Summary: Time seems to bleed together when you have immortality, but what right do I have to admit that? I haven't 'lived' for more than a thousand years, in fact, I only been wondering the Earth for only an extra three hundred. I want something to attach on to in order to feel that I have a purpose, so I come upon a rural town called Konoha.

Chapter 6: No More Secrets

(P.O.V. Third person)

Naruko sat her desk and twirled her pen in a thoughtful manner. She hummed to her favorite song on the radio: She Wolf.

She loved Shakira's songs. To her, Shakira's songs had a soft dance beat to them; not too fast and not too slow. Then again, she also loved Lady Gaga's songs too…

"…Let it out so it can breathe…" Naruko sung along.

Her eyes glanced over to the roses in a vase which stood proudly on her dresser top.

That reminded her about the date she went on with her boyfriend. Well, she wouldn't say boyfriend, more like soon-to-be mate. She sighed dreamily; that werewolf was so… what she craved. Yes, the others didn't like the age difference, but she wasn't like those other bitches that prowled for younger guys. Jiraya was outgoing, sexy, active, smart, nice, and well built. He had one flaw though: he was a complete pervert. Where ever they went, he had to flirt or say something nasty to nearly very thing that walked on two legs. Strangely though, on their date today, he didn't do that, but was very loyal and paid for everything. She thought he was up to no good, until he asked to take things a bit further, that he wanted their relationship to be more than a passing fad.

Naruko shivered at the dirty thoughts that flooded her mind, but shot up out of her seat when she felt the presence of a vampire rapidly approaching.

"Aw, fuck. How did a vampire find us?" Naruko muttered to herself. She ran down the stairs and plastered herself against the front door. To Hell was any vampire getting to enter her home with Naruto…

"Naruto!" She cried out in despair. "If it found me, then could it have—"

"Thanks, it was… fun…" A familiar voice said.

Naruko sighed in relief when she heard her brother's voice, but that feeling didn't last long. She felt the same presence of that vampire right outside of the house where Naruto currently stood; which she confirmed when she looked out the window past the curtains.

Naruto stood outside of a vehicle and was talking to someone within it. Naruko shifted to get a better look at the person. She noticed it was Sasuke from earlier, who drove up to their house and asked for Naruto that morning. Her heart skipped a beat.

"N-no fucking way! But… it could only be from him! How come I didn't know earlier? Was I that distracted?" Naruko said to herself.

"No problem, Dobe. Want to go to the arcade tomorrow?" Sasuke suggested.

If they weren't at the arcade today… then where the fuck…? Naruko thought to herself; her blood begun to boil. How dare Naruto lie to her!

Naruko wanted to run out there, scoop Naruto in her arms, and run back into the safety of their home, but she feared that if she did, it would start a blood bath that could either kill her or hurt Naruto; so that kept her feet firmly planted. Her fingers twitched and the wood of the window frame begun to crumble.

"Sure! Same time?" Naruto questioned.

Sasuke nodded.

"Yeah, see you then." Sasuke said.

What Naruko saw next made her rip the window locks off.

Naruto's and Sauke's lips met and molded together. Their hands groped any body part that was within reach. They stayed like that for far longer than she ever wanted them to be. When they broke apart, Naruto's face was flushed and Sasuke had a smug smirk on his; which Naruko wanted to scratch off.

They said their farewells, Sasuke drove off, and her little brother walked back to the house. When Naruto was a few inches from the door, Naruko yanked the door open, threw Naruto in the hall way, and closed the door.

She heard Naruto hit the floor, but didn't look back, even after she locked the door.

"What the fuck is your problem, Naruko?!" Naruto yelled behind her.

She shook her head; her mind couldn't process an answer. It swam through the fog and twisted around the idea of murder. Of course she wouldn't hurt her brother, but that filthy, good-for-nothing vampire was going to meet her claws.

Naruko was spun around and pinned to the door by an angry and confused Naruto.

"I'll ask you again, what has gotten into you?" Naruto questioned.

"I'll tell you what's wrong. Y-you were kissing—"

"You saw that!" Naruto said. A heavy blush moved across his cheeks, but he quickly recovered. "Why would you care who I kissed? I already told you that I was gay."

"It isn't that!" Naruko yelled. "It's that, that you kissed a vampire!"

"Yeah? So? Wait a minute, how did you know that?" Naruto paused. Sasuke said he was the only one that knew he was a vampire, so how Naruko knew that was beyond him.

Naruko cussed herself out mentally. Of course Naruto didn't know she and he were werefoxes. He didn't know that she could sense that aurora. Then that raised another question, how did he know that Sasuke was a vampire?

"How did you—" Naruko started.

"He told me! But you still haven't answered my question." Naruto said. He glared at his older sister. That is when he noticed that the window seal and locks were destroyed. He wanted to ask her how that happened, but his first question overruled that one, so he waited for his sister to start talking.

Naruko stood there for a long period of time, her eyes empty as she weighed the pros and cons of telling her brother the truth. No matter which side she weighed, each cause and effect, they both weighed the same. Plus, from what she saw earlier, Naruto looked… happy. It has been a while since she saw him truly smile. Maybe, this was a good thing for him. Also, if Sasuke was going to harm Naruto, wouldn't he have done it a long time ago?

Naruko sighed and intertwined her fingers.

"Naruto, I gotta tell you the truth…" Naruko whispered.

"No shit." Naruto snapped.

Naruko flinched, but she felt that she deserved the harsh treatment.

"I know this is going to turn your world upside down, but if you took the news Sasuke gave you easily… this won't be too surprising." Naruko looked into her brother's eyes, full of determination, anger, and confusion. "I'm a… werefox."

She saw her brother's face twist up in surprise, horror, more confusion, and acceptance. She thought he would hate her or run off, or both. Never had she came across the thought that he would just accept it that quickly. Then again, her brother found out that Sasuke was a vampire, so maybe he wouldn't 'freak out' about everything else.

"Wow… so if you are a… then am I…?" Naruto pondered. Well… that answered the first question. He thought to himself.

Naruko nodded.

"Yeah… and so are Kiba, his family, Shikamaru, and his family, but they are werewolves. The reason why you didn't know that Sasuke was a… vampire… earlier is that you haven't come of age yet." Naruko pointed to Naruto's belly. "When you turn nineteen this year, your 'true self' will emerge."

"My 'true self'? What is that suppose to mean? And why my stomach?" Naruto questioned. He pulled his shirt up and looked down at the family crest. When he was just a kid, their father told him that it was tradition to tattoo the first born son, but… now it made a little sense. Still, why leave him blind to the truth?

"Well… when you were born, you were very powerful for a baby. To keep you from accidentally killing everyone, father had to make a powerful seal to keep your strength at bay. The Elders, our parents, are hoping that when you turn nineteen you will be able to control yourself. There is a bigger problem than that though; when father contained your power, he also sealed away your… well, I don't know how to explain it, but you might… your personality might change."

Naruto backed up slightly and let his shirt fall back down.

"So… I might… could I hurt Sasuke?" Naruto questioned.

His sister shrugged.

"Don't know. I hope you don't change at all. Who knows, maybe nothing will happen; other than that you will be able to access your powers."

Her little brother walked up and hugged his sister. He felt happy that his sister told him everything, but still…

"Would you have told me everything on my birthday?"

"Yes, we kinda have to." Naruko laughed.

The siblings laughed together, played on the X-box for an hour, and then went to bed; except Naruko. She was on the phone with Hana, which was a rare occurrence, but what ruined Naruko's mood was that Hana and the rest of the Society had already known that Sasuke was a vampire. To keep her cool, she talked about the 'nasty' seen she saw earlier.

"Uh-huh, yeah, that's right. Kissed him! I know, sick right? No, no, there's no need for that. Just let them be. Remember, Kyuubi will… Wha…? Can't remember? It's Naruto's real name! Yep, yeah, my father changed it when he gave Kyuubi that seal… I don't know why he did it though; guess because he feared that Narutro wouldn't be able to control his… Our mom? You should remember, but she had red hair and blue eyes. Well, when father placed that seal… yeah, changed his hair color for some wild reason. Any way, I'll give that blood-sucker up 'til Kyuubi's birthday, then when he awakens, he'll kill Sasuke on sight. Huh? Oh, okay, talk to you later then." Naruko clicked the 'end' button on her cell phone, but wished it was the button to make Hana vanish off the face of the Earth.

Naruko was not only pissed off at herself, her brother, or the leech, she wanted to rip Hana's and Kiba's heads off. How dare they not mention such vital information of that level to her? What were they trying to do, kill her and Naruto? Also, even if they didn't tell her, how come the Society didn't notify her? Hana told her mother, so her mother should have told her—

They didn't trust her. That had to be the reason. No one wanted Naruko to know anything, no one wanted her to defend Kyuubi, and no one wanted to warn her of the danger that lurked in Konoha.

She tossed the phone across the room. It hit the floor and skidded into the wall where it stopped. Sasuke wasn't the enemy anymore; he didn't lie or hide anything from her… No, the whole Society was the true enemy.

"Well, if they want to play that way, then fine. Tomorrow… I'll tell Sasuke everything! He won't have any surprises on Naruto's birthday…" Naruko muttered aloud.

(P.O.V. Sasuke)

I pulled the car over in front of Naruto's house and put it in park. I kept on forgetting how nice his house looked, despite the neighborhood he lived in. Every house looked run down, uncared for, and about to collapse. The yards didn't look any better, weeds had grown up to hip height in some places and trash scattered all over the lawns, street, and gutters; clogging them. But Naruto's house had new siding, shutters, windows, and the porch had a pleasant porch swing. His lawn wasn't as green as a golf course, but it wasn't sun baked either; plus, it looked like it was mowed regularly.

I stepped out of the BMW (took note of the old man across the street that gave me a strange look) and nearly had a heart attack when Naruko screamed out.

"Sasuke! Naruto is upstairs getting ready, why don't you come inside?" Naruko said with a little too much enthusiasm for my tastes. I looked over my shoulder to see the pig-tailed blond hop down the stairs and cross the uneven sidewalk toward me. I sighed and closed the car door.

"Sure, why not? And while we are at it, let's go into the kitchen and bake some cookies?" I replied and rolled my eyes. I turned fully to face her. She had a pout on her face, as if to try to look insulted.

"Here I try to be nice, and all I get is a smart-ass remark…" She mumbled, but I heard her anyway.

I kept my face blank and walked past her, up the steps, and into the house. Her muffled slew of words was like white noise to me once I closed the door; and locked it. I wanted to keep her out for a while; I needed Naruto to myself for a few minutes. I had begun to walk up the stairs when a loud bang came from the window. Fearing that it could had been a brick (it was a bad neighborhood after all), I spun on my heels only to come face to face with a pissed off sister.

She was banging the window glass with one fist, and pointing at me with the other.

"Uchiha!! You will unlock that door right now! Or, or I'm…" Naruko stuttered due to her anger. I smiled, it reminded me of a tigress lunging and hissing at an electrical fence, I had begun to laugh, which only fueled her fire. "When I get inside of that house, I swear, I'm gonna rip you a new one!!"

I shook my head and proceeded to ascend to the second floor. I walked down the narrow hallway, took in the images of family pictures on the wall of Naruto when he was a baby in fluffy towels (or out of them, which I found beyond cute) or had that huge goofy smile of his before he opened his Christmas presents. That is one thing I never got to do, celebrate any holiday with a family member or even by myself. I felt like a Jehovah Witness, but, then again, I couldn't be one (I'm not religious after all). You could say I wasn't a partier.

That brought up a few questions. Was Naruto religious? What religion did he go by? This could complicate things further... I smiled, if Naruto was religious, I would become religious, if Naruto believed a certain religion, and I would join that religion. Anything for Naruto, that was my religion. I was so busy staring at the pictures; I didn't notice a door down the hallway open until I heard it click shut. I turned my head in that direction and came face-to-face with my love.

Naruto's eyes widened and he leaped up into the air. I caught him, but we fell down to the floor anyway.

"Sasuke! How long have you been here? I'm sorry to keep you waiting; I had to fix my hair." Naruto pointed to the messy excuse of 'fix', it looked more as if a bird had been nesting there.

"I just pulled up to the curb," I ran my hands up Naruto sides, he giggled and snorted.

There was a loud crash from down stairs, we both sat up straight, I pinched the bridge of my nose and groaned.

"I locked the door on your sister… do you think that she would break the door down?" I muttered.

Naruto glanced over at me and nodded.

"Yeah, if she got pissed—." Naruto started.

"When I find you, Uchiha, I'm going kill you!" Naruko screamed. Her head popped around the corner and her eyes narrowed. "I knew it! I knew it, I knew it! You locked me out so that you could molest my brother, eh?" She had begun to climb up the stairs when I bolted with Naruto in tow to the nearest room.

Once I slammed the door shut, I noticed my mistake. The walls, bed sheets, and knickknacks screamed female.

"Oh, oh now you think your gonna get freaky in my bedroom?" The door knob rattled. "Naruto! You better get your damn ass out here right now! I know you have some freaky fetishes, but fucking in my bedroom is going too far!" Even though the door was closed, she was so loud that it didn't matter. I smirked and mouthed 'what are your 'freaky' fetishes', all I got was a shrug and 'don't know, maybe because she knows I'm dating a vampire'.

"WHAT?" I screamed. "Naruto! You were supposed—."

"Keep it a secret? Ha! He didn't need to tell you!" Naruko gasped.

I spaced out for a split second, my mind spun as the questions begun to pour in. Everything from how I was going to flee, to what ability she had. It hit me then, all the answers had laid themselves before me; the strange tattoo, the 'birthmark' whiskers, the addictive taste of Naruto's blood, and the reason why Naruko didn't need my confession to know what I was. Slowly I climbed out of the mental fog to discover that Naruto was sitting in front of me with a worried look on his face. I must have slid down the door and sat against it during my shock.

"Sasuke? Are you alright?" Naruto whispered.

My hands reached up and placed themselves on his cheeks. I rubbed my thumb across those parallel markings lovingly. Naruto blinked in confusion and placed his hands over mine.

"Sasuke… please answer me, you're scaring me." He tried to scoot back, but I held him in place.

"I understand now… it makes perfect sense…" I whispered to him.

Naruto's face twisted as he tried to make out what I was saying. He stroked my hands desperately trying to get my attention.

"Sasuke…?"

"I should have known better, Uzumaki… Uzumaki…."

"Is he alright, Naruto? He doesn't sound too good…" Naruko's voice emitted from the other side of the door.

On the inside, I was laughed so hard my ribs hurt, of course I wasn't 'alright', I just learned that my partner, lover, soul mate was… definitely not human; far from it.

"Just… what are you?" I asked Naruto slowly. My eyes locked onto his, I wanted it to not be true, but something deep down inside also hoped it was true for some warped reason. "You're not human… are you?"

With his eyes downcast, Naruto nodded.

"Naruko told me yesterday after you dropped me off… I'm a werefox. My whole family is… and Kiba's and Shikamaru's family are werewolves."

I smiled and pecked Naruto's cheek with my lips.

"I knew Kiba and Shikamaru were werewolves, but they are just pups, they can't bring me down easily. But what is not adding up is how come I never knew from before…" I said.

I heard Naruko walk off to somewhere else in the house, seemingly she gave up on trying getting us out of her bedroom.

(P.O.V. Naruto)

Sasuke nodded his head. He sat in Naruko's computer chair facing me and listened to the story Naruko told me the other day. I'm glad he took it so well, though he too was of the supernatural, I guess it wouldn't have bothered me either if I was in shoes… or boots in the present case.

He looked more dangerous today than usual. Dark platform boots, baggy shorts that hung low on his hips and ended a little above the knees, and a tee with the logo 'Kiss My Ass' printed in big, bold letters across the front. His face was just as dark, mascara, eye shadow, gray lip stick, and a choker that had a gothic cross as the center piece (and he was decked with his studs).

"So, your father placed this 'seal' on you to keep your powers 'at bay'?" Sasuke said.

"Yeah, no one really knows why he did that, well, that is what my sister told me anyway… you know, I'm kinda worried about my birthday now.... What if my personality really does change and I hurt you?" I said, depressed. I loved Sasuke… every fiber of my being, soul, mind, every little thought phrase, emotion… it all was surrounded with Sasuke. If he gotten hurt or died, I wouldn't have known what to do.

Sasuke shrugged.

"I'm only just a little over three hundred years old; I wouldn't be able to put up much of a fight if something bad happens. My only real chance of survival is to hope you remember that I'm your mate."

I nodded in agreement. Even though I really didn't understand how age mattered in strength, Sasuke seemed to be a little concerned for his wellbeing. I was too, for the both of us. Sis said that when I transform, it might goof because of the years that my body hadn't grown out to the proper size. I was suppose to be around six feet tall, so that my body didn't go through too much stress as it changed, but I was only 5. 3 and that was bad news for any being that shape shifted; unless you were a shape-shifter, but that was a different story.

"Boys," My sister said as she walked into the room with a box full of papers. "I don't want to break up this little meeting, but I have to grade papers before this evening. Plus, it is almost one o' clock; the arcade closes up at nine."

Naruko giggled when I jumped off the bed and nearly fell to the floor.

"C'mon Sasuke, it will take us at least twenty minutes to get there from my house!" I yelled when I grasped his wrist.

"I know that, Naruto," Sasuke chuckled. "It takes even longer to get there from that graveyard."

I blushed when the memory of yesterday poured back into my mind, but I quickly brushed that off. If we got to the arcade before two, we could have free snacks like Lays or even pizza. I dragged Sasuke out of Naruko's room.

"You boys have fun, oh, and I want you to be back before ten!" Naruko called out to me.

"Yeah yeah, I hear ya!" I yelled back. Bubbles of joy rose up to my throat and I laughed. "This time, I won't come home with foreign shirts!" Sasuke chuckled; I supposed he remembered yesterday too.

Once I locked up the house, Sasuke and I drove toward the local arcade. If I had known what would have happened when we showed up, I would have suggested otherwise.

Notes: OMG! I've updated once more! I've also noticed that I have been updating later and later. I think it is just because of two things: one, I'm lazy, and two, I'm just not interested in typing up anything. I am really glad for the reviews, THANK YOU; it was a lot of work, time, and dedication for me to type this chapter up. Please continue to review, the more, the better! Oh, and yeah, I love cliff-hangers, don't you? *evil smirk*.
