Chapter two: You're not alone

She stared into his crimson eyes, hoping and pleading for a tint of mercy. He stared back at her and took a deep breath.

"Hiding now are we? You do realize I can smell you miles away, your scent is-" He was cut off as soon as he thought of her scent.

'My scent is…?'

'Mesmerizing.' His inner self filled in. He scowled and growled below his breath. He didn't want to admit it but she smelled absolutely wonderful. Almost like a drug, he wanted more of it. Without thinking, he grabbed her by the collar and pulled her closer. He breathed in loudly through his nose and closed his eyes. The girl was way too terrified to do anything except watch as the demon did as it pleased. He leaned his head back, trying to clear of the wonderful scent from the innocent girl in his grasp. He laughed a bit when realizing how scared the little girl was. She should be crying of happiness that he didn't throw his sword into her face as soon as he took notice of her presence.

"We made it out." Ino said with a sigh of relief.

"I did, rather." She corrected when noticing that she was the only one there. Strange, she could've sworn that they were right behind her not too long ago. I mean they made it out – didn't they? She tilted her head up to the sky and frowned.

"I wonder if gramps made it..." She asked to herself. As if god sent someone to answer her, a voice replied.

"With his head on the floor, and his body in his throne – I highly doubt it." She turned vastly only to see a pale- faced man with a scroll in his arm smiling before her. She sweat dropped while wondering when he got there. Wait- maybe he was that demon that everyone was freaking out about.

"A-are you that…that demon..?" She asked unsurely, stiffening.
"What? I thought I made it in here without anyone noticing me. Well now that does make things a lot harder for me. Thank you for telling me, weirdo." Ino's mouth twitched at his nickname. Weirdo? They had just met, and he already thinks she's a weirdo? What had she ever done to deserve that?

"You're welcome, jerk."

"…"

"….."

"Excuse me?"

The girl with short, blond hair named Temari ran for her dear life in hopes of finding the door out. She had been running for ages, and she still couldn't find the stupid door!

"Okay girls, I say we jump out a window, cuz I'm getting really annoyed!" She yelled out. When she got no response, she stopped running, turned around, and took a deep breath, preparing to shout her ass off. No one there.

"Girls..?" She gasped when thinking over why she didn't realize earlier.

'I've been running through hallways where the eco doesn't fade out, but almost sound exactly like the real noise causing it. I never even knew such hallways existed, unless...'

"Show yourself!" She spoke out into the long hallway. The voice echoed further and further down, until it died out. She sighed and looked down. Tears filled her eyes when the agony of being lost overcame her.

'It's okay to cry, I'm alone…'

"Why can't I get out of here? This hallway seems endless!" She fell to her knees and placed her palms on the floor for support. Tears fell to the stone floor endlessly until someone caught one with their fingers. Her eyes widened and she looked up to see who it was which did it. Her eyes widened more when she saw the figure of a very muscular man holding two dark daggers. The daggers were pitch black but glowed slightly on the handles. The shape was rather peculiar, to be picky.

"Who are you?" She asked, regaining her strength and confidence.

"Look woman, I'm the one asking questions here. Where is the king." He asked with slight disgust in his voice. When she didn't reply at the speed he wanted her to, he raised one of his daggers and cut her right cheek with it, to speed up her thinking process.

"Answer me." He commanded. "Or I'll cut that pretty face of your into origami." She glared at him as if to say "Don't you even dare to." He looked her in disbelief. Had she no idea of who he was?

"Alright woman, you're wasting my time. I'll just kill you and ask someone else who has a brain." He spun his dagger in the air before catching it and aiming it between her eyes.

"I-in his throne room..." As soon as she answered, he stopped his hand only a mere centimeter away from her face. Her look was sad and tragic, as if she had done something she would regret. He pulled his dagger back and smirked.

'You'll get over it.' He thought to himself.

"And where is that?"

"…..Down the hallway and…." As she continued to explain, his smirk widened to an evil, smug grin.

'I think I'll use her for a while longer, she seems to know her way around.' He thought to himself.

Slow footsteps were heard from a female out in the village. The whole kingdom was on fire; even people were running around blindly, screaming for someone to set the fire on them out. She silently begged for it all to stop. The sight of small children burning in pain was enough to make anyone cry. Her eyes filled with tears, but she didn't bother to wipe them away.

"Foolish humans." A dark voice spoke with clear disgust in his statement. She turned to the person speaking and narrowed her eyes. What the….fuck?

She felt her body beginning to tremble in fear at the creature next to her. She began to sweat and look worriedly around. Everything began to twist and the crying from villagers started to sound like laughing demons. Suddenly the man next to her smirked.

"Isn't that right?" He asked.

Her eyes widened and she snapped back to reality. Her throat filled with weird liquids and she began to feel sick. She quickly collapsed onto her knees and regurgitated on the ground. Her eyes were wide open and her body was shaking like a leaf. The man chuckled, catching her attention. She slowly turned her head and looked at the thing she thought was at least human.

"W-what are you….?" She asked weakly, expecting a reasonable response, but instead received the exact opposite.

"Some call me a monster, some a beast, some even an evil human." He growled at his last words. "But I'm a demon." She frowned at his answer. A demon…Her body was too weak for her to do anything but sit and stare at her own vomit. Just then he pulled out an enormous sword and directed it at her.

"What do you prefer? We'll know after I've cut your stomach open and your guts are lying all over the ground." Her mouth started to tremble as well as her feet. Never had she ever been this scared. This man, no, this demon really changed her life, which was about to end.

'Her whole body is shaking in fear. It amuses me.'

"Say girl, what's your name?"

"…"

"I asked you a question, now answer it." He grew impatient.

"…. ….S…..S…..Sa…." That's it. He had had enough of this. He grabbed hold of her wrist and pulled her up. .Her legs were barely holding her up, a gust of wind could knock her absolutely unconscious. He brought one of his strong arms around her waist and pulled her closer so he could support her weight. With the other hand he held her chin and tilted her head to the side a bit. She wanted him to let go, she wanted to run away, run away from everything. Though the only thing she could do was close her eyes and imagine it happening. He leaned closer to her ear and whispered softly:

"What…Is…Your…Name?"

"Haruno… Sakura…"
