Enjoy the show~
Naruto awoke to a loud yell. Before he had even gotten the chance to open his eyes, Kiba had his hands around his throat and pushed him against the ground with full-force.
"You fucking imbecile!" Kiba screamed and Naruto smelled the ever-present smell of blood extremely close to his face. It took a while for him to remember last night, when he had been thriving for more of the metal-scented liquid and gone for the brunette's arm.
"Hey, at least I didn't bite your neck, right?"
"You freak! What do you think Hinata's gonna say when she sees this?!"
"What, just tell her Kurenai did it."
"Kurenai-sama always bites my hand, you retard!"
"Hinata doesn't know that."
"Hinata knows that Kurenai-sama always bites in the same place!"
"Then just tell her she had a change of mind. People have that all the time."
"I hope for YOUR well-being that she buys it, scarface! If she doesn't..." Kiba let his sentence drag on threateningly.
"Then what? You know I'm stronger than you."
"You're obviously starved to death, else you wouldn't do something like this! You're weak, Uzumaki-boy! Now get the fuck away from my bed!"
Naruto was ready to fling himself at the Inuzuka, but Sasuke held him back and muttered, "Don't get yourself into bad situations. Think of what Kakashi-sensei would say if you beat the shit outta dogbreath."
The blonde didn't say anything for a while, but eventually mumbled, "I don't give a shit what Kakashi-sama thinks."
"Isn't it him who gave you his blood last night?"
"How would you know?"
"I know that you wouldn't have had the strength to make it back to our room if he hadn't."
"He only gave my a little. Not enough to dull my senses by far. I couldn't sleep."
"You fell asleep next to Kiba's bed; I think you were tired enough."
"I was tired, yeah. I just couldn't sleep."
"It's just the kick, Naruto. Ecstacy and extreme alertness and awareness is one of the things you'll have to deal with when you take in another's blood."
"Yeah."
"So, let's go fetch ourselves some breakfast, shall we?"
-R-
Most humans didn't go near the vampires during meals, because they were well-aware of the fact that they would way rather have a glass of blood with their eggs than water or coffee.
Naruto was a milk-drinker. Sasuke preferred coffee.
"And what do you gents have later?" Sakura asked as she, Ino, Tenten, Sai and Shikamaru joined them at their table.
"Economy," Sasuke answered as Naruto nibbled on a piece of toast.
"Ugh, Kakuzu-sensei is so boring. Bad luck," Ino replied.
"Beats Physics. I really don't like learning from my own mentor," Shikamaru added, leaning his head on the table.
"That's cos you've got to stay awake," Naruto said, poking the teen in the cheek to see if he was still awake.
"At least I'll get to sleep afterwards. We get English from Zabuza-sensei. He's even less motivated than Genma-sensei."
"You guys are lucky. We start with History from Iruka-sensei and then we've got Chem from Itachi-sensei."
"Oh, Tenten, you've got no clue how lucky you are," Naruto disagreed, "we may start with Economy, but we've got two hours of Maths after that."
"After each other?"
"Yeah.." Naruto sighed.
"Poor boy," Sakura smirked evily, "you're gonna need something zingy to keep you happy, then, don't you think?" She reached her hand over the table and turned her wrist to his mouth, nodding as though she were a mentor herself.
Sasuke and Shikamaru smirked.
"Better take the chance while you still can; Kakashi's late for breakfast again, but if he walks in and sees you..." Sasuke didn't finish the sentence for the better, and Naruto took that as approval and permission to let himself have a morning treat.
He took her hand and leaned over the table a little to penetrate her soft, young skin, with his sharp little fangs. She smiled even broader Sai looked around for his mentor before doing the same with Ino.
Sakura giggled before mischieveously noting, "Now you're in my debt, Naruto-kun."
Naruto knew exactly what she meant by that and reached his arm out across the table for her. Her stumpr, smaller teeth cut right through his flesh like tiny razors and a drop of blood landed on a slice of toast on the plate beneath his wrist.
Ino grinned as Sai fed her the slice of toast and only Shikamaru felt left-out. Sasuke had never felt that hunger for the blood of his friends, because the respected Uchiha clan only strives for the blood of Uchiha. So he simply sipped at his coffee, eyes shut contently as he basked in the serenity of his ground coffeebeans.
"You kids know it's a rule not to have any blood before midday, right?"
"I-Ibiki-sensei!" Ino sputtered.
"I suggest you all stop whatever you're doing and behave like normal students before I get you all expelled."
"It shall not happen again, Ibiki-sama," Sai apologized to his mentor, eye downcast as Ino's hand slipped from his grasp.
"Naturally. If it does, don't even think about coming back here."
"Yes, sir."
When the rule-bound sensei was out of sight, Naruto leaned back in his chair and sighed. "No fun at this place at all. We can't do anything!"
"It is to be expected, though," Sasuke sighed as well. "For humans and vampires to study under the same roof... The whole reason for this school was just so vampires could get a good job, as well."
"Still.. we should be allowed to have some fun!"
"I think so too, but their policy is that if you want to have fun, you're better off scowering the streets for some poor people to drink from," Shikamaru replied.
"Jeesh! They're acting like it's a sin to be a vampire!"
"Not so loud, Naruto," Sakura hushed him.
"Think about it," the blonde insisted, though, "we could kill each and every one of them if we wanted to, and yet we're still listening to them like obedient little birds in the clutches of a cat."
"We're not listening to them," Sasuke said, "we're listening to the higher-ups. The vampires who believe we should live together in peace. We would be nothing without the humans."
"How so?"
"Ugh, I don't feel like going into details. This is stuff we'll only learn in like two years or so. All in all, don't worry about it for now." Sasuke set down his empty coffee cup and stood up. "I'm gonna go get myself ready for Economy. You coming?"
"Yeah."
-R-
"Hurry up, Naruto," Sasuke demanded impatiently.
"Yeah, yeah."
"Seriously, how long does it take to take a piss?"
"You go ahead. I'll catch up to you. Save me the seat by the window."
"Whatever. Be on time."
"Yeah."
Sasuke shut the door to the boys' bathroom behind himself and Naruto lifted his feet up against the wall of his cabin, fingers shaking as he forced himself to take another pill. Just like with the last one, though, he was forced to stand up and chuck the contents of his breakfast in the toilet along with the little blue pill. A drop of sweat slid down his forehead and he took three at a time, but the same happened all over again.
"Calm down, Naruto," he whispered to himself, "it'll be okay. Control yourself."
He took another one, but it was forced out of his body once more.
"Sakura gave you some this morning. It'll be okay. You'll just ask Chouji for a plasma pack during recess."
The thought of the bag with the red fluid had him emptying whatever was left in his stomach; basically stomach acid and other fluids.
He swung the bathroom-door open and tightened his grasp on the little tin box with devilish blue pills inside. He leaned his hands on the edge of the sink and stared at his reflection, seeing nothing but the hopelessness and hunger in his eyes.
He washed his face and took a deep breath. "One more try," he forced himself, shoving another pill down his throat and swallowing as much water as he could while doing so. When he was sure it was in, he felt something was off, and five seconds later the pill was back in the sink, lodging up the drain.
"Screw it!"
-Ryan-
"I am so glad that's over," Kankurou groaned as he stretched and followed the gang outside into the hallway.
"Kankurou.." Naruto clung to his arm, huffing, "do you, by any chance, have a plasma-pack on you?"
"Nope, sorry Naruto. Maybe Gaara's got one."
"He's got P.E. now. Do you know where Chouji is?"
"He should be on his way to Biology right now. Everything cool, Naruto? You look a lil' pale."
"Yeah. I'm fine. I just need a plasma pack."
"You sure? I thought you were disgusted by those things."
"I am. I just need one."
"Better hurry, then. Maths is gonna start in ten minutes if you want to be on time."
"Shall I go with you?" Sasuke offered.
"No, that's alright. I'll go by myself."
"'Kay. See you later."
"See ya'."
-R-
When Naruto spotted Chouji at the entrance for Biology, he almost freaked out and started screaming the brunette's name, but he managed to control himself and head over to his mate quickly.
"Chouji!" he clung to the boy's big scarf, "I need a plasma pack!"
"Sure, Naruto."
"Come, gimme gimme, quick."
"Oh, now?"
"Well of course now! When else, at Christmas?"
"Sorry Naruto, I haven't gotten any on me right now. D'you want a blood pill instead?"
"No. I can't take them. Do you know anybody here that has one inst-"
"Uzumaki!"
"-ead? Huh? Oh, Kakashi-sama. What appears to be the problem, sir?" He straightened himself out as best he could, but realized he must've failed pathetically. Chouji understood that this was his qeue to leave and entered the classroom, leaving the two alone in the hallway.
Just before the door shut behind the brunette, Kakashi demanded, "What're you doing here? Which class do you have right now?"
When the door shut, however, he gave the teen a considerate look before lightly slapping his cheek and grabbing his chin jaw, turning his face from left to right. "You look pale. Tried drinking your own blood again, have you?"
"No!" Naruto snapped. "I just needed to find a plasma pack."
"And the blood pills? Still can't take them?"
"No, sir."
"Very well," Kakashi sighed, pulling out an emergency plasma pack from his bag. He handed it to the teen, who clawed at it nervously, trying to find the opening. The older vampire sighed again and shoo'ed his hands away before snapping open the plastic mouthpiece.
Naruto slugged it all down within mere seconds and took a deep breath before anouncing, "That wasn't so bad."
"Great, now get to your classroom."
"Yes, sir."
Midday
"Two hours of Maths after each other is just too much," Kiba complained, tailed by Hinata.
"Totally," she agreed, hanging on his heck and tracing over her bitemarks with her fingertips.
"Sasuke?" Naruto asked when he saw the raven exiting the classroom abruptly. He followed the teen, but found himself shoved away agressively the moment he got close to the teen.
"What's up, man?" he asked, getting worried.
"Where-where's Itachi-sama?" Sasuke asked, shaking a little as he sped up.
"Not you, too! Shit! Well, you're the only one who would know; you're the one who has his blood inside you."
But by mentioning that, Sasuke only got more worked up and Narut found himself having to drag him into the boys' bathroom to try and calm him down.
"How long has it been?" he asked as he went into his pocket.
"A month or so."
"A month?!" Naruto repeated. "You're a fucking fool!"
"I'm not like you, Uzumaki." Sasuke spit in the sink. "I can control my urges."
"No, you're forcing yourself to. That's different." Naruto pushed a little blue pill in the raven's mouth.
Sasuke swallowed it and almost instantly calmed down.
"Okay?" Naruto asked, waiting for confirmation that his friend was alright again.
Sasuke nodded and the two left the bathroom calmly and collected.
"Let's go find Itachi-sensei."
-Ryan-
Naruto watched silently as his Chemistry teacher took a strand of his friend's hair between his thumb and index finger and stared deeply into Sasuke's starving eyes. After a while of staring, he brought his finger to his mouth and bit the back of it. The younger raven remained calm until Itachi nodded and he pressed his lips against his brother's flesh, ravaging his blood happily.
Itachi turned from Sasuke to Naruto and the blonde took it as a warning, so he turned around and left the two alone as his teacher wanted.
-R-
He found himself strolling the academy grounds at a leisure pace, only stopping when he saw Gaara behind a tree with Kaori; a human.
It was only when Gaara's seagreen eyes caught sight of him and he stopped sucking her neck abruptly, that he realized he had been staring and he turned away.
"Well come over here, then. You already gave me away."
Kaori giggled. "Gaara-sama, please, you act like I'm a bunny for the fox."
Gaara licked the trail of blood that had oozed out of the holes in her neck up and looked at Naruto, grinning lightly. Naruto instantly understood, without the redhead having to say a word, that that was precisely what she was.
"Here, you can have her. I have no use for her anymore."
"But, Gaara-sama, you said you would turn me into a vampire!"
"Do you want me to kill you?" he replied, voice thunderous, yet still icy cold.
She understood the message and turned her gaze from Gaara to Naruto, almost expectant, yet still pleading.
"Go ahead," Gaara encouraged him, "us purebloods need more than ordinary vampires, do we not?"
Naruto accepted and knealed down beside the brunette girl, placing his lips on the holes in her neck Gaara had already created for him. Feeling an intense rush and wave of pleasure over his body, he opened his shut eyes to look at Gaara questionably while still drinking.
"They say I have a gift," Gaara said, like he understood what Naruto was confused about, "I can pick out the tastiest humans with the finest blood."
Naruto pulled his lips from the girl's neck, noticing that her eyes were already rolling backwards in their sockets. "So you're a sniffer?"
"No. Sniffers do it with their noses. And much less accurately, too, might I add. Why did you stop? Does she not suit your liking, anymore?"
"She might die if I continue."
"Does it matter?"
"I think it does."
"Very well. I shall not argue with another pureblood."
"Do you do this a lot? Feed off humans on school grounds, I mean."
"I do it more than you can count. How else can we remain satisfied? Those vampires do not comprehend how strong we can be once we have met our needs."
"Do you mean... you kill those that see you?"
"Naturally. I can not risk getting caught, can I now?"
"..I guess not." Naruto had gotten uncomfortable and stood up. "Look, my friend's waiting for me. I gotta' go. See ya'."
"Uzumaki Naruto," Gaara said, before the blonde could turn around. "You will be silent, shall you not?"
"Of course, Sabaku no Gaara. I can keep my mouth."
"Good. I believe you shall find yourself extremely content tonight."
"Huh?"
But Gaara had already stood up and disappeared out of sight.
"He's fast... is it because he's a trueblood as well?"
-R-
"Where were you?" Sasuke asked as Naruto pushed his way through the students in the vampire lounge.
"Busy. Are you feeling better?"
"Much."
"I can tell. What do we have later?"
"P.E. Then History."
"'Kay."
-R-
The girls were staring at the vampire boys during gym, drooling all over the basketball court as they showed off their lean, beautiful bodies. Little did they know that these vampires were the same monsters that were ready to kill them at any time and it wasn't their good looks that held them back.
They all thought vampires were holy spirits because they were stunning. They thought plasma packs were the big stuff and their pills were to keep them happy. But the big stuff was pumping through their bodies at the very moment.
Meanwhile, Gai-sensei was busy pulling Neji off a pack of girls, who didn't even realize that the vampire was baring his fangs. It was hard, surrounded by a group of beautiful necks. It was just like holding up a buffet before a man who hadn't eaten in years and wasn't allowed to have a single thing.
"Twenty laps!" Gai-sensei ordered.
"Yes, Gai-sama."
Neji knew very well that his mentor would reward him later on and that his desires would be fulfilled.
It was moments like these Naruto wished Kakashi was a little milder and a little more like Gai-sensei.
-R-
Iruka-sensei was Ino's and Shino's mentor. But, then again, anybody who asked him to be his charge would be accepted. Iruka was one of the only mentors who would accept any charge. All the others had their charges assigned to them.
Naruto wouldn't let anyone know, but History actually really interested him. Iruka-sensei was extremely good at turning History into a story and he definitely enjoyed stories. Being it so that he grew up as an orphan, he was extremely intrigued by stories, since he has only heard very few of them.
Sai, on the other hand, was falling asleep next to him. Sasuke was on his right, for once not being the perfect student and not paying any attention at all.
Naruto, who had for the first class in his career of being a student, taken an isle-seat instead of a window-seat and was listening intently until the bell rang.
-R-
"Dudes, since it's friday, the guys are heading for Devils Heart, you guys coming along?"
Naruto turned to Sasuke and Sai, who both nodded. "Yeah, sure!"
"'Kay! Be there at eight!"
The three agreed and left the classroom to get ready to head out into town. When it was six, they were all standing at the Main Gates of the school, dressed in outfits that only proved to show off their beautiful bodies and godly muscles more. While Sasuke wore a medium long blue Uchiha coat, Naruto preferred a full-length black leather one underneath which he wore a black T-shirt with flashy blue and orange sprays and prints on it.
The rest of the team was clad in their usual colours, only once again, in clothes that graced their bodies gorgeously. Sai had his arm around Ino's waist, Shikamaru had his flung over Sakura's shoulder, Neji had his in Tenten's hand and Kiba held his arm against Hinata's back, clutching to her as though she were a lifeline.
If Naruto or Sasuke wanted a girl to walk with them, they could have snapped their fingers and had a pack of girls, vampire or human, at their feet, but what was the fun of a guys night out if you were tailed by girls?
-R-
After a while of hanging out in town, they all headed for the café called "Devils Heart", known to be a vampire café.
The lights were all dimmed and the only light present was there for decoration. They could all see in the dark, but the neon signs and the glimmering shine from the blue lights around the bar only proved to radiate a relaxing atmosphere.
Vampires were feasting on each other around and on top of the pool tables in the back and the ones actually drinking something all had a beverage that was mixed with blood.
"I'll have a bloody Mary. What you, guys? Pick anything, it's on my tab."
"Thanks, Kiba! Sherry for me, lady."
And the night continued with its festivities until it was nine-thirty and time to head back.
On their way back
They made their way through an alley, only to spot some dude with a green-and-white checked scarf leaning against the wall, looking over to them almost like he expected them.
"What can I do you for, boys?"
"Nuthin', get the fuck away!" Kiba barked at him, making his way over to him tipsily, about to punch him in the face when the man stopped his fist.
Naruto, who was clearly ready for some action, made his way over to the guy as well, kicking him straight in the gut.
"You guys go ahead, I'll catch up to you later," he told the others.
"A'right, seeee you..later!"
"Yeah, yeah."
He kicked the man in the stomach a couple of times before punching him in the face, laughing as he did so. "You humans are scum!" he cried out to the sky, laughing his ass off.
"Oh, yeah?" the guy coughed, standing up. Naruto eyes spread open wide and he was surprised that someone who had suffered such blows could still stand up. "I was sent.. by Gaara-sama."
Naruto grew curious and he grabbed the man by his scarf before shoving him against the alley-wall. "That so?"
"Yes. You won't be so disappointed by us humans anymore, once.." the man took a deep breath before stretching his arm out to the blonde, unable to finish the sentence.
Naruto grabbed his wrist and pressed his nose against the man's skin, taking in the scent of his blood. "Hmm.. for a man.. you have very sweet blood. Even sweeter than my Mentor's. You're right; you're worth mentioning a few times."
The guy smiled lightly, relaxing slightly upon hearing that. If he was worth it to be mentioned a couple of times, it meant that he wanted him to stay alive. And he eased by that comment slightly. He was shocked to shit, though, when Naruto suddenly released his hand and pushed his head aside, instead, going straight for his neck.
"AB.. I've got to remember that one."
The man's body shook as though he'd just seen a ghost and he was still stuck in such a terror that he couldn't find the strength to even think of getting up again.
Naruto knealed back down and stroked the man's cheek lightly. "Yes... I wouldn't mind drinking your blood every day."
And then he left.
Second chapter's done, how is it? did you like it? If you have time to reply I'd be appreciate it. LolThank you and see you next time!
