Hey everyone, I'm going to just go straight to the story and explain things in the end. Please enjoy this chapter.
Sakura no Akuma
It was a quiet and dark night as a carriage had reached the castle that the great demon lived.
Haku opened the door to let the guest in.
"Is he waiting in his room?" The guest asked.
"Yes, Yamanaka-sama." Haku said.
"How's Sakura-san?" Ino asked as she smiled at a portrait of Sakura in the hall.
"She should be sleeping right now. Itachi-sama doesn't like her staying up so late." Haku said.
After a couple minutes, the two finally reached Itachi's room and was surprised to see Itachi glaring at Kisame who had Sakura behind him.
"Let go of her now!" Itachi growled.
"I just want some blood!" Kisame whined. "I've been here for the past four days since you won't let me go home!"
"Anyone's but Sakura's!" Itachi said.
"B-But, I want to help Kisame!" Sakura said.
"No!" Itachi said. "Go back to sleep!"
"What, so you can go drink Ino-san's blood again?" Sakura said as her cheeks turned red.
"I told you before that demon like the taste of human blood." Itachi sighed.
"Then you can go drink my blood!" Sakura said pulling down the right sleeve of her sleeping gown. Her creamy white shoulder was lit with the moonlight. Itachi felt this weird sensation and he didn't like it.
"Itachi-sama…" Ino began to speak as she walked up to him. "Let me go home early tonight. But you can come over tomorrow night. If you don't, you won't drink my blood anymore. That is all." She finished with a smile.
"Itachi-sama! First off, that girl knows your identity as a demon on earth, and is the only person willing to provide you with blood. If you anger her, you won't be able to drink blood anymore!" Haku whispered.
"Yeah, I know." Itachi whispered back.
"Well, the best solution is to just give up drinking blood. It's not like you really need it you know what I mean? Look at me, I don't drink blood!" Haku smiled.
"Why is everyone whispering?" Sakura pouted.
"You be quiet! This all happened because of you!" Itachi said as he pinched Sakura's cheeks and stretched them. Itachi was hoping for Sakura to cry but instead she smiled which, to be honest, freaked him out a bit.
"What's wrong?" Itachi asked.
Sakura continued to smile. "Itachi touched me!"
Itachi's eyes widened before they became normal. He grinned at her. "You are a weird one alright!"
She really was a weird one.
Every since she was little, she'd always follow after me giggling all the time.
Eventually she began to bring me flowers.
When a demon touches a flower, it withers and dies. But she kept bring them to me, never getting discouraged.
I was scared. I was scared that this little flower of mine would wither and die if I touched her.
I was scared of losing her.
So I made sure to never touch her, but….
"I love you Itachi! I love you even if you are a demon. I want to be by your side forever."
Itachi smiled at the memory. Sakura was six when she had a very high fever. She probably didn't know what she was saying.
The next night, Itachi was getting ready to meet up with Ino. Haku had walked him to the door. To be honest, he was surprised that he didn't see Haku chasing down an upset Sakura down the hallways.
"Is Sakura asleep?" Itachi asked in curiosity.
"I think so. I haven't heard a peep from her since dinner." Haku said.
"And Kisame?"
"Right here!" Kisame grinned. "I'll be escorting you to that chick's place!"
"Ah…" Itachi said. "Check up on Sakura for me!" Itachi said to Haku before closing the door. As the two demons entered the carriage, something bothered Itachi. There was this white bird circling the castle.
XxXxXxXxX
Sakura pouted as she kept on tossing around in her bed. She couldn't sleep. She had a feeling Itachi and that Ino girl was going to meet up again. Why couldn't Itachi just drink her blood? Is it because she wasn't as developed or pretty as Ino? Sakura looked down at her chest and frowned. She hated herself for being such a late bloomer. Sakura began to cry as tears rolled down her cheek. She soon realized that her night gown was very revealing at the moment. She didn't care though. It wasn't like a man was going to barge into her r-
CRASH
Sakura got up startled. She was surprised to see a person with long blonde hair and blue eyes stare down at her. The person was flying on a bird.
"Well, what do we have here, un?" The stranger said while hopping off the bird. "You're a beautiful one, aren't you? Beautiful girls like you shouldn't be crying. Let me cheer you up."
Before Sakura knew it, the stranger grabbed her by the waist and hopped on the bird. Sakura's bedroom door soon opened to reveal a nervous Haku.
"SAKURA-SAMA!" Haku said. He soon looked to see who dared to kidnap Sakura. "You!" He exclaimed with wide eyes.
"Long time no see Haku! I'll be taking Sakura out for a while. Tell Itachi to wait for my arrival, un."The stranger grinned before taking off in the night.
Sakura watched as Itachi's castle was getting smaller and farther away.
"I've been in need of blood for a while." The person said. "Will you let me have a taste, un?"
Sakura blushed as she felt the person get close to her face. The person took a strand and brought it to his lips. Sakura' eyes darkened as she thought about Itachi and Ino again.
"Go ahead!" Sakura said bitterly. "It's not like he'd drink my blood anyways. Who are you anyways?"
Her abductor grinned. "I'm a friend of Itachi. My name is-"
XxXxXxXxXxX
"DEIDARA!" Haku screamed. "Wait till Itachi-sama gets his hands on you!"
Haku was currently pacing around the hallway nervously. He was waiting for Itachi's and Kisame's return. The maids and butlers were cleaning the mess in Sakura's room.
"Urg! I hope Itachi-sama doesn't kill me!" Haku cried.
"Why would I kill you?"
"EEK!" Haku said as he slowly looked back to see Itachi looking down on him with a suspicious glare. "What are you doing here so early?"
"Kisame forgot his bottle of sake and you know how he is about it." Itachi commented. "So why would i kill you?"
"Haku-sama, we were able to clean Sakura-sama's room!" One of the maids said.
"What happened to Pinky's room? Don't tell me she's that childish to still pee in her bed or something!" Kisame grinned.
"Itachi-sama. I'm sorry! He came and took her away!" Haku cried.
"Who?" Itachi growled. Everyone froze as the room felt like it just got colder.
"The famous clay demon named Deidara." Haku said. "He took Sakura-sama away and she's dressed so indecent! He's going to do something to taint her innocence!"
"Haku, shut the fuck up." Itachi snarled as his eyes turned red and his fangs began to grow out.
"Well shit, Itachi's pissed off as hell. That girly-man is as good as dead." Kisame said. "It's about time someone beats the shit out of that brat!"
"How are you going to find Sakura-sama?" Haku asked.
"Did you forget Haku?" Itachi grinned evilly. "I'm the underworld's top demon." Once he said that, his large black claw-like wings sprouted out of his back.
"I so don't want to miss this!" Kisame said as he too sprouted wings. Kisame took hold of Haku as the three flew away from the castle.
XxXxXxXxXxX
Sakura sighed as she found herself in an abandoned building. The place looked like it would fall apart.
"Can I go home?" Sakura asked annoyed.
"Not until Itachi comes." Deidara said as he was forming clay bombs in front of her.
"Are you in love with Itachi?" Sakura asked.
Deidara gave Sakura a 'WTF' look but ignored her after that.
"Why do you have hands on your mouth?"
Ignored.
"Are you a man or a woman? To be honest, I can't really tell." Sakura said.
"Why you little-"Deidara stopped as he really got a look at the girl. She had long pink hair that reached her to her butt. Soft creamy skin that seemed really soft. Mesmerizing emerald eyes that seemed like the windows to her soul. If his best friend saw her, he would have wanted her for his collection. She was art!
"How did someone like you end up with Itachi, un?" Deidara asked.
"Itachi took me in when I was a baby!" Sakura smiled.
BA-DUMP
Deidara's eyes widened as he turned around so his back was facing Sakura. What was that just now? His face felt really warm. Oh hell no, he did not have feelings for this human girl. That would be a disgrace to the demon world. His mission for coming up here was to convince Itachi to come back home or just eliminate the girl in front of him.
Deidara looked back to see the human girl in front of him had fallen asleep. Scooting next to her, he brushed a few strands of hair behind her ear.
"Itachi…" Sakura whispered. Deidara frowned. Something told him that this girl was really attached to Itachi. Lucky bastard.
Deidara soon felt a gust of wind. He looked to see that great demon himself with Kisame and Haku behind him. Deidara gulped as he saw Itachi's eyes glowing red. That was usually a bad sign.
"Give me back Sakura." Itachi growled.
"What is she to you?" Deidara asked as Itachi picked him up by the collar of his shirt. "She's just a human. Don't tell me you love her? How pathetic! Humans and demons can never be together!"
"She's my human!" Itachi said as he threw Deidara to the wall. Itachi crouched down to pick Sakura up in his arms. "Mess with Sakura again and I'll kill you."
Silence was present between them. Slowly Sakura moved in his arms. "I-Itachi?"
"I'm here Sakura. It's alright." Itachi said as he smiled at her. Deidara's eyes widened at the scene. Even though Humans and demons can never be together, he had never seen a couple more perfect for each other than these two.
"I see." Deidara muttered as he got up. Sakura looked to see the blond man disappear into a black portal.
"That brat!" Kisame muttered.
XxXxXxXxX
"Ami!" Ino called out as she was in her living room looking out to the full moon. "Is he here yet?"
"Sorry Ino-sama. It seems like Itachi-sama isn't coming tonight." Ami said.
"I see." Ino responded as she closed her eyes. She lost to Sakura-san once again.
She would need to have a proper talk with Itachi soon.
XxXxXxXxX
"So what happened with the elders down below?" Haku asked. It was morning as everyone was in the living room. Sakura was sitting between Haku and Itachi as Kisame and Deidara sat on the other couch. The night Deidara failed to bring back Itachi and eliminate Sakura, Deidara went back to talk to the elders.
"They said that I should have just killed the girl when I got the chance, yeah." Deidara said as he frowned. "So I told them to let me just stay up here and research what is so special about Sakura here."
"Great, more guests in the house!" Itachi said bitterly.
"We don't need another brat in the house." Kisame grinned as he took a shot of his liquor.
"Its okay. Deidara-chan can stay in my room. We are girls after all!" Sakura grinned. "I'm sure, I have clothes that could fit you!"
Itachi's, Kisame's, and Haku's eyes widened before laughing.
"Oh god! I love this girl!" Kisame said as he coughed on his drink.
"Heh." Itachi smirked as he turned his head to side so no one could hear or see him chuckle.
"You shouldn't be laughing Haku!" Deidara said. His face was red with embarrassment. "You're the one who looks more like a girl than i do!"
"Hmph, for your information, I chose to look like a girl to help Sakura-sama!" Haku said.
"You're not a girl?" Sakura said surprised.
Deidara smirked as he brought Sakura close to him. Haku's mouth dropped as Deidara had his left arm wrapped around Sakura's waist and tilted her head with his right hand. "Do girls do this to each other?" Deidara asked once he brought mouth closer to Sakura's ear.
"Not unless you roll that way." Sakura said with a smile. Deidara fell to the ground defeated.
Kisame and Haku began to crack up again as Itachi smirked once more.
"Sakura." Itachi's soothing voice said. "You like Deidara right?"
Sakura nodded. "I want to become friends with Deidara-kun."
"Good, then show him you like him the demon way." Itachi said as he gave Sakura a push towards Deidara. Sakura saluted Itachi as she jumped on Deidara and kicked him in the balls followed by a bite on the arm.
"So it was you who showed Pinky how to attack me!" Kisame exclaimed as he point his finger at Itachi. "What kind of friend are you?"
"Who said we were friends?" Itachi said. "It's too bright today. I'm going to sleep."
XxXxXxXxXxXxX
In the Demon World…
"So even Deidara failed to bring back Itachi…" Elders listened as the King walked around in the room. It was clear to see he was mad.
"What is keeping him back?" one of the elders asked.
"Supposedly a young girl he's raising. It's a mockery to us demons." The king said.
"Should we bring our most powerful demon up there?" Another suggested. The king shook his head.
"No, it would be too early. Instead, I want you to bring out our next player." The king smiled.
"Do you mean-"The elder didn't finish talking as the king raised his hand.
"Yes, bring that one." The king said. "Let's see how my family member can handle this doll."
XxXxXxXxXxX
Sakura smiled.
Today was the first day that Itachi allowed her to go in town by herself. Well that is if you had a sleepy Itachi, who slept-talked, say yes.
Sakura decided to go around towards the center of the town as she made it to a bridge over a river. Not seeing where she was going, she had bumped into a boy around her age. He was holding a basket of what seemed to be dog toys as he dropped them into the river.
"Oh no!" The boy cried.
"I'm so sorry!" Sakura apologized. She quickly took off her dress as the boy blushed.
"W-What are you doing?" The boy asked.
"I'm going to get them back!" Sakura smiled as she jumped into the river. The boy soon followed after her.
After a couple minutes, the two had collected all the toys. Sakura took the chance to really look at the boy. He was really handsome with spiky brown hair and what seemed to be like red tattoos on his cheeks. Interesting…
The boy in turn blushed when he noticed Sakura's intense stare.
"You're cute!" Sakura smiled innocently. The boy even blushed more.
"I-I'm Kiba Inuzuka." The boy introduced himself.
"My name is Sakura!" Sakura said as she was putting on her top layer. Kiba noticed that her dress seemed really elegant and rich. That's when it clicked.
"You wouldn't happen to live up in the castle, would you?" Kiba asked.
Sakura nodded. "Why, yes I do. What's with all the dog toys?"
"My family owns a dog shop/vet. Would you like to see them?" Kiba offered.
"I'd love to!" Sakura cheered.
XxXxXxXxXxX
"WHERE IS SHE?" Itachi growled as he lifted Deidara up in the air by the throat.
"Why are you asking me?" Deidara choked.
It was past dinner time and Sakura hadn't come home yet. Haku had spent most of the day looking for her but came back without her. He had just told Itachi, which caused the reaction now.
"Well, you did just recently kidnap her." Kisame said as if he were talking about the weather.
Deidara frowned and was about to say a comeback to Kisame when the front door opened, getting all the demons' attention.
"Thank you for the fun day, Kiba-kun!" Sakura's cheerful voice echoed into the quiet house. Kiba blushed but soon paled as he noticed the deadly aura behind Sakura.
"Who are you?" Itachi asked.
"I-I-" Kiba was about to piss his pants.
"He's my friend Kiba-kun!" Sakura said. "Sorry for being out too late. His family owns the vet in town."
"I don't want you seeing him again." Itachi said as he bent down to get eye-level with her. Sakura's eyes widened before she narrowed hers.
"But I want to be with Kiba-kun!" Sakura said as Kiba blushed. Seeing this, Itachi sent daggers at Kiba.
Deidara smirked. "So it seems like the ol' mighty demon Itachi has some competition for Sakura's attention, un."
"Demon?" Kiba questioned as his brown orbs widened with this sudden knowledge. Was the beautiful Sakura a demon as well? Everyone all glared at Deidara who sweat-dropped.
Well aw shit…
Hey everyone! It's been a while since I've updated this story. Been every busy. I was going to have Naruto play 'Momo' Hana's first human friend, but then that would be so cliché. So I chose Kiba since Momo has an older sister like Kiba does. So taa-daa. Hope you guys liked this chapter. Please review everyone, it will bring a smile to my face.
