We do not own Naruto.
The stars were out and shining, the trees were full of summer life, and the wind was calm. The fire that they had created had gone out. There laid five beautiful women who had just been attacked by creatures not thought about every day. Five vampires have attacked them from the forest surrounding them. You see them in your nightmares; maybe even in a storybook, but what would you do if you physically encountered them?
Temari was the first to awaken, and she observed her surroundings. She saw her four friends lying on the ground. Yes, they were attacked, but their faces seemed...peaceful, like they were okay. She checked everyone's pulses, and everyone seemed fine, except for Sakura. Her pulse was slightly irregular, and Temari became nervous. She began to shake Sakura, but she didn't wake up.
"Damn it Sakura, please wake up!" shouted Temari. She kept shaking and shaking her, but no luck.
Ino woke up next. She rubbed her head, and felt quite groggy and her stomach was sore. She lifted up her shirt partially, and saw several cuts and a decently sized bruise on her stomach. She screamed at the sight of it. Temari turned around and smirked.
"You know how we were discussing who couldn't survive in the wild?" Temari joked as she received a glare from Ino, and she went back to focusing on Sakura.
"It's not funny Temari, this looks really bad! Do you have a first aid kit?"
Temari looked back over and said, "I think Sakura might have one, check her bag."
Ino went over to Sakura's bag, and opened it. "I kind of feel guilty for searching through it, but oh well, this is an emergency!" She unzipped the bag, and started searching. "Clothes, clothes, more clothes, even more clothes, a prese-Hey! A present! Who could it be for? She looked at the perfectly wrapped gift. "Hm…Oh, here's the label! To Sakura: let's put the past behind us, and we could possibly become great friends! That's weird, Sakura and Hinata are already friends, what's the meaning of this?" She found the first aid kit, opened it, and found a note, and ointment inside. "I shouldn't read this," Ino repeated at least 6 times, but went against her will, and began to read it.
Ino searched the note for anything scandalous, but found nothing interesting, just a list of supplies she needed to purchase for her first aid kit. That was when she turned it upside down, and saw a blood stained "Help Me" written obviously very shakily. She dropped it, her mouth agape from the sight of it.
"Can I help you with something?"
Ino jumped at the voice that had come from behind her. She turned around and saw a very angry Sakura. "Why are you going through my stuff?"
Ino looked at her and said in a very matter of fact tone, "I was looking for a first aid kit, explain this, Sakura!" and she shoved the note into Sakura's face.
Sakura looked shocked for a second, but then screamed, "You idiot! This is a Halloween brand note! See!" She pointed at the bottom of the note that said 'Happy Halloween!'
Ino apologized for snooping around, and she applied the ointment to her injuries, and claimed instant relief from it. She stood up and walked towards the group as Temari said she performed a 'special' type of CPR in which she slapped Sakura hard across the face.
"Watch, it could be done like this!" She said, slapping Tenten hard across the face, causing her trip over the nearby log, and fall.
"You bitch! I'll get you back for that!" shouted a very angry Tenten. She stood up and started chasing Temari in a cat and mouse type way. Hinata giggled at the sight of it, but immediately stopped when she turned around to see Sakura looking slightly upset.
"H-Hey Sakura, what's w-wrong?" questioned Hinata politely. The girls all turned around, and watched.
Sakura noticed and looked at Hinata, and instead of replying with something nasty, and uncalled for, she sighed, "I've just- I want to apologize to you Hinata, for what I said back there. It was really out of place for me to say those things, and I was wrong. I know we have our differences, and I appreciate you giving me that gift. For now, can we just put them aside, and get along for the sake of them?" She pointed at the girls. They all smiled, and then turned around, and became distracted with what they were doing.
"S-s-sure Sakura, but I don't get w-why we can't be fr-" Sakura grabbed her by the collar, changing her whole attitude, looked her right in the eyes, and said, "Listen closely, I apologized to you, I don't do that for anyone, now let it go. I don't like you that much, so you need to just accept it. I don't want that stupid gift, so just drop this stupid little good girl act, and don't get in my way, and the next time that you hit me, you'll have bruises all over your body."
Sakura then tossed her towards the ground, in which Hinata caught herself, and looked at Sakura, her eyes filled with dejection. The girls saw Hinata on the ground, and came running over. "Hinata, what happened?" asked Temari.
"Oh, um..." The girl hesitated, "I fell."
Ino gave her a knowing look, and started screaming at Sakura, "What the hell is your problem, you jealous bitch! You know Hinata wouldn't try to hurt anyone, so you're just a WHORE." She spit out the last word, like she threw it up.
Sakura, however, had more than a fire within her. She fought back with, "Oh look, little pig's always got something to say, you go through my stuff, and call me a whore? Some friend you are!"
Hinata had tears in her eyes, 'I caused this',she thought. She stood up, and did something nobody would expect. "Stop…FIGHTING!" she shouted with tears streaming down her face.
"You guys are acting like you're in second grade, we need to stop focusing on fighting, and more on who attacked us, and why," Temari scolded sternly.
"That would be…us."
Two men stood right behind them, both of them pale, with cold eyes that look like they've witnessed a murder, and body language that instantly spelled trouble. They stood side by side; one had crimson red eyes, thick dark hair in a unique style, and was wearing a slightly unzipped grey shirt and a blue cloth with a purple rope tied around it and a popped collar, with blue wrist warmers and dark blue pants and black sandals. The boy to the right of him had spiky blonde hair, an earring, a black shirt with a green vest on top of it, a slashed headband with a symbol tied around his neck, and black pants, with blue bright sandals, with an obnoxious grin.
"You guys are such creeps! How can you attack women like that?" shouted Tenten.
Temari joined in and barked, "You guys are disgusting roaches, just go to hell, where you belong." The man with the crimson eyes smirked, and in an instant, punted Temari into a nearby tree.
"Just shut up before you make me even more mad," said the red eyed boy with an emotionless voice.
Ino looked alarmed and ran over to her friend. "These guys are tough, I'll give them that," whispered Temari, her voice cracking from the pain she was experiencing.
The blonde man cleared his throat and chirped, "Hey Sasuke, can we get some ramen after this? I'm really hungry. Can't we just leave these girls alone now?" Sasuke replied simply responded with a no.
Temari stood up and started shouting, "So your name is Sasuke? I've heard of you, you lived in the leaf village, and disappeared after the murder of Itachi Uchiha. Did I get all of the details right?"
Sasuke looked at her. "Hn." He ran towards her. Sakura grabbed a knife from her bag, and jumped in front of Temari. Everything seemed to happen in an instant.
Drip, Drip, Drip.
R&R!
