Sinsue yelped as she felt Larva touch her arm and it started burning really bad. She leaned against Viper some not liking the feeling. She then looked up at Larva and nodded some to what he said looking at the new little circle on the top of her arm. She had a bad feeling that this would not last as long as the male said but she said nothing about it taking him at his word for now.

Larva smiled as he nodded towards Dracula's direction and walked away. "Now that that is settled, Meier, there are still a few matters to talk about." He said pointing down to the floor and Viper didn't understand what he ment but as they walked away her mother kissed her forehead and slipped something into her hand. When she walked away Viper looked down to see a locket with a piece of paper inside and a picture of a young man, he looked to be in his 20's but Viper didn't know. The note said not to read for a few months so if her mother gave it to her and it said this it was seirous. She tucked the note into her pocket and slipped the locket around her neck and turned to Sinsue. "Now that is over, lets go and have alittle fun...plus I want to go see Hidan as well." She added with a small blush.
__________________________________________________ _________________________________________
It's been one year now and Sinsue's mark is still holding up good. the dragon sleeps and the pain has never returned. Right now the two girls train deep in the forest fighting and both out of breath. Viper stood at a five foot 3 inches, she was starting to become a fan of shorter shirts not completely belly tops but shorter ones that shows some of her skin but not alot. Her pants she wore at this time were to her knees and covering her feet were her normal sandals. Her hair had grown in inches and color, well kinda. It was still her normal black but a bit ago she added one red, and one blue strike along with it. She called them her way of telling the differecne btween her and her sisters when they were all together. She she and Sisnue contiuned to fight she finally got a good shot on pins her best friends shirt to a tree. "Ha! I win Sinsue!! Kisame was right about aiming higher!!" She said jumping up and down happily. "Can't wait to tell him that I finally pinned you!"

Sinsue had spent most of this last year training not just with her brothers but also her best friend and was now stronger, faster, and more determend then ever before. It had been about a month since K.K. could get a good and fair pin on her so she was pretty sure that soon enough she would pin her... and she was right. As they fought she was starting to wear out as did K.K., but the other had more stamina then Sinsue herself. She felt the sword brush past her cheek then felt herself jerk back into the tree. She panted softly though grinned at her best friend some. "Nice match." she smiled some then moved and pulled out the sword from her shirt and handed it back to her best friend. She sat down catching her breath a bit and looking up at the sky. "Hey K.K.? Is it just me or do you see also see that thing in the sky... that's not a bird I don't think." Sinsue frowned some as she looked up at the large shadow that she could see flying around right out of clear sight though above hers and her best friends training grounds.

K.K. nodded her head as she looked up,"Its been there for a bit now and I don't like it either. Lets go see if we can find it." And with her sword in hand K.K. walked off into the woods. The forest was dark and alittle scary but because of living here for a long time now in this area she was very use to it and nothing bothered her anymore. They walked for a bit until the figure from the sky was now close to them covered in the shadows making it hard to see its features as they walked closer and K.K. held up her sword for protection.

The figure opened it's deep crimson eyes and that's when Sinsue froze up and stared at it with almost a dead look set in her fetures and her hands shook some as she gripped onto her sword tightly. The figure smirked and it's wings spread out behind it making it look a bit bigger then it was.... though the figure was quite tall and clearly lean and strong just from a glance you could see that without seeing any details at all. "Well hello Viper.... I see you found my daughter have you?" the male smirked darkly his eyes still glowing but him not coming into full veiw. Sinsue shivered and backed away some without thinking at all. "Now, if you don't mind I would like to have a word... alone with her." he said a bit darkly and Sinsue shook a bit turning and trying to leave but a force feild stopped her in her tracks and repelled her a few feet making her land flat on her back.

"Sinsue! Oh, I don't know who you are but your going to regret that." She said as her eyes glowed with anger as she ran forward trying to land a hit on the male which she did when she smelled his blood. "If you don't want to die leave now and leave us alone!" Her voice echo with anger clearly in it. Her true vampire self was starting to show and it clearly wasn't happy at all.

The male smirked some not even seeming to feel the cut to his side though he was bleeding some. He smirked some grabbing Viper's wrist and making her let go of her sword before pulling her close and grabbing her other wrist holding both away from her so she couldn't hit him. "You should have just let me speak to her, now you're stuck too." he smirked as his wings wrapped around both of them and she started to let his dark powers take hold of the young girl gripping at her wrost nightmares and preparing himself for the scream he knew she would utter.

Viper gasped and tried to fight him off but when she saw what she dreaded she screamed but didn't pass out right away. She pressed her face into the males chest and uttered,"Please...make it stop." And when the last word passed her lips she went limp, her head still leaned against the male.

Sain smirked some not caring at all as he rapped one arm around the girl to keep her from falling to the ground. He laid her down on the ground then looked to his daughter who now had wide eyes from hearing her best friend scream and was scare for herself. She got up and was thinking about trying to run but knew that there was nowhere to run and no way to hide or get away... or help her best friend whom seemed to almost be in pain from something... but she had no wounds at all... did she?

"Viper will be fine, she'll be scared to sleep for a bit but she will be fine. Now as for you, you need to take a little nap fo a well but don't worry I'm sure Viper will bring you back soon." As he said that he pulled out a small dagger and started walking forward close to Sinsue until he had one of his arms around her stomach and arms making sure she couldn't fight him. "It will only hurt fo a moment my daughter." And as he said that he stabbed her into her chest just a few inches away from her heart.

Sinsue tried to turn before she got stabbed but that little though didn't work as she felt her fathers arm come around her then the dagger going into her chest. She let out a scream and tried to struggle but it only made her pain even worse. As she bled out she could also feel a snapping in her arm which made her cry out more as she felt the pain slowly moving across her shoulders. "Why?" she whimpered as she felt herself bleeding out heavily and was already feeling tired and weak. Flashes of her first death flashed through her mind which made tears come to her eyes and spill over some.

Sain bent down close to her and kissed her forehead,"You will thank me for this later in the years." He placed his hand on the side of her head but before he could move a sharp pain came thourgh his body and when he looked down a sword had pierced him. "You truly are Meier's daughter." But before Viper culd say anything Sain was gone. She dropped her sword and went to Sinsue only to be shocked to see her ghost next to her. "Don't worry Sinsue, I'll bring you back." Viper placed her hands ontop of the wound and healed it then the sphere came around her and the light and the next thing that happened was Sinsue'sbreathing. "Sinsue...Sinsue, are you ok? Can you talk?" She asked then added,"I called my father, he'll be here shortly."

Sinsue opened her eyes coughing slightly though something then happened and she soon fell limp again her eyes shaded and her spirit appeared once more but now was passed out laying next her her best friend leaning her head against her some though not much. Her spirit form showed that of her body for blood was still going down her chin from her mouth some but the wound to her chest was gone. She hadn't really understood what her father had said or why he had killed her in the first place but now her mind was blank for the moment and her spirit warm which was odd... she was an ice demon, it wasn't good for her body or even her spirit to be at a normally body temp.

"Sinsue!" When she feel down again, Meier and Dracula appeared all shocked by the scence that layed before
them. "Viper what happened?" Meier asked as he layed his hand onto her shoulder then gasped some when he relized the scent that his daughter was covered in. "Sain was here." He said standing up and pulling Viper with him even though she wanted to stay at Sinsue's side. Meier knew this and forcefully some picked her up off the ground to where he had more control over her actions. Dracula in returned picked up Sinsue's lifeless body as Meier said to Viper,"You must not fight me right now Viper, we will talk more when we get home for now rest some and when we get home I will reverse what Sain did to your dreams as well." Viper nodded her head and she wrapped her arms around her father's neck and leaned her head onto his shoulder forcing herself to stay awake. When they finally walked though the doors Viper sat up alittle in her father's arms still feeling weak and very tired but when she looked over at Sinsue's body she wimpered. Meier herd this and as her grandfather walked one way Meier went another keeping a tight grip on his daughter. She tried to get out but locked his arm around her alittle more thne said,"Calm darling. You will be in the same room as Sinsue in a moment."

Viper nodded upset but had to obey. When he finally put her down they were in a small room away from where Viper could smell Sinsue. "This will only take a minute." he said leaning his hand against her head gently and what she herd was a small sound, it almost reminded her of bubble gum popping but when it went awat she could tell that the nightmares would stay away. "Is that better?" He asked as she fall alittle forward only to be caught by her father's arms. She leaned against his chest and sighed,"Yes...it's better. Thank you papa." Meier smiled as he leaned his head against hers but his mind was thinking so any more things like how to find Sain and have alittle talk with him over this since he knew why he killed his daughter. "When I brought Sinsue back...she died again." "I know, the dagger that Sain used makes it impossible for maybe a day or two to bring the person it was stabbed with come back easily. We may have to wait for sometime before we could try again." Viper sighed but understood the situation as she stood and looked at her father wanting to know if it was alright to leave the room and to go to Sinsue. He nodded his head and just like that she was gone in a flash. When she got to the room her grandfather was sitting down next to the bed and her mother made sure Sinsue's body wasn't damaged. "For some reason she's runnign a high fever." Chaolette said softly. "So is her spirit." Viper added. Chaoletee looked up and was alittle shocked but nodded her head as she covered her forehead with a cold wash rag and a few bags of ice as well. "She'll be fine we just need to cool her off alittle." Viper nodded then said,"Could dad maybe do it?" "Maybe but lets wait to see what happens before we start to depend on your fathers powers." Viper nodded as she sat next to her grandfather on the floor and leaned her head against his leg. He rubbed her head some and smiled gently.

Sinsue's spirit stayed with her body this time though was not bound to it as most spirits would be... it almost felt like she was bound to her best friend but could move away also. Showdove was still on her arm and she could tell that she was sweating horrably but couldn't speak to tell K.K. what was wrong. Instead she walked over and tapped her foulder to get her full attention before pointing at her upper arm with worry clear on her face that actually seemed to have color to it. Thanks to the fact that she was an ice demon her body generated heat when she was dead or sick instead of growing cold like most bodies and spirits would.

Sain was now keeping a close eye on his daughter though thanks to his powers no one would be able to sense him, not even an anciant like Dracula. He wasn't worried about his daughter, nor did he regret killing her or hurting Viper, he actually quite enjoyed it. He didn't care about many people but his other daughter and sometimes his son... but not often his son, his son was more focused on protecting his sister and her friend more then helping his father.

"Upper arm...the seal?" Viper got up and pulled up her sleeve to see that the seal was broken. "Um, Grandfather?" Dracula came over and sighed,"It broke when she died. Thats not good, Larva wouldn't be abel to put another one on her because she isn't alive at the moment." Viper nodded some but started holding her head. "Are you alright Viper?" "Y-yes, I'm just really tired still from what Sain did." Dracula nodded as he put one of his arms around her alowing her to lean against him some. "You should rest for a bit, when you wake up again Sinsue will still be there." Viper nodded and just like that passed out from begin so tired. Dracula caught her and and a small nod towards Charoletee left to put Viper to bed for the day. The next time Viper woke up she was laying comfortable in her Grandfather's coffin with a thick blanket around her. she pushed the blanket off and pushed the lid open to see that all the lights in the room where off and it was pitch black which she wasn't to shocking at all. When she left the room the light irrated her eyes alittle but they soon ajusted and with that she went to where Sinsue's body was. When she enterd she herd a small squecking sound and remembered about SnowDove. "Oh No!" She ran over and pulled Snowdove out and held her closely. "Snowdove?" She asked in a soft voice.

Snowdove whimpered quietly as she felt herself being pulled from her owners arm though didn't freak since she knew who was holding her. Her whole form was covered in warm sweat and she was panting softly and quietly seeming quite weak now. She looked up at Viper and whined weakly then whimpered a bit and closed her eyes weakly and tired. "H-h-hot." she whimpered in a quiet and weak voice just curled in Vipers arms and trying to relax which was very hard right now concidering her condition.

Sinsue watched this worriedly and tapped her best friends shoulder. "She's over heated... she's too weak." she whimpered quietly and it was clear it was hard for her to talk at all though she had finally figured out how to at least a little bit. She was worried the little dragon would die from how warm she was and you could see that her outer laring of protection was gone and that her weak scales and feathers were showing in full veiw.

"Don't worry." Viper said as she ran from the room to find her father that was thankfully close by. Viper couldn't stop intime and ended up running into him but he caught her just in time before she fell to the ground. "What's wrong Viper?" He asked helping her stand now. "S-snowDove is burning up...can you cool her off?" She asked holding up the sickly dragon to her father alittle. He nodded his head and gently toke the dragon making what looked like a floating ice crystal in the air with her inside it. It was only a few moments later till it shattered revealing a much happier SnowDove. Viper smiled and hugged her dad,"Thanks." She said and he rubbed her head,"Your welcome, SnowDove, why don't you stay with me until Sinsue is back so you don't over heat again." He said holding out his hand to her. When he did though Viper saw what looked like two little golden eyes from the inside of his sleeve and gasped but when Snowdove landed on his hand he smiled down at his daughter and walked away.

Snowdove seemed happy now that she was cool and her scales slowly started to reform before she landed softly in Meier's hand. She saw the eyes and looked curiously at them though stayed where she was and just curled up easily in his hand. "What was that?" Sinsue asked curiously to K.K. having seen the eyes and wondered some what they were to since she hadn't noticed them before.

" don't know...it could have been a dtragon but not to many of us in the clan have one." She said as she followed her dad alittle to his room, the door wasn't closed all the way as she got down onto the floor and looked in. Her father was sitting Snowdove down on the table that was next to his coffin and when he pulled up his sleeve said a dark blue dragon, longer and bigber then Snowdove but meaner looking as well. Meier said something to it in a different languge but Viper couldn't understand. She watched to see what the dragon did and it simply curled around Snowdove and rested its head ontop of hers, the dragon was raditating cold air from its body. even Viper could feel it. She gasped alittle and thats all her father needed to walk over to the door and open it making Viper fall back. "What are you doing down there?" He asked leaning agaisnt the door frame grinning. Viper smiled alittle then said,"well...I wanted to know what those eyes were that were in your sleeve and now I know." She said pointing towards the dragons on the table. Meier sighed then whispered,"Don't tell your mother it needs to stay a secert alittle longer." Viper giggled nodding her head as she got up and ran to her mother who was in the library,"Mama, what are you reading?" She asked walking over and getting down on her knees laying her arms in her mothers lap aling with her head.

Sinsue was shocked at how Snowdove didn't pull away from the bigger dragon and instead curled into him falling asleep quickly to how cold he was. She watched meier come to the door and took a step back even though she knew he couldn't see her. She then fallowed her best friend to the library and instead of fallowing her to her mother she wandered around looking at books and you could every now and again hear a little noise but it was unclear what it was since no one could really hear Sinsue past Viper.

"Ow it's really nothing, just one of my favorite books is all." Chaolette said with a smile as she sat the book down with the book mark in it before placing her hand on her daughters head. "What are you up to my dear?" she asked with a smile then heard another noise and looked around curiously though saw no one else in the room. "Do you know where that sound is coming from?" she asked Viper softly as she continued to hear the sound though couldn't figure out what it was not knowing that it was Sinsue looking around.

"Sinsue is just looking at the books." She said with a smile as she pressed her head alittle more into her mother's hand enjoying the feel of it. "Mama, how come I have never met my grandma and grandpa on your side of the family?' She asked looking up at her mother now resting her forehead little against her stomach.

Charolette sighed softly as she closed her eyes and leaned her head back some thinking a bit then looked down at her daughter again. "They died a long long time ago sweety... they weren't vampires, they were Uchiha's... they were human." she said softly and sadly as she ran her hand through her daughters hair again waiting to see what she had to say about that.

"Uchiha's? But that's Sinsue's last name to mama." She sounded shock and she was because she knew that her mother was changed a some time ago by her father but she never knew her last name other then Hoshigo. "Mama, i've been to the Uchiha village, i saw the ghosts of all the dead...why were they killed?" She hoped by asking this it didn't upset her mother in anyway.

"I'm not sure honey.... I know one part of it was Itachi Uchiha, but there was also a great beast that killed most of the clan... but my parents were long gone before that. Ow, and I'm not too shocked, she looks like a Uchiha." Charolette said softly then smiled at the end softly since she had had a feeling that was the case.
