Chapter 17: Lips of an Angel
--Nightfall Haruno Shrine--
Sakura was in her room sitting on her window sill when all of a sudden she felt someone calling out to compelling to follow it she fell in a trance of some sorts and left walking past Ume who was going to take her routine walk around the park.
"Sakura-chan are you okay?" Ume whispered.
Sakura kept walking and so Ume simply shrugged her shoulders and finished getting ready for her walk. Sakura kept walking ignoring the murmurs of the people in the street. She was going somewhere but she didn't know exactly the place so she simply kept on walking she kept going on her way until she reached the tallest building in Konoha which was the old hospital she then stood up not snapping from her reverie until her gaze was directed to a figure which she recognized it to be Sasuke.
"Sasuke-kun is that you?" Sakura shouted.
Sasuke turned to look at her, his eyes a shade of crimson it was the time for his eyes to change color and they had done so very recently.
"What are you doing here Haruno?" He asked with a growl.
"I just felt led here that's all I had no idea you were here." She replied looking down.
Sasuke walked towards until he got dangerously close to her.
"Really Sa-Ku-Ra." He whispered in her ear saying her name syllable by syllable.
Sakura nodded in response shivering with the cold, she took a few steps back not knowing she was getting very close to the edge of the building.
--Uchiha house--
Itsuka wore a robe and stood up next to Deidara who had his sketch book and other drawing materials around him in an organized fashion. After begging her the whole day Itsuka agreed to allow him to draw her naked.
"We can start now un" He whispered.
Itsuka nodded and let the silk robe fall to the floor she sat on her knees on his bed as her hair covered her breasts. Deidara stood up and placed her hands in front of her as if she were receiving something.
"There, you look gorgeous un" He said triumphantly and he started to draw.
"Deidara can you tell me something?" Itsuka asked with a slight blush invading her cheeks.
"Anything un."
"What's your obsession with drawing me naked there are plenty of better looking girls that can model for you." She said.
"You are beautiful the way you are and besides we have a trust in each other that I would never be able to develop with anybody else un." Deidara with a smile and kept drawing.
--Hyuuga Mansion--
Neji laid on the grass with Tenten as they looked at the stars in the peaceful evening.
"Neji-kun the trip was great."
"I'm glad you enjoyed it Tenten."
Tenten then sat up not removing her gaze from Neji's face as he kept staring at the sky with a puzzled expression.
"Something special will happen tonight I'm not sure what it is though." He whispered.
"What do you mean Neji?" Tenten asked curiously as she wrapped her jacket around her form.
"I don't really know Tenten." Neji replied with a calm expression.
--Old Konoha Hospital--
Sasuke looked at Sakura and slowly started closing even more their distance.
"What were you doing with Naruto that day?" He asked as tears streamed down his cheeks.
--Hospital--
Itachi felt restless something Shizune noticed but she didn't say anything she just simply gave him a pat on his hand while he kept looking around as if he knew something were going to happen. And his thoughts weren't wrong something big was going to occur.
--Old Konoha Hospital--
"Answer me please." Sasuke whispered.
"I was doing my job as a priestess that's all I feel no sentimental connection with Naruto at all, the only
one I have feelings for is you Sasuke you stole my heart and you took over me like you can't imagine you turned my life upside down, I fell in love you in such way I can't even explain and all this time it's been torture I don't want to cry myself to sleep any more."Sakura replied crying.
Sasuke's eyes were guilt ridden because he had not realized the extent to which he had hurt her. And now as she spoke to him it felt like his soul was being torn to pieces so he simply wrapped his arms around her holding her tightly.
"Please forgive me Sakura." He whispered.
--Park--
Ume sat next to Kiba while she was petting Akamaru she was simply too tired and she leaned on his shoulder for support. Her eyes were turning a light color and she seemed that her already light skin was turning even lighter.
"Kiba-kun can I sleep for a while in your lap?" She asked.
"Of course you can Ume-chan." He replied and made space for her.
--Old Hospital--
Sasuke kept looking at Sakura with a smile feeling relieved that she had already forgave him with no need of words only with a simple smile and kiss on the forehead. They had finally made peace but then something threatened to ruin the peace the wind started to blow very strongly which made her lose their balance, Sasuke managed to keep his footing but Sakura tumbled backwards and she fell back and off the building but Sasuke was holding onto to her hand and Sakura was dangling in the air holding on to Sasuke's arm.
"Please don't let me go please." Sakura whispered crying.
"I'll never let you go I would die rather than let go of the person that I love." He told her as she held to him but her grip was starting to fail in the process of pulling her up then she fell.
Sasuke watched in horror as Sakura was about to plummet to her death bellow. Bu he couldn't stop watching when in mid air Sakura's body stopped and it went up covered by some strange light he just kept watching as a pair of angel wings appeared from her back she then flew towards him and landed on the edge of the building looking at him seriously.
"Wake up." She whispered and she started walking towards him slowly ruffling her feathers the noise it was making made Sasuke cover his ears in pain.
"Stop it this hurts." He cried out.
Sakura mouthed the words again and kept looking at him. When suddenly Sasuke screamed and a pair of black wings emerged from his back splattering blood everywhere and he fell to the floor weakened by the effort looking at Sakura and he smiled Sakura walked in front of him and helped him up.
--Park--
"Ume what's wrong?" Kiba whispered holding her when blood splattered on his face and he saw emerging from Ume's back white wings that seemed to glow with the night.
Ume looked up at him and gasped when she saw the blood on his not knowing it came from her back.
"Kiba where did all that blood come from?" She asked trembling.
"Your back you have wings I can't believe you're an angel." He replied marveled as she opened her eyes widely.
"I am." She whispered with a questioning glance while he nodded with smile not bothering to wipe her blood of his face.
--Hospital--
Itachi stood up leaning against the wall slowly starting to walk when he almost would have fallen face first if Shizune wouldn't have caught him in her arms.
"Itachi-kun what's wrong?" She murmured when black wings sprouted from his back covered in blood.
"Nothing is wrong." He said when he saw a black feather fall to the floor with traces of blood.
"Your voice is back." Shizune said happily.
Itachi nodded and stood up without any aid as Shizune looked at him stunned and she outstretched her hand to him.
"Not a word to anyone." He whispered as she slowly nodded in agreement.
--Hyuuga Mansion--
Neji had gone through the excruciating pain to turn into an angel as Tenten looked horrified at him.
"I've never been in so much pain not since the rain of blood." He whispered.
"Is this what you meant when you said something was going to happen tonight?" Tenten asked looking at his white eyes.
"Yes now there's only one missing one half of the mirror angels I just saw it." He replied having seen the future while his wings made their appearance.
"Mirror angels, wait there only two people called the mirror." Tenten said.
"Yes the twins only one is missing." He explained looking at her.
--Uchiha House--
Deidara held on to Itsuka's naked body as she cried in pain on his chest he looked down at her back and saw two bumps starting to pierce the flesh.
'Itsu-chan what are you un?' He thought as wings broke through the skin causing blood to fall everywhere much to Deidara's dismay.
"Deidara." She screamed looking down at her bloodied body.
When he looked around pretty much the whole room was covered in blood. He looked at himself he looked like if he had just swam in sea of blood a sea of her blood.
"Itsuka sweetie you look gorgeous with wings." Whispered as she looked up at him confused.
Deidara directed her to the mirror so she could look at herself and that's when she saw the wings.
"I'm covered in blood I feel weird you want to draw me like this?" She asked him while he nodded slyly.
Itsuka simply nodded and Deidara started to get his sketch book.
--Old Hospital--
Sasuke and Sakura sat on the edge of the hospital looking at the landscape not a word had passed through them when Sasuke took her hand and kissed it.
"Sasuke-kun its very cold here." She whispered.
Sasuke didn't say anything he just cupped her chin and pressed a kiss upon her lips and he slowly started nibbling on her lower lip. Sakura opened her mouth slowly allowing Sasuke's tongue to dart through her mouth exploring every corner with a relish. Sakura fought back with her own tongue they kept going until they stopped to gasp for air.
"Sakura I never knew you could kiss like that." He said looking at her surprised.
"When your possessed by angels who are ages old and apparently they were lovers it tends to rub off on you." Sakura replied.
"Well its getting very late I should get you home." Sasuke said and jumped down Sakura looked down and he flew up doing some sort of back flip.
Sakura laughed and jumped her wings flapping in the air gracefully. As Sasuke took her hand they left to the shrine.
"Sasuke can you stay with me tonight?" Asked Sakura
"Yes." Sasuke replied with a smile.
Man the chapter had its share of blood didn't it but oh well makes sense and man If any of you have seen Bram Stolkers Dracula starring Gary Oldman you'll probably recognize the scene were Itsuka turns into an angel if you haven't it goes kinda like this: this girl Lucy gets killed by Dracula when she dies blood splatters all aorund the room it's kinda weird but oh well works for me and I wonder tell me who should Itsuka end with should she rekindle her romance with Kakashi, or hook up with Deidara since Shino well freak that tell me and I'll do the pairing that's more popular
