A/N: Hey y'all! Welcome to the next chappie of Crimson Tears. Hopefully y'all are enjoying it still along with its progression.
Before we get to the chappie itself there are a few things I need to speak about. Here they are in a neat and orderly stream of consciousness. Hehes
So, I received two guest reviews on fanfiction on this story from the previous chappie. The first said I don't accept criticism. How the hell is that possible? I accept it just fine. The reason why I don't allow any guest reviews through is because that's how I was bullied and harassed. So, as a precautionary method no guest reviews are allowed through no matter what's said.
Indeed I'm still working on the self-esteem/confidence/worth issues. It just takes time I suppose. Writing is how I self-medicate for anxiety aside from it being my passion, hobby, and make it my job.
So, now, that's all I wanted to discuss with y'all before starting up this chappie. I hope y'all enjoy what happens this time. Please remember to favorite, follow, vote, etc. along with leaving some nice reviews. Your feedback is always appreciated.
Chapter 11: Zenith
On the evening of the eve is when things are moving into full swing between the packs and covens. The other kinds within this world don't participate in the festivities when it comes to the blood moon. Those who do are only the undead and shifters. Sea creatures and the like don't join in. Thanks to the treaty it allows the two to converge for the said eve where both can enjoy things they progress. On such a night is when bonds are forged to become stronger, others are granted blessings from various deities, along with other occurrences depending on the person. There are a few new additions that are participating in the festivities. Those would be the princes mates. None of them have experienced this strange phenomenon before. What they have heard is rumors about it. Experiencing it first hand will indeed be a rare treat.
"So, what happens during this time?" Naruto asked his partner curiously, knowing this is a special time for them and the packs.
"Well, sometimes people can be blessed or cursed by a deity," Sasuke began to explain, snaking an arm around his mate to hold him close against his side. "Others can forge stronger bonds with their mate while others can even become stronger creatures by standing in the scarlet light."
"Does anything bad happen?" Naruto asked suspiciously, thinking this seemed too good to be true, knowing all things come with a price.
"Well, there is the chance that we might be greeted by the Demon King," admitted the Uchiha, hearing a tinge of apprehension in his voice, wondering what could be so bad about the person having such a high allocation. "It doesn't foretell anything good if he shows up."
"Oh," frowned Naruto, taking this all in, appreciating the fact that Sasuke felt ok enough to divulge such information to him.
"You're welcome," Sasuke's lips twitched slightly in the form of a faint ghost of a smile, wanting to make sure Naruto is informed, figuring that his brother would do the same for his own mate.
What Sasuke hoped is that they would be receiving some news from having sex in a few days time. He figured it would need time to ensure things take full affect. What he does worry is how Naruto will react when the moon happens. Sometimes the rays of it during this time can cause people to act differently than normal. It's rumored that it shows people's true selves if they're not of the undead nature. It made sense to him obviously. Although that's merely because he has experienced a few of them thus far. So, he knows what to expect. From the looks of things Naruto doesn't seem concerned about it. Leaning against the Uchiha the kitsune seemed deep in thought for some reason. Nudging him gently at the side seemed to cause Naruto to be shaken out of his thoughts.
"Huh? Oh, um, sorry," blushed Naruto, not noticing that he had drifted off for a few moments without realizing it.
"That's alright," reassured Sasuke, continuing on their way to see how things are coming along to eventually meet up with his brother and Deidara after a sufficient amount of time has passed, noticing that the neko seemed nervous about something.
"What's wrong?" Asked Naruto in concern of noticing this, wondering if maybe it's about something coming up quick.
"Um, it's about my ex," admitted Deidara, giving Itachi a look who remained impassive, raising a brow as he hadn't heard about it.
"Oh? Is Sasori being an ass again?" Demanded Naruto to know, narrowing his eyes slightly, knowing about what transpired between him and the redhead.
"Well, I didn't know this back then, but apparently he's someone high up in the ranks, hmph. I don't know what he is. All I know is I received a weird message last midday saying that I would be seeing him soon, un," frowned Deidara, displeased of having to be thinking of someone from his past that he had loved and lost, knowing that Sasori is forever out of his reach, hoping that the Puppeteer isn't after having him back in his life after all of this time.
"Weird," shrugged Naruto, not sure what to make of it either. "Well, you have us by your sides. You'll be ok, bro."
"I hope so, hmph," Deidara still seemed worried although appeared to have eased to a certain amount by their reassurance, feeling itachi wrap an arm around him.
Whispering in his ear, Deidara shivered slightly, "We'll talk about this later."
"Ok, un," mewed Deidara, knowing that it would be a heated discussion indeed whenever they spoke about things, having not wanted to bring up the past although it seemed to haunt everyone no matter what they did to shake it off.
"So, when are things supposed to start?" Naruto poked Sasuke, wanting to know.
"Sometime at midnight is when it's supposed to happen," answered his partner, scowling lightly at being poked from the fox, giving him a light warning glare.
Pouting, Naruto stopped for now. The only reason he had done it had been to gain his attention. Figuring it best to not annoy him Naruto continued to walk with him around to survey the scenery of everything set up. It seemed to be a big deal amongst the covens and packs. It made him wonder what it could symbolize. Maybe it's just something for the undead and shifters to celebrate considering for wolves it helps them shift for the first time along with what they howl their song to. For vampires the blonde didn't know what purposes it could possibly have for them.
"It helps strengthen us to grow more powerful," answered Sasuke, figuring as to what Naruto wanted an answer to, knowing he could supply a good amount of them, hoping to satisfy his partner's curiosity.
"Oh?" Naruto raised a brow, guessing that made sense, getting a glass to give to Sasuke which is filled with Type A+ blood.
"Thanks," it made Sasuke give a small smile of appreciation, sipping at it before downing the glass, putting it down when he's finished, knowing soon enough he would be able to turn Naruto to make him just like himself although it'd probably be different considering of Naruto's DNA, hoping that no complications would arise during the process.
"You all have joined us for this joyous time," announced Madara, one of the Elders, having to give a few words much later on before the phenomenon with the moon would occur to descend its crimson rays onto the lands. "We all appreciate the covens that have joined with our own including the packs to participate in this. Tonight we will grow stronger not just as individuals, but as a family."
When Madara finished his speech there's a roar of applause along with cheering. When that died down everyone began to continue their activities. A few moments later is when it happened. The moon changed from its usual white complexion to a dark ruby color. With its rays descending onto the lands it touched each individual that's not covered by being inside or anything else. When creatures are touched by such a divine light they are given strength to where they feel as if brand new. For the wolves, Kakashi let loose a howl before being joined in by the others in their song. Before this night, he had managed to turn Obito to the pack side. So, he too joined him in the howl.
All seemed to be going so well. What they hadn't expected is for someone to rise from the underground, deep inside of the Underworld. Who rose is the Demon King himself. This is normal for when the blood moon occurs is when he's more likely to be seen out in the open. Dressed in a variety of black and purple robes the redheaded male smirked impishly at the scene before him. Almond chocolate hazel eyes glanced around to take in the sights. Obviously he had seen Deidara. Atop the demon's head are a pair of horns while he has various markings on his pale body. His form has an ample amount of muscle on it. Who he's accompanied by is his partner. That would be a certain silver haired Jashinist. The other male is dressed in no shirt although the rest of his attire is in shades of obsidian and velvet. With his scythe strapped on his back along with his other tools hidden on his person, Hidan felt more than ready to rake in some new sacrifices for the one who he worships with all of his body, mind, heart, and soul.
"Well, well, well, look what we have here…. It feels so nice to be back on the surface. Oh and hello there Deidara…..it's been a while, hasn't it? Have you missed me? Maybe not considering you moved on. We'll change that in due time."
