A/N

I know, I didn't finish that new story I started but you know what? I thought about it and decided that I didn't want the whole world reading my life so I quit. This new story is full of my newest obsession, Vampire's. I just read and watched Vampire Hunter D and now I can't stop thinking about D or Vampire's. Therefore, I will write a fanfic with Vampire's. If you don't like it, tough, you don't have to read it. Anyway, hope you like it!


Vampire's Kiss

Sobs racked her body as she sat, shivering, on a forgotten log. Her long black hair swayed in the cold night breeze as icy tears fell from her eyes. Her hands rubbed her arms feverously, trying to create warmth. A shiver ran down her spine as more sobs escaped her throat. She sat in the small clearing in the middle of the woods, far from her friends, for about an hour. Then, she felt a pair of familiar hands upon her shoulders as a thick black fabric surrounded her shivering body. She smiled as she held the cloth to her. She placed one hand upon the hand on her shoulder. The skin of this hand was cold to the touch.

"Arigato Iroaku-Sama."

"I thought I said you could just call me by my name. You don't need to use my title Kagome."

"Gomen, I forgot."

"It is alright."

Kagome smiled at the tall man behind her as he came and sat next to her. He was a man of average height. He had pure white, flawless, skin. He had shoulder length black hair. His hair had a silver shine to it, making it glow in the moonlight. He had crystal blue eyes that sparkled with so many emotions. They resembled pools of frozen water. He wore black harori and hakamas. Gold designs sewn into the fabric. He wore a pair of black, demon leather boots. Gold outlining them as well. His black harori sported a tall collar, the fabric reached to his chin. She could tell the fabric was of the finest silk. She grasped the velvet cape that was now draped over her shoulders.

Iroaku took a seat next to Kagome upon the log. He stared at her with his sparkling crystal eyes. Then, he placed a hand upon her shoulder. She brought her attention from the ground to his angelic face. She remembered the first time she had encountered Iroaku. She had been running from Inuyasha. She had seen him and Kikyo together and wished to die. She had run deep into the forest and got lost. She sat on the ground, her back to a tree. After about an hour, she heard his deep and soothing voice behind her. She had jumped at the sound and turned to see him. His appearance had frightened her. After talking a few minutes, she realized he was no threat. She soon began to trust the man. Evening after evening, she would run into the forest crying and he would appear to comfort her. That was the current situation. She stared into his eyes a moment before he spoke. His voice was deep and soothing, as usual, but she couldn't get enough of that sound.

"What did he do this time? Was he with the clay woman again?"

"No, he said I was his shard detector when I told him I loved him. He made it clear that he didn't care about me. It broke my heart Iroaku."

Kagome broke down and began crying again. Iroaku wrapped her in his cold arms and held her close. He rocked them back and forth until she began calm down. She rested her head against his chest as he continued to comfort her. He rubbed her back gently and stroked her hair. Soon, she drifted asleep in his arms. He let her rest for a moment before gently shaking her awake. Her dark chocolate eyes stared into his crystal blue ones as she rose and stared at the ground again. After a moment of silence, Iroaku spoke to her.

"Why do you stay with him if this is how the Hanyou treats you? You deserve better."

"I know but I need to complete the jewel and the only way I can is with him. I can't fight demons and take their shards. That's what he does, he kills them and takes their shards while I hunt them down and purify the shards. That's how it works."

"I understand but why don't you and your two other friends hunt the shards without him?"

"Because they don't understand."

They remained silent a moment. Then, Kagome had an idea.

"Why don't you join my group Iroaku? Inuyasha wouldn't dare hurt me with you around."

Iroaku stared at Kagome's smiling face a moment before he sighed. He lowered his head, his long black and silver hair falling around his face. He shook his head from side to side. Kagome's smile faded. Her head dropped as well but from disappointment.

"I'm sorry Kagome. I can't."

Iroaku got off the log and kneeled in front of Kagome. He grasped her hands in his cold ones. He stared into her eyes as he spoke.

"When we first met Kagome, you asked me why I look the way I do. Well, I trust you enough now to tell you. I'm a Vampire, Kagome. A creature that is forbidden to walk in the sun. A person who is cursed by the devil himself. Forced to drink the blood of others just to survive only to live eternally alone."

Kagome merely stared at the man, creature, Vampire before her in shock. She knew something was different about him but she just pushed it aside. Now that she knew the truth, she still didn't care. At least now she knew why she never saw him during the day. Why he always appeared after the sky turned black and left before the sky began to lighten up. After a moment, she managed to pull herself from her thoughts and gave him a smile. He seemed puzzled by her smile. Wasn't she scared? Horrified? Anything? She was happy. He smiled in return.

"You're not scared of me? Horrified at what I am?"

"No."

"Why?"

"I knew you were different from the moment I met you Iroaku. I never thought anything of it until you brought it up. I don't judge people by what they are, but who they are. It doesn't matter to me that they aren't human, hell, I could care less. It's what's in their heart that I judge. And I can tell, even though you must kill to survive, you have a good heart. That is why I trust you."

Iroaku smiled and stood before Kagome. He grasped her hands and pulled her gently to stand before him. With one hand, he pulled the cloth from Kagome's shoulders and returned it to his collar. His cape flew around the two as they stared into each others eyes. After a moment, he began to speak.

"Kagome, I face an eternity of loneliness. To never have another person by my side. It would bring me the greatest joy if you would be my Vampire queen. Would you please stand by my side? Bring me warmth, joy, everything. Please Kagome, I don't want to be alone forever."

"I would Iroaku, but I want to walk in the sun."

"You are a Miko, correct?"

Kagome nodded her head.

"Then you will. Your spiritual powers will cancel out a Vampire's weaknesses. All of them, including the sun, crosses and a stake to the heart. You will have your sun Kagome and you will have the moon. You will have it all. And think, Inuyasha can never hurt you again. I will be by your side. If he seeks you out, I will deal with him."

"But Iroaku! You can't walk in the sun! How will you fight Inuyasha if he comes?"

"Don't worry Kagome. If he comes looking for you, he will come to my castle and there is no sun light in my castle. He will face me in the fire light, the only light I can tolerate a long with moonlight. He will never hurt you again, I promise Kagome."

"Will I also be able to kill Naraku and complete the jewel?"

"Yes, Naraku has destroyed many of my Vampire companions. I wish for his death as well. Nothing will be able to stop you. You will be truly immortal."

Iroaku leaned forward and laid gentle kisses along the skin above Kagome's jugular vein. Kagome gasped and leaned her head to the side just a bit. In her mind, she knew this was wrong, but her heart said otherwise. As he kissed her neck, he continued to speak, his voice huskier than before.

"We will rule the land, together, for eternity. Neither of us will ever be alone. Vampire's are meant to spend eternity alone. But no one ever said two Vampire's couldn't spend eternity alone together, right? What do you say Kagome? Will you be my queen?"

Kagome thought a moment. What should she say? His offer was so tempting. She would be immortal and she could walk in the sun. Inuyasha could never hurt her and she would be loved the rest of her undead life. She took a deep breath as she looked into his crystal eyes. They shimmered with great hope and fading loneliness. She hated to see sadness in those orbs. She placed her warm hand upon he cold face and spoke.

"Yes Iroaku, I will be your queen."

Iroaku smiled a pleasant smile, one that should never be seen on the face of the undead. The smile warmed Kagome's heart. She smiled in return, making him smile even brighter. He held her warm, living, body close to his cold, undead one. His cape, like a pair of bat wings, wrapped around them, providing them with warmth and security. He breathed in her sweet scent and noticed it was coated with nervousness. She was second guessing her decision. He pulled back enough to gaze into her dark brown eyes.

"It will be alright Kagome. The pain only lasts a minute, and then it fades. I promise. I would never hurt you."

Kagome smiled and nodded to Iroaku. He then began kissing the skin above her jugular again. He pulled all her hair away from her throat as she tilted her head to the side. He kissed until he felt her pulse under his lips. He then trailed his tongue along the pulse, putting Kagome in a trance. He didn't want to cause her more pain than necessary. He looked to her face, her eyes were glazed over.

"The trance will lessen the pain Kagome. Now, brace yourself."

Kagome gave a weak nod. Iroaku's face contorted as his fangs began to grow. They were long, at least three inches. The sparkled like newly polished ivory. He gave her pulse one last lick before he pierced her pale flesh. She let out a yelp of pain when his fangs broke the skin and she began to bleed. He held still, licking up the spilt blood. After a moment, he pulled his fangs out. He licked up the remaining blood. Upon her neck were two, red, fang scars. The skin had already healed. Her skin began to turn white. He gazed into her glazed eyes as her vision faded black.
