~~~~~~~~~~1 year after the destruction of the Village Hidden in the Blood~~~~~~~~~~
18 year-old Kiba Inuzuka was training with his teammate Shino Aburame on a bright sunny summer's day, when they were both summoned to the office of the 3rd Hokage. When they arrived the noticed several of their fellow shinobi standing in front of the desk of the 3rd “Whoa” Kiba thought to himself “Either the 3rd just remembered that huge bar fight last week and we're all in trouble, or this is one hell of a mission is he needs six Jonin and three Chunin” Kiba looked around, standing around him was Naruto, Shikamaru, Shino, Neji, Yasashiku a Jonin around 50 years of age, Kakashi, Asuma and Sasuke as well. Some of the best ninja in the village
“Listen closely everyone.” The 3rd Hokage said standing up. “I have a very important mission for all of you” Suddenly there was a shout of joy from the back of the room followed by Naruto running towards the 3rd Hokage and throwing is hands on his desk. “What's the mission old man?! Are we guarding a beautiful princess? Or are we stopping an assignation attempt on one of the other Kages?” yelled the eccentric Naruto.
“Naruto, will you please calm yourself” Kakashi said in his usual bored tone.
“Yeah dope, calm down before you wet yourself.” Sasuke said, annoyed at his paranoid teammate. Everyone bust out into hysterical laughter as Naruto turned to throw a verbal barb of his own at Sasuke but was stopped by the Hokage.
“Quiet Naruto, I was just about to explain you mission.” He said. Naruto backed into the crowd. “You will all act as ambassadors of a sort. As you have heard the Village Hidden in the Blood was destroyed approximately one year ago. You will be transferred to the Village in order to help the survivors of the attack rebuild.”
“But I investigated that incident Lord Hokage” Yasashiku interrupted “There were no survivors; everything was burnt to the ground.”
“According to the reports I have just received” The Hokage explained “The nine remaining members of the village have been wandering around the continent looking for a new home. They have recently established a new village in an unknown location. But they have requested nine male shinobi to be transferred to them.”
“Wait a minute” Shikamaru piped in “Wasn't the Village Hidden in the Blood a village of vampires?”
“Yes that is correct” Lord Hokage replied.
“And isn't it correct that every several years they will ask for a few sacrifices from each village?”
“Correct”
“And also that the sacrifices are seldom heard from again”
“Yes”
“And isn't it also true that vampires drink blood”
“I know what you are implying Shikamaru and they have ensured me that no harm will come to any of you. I have the word of the 6th Vampkage. Now does anyone else have any questions?”
“Yeah” Kiba said bored by this whole affair “How long will this mission take?”
“You all are being permanently transferred to the Village Hidden in the Blood” the Hokage replied looking down at his desk as the room fell silent.
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN PERMANENTLY?” Yelled Naruto. “We worked hard to become ninja of the Village Hidden in the Leaves; you can't just take that away from us!”
“I'm afraid I must, you will not be stripped of your rank or your positions here. You will always be welcome as shinobi but unfortunately, you must also become ninja from the Village Hidden in the Blood, you will now be under the rule of the Vampkage.”
“What if we wish to decline the mission” asked Neji
“I'm afraid that isn't an option, this is a mandatory mission. I you do not fulfill it then the Vampkage has assured me, it will lead to the destruction of Konoha.” The Hokage said sadly. “Does anyone have anymore questions?” The room was silent “Good, you leave tomorrow evening at sunset. As part of the agreement, you are not allowed to carry any weapons with you. You are dismissed.” Will that they all disappeared to their homes, to bid good-bye to their family and pack for their new mission.
The next day the group of shinobi meet at the gates of Konoha, each carrying one bag filled with clothing, and a few personal items. They were let out of the gate at approximately a few minutes before sunset. They all stood closer then usually, for they all felt a sense of nervousness that was different from any other they had felt before. A feeling one gets when they deliberately throw themselves into the lion's den. Though none would admit it they were all terrified of what was to come. They all looked to the west as the sun slowly began sinking below the horizon. Slowly it crept, deeper and deeper behind the line of the earth. Suddenly as soon the last slit of sun disappeared behind the earth, seven mysterious ninja appeared all wearing headbands with a broken heart shape carved on the metal.
“Are you the ninja from the Village Hidden in the Leaves?” The one whole appeared to be the leader asked.
“Yes, yes we are” replied Yasashiku, slightly startled by their sudden appearance. The ninja who had spoken looked back at one of his comrades and nodded. This ninja stepped forward and preformed several hands signs.
“Blinding Jutsu!” he cried out. The group of Leaf ninja were instantly blinded. They all tried to keep their cool, but the panic was hard to hide of their faces.
“Calm yourselves” another one said. “This is only temporary, we do not wish to harm you but the location of our Village must remain a secret, continue Kurenai.” They group of men heard the sound of hand signs being made and a shout of “Sleeping Justus!”, before they were all sent into a deep sleep.
Several hours later they all awoke in a large stone room. Kiba looked around to see a pink haired woman sitting in a large chair in the center of the wall opposite him. On each side of her four women stood in a line, each dressed in elegant looking kimonos. The others are also awakening slowly we all stand in a straight line facing the women. The pink haired woman stands and looks at us. Her eyes held no emotion, and seemed to stare right through him. “Welcome ninja from the Village Hidden in the Leaves, my name is Sakura Haruno, you will address me as Haruno-san or Lady Vampkage.” She said in a toneless voice.
“WHAT!?!” came a yell from the line of Leaf ninja. The entire congregation turned to look at the source of the out cry. And of course it was none other than the loud mouth idiot known as Naruto Uzumaki. “ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT THE VAMPKAGE IS A CHICK!?!?!” Naruto yelled at the top of his lungs. A silent groan escaped the men. “Naruto will you ever learn to hold your tongue?” Kakashi thought as he stared at his former pupil. Kiba watched the women standing before him, the Vampkage was looking very annoyed, the women lined up beside her looked equally annoyed but also somewhat fearful, except for one. She was a small petit woman, slightly paler than her fellow vampires; her eyes were a clear lavender color; very similar to Neji's. Unlike the other women her face held no trace of annoyance, she actually looked rather amused.
“What is your name?” The Vampkage asked her face now inches away from Naruto's.
“My name's Naruto Uzumaki, the next Hokage, REMEMBER IT!” He yelled in his usual annoying voice. The Vampkage gave Naruto a disgusted looking before turning her back to him and walking along the line of ninja looking each one up and down with little interest. “As I was saying, you will address me with respect or you will pay the price. You will each be assigned a partner, you will listen to her commands and you will become her companion. She will be responsible for your actions. Now we shall begin the selections.” With these final words she swiftly turned on her heels and returned to her seat. “We will begin with Princess Akina.” They all watched as a girl with light purple hair and sea green eyes, walked slowly out of line and walked carefully down the line of Leaf ninja and stopped in front of Sasuke. “Please follow me” she said in a quiet yet confident voice. Akina walked out of the room through a large wooden door with Sasuke close behind her.
“Tsunade, you next” A woman with long yellow hair stepped forward and made a bee line for Yasashiku and signaled for him to follow her, they left the hall taking the small route as Akina and Sasuke had. They continued for several minutes, the Vampkage calling out the names of her ninja one by one. In the end, Asuma went with a red-eyed woman named Kurenai, Shikamaru left with a beach blond named Ino, Naruto when with the woman who was amused with him whose name turned out to be Hinata, Shino was lead away by a golden haired woman named Temari, Neji followed a chocolate haired woman named Tenten, and Kakashi followed a wild looking woman named Anko. They all left the hall until only Kiba and the Vampkage were left.
Kiba watched nervously as the pink-haired woman walked slowly towards him and stopped. “Follow me” she said in her cold tone. She turned and quickly walked out of the hall; she turned left and began to climb a set of stone stairs. “Listen to me carefully because I don't plan on explaining this to you more than once.” She said as they continued to climb. “First of all what is you name?”
“I'm Kiba Inuzuka, and this is Akamaru” Kiba replied indicating the small white dog sitting on his head. “First of all, I have grounds to kill you right here and now.” She said casting a glare back at him. “The agreement said no weapons; technically speaking a ninja dog is considered a weapon.” Before Kiba could reach he found himself pinned to the wall with a kunai to his throat.
“Wh-what the hell is your problem?” he stuttered out, as he stared into the cold icy depths of her jade green eyes. He felt his body begin to shake, looking into her eyes was like looking into the eyes of death. She would kill him with out a second thought. Sakura noticed his shaking and smiled. She leaned in and whisper darkly in his ear. “Remember this feeling Inuzuka, remember that I am death, if you obey me I will pass over you, but if you choose to be defiant then you have chosen to feel the icy kiss of my blade.” As she finished speaking she licked his ear, causing another shiver to run up his spine. She then pushed away from him and put the kunai back in its pouch, and continued up the stairs. Kiba slowly followed her making sure to keep a safe distance. He wasn't sure what had just happened, but he understood the fact that this woman, Sakura Haruno, was not someone that should be played with. If he was going to be stuck with her for awhile, he was going to have to be careful. He messing with fire and he was going to get burned if he wasn't careful.
