Chapter 3
September 17
(one month after start of school)
…Sasuke's POV…
I was dressed in black and wearing a black cape. There she was running from the mob just as she'd been for the past month in my dreams. She tripped and I caught her in my arms. We ran through the forest, well I ran she was in my arms, until I got to a tree. Their voices had disappeared and now all was quiet. I surveyed her swollen ankle and shook my head. I couldn't help her. On cue, a girl in a dark foresty green cape and a boy in a maroon cape jumped down from the trees.
The girl said, "We must hurry before they catch her. Your brother is with them." My eyes turned angry. If HE was with them, I would have to stay to fight him. "No. You can't fight him," the girl said reading my mind. "He has too many people with him. Our best chances are to run away. We have to get far enough away so that he can't track us. He'll have to cover our scent." She pointed to the boy in the maroon cape.
Suddenly the noise from my alarm clock woke me up and I looked at the stupid thing. Didn't I break it once before? Oh yeah, Naruto snuck in and put another one in there. Damn him.
I got up out of bed and got dressed as quickly as possible. Just as I put my shoes on, I heard Naruto's car horn blowing and I rushed down the stairs. When I got outside, Naruto was waiting impatiently while Sakura, Hinata, and Yoru were jamming to Fergy (did I spell that right?) on B97.
…Yoru's POV…
"G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S, yeah…" Sakura, Hinata and I were singing along with Fergy's Glamorous on the radio, Hinata surprisingly being the most powerful singer.
Sasuke sat in the front seat and listened to us singing as we left his house and went to school. When we got to school, the bell still hadn't rung yet so we all hung out by the water fountain.
"So, what do you want for your birthday Yoru?" Sakura asked me. "It doesn't really matter as long as it's nothing too girly," I answered. "Okay. How about just some money? Then you can buy something for yourself." I laughed and replied, "Okay, that's fine."
Just as I finished my sentence the bell rang. Sasuke, Hinata, and Naruto walked with me to our Algebra class while Sakura waved and went to English.
When we got to the class, it was unlocked but the teacher still wasn't there. Naruto and Hinata sat on the third row of desks together directly above Sasuke and I. We waited for about ten minutes after the tardy bell, and finally Sasuke decided that he needed to go to the bathroom.
"Cover for me okay?" he said as he stood up. I shook my head and he left. After a couple minutes he came back into the class and Kakashi still wasn't here. "Dang, I know he's slow but this has to be the latest he's ever been." I shook my head agreeing with Sasuke.
I then pulled my sketchbook out and started drawing. Remembering my dream, I drew a picture of myself being caught by the mystery man in my dream. In the background, I drew the mob of people with stakes and garlic. I could feel Sasuke's gaze focused on my paper and I looked at him.
Sasuke asked, "Where'd you get that idea?" I smiled slightly before frowning. "A dream." "Your dream? You had a dream about that?" I shook my head, slightly confused. "Whoa that is weird," he said shaking his head. "How is that weird?"
"I had that same dream."
"But I'm pretty sure you didn't get caught by some man in a black cape," I said imagining how gay that would be.
"No, I am the man in the black cape." He looked me in the eyes and I could tell he was serious. I looked at his eyes and noticed that he was right, his eyes were the same as those in my dream.
"How often is it that you have the same dream as someone you know?" I asked. "Very rare, especially since we'd not watched the same movie or anything," he answered. I looked down at the drawing and thought about it. I wasn't the only one who looked at it. Sasuke's fangirl came and looked over my shoulder.
"What are they doing?" she asked pointing to the mob. She gasped when she noticed the garlic and the stakes. She backed away from me with shock on her face. "They're chasing you, and that means that you're a—a vampire."
At the word vampire, everyone turned around. Kakashi had just walked in and when he saw the girl standing up he said, "Sit down, Marie." Marie (the fangirl) pouted but rushed away from Yoru. Sasuke looked at her shocked expression at the girl's accusation. "Are you?" he asked curiously. "No! Why did she say that?" I answered. He pointed to the stakes that I'd drawn in the hands of the mob. "That's how they kill vampires. Wooden stakes. You didn't know that?"
I shook my head slowly. "Then don't worry about it. There's no way you could be a vampire if you don't know that." He gave me an encouraging gaze and I forced a small smile. It vanished when I heard the people behind me whispering. I saw Sasuke glance up at Naruto. Great, they believe her too.
…Sasuke's POV…
I could hear Marie telling her friend Amber about the drawing. "She's a vampire, Amber. I saw the picture, and the people were chasing her with wooden stakes in their hands. My dad said that's how they used to kill vampires." When I looked in their direction I saw Amber staring at Yoru in shock a faint glimpse of fear in her eyes but above all hatred.
But if she's not a vampire and they think she is, they might end up killing an innocent girl. I don't think Yoru would lie to me but what if she doesn't know. My mind was spinning again. She wears the silver necklace like vampires do and its opal matches her eyes like vampires. My gold moon necklace has an onyx that matches my eyes. They should fit into each other perfectly then.
"Yoru, can I see your necklace for a minute?" I ask her with a serious voice. "Uh…Sure Sasuke," she said, taking her necklace off and then continuing the worksheet Kakashi had just passed out.
I took mine off and held it under the table. The gold moon charm on my necklace was a three quarter moon and hers was a crescent. I slowly put them closer and closer until the insides touched and my mouth hung open as they fit into each other perfectly. No! She can't be, she doesn't even know their weaknesses. Maybe somebody with the same eyes gave it to her. There is no way she could be…no!
"Here Yoru," I said after I finally was able to pull the pendants apart. They are attracted to each other? "Okay—." She started before the bell interrupted. I ran out of the class and rushed to the bathroom between my Keyboarding class and waited for Naruto to pass by. When I saw him, I grabbed his shirt and pulled him into the bathroom. (that doesn't sound right, but it't not what you think the guys are straight okay?)
"What is it Sasuke?!" Naruto yelled as I jerked him away from the crowd and into the bathroom. I pushed him into the handicap stall and shut the door, making sure no one else was in there. "Sasuke, what's wrong?"
"I think I found her." Naruto looked at me confused and asked, "Found who?" "The heiress." Naruto's eyes widened and he looked at me and asked, "For real?" I shook my head.
End: Ooo…Cliffie. Right so if you don't get the thing with the necklaces, the idea was inspired partly by the book TWitches. It's the book about two twin witches who were separated when they were babies and then they meet like some fifteen years or so later and they have necklaces, one of them a crescent moon and the other part of a sun that when they're put together they fit perfectly. So just think of that only it's a silver crescent moon and a gold three quarter moon that fit together perfectly. Sasuke will explain next chapter. By the way, if a vampire wears a silver necklace, what wears a gold one? What creature is almost always associated with vampires?
