Crimson Moon

Naruto burst out of the base. "Prince Naruto!" Gaara said as he ran out after Naruto. "Leave me alone Gaara. I have somewhere to go" Naruto said. "Naruto what's going on? You've changed, a lot. Anyone can see that. You used to be ruthless, evil, heartless…The perfect vampire prince… Now you're kinder and calmer. You're hiding something" Gaara said. Naruto walked away. "I don't have time for this crap. I'll be back whenever" he said and left. He got to Mei's base on time and Madara was outside. "Right on time" he said. "Shut up and let my friend go Stalker" Naruto said. "And if I don't?" Madara asked.

"Then I'll break every single bone in your body" Naruto said. Naruto tried to punch him, but he dodged it before Naruto came close.

"Keep in mind I'm a hell lot older than you are, so you can try, but fail. I know every trick and power a vampire can drag out"

Naruto was quiet. "So, why'd you decide to befriend a human, a hunter no less?" Madara said.

"It was a whim, nothing more, nothing less"Naruto said.

Madara shook his head laughing. 'Bastard!' Naruto thought. "You weren't paying attention before on the phone were you? I've been watching since day one. That includes everything up till now. You had a crush on the Hyuuga girl since 7th grade; I found that out from one of my pawns. Karin and Tayuya were working for me all along. I even set it up so Hyuuga Neji would be where he was when Hinata and you met. Your father and you were told about the Hunters so you would kill them. Of course you had to talk to Hinata longer, which tipped the balance of the fight to the Hunters' favor. If you were to just kill her the Hunters would've been dead" Madara said.

Naruto stood there shocked. "You planned all that? Why the hell are you telling me all this?" he said. "Because Naruto, you're going to help me take over the Night world if you want your friend back. Yes, this is a typical trade, but if you listen no one will get hurt" Madara said. 'Fuck! He got me! I don't like it but…' Naruto thought. "Fine, but just remember, I'm not a pawn. You can't control me" he said. "Of course. It's going to be a simple task. You just have to give me the Moon Aura stone you have around your neck" Madara said. Naruto took his necklace off. "Fine. I have no choice at this point. Here take it and give me my friend back" he said and tossed it at him. Madara caught it. "She's in there. Pleasure doing business with you, Prince Naruto" Madara said and split into bats. They took off.

Naruto went into Mei's base (which has been completely empty since Hanabi was rescued) and found Hinata unconscious. He shook her awake. "Hinata get up!" he yelled. She woke up. "My head hurts…" she said. "You got hit on the head?" he asked. She sat up. "No, from your yelling. It was right in my ear" she said. He hugged her. "Thank goodness you're okay! I was worried sick! Don't ever walk home alone again!" he said. "Naruto, you're hugging me too tight!" she said. He let go. "Sorry. I'll walk you home" he said.


The next day Naruto met Hinata in school. He hugged her. "Good morning Naruto" she said. "Good morning. Are you okay? No one attacked you right?" he said. "Nothing happened…" she said as he let go. They walk to class. "Naruto, you have to calm down. I know yesterday was a little crazy, but I'll be fine. Worry about yourself" she said. "But you're-"he said. "Don't say 'human' or 'a girl'." She said. "You're my friend. I'm allowed to worry" he said. She was quiet.

Sasuke stood outside the classroom. "Naruto, we have a problem" he said. "With what? A test?" Naruto asked. "Hinata, Danzo is going to send another member to your base because of what happened. He's also a spy since Danzo has no clue what you're doing. Try not to get close to him" Sasuke said. "I'll take your advice" Hinata said. "Okay, not that that's out of the way, can I borrow your notes for English Sasuke?" Naruto said. "No you can't!" Sasuke said. "Darn it…" Naruto said. Hinata laughed.

Suddenly Suigetsu came up behind Sasuke and scared him by screaming. "What the hell? Hozuki! You asshole! What did you do that for?" Sasuke yelled. "What else am I supposed to do when my mom drops me off early?" Suigetsu asked. Hozuki Suigetsu had white hair with a light-blue tint to it and purple eyes. He wore a school uniform. "Sasuke, you're no fun" Suigetsu said. Jugo grabs Suigetsu from the back of the shirt collar and lifts him up. "Stop annoying people" he said. Jugo had spiky orange hair and orange eyes. He wore a school uniform too. "Put me down! Why do you pick on me? It's no fair you're taller!" Suigetsu yelled. "Hi guys!" Naruto said as Jugo put Suigetsu down. "Hi Naruto. What's up?" Suigetsu asked. "The sky" Naruto said. They both laughed. "Let's get into the classroom" Hinata said. 'I have to tell her at one point before it's too late' Naruto thought. The next several days are normal. (Well, their normal)


One day in June on the weekend at the Hunter base the new member came over. He had short ink-black hair, ink black eyes, and extremely pale skin. He wore black. "Hi there. I'm Sai. Danzo sent me to assist you" he said. "Nice to meet you. I'm Tenten" Tenten said. "Nice to meet you too Ugly" Sai said. She slapped him. "He'll fit in just fine" Sasori said. Naruto burst in. "Hinata! I need study help! Finals are coming up and I think I'll fail!" he said. "How can you call yourself a man if you don't have the balls to study for a simple test" Sai said. "Who asked you?" Naruto yelled. "Alright. We'll study at the park. It seems calmer there" she said. They left. "Thanks, but that's not what I wanted to get you out of there for. I need to tell you something important" he said. "You dropped my cell phone in my soda?" she said. "What? No! Not that! When Madara kidnapped you I had to give him the Moon Aura stone"he says. "What's that?" she asked. "It's to control vampires on the night of the Crimson Moon. Crimson Moon is a night when all vampires go on a rampage. There's a chemical found in the moon that, when filtered through the Earth's ozone, causes vampire to go on a bloodlust rampage. The sun is a charger for that chemical" Naruto said. "You know all that yet you can't remember a thing in school?"Hinata asked. "You're not angry?"Naruto asked. "Not really. But if Madara has this thing our first priority should be to get it back"Hinata said.

"How do we do that?" Naruto asked. "Not sure? How much time do we have until the night of the Crimson Moon?"she said.

"About a month" he said.

"Oh man... That's not good. Don't you have another one?"she said.

"No. The Elder Vampire might know something"

"Who?"

"The Elder Vampire is one of the longest living vampires alive. She'll probably know something. Though, she's an old grouch"

"Well we have some chance right? Where is she?"

"She's in the next town over"

"I guess we have to go there now"

"What about your brother?"

"He'll get over it"

They got there two hours later. "Tsunade is kind of mean"Naruto said. "I'm kind of not surprised" Hinata said. They find the house in the woods. "This place is pretty big..."she said. "Tsunade's lived here for awhile. Of course, this city is under vampire control"he said as they went through the gate. "To think there's a city under vampire control right next to ours..." she said. Naruto knocked on the door. Suddenly a woman opens the door. "Why do I smell a human?" she yelled. 'Holy shit! She's insane!' Hinata thought. "Elder Tsunade! Don't worry! Hinata's okay!" Naruto said in a panic. Tsunade looked at Hinata. "Oh! Okay" she said. They all go in. "This is the Elder Vampire Tsunade"Naruto said. "She looks in her 30s"Hinata said. "1730s is more like it" he said. "What was that?" Tsunade asked. "N-Nothing!" he said. "Why are you here? How'd you screw up?" she asked. "Well, I lost the Moon Aura stone...to Madara"Naruto said. "Idiot!"she yelled. "We came here to see if there are any others" Hinata said. "There's only one other, but it's been missing for years"Tsunade said. "We need it!" Naruto said. "I'll try to use my powers to find it. Come back tomorrow alright" Tsunade said.

They got up. "Naruto, can I talk to you alone?"Tsunade asked. "Sure" he said. Hinata waited outside. "Naruto, have you ever heard of the saying, 'Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end; then stop' ?"she asked. "Your point?" he asked. "Hinata is human, sooner or later she'll die. On the other hand, you'll live forever. Leave her before your heart is torn apart. Just go back to the way things were"she said. "Have you heard this quote: 'I can't go back to yesterday - because I was a different person then'?" he said and left.


This was probably the shortest chapter ever. Sorry. I had a lot to deal with. Plus Microsoft Word wasn't working so I had a hard time finishing. How long has it been since I started this? I forgot. XD Anyway, does anyone know any good video games? I finished Kingdom Hearts and don't have anything to do. I signed up for Deviantart, but that's when I have a lot of time. I had an old account on there, but the new one is better. It's kohakuume6.
