Crimson Moon

Hinata woke up to Tenten knocking on her bedroom door. She tiredly got out of bed and answered her friend. "What is it Tenten?" she asked. "It's almost one!" Tenten said. "If I didn't wake you up you might've slept through the whole day!" Hinata looked at the clock to see it was 12:45 p.m. "We got home at like, 2:30 this morning. Give me a little longer…" she said rubbing her eyes. "Just get done. I need to explain a few things you missed." Tenten said. "Fine. I'll be out in ten minutes." Hinata said then Tenten left. She quickly got done, not bothering to take a shower since it was so late for that, then when out of her room. She dressed in a purple T-shirt, blue jean shorts, and sandals.

The Vampire hunter base was more like a huge house. It had five floors, each one with three floors that were apartments that vampire hunters had their own rooms. The first floor was just a lobby. The second was a meeting room that was used when vampire hunters from other places went to talk. There was also a basement where all the weapons were kept. The building looked like any other building you'd find in the city, however only vampire hunters were allowed to go in.

She went down to the lobby to see Tenten sitting on the couch with her laptop. "What was it you wanted to tell me?" Hinata asked. "Well to start with all the people in the diner last night died, but it's not like we can do much about that. Traces of the twins' bodies were found as well, but they don't know they were vampires. Basically we were able to keep the existence of vampires and vampire hunters a secret." Tenten said pulling up a few pictures.

Hinata yawned. "Oh…" she said. "If you're not paying attention I'm going to slap you. Anyway, here's what I gathered on Minato. He's forty years old, even if he looks like he's in his thirties. He's said to have a son, but even I haven't found anything. The only Namikazes besides him died. He comes from an elite vampire clan, so he's really strong. That's about it." Tenten said.

"Well whatever…I'm going back to bed." Hinata said and started to walk away. Neji walked down the stairs. "No way Hinata. You have to tomorrow. Summer is over so I have to get a job. Got it?" he said. "I don't want to." She said. "Go to school or I'll drag you there myself!" he said. "O-Okay!" she said scared. "I'll go! I'll go!" She went back to her room scared.

Usually when Neji said things like that, he meant it. Once when he told Hinata to practice shooting a gun or he'd shoot her. He missed on purpose of course, but it still scared the heck out of her.

The next day as Hinata, Tenten, and Kiba walked to school. They wore their school uniforms and crosses. Hinata and Tenten wore white long sleeve dress shirts, red ties, black skirts, and brown boots that reached their knees. Kiba wore a white short sleeve dress shirt, red tie, tan pants, and brown shoes. Each had their own backpack. Hinata had a light purple one, Tenten had a red one with pink heart on it, and Kiba had one that looked like a white dog.

"Hinata, do you have to bring your gun to school?" Kiba asked. "Of course! Some half vampires can do out during the day, so they must go to school too! Vampire hunters should never be too careful! They break God's laws and live forever! They take human blood! We're God's mercenaries who must deliver divine justice to the world by getting rid of vampires! We-!" Hinata said. "Hinata! Cut that out! You sound like your brother!" Kiba yelled. "I did?" she asked. "Your brother lectures you too much…He's brainwashing you." Tenten said.

They got to school ten minutes early. "I'm going to find my locker, see you." Kiba said then ran off. "I'm going too." Tenten said. "See you in sixth period!" She ran off too. Hinata took out the schedule that was sent to her.

'Locker number 665…That's upstairs…' she thought and went there. She found it easily and put her backpack in there. Just as she shut the locker she saw the blonde spiky hair of the boy who had the locker next to hers. She shut it to see Naruto who had locker 666.

'What's he doing here! He's a vampire! He shouldn't be here!' she thought. "Wh-What're you doing here!" she whispered. He looks over. "Oh! It's you. Hinata right?" he said. "Y-Yes. But why're you in school during the day?" she whispered. He shut his locker. "My mother, Uzumaki Kushina, was a half vampire. She could go out during the day. I got that trait from her. Pretty useful huh?" he said. "So you're ¼ human?" she asked. "Yeah." He said. "But the other night your dad said if you two were in the sun you'd die!" she said.

"Well he didn't want anyone to know about me. Why do you think I have my last name 'Uzumaki' instead of 'Namikaze'? It's to hide the fact I'm his son. Besides 'Namikaze Naruto' doesn't sound as cool." He said. "Give me a good reason why I shouldn't tell the other hunters." She said.

He cupped her chin and tilted her face to meet his. "Did you forget our deal already Hinata? If you say even one word about me to your hunter friends I'll suck every drop of blood in your body." He said, showing his fangs as a threat. Her heart raced in a panic. 'He-he would really kill me!' she thought. "I'm not the kind of vampire who won't harm people. In fact I don't care if humans die. To me they're just a life source. So think twice before you try to threaten me." He said then let go of her.

He smiled sweetly. "Anyway, what's your first period class?" he asked. "Y-You just threaten me like that and then act all sweet and nice?" she said. "Well I can't just attack you in pubic. Do you know what would happen if people found out just what I am? I'd be a primary target for tons of vampire hunters and I wouldn't be able to go to school anymore!" he said. She calmed down. "That…That makes sense." She said. "So about your first period class…" he said. "R-Right! I have math first period." She said. "Me too! I have it in room 2204. What about you?" he said.

She looked at her schedule and checked. "S-Same room…"she said. He holds his up next to hers. 'N-No freaking way!' she thought. "Hey! All our classes are the same! Maybe that means we're supposed to be friends!" he said. "You wish!" she said. They went to class, and got stuck sitting next to each other. 'How'd I get stuck with him? Just what did I do to get stuck with him?' she thought.

After school everyone except Hinata and Naruto left the class. "Hey Hinata! Do you think if I ever needed notes you'd lend me yours?" he asked. "What the hell? I hate you! Get it through your thick head!" she said angrily. "I don't care if you hate me. You're stuck with me because of our deal and you can't do a thing about it." He said. She got up and left the room to go to her locker. He followed her. "Why do you hate vampires so much?" he asked. She unlocked her locker and took her backpack out. "Because a vampire killed my parents and little sister!" she said as she slammed her locker shut.

He got his backpack out then shut his locker. "Well I didn't do it so you shouldn't take it out on me…" he said. She looked at him a bit sorry, but quickly looked back. "You're a vampire so it's kind of your fault. Now don't look at me with that sad face." She said then left.

She walked with Tenten and Kiba back to the base. "So, how'd your day go?" Kiba asked. "Great! I made a few new friends and met a few cute guys! What about you Hinata?" Tenten said. Hinata took a second to think about it. "Good I guess." She said. 'How was it good? I had to deal with an annoying vampire! I wish we wouldn't have to hide the fact we're vampires or I'd shoot him!'

It was Saturday at the Vampire hunter base. Everyone was there wearing normal clothing and just doing whatever since it was raining cats and dogs outside. Hinata and Tenten were in the lobby talking when Neji walked down the stairs. "What're you two doing here? Shouldn't you be in school?" he asked. "Neji, have you lost your mind already? It's Saturday. They don't have school." Kimimaro said as he walked up the stairs from the basement, smoking as usual. "It is? Why is it on rainy days I forget things?" Neji said. "Because you're weird." Kimimaro said. He walked over to the window. "You know, the only good thing about rainy days is that vampires hate it too"

"That's odd." Hinata said. "By the way, we're out of bullets." He said. "K-Kimimaro! I told you not to practice shooting today! Now we have to get more!" Neji yelled. "We won't be able to do anywhere for awhile. Just check the weather." Tenten said then turned up the volume on the T.V. "What? It won't stop until tomorrow?" he yelled. "I'll get more bullets. I'm bored anyway." Hinata said as she got up from the couch. "You sure Hinata? The Cryosys is almost across town." Kimimaro asked. "Of course. Neji complains too much when he doesn't have things a curtain way, and I don't want to hear it"

She got her jacket on, grabbed her gun, then left. Cryosys is a store where vampire hunters get all their supplies for their weapons. Only vampire hunters are allowed and must have their license to enter.

She was halfway there when she saw someone in an alley and stopped surprise to see a puddle of blood being washed away by the rain. A dark figure was on the ground gasping for breath. "A-Are you okay?" she asked as she slowly walked over. 'Of course not! He's bleeding! That was a stupid thing to ask!' she thought.

"H-Hinata…" the figure said. 'Th-That sounds like…!' she thought. "Na…ru…to..?" she asked. He looked up from his soaked bangs at her. "Naruto!" she yelled then ran over to him. She helped him up. "What happened to you?" she asked. "I-I'll explain later…But right now I…I need your blood…" he said. "What?" she asked as he moved her coat away from her neck. "I won't take that much. Just enough to heal myself. Please Hinata…I don't want to die now." He said. "O-Okay Naruto…" she said.

His fangs grew out to full size, much bigger than he showed Hinata in school five days before. Her heart raced as he drew closer to her neck, her blood pressure rising in fear. He slowly bit her neck, being as gentle as possible not to hurt her too much than what would happen to any other person. He began to draw up blood. A shooting pain went through Hinata. She tried desperately to keep from pulling away or screaming. That one moment seemed to last forever for the two of them. Naruto gently slid his fangs out of her and they went back to normal size.

Chapter 2 is done! YAY! Chapter 3 will be done as soon as possible.
