"Fucking flat... am I actually cursed... I haven't had a not flat soda in months."
"Who knows." Moka stated with a giggle when they finished the movie, and Naruto complained about the flat soda that he had been forced to try and drink. It was so consistent, that even she was starting to wonder if Naruto had been cursed by some kind of evil spirit that made his sodas flat.
She just leaned up against him, and put her hand on his knee.
"Are you trying to drink my blood?"
"Can I?" Moka asked him with her stomach growling in agreement. Naruto just loosened his collar and gave her free access. "Thank you for this meal." Moka very politely told him, before she gave his neck the nibble that she wanted to. His blood offered her such a vitality filled flavor, full bodied, slightly salty to keep her thrist alive, and just overall healthy, hearty, and horribly addicting. It really helped that the both of them had Type B blood she would guess, because their shared blood type just made for an excellent meal for her.
It matched her tastes so well.

Naruto removed her rosary when she wasn't paying attention, and the change occured quickly. Her hair turned silver and she gained a dark aura of power. Green eyes became red, and her fangs grew longer than before. He could feel that difference, since she had been sucking on his neck when she transformed. Moka glanced up at him with a different personality in her eyes, before she glanced away and continued to suck his blood.
"Whenever you're finished, I have a serious question for you."
'A serious question for me... this blood is just delicious.' Moka took her mouth from his neck, and licked the small amount of blood remaining from her lips. 'The flavor the Outer Me can taste pales in comparison to the richness deep within it. There is just a vortex of complexity here.' Moka closed her eyes and savored the remaining flavor for another moment.
It was everything Outer Moka enjoyed and more.
There was so much raw energy in the blood, that it actually made her feel a little stronger just from drinking it.
"So, this question you have... is it related to vampires?" Moka asked Naruto, since she could only imagine that was why she was woken up.
Naruto paused.
"... I just want to get to know you better too. You're also Moka, but you're different from her in some ways. Moka's my best friend, and I want to get to know her... all of her." Naruto didn't fulfill her expectations when he spoke. He surprised her.
Moka had to think about it.
'He's very precious to both of us. I guess he doesn't realize I've been watching him for so long too... should I let him get to know me too?' Moka had to think about her answer very carefully. She was the 'scary inner vampire' version of herself. Despite not being the active personality, she had all the memories of the Moka that everyone knew better. She knew of the feelings that her outer version had, and she shared in many of them. '... I don't want to scare him off. He seems serious about getting to know me though.' Moka saw the intense desire in his eyes.
"If you don't want to, that's okay."
"I guess I don't mind, but you should know, I'm not like the other Moka. She's much nicer than I am."
"Are you sure about that, the two of you both seem really kind to me." Naruto spoke, and Moka looked at him with some surprise, before she looked away with a huff of pride. She had no words at all for him. "Also... I've reached my peak... no matter how much I train, I just don't get stronger. I feel that if danger comes, I'm going to have to rely on you some... so sorry in advance." Naruto apologized with a genuinely sorry smile.
Moka looked back to him, eyebrow raised.
"I don't understand why you need to apologize. Rely on me all you want, I need to protect myself anyway. Naruto... I have a question for you." Moka turned her entire body, and she faced him with her eyes filled with a vibe he couldn't understand.
"You do?"
"Do you really not see a big difference between me and her?" Moka asked him.
"Of course I don't. You're both Moka, and both of you are my friend. I mean, don't we all have a side to ourselves we don't show anyone... it just so happens that you're the side Moka doesn't show often. I mean, even I keep a side of myself hidden from everyone." Naruto didn't see why Moka would wonder about that. If this was Moka's true nature, then that didn't matter to him. She still shared memories and emotions with the other Moka, all that changed were some personality traits.
Moka just stared into his eyes, trying to gaze into his soul.
The room was dark enough that he didn't see her blush when she looked away.
"Oh... that's a foolish way to think. The other Moka and I couldn't be more different."
"Does Moka get a lot of memories from when you're the awake one?" Naruto asked her, and she raised a hand to show "so-so". The implication that Moka got hazy memories when she was awake again was enough for him. That meant that she wouldn't be completely out of the loop when she woke back up.
There was a very heavy silence.
Moka made herself comfortable.
"Well, go make some more snacks. You watched this movie with the other me, so you might as well watch it with me as well." Moka stated with a wave of her hand.
'She just wants to watch a movie.' Naruto deadpanned in his head. He shrugged his shoulders while standing up. He looked to see Kurama was paying close attention to Moka now that she was different. He scratched the fox behind the ears, before he walked to the microwave and loaded it up with another bag of popcorn.
Moka glanced back at him and watched him.
"Naruto, don't salt it or add too much butter. It's unhealthy."
"Okay then, I guess I'll just added some shredded cheese then." Naruto raised an eyebrow. The other Moka enjoyed salt and butter on her popcorn. Moka seemed satisfied with the cheese idea though.
Kurama looked at the clock, before he looked out the window at the moon.
Finally, he looked at Naruto's seal.
12:00
Naruto was walking towards Moka with the popcorn, but the second the clock struck 12:00, his eyes dulled as a incredible sense of fatique struck his body. He felt as if all the energy in his body was drained from him. The bowl slipped out of his hand, hitting the floor. That alerted Moka to something happening, and she saw Naruto stumbling around with his hand on his head.
"Naruto?"
"Uh... I just had this... this intense..." Naruto's eyes were fluttering as he stumbled around.
"Naruto!" Moka jumped to her feet and rushed to him when he fell over. She caught him before he hit the ground, but she noticed at a touch that his body was ice cold. He had broken out in a heavy sweat, as if he had just run an entire marathon in a second. He looked exhausted, and it just happened out of nowhere.
Kurama was satisfied with what happened.
"Moka... sorry... I just suddenly feel so... drained..."
"More than drained you idiot. You should have told me that I sucked too much blood. You're body is ice cold, and you can't even stand." Moka was pissed that he didn't stop her from bringing him to this state. She and the other Moka both drank his blood, meaning that she took twice the amount of blood she would normally take. "You idiot... oh... this isn't good. He's lost way too much blood." Moka muttered as she picked Naruto up.
"This... is kind of embarassing."
"Shut it, this is just as much your fault as it is mine. You need to tell me no when I'm drinking too much blood. Do you know how much the other me is going to worry about you over this?" Moka started to march her way out of his room. She was going to take him to the school's hospital wing, and she wasn't going to take no for an answer on this.
-The Next Day-
"Ah... he isn't here." Mizore whispered to herself when she came back to class.
Why did she even come to class?
'I did that to him... I didn't mean to hurt him.' Moka thought with a heavy guilt weighing on her.
"Due to illness, Uzumaki-kun is going to be taking off a few days for sickness." Nekonome announced to the class. She had been told by the school doctor that Naruto was strapped to one of the hospital beds, because he refused to stay still and rest.
-With Naruto-
"Let me out of this."
"No, you're suffering from severe fatigue, exhaustion, blood loss, and you can barely stand on your own."
"I'm perfectly fine." Naruto said, knowing that he was lying through his teeth.
"No, you aren't."
"I'm fine."
"You literally were at the brink of death. You're lucky you seem to be a resiliant brat."
This was why the doctor had to strap Naruto to the bed.
