Kidnapped

The next day at school hadn't been the best day. Everyone had found out about who I was, what I was and instantly they were either trying to get on my good side or trying to challenge me to a fight. Most of the guys eyed me, almost all high standing vampires wanted nothing but to be married into the Uchiha bloodline, to have a shot at ruling one of the top standing bloodlines; too bad for them Hei was as protective as he was and lucky for me. To hell if I was going to marry any of these snobs. After a couple of weeks everything fell into routine though. Konan and the others continued to guard me while mom and Otou-san continued to plan for their wedding. I had not heard anything from moms parents but a little voice in my head kept reminding me to stay alert, that I shouldn't take them so lightly. Finally it was the night before my exam, before I was to be tested and prove, or disproved, whether or not I was ready to earn the title as master a among the clan. Hei had been training so hard, we both were. While I trained with Otou-san or Sasuke-san he trained with Sakuno-san and Sai-san. My family may have been small, we kept to our selves but were happy and that was all that mattered.

"Again!" yelled Otou-san as I had, for the third time, broken out of his mangekyou and pined him down. Sadly though no matter how much power I put behind my bindings as soon as he saw I was ready, as alert as if her were still free, he'd effortlessly break through my binds and come at me again.

'Hei.' I called out and instantly he was by my side. Mom had been right about my thirst, my tolerance had increased and so I was now able to fight for an even longer period of time before needing blood, not to mention I was able to go for an even longer period without needing blood.

'Hai.' was all he said before appearing by my side and placing a barrier. Otou-san looked surprised at first, suspicious as to why all of a sudden I had requested a barrier. He was about to call out, to demand that I not run away when all of a sudden vines grew from the floor and tied up his legs. Mean while the wind around him began to gain speed, to grow angry and deadly. He looked all around me, at how his surroundings were reacting before looking back at me only to truly be stunned. I knew what he saw, I knew that like Sasuke-san had not believed it at first, he would not as well. In my hand I held my katana, the gift mother had given me and the sword I would forever cherish. It too was covered in vines at the hilt, wind wrapping tight around its blade while my eyes glowed a deep fire like orange. My power was expanding, adding to itself by taking from what was around it. Mom had always told me that our family was different, gifted, born to be hunters. That we had been blessed as the one hunter family who had been granted either enormous healing abilities or power over the elements to help in a fight. Ironically enough because of my vampiric blood both had awakened.

"When?" he asked, raising his hands and for the first time giving in. A wave of happiness so grand, so over whelming took me over then that I couldn't help but ignore his question. I had finally done it, I had finally caught my father, held him and forced him to cave. A taunting laughter suddenly appeared then and my happiness vanished.

"You celebrate too early young ones." she said while appearing before her master, the vines and the wind unable to touch her. "You may have caught my master but I will be the one to set him free." Sakuno was about to jump in the fight, to continue my training when I felt Otou-san's power disappear, catching Sakuno-san's attention.

"Master?" she called out and in a blink of an eye he was free and she by his side. I took in a deep breath then, I knew when we were done training and I knew better than to allow so much power to remain out in the open.

"I'm fine Sakuno, when Izakura?" Otou-san said, quickly going back to the topic at hand.

'My lady was it wise to show such power so soon?'

'I don't know Hei, I thought he'd be happy....' Hei and me started to discuss, still hidden behind a powerful barrier. Otou-san knew that whenever I held one out to him, to anyone who I kept close to me was for safety. Not for me but for them of course. He had come to understand and accept it just like mom had always done.

"When?" he called out again and again I didn't know what to say. He was about to move forward when suddenly Sasuke-san appeared.

"When she was training with me nii-san. It wasn't on purpose, it just sort of happened." he said while jumping down from the roof top with a grin. After the dinner that night he had grown a little softer towards me, he not only helped train me but talked to me and listened whenever I needed it. He was the best uncle a girl could ask for and Ino-san was the best aunt.

"Why didn't either of you tell me?" he demanded.

"Because, I wanted to surprise you and mom at my test." I quickly took charge. This was my problem, not uncles and of course I wasn't about to let someone else take the blame for something that was my fault, I was better than that.

"Hn." however was all he said before turning back to Sasuke-san. "What brings you around here Sasuke?" he asked, causing me to take a seat on the ground. That last technique had taken a lot out of my body, had used up a good amount of power and so it was for that very reason that I had promised Hei I would only use such attack when it was absolutely necessary.

'My lady, shall I carry you home?' Hei offered, causing a smile to spread across my face before shaking my head.

"I'm fine." I said before turning up to find that Otou-san and Sasuke were in a deep conversation. Sai and Sakuno-san were holding a silencing barrier and avoiding our eyes. "What's going on?" I thought out loud, causing Hei to instantly stand and take charge.

"My lady, we must leave." he said, voice serious and grave. Again I shook my head, I wasn't going anywhere until I saw for my self that Otou-san was fine, that when the barrier fell both stood whole, calm and not in a panic state of mind.

"No." I said, voice convicting.

"My lady, please." Hei pleaded but not matter how much he called out to me, how hard he tried, my attention was focused on them, on my family and their safety. They were deep into the conversation, both arguing about something. Then, right before I could break through the barrier it was let go and I stood face to face with my father and uncle.

"Go straight home Izakura." Otou-san said, his voice so serious, so unlike his usual self I couldn't help but nod before speaking.

"Is everything alright?"

"Hn." however was his only response before he and Sasuke-san took off at a run. I looked down at Hei then, worry in my eyes while his own held caution and worry.

"Let's go Hei, we need to get home."

"Hai my lady." and with that we began to walk off. Normally we would have ran home the instant Otou-san had told me to get home but again my power was little, limited and worst of all my body needed more blood. When we got home we found a note on the table stating that mom had been called in by the lady, she needed help with some emergency healing sessions and so would be getting home late. A sigh escaped my lips then and slowly I went for the fridge. The scent of blood was always sweet, welcoming but in time like these, when all I needed was power, energy it was the most intoxicating scent I had ever smelled. Hei all the while stayed close, he would not leave my side, he would stay beside, as close as a shadow, and almost as if he was attached to my skin.

"Calm down Hei, I'm sure everything will be fine." I said, going for the blood. Mom had kept the blood supply in bags but after moving in with Otou-san they were kept in cups, specially made cups so that every drink that you took was as if though it were fresh, it was as if though you were sinking your fangs into mortal flesh and draining them of what you body craved for. A shiver of pleasure ran up my spine then, the thought about sinking my fangs into something, feeling first hand what it felt like to feel the life of another not only being drained from their body but slipping into your own. There were times where I felt like a monster for thinking such things, for allowing my self to feel like a pureblooded immortal would and there were times where I was happy that I was what I was, that I was able to not only live like one, be one, but do drink blood as they did.

"My lady, are you well?" Hei called out to me once I was done with my first cup. Usually I needed to drink at least three so that I'd be at top shape but I was done training for today, and the rest of my strength would return to me after I took a small nap.

"Hai, lets go to the..." but before I could finish my body started to feel weird. My legs were slowly going numb, my arms were as well and worst of all my eye sight was getting blurry.

"My lady." Hei called out, instantly moving to my side and allowing me to use him for support. I shook my head over and over again but no matter how many times I did the feeling was all the same. My body was going to sleep.

"Hei....help..." I called out, my voice faint, worried and most of all scared. Instantly I felt his own power flare, reaching out to my own. As soon as he power touched mine Hei and I both collapsed to the floor.

'Hei!' my mind scram, trying to desperately move my body, will it to Hei's side and heal his own wounds before healing mine. Sadly it was no use, no matter how hard I fought it, how hard I tried to move my body simply would not move.

'My...pardons....' were the last words I heard from Hei before he was out cold. Tears fell from my eyes then, he was passed out, he had fallen unconscious and I couldn't move to heal him, I couldn't move to make sure he was alright. A scream build up in the back of my throat then, a scream so sad, so angry it hurt even more when I couldn't open my mouth to let it all out, when I suddenly found my self with no voice.

'Hei....I'm so sorry' I called out to him mentally while my body froze, stayed frozen and my tears began to fall. Whatever it was that had put my body to sleep had apparently put my senses to sleep as well because the last thing I was my vision go dark and a wave of darkness take me over.

The next time I opened my eyes I found that not only could I feel my body again but I felt so sore, so sick that I wasn't sure how long I was out. My sense's were back, I could faintly feel two people near by but again I couldn't react. My power was bound, being kept from my reach. With a sigh I started to look around, I noticed that I was in some sort of basement. It was damp, cold, creepy and most of all smelled some what familiar. My thirst was there, it wasn't as strong as it was when I was done training or when I had gone a week without it but it was there enough to let me take notice. Again I shivered but this time it wasn't from anger or pain it was the cold air that touched my skin.

'Hei!' I suddenly thought frantically. He had been with me before I was captured, kidnapped or whatever. He had tried to reach out to me using his own power, he had tried to heal me before I could heal him. Quickly I started to look around, I tried to move my body only to feel as restraints kept me in place. My legs were tied up to the legs of a steel chair while my hands had been handcuffed to the back.

'Hei, Hei oh god please say something!' I scram out to him. At first I hadn't heard anything, been send anything then all of a sudden I could hear a faint moan.

'Hei? Hei!?' I called out again, earning a response that time.

'Hei, oh thank god your alright! Where are you?' I called out, tears of relief falling freely from my face.

'I am not certain my lady,...' he answer calmly at first, I imagine he was taking in his surroundings. 'I can not see clearly, I think....my lady are you alright?!' Hei spoke, trying gather as much information as he could before suddenly realizing that I wasn't beside him.

'Hai Hei, I'm fine. Are you?'

'My lady I am so sorry, perhaps if I would have called in the akatsuki then maybe....'

'Enough Hei. What's done is done, what's important now is that we find a way out of this place.' I said while looking around the dark room my self. There was a small bathroom and a large tube fore bathing at the far left corner while to the right was a bed poor furnished.

'Hai, I will gather as much information as possible.'

'And I too, rest now Hei. We will need our strength.' were the last words I send out to him before sighing and reluctantly closing the link between he and I. To hell if i was going to stay here, if I was just going to sit around and wait for my captures to show up and kill me or do whatever it was they were going to do. I was going to get out, save Hei and run home. No wait, I'd run straight to Lady Tsunade's office. Hei would need healing, I would need healing and best of all mom would be there, working and ready to heal her only daughter. I was about to cut through the ropes, to use my nail to my advantage when I suddenly heard a door swing open and footsteps approach me. Instantly I went still, held in a deep breath and waiting for my capture to appear. God this bastard was lucky I was tied up, that he had resorted to using cheep tricks to knock my out because if hadn't then he would have been in the hospital fighting on hell of a coma. Soon laughter could be heard and when my capture appeared my jaw dropped.

"You.....you...." but I couldn't finish my statement. Was this really happening, could my capture truly have been....
