THE VAMPIRE PRINCE AND THE MOON PRINCESS

ENGAGED TO DARKNESS

As they exit the chambers, Itachi was waiting for them with a smirk on his face. "What is it now Itachi?!" Sasuke asked him irritated. "Nothing at all little brother, are you ready for tonight? Or should I say are you both ready to see your betroth?" Itachi asked with a smirk. "Itachiiiiii!! I am not in the mood for this today." Sasuke replied. Both Itachi and Naruto start to laugh at him. Mother got both of you a tax for the ball tonight Silvia brought it to your rooms along with a gift for your future brides." Itachi told him laughing. The three walked to the game room. "Hey Itachi, how's Izumi?" Sasuke asked, "uh? Wait something wrong with her?" Naruto asked in alarm. Itachi laugh "Naruto no harm is upon her she's pregnant, and it's difficult for her" Itachi replied. "Oh, so how far along is she? Will she be able to attend the ball tonight?" Naruto asked with concern. "I would love her to attend, especially with Konan being there, but I can't let her be there in her condition" Itachi replied. "Wait Konan? Who's Konan?" Sasuke asked Itachi as they enter the game room. "The Moon king's rebellious daughter, the two of us originally had to be wed, but she was in love with someone else and defied the king and broke off the engagement by giving herself away to a demon" Itachi said. "WHAT! Well that's an odd union" Naruto said as he dropped on the sofa and put the PlayStation on. The three continue to conversate and pay games for hours until it was time to get ready.

Sakura stood on her balcony looking at the early arrivals, it was strange for her, she always use to sit on her balcony edge and watch all the breath taken people with the different gowns, she was fascinated seeing it, even she and Hinata sneak to see how it was until she was caught by Neji and now we get to attend for the first time and being engaged not to the man that I love but engaged to darkness. Sighing deeply Sakura began to sing one of her favorite songs (in the name of love by nightcore)

Sasuke finish his shower and dried off and went to the bed where the suit was placed neatly on the bed along with a pair of black shoes sighing deeply, he quickly got dressed, then there was a gentle knock on the door. but Sasuke already knew who it was. Enter mother" he said. Mikoto entered Sasuke room with an elegant off the shoulders fit and flare long crimson red dress, with glass clear 5" heels make up prefect to match and her hair braid and pin up with a red and silver crown. "Wow mother! I believe you will steal the show today" Sasuke said a chuckle. She smiled I know right, your mother cleans up nicely doesn't she" Mikoto answered while fixing his tie. "Son I am very proud of you, and I know this is going to be difficult but no matter what I am here for you, I just want you to know that." Mikoto told him as she gently touches his face. "I know mother and thank you for everything, but it is time I take care of you now." Sasuke replied kissing her gently on her cheek. Merci Mon Fils (thank you my son). Now it is time to go my son, come, let us go join the others." Mikoto said hooking her arms to Sasuke as they both exit his room on to the hallway and down the stairs.

Tamaki entered Sakura's room to find her singing onto the balcony, her heart ached to see her sister like this, but she knows that she couldn't do much to help her, it was time Sakura stood up for herself now. "Sakura! It's time to get ready, and why are you outside the balcony with just a robe on, you know the guess can see you right?" Tamaki told her "wow Taki you look great! Tamaki choose to go simple tube flared rimstone and glitter gown blue and silver to represent the moon kingdom. "Nah I am simple compare to what you have to wear and Hinata have to wear it's you'll night after all." Tamaki said with a smirk. "Takiiiiii!!! What did you do?" Sakura asked afraid to even look at the dress. "Nothing to special and come let me do your hair and makeup quickly so you can put on the dress" Tamaki responded. Feeling a little uneasy Sakura sat in down on the chair in front her special made pink layout dresser and waited for Tamaki to come style hair and put on her make up. Sakura was never one for make up and doll up stuff, but, because today was a special day she would allow it. Tamaki quickly made use of the curl iron turning Sakura straight long hair into waves of pink curls, and placed a rim of Cherry blossom and silver and blue gems in Sakura's hair to enhance the style, her makeup was simple and representative: it was bluish-silver and a touch of green to compliment Sakura's eyes, blackeye liner, eyebrow done to perfection and rose petal lip gloss and a few rimstone to complete the design. After Tamaki was done she turn Sakura around to see her self in the mirror. "Omg is that me! it can't be me! wow Taki you did a great job on me, I almost look like a princess" Sakura said laughing. "Wait for the finishing touch which is the dress." Tamaki replied taking the dress out of the concealed bag. Just then there was a light knock on Sakura's door. Sakura is it okay to come in?" Hinata asked. "Yes Hinata you can" as Hinata walked in Sakura's breathe caught. "OMG! Hinata you look breath taking, wow I don't think I can out stage you tonight" Sakura said in playful tone. "yo-you really think so Sakura-san?" Hinata aske shily. Hinata was wearing a purple and lilac lace and tullet off the shoulder grown with glitter and what look like drops of water and petals top layer of the dress and it also run on the base of the dress which swept the floor, although she was wearing 6 inch custom made glass slippers you couldn't see them until she lift the dress to walk. Her hair and makeup were just as lovely as mine complimentary to Tamaki no doubt. "Your father seems to be getting impatient downstairs waiting on the Uchiha's to arrive." Hinata said" gently sitting on Sakura's bed "You mean there's not here yet!" Tamaki said in alarm. Hinata shook her head in response.

"No worries they will be there, another voice calm booming from the doorway, it was Takuma. "Wow Sakura you look beautiful, you going to have a lot of single guys out there hurting tonight" Takuma said with laugh. "Takuma out! Go back out and let us know when they arrived." Tamaki told him pushing him out the room and closing the door behind him. "Now where were we, ah yes, the dress" Tamaki said as she took the gown out black bag and unzipping it. giving the gown to Sakura to put on. Sakura gently put on the gown and was zipped up by Tamaki. Gasping sharply Sakura face turn red in color. "Tamaki I can't wear this! why did you pick this dress of all dresses? This dress is way to revealing, I can't wear this." sakura told Tamaki feeling embarrassed. Listen Sakura you suppose to be the center piece for once in your life and take pride in your self as an adult now, this dress represents coming into womanhood and wearing it proudly. Now stop your fussing and represent this dress. It's time to show us sisters that you fit for this crown, plus don't you want to see your soon to be husband mouth drop to the floor along with your other sisters?" Tamaki told her with a smirk. "She's right Sakura-san you have to stand for yourself sometimes." Hinata told her. sighing deeply Sakura accepted defeat and decided it was only one night so she will do as they say .. Sakura's dress was a : full zipped elbow length sleeve, see through lace fit and flare covered with Blue, silver and green rimstone, gem and glitter covering the chest area her back was see through with petal and moon symbol going down the back with more glitter, rimstone and gems to cover the front and back of the private area and then more waves of blue silver and green vines of blossoms petals and moon crescents trail down to the rim of the dress with a thigh high split. Sakura was stunning in the dress. The dress made her show all her curves in all the right areas. "Wow Sakura-san you look great!" Hinata told her. sliding on Sakura's six-and-a-half-inch silverish blue heels Now you ready to go" Tamaki said with a grin. I can't wait to see everybody face when you guys walk in." Tamaki added chuckling now. "bu-but Tamaki I am still uncomfortable in this outfit. And you didn't mention that I would have a split this high either." Sakura wined "SAKURA! Snap out of it, you have an opportunity to make greatness today and prove to father you not who he says you are! So, what will you do, will you disappoint the kingdom and act weak in front them or will you be the head strong stubborn woman I know you be?" Tamaki told her. "Sakura look at her with determination now, it is time for me to determine my own future." Sakura replied. "Good now I will go see what's taking so long you and Hinata stay here."
