Midnight Moon
Sasuke lay there, lost in his own foggy unconsciousness. The moon now covered by clouds which rained down on the motionless boy. It wasn't long before Sakura and Naruto
found him. Sasuke's gaping wound had already begun to close, one of the advantage to being a vampire, but he was still in critical condition.
"Sakura!" Naruto called with his mind in wolf form. The girl was still baffled of how how the wolf spoke like that. "Help Sasuke onto my back." He ordered.
"We need to get him back home as quikly as possible." A fearful look crossed the wolf's eyes. Sakura nodded and went to pick up Sasuke.
She lifted his cold inanimate body onto the warm wolf's fur, carfeul not to worsen his condition. Making sure that Sasuke wouldn't fall off,
Sakura climbed climbed onto the beast as well. She held him tight in her arms so that he couldn't slip. Then Naruto leaped from roof to roof and into the forest where the Uchiha
mansion stood. Luckily the floods hadn't reached it, since the estate was perched on a hill.
The great white wolf jumped out of tree and padded up to the door, letting Sakura and Sasuke off before changing back to his human form.
"Will he be okay?" Asked Sakura, her sad eyes looking down at Sasuke. Naruto looked at her and shook his head "I don't know Sakura, we can only hope so."
Sasuke's cold body was covered with the blue liquid vampires had instead of blood. If a vampire lost enough of it, they would lose immortality and immediatly die.
Which Sasuke was on the virge of doing.
Naruto carried him inside and set him down carefully on the living room couch. After doing so, Naruto ran to the basement stumbling on the way.
Sakura waited anxiously beside Sasuke for his return. He came back shortly with a strange syringe filled with red liquid. It was human blood.
Naruto quickly shoved the syringe into Sasuke's arm and injected its contents. Sasuke jerked into awareness of both the sudden pain and relief of the blood.
The blood had nurished Sasuke's heath only slightly though, for he had lost too much in the battle with Itachi and would need more human blood to survive.
Sasuke's red eyes began to glaze over as the color began to fade from them.
The haze of Sasuke's mind was winning in taking him into the gentle grasp of an eternal sleep. Death.
"Damn!" Came Narutos voice as he fumbled around the room. "That was the last emergency syringe!" The blonde panicked, looking franticaly around the room.
Then he stopped and walked over by Sasuke. Sakura watched him, watched her friend dying before her. She said nothing.
"Sasuke..." Naruto tried to say it as camly as possible as he sat in front of his friend. "Sasuke, pull yourself together. You can't leave us!!!" He held back a cry, but the tears came anyway.
Sasuke watched his friend fall into tears in front of him. He tried to move but found it imposible. He choked up more of the blue blood and knew his time had come.
His eyes wanderd hopelessly around the room. Naruto covered his face with his hands and sobbed. Then Sasuke's eyes found Sakura's. She hadn't said anything this whole time.
Sasuke looked into her eyes and saw the tears rolling down her face. Sakura snifled, there was nothing she or Naruto could do. It made her feel more useless then ever before.
She looked up and noticed Sasuke staring at her. There eyes met both filled with the sadness that was held in the very air of the room. The weather outside also emmitting the emotion.
The rain fell down on the roof like the tears that were cried. "S-Sakura..." He barely choked out as blue blood trickled down his lip.
Sakura knelt close to him and tried to hear his strangled words. "G-good bye... Sakura.... I love you..." His eyes were a smoky color as he closed them for the last time.
"NO!!!" Sakura half-screamed half-cried as she practically jumped on the boy. "You can't die!" She sobbed holding him. "SASUKE!!!" The tears streamed down her face like the
rain outside. Naruto slammed his fists on the table and screamed. "Damnitt!!!" He wiped the tears away with his arm and now his voice only came but a whisper. "Why Sasuke?"
The tears he wiped away already begun to replace themselves. "Why...?"
Sakura looked down at the boy in her arms, when suddenly an idea struck her. A crazy idea but she would take the risk.
She took Sasuke's face gently in her hands and did the unthinkable. Naruto's eyes opened wide as he saw her force Sasuke's fangs into her neck.
He watched astonished as Sakura's blood dripped into Sasuke's mouth. "Let this work..." She whispered. "Please... Just let this work..." The boy twitched in her arms.
Sasuke's eyes half opened revealing their red color as life flooded backin to him. Sakura cringed at the pain as his fangs sunk into her skin, but she knew he was worth every last drop of
blood in her body. He was more important to her than anyone.
Sasuke soon released his fangs and jumped back as he came into realization of what he was doing. "SAKURA!?!" He almost yelled, his eyes full of questions.
"Sasuke!" She replied in joy jumping onto the confused boy and hugging him. "I thought you were gone forever..." She mumbled into his shoulder still crying.
"S-Sakura..." He whispered and hugged the girl back. Sakura then leaned in closer looking him in the eyes before kissing him.
Naruto wiped the tears from his eyes yet again and took out his camera. "Click!" Both Sasuke and Sakura looked up then and broke their kiss.
"Naruto..." Sasuke growled and death glared his friend as the flash went off. "hehehe..." Naruto laughed. "This ones a keeper!" He said holding up the photo of Sasuke and Sakura
kissing. "Naruto your the only guy I know who could ruin a moment like this." Sasuke sighed. Sakura sweatdropped at the wolf boys idiocy.
"Only you would Naruto." She laughed. "Group hug!!!!" He sudenly outburst and jumped on the both of them. "Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!" They screamed.
"Naruto... your crushing us..." Sakura said being squished. "Sorry... Wolf strength..." He remebered letting go of them.
"Naruto I already almost died once today and once is enough, so get off!" Sasuke said pushing Naruto away. Naruto whimpered and fell onto the floor and started laughing.
"What a crazy day off of school this was!" He gigggled. "Too bad we'll have to go back tomorrow."
Sasuke groaned. "Nope, I don't no about you but I won't be leaving this couch for a while." Sasuke breathed. "but I need a shower.. " He said looking down at his blood covered clothes.
"Me too." Sakura replied seeing as since she hugged Sasuke her clothes were also covered in the strange blue blood.
Naruto snickerd. "You two gonna shower together?" He asked slyly with that famous foxlike grin of his. Which earned him a punch from Sasuke into the adjacent wall.
"Ow..." Naruto mumbled now with a black eye. "I was just kidding..." He said rubbing his eye. "tch... dobe." Sasuke muttered
"C'mon Sakura. I have some clothes you can change into upstairs." Sasuke said taking her by the hand.
"I knew it!!!" Naruto yelled from the floor. Then Sasuke threw his shoe at him. "OWW!!!!" Naruto screamed.
"So much for helping save your life!!!!" Naruto yelled after his 'friend' before plopping on the floor. "I'm too tired to kick your ass.." He yawned, closing his eyes for well needed rest.
