Wind ripped ruthlessly through the now quiet street. Her black hair swished about, ferociously whipping around her narrowed eyes. She bared her teeth as the boys grey eyes scanned her face, a smirk gracing his own pale lips. "Sasuke," She spit her anger rising with each moment, "I can smell the blood from here, get out of the way." Sasuke stuck his hands into his pockets and closed his eyes with a smile.

"I figured a vampire could smell it, but you," He paused his voice and face mocking her, "a vampire in hiding? What is the world your from coming to?" She glared at him, the hint of pearly fangs poking out from under her lips. Sasuke's eyes opened and a feral smile crept across his face.

"You have no room to insult me you clan reject." She replied, the words like venom from her mouth. Sasuke's eyes narrowed and his mouth curved into a frown.

"Why you-!"

"What, what exactly am I Sasuke? To you I was obviously nothing but a worthless piece of shit used for your own damn personal enjoyment. Well, listen well, I refuse to live as your personal slave. If it comes down to it, I will kill you." Her eyes narrowed, their once green color now a deep purple. Her fangs now barely overlapped her lips, her tongue running across them lightly. Sasuke's frown returned to a smirk, he had hit a weak spot after all.

Sasuke brought his hands up, his feet spread slightly. Kioko shut her eyes. "It doesn't have to be this way Sasuke." She said, her eyes reopening. Sasuke didn't reply, instead he lunged at her, Sharingan completely over taking his eyes. Kioko shook her head and 'tsked' before bringing her arm up, in one swift movement she was out of the way, one hand wrapped around Sasuke's collar.

He smirked and spun around, his large collar tearing slightly as he spun. He wrapped a hand around her neck, eyes gleaming with blood lust. His curse mark pulsed slightly, he ignored the rippling pain that ran down his spine, instead he stared into the girls eyes, who was surprisingly smirking as well. "You have no chance against me." He bluntly stated.

"Sasuke, why must you always kid yourself by underestimating your opponent. Before it was illegal to unleash my secret, besides, I'm an S-Class now..." She smiled and clenched her fist, "so why the hell should I care!" She hit him square in the jaw. Sasuke took a few steps back, his hand now removing some of the blood that had trickled down his chin.

"Your pathetic Uchiha."

With Kin and Itachi

Itachi raised an eyebrow at the girl who had seemingly just gave up. She was leaning against the wall, her black hair hanging loosely in her face. Itachi let a feral smile run across his face, the pain of others was such a lovely sight for him. He let his eyes graze the body before turning around. "It'd be best for you to just stay down, unless you want to see the Mangekyou close hand." With those words he exited the rooms.

He groaned slightly, rubbing his shoulders at the slight pain. He looked around, people were screaming and running. Itachi, after resisting the urge to trip someone, walked against the crowd. People moved aside at the sight of the black and red robe. He came to a stop, his eyes smiling at the sight before him.

"Kioko?" His voice was curious yet full of amusement.

Kioko turned toward him, her purple eyes gleaming in the sun.

"Well it's time for the show."

Itachi stood, his face bent into an amused look. Kioko had finally shown him what her 'secret' was, and to tell the truth, he liked this animalistic Kioko better. It made her more, desirable He focused his attention on the girl, his eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze wandered to his little brother. He gave a disturbingly malicious grin as his stained red eyes looked over the younger boy. There was no way he could pull through, this was the end, and he was to blind to see that the cold darkness of death was approaching.

"Those who do not know their power will be ruled by it. The shadows of the spirit will turn the week willed mad with power. The individual will destroy everything, and the gods will not be able to stop it."

Itachi thought on those words briefly, that phrase had been what the elders had told him many years ago, and look at him now. His own power had driven him to kill his clan. Of course, Kioko was already a halfway desirable woman to him, her being out of her mind with power and darkness made him want her more. He smirked and lowered his head, black hair covering his red eyes.

Kioko's head cocked to the side, her bangs trailing down her cheek bones, tracing the curves of her face. "Sasuke, there's no point in even putting up a fight," She drew a long skinny halberd from a sheath that hung loosely over her shoulder, "resign yourself to death, or suffer." Her words were dark and filled with hatred.

Sasuke looked a bit surprised, he had failed to take notice to the sheath before. He glanced over and growled under his breath at the sight of his smirking brother. Apparently the girl spoke the truth, yet the thought of backing down seemed to cowardly. He frowned slightly at the sound of a woman calling his name. He flipped around.

"K-Kin?"

His voice shook slightly at the sight of the girl, he held back the urge to rush for her.

Kin was more of a mess then Itachi had left her. Small but deep gashes found their place all ofer her arms, red liquid dripping slowly. She groaned slightly as she staggered forward, blood streaming from her mouth. She paused and lurched forward, falling to her knees. "Orochimau..." She whispered before completely collapsing.

Sasuke looked upon his fallen comrade with shivering pupils. His fists clenched in anger and remorse, leaving her alone was an obvious mistake. His eyes darted back to Kioko who stood with a rather smug look on her face. He growled lightly before making his way over to Kin, his facial expression mixed between aggravated and worry.

Itachi walked over to Kioko and put a hand on the halberd, his pale hand gleaming against the polished hilt. "It's time to go." He whispered pulling on the halberd. Kioko gave him a questioning look before giving a sigh and putting her halberd away. Her eyes remained purple as she followed Itachi, their destination unknown to her.

A few days later, with Sasuke and Kin

The smell of death and cleaning products filled the white halls. The perpetual coldness of the ANBU hospital was no friend of anyone. The beeping of a breathing machine echoed in the eery silence. Kin lay in a white bed, her arms wrapped and stuck, Sasuke sat next to her, his head lowered, eyes covered. She opened an eye and looked over at Sasuke.

"S-Sasuke?"

The boy jumped up at the sound of his name. He about flew from his chair to Kin's side, his eyes glowing slightly. "Y-your awake!?" She opened her mouth to reply but was sadly cut off. "You idiot! I've been worried sick for the past few days! What the hell happened to you!?" Kin raised an eyebrow then chuckled. Sasuke was protective over the few people he could hold close, then again, he'd lost his whole family so why wouldn't he.

"It's not a laughing matter Kin! You could have died! Then-!" He cut himself off and looked away, his cheeks turning a slight shade of pink.

"Sasuke, stop yelling, I'm sorry." She sat up and gave a weak smile. Sasuke flipped around and without speaking a word, he pressed his lips against hers. Kin's eyes widened slightly, she instinctively kissed back, their tongues engaging in a rough dance. Sasuke pulled away and turned, his cheeks red.

"Be careful from now on Kin."
