Kasek: This is just something I did because I was bored. I write a lot of things when I get like that. So, it's not much in the originality department, mostly borrows from the manga.
Additional note: This is old, before I got really more serious about my writing. I'm just posting it now because I just now have someplace to put it other than its own story slot.
Disclaimer: I own neither Naruto nor Rosario+Vampire
Naruto gulped as he waited at this.... "bus" stop on the side of the road, a tunnel nearby, with Gaara, both in school uniforms. "So, we're, like, infiltrating a school for monsters... how did I get roped into this? Heck, how did you get roped into this? You're the Kazekage!"
Gaara sighed. "Naruto, we are going to a world where monsters are the norm, and humans will be executed if found out. I'm a Jinchuuriki; I can transform into a human-sized Shukaku in order to fool them. If any other shinobi in our village were to try to transform to disguise themselves, it would be found out as an illusion. Luckily, I have Temari and Kankuro standing in as co-acting Kazekages."
Naruto sighed. "So I'm in this because of the stupid fox, huh? Geez, talk about typecasting..."
Soon, a great big box on wheels came out of the tunnel, two lights coming from it's front. As it came to a stop in front of them, Naruto was reminded of the train in the Land of Snow for some reason. The door on the side of the bus opened, and a man, smoking a cigar, and with what looked like two round glowing orbs for eyes, was sitting at the wheel. "Are you the students enrolling at Youkai Academy?"
Naruto gulped. You could just tell that this guy was a monster, even if he (mostly) looked human. "Y-yeah, that's us..."
As they got on the bus and found seats as far away from the driver as possible, the bus driver let some smoke out of his mouth. "I should warn you, Youkai Academy is a veeeery horrifying school."
Naruto grit his teeth. He would not let his fear of the supernatural get the better of him. He smiled as he looked back at the bus driver. "How bad can it be?"
As the bus turned around and went back into the tunnel, the bus driver spoke once again. "I have one last student to pick up before we go to Youkai Academy, I hope you don't mind."
They came out of the tunnel, and Naruto was surprised at where they were- high up a hill, overlooking a large city. "Gaara? I don't remember being this near a city, do you?"
Gaara shook his head. "This "bus" must have some sort of space-time jutsu affixed to it..."
As the door opened, a black-haired boy their age boarded the bus. He seemed relieved that there were other people on the bus, and he hurriedly sat in the back next to Naruto as the bus started moving againp. "He-hello. You're going to Youkai Academy too, huh?"
Naruto frowned- this kid didn't seem like a monster at all. In fact, he seemed scared of Naruto's frown. Naruto realized what he was doing, and smiled. "Sorry, sorry, I was thinking. Yeah, we're going there too." The boy looked at Gaara, who was sitting across the aisle. He lifted his hand and gave a small wave before looking back out the window. Naruto smirked as the boy was creeped out by Gaara's appearance. "My name's Uzumaki Naruto, and he's Gaara. What's your name?"
The boy smiled "A-Aono Tsukune. Why are you going? I failed my high school entrance exams, and this school was the only one that would take me."
Naruto frowned again. "They take anyone? I didn't know that... Geez, and Granny Tsunade made it out like she went to a lot of trouble to get me into this school."
Gaara looked away from his window. "She did. The average person can't find out about this school, and it's even harder to get in contact with them."
Tsukune raised an eyebrow. "There's, uh... there's a telephone number on the fliers they hand out."
Naruto's own eyebrow raised. "What's a.... telephone? Heck, I don't even know what this thing we're riding in is!"
Gaara sighed as Tsukune looked surprised. "You must be from really far out in the country, then."
Naruto nodded. "Yeah... the place I come from is kind of... isolated."
Tsukune nodded. "And what about Gaara?"
Gaara snorted. "I at least know what a bus and a telephone are."
Naruto chuckled lightly, while a vein pulsed in his forehead. Greeeat, Gaara's making me look like an idiot.
Naruto and Tsukune talked for a bit longer, and then the bus left the tunnel they were in. Naruto looked shocked at the new landscape they found themselves in- dry earth, dead trees, and graves everywhere, all near cliffs overlooking the ocean. Lightning struck through the air and silhouetted what looked to be a mansion on the end of the peninsula. The whole thing looked like something straight out of a horror film. As Naruto, Gaara, and Tsukune stepped off, the bus driver tipped his cap. "Be careful, now. After all, this is a veeeery horrifying school."
Tsukune and Naruto both got shivers up and down their spine. The door closed, and the bus turned around and went back through the tunnel, the bus driver's creepy laughter echoing through the air. Tsukune seemed ready to cry. "What were my parents thinking, enrolling me in a place called Youkai Academy? This place is like a completely different world...!"
Naruto nodded in agreement. "I hear you..."
"Kyaa! Oh no! Watch out, coming through!" The three of them turned around, and saw a girl with pinkish-purple hair riding a bicycle straight towards them. Naruto and Gaara safely jumped out of the way, but poor Tsukune got hit. The girl landed right next to him, and the bike flew through the air. As Tsukune and the girl started to regain their senses, the girl apologized. "I'm sorry, I got dizzy from my anemia..."
Tsukune's face turned bright red when he realized that this girl was the cutest girl he had ever met. He backed off little in shock, and then realized that his hand had been on her thigh, and a bit of blood spurted from his nose to reflect his perverted thoughts. The girl seemed horrified to see blood. "Oh no...!" She took out a handkerchief and leaned in to wipe it away, however, she moaned and leaned against his chest before she fully got there. "I'm sorry... I lose control when I smell that scent." She looked up into his face, and Tsukune could feel his face turn red. Naruto and Gaara were wondering what the heck was going on. "You see... it's because... I'm a vampire." She bit right into his neck, causing Naruto and Gaara to assume battle stances.
After a moment, she pulled back, and Tsukune panicked. "AHHHH! My blood's been sucked! Out of nowhere, my blood's been sucked!"
The girl looked sincerely sorry as she saw him run back and forth, blood on his neck. "I-I'm sorry! I'm Akashiya Moka... as you can see, I'm a vampire."
Naruto and Gaara got out of their battle stances- she seemed nice enough. Tsukune, still in panic mode, replied "Vampires?!? The bloodsucking monsters that hate garlic and crosses and stuff?!?"
She nodded, though Naruto noticed that she was, in fact, wearing a big cross right on her neck. "Yes. Thank you so much for the treat, your blood is soooo yummy. Incredible~"
As Moka walked with her bike at her side, Tsukune stayed next to her, with Naruto and Gaara staying behind them. "So, do you hate our kind? Vampires..."
Tsukune was obviously still panicking, though this time it wasn't over his blood being sucked. "I wouldn't say that... I mean, vampires are pretty unique!"
Moka smiled. "That's great! Then, if it's okay with me, please be my friend! I was feeling lonely because I didn't know anybody here!"
Tsukune blushed, and he could feel his heart beat in his chest. Definitely cute! He then realized that she didn't know his name. "Ah, I'm Aono Tsukune."
Moka's smile remained. "I'm very pleased to meet you." She turned back to Naruto and Gaara. "Are these two your friends, too?"
Naruto smiled. "I'm Uzumaki Naruto!"
Gaara nodded his head. "Gaara."
Naruto rubbed the back of his head. "We met Tsukune on the bus, but.... yeah, I guess we're his friends."
Moka giggled. "Well, I met Tsukune even sooner than that, so that's quite alright. Do you guys want to be my friends, too?"
Naruto grinned. "Friends with a vampire? Sounds like an interesting experience! Count me in!"
Gaara closed his eyes for a moment to think. "Something tells me that I'm going to regret this, but..." He opened them again. "Sometimes one has to do things one regrets. Sure, I'll be your friend."
Naruto frowned. "Hey, now, is that any way to talk about a girl like her?"
Gaara closed his eyes again. "Maybe, maybe not."
Moka giggled. "Well, let's all meet after the entrance ceremony, alright?"
Tsukune nodded, but in his mind, he was thinking- What's up with this whole vampire thing?
As for Gaara, he had another thought on his mind- That Tsukune... he seemed surprised that she could possibly be a vampire... well, I was surprised too, but.. he couldn't be human, could he?
--
As they all sat in class 1-3, a blond woman with brown hair at the tips of her hair, and wearing glasses in front of her seemingly closed eyes, was greeting them. "Hello, and welcome to Youkai Academy! I am your homeroom teacher, Nekonome Shizuka! I think you all already know this, but... this is a school built for the sake of monsters to attend!"
Gaara gauged Tsukune's reaction (he was sitting right to Tsukune's right)- he seemed absolutely horrified. Shizuka continued speaking. "Our current problem! The Earth has already come under the control of the humans! In order for us monsters to survive, we must coexist with the humans! At this Academy, you'll be learning how to do just that!"
Tsukune looked around the room in a panic, not noticing that Gaara was looking straight at him. Monsters?!? What is she saying?!? What is this teacher saying?!? Shizuka didn't seem to notice him. "For that reason, you will spend your time at this Academy.. in human form. Do you understand? It's a matter of being able to disguise yourself well as a human! That is the foundation of coexistence! You are not allowed to let anyone in this school know your true form, understand?"
A blond man one seat to the left and in front of Tsukune spoke up. "Hey teacher... Wouldn't it be better just to eat up those puny humans? And we can molest the beautiful girls, too." Gaara gauged Tsukune's reaction- again, shocked.
Shizuka looked as if she had just remembered something. "Oh! Incidentally, all of the staff and students are allll genuine monsters! No humans here! Since this Academy is within a sacred, secret world... to those humans who find out about us, we bring them death. Or something."
Tears came to Tsukune's eyes as he ruffled his hair. I'll be killed if my true form gets out?!? How did I end up enrolled in a school like this?!? It was a rhetorical question- he certainly knew how. His father had found a flier that a creepy priest had dropped. The school didn't require an entrance exam, so his parents thought it was a gift from God. Father, why did you send me to such a horrible school... I gotta hurry, if I don't escape from this school right away...
"'Scuse me! Sorry I'm late, I kinda got lost after the entrance ceremony..."
Shizuka smiled- it seemed like her smile never came off. "Well, that's alright. Go find a seat. Oh, what a cute one~"
Tsukune looked up, and saw that it was Moka. The guys began talking immediately. "Who is she? Such flowing hair! Such big eyes!" "Whoa, beautiful! It may just be her transformation, but I don't think there's anyone else who could transform into such a beauty..." "Hot! She's too hot! I'm so happy to be in the same class as this girl!"
Moka, oblivious to their affections (or perhaps just that used to them), walked down the aisle. Tsukune nervously called out to her as she passed him. "Mo... Moka..."
She seemed to snap out of a trance. "Huh? Tsukune? ....It's Tsukuneeeee!" She wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him tightly, to the envy of just about every guy in the class (minus Naruto and Gaara- Naruto thought Sakura was cuter, and Gaara was still oblivious to girls).
"Hey! Who is that guy? What relation does he have with that girl?" "Our beautiful girl, our beautiful girl!"
Moka backed down from her hug. "Hey, are Gaara and Naruto here, too?" Tsukune pointed both behind him, and to the far back left corner of the room, where Naruto was sitting. Gaara and Naruto waved, and she waved back. "I look forward to having class with you guys this year!"
Gaara narrowed his eyes as he saw that the same guy who had suggested to molest all the beautiful girls lick his lips. He's up to something, I can feel it...
--
As Tsukune walked down the hall, Moka clinging to his arm and pulling him along, he reflected on his day. What is this? Is this a dream?It has to be... there's no way something that could make me this happy could be really happening to me! But if it is real, I guess monsters are no big deal so I can have this happiness!
Naruto and Gaara were right behind them. Naruto chuckled. "He fell in rather hard, didn't he?"
Gaara nodded. "If you mean in love, I can't say I know how to spot it, but... it certainly looks so."
Moka was smiling the whole time. "Isn't this such a cool hallway?"
Tsukune was too happy to answer straight. "Uh, yeah, I guess so..."
"Let's go see what's over there..."
In the mean time, the boys in the hallway were beginning to notice Moka. "Hey, did you see that girl?" "Whoa! Beautiful! I've never seen such a hottie!" "I.. I want to date her!" Then, they noticed Tsukune. "Hey, who's that guy next to her?" "Maybe he'll leave on his own..." "If not, he's as good as dead." "Let's just kill him now!"
The killing intent was so thick that even Tsukune could feel it, and it put Naruto and Gaara on their guards. They could tell it was being directed at Tsukune, and Naruto smirked. "Looks like everybody else is getting jealous..."
Gaara frowned. "Is she really that cute...?"
Naruto frowned himself in response. "Well, she may not be as cute as Sakura, but yeah. You really should start exploring that side of yourself, you know."
"Hn..."
The same blond guy from earlier stepped into their path. "You are Akashiya Moka, are you not? I am Komiya Saizou! Salutations! By the way..." He grabbed Tsukune by the front of his shirt and lifted him into the air. "Why is a beautiful lady like yourself associating with a guy like this?"
Tsukune realized who they were talking to. This guy..! "Wouldn't it be better just to eat up those puny humans?"
As Saizou dropped Tsukune on the ground, the guys around them began talking. "Hey, that's Komiya Saizou! It seems like he's one of those outcast monsters!" "He sounds like quite a ladies' man, from all the human women he's molested." "They say he was forced to come here after causing too many problems in human society..."
Saizou licked his lips. "Well? Wouldn't someone like me be far superior to scum like him? Why don't we go off somewhere, just the two of us, and have fun?"
Moka looked like she was about cry. She grabbed Tsukune by the arm as he got up and ran with him "S-sorry! I'm having fun with Tsukune right now!" Tsukune blushed at hearing that.
As they turned a corner, Saizou snorted. "Just watch me... I never let a woman like you get away."
Naruto growled. "Just what do you think you were doing with our friends, huh?"
Saizou looked at him. "Oh? They're your friends, are they? And what are you gonna do about it?"
Naruto smirked. "I dunno. There are so many ways to kill you, but I haven't picked one yet."
Gaara eyed his companion. "Naruto, calm down. He's not worth it."
Naruto clicked his tongue, and walked past Saizou. "If anything happens to either of them, I know who to go after first..."
As Naruto walked away, Gaara spoke up to Saizou. "I'd watch out, if I were you... he is certainly not one to mess with. In fact, neither am I, but I'm a bit harder to get on the bad side of..."
Saizou grunted as they walked away. "'I know who to go after first'... who does he think he is, anyways?"
--
In the meantime, Moka and Tsukune were catching their breath by the stairs. Moka smiled as she looked at Tsukune. "That was surprising, I got a little scared... are you alright, Tsukune?"
Tsukune blushed. "Uh, yeah, I'm fine... listen, Moka? Why are you so friendly to someone like me? Even though I'm just a worthless, mediocre guy..."
Moka looked like she was about to cry yet again. "Don't say that! To me, you're not mediocre, or worthless, or anything like that, Tsukune!" Tsukune's blush deepened. "Besides... we're on bloodsucking terms!" Tsukune almost tripped after hearing that. "Be proud of yourself! You have grade A blood! It's way better than the blood I drank from the blood transfusion packs! It's full-bodied, and the sweetness and mineral balance are all perfect!"
Tsukune couldn't take it any more. "What am I, food?!?"
Moka smiled and blushed. "Well, actually, you know, Tsukune... that was my first time."
Tsukune could almost feel the question mark over his head. "Huh?"
"You're the first person I've fed from, Tsukune... my first time, that feeling.... I'll never forget it."
Tsukune looked down at her thoughtfully. "Mo... Moka..."
Moka pushed him away shyly. "Oh, I'm so embarrassed..." She began walking towards the door. "Let's go, Tsukune! I want to have fun and explore some more!"
Tsukune, who was partially embedded in the wall, nodded a little. "Y-yeah...."
Naruto and Gaara came around the corner, and were very confused- Moka was smiling while Tsukune was embedded in the wall. Naruto peeled him off. "Hey, what happened?"
Tsukune shook his head. "Moka's monstrous strength happened, is all..."
--
Their day was spent seeing the sights, and drinking juice from monstrous juice machines, and such, Naruto and Gaara enjoying watching Tsukune and Moka being happy together. Tsukune sighed contently. This is heaven... even with Naruto and Gaara with us, it feels like a date with Moka... I feel so giddy right now...
Moka snapped him out of it. "Hey, guys! These are the dorms that we're going to be living in!"
Naruto and Gaara took them in casually, but Tsukune was seriously creeped out. They were like large apartment buildings, but since they were so far away from other buildings, it seemed weird. Creepy! How did I get to such a creepy place without realizing it! "I wonder if I can live in a place like this for three years... Moka..."
Moka stared at the building with admiration. "So cool~ Such a building, full of dignity and character..."
Tsukune was shocked. "Are we looking at the same thing?!?"
Naruto chuckled. "So, every student gets their own room, huh? It'll be just like living at my old apartment, then!"
Moka turned to Tsukune. "You don't like it, Tsukune? Even though you're a monster... speaking of which, what kinds of monsters are you guys?"
Before Tsukune could respond (he was too busy dreading the event of her finding out he was human), she took back the question. "Oh, sorry, I shouldn't have asked that. We're not supposed to let our true form come out at school."
Both Tsukune and Naruto sighed in relief at the thought of not having to reveal their true forms yet (Naruto still didn't know what kind of monster he should be, though it was down to either a kitsune or a toad monster), while Gaara frowned. Tsukune got nervous again... he must be human, I'm sure of it.
Naruto decided to turn the question against her. "What about you? You're really a vampire, huh?"
Moka nodded. "Yep! I may look like just a pretty human now, but... take this rosary off my chest, and I become the read deal. A truly scaaaaary vampire!"
Tsukune gulped. "The rosary?"
Moka nodded "Yep. Rosaries can seal a vampire's powers. My original form was hated and caused conflict, so I sealed my powers myself."
Tsukune frowned to himself. So... Moka's really different from me after all.. even though she is so cute and gentle, she's really not a human...
Moka leaned in close to Tsukune. "But... even if my powers are sealed... I still crave blood. It's my weakness~" She closed the gap, and bit his neck, sucking his blood, causing him to yell in pain.
Naruto chuckled. "Geez... he's already had his blood sucked today, leave him some for himself."
--
The following morning, Tsukune was walking down the path to the school, an envelope in his hands. It's already morning... I ended up writing my withdrawal notice just in case, but... Should I really give up, or should I stay? I don't want to be separated from Moka... and Naruto and Gaara, too... they're all my friends... but...
"Hey... wait up, Loverboy."
Tsukune was brought out of his thoughts by Saizou, who was leaning on a tree. He took a few steps forward, and grabbed Tsukune by his necktie, and then proceeded to ram him against the wall that ran along the path to the school. "It looks like you had a lot of fun with Akashiya Moka yesterday! And you'e gonna pay for it today! Your true form, what is your true form?!"
Tsukune gulped. This is bad, if it gets out that I'm a human, I'll be killed! "I'm... I'm a..."
He didn't get to finish his sentence, as Naruto decided to interrupt, Gaara behind him. "Hey! Put him down!"
Saizou snorted as he looked at Naruto. "Or what? You actually think you can take me on, runt?"
Naruto gave his own snort. "I don't think, I know. Put. Him. Down."
Saizou did as told, and then promptly punched at Tsukune's head. Tsukune ducked, and the result was that the wall behind him shattered into pieces, impressing the crowd that had gathered. Saizou grunted in disgust as he began waking away. "Anyway, don't go near Moka again! If you even talk to her again, you're dead, boy!"
As the crowd that had dispersed, Tsukune collapsed to the ground. Naruto walked over to him. "Hey, are you alright?" Tsukune's eyes widened, and he got up and dashed back towards the apartments. Naruto stretched out his hand towards him. "Tsukune, wait!"
Gaara put his hand on Naruto's shoulder. "I think it best... we leave him alone. Especially if my suspicions about him are correct."
Naruto had enough sense to start whispering so that others wouldn't hear. "What suspicions?"
--
Tsukune was running around in a panic with all of his stuff back in its carrying cases. This isn't a joke! Horrible, too horrible for words... he smashed concrete to pieces with his bare hands! I'm too scared of these monsters, I'm going to be killed!
"Oh? Tsukune...?" Tsukune was surprised when Moka glomped him. "Morning! If we don't hurry, we're gonna be tardy~" Tsukune looked at her with tears in his eyes as Moka released him. "Tsukune? What's wrong? All that luggage..."
Tsukune looked down at the ground. "I can't help it, Moka! This school is just too scary! I want to go to a human school!"
Those words seemed to strike something within Moka. "A human one...? No way! You can't go off to some human school! I hate those humans!"
Tsukune's eyes widened. "Huh...?"
Moka looked to the side. "You know, I... I actually went to a human school up through middle school. I was isolated... none of those humans believed in monsters, so I started thinking I was weird... that I was different from everyone, that it'd be better if I wasn't there. That it'd be better if I disappeared... But..." She turned back to Tsukune, and smiled. "You said I was all right, even though you found out that I'm a vampire, and so... this has been the first time in my life that I haven't felt alone!"
Tsukune was too shocked for words- for the moment. Moka continued smiling. "You can't go, Tsukune... Let's study hard at this academy together..."
"If... If I said I was one of the humans that you hate... would you still stop me?"
Moka's breath hitched. "...huh...?"
"I'm... human. I am a human! Through some kind of mistake I ended up being let into this school, but I'm different than you!"
Moka took a step back from Tsukune. ".....! No...! There's no way a human could be here!"
Tsukune turned around. "Moka... that look on your face when you realized I'm human... that's right, I shouldn't even be here after all anyway..."
Moka grabbed his shoulder. "Wait! Really, Tsukune, I...!"
"Let go! You hate humans, right! Oh, and excuse me from being a friend to a monster!" With that, Tsukune dashed off.
--
Tsukune stood by the scarecrow that had the sign for the academy on its front, his letter in hand. He remembered Moka's words. "It's the first time in my life that I haven't felt alone..." If I go back home once again, I can get back to being normal... But, is this right, like this, for me...!
The bus pulled up, and the door opened. The bus driver glanced at him, his cigar in his mouth. "Hehe, so you're running away after all... somehow I had the feeling you would... that is fine, sonny boy. If you have no regrets, come aboard."
--
"No way... no..." Moka was kicking a rock as she slowly walked along, tears streaming down her face. "Even though I finally made a friend... Even though it was the first time in my life I thought I had a friend... I still have Naruto and Gaara, but... why does it hurt so much...?"
"Hey. Why is it that you are here alone...?"
Moka gasped as someone grabbed her wrist and ut a hand on her side. "S-Saizou!"
Saizou licked his lips. "You shouldn't be lonely, Akashiya Moka, when you can be with a man like me.
He threw her down to the ground, and began taking off his jacket. "I am serious... your beauty is incomparable to any one of those puny humans I have molested! I want you in all seriousness, Akashiya Moka!"
Moka looked at Saizou's hand, where the veins had begun to bulge. "Sai-Saizou...?"
Saizou's body pulsed. "Oh... I can't stop myself... when I feel like this, my body begins to ache... when I come to this point, there is no stopping me, I just can't stay in human form anymore..." His muscles bulged, ripping his shirt to shreds as his body became larger and larger, and his tongue nearly reached down to his waist.
Tears again formed in Moka's eyes. "N-no... someone... help..."
Saizou laughed as his transformation was complete. "I'm going to enjoy this little violation of the school rules..."
Moka screamed. "Tsukuneeeee!"
"Moookaaaa!"
Moka turned to the source- it was Tsukune, luggage and all. "Tsukuneee! Why?! Why did you come back?!"
Tsukune took a deep breath to calm himself. "Moka... There's something I want to say..." Tsukune did a doubletake at Saizou, noticing him for the first time.
Saizou snorted as he looked at Tsukune. "The scum says.. it wants to say something. I believe I warned you not to come near Moka again..."
Tsukune nearly jumped out of his skin. "What is this thing? It's a mon... mon... monster!"
Moka's worry for Tsukune showed on her face. "Run, Tsukune! It's Saizou's true form!"
Tsukune gulped as he looked at the twice-his-height monstrosity before him. "Saizou?! Is this thing?! No way! Are all monsters like this?!" So, if Moka takes off that rosary, then she, too...!
Saizou swatted at him like he would a fly, and sent him flying a good distance, and he crashed into a tombstone. Moka dashed after him. "Tsukuneee!"
Saizou laughed and did a little dance. "What's wrong, weakling? You're too weak, that's what's wrong!"
Moka knelt next to Tsukune, whose eyes were blank as blood fell from his mouth. "H...How horrible... Even though you came all the way back for me, this happened..." Her tears landed on Tsukune's face. "I'm sorry... after all, humans and monsters are very different, aren't they...? Because I'm a vampire, I suck the blood of humans and just end up hurting humans... The truth is... The truth is, the whole time... I just felt like I wanted to make a friend... even if it was just at a human school. But I guess it's impossible... since I'd surely be able to do nothing but hurt Tsukune as well."
Tsukune's arm shifted, and his hand went to Moka's shoulder- he was conscious again, if barely. "Surely... I'm a weak, worthless guy, Moka... But, I realized... It wasn't right running back home and parting with you like that... because, I want to be your friend, Moka." Tsukune smiled. "Even if you are a vampire.. I like you, Moka."
Saizou was ticked by this point. "What are you babbling about?!" He brought his leg back, intent on kicking Tsukune. "Die, scum!" However, his leg did not connect with Tsukune's head- rather, someone else's leg connected with Saizou's.
"Don't touch them!"
Moka and Tsukune were surprised by the appearance of Naruto, who landed in front of them. "I thought I told you to stay away from them..."
Saizou got back off of the ground. "Who says I have to listen to you, weakling? I bet you're some kind of weakling monster with nothing special about them! I'll pound you into the ground!"
Naruto frowned as Gaara walked by him to Tsukune and Moka. "I'm not weak... if you want to see exactly what kind of monster I am..." His nails grew into claws, his teeth turned into fangs, and his eyes became red with slits. Everyone present shuddered at the intense presence he gave off. Naruto glared at Saizou. "...then I'll just have to show you, won't I?"
Saizou took a step back. "This overpowering sensation...! Just like the legends, red eyes, fangs, and intense supernatural energy...! This is... a vampire!"
Naruto smirked as he took a step forward. A vampire, huh? Yeah, that works... "What's wrong? Weren't you going to pound me into the ground?"
Saizou grit his teeth. He gave out a battle cry, and charged Naruto, intent on slamming his fist on top of Naruto's head. However, Naruto stopped it with his bare hands. "Is that all you've got?" Naruto tossed Saizou's arm aside, and jumped towards his head. He concentrated as much of the Kyuubi's chakra as he could into his foot, and kicked Saizou in the face, sending him flying through a couple of trees before he crashed into a tombstone, an indent of Naruto's shoe on his face.
Naruto turned around, and he let the red chakra ebb out of his body. Tsukune gulped. So, Moka's transformation would be more like Naruto's... it's still scary, though...
Moka was stunned. "Naruto... you didn't tell me you were vampire..."
Naruto scratched the back of his head. "Hehe... umm... sorry? I was trying to keep it a secret?"
Moka nodded in comprehension. "I know how that feels... but how do you transform at will like that?"
Naruto gulped. "Umm... practice. Lots of it."
Moka tilted her head. "Well, if you say so..."
Gaara looked towards the school looming in the distance. "...we really should get to class. I think we've already missed first period..."
Naruto's face deadpanned. "Well, crap."
--
The bus driver stood at the edge of the cliff, looking towards the school. "What a young boy, to be facing such danger... after all, this place is awwwfully full of perils. And those other two boys... I wonder how they'll hold out. The red-head looks like he can handle it, but the blond... well, this looks to be an interesting year, at the least."

Tsukune grumbled as he held the withdrawal notice in his hands. Moka glomped him from behind, catching him by surprise and causing him to tear the notice in half. "Mornin, Tsukune! Whatcha doing?"
Tsukune was shocked for a moment, but grinned as he watched the pieces of the paper fly away on the wind. I have a lot of anxiety about this, but... Moka blushed a little as she looked at Tsukune. "Thanks for yesterday... Oh my! When I'm near you, my heart beats so hard... I want to suck your blood~"

Tsukune grinned as he ran. ...I found something at this Academy that's impossible to get anywhere else!

Gaara couldn't help but agree.
