Now Let’s Get Started.
(Time Skip- One Month)
Alucard sighed deeply as he looked out over the village of Konoha. It had been a month since he had come to this village seeking refuge. It had been a month since he had met Naruto and Anko and invited them to live with him. It had been a month since he had introduced the Hokage to Lilith. It had been a month since he had found a home.
He sighed again as he remembered all of the problems that had occurred over the past month. The first problem that he thought about was his meeting with the Shinobi and Civilian Councils.
Flashback
Alucard examined the people in the Council Chambers. Those he was familiar with were Hiashi Hyuga and Fugaku Uchiha, the current heads of their respective Clans. On his walks through the village he had gathered that the Hyuga and the Uchiha Clans were considered to be the most powerful in the village
Alucard already held a strong dislike towards the Uchiha after hearing about their Kekkei Genkai (1). He believed that one should have to work hard to obtain power, not copy it with a single glance. He had devised and put into place on his body, a seal that covered his body in a shell of chakra. Lilith had been a great help with this as she was a seal master. He had also placed them on Naruto and Anko after Lilith had suggested it.
The Hyuga Clan on the other hand fascinated him. To be able to see 360 degrees and the tenketsu points must be quite useful. He was also curious to see how Hinata was doing and vowed to talk with Hiashi soon. He also wondered how the creature he had sent to guard Hinata was doing. There had been no trouble reported recently so he guessed that it had not yet been discovered.
Of all the people in the room that he was not familiar with, only two had caught his attention. One was a member of the Civilian Council. Half of his face was wrapped in bandages and his right arm was in a sling. The man was looking form him to Naruto, then onto Anko and Lilith. Alucard was not sure why, but this man made him feel nervous, and he decided he did not like the man.
The other was a woman on the Shinobi Council. She had shaggy brown hair, fangs, and claws which gave her an altogether feral appearance. She also had red triangles on her cheeks. What had captured his attention however, was the massive black wolf that was lying at her side. He had seen several people in the village with similar markings and they almost always had a dog with them. He had planed on asking the Hokage about them, but this meeting had been called before he could. The reason he was so interested in these people was that they seemed to have a bond with their dogs similar to his bond with his Family. (Official name for the Xenomorphs from now on.)
The Hokage cleared his throat to get the attention of everyone in the room. Once he saw that all eyes were on him, he began to speak in a calm tone,
“I would like to thank the two Councils for meeting today, as there are important matters that need to be addressed. First I am going to guess that you are wondering who these children are.”
All of the Council members nodded.
“You are also probable wondering why Naruto Uzumaki and Anko Mitarashi are present as well.”
When he said this all of the Civilian Council as well as Fugaku Uchiha and the Elders began to glare at the two of them.
When Alucard saw this he felt his anger spike and knew that he had begun to leak the dark chakra. He felt all the eyes in the room focus on him and he just stared back without blinking. He felt something soft envelop his hand and looked to his left. Lilith was grasping his hand and was looking at him with worry apparent in her eyes. He smiled softly and let his anger leave him and felt the dark chakra recede. He raised his right hand and stroked her cheek and saw the worry drain from her eyes. Many of the Council members were surprised at the level of intimacy that the two seemed to share. Lilith released his hand and they both turned to face the Councils. They then looked to the Hokage and nodded, motioning for him to continue.
The Hokage nodded and began to speak again, this time in a firmer tone,
“These two are one of the matters that I wished to discuss today. This is Alucard and Lilith. They have recently moved into this village after Alucard’s family was killed. Lilith, who is betrothed to Alucard, escaped with him. The reason he is here today is because his paperwork had just finished being processed. They are now citizens of Konohagakure.”
When he finished speaking most of the Council members were looking at the two with interest, wondering what made them so special that the Hokage would call for a Council meeting. A few minutes later the bandaged man spoke,
“Hokage-sama, things like this happen every day. Why did you call this meeting for something so simple?”
The Hokage nodded his head and spoke once again,
“That is usually correct Danzo-san. However, these two are a special case. First off is that they are already betrothed. Secondly they have already been granted a home and a small plot of land. Third they have invited both Naruto-kun and Anko-chan to live with them. Finally they both have a Kekkei Genkai, which has never been seen before.”
When he said that last sentence the entire room was filled with noise and the Civilian Council became enraged. The Shinobi Council members were whispering amongst themselves, wondering what the children’s Kekkei Genkai did.
Suddenly a Civilian Council member, a woman with bright pink hair, stood and pointed at Anko and Naruto while shouting angrily,
“Hokage-sama how can you let both the Demon and the Snake Whore corrupt these innocent children. They should be removed before…”
Her next words died in her throat as a massive blast of KI filled the room, causing all noise to stop. All eyes in the room focused on the source, the child named Alucard. They noticed that his eyes had become completely black and reflected the entire room in themselves. Alucard then spoke for the first time, his voice filled with both power and anger,
“You will hold you tongue, pink haired wench. I may be somewhat new to this village and its customs, but I have already seen several things that disturb me greatly. I have been in this village for almost a week now and have already had to save Naruto-kun from being lynched and Anko-chan from being raped! The only reason I have decided to stay in this village is to protect these children who have no way to defend themselves. I have taken them into my home knowing full well of Naruto-kun’s “burden” as well as Anko-chan’s “sensei.” I consider them to be my family and I will no longer tolerate this foolish hatred!”
When he finished his speech he once again felt the softness envelop his hand, and then felt himself being grabbed in a hug by Lilith, Anko, and Naruto. He felt both Anko and Naruto were shaking, and he knew that he was scaring them. He gave a heavy sigh and the KI in the room vanished, allowing the Council members to breathe again. Naruto, Anko, and Lilith let his go, and then Lilith and Anko gave him a kiss on the cheek. Alucard looked at the Council and took note of their reactions.
The Civilian Council, with the exception of Danzo, were all terrified of him. The Shinobi Council on the other hand were stunned that a child so you could produce so much power. They were also curious about his eyes as none of them had ever seen anything like them before. A few seconds later, two gasps were heard form the Shinobi Council. Everyone turned towards the sound and saw that both Hiashi Hyuga and Fugaku Uchiha had activated their Kekkei Genkai and were staring at the boy.
They turned towards the Hokage and Hiashi spoke in a slightly nervous and hushed tone,
“Hokage-sama, what is this child, I can not see his chakra network at all. There seems to be some kind of chakra shell covering his entire body from top to bottom.”
At this most of the people in the room began to talk loudly amongst one another. While this was going on Fugaku had drawn a kunai from his robes and then vanished in a burst of speed. The Hokage called for quiet and once it was he noticed that Fugaku was gone and wondered where he had gone. He got his answer a moment later when Fugaku appeared in front of Alucard and tried to stab him with a kunai. The Hokage knew that he could not get to Alucard in time and shouted,
“NO!”
An instant later there was the thud of metal hitting something hard. When the Hokage looked again he saw one of the creatures had stopped the blade cold. He saw that Lilith was still by Alucard’s side and wondered where the creature had come from.
The creature was unlike those that he had seen before. This one was larger than the ones with the strange tubes on their backs. This one did not have tubes on its back and it stood at over 9 feet tall. The head was unlike the others in that instead of being a tube like shape, it fanned out into the crest near the rear of the skull. It had larger claws and seemed to me more resilient to damage than the others. It was looking at the man whose blade it had stopped.
When the Hokage looked at Fugaku he saw that the man was completely ignoring the creature in favor of staring at Alucard with his Sharingan. After a few seconds Fugaku spoke in a trembling tone,
“Wha… What are you?!”
Alucard looked at the man in the eyes and replied in a sad tone,
“I am Suffering and Loneliness.”
A single tear fell from his eye as he said this, knowing full well what the Sharingan saw. Lilith saw this and once again wrapped him in a warm embrace. She then sent a mental command to the creature holding back Fugaku. The eyes of everyone in the room widened as the creature spoke in a dry, raspy and inhuman voice,
“You… Shall…Not…Hurt our…Master!”
Its hand flashed out, slamming into the Uchiha with enough force to snap several ribs as well as send him flying. He slammed into the wall behind the Civilian Council creating a small crater in the wall, as well as cracks that spider webbed through out it. He coughed up a bit of blood before losing consciousness and falling in heap on the floor.
Almost every single person in the room was shocked by the power the creature held. Its movements were smooth, fluid, and incredibly fast. None of the shinobi in the room had been able to sense it until it had revealed itself. Also it had just taken down the head of the most “powerful” clan in Konoha with a single hit. The man had even had the Sharingan active! The Shinobi Council while stunned, were not afraid of the boy or the creature but instead were in awe of their power.
The Civilian Council on the other hand was absolutely terrified of both the boy and the creature, and all of them had backed against the wall that Fugaku had hit. The only civilian that was not afraid was Danzo, who was staring at the children and the creature with a strange glint in his eye.
The Hokage had watched all of this with a look of shock on his face, but he quickly recovered and began to leak KI into the room.
“Enough! Council members return to your seats now!”
Everyone on the Civilian Council obeyed, although they were very reluctant and hesitated for several seconds. The Hokage then snapped his fingers and three ANBU appeared in the room. He pointed at Fugaku, who still lay in a heap on the floor under the crater, and said, “Take this man to the hospital. After he is examined arrest him for attacking a civilian without reason.”
Before the ANBU moved Alucard’s voice once again rang out, this time perfectly calm,
“Hokage-sama I would ask that you not arrest Uchiha-san. I understand the reasons for his attack and will not be pressing charges.”
All eyes in the room were on him once again and he simply shrugged. The Hokage nodded his head and motioned for the ANBU to continue. They picked up Fugaku and vanished in a swirl of leaves. The Hokage looked at the remaining Council members, and saw that they were all looking at the creature, who was now standing next to Alucard. He cleared his throat to gain the attention of the room once again and began to speak,
“This is the final matter that will be discussed today. These creatures came to this village with my permission. They are currently living in a cave system that Alucard created under his home with my permission.”
The Shinobi Council was once again looking at Alucard, wondering just how powerful this boy truly was. The Civilian Council were merely murmuring amongst themselves. Alucard decided to scare the Civilians a little more as he still felt anger towards them after he remembered the mob he had saved Naruto from when he had first arrived in the village. He raised hi hand drawing the attention of everyone in the room once again, and snapped his fingers once. A few moments later a dozen of the creatures stepped out of the shadows. These were the ones that the Hokage had seen before. Several of the small one fell from the ceiling and landed on the shoulders of the children, who smiled and began to scratch the tiny creatures heads, causing the creatures to purr softly.
The Civilian Council cringed away form the creatures while the Shinobi merely examined them. Alucard’s attention was drawn to the large wolf that was sitting by the side of the woman who had captured his attention as it stood up. It walked over to the nearest of the creatures and began to sniff at it. The creature responded by starting to move its tail back and forth a few seconds later the wolf turned back to the woman and spoke,
“Tsume-san these creatures do not seem to hold any evil within them. They also have the scent of a deep cave on them.”
When the wolf finished the woman, Tsume, looked at Alucard and Lilith with an appraising eye. She looked at the Hokage who seemed to know what the woman was going to ask and said,
“I would as that you hold off on questioning them for a few days until they are a little more settled into their home.”
Tsume nodded her headed and looked back to Alucard and Lilith with a soft smile on her face,
“My name is Tsume Inuzuka, head of the Inuzuka Clan. When you are able I would like you to come visit me at my families home, I believe that we have much in common.”
Alucard and Lilith both bowed to the woman and then Lilith spoke for the first time, her voice beautiful and soft yet it carried around the entire room with ease,
“Arigato Tsume-san, we will come to visit you within the next few months. You are one of the first people in this village to show us kindness, and for that we are great full. Hokage-sama if that is all then I would ask that you dismiss this meeting, I am tired and would like to return home.”
The Hokage nodded and Anko, Lilith, Naruto, and Alucard walked out of the room. The creatures backed into the shadows and vanished leaving no traces of themselves behind.
Flashback END
As Alucard came out of his thoughts he sensed a presence to his left and turned his head. He smiled softly as he found lilith sitting next to him with an expression of happiness on her face. She was looking at the stars instead of the village, something she did every night since she had come to this village. Alucard guessed that it was because his Family never really got to see them from their last home. She sighed and leaned her head against her shoulder and he wrapped his arm around her.
“Can’t sleep?” he asked softly.
“No. I just wanted to see the stars... and you.” she responded, “what were you thinking about?”
“I was just thinking ablut all the problems that have occured in the past month.”
“You mean like the assassination attempt.”
“Yeah.”
Flashback (Two Weeks Ago)
A shadow dashed over the rooftops of Konohagakure, heading towards the building looming in the distance. He tried his hardest not to be seen, knowing that if he was discovered he would more that likely be killed. He grinned as her reached the massive stone wall of the Complex without any trouble. Using chakra he quickly scaled the wall while keeping watch for any of the creatures that he had been warned about. He reached the top of the wall and seeing none he jumped and latched onto the side of the building. He had been told that his targets had been seem on the roof of this building at the same time for the past two weeks.
He dashed up the side of the building as quickly as he could, soon reaching the roof. As he silently slipped over the edge of the roof, he noticed his targets sitting side by side looking out over the village. With a sneer he pulled out two kunai and prepared to throw them. As he moved his arm to release them something latched onto it. He then heard a sound that made even his black heart stop. It was a hiss and the sound was coming directly form his left, and he felt the damp breath of something wash over him.
He turned his head toward the sound and found a dripping maw, filled with silvery teeth. He also noted that there seemed to be a smaller mouth within the first, also lined with teeth. A second later he felt a wrenching pain in his shoulders, before he lost consciousness and fell to the roof limp. The creature picked the man who had dared try to hurt its masters up and walked over to them. She dropped the man in front of them and sat on her haunches waiting for orders.
Alucard and Lilith looked upon the man that was brought before them with no emotion apparent on their faces. After several seconds Lilith looked towards the creature and spoke in a emotionless tone,
“Make an example out of him.”
The creature nodded her head and picked the man up roughly, causing him to groan. The creature let out an unearthly screech and several more of the creatures appeared on the roof. When they sat the man they began to hiss and their tails began to thrash about wildly.
As Alucard looked at the man before him a thought occurred to him. He grinned and whispered into Lilith’s ear, and she began to grin twistedly. She then sent a mental command to the creatures and they all nodded their heads. The creature that was holding the man jumped off the roof to carry out her masters orders. The others faded into the shadows without a sound and began to search for any other intruders.
The Next Day ( Hokage’s Office)
The Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, sighed as he began to battle his greatest enemy, paperwork. He wondered how the fourth had been able to to it and still manage to have free time. He was considering about using a fire jutsu to take care of his problem, when the door to his office was flung open and an ANBU wearing a dog mask came rushing into the office.
“Hokage-sama, come quickly there has been an incident.”
The Hokage head the mans tone and became worried immediately.
“Did something happen to Naruto or Alucard?”
“Hokage-sama... it’s best if you see for your self.”
The Hokage rose from his chair and the ANBU leapt away, quickly followed by the Hokage.
15 Minutes Later (Outside the Complex)
The Hokage stared in shock at the sight before him. In all of his years as of being a ninja he had never seen anything quite like this. Before him on the massive stone door that led to the Complex, was a man. The Hokage recognized the man as a B-ranked Missing Nin who was wanted for murder and rape. This caught the Hokages attention as he wondered how the man had entered the village undetected. However these thought were pushed from his mind as he wondered how the man had gotten to where he was now.
WARNING! Violence Ahead Skip if you want!
The man was nailed to the door with kunai impaling his wrists and ankles. Blood was still dripping off the ends of the kunai showing the man was still alive, if only just. He was not wearing a shirt revealing his chest into which te kanji for “assassin” was carved. His shoulders were broken, if the small shard of bone sticking out of them were any indication. The most shocking things about the man were his eyes and the message on the wall behind him. His eyes had been gouged out of his head, leaving only empty sockets where they had once been. It looked like the man had been crying blood. Written on the wall above the man were the words,
“Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter Here”
It was written in blood.
Violence END”
The Hokage turned to the ANBU who had brought him here and said,
“How many others know about this”
“Only the patrol who spotted him and any civilians who had wandered by, but otherwise, no one.”
“That’s good, we don’t need a panic started because of this. I want you to ger the man down, alive if possible. If he is alive then take him to the hospital discreetly and tell them that no mention of this is to reach the outside.”
“Hai, Hokage-sama!”
With that the ANBU vanished to retrieve the necessary equipment to get the man down alive.
The Hokage sighed and rubbed his temples, knowing that this was going to cause problems and worse yet, paperwork. He walked up to the smaller door that was embedded into the first and knocked. A few seconds later the door opened and revealed one of the creatures. It looked at the Hokage of a moment, then dashed off towards the main building. The Hokage walked through the door and heard it close behind him. He knew that he was not in any danger as he trusted Alucard completely.
About five minutes later he watched as Alucard and Lilith both walked out of the building, trailed by the creature. They both had calm expression on their faces but the Hokage could sense the anger boiling just beneath the surface. He wondered where Anko and Naruto were and got his answer a few seconds later as they both came running out of the building. They reached Alucard and Lilith before the two could reach the Hokage, with Anko falling into step with Lilith, and Naruto running in a circle around the creature. When the group reached the Hokage Naruto ran up to him and gave him a hug while shouting
“Ojji-san!”
Anko and Lilith just smiled and shook their heads, while Alucard just shook his head at his “Otouto’s” antics. The smile fell from Lilith and Alucard’s faces as they looked at the Hokage.
“I assume you are here due to the guest outside?”
The Hokage nodded his head noting the confused looks on the faces of Anko and Naruto. He guessed that Lilith and Alucard had not told them, so as not to scare them.
“He came uninvited so we decided to make an example out of him. I’m sorry if the way we dealt with him was extreme to you, but it was the best way to get our point across.”
The Hokage looked at Lilith, surprised at her flat tone. The then looked at Alucard and that he was showing no emotion what so ever. He felt his heart twinge slightly at seeing that look on a child’s face, one that belonged on a that of a verteran shinobi. When he saw that look he made up his decision, he would do whatever he could to protect these children he looked directly into Alucard eyes and said,
“Don’t worry about this, I will take care of it.”
“Arigato Hokage-sama.”
Alucard had received a message several days later, stating that the Nin had died on the way to the hospital, and that no charges were going to be filed.
Flashback END
Alucard sighed once again as began to feel sleepy. He looked to Lilith once again and smiled as she was already asleep. He gently shook her shoulder until she awoke. She gave a big yawn before he pulled her to her feet and then back to his side. They took one last look at the star filled sky before deciding to go to bed. Alucard and Lilith both had the same thought running through their minds,
‘The red moon is very beautiful.’
As they turned to walk inside the wind shifted. They both stopped dead in their tracks as the smell of blood and death filled their noses. They looked toward the direction the scent was coming from and realized that it was coming form the area where most of the Clan Complexes were located. They both looked at one another and nodded. They vanished a second later running towards the scent at full speed, intent on finding the source.

(Time Skip- One Month)
Alucard sighed deeply as he looked out over the village of Konoha. It had been a month since he had come to this village seeking refuge. It had been a month since he had met Naruto and Anko and invited them to live with him. It had been a month since he had introduced the Hokage to Lilith. It had been a month since he had found a home.

Alucard already held a strong dislike towards the Uchiha after hearing about their Kekkei Genkai (1). He believed that one should have to work hard to obtain power, not copy it with a single glance.

He felt both Anko and Naruto were shaking, and he knew that he was scaring them. He gave a heavy sigh and the KI in the room vanished, allowing the Council members to breathe again. Naruto, Anko, and Lilith let his go, and then Lilith and Anko gave him a kiss on the cheek. Alucard looked at the Council and took note of their reactions.

She then sent a mental command to the creature holding back Fugaku. The eyes of everyone in the room widened as the creature spoke in a dry, raspy and inhuman voice,
“You… Shall…Not…Hurt our…Master!”
Its hand flashed out, slamming into the Uchiha with enough force to snap several ribs as well as send him flying. He slammed into the wall behind the Civilian Council creating a small crater in the wall, as well as cracks that spider webbed through out it. He coughed up a bit of blood before losing consciousness and falling in heap on the floor.
Almost every single person in the room was shocked by the power the creature held. Its movements were smooth, fluid, and incredibly fast. None of the shinobi in the room had been able to sense it until it had revealed itself. Also it had just taken down the head of the most “powerful” clan in Konoha with a single hit. The man had even had the Sharingan active! The Shinobi Council while stunned, were not afraid of the boy or the creature but instead were in awe of their power.
The Civilian Council on the other hand was absolutely terrified of both the boy and the creature, and all of them had backed against the wall that Fugaku had hit. The only civilian that was not afraid was Danzo, who was staring at the children and the creature with a strange glint in his eye.
The Hokage had watched all of this with a look of shock on his face, but he quickly recovered and began to leak KI into the room.
“Enough! Council members return to your seats now!”
Everyone on the Civilian Council obeyed, although they were very reluctant and hesitated for several seconds. The Hokage then snapped his fingers and three ANBU appeared in the room. He pointed at Fugaku, who still lay in a heap on the floor under the crater, and said, “Take this man to the hospital. After he is examined arrest him for attacking a civilian without reason.”
Before the ANBU moved Alucard’s voice once again rang out, this time perfectly calm,
“Hokage-sama I would ask that you not arrest Uchiha-san. I understand the reasons for his attack and will not be pressing charges.”
All eyes in the room were on him once again and he simply shrugged. The Hokage nodded his head and motioned for the ANBU to continue. They picked up Fugaku and vanished in a swirl of leaves. The Hokage looked at the remaining Council members, and saw that they were all looking at the creature, who was now standing next to Alucard. He cleared his throat to gain the attention of the room once again and began to speak,
“This is the final matter that will be discussed today. These creatures came to this village with my permission. They are currently living in a cave system that Alucard created under his home with my permission.”
The Shinobi Council was once again looking at Alucard, wondering just how powerful this boy truly was. The Civilian Council were merely murmuring amongst themselves. Alucard decided to scare the Civilians a little more as he still felt anger towards them after he remembered the mob he had saved Naruto from when he had first arrived in the village. He raised hi hand drawing the attention of everyone in the room once again, and snapped his fingers once. A few moments later a dozen of the creatures stepped out of the shadows. These were the ones that the Hokage had seen before. Several of the small one fell from the ceiling and landed on the shoulders of the children, who smiled and began to scratch the tiny creatures heads, causing the creatures to purr softly.
The Civilian Council cringed away form the creatures while the Shinobi merely examined them. Alucard’s attention was drawn to the large wolf that was sitting by the side of the woman who had captured his attention as it stood up. It walked over to the nearest of the creatures and began to sniff at it. The creature responded by starting to move its tail back and forth a few seconds later the wolf turned back to the woman and spoke,
“Tsume-san these creatures do not seem to hold any evil within them. They also have the scent of a deep cave on them.”
When the wolf finished the woman, Tsume, looked at Alucard and Lilith with an appraising eye. She looked at the Hokage who seemed to know what the woman was going to ask and said,
“I would as that you hold off on questioning them for a few days until they are a little more settled into their home.”
Tsume nodded her headed and looked back to Alucard and Lilith with a soft smile on her face,
“My name is Tsume Inuzuka, head of the Inuzuka Clan. When you are able I would like you to come visit me at my families home, I believe that we have much in common.”
Alucard and Lilith both bowed to the woman and then Lilith spoke for the first time, her voice beautiful and soft yet it carried around the entire room with ease,
“Arigato Tsume-san, we will come to visit you within the next few months. You are one of the first people in this village to show us kindness, and for that we are great full. Hokage-sama if that is all then I would ask that you dismiss this meeting, I am tired and would like to return home.”
The Hokage nodded and Anko, Lilith, Naruto, and Alucard walked out of the room. The creatures backed into the shadows and vanished leaving no traces of themselves behind.
Flashback END
As Alucard came out of his thoughts he sensed a presence to his left and turned his head. He smiled softly as he found lilith sitting next to him with an expression of happiness on her face. She was looking at the stars instead of the village, something she did every night since she had come to this village. Alucard guessed that it was because his Family never really got to see them from their last home. She sighed and leaned her head against her shoulder and he wrapped his arm around her.
“Can’t sleep?” he asked softly.
“No. I just wanted to see the stars... and you.” she responded, “what were you thinking about?”
“I was just thinking ablut all the problems that have occured in the past month.”
“You mean like the assassination attempt.”
“Yeah.”
Flashback (Two Weeks Ago)
A shadow dashed over the rooftops of Konohagakure, heading towards the building looming in the distance. He tried his hardest not to be seen, knowing that if he was discovered he would more that likely be killed. He grinned as her reached the massive stone wall of the Complex without any trouble. Using chakra he quickly scaled the wall while keeping watch for any of the creatures that he had been warned about. He reached the top of the wall and seeing none he jumped and latched onto the side of the building. He had been told that his targets had been seem on the roof of this building at the same time for the past two weeks.
He dashed up the side of the building as quickly as he could, soon reaching the roof. As he silently slipped over the edge of the roof, he noticed his targets sitting side by side looking out over the village. With a sneer he pulled out two kunai and prepared to throw them. As he moved his arm to release them something latched onto it. He then heard a sound that made even his black heart stop. It was a hiss and the sound was coming directly form his left, and he felt the damp breath of something wash over him.
He turned his head toward the sound and found a dripping maw, filled with silvery teeth. He also noted that there seemed to be a smaller mouth within the first, also lined with teeth. A second later he felt a wrenching pain in his shoulders, before he lost consciousness and fell to the roof limp. The creature picked the man who had dared try to hurt its masters up and walked over to them. She dropped the man in front of them and sat on her haunches waiting for orders.
Alucard and Lilith looked upon the man that was brought before them with no emotion apparent on their faces. After several seconds Lilith looked towards the creature and spoke in a emotionless tone,
“Make an example out of him.”
The creature nodded her head and picked the man up roughly, causing him to groan. The creature let out an unearthly screech and several more of the creatures appeared on the roof. When they sat the man they began to hiss and their tails began to thrash about wildly.
As Alucard looked at the man before him a thought occurred to him. He grinned and whispered into Lilith’s ear, and she began to grin twistedly. She then sent a mental command to the creatures and they all nodded their heads. The creature that was holding the man jumped off the roof to carry out her masters orders. The others faded into the shadows without a sound and began to search for any other intruders.
The Next Day ( Hokage’s Office)
The Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, sighed as he began to battle his greatest enemy, paperwork. He wondered how the fourth had been able to to it and still manage to have free time. He was considering about using a fire jutsu to take care of his problem, when the door to his office was flung open and an ANBU wearing a dog mask came rushing into the office.
“Hokage-sama, come quickly there has been an incident.”
The Hokage head the mans tone and became worried immediately.
“Did something happen to Naruto or Alucard?”
“Hokage-sama... it’s best if you see for your self.”
The Hokage rose from his chair and the ANBU leapt away, quickly followed by the Hokage.
15 Minutes Later (Outside the Complex)
The Hokage stared in shock at the sight before him. In all of his years as of being a ninja he had never seen anything quite like this. Before him on the massive stone door that led to the Complex, was a man. The Hokage recognized the man as a B-ranked Missing Nin who was wanted for murder and rape. This caught the Hokages attention as he wondered how the man had entered the village undetected. However these thought were pushed from his mind as he wondered how the man had gotten to where he was now.
WARNING! Violence Ahead Skip if you want!
The man was nailed to the door with kunai impaling his wrists and ankles. Blood was still dripping off the ends of the kunai showing the man was still alive, if only just. He was not wearing a shirt revealing his chest into which te kanji for “assassin” was carved. His shoulders were broken, if the small shard of bone sticking out of them were any indication. The most shocking things about the man were his eyes and the message on the wall behind him. His eyes had been gouged out of his head, leaving only empty sockets where they had once been. It looked like the man had been crying blood. Written on the wall above the man were the words,
“Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter Here”
It was written in blood.
Violence END”
The Hokage turned to the ANBU who had brought him here and said,
“How many others know about this”
“Only the patrol who spotted him and any civilians who had wandered by, but otherwise, no one.”
“That’s good, we don’t need a panic started because of this. I want you to ger the man down, alive if possible. If he is alive then take him to the hospital discreetly and tell them that no mention of this is to reach the outside.”
“Hai, Hokage-sama!”
With that the ANBU vanished to retrieve the necessary equipment to get the man down alive.
The Hokage sighed and rubbed his temples, knowing that this was going to cause problems and worse yet, paperwork. He walked up to the smaller door that was embedded into the first and knocked. A few seconds later the door opened and revealed one of the creatures. It looked at the Hokage of a moment, then dashed off towards the main building. The Hokage walked through the door and heard it close behind him. He knew that he was not in any danger as he trusted Alucard completely.
About five minutes later he watched as Alucard and Lilith both walked out of the building, trailed by the creature. They both had calm expression on their faces but the Hokage could sense the anger boiling just beneath the surface. He wondered where Anko and Naruto were and got his answer a few seconds later as they both came running out of the building. They reached Alucard and Lilith before the two could reach the Hokage, with Anko falling into step with Lilith, and Naruto running in a circle around the creature. When the group reached the Hokage Naruto ran up to him and gave him a hug while shouting
“Ojji-san!”
Anko and Lilith just smiled and shook their heads, while Alucard just shook his head at his “Otouto’s” antics. The smile fell from Lilith and Alucard’s faces as they looked at the Hokage.
“I assume you are here due to the guest outside?”
The Hokage nodded his head noting the confused looks on the faces of Anko and Naruto. He guessed that Lilith and Alucard had not told them, so as not to scare them.
“He came uninvited so we decided to make an example out of him. I’m sorry if the way we dealt with him was extreme to you, but it was the best way to get our point across.”
The Hokage looked at Lilith, surprised at her flat tone. The then looked at Alucard and that he was showing no emotion what so ever. He felt his heart twinge slightly at seeing that look on a child’s face, one that belonged on a that of a verteran shinobi. When he saw that look he made up his decision, he would do whatever he could to protect these children he looked directly into Alucard eyes and said,
“Don’t worry about this, I will take care of it.”
“Arigato Hokage-sama.”
Alucard had received a message several days later, stating that the Nin had died on the way to the hospital, and that no charges were going to be filed.
Flashback END
Alucard sighed once again as began to feel sleepy. He looked to Lilith once again and smiled as she was already asleep. He gently shook her shoulder until she awoke. She gave a big yawn before he pulled her to her feet and then back to his side. They took one last look at the star filled sky before deciding to go to bed. Alucard and Lilith both had the same thought running through their minds,
‘The red moon is very beautiful.’
As they turned to walk inside the wind shifted. They both stopped dead in their tracks as the smell of blood and death filled their noses. They looked toward the direction the scent was coming from and realized that it was coming form the area where most of the Clan Complexes were located. They both looked at one another and nodded. They vanished a second later running towards the scent at full speed, intent on finding the source.
