrived at the Hyuga Mansion. I wonder if we're going to live in something like this once that money from the bank gets here.

Now only myself and Naruto remained in the vehicle with Sasuke. Sasuke drove for about ten minutes (five of which spent at red lights) until he got to the corner where the hotel was located. He looked at it with a questioning look. "It's temporary," I explained before taking my back pack and leaving.

…Sasuke's POV…

"What does she mean it's temporary?" I asked after Yoru had left. "I don't know but I'm hungry," Naruto answered. "I'm not going to eat with you but I can drop you off and you can walk the rest of the way." "But that's a long way...," he whined. "The ramen shop is two blocks away from your house." "I know that," Naruto said. Now he was starting to act like Shikamaru.

"Whatever, you lazy bum," I said, finally giving in to him. "Yes!" Naruto shouted as I pulled into the small parking lot.

He got out of the car and ran into the ramen shop excitedly. I could just leave him and make him walk but that would be—wait why do I care? Oh well, I guess I'll stay.

…Yoru's POV…

As soon as I got to the hotel, I went up the stairs and entered my room. While munching on a strawberry Poptart, I began to write.

Dear Diary,

Today was the first day of school for me in this new city. I met some pretty cool people and they're really nice to me. One of them is kind of emo and he was acting weird today. I have a feeling that he knows something about my necklace that I don't.

At this point, I looked down at the necklace which hung around my neck and its crescent moon pendant that rested on my chest. What does he know about this thing?

His name is Sasuke Uchiha and his friends are Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno, and Hinata Hyuga. Naruto invited me to ride with them and Sasuke brought me home. I can't believe how easy it was to make friends here. Well, I'm getting tired now so I'll go to sleep.

I closed my diary and turned the light off. As I lay on my bed, my eyes start to close and I fall asleep.

End: So this is a boring chapter and if I don't do a time-skip sort of thing it will remain boring, so for the next chapter we will be skipping ahead about a month and a half or so. Okay that's all, oh and plz R&R.
