It had been almost a week since Sasuke last saw Sakura, Kakashi, or any one from that realm. Naruto acted like the fight between he and Sakura never occurred. Nobody left him be about it. Without Sakura, Karin had made hundreds of attempts to convince Sasuke back to her. He didn't even bat an eyelash. He was more worried about the sudden disappearance of his love. Was she that badly hurt or just avoiding him? He sighed as he flopped down on his bed, enjoying his day off school to think about what his next course of action was. He looked down at his right wrist. The bracelet was see through, revealing his pale wrist to him for the first time in weeks. Sasuke stared, wide eyed, at the transparent trinket on his wrist. Was this Naruto's doing? He sat up immediately and rushed down the stairs, nearly falling and injuring himself. He ignored May's questions as he quickly slipped on his tennis shoes and took off running. He was going to see Naruto and find out what his plans were.

Kakashi looked down at the sheet of paper in his hands, unable to speak. "Are you being serious, Lord Minato?" He asked softly, his hand with the paper shaking like a leaf. He knew that Minato spoiled his only son, the Halfling beast called Naruto, but he never thought that his clever fox brain would lead him to this devious little thing. "You know this goes against all the rules that Lord Satan and his ancestors put in place, don't you? A war could be held over this." He tried to persuade.

Minato chuckled. He and Naruto looked identical, aside for the whiskers. Not only that but Minato had this certain air about him that made you want to befriend him and punch him in the face…All at once. "I am not kidding, Kakashi-San. I'm not out stepping any boundaries, besides. Little Sakura's engagement hasn't even announced to the public yet. It's not really all that legitimate." He stated with a nonchalant wave of his hand. Kakashi had to bite his tongue to keep from letting any curses slip from his mouth.

"You have got to be kidding me, Minato-San. I will not stand aside and watch you do this to me." Kakashi jolted up and glanced over at where the annoyed yet struggling voice came from. Sakura was walking over. Her injured wing dragged lifelessly on the ground, the soft black feathers tearing at the ends. She had a white wrap around her bosom and stomach. One leg was wrapped up to the knee and the other down from it. She wore a short blue skirt and nothing else. It was a good thing she had those wraps on.

Kakashi jumped over and rushed over, taking her into his arms. "Sakura-Sama, you're still too badly hurt to be moving around. Please, go rest and allow Kiba-Sama and I to handle this." He pleaded softly. Her eyes locked on Kiba, a scowl on her pretty face. He glanced up, eyes half opened.

"When we you planning to tell me this?! You dirty bastard! You've betrayed me before and now you'll do it again! You'll do it again and feel no remorse! I'll kill you if you do it! I swear I will!" She screamed, trying to rip herself free of Kakashi's arms. Kiba sighed, took the paper Kakashi had abandoned and looked it over. He then looked back up at Sakura.

"I'm sorry, Sakura, but it's for your own good." And with that, ignoring the screaming sobs of his younger sister, he signed the document.

Sasuke waited impatiently for own of the maids to answer the door. He tapped his foot. He glanced back down. The bracelet was still see through but also partially visible. Finally a young maid with brown hair that fell in curly waves over her shoulders answered. He made his demand to see Naruto. 'I'm sorry, but the Young Master has company right now." She stated as calmly as she could. Sasuke knew she was being unsettled by his intense gaze. Many girls had this reaction when he looked at them.

"I couldn't care less. You'll lead me to him and I'll talk to him or you'll regret it later." Sasuke normally didn't threaten girls but he needed to see Naruto now. If everything was ruined because of him he had the rights to pound him into the dust. She nodded frantically and let him in. He followed her to the Common's room, as Naruto called it. Basically it was the living room. She bowed and then ran off fearfully. Sasuke wondered if his threat had been that terrible or if she feared Naruto's wrath. Did she know what Naruto really was, too?

Sasuke slowly opened the door and looked in. It was very dark, one dim lamp on. Beside for the lack of light he could see some form of movement on the couch. He stepped foreword a little and felt his blood turn icy in his veins. Naruto had Hyuuga Hinata hoisted up in his lap and his long fangs were buried deep into her pale throat. Her eyes were wide, glazed with slight horror and pain. Her mouth hung open, soft and shaky gasps for air exiting her lips. Her hands clung to his shirt, the knuckles turning white with the force which she was applying. One of Naruto's hands was resting at the back of her head, keeping her head tilted so he could continue his savage biting. The other was holding on to her buttock, keeping the rest of her body in place. "What the Hell?" Sasuke whispered in horror, stepping back. Naruto's eyes snapped open, their crimson hue greeting Sasuke with a predatorily glint. He pulled away from Hinata and her body fell limp into him.

He rested her down, her eyes closing slowly, and kissed her nose sweetly. He then turned his flaming eyes on the Uchiha watching in shock. He began walking toward him and Sasuke made a mad dash for the door. It slammed shut, do to some invisible force. Sasuke turned just in time for Naruto to grab the crown of his head and forehead between his taloned fingers. He jerked Sasuke's head back and sunk his teeth into his flesh. Sasuke tried to shove him away or yell for help, but he found himself unable to move. It took another four minutes before he was released to fall to the wooden floor with a painful thump. Naruto wiped his lips on the back of his hands and knelt down, looking surprisingly sad. His eyes returned to blue. "I'm sorry about this, Teme, but this is how things work."

"What do you mean?" Sasuke asked weakly, his voice just barely a whisper. Naruto ran a hand through his golden bangs and looked at Hinata. A sorrowful smile came to his lips. He then looked back down at Sasuke.

"A demon must come tp this world and live here until they find their eternal mate. Then, they have to take their lover's life and give it to their best human friend. That was why Sakura was so desperate to keep you and I separated. Now, I've given you an extra five years. I've given you Hinata-Chan's five years." He stated calmly before standing. He closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them, swimming with tears. He threw the doors open and screamed for help. He claimed that Sasuke passed out and Hinata had stopped breathing. Sasuke began to fade in and out of the darkness. Only one thought rang through his head as he faded.

'Sakura.'
