Summery: Sasuke, Sakura, and Naruto get stuck in a house after an exhausting mission. The man in charge seems to be nice, but what is with the weird happenings and why can't they seem to get out? Why is that man trying to kill Sasuke and Naruto and why does he looking at Sakura?

Chapter 2

Sasuke heard some sort of noise as he slept. Waking up he opened one eye seeing nothing there. He slowly sat up looking around him only to see that the noise was coming from a tree branch scraping the window. 'Your getting paranoid Sasuke. It's a tree, a old dead tree that hasn't been trimmed in years.' Sasuke sighed as he looked down at Sakura still sleeping soundly next to him. As he was about to lie back down he head it again. 'What the hell is that? It sounds like something scratching wood or something. Well not even a scratching, more like a clawing.' Sasuke thought as he got out of the bed. Not even a step from the bed there was a giant bang on the wall from outside the room, like someone trying to get in.

Sakura awoke with a start at the noise. "What was that?" She asked as she looked around.

"I have no idea." Sasuke answered slowly moving back to where Sakura was. Just then there was another one a little louder this time. Followed by a series of loud bangs and scratching on the wall.

"Sasuke…" Sakura breathed as she scooted away from the wall towards the Uchiha. Sasuke didn't waist anytime in pulling her close to him as the sound suddenly moved from wall opposite from the door to the wall with the door. "This isn't a genjutsu" Sakura whispered her eyes wide with fear.

"I know…" Sasuke answered his grip on Sakura tightening as he watched the door. Suddenly the noises stopped and everything was quiet.

"Is it over?" Sakura asked her eyes never moving from the door.

"I don't think so…" Sasuke whispered back to her.

"What the hell is going on?" it came out no more then a whisper from Sakura, fear flowing from her voice.

"I have no idea." The prodigy admitted. Just then the door handle began to jiggle as if trying to be opened.

"Is the door looked?" Sakura asked.

"Yes…" Sasuke answered his grip on Sakura tightening again.

"Sasuke teme…Sakura chan… are you two in there?!" a voice from outside the door asked.

"Oh thank god!" Sakura exclaimed as she and Sasuke hurried to the door. Sasuke opened it finding Naruto in a position that looked like he was about to break it down.

"Hey you two are alive! I thought something happened to you two." Naruto said as Sakura hugged Naruto. "Why do you two look like you've seen a ghost."

"You mean that you didn't hear it?" Sasuke asked as Sakura moved away from Naruto.

"Hear what?" Naruto asked looking at his two best friends.

"That banging and scratching. Actually it was more like clawing then scratching, but didn't you hear it?" Sakura asked.

"Nope, I didn't hear anything." Naruto answered looking at his two friends as if they were crazy.

"Sasuke what's going on?" Sakura asked as she turned to him.

"I have no idea…but I think that we should get out of hear now!" Sasuke answered. "Naruto, Sakura go get your things we are leaving now!"

"But Sasuke it's in the middle of the night and there is that storm outside!" Naruto exclaimed.

"I would rather be out in that storm then spend one more minute in this house." Sasuke answered then turning to Sakura he asked, "Are you coming?"

"Of course." Sakura answered turning to go to her room.

"Of course she would side with you." Naruto said in a pouting fashion.

"Shut up and do it Naruto." Sakura answered walking into her room, leaving the door open. "What the hell!" Sakura suddenly exclaimed making Sasuke and Naruto stop mid argument.

"Sakura what's wrong?" Sasuke asked as he came to the entrance of the door. Right before he could enter the door suddenly closed. "Sakura…Sakura?" Sasuke asked as he tried to get the door to open.

"Sasuke!" Sakura cried from the other side trying as hard as she could to get the door to open, but it wouldn't budge.

"Sakura!" Sasuke yelled as he pushed on the door.

"What happened?" Naruto asked walking up to Sasuke.

"The door just closed by it's self and it won't open." Sasuke answered as he steped away from the door. "Sakura stand back from the door."

"Ok." Sasuke heard the desperation in her voice as she answered, making him even more pissed off.

"Ready?" Sasuke asked when he heard a muffled yeah he summoned all his chakra to his foot and kicked the door. There was enough force in that kick that it would have created a hole in a cement wall, but it didn't even make a dent in the door. "What the hell?" Sasuke said looking at the door in disbelieve.

"You can not open the door." A voice said. Turning around quickly Sasuke and Naruto saw Yates standing there.

"Where the hell did you come from?" Naruto asked shocked. "And why can't we get Sakura out?"

"She has been chosen." Yates answered him. "Don't worry no harm will come to her. But you two are a different story."

"What the crap is going on?" Naruto said taking a step back.

"You really think that you can defeat us?" Sasuke asked as his eyes went down into a death glare.

"I would run if I were you." Yates said.

"Why?" Naruto asked. Just then all the suits of armor in the hallway moved off of their podiums and took a step towards Naruto and Sasuke. All of them had axes or swords and were in a position to kill. "Shit." Naruto said as one took a swing at him, Naruto barley dodging it.

"Run Naruto!" Sasuke yelled as he grabbed the blond by the collar and started to run.

"Why Sasuke we can take them?"

"There is nobody in the armor you idiot. They are moving by themselves and this is obviously not a genjutsu!" Sasuke yelled as they ran.

Meanwhile Sakura was listening what they were saying from the safety of her room. 'What's going on out there?' She thought when she heard Sasuke yell at Naruto to run. After a moment or so the door opened reviling Yates.

"What is going on? What did you do to Sasuke and Naruto?" Sakura yelled at him as he took a couple steps towards her making her take a couple back. "What do you want with me? Don't come any closer, I warn you! I am a kunoichi from Kohana!"

"Did you see what was left for you?" he asked not seeming fazed by her words. Sakura turned her head to see a beautiful dress. (Think late 18th century really early 19th century America) It was white with blue and silver embroidery everywhere, clearly hand sewn. The whole front had what looked like little pearls embroidered on the top and sleeves. "This is a gift from the master, he would like to see you wear it tonight."

"Why…what do you want with me?" Sakura asked her voice clearly trying to hide her fright.

"If you don't do as your told do you really think that your friends will live?" Sakura didn't answer as her eyes went wide. "That's what I thought, now please get dressed. I will be back for you in a couple minutes." The moment his back was turned Sakura attacked, but instead of hitting him she went right threw him and fell on the ground. "That won't work miss. For you see I am already dead." Without another word he left the shocked Sakura on the ground.

&&&&&&

"Great Sasuke now were lost." Naruto said as they stopped to catch their breaths.

"Shut up dope. It looks like we are in the green house." Sasuke said as he looked around the room. It was actually more of jungle then a green house making it so that you couldn't walk two feet without a plant in your way.

"Hey what's that?" Naruto asked as they walked into an opening. In the middle of the little clearing was an old dead tree. "Why do they have a dead tree in the middle of this place?"

"Who knows…" Sasuke said as he walked up to the tree. In front of it was a golden sign.

"What's it say?" Naruto asked looking over Sasuke's shoulder to see it. "Oh man I can't read it. It's in another langue. If Sakura were here I am sure that she could read it no problem."

"It says: dedicated to my dear Emma, may our lover forever bloom and our sins be forever forgotten. May we find a place where we belong together and share a life of harmony. May you be able to forgive me…" Sasuke read, when he finished he looked up at the tree. "It must have died a while ago. This thing doesn't look like it's bloomed in years."

"I wonder what happened to who wrote that." Naruto said as he too looked at the tree.

"It doesn't matter. We have to get Sakura and leave this place as soon as possible." Sasuke said as he walked past Naruto towards the other side of the room looking for an escape. Finding another door he said, "Come on."

"I know it your gonna get us killed." Naruto said as he followed Sasuke.

"Shut up."

&&&&&

Sakura stood in her room in the dress making it look like she was an angel fallen from heaven. She also had her hair up into a complicated bun with a white flower in it.

"Please follow me." Yates said from the door. Sakura just nodded and did as she was told, after all she didn't want anything to happen to Sasuke or Naruto. Sakura followed Yates to what looked like a giant ballroom, once again fallowing the theme of gold and red. Sakura would have been more amazed by it except for the fact that she was too worried about her comrades. "The master will be with you in a moment." Yates said leaving her in the middle of the room.

Sakura nodded as she stood there. When Yates left the room she decided to make a run for it, but stopped when she ran into a chest. Looking up she found herself looking into blood red eyes with a tint of yellow. Silver hair with black roots framed his face as he looked down at her. His looks rivaled Sasuke's but there was something about him that told Sakura to run for her life that was really freaking her out.

Gaining up her courage she spoke, "You must be this so called master that Yates was talking about." Her voice was strong and she didn't let out any of the fear that this man was putting into her out.

"You look beautiful in that dress." his voice was cold and calm yet commanding as he spoke.

"Don't try to change the subject! Who are you? What do you want with me?"

"I am indeed the master of the house. And I only want one thing." He said as he held his hand out for her.

"And what would that be?" Sakura asked crossing her arms over her chest.

"Happiness."

"I don't follow."

"Come let me show you." He said while still holding his arm out for her.

"I don't go anywhere with anyone who's name I don't know." Sakura answered.

"My name is Raidon Motsumishi." He answered.

"Why does your first name mean Thunder God, Raidon san?"

"You may just call me Raidon."

"Ok Raidon, but why is it?"

"Why does your name mean cherry blossom?" He asked a smirk on his face. "It was just the name that you were given at birth. Now come you would like to know the answer to your question would you not?" He asked while extending his arm for her again. Curiosity getting the better of her Sakura nodded her head and allowed him to lead her towards the exit of the room.

"So…" Sakura encouraged.

"Do you believe in vampires?" Raidon asked.

"Not really…why do you ask?"

&&&&&

"That's it Uchiha! We are even more lost then before! And they said that you are a prodigy. One of the best in Kohana, a shinobi among shinobi! That's a load of crap!" Naruto exclaimed as they entered a dinning room.

"Oh shut up dope. Like you know where we are." Sasuke countered.

"I bet that I could have." Naruto said, as he was about to pull out a chair to sit on when it moved. "What the crap!"

"What now what Naruto?" an annoyed Sasuke asked.

"The chair just moved."

"What do you mean that it moved?"

"It moved!"

"How did it move?" Sasuke was now getting ticked off. There he was in the middle of a dinning room with an idiot claiming that chairs were moving and Sakura was somewhere where he couldn't protect her. Yep he was pissed off.

"I was standing here and the chair was right here." Naruto said as he moved from where he was standing to where the chair had been. "Then the chair moved right there!" He exclaimed pointing to where the chair was now. "And it did this all by it's self."

"Are you sure that this isn't any genjutsu?" Sasuke asked.

"Positive!"

"This is just getting weirder and weirder." Sasuke said as they walked into the next room. Once they turned the corner Sasuke stopped and stared at the end of the hall.

"What are you look-…" Naruto didn't finish talking as he looked at what Sasuke was staring at. There at the end of the hall was a portrait of a beautiful girl in a light pink dress. Her hair rivaled her dress and was pulled into a bun with roses, while her emerald eyes were looking strait at the two boys. Her expression was a light smile seeming to not have a care in the world. "It's…" Naruto started.

"Sakura" Sasuke finished in no more then a whisper.

&&&&&

"So let me get this strait." Sakura started as she walked with Raidon. "Your family has owned this mansion for hundreds of years and have always feared vampires."

"That is correct. They believed that vampires were real and from hell."

"How dose this deal with your happiness?" Sakura asked as they waked down a hall.

"All in good time." Raidon answered Sakura. Lightening struck outside lighting up the hall for a second. The entire left side of the hall was floor to ceiling windows over looking a cliff. "You see the family didn't know that the thing that they feared the most was among them. One member of there own family was indeed a vampire."

"How did that happen?"

"He was born a human, but one night someone broke into the house. The family member had only been a boy at the time and for some reason was the only one that had heard the intruder. When he went downstairs he saw the intruder sucking on the neck of one of the maids. When it looked up from the maid the boy saw glowing red eyes, indicating that it was indeed a vampire. Well the vampire let the maid drop to the floor and walked up to the boy. He then told the boy that if the boy ever said anything about what happened that night he would be the next to die.

"The next thing that the boy knew was that he was in his own bed and it was morning. Brushing it off as just a dream he overheard his parents talking about how one of the maids was missing. This only scared the boy and he decided not to tell anyone. As time went on he found that he hated the sun, red was a color that he really liked, and he loved the taste of blood. It wasn't until one day when he heard another noise and whet to check on it that he discovered that he was indeed a vampire."

"Why do you say that?" Sakura asked.

"When he reached the bottom of the stairs he found that a maid had tripped and cut herself. The site of her blood entranced him and he couldn't stop himself. He went over to her and taking the hand that had the cut he put it to his mouth and bit down. His other hand was covering her mouth so that no one would hear her scream. After he bit he started to suck drawing out her blood. He didn't stop there, after he drank from her hand he bit her neck and drank as much as he could. By the time that he was done with her she was dead and he was satisfied with himself.

"After that night he would go and find himself a new victim. He started to sleep during the days and his parents started to worry. By the time he realized what was happening to him it was to late. He was a full vampire. He still didn't know what that vampire had done to him years ago, but what ever it was had now made him a full-fledged vampire. By the time he reached 18 his parents were about to give up on him. That was until she came."

"She?"

"She was a beauty upon beauties. The only thing that rivaled her beauty was her heart and she stole his. She changed him for the better and after getting to know each other he fell head over heels in love with her. The only problem was that she was in love with his brother and his brother for her. Their love for each other was strong, but a vampire's jealousy was stronger. You see a vampire gets what it wants and it wanted her."

"So what did he do?"

"One night he took his brother out for a walk and killed him. Drank him dry and then left him at the entrance to this mansion. When Emma, that was her name, found out about this she was heart broken and whet to the vampire for comfort. Of course this is what he had been planning form the beginning and comforted her the best that he could. Another year passed and his feelings for her only grew, but as fate would have it she found him on one of his nightly feedings. He was drinking from another maid when Emma had ironically gone downstairs for a midnight snack. When she found out about him she realized that it was he who had killed her love and ran."

Raidon and Sakura walked into the green house and when they reached the middle with the dead tree Raidon continued his story.

"He found her right here with a knife threw her heart, self inflicted. So in her memory he planted this tree in this spot. Then in his grief he killed every single member of his family and everyone who worked for them."

Sakura walked with Raidon threw a door that lead down another hallway; this one didn't have any windows. The walls were red and had candles lighting the way just barely.

"There he lived in his solitude and anguish with only one person that he chose to keep alive."

"I don't understand how that could be? You said that this was about a hundred years ago. And how dose this have to do with your happiness and how do I fit in here?" Sakura demanded.

"Here." He said as they turned another corner. There at the end of the hall was the same picture that Sasuke and Naruto had seen earlier. "This is Emma…the girl that I loved more then life its self." Raidon said as Sakura stared at the picture in a cross between shock and horror.
