Rise to the Moon

by machiaveIIian

Yui breaks, and by these means, manages to escape. But one and a half years later, when word reaches Yui's ears that her sister has disappeared, Yui knows exactly where she is, and vows to free her from her captors. However, she does not know that there is a bigger, more sinister plot underlying her current plans- and Yui is not the only one whose life is threatened by it.

1. Conscending

To begin with, Yui did not know what overcame her.

First came, judging from her gentle nature, the irrational dread.

Then the hatred- not towards the vampires, but towards herself and her father, for getting into the circumstances she was in. Curiosity soon followed.

And lastly, the undeniable, unattainable urge; she wanted out.

It was hard to pinpoint when everything had started, since it escalated and tumbled into a mass of writhing emotions within the girl, but she reckoned it was somewhere when Kanato had taken her necklace when she was asleep; in her most vulnerable state (although when awake, the girl's defences didn't make much difference, only provided for slight entertainment and annoyance), he had stolen her necklace, bitten her, and stayed with her throughout the night. And when the girl woke up to him smiling at her- it looked more like a grimace, if anyone were to describe it- she asked what had him in such a good mood; to that, he vanished, giggling about some kind of new accessory for his dolls. Poor bleary-eyed, tired Yui thought nothing of it.

It was only when Yui was making Ayato takoyaki when she- or rather he did, quite furiously one might add- notice the bite marks Kanato left behind. She felt for her necklace, like she always did when one of the brothers bit her, to pray, but her hand touched her skin and she felt no metal barrier stopping her fingers. Discarding the idea of it being stole, for she was in a house full of vampires, for Christs' sake, she clinged onto the ignorant hope that the necklace was in her room- and proceeded to finish off the takoyaki.

It was only after she turned her room upside down, looking for her beloved necklace, when she put two and two together and bravely scuttled down the hallways in a search for Kanato. She even resorted to calling- but when she foud the lavender tufts of hair, she soon shut up, and raced after him to ask him the question she could not really word due to her abscence of courage.

"Kanato-san, have you seen my necklace?"

His reply was barely noticeable underneath all the maniacal giggling he voiced.

"Yes- "

"Where is it? Would you please tell me?"

"Someone much, much prettier is wearing it now," a fit of giggles left him, "And, you won't be seeing it again!"

Then, he vanished, and when Yui came to the realization of how helpless she was against the vampires, and that she couldn't retrieve her most prized possession, she sat down, wondering what she ever did to deserve this fate. Then, she thought about all the suffering ion the world, and deemed any God that was watching over her and humanity as cruel.

And then she wished for the world and all the Gods above to go to hell.
