(Prison)

Mika was on guard duty for a while because of another fight he had with Kimizuki. That lucky bastard got away with it so he was with the team on a mission without him. The only plus side was that he didn't have to leave Akane and the other kids while he was on probation. He turned his head and saw one of the vampires in it's cell writhing in pain on the floor from lack of blood.

"They deserve that and worse." Mikaela thought as he kept walking. He could never forget that awful night.

(Flashback)

The children were all escaping from Sanguinem using a map Mikaela had stolen from Ferid. They had made it to a large door when Ferid came out clapping. "Well done all. I'm impressed you made it this far." He said with that sick smile.

"Di-Did you plan this?" Mikaela stuttered out.

"Of course I did. Did you really think you could steal my map and gun and I wouldn't notice?" Ferid questioned as he pointed to the door behind him. "But that map doesn't lie. If you go through that door, you will end up in the outside world. It will get very hard to follow you. All you have to do is get past me." He finished with his arms outstretched.

Before the kids could even think, Yuichiro stole the gun out of Mika's hands and whispered "Keep them safe." in his ear. Yuu ran up and shoot Ferid a few times in the chest. Then he just giggled and ran up to Yuu, slicing off the arm holding the gun. Then the arm landed near the children and they all screamed in terror. Then Ferid lifted Yuu into the air by his neck. Then he used his second clawed hand to tear at Yuu's chest. Mika panicked and looked down to the severed arm. While resisting the urge to throw up, Mika took the gun out of the disembodied hand and aimed it at Ferid's head and squeezed the trigger. Once Ferid dropped, the children all ran up to Yuu. "Big brother, are you okay?" The little ones asked. Yuu was on the floor. He had lost a lot of blood and had trouble breathing since Ferid chocked him so hard. "Mika." He called with what little strength he had left.

Mika crawled over to were he was. "How can I help?" He asked in an over protective brother tone.

"You can't. You all have to leave, without me." Yuu said as they heard guards running towards them.

"NO!" They all screamed at once. "We can't do that Yuu. You're family and you never give up on family."

"That's exactly why you need to leave. I can't let you get captured because I slowed you down. I can't do that to my family." Yuu said weakly as the guards came closer. "Run you idiots. Don't let me die for nothing."

Mika was about to protest again when Yuu coughed up a lot of blood and closed his eyes. Then he just melted to the floor and didn't pick himself back up.

"Yuu?" Akane asked checking for a pulse. "Yuu?" She repeated through the tears. Then she laid her head on his chest crying joined by everyone else.

"Yuu stop fooling around." Mika said but there was no response. "Yuu, we need to get going." Mika said shaking him like he was trying to get him out of bed.

"Mika stop." Akane said through the tears, leaning into a hug with him. "He's gone." She sobbed out.

Mika started to cry like the rest of them. But then he heard on of the guards scream out "Stop right there livestock!" Like a slap in the face, it made Mika realize that they were still in danger. He grabbed everyone and ran out the door with them while most of them argued and struggled saying that they had to go back for him. "At least you finally called us family." Mika thought as they ran outside. When they got outside it was snowing and they all saw woods for miles. Then Mika finally stopped from the snow hurting his bare feet. Then they all heard a voice call out from behind them. "Good, they're here." They turned to see three humans walking towards them. "It was foretold we would come in contact with subjects from the Hyukuya sect." One of them said leaning down to eye-level with Mika. "So how 'bout it kid. How would you like the chance to kill the vampires." Then Mika caved in and hugged the man causing them both to fall into the snow. "I'll do it. Just so long as I can kill every last one."

(End of Flashback)

That Human that saved them was Guren of course. He took in all the kids and helped them grow for four long years. Most of them went to school now a days while Akane trained to become a soldier. It was as close to a normal childhood that they had ever gotten. While he was training he had made new friends. Shiho Kimizuki, Yoichi Saotome, Shinoa Hiragi, and Mitsuba Sangu. Well Kimizuki only kinda. They fought all the time including one today in Guren's office where one of his missed punches hit Guren right in the face. That's how Mika ended up making sure those blood suckers didn't escape from prison.

After those parasites killed Yuu, he sure as Hell wasn't giving them any sympathy for starving to death. Mikaela turned the corner and the vampire in another cell was doing the same thing. He was very annoyed now so he flipped on the UV lights in the cell to make him hurt even worse. Those lights caused the vampire to hiss and back into the corner of the cell. What Mika saw next terrified him. The thin face, the black hair, even with the red eyes Mikaela would know his features like the back off his hand. This vampire looked just like... "Yuu?" He asked.
