Shibo and Hebi were running through the halls of the prison.
"M-master, where are we going?"
"We have to get there before Kabuto can!"
"WHEREEEEEE?!"
Kabuto and Denma were standing in front of a near-empty cell. A boy with dirty white hair and pale-ish skin was chained up against the wall, passed out. Kabuto opened the door to the cell. Denma followed him, smiling in excitement. Then, he stopped.
"Kabuto-kun, there's someone here~" Kabuto ran out of the cell, and ran down the hall. Shibo punched Kabuto square in the face, while Hebi ran to the cell. Denma laughed,
"My, my, it's the little brat team!" Hebi hissed, and pumbled Denma. Shibo ran over, and forced Denma down on the ground.
"Hebi, free him!" Hebi nodded, and ran over to the boy, and broke the shackles and chains around him and his limbs.
"Wake up!" Hebi shook him, then picked him up. She dodged a scapel that flew at her face. Kabuto kicked Shibo off of Denma, and helped him up.
"Wow, that little girl's got a nice grip~" Denma wiped his mouth, and looked at Shibo. Shibo looked at Hebi,
"RUN, HEBI! GO GET FATHER-" Denma grabbed Shibo, covering her mouth.
"I wonder what would happen if we ran an experiment on you~?" Hebi gasped, and ran off, the boy on her back. Kabuto watched her as Denma started chaining Shibo up. She screamed loudly, but Denma was unaffected. He slapped her neck, making Shibo pass out. Kabuto was about to close the cell door, when he felt a snake slither up his leg. He turned, and Orochimaru was looking at Denma. Denma turned, and smiled at the old snake.
"My, my, the big snake's here~" Orochimaru glared poison at Denma, who seemed unaffected by the glare.
"Let go of my daughter. You dare to turn my best ninja against me, I'll kill you for sure this time." Denma laughed, and looked at Orochimaru.
"YOU think you can KILL ME?!" Shibo kicked Denma's leg, making the bone snap. Denma fell to the ground, and glared at Shibo,
"You think you can help your father, little girl?!" Orochimaru took the moment, taking out a kunai and throwing it at Denma's head. Denma caught it, and put it to Shibo's neck.
"Here, how bout this?!" He slit Shibo's neck, blood spattering on everything and everyone. Denma licked the blood off, and kissed Shibo's lips softly.
"May we meet again in hell, little girl~" And, in an instant, Denma vanished. Kabuto ran off as Hebi came back. She screamed, and ran over to Shibo.
"MASTER, MASTERRR! PLEASE, STAY ALIVE! YOU HAVE TO MASTER, YOU HAVE PEOPLE WHO LOVE YOUUU!" Shibo blinked, and looked up at Hebi. Orochimaru held Shibo's head in place as her neck slowly healed. Hebi teared up, and started assisting with the healing. Orochimaru vanished, leaving Shibo and Hebi by themselves.
Shibo woke up to Kimimaro, Hebi and an unknown face.
"Shibo-chan, do you feel better?" Kimimaro kissed Shibo's forehead,
"No, still a fever." Hebi gigged.
"What if it wasn't a fever, but she was embarrassed?" Shibo blushed more, and gently pushed Hebi. The boy kissed Shibo's forehead, too, making Shibo hiss. Hebi giggled, and Kimimaro chucked.
"Komacki-kun, I advise not to do so when she is like this. She knows how to get into every room in every hideout and at the mansion here."
"But, she was the only one I didn't kiss…" The boy looked just like Kimimaro, except he was younger. Shibo looked away, and Hebi stuck a thermometer below her tongue. Shibo tried to spit it out, but moving anything below her neck hurt to high hell. Hebi removed the thermometer a few minutes later, and shook her head,
"Kimimaro-sama, it is a fever still…"
"Told you so; I've been around Shibo-chan so often, I can tell when she's blushing or if she has a fever." Komacki chuckled, and Kimimaro looked at him.
"What? I'm being serious here. When we first met, she had a fever." Komacki went quiet, and looked down. Kimimaro smiled, and hugged his brother.
"Nee-san, you're so lucky…"
"Why do you say that, Komacki-kun?" Hebi looked at them.
"It's because you have people who care for you so much-"
"Hey, hey, heyyyyyyy~! Shibo-sama wanted to save you because she knew you were a nice person! We saved you from those two crazy guys, and, and, and-"
"Enough…Hebi-chan…" Shibo groaned. Hebi quieted down, and sighed.
"Shibo-chan, it's not advisable you talk in such the condition you're in…" Kimimaro petted Shibo's head. Shibo blushed, and tried to turn. She screamed, and Hebi looked up at the bags of blood and IV's,
"Master, let me add a new IV of morphine..." Hebi changed the small bag with the empty small bag, and in a few minutes, Shibo calmed down. Hebi smiled nervously as she saw Orochimaru walk in. He had an air around him that would scare even the fiercest of mongooses.
"So, how is she doing?"
"I just put her under more morphine, Orochimaru-sama. She is clearly awake, and is suffering from a fever." Kimimaro and Komacki walked out the room, but Orochimaru called them both back in.
"Nee-san, I'm scared…" Komacki whispered under his breath.
"Don't worry, he has a soft heart once you get past the toughness he puts up…" Kimimaro whispered back. Orochimaru smiled at the pair.
"Well now. I guess Shibo-chan uncovered something that Kabuto had been keeping under wraps, huh?"
"Yes, m'lord. I understand it is hard to believe that there was another of something that there was believed there was only one of."
"Ohhhhh, that's true…" Orochimaru mumbled. Hebi looked at him, and sighed.
"M'lord, not around your daughter…" Orochimaru gasped.
"Hebi-chan, how can I think of such a thing?!"
"M'lord, you're not any different than any other man, huh…" Hebi sighed, and left the room. Kimimaro and Komacki also left. Shibo was asleep, and Orochimaru left the room silently.
Kimimaro laid in his bed, asleep. Komacki laid in a futon on the ground, awake.
"Nee-san, why did she care?"
"Probably because she saw it made me worry, the fact I knew you were suffering." Komacki turned towards his brother.
"Then, why did she risk her life?"
"Because her powers allow her to." Komacki sat up.
"P-powers?"
"She's not a human. Even though she is allowed to linger in this world, she must give up the basics of being a human. While you were knocked out, her throat was crushed and sliced open. Now, once she gets better, she will need to drink blood. She can roam in the sunlight, swim in water, but she can't get baptized, or let someone baptize her." Komacki gasped.
"She's a vampire?! Th-then how can she…?!"
"She's a special case. And no, she hasn't drank a drop of my blood fresh." Komacki sighed.
"Well, they say love can be interspecies…"
