Raven Blossom series: Midnight Blossom

Nightmares

Ino

She walked along a surprisingly abandoned road. Usually cars of all kind would be driving along but not tonight. How did it even become night so fast? She thought to herself as she looked around searching for anything to show her that she isn't alone. Pine trees stood on each side of the road looking dark and intimidating. Off to her right she could hear a whisper but when she turned her head all she saw was the dark abandoned stretch of road. To her left and right the road was quiet but still she could faintly hear a voice whispering something she could understand. "He...Hello?" She called hoping for an answer of some kind but silence only replide with the hoot of an owl off in the woods.

Brushing some of her blond hair out of her face she took a few steps down the road when a blood chilling scream echoed from the trees. She froze, it wasn't clear to her what happened next. She remembered standing there and next thing she knew she was tearing threw the dark trees and bushes toward the scream. The scream echoed again and again. She pushed herself to run faster toward the sound knowing that someone may be in danger. "I'm coming!" She screamed. She continued to run until she busted into a clearing, it was just a complete circle in the middle of the forest. Spinning around her head began to spin and she was breathing heavily. The scream sounded again this time she didn't need to run or yell to try to find the source and it was not what she expected.

Just a few feet in front of her sat two people. One sat on their knees cradling someone in their arms, the one being held didn't seem to be moving. She took a step forward, then another and another until she stood over them. The person who screamed looked up, her pale blue eyes and platinum blond hair was matted with mud and what looked like blood. Tears were streaming down her face as was blood that seemed to be freely flowing from her bottom lip. "He....he's been killed. They all have." The girl sobbed. Ino looked around. A chill arched up her spine at the sight of at least a dozen bodies laying around the clearing. Some were mutilated to the point she couldn't even begin to tell who they were and some just laid there, not a spot of blood seemed to be on them. She looked back at the girl, the man she was cradling had his hear up which made it look as if it were a pineapple stalk. His face was covered with dark red blood thanks to the large and deep gash on his forehead. She choked back a sob as she finally put the pieces together. The man was Shikamaru but what had happened to him. Again she looked around, she started to see that the bodies she could make out were those of her friends. Laying behind her was her pink haired best friend who seemed to have had her legs broken before being blugened over the head with a large object that crushed her skull.

Shakily she glanced back at the girl only to realize she had been staring into a mirror. She had caused all this death. As if it could read her mind the other Ino smiled and shook her head, "In a way yeah we caused it. Heck we did it. We ripped out Shikamaru's heart. We broke Sakura's legs. WE killed each one of our friends in every way imaginable." The other Ino grew quiet before finishing, "We destroyed everything we love, like we always do." Tears started to well up in her eyes until they spilled down her pale cheeks. She had done this, she had killed all her friends. Dropping to her knees she cried. "Why?" She sobbed. "Why would I do this!?"
The other Ino smiled, "Because its just so damn fun." Then she jumped at Ino who raised her arms to try to defend herself that's when she gasped and sat up in her hospital bed. She had a thin line of sweat beads on her forehead. "You ok? You look like you've had a nightmare." Came Shikmaru's voice from her bedside. Looking over once she saw him she wrapped him into a tight embrace causing him to groan. "Dang you ok?" He struggled to ask. She pulled back and kissed him, pulling back she said, "I'm better now."

Sasuke

It'd be easy, he could avoid all of the up coming pain by taking his life but then he thought of all the people he would hurt. Sakura would be crushed, his shares of the company would be up for grabs. His family wouldn't be whole. Sasuke Uchiha has only thought of taking his life once before.

*Flashback*

A fourteen year old Sasuke sat in detention with three other students. One had short choppy silver hair but what I noticed was his bright purple eyes. The other two were trouble makers who always got in trouble. I had detention today only because I went off on the guidance counselor when she asked questions about my older brother Itachi . A lot of things were happening, my father would beat me. My older brother was bearly around and my mother was hurting. My family has a long depressing history. After detention I walked home slowly, that's when I talked to you for the first time.

Suigetsu walked alongside me smiling away as if he had heard a funny joke that I didn't catch. I said nothing and hardly spared him a glance but he didn't seem to care, he still walked with me. That was the day I had decided I couldn't take it anymore and over the weeks leading to it I made sure to leave everything in its proper place. Suigetsu left me alone then hours later I sat in the back yard, the knife sat in my hand. The blade was aimed at my wrist then outta the blue came his voice. "Dude. Taking your life isn't the way to go. If you need someone to talk to then please talk to me." After that Suigetsu and I became friends then we met Jugo who Suigetsu saved and finally we met Karin, surprisingly enough he managed to save us all and in the end he's the first to die.

*End Flashback*

My hands trembled as I stared at the old note I had written for my family to find. Each line made me shake more. "Babe?" Came Sakuras voice from the door to my room. She came walking over and glanced at the paper in my hand. I should have moved it but I was frozen. This pain, these words; deep down I feared that they may still be true. She said nothing at first only wrapped me in a large crushing hug, pulling back she said, "Baby if you ever need to talk I'm here for you. Always." Then she kissed me. "Now lets watch those movies." She mumbled as I smirked, crumbled up the paper and threw it away.
