To love an angel
CHAPTER ONE:
PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!!! :)
Under the heat of war against Rido and his followers never had Hanabusa Aidou felt this selfless.
The blonde tousled hair vampire was widely known for his narcissism, egotistical demeanour and selfish acts towards others –except for Kuran Kaname, of course- . It's a near-constant condition that he has suffered ever since he was born in this planet. Probably it had something to do with the substantial amount of compliments and the attention he gets from all his fan girls
But now it was different one thing he knew now was: he needed to stop worrying about his life and willingly throw himself into war, without the constant fear of dying.
Right then and there he swore to God that he will protect the academy and the students especially his comrades no matter what, even if it meant he had to sacrifice his life in the process.
"Hanabusa! Behind you!" his cousin Akatsuki shouted. He was currently fighting a noble class vampire so he had no chance of helping Aidou out who in return was battling with fourteen level E vampires. Even though Aidou is a noble, fighting with fourteen blood thirsty level–E was not really easy as he had initially expected especially now that he can feel his body weakening due to blood thirst, he needed to replenish his energy, but it was difficult to find fresh blood nor does he have time to take any of his blood tablets. He doubted that any of these level E's would allow him to do that.
"Hanabusa pay attention to your opponents I don't have the time to save your egotistical ass!" Akatsuki shouted again.
"Shut up! Akatsuki! I know what I'm doing… you should be the one paying attention to that old hag who got you beaten up pretty bad!" hissed Aidou, then he turned one of the level E into ice, the one who nearly slit his throat if Akatsuki hadn't warned him. He kicked the frozen vampire causing it to shatter into tiny crystal like pieces, upon seeing that one of their comrades killed, the level E's came at Aidou one after the other making it hard for him to block any of their attacks.
Seeing that he's cousin was nearly getting owned by the level E's, Akatsuki abandoned his opponent and swooped down to help Aidou. He sent a massive fireball towards the crowd of level E who were currently surrounding his cousin in which after a few seconds he realised Aidou was still in there, when the fireball hit its target sounds of screaming could be heard but one remained dominant and sounded irritated rather than pained.
"Fffffffuucckkkkk!!!" it's amazing how Aidou could elongate that one sentence into five seconds long.
"Oops," Akatsuki didn't really care that much since when they were both still children they would spar each other thus making Aidou immune to his cousin's fire abilities.
"Oh motherfucker, I'll smash your fucking balls and spoon you the mush of your intestines!" Aidou demanded as he appeared next to his cousin. Thank God Aidou too, was one of the fastest vampires in the night class. That is also one of the reasons why Akatsuki dared to hurl a giant fireball.
Akatsuki managed to catch Aidou's wrist before he charged of again to fight the four remaining level Es. "Wait for three more seconds to heal your burns."
"You motherfucking asshole, Its all your fucking fault that's why I turned into a god damn barbeque; when I get my revenge, I'll turn your mother fucking assballs into popsicles" in those three seconds, Akatsuki discovered yet another of Aidou's abilities: creating a string of severe profanities.
"Hey, YOU! How dare you leave your opponent hanging!" the noble vampire pointed at Atkatsuki.
"Who me?" Akatsuki replied non-chalantly and pointed at himself
"Yeah she meant you! OoOoOhhh you're fucking dead!" even at the situation of crisis, Aidou still found the time to tease his cousin.
"GO ahead Hanabusa finish them off and I'll try to do this quickly as well. We also need to go help the others." Thank heavens he can finish them off now, Aidou's charged towards the four vampires and conjured an ice like sword cutting off their heads. Finally the familiar rush of adrenaline started to fill his senses and Aidou was able to stretch the nerves in his face. A huge smirk appeared as he looked at Akatsuki who was now fighting with the old hag.
"Let's finish this," he said and off he went as Aidou froze and sliced the two remaining vampires.
"Akatsuki I'm finished!" he yelled, and plopped himself down the grass trying to catch his breath whilst watching his cousin fight.
"Yeah I'll be right up! I'll just have to finish this OLD HAG"
Thus enraging the vampire noble who Akatsuki directed the two descriptive words to, the female noble came bombarding Akatsuki with more force than she initially did before and now she was more determined to kill him. She flipped her hair to his face making her hair blind Akatsuki for a couple of seconds, giving her enough time to plunge her knife like hands into his heart.
Seeing that his cousin was perfectly still and his hands covering his eyes, Aidou immediately new that the situation had turned bad. Upon impulse Aidou bolted to shield his cousin from her hands thus stabbing him instead.
Aidou's eyes were wide as suddenly, he lost all the power he was storing to help Kaname. His mouth was parted as shock overwhelmed him, and when he put his hand on his left chest, where the root of the sudden deteriorating began, he thought he touched something wet.
"Hanabusa!!" Akatsuki cried, but when Aidou tried to focus on him, all he got was just a blurry smudges of red and orange his cousin eyes and hair.
"You bitch" he still could barely hear the shouting. Akatsuki grabbed the woman's hand that went through Aidou to let her not go away and he chopped her head off. After two seconds the female vampire turned into ashes then Akatsuki laid Aidou on the grass and examined his wound. Realising that his cousin was struck by a poison that makes it hard for vampires to heal, the orange haired vampire carried Aidou to the moon dorms to treat his wounds and he needed to get there fast before his cousin turns to dust.
"Damn it. Aidou I need to get you to the moon dorms, fast. You got struck by poison"
So I've been struck by a poison to stop me from regenerating. Since he didn't know if he still had any voice left to waste, Aidou could only think about it. He's starting to fall, as his grip to start to loosen out of his cousin's shirt. When he saw red liquid stained his hands, he knew that he's right.
"Aidou, hang in there!!" Akatsuki was shouting a hand was grabbed his, but Aidou was sure that even if he tried, he'd die trying instead.
Oh, no. If he's going to die, he's going to die royally. And die hard.
He died saving his cousin.
Finally, he lost all the power, and when he fell, darkness consumed him completely…

"..anabusa…"
"… dou Hanabusa…"
"AIDOU HANABUSA"
Aidou blinked twice, but still he saw nothing. Where was he? Who the fuck shouted his name? Her voice didn't sound like any other females he knew. Then again, there were already too many females for him to handle in his life. Probably one of the angry exes.
But hey, did you actually get beaten up by your exes in hell? He thought there were only fire and worms and the army of Satan.
"This is not hell, Hanabusa," the voice seemed to know his mind. "and neither this heaven, of course. This is what you call 'the road between', purgatory. And I am Kirie, your counsellor."
Counsellor? I'm a vampire aren't I? I'm supposed to be in hell, now God and Satan had a pact to determine which one go to their turfs?
"I hear that. In here, your thoughts are visible to the hell-goers and heaven-goers."
Oops.
"Although, yes, you are right," Kirie said. "God wasn't lying when He said you have sharp mind."
"Half of him I created," another voice piped in. It sounded neither feminine nor masculine.
"Tell him to open his fucking eyes, Kirie, I want to see those cold blue eyes I created."
Aidou heard Kirie sighed deeply. "Very well, Satan. Open your eyes, Hanabusa."
When he did, he's bombarded with only one weird-looking woman who was like the girl version of Chairman Cross, with breasts twice as bigger as her head. The figure was humanly impossible that he had hard time looking away from the blonde.
"Where are the other two?" he asked.
Kirie twitched at his rudeness. "Apparently, you wouldn't be able to see either of them unless you're decided to go to which.. 'turf', as you put it."
"And why the hell I'm not dumped to hell yet? Aren't beasts like me supposed to be chucked their together with those little red men that Satan call his minions?"
"Be careful with your words, Aidou." Kirie's smile was so creepy that Aidou decided to shut up now. "Now let's see. This is your record after being a vampire for 18 –vampire- years: Greed, Vanity, Sloth, breaking the hearts of 1048 women and 967 men -" Kirie's brows twitched at this rate. It seemed that the counsellor was a feminist.
"But I only dumped 56 girls!" Aidou protested, Kirie looked at him intently. Aidou gave up. "alright, and 44 boys."
"I have a theory that the number escalated by 40 whenever you dumped one girl… or boy."
Aidou grumbled under his breath. "I can't help it if I'm so beautiful"
"And of course, profanities," Kirie added cheerfully, "those five are the biggest mistakes you've done in your life, would you like to hear the smaller ones?"
"I got the feeling that it'd took hours," Aidou said sagely. "just skip to the biggest conundrum. Why am I not in hell yet? You sound like you're tired of me."
This time, Kirie's smile was only half as creepy as the first. Aidou began to learn that it's her genuine smile. "Unfortunately, as much as you committed sins, you also got a pure heart. You cared a lot about the others, you never tried to hurt people deliberately, and the ultimate thing was, you died 558 years faster than your time."
Aidou didn't know how to feel. He gazed at the blonde woman, his eyes were wide.
"Of course, there's a debate about you being a vampire which is obviously you are not allowed to go to heaven and sacrificing your life to save your cousin's. But eventually both sides agreed that they'd give you another chance. Satan is especially convinced that you're going to hell no matter what you do."
"I know you're there, Satan, fuck you," Aidou said.
"Back at you, little devil," the voice replied jubilantly.
Kirie coughed to get his attention back. "However, God, on the other hand, thinks otherwise. God thinks that all you need is guidance. And thus, came the oh-so-notorious bet between them. God will send you his daughter to keep your way straight, and Satan's armies will try to ruin it."
Whoa. He never knew that he's so wanted in both places.
"So, we'll send you back to the world!" Kirie said, "of course, the angel will follow you shortly thereafter."
"You three make me sound like I'm a property," Aidou said matter-of-factly. Right after his mouth was closed, again, he's consumed by the familiar darkness. The only difference was now there's also a little blinding sphere of light in some random places.
"Don't die again, Hanabusa! Unless you want to be shipped off down there immediately." even Kirie's last words weren't endearing.
Before he knew it, already he's dozed off to a sleepless slumber on a hospital. Akatsuki was slouching on the chair beside him, his face wrecked as he tried to keep awake.
-
But Aidou wouldn't wake up to a pair of brilliantly yellowy eyes, but instead, he'd be welcomed by an insanely cute angel who went by the name Lisianthus.
And oh, had I mentioned that she'd show up naked?
Deep down there, along with his red workers and the endless fire, Satan was laughing hysterically.
