"I received intels that you're coming, Sasaki An," one of the elders from the Uzumaki said as An lead his team into the main hall. He knew what the vampire wanted, however, he could not loss the ground here. This was his place, his ground. "I know what you want," he said in an impersonate tone, "I am no Namikaze Kazuto, I would not let go of my clan members easily, especially a fine one like our young Naruto."
"Mind your tongue, boy," ignoring An's gestured, Kazuhiko splashed out. "You've no place to judge my aniki."
"But it was true, Namikaze Kazuto has made an utterly mistake. See who is standing here, who dares to talk when the master did not permit to do so..." The rest of the elders smirked in disgust. "Leaving his own clan behind, for an immortal, a monster. And most importantly, a monster of the same sex."
"I would sympathise, rather understable, or even be a considerable brother if I am Namikaze Kazuto, if your have picked a well grown woman, rather than this flat chest, boney monster." Echoed by one of the elders at the corner, feeling couraged to split his vermon as the vampire seems did not react to any of those words.
"Aye aye," the rest of elders echoed. They decided to insult the vampire leader before the latter raised his request. Hoping to turn the table around and holding more bargaining chips. "we are not letting our boy to join the monster group, especially when it was with a freaking creature like your clan. A male monster? No way."
An cleared his voice after holding all his members down, as even Neji was frustrated, his anger was showing in his white opaque eyes. "You have insulted many ancient clans here, gentlemen." He looked around like headmaster to young students. "You have not only just insulted us, the Sasaki, but also the Senju, the Hyuuga, the Namikaze and also the Hatake. Most of them were your fellows and possibly some of their blood still flow in your blood. Your blood is nowhere as blue as ours." He smirked. "If we are monsters, and you are all not too far to keep clean."
"That's why we are not letting you," the remain quiet one finally broke his silence. "You steal clansman from other family. You like collecting head jewels. You're not only taking them away, making them became monster but also letting them mingle with the other same sex, . it was disgusting, and utterly dishonorable to our Lord. "
"That's their choice, none to be dishonourable to the old man up in the Heaven." An replied sternly. "I am only clan head, not their slave master. They can be with who ever we want. Besides, I don't need offsprings. They would be here with me. And that," he smirked. "I am only asking for a boy, which the Namikaze has already agreed. Besides," he narrowed his eyes, " Uzumaki needs girls, only girls can produced red hair offsprings."
"We have no more boys that we can give the Church," the secretary spoke finally, " Naruto is the one that we have."
An heaved a sigh, "for Church, I can deal with it. So can let go or not?"
"No," the oldest remained still. He stood up, "still not under my watch. I would not let you thinking that you can convince anyone as you pleased. You are no God and I'll not let you pass.I am challenging you, Sasaki An, only if you can win."
"Okay," An clapped his hands together, "what do you want ?"
"Our skills of black magic, after all Uzumaki is the best at our seals."
"That's not a fair game, An chan," Kazuhiko rushed to his lover. "I am certain that he knows your weak points. It's too risky if you're out of control."
"That's the reason that I drink less, partially, " the vampire replied aside. "Don't worry about me. Let me show the world how much it meant to run across the Sasaki, and let my name shake this world again."
As soon as the other vampires stepped away from their master. The elder began. A white unicorn jumped from the philosopher's circle. The unicorn moved so quickly that An got hit right by the heart as the animal pieced his horn through An's ribcage. "Yes," the elder cheered.
"Argh," An puke a large puddle of black blood." He wiped his mouth with the back of his right hand, grinned deviously. "Thanks," he laughed chilling. "I have guessed that." The blood splitted into droplets and moved, scattering in front of the man.
The secretary screamed. "Ki-sama, watch out, those are not Sasaki's blood, but the Doomed Blood."
"Huh, you think you can win by using the Fallen's? I am the odd occasion in Uzumaki history who can summon the aid from St. Micheal-sama," he raised his hand, " let my angels to crush you on the ground and below."
The white light pieced into the black shadows that were crawling towards the Uzumaki, yet none disappeared. The family crest that were engraved the back of the shadows revealed as the white light passed through. Senju, Uchiha, Otsutsuki revealed and lastly the symbol of Lucifer, the King of Fallen.
Light suddenly went off, dark cloud surrounded Ki and An. He could only see An's grey eyes, looking down on him. "What have you done to them?" the elder questioned in horror. "All the noble bloods flow in you. How's it possible. When i heard of the rumours, I have never believed it. Monster."
"You should be grateful that you can see this shadow jutsu. There're many people who can ask for Lucifer-san's aid. Defeat under such jutsu honoured you, old man."
The elder dropped on his knees, " I defeat." If he has to compare to his skills, there may be thin chance, but for power, he thought the vampire was weak, he did not think that he would use the Fallen's power.
Before the vampire walked away, he asked, "tell me," he flew a photo towards An, "who's this?"
The vampire looked at the silver haired in the photo, although most of them have silver haired, An face was blank as even most people didn't know, but he saw the mini family crest on the clothing. It was no others but his own self.
"What about this person?"
"My grandpa was even thinking about that person till his deathbed. I have asked around, no one knows."
An sighed, "only if you have asked a member of Sasaki, they could have told you easily , or probably not, because of your manner. The truth is, that's me."
The man's face turned white and heaved tiredly. "Is you…" he murmured. "go. You can take Naruto into your clan. The day since Kushina has gone, I guessed we have loss the chance of mixing Namikase's blood.
"No matter what I do or did, there are things already planned. Things're destined. It is difficult to keep a clan in place. You can trust me on that, I understand too."
"Whatever you say, get yourself treated." He waved at Kazuhiko as the darkness die out, letting the lights in, "if there are few open secrets, I almost through the Fallen has felt for you instead… you know, underneath the smell of Namikaze, you stink like him."
"I take this as compliment," An's tone was carefree, but his eyes, only Ki could see, was serious. "But I am not the one that he loves."
"When only you're so blind from love." There were simply too many people in your heart, if you have one."
"Maybe I never. " The vampire countered in low voice. "Maybe I am just playing everyone's feeling."
