The sunny day had turned into a tornado nightmare as the winds picked up and the clouds became darker than usual. Sakura, Neji and Hinata had successfully moved the young blond into a spacious room that was filled, wall to wall with books. It had only been twenty minutes since they got in the room, and a large amount of cheering could be heard in the backyard of the mansion. Neji left to notify them of the fight that was about to take place.
"Oh....my poor head..." Sakura's eyes widened as Naruto sat up right, rubbing the back of his head.
"Naruto, are you alright?" Naruto noticed the tears beginning to form in Sakura's eyes and smiled a little.
"Yeah I guess, but where are we and where's Sasuke and the others?" Sakura wiped her tears away and looked up to Hinata for the details.
"Master Sasuke has gone outside and is challenging his brother to a fight, so that he can take over as the mansion's owner"
"Say what?"
"Because he did not want you to get hurt, he has decided to kill his brother so that no harm will come to you or Sakura, You are special to him and he is fighting for you" A small tint of redness was seen on both his cheeks but it quickly disappeared.
"All right, just stop there...first off, all of what you just told me is bull shit, second, I know who will and who won't fight for me and I know for damn sure that this guy wouldn't waste his immortality on me, and listen...not to be tight ass, but this is stupid, knowing you're not wanted by your parents, then finding out that some guy you have hardly known for one day, has suddenly gotten attached to you and wants to fight for you...I'm sorry to say but I don't believe in fairy tale crap" Naruto suddenly got off his butt and pulled Sakura with him, and dragged both himself and her out into the lobby of the mansion.
"But...Naruto..." Sakura could feel Naruto's grip around her wrist and knew that he was not willing to listen to anyone.
"Sakura?" Naruto stopped and Sakura turned around to see who had called her name.
"Sasori...sorry for causing you all this trouble, Naruto and I want to thank you for your hospitality" Naruto could tell there was a bit of sadness to the girl's voice.
"Sakura, if you're willing to stay here, be my guest...I'm getting out of here"
"Before you go, will you not watch the match?" Naruto sighed and went along with Sasori and the others as they made their way through the crowds of vampires and werewolves that were cheering the two brothers on.
The fight was beginning to grow deadly as Itachi was trying to find every way possible to kill his brother. Sasuke had to dodge Itachi's sharp claws and flashed his fangs every now and then, showing him how far he was willing to go with the fight. Itachi stopped attacking and smelled the air, whipping his head in every direction. Sasuke then realized that Sakura and Naruto had somehow gotten outside and began to search for them before Itachi could.
"So you've been hiding humans in our mansion eh?" Sasuke's eyes gazed through his brother's as the two of them circled each other, both trying to find an opening.
The suit that Sasuke had worn that day was completely torn and shredded during the fight and all that could be seen of the suit was a piece of fabric that was still tucked inside his black, checkered pants. Naruto was beginning to understand why Sakura liked these kind of men and felt his heart thumping faster than normal. The clouds were still around but yet no rain had fallen at all. The skin on Sasuke was pale but his muscles were big like a model out of a magazine, posing for the camera.
"I think we should go before Itachi-san notices we're here" Sasori explained, and grabbed the two of them, Naruto by the collar of his sweater and Sakura by the side of her and pulled them away to one of the secret passage ways.
Itachi sensed the movement and turned into a bat, fangs bearing for all to see. Sasuke gritted his teeth and turned into a bat as well, chasing after his blood craving brother. All the other vampires rushed to follow them and turned themselves into bats while the wolves were stuck in the backyard with no way of following them.
"Give them to me Sasori, don't go against the current ruler!" Itachi hissed at them as he began to catch up to Sasori.
Sasuke was right on his tail, not stopping for anything. The passage was lightly lit up by the wooden torches that hung on the walls. Engraved writings were as visible as a dog up close. Naruto had a hard time reading any of them since he was being carried. One name caught his eye though and he read it in his mind. He was in total shock of the name and thought it couldn't possibly be true. Minato Uzumaki, once ruler of the vampires, had been killed by a stake through the heart after knowing of his son's existence. His mother was a human and was called a witch because she knew how to disappear within the shadows. His mind repeated his father's name over and over so that it would never be forgotten.
Naruto did not know what the hell was going on anymore, nor did he want to know. He could hear Itachi's voice in the back and heard the loud voices of the other bats. He looked the other way, the way that they were heading for and saw a small light, radiating from a room. Sasuke recognized where they were headed and flew through a small opening in the ground. He urged his bat wings to take him to the mansion faster but the flying was not helping much. With one last flap of his wings, he went back into his human form and dashed off like a cheetah.
He heard the flapping noises growing more and more as he neared his study room. He unlocked the door with his key and opened it. Closing it quietly so that his brother would not hear of the other door. Sasori was sitting calmly in one of the chairs while Naruto and Sakura were hiding behind a bookshelf.
"Naruto...you can come out now" Sasuke sat next to Sasori while Sakura and Naruto came out of hiding and sat close to the two heroes.
"My father...died...all because he knew he had a son...Sasuke this is getting crazy...let us go, this game of yours has gone on long enough and I want to go home"
"The ruler was your father?"
"I thought you knew"
"This mansion was told to hold a lot of things, I never once believed of the stories that were written on the walls"
"Well now you know it's true so why don't you let us go home?"
"I am sorry but that won't be happening, my brother is out there in the passage and it's entirely impossible to carry both of you with all the wind going on out there...my brother's senses are far more greater than my own"
"I'm sorry I got you into this Naruto" Sakura looked up at Naruto with pleading eyes.
"It wasn't your fault we're in this mess...it's his" Naruto snarled at the pale man hit his shoulder against Sasuke's, hard enough to nearly knock him over.
"Why do you hate me, my brother is the one that's after your neck not-"
"Who was the one that let us come in....you could have saved yourself the trouble by not opening the door!" Sasuke could see that Naruto's eyes held a great amount of depression and anger inside.
Sasuke was tempted to take the loud mouth out with one bite. Instead, he growled and sat at a small desk of his, putting his legs up on the table. He crossed his arms across his bare chest and began to think to himself.
The sound of his brother's fists banging on the door could be heard as clear as a bell and it was pissing Sasuke off knowing that he could not do much if Naruto and Sakura were in the same room as him.
"Maybe we should bet him Naruto" The blond looked at Sakura as if she were a crazy person.
"You're planning to take on a very angry and blood thriving man by betting him?" Sakura nodded.
"Sorry to let you down, but I'm not risking my life just to place my life in the hands of two dice"
"What's wrong with you, ever since we found out about their secret, you've been nothing but a negative moron, yet you were so hyped up about completing the bet we made"
"Sakura, that was before we found out this place was haunted, how the hell was I supposed to know it was true?"
"Come on Naruto, it will be like we were unstoppable again"
"So if we lose, what do we do then?"
"Well...if we lose...we get turned into the race we want to be turned into" Sasuke immediately jumped up from his position.
"There is no way in hell that Naruto is turning into a vampire"
"Yeah see, he even says no to it!"
"Although you would look rather interesting with bright hair and pale skin...."
"You must be out of your minds....Sasori how come you're not saying anything?"
"Because I have agreed with Sakura-chan" Sakura smiled.
"There you have it Naruto, all three of us are against you, and we might have a possible way of winning"
"How on earth do us mortals have a chance of winning?" Sakura pulled out two, small, red dice.
"Ah...now I got it, little cheat" Naruto finally agreed with them on the plan.
