I can't believe I can actually keep this going on with my limited writing skill. Tks for supporting me everyone.
Now let's get back to the story.
Chapter 3:
Night at Konoha high…
"Hah….Hah…"- panting was heard through the night, a boy was running for his life. The hall in Konaha High was vast and empty at night, students weren't supposed to be at school at a time like this , well except for those who loved breaking rules anyway.
'I….hah…was supposed…hah…to be at the party in the gym right now…'- the boy thought bitterly, he kept on running, 'But…hah..hah…instead I have to run for my…life..from…THAT…thing..!'. He turned at a dark corner, looked back behind him to find the thing had already disappeared. He exhaled in relief still looking behind but…
"Thought you have already escaped? How naïve…"- a voice whispered saccharinely from his front, it was a woman's voice and it was seductive. The boy turned around panicking, in front of him was probably one of the most beautiful but disgusting woman in the world. Her face was decorated with cracks with something glowing yellow underneath, her hair dancing like flame, her eyes blood-red and fangs were popping out from her upper lip. She was grinning, her teeth red from blood or some other things, he wasn't sure.
"Please, don't hurt me, I'll do anything. Anything to please you, just spare my life, PLEASE!"- the boy pleaded, his voice quivering.
"Aw…You're so pitiful, I'm touched and all, but you know what?" the woman stepped forward, nearing the boy, smiling menacingly, " I. Don't. Like. Cowards."- the woman finished, emphasizing each word slowly. Before the poor boy could reply, the woman had swiftly moved towards his neck, tore open the artery. His eyes widened, his last word was:
"ARGHHH!"- the lifeless body fell on the cold floor. Then the night fell silent again…
It was amazing how Sasuke's thought could change so fast, that was the first thing he thought of after he woke up in the morning. One moment, he didn't want to have anything to do with the pink haired girl, then he suddenly wanted to figure her out the next. It was confusing to say the least.
After doing his personal matters, Sasuke got down to have his breakfast, 'Yesterday was one of the most confusing day'- he mused mutely to himself. Right about he was about to step in the dining room, his mother called to him loudly, pointing at the television located in front of the dining table, he also noticed his brother and father were looking at it as well.
" Sas-chan! Look! Your school is on, there seems to be a murder of one of the students."- Mikoto said in horror.
That got Sasuke's attention immediately. He turned to the television. It was showing some reporters standing in front of his school, speaking about the incident. In the background, students were making a chaos, police was everywhere, then the scene switched to what was happening inside the hallway.
Sasuke almost puked at the sight of the corpse of the boy but being Sasuke, he controlled his urge pretty well. The boy's neck was tore open violently, his head was almost separated from the neck. The boy- Sasuke recognized as one of the most famous players in school- was in horror, his eyes were the size of a saucer. There was blood everywhere, it stained the wall and the floor an eery but strangely beautiful color of red. Sasuke involuntarily shivered, suddenly feeling cold.
" Sasuke, finish your breakfast and go to school."- His father- Fugaku's voice interrupted Sasuke's stupor.
" Are you crazy? How can you let him go to school after witnessing something like THAT?"- Mikoto almost screeched, but caught herself in time.
" It's the school's matter, not ours. As long as it doesn't affect our son, it's fine."- Fugaku said in a tone signaling finality, giving no room for arguments, he didn't know his son was about to be involved in something he'd never imagined could be real.
Even after the incident, the school was doing quite well, as in the students were doing just fine. Some were crying or mourning, but other than that, everything was normal. As normal as it could be when there was police everywhere and bloodstains on the walls . The group of students who organized the party the night before was interrogated thoroughly by the police. The air inside the school was cold, full of death and grief.
All the students were now in class, waiting for their teachers. All teachers and staffs in the school were being held back to talk to the police and have a meeting, regarding the serious matter.
"Man…I've never thought something like this could happen in the school, with its reputation and all."- Naruto commented, lying on his table. And yes, Konoha High was probably one of the best schools in the nation, but everything has a loop hole. KH 's loop hole was its security, the most fatal one, it was weird when no one had actually bother to check the school's loose security before.
"It's life, Naruto, anything could happen."- Sakura said to him with an almost too calm face, not the least bit affected by the horrid event. She was used to seeing humans' bloody corpses, it wasn't like it was something new. The problem was the ones behind the death, that was what made Sakura felt slightly disturbed about.
' So they're here'- Sakura thought solemnly, 'How intelligent to sniff out the clues so fast, guess I should be more careful then."- she mentally smirked. She was called back to reality when Naruto said something unexpected.
" You know, Sakura-chan, you seem calm about this. Everyone else, regardless the fact if they know the person or not, panicked a little, some even cried."- he said thoughtfully, voicing Sasuke's and the others in their little group's thought as well.
Sakura shrugged carelessly, " I have more important things to care about. And the death of some strangers who doesn't even relate to me is definitely not one of them."- the pink haired girl replied, not caring if she sounded cruel, her face blank and eyes darkened slightly, ' Why care for someone who's meant to be your food? The weaker will be preyed by the stronger, that's the rule.'- she thought maliciously. In this world, Sakura knew well, if you want to live, you have to be stronger than the rest, her race had taught her that and she would live by the rule. Instead of worrying for foolish humans, shouldn't she take the time caring about herself?
Naruto shivered slightly under her cold look and for the first time realized Sakura-chan was not as innocent as she looked, her words ringing in his ears. And the others weren't sure if that was the sweet Sakura they originally thought she was, even if it was just based on appearances.
Today was not as fun as Sakura wished it would be. Just because of one's death, they had to make a fuss out of it. Sakura truly didn't understand the way humans worked, despite having lived with them for more than a century.
Stepping into her average-sized apartment, Sakura decided to chill out a bit until it was time for another hunt. She had been taking a bit too much blood lately but that didn't really affect anything, except for some disappeared people. However, that kind of thing was never of concern for the Haruno girl.
A knock was heard as Sakura was about to dig in her dinner. Muttering some curses under her breath, Sakura stood up to get her unexpected and "uninvited" guest. It turned out that her guest was her long time mentor and mother.
Tsunade- Sakura's mentor and teacher, as well as mother, who was a powerful and respected vampire- didn't bother to wait to be invited inside the house, just marched right in and plopped herself comfortably on the couch. Sakura raised an eyebrow at this absurd action but said nothing. Just as Tsunade opened her mouth to say something, Sakura interrupted her smoothly while on her way to make something the busty blonde woman.
"I know the reason why you're here, Shishou."
" Very well. That saves me the explaining part. So...you're decision regarding this matter is?"- Tsunade asked nonchalantly.
" I think you know what i want. Whatever they're gonna throw at me, I'll accept it all."- Sakura smirked smugly, giving her mentor the cup of tea and plopped herself down on the couch next to the blonde.
"As expected of my student."
"I'm not gonna be their puppet.I don't want any part of their stupid plan, and if i was to do what they're doing, I would revive our proud race with my own way,"- Sakura said slowly, " As for what they're planning now, I know they're just starting another war, and in the process, destroy the rest of the vampires. The humans aren't as stupid as they were before."
" So what is your suggestion then? If we can't do it their way, how do we do it?"- Tsunade asked, not hoping for much since even if the pink haired girl had a plan, she would never act on it anyway. She'd never expect a serious answer from her student, knowing the Haruno's wish to stay away. However, she was taken back by Sakura's answer.
Sakura's looks turned into something evil, something conniving, something mephistophelean.
" Ah...easy, actually. Why don't you just destroy the humans society from the inside and let them do the rest .selves?"- Sakura smiled devilishly, emphasizing the three last words slowly and unexpectedly, mentally shocked to hear the words coming out of her mouth, shocked to know she sounded like she wanted to avenge her long dead mother, even if it was the opposite.
"Now now, calm down, Wild boy. We have all night you know."- Sakura said to a brown haired guy- who was kissing her neck crazily. She was caressing the boy's skin around his smooth neck, licking her lips hungrily. After the talk with Tsunade, Sakura wanted to have blood more than ever, lucky for her today, her prey was some handsome and pretty well-fed guy, not that it mattered much though.
" Hum...I know, but it's hard to control around a beauty."- She could feel his smirk against her cool skin, "You know, your skin is surprisingly cold, are you really human? And you have that unnatural beauty, too. I almost mistook you for a vampire."- the guy said jokingly, moving his hand up the back of her shirt.
"Hm...really."- Sakura's eyes were clouded by blood-thirst and a small part of lust, she was just one centimeter away from biting him, when...Whoosh!
"Ah...sorry for interrupted your meal but we're in a hurry."- sweet voice whispered apologetic words in unapologetic tone.
The guy's body fell helplessly in the Haruno's arms, a knife in the middle of his back, honey-like blood soaked his designer shirt. Innocent emerald eyes narrowed into dangerous slits.
