Seeing you Upon a Golden Moon
My eyes widen as I suck in a quick gasp. My heart falls to my stomach as it shatters. A sobbed scream rips through my lips as I wrap my arms around myself.
"Rin, I am so sorry.." Rei says softly as he walks towards me.
"Don't come near me!" I scream as tears cascade down my cheeks. Rei falters, his blue eyes searching mine.
"Do you regret it?" I whisper as I sob. Rei's face twists.
"Of course.." he says softly as he reaches for me excitedly, I cringe away and look to the side. "She showed me something amazing. You'll love it."
"Don't even-" I meet his eyes to find them gold. My blood runs cold as I take a step away.
"R-Rei." I stammer. He laughs, exposing six large fangs. He takes a step forward and I turn, sprinting forward. His nails brush my neck, and I scream in pain, only quickening my pace. I glance to the side before gulping down a breath and running into the woods.
I was running as fast as I could, a hand clamped on my neck, my other pumping by my side. My breath came I ragged huffs. My dress was torn, leaves and small branches sticking out of my hair. I reach my one arm out to block my face from a thorn bush, the claws rip into my skin and tug. I yelp in pain and pull my arm down as soon as the branch is gone. My vision goes fuzzy before black spots jump around. I press my neck harder. Pressure! Keep pressure on it! Warm, red liquid seeps through my fingers and rolls down my arm, pooling at the bottom of my long sleeve, before dripping down or traveling to my inner arm. The full moon lit my way through the forest as I ran, there's a ravenous growl from behind me and I push myself faster. I break through the brush and slam roughly into someone. We tumble to the ground and I roll, panting as I jump to my feet again. I scan the trees as I gulp down lungfuls of air.
"Woah..hold on there.." the person grabs my arm just as I'm about to run again. Panic claws at my throat as I bring my wide eyes to meet his. His eyes scan over me before his eyebrows come together in confusion.
"Let me go-" I pant before he cuts me off by shaking his head as if trying to get rid of a thought. He smiles kindly as he tightens his grip on my wrist. My throat goes dry in terror. Rei would be here any second for me..
"Let me take care of this." the man breaths as he presses his nose to my forehead. Drowsiness washes over me, the pain in my neck and arm fade to nothing. My eyelids droop dangerously low, my libs feeling like stone. I fall forward and the man easily catches me. And just before my eyes completely close...I could've sworn I saw his eyes turn a shade of gold in the moon light.

"She lost a lot of blood." a soft feminine voice says close to my head.
"I heard!" an equally feminine voice says, however this one was more bubbly. Coolness washes over me as they place something on my forehead. They pull back my warmth, to which I twitch at. One girl giggles.
"She twitches in her sleep." the bubbly voice says.
"Hush Teto." the gentle voice hisses. There's silence as they seem to be bringing a washcloth, or what feels to be one, up and down my legs.
"Where's Master, Luka?" the girl, Teto, asks. The other one, Luka sighs.
"He's sleeping, as always." she answers fondly. A sudden pain like sensation starts in my neck and I try not to move. I don't want to wake up yet. I try to ignore the constant throbbing pain, but it never fades, only grows stronger. I can't even listen to the girls talk over me anymore, it's taking my every ounce of control not to move. The throbbing refused to stop, I suck in a quick breath, startling the woman. My eyes fly open as I squirm in discomfort.
"Luka!" Teto, I'm guessing, gasps. I blink twice more, before taking the woman. The one on my right had long pink hair, blue eyes, fair skin and was wearing a simple pinkish dress that came down to her feet with a white apron around her waist. I turn my gaze to Teto, her hair was also pink, but was darker then Luka's, her eyes were hazel, with a little more color in her skin then Luka, her dress was a deep green and only came to her knees with layers of frill. She also wore a white apron; she had what I assumed, was white socks on to cover her legs, with black shoes. Both dresses were long sleeve, but the material looked thin, for the summer weather. Their dresses also covered their necks, so no skin was showing except for the front. I push myself up; to which both girls quickly grab my arms and help me. I gasp in pain as I move my neck to look fully at Teto. She winces and I quickly bring my hand up to touch my neck. To my surprise it was covered in a material.
"Please don't move Miss..." Luka trails off.
"Rin." I answer softly, to which they both look at me in shock.
"Miss Rin, please refrain from moving your neck, the Master worked very hard to fix it up." Teto says bowing. I take in the room, high raised ceilings, lavishly furnished, finely laid out. The golden clouds of sunset casting shadows through out my room. I freeze.
"Where am I?" I breath. Teto and Luka share a look.
"You are at the Masters main house." I glance out the window and could see my small town down below us. My blood runs cold. I was in the Kagamine estate. Thee Kagamine's which had lived here for centuries. Never seen, never heard.
"What is...Master?" I ask in a shaky voice, the foreign word rolling off my tongue weirdly.
"He is the highest class of Nobles, he's actually very close friends with his majesty." Teto says brightly as Luka nods fondly. They confirmed my fear.
"Pl-please! Let me help to repay this Master." I say quickly, I stumble out of the bed, my vision blurs and I sway, dizziness taking it's toll on me as I fall forward. Luka quickly catches me. My neck pulses in pain.
"You should stay in bed." a firm voice says from the doorway, causing all of us in the room to jump.
"W-we didn't hear you come in Master." Luka says quietly as she helps me back to bed. Teto props pillows up so I'm in a sitting position as they throw my blanket back over me.
"Go help the other maids." the man from before says softly. Teto and Luka quickly grab the water basin and washcloths.
"Yes master." they answer bowing, before rushing out. I turn my gaze away from the maids to look at the man completely. I couldn't help but let my face flush. His hair was a soft golden blonde, bangs a mused mess over his forehead, the rest tied back with a crimson ribbon. He wore a black long-tail suit, the collar popped up, with white cloth ruffling out from where the collar met. The cloth was held into place by a ruby pendent, the tails of the suit hung around his long legs. He wore black pants and simple black shoes. He was completely stunning. His bright blue eyes examined me closely before he took slow, measured steps towards me. I ran into this person. I ran into a Kagamine. I pale slightly.
"May I sit?" he asks in a voice sweet as honey. I nod with a small smile, trying to be polite. He sits on the edge of my bed and I move my legs so he has more room.
"How are you feeling?" he asks softly. I frown slightly.
"I feel fine, my neck stings a bit, must've been a bad accident." I muse.
"Mm...it was. You're luck I ran into you." he says, fighting a smile. Why is he so humored by that? I watch his actions carefully.
"The accident? No." I whisper quietly as I touch my neck. He nods. And stands. Walking closer to me; he lightly touches the bandage on my neck, and smiles.
"Mm..." he breathes. "Hopefully you will be better soon. As soon as you are, I'll show you around the estate." he says before turning.
"I can't stay here!" I cry, reaching my hand out to him.
"Mm..of course you can." he says, not turning.
"Wait! Wh...what's your name...I...I feel wrong calling you master...or Kagamine." I say softly in shyness. He goes quiet and stands facing away from me. I rethink what I said and my eyes widen.
"I am so sorry, I didn't mean to disrespect you in your own home, if you prefer me to call you Master...or Kagamine, I will." I say in sudden embarrassment.
"Call me, Len-" he answers softly. "No harm taken, please, make yourself at home. You should rest, Teto and Luka shall attend to you." he finishes before completely walking out of the room. I let my fingers flutter over my neck, the pain completely gone.
"Len Kagamine.." I murmur as I nestle back down into the blankets. Numbness starts in my neck before spreading slowly. My eyelids fall closed just as the sunsets beneath my window.

I was slowly getting use to the way the estate ran. Teto and Luka come and go daily, sometimes just Teto, other times just Luka. Teto will stay with me for hours on end until Luka drags her out of the room to do her chores. Which makes me giggle at their friendly fights. Luka tells me about the estate grounds, and about the two other lords that live with Len- or Master as she refers to him as. There's Kaito, who Luka has taken a fancy too, not that she'll admit it, but her blush gives her away. She says he has endless blue eyes like the ocean, not light like Len's but a dark blue. His hair is blue and always cleanly brushed, unlike Len's messy hair. Kaito usually wears a baggy long sleeve shirt, black pants and shoes, along with a long blue scarf around his neck. Which I find odd because of the warm weather. She then tells me about another male, Ted, his hair was the color of Teto's, but longer, reaching all the way down his back, he holds it back in a ribbon like Len. He wears a white shirt like Kaito's, and a simple black vest, black pants and shoes, with green eyes. I begged Luka to take me to see them and introduce me but she merely laughs and says when I feel better. When she isn't telling me stories of Len and his male companions, she tells me of her shopping trips to the village, telling me recent news and what she bought. And when Teto's with me she tells me all the gossip of the estate maids, she tells me of tales that sound completely impossible from flying spiders that she had to beat down with her magic broom, to saving the whole castle from a kitchen fire started by a witch! I know she's bluffing, but she finds great fun in it and I don't want to ruin it so I merely play along to amuse her. She'll tell me about fashion and for fun, we'll keep my door open and she'll name all the maids that scurry past. Then she will tell me the latest gossip on them, that is, until Len walks past and shuts my door, a smile playing on his lips as I protest before he shuts the door completely. After Len ruins our game, Teto hurriedly rushes into talking about fashion and how all the girls in town dress. Luka and Teto bring me dinner, to which Len joins me for. He sits on the edge of my bed and reads to me from a book he picks out, I ask for, or we just talk. He checks my neck every night; and gradually the bandage grows smaller and smaller. After he leaves, taking my tray with him, I am alone for the night. Until it starts all over the next day. It's a schedule I have grown use to and will never seem to bore of.
U3U
I slowly open my eyes, stretching and relaxing into my warm bed, it was about 5 in the afternoon. The mansion is always more lively at night; from what I've heard, Len is a night owl and prefers to work at night. I throw the covers aside and swing my legs off of the bed.
"Strange." I murmur. Usually Luka is in here when I wake up to aid me to bathe and use the restroom. Len still believes that I am not use to walking and need the assistance. In my own opinion, I will never be able to walk if I'm treated like a child. I place my feet against the cold floor and slowly raise. My legs were numb and trembling as I stagger forward. I slam into the door before turning to look at the door to the hallway. I bite my lip before slowly making my way to the door.
I slump against the door and slowly click it open with a frown. Luka was never late to help me.
"Len said he would bring me out when I was ready, but...something has to be wrong, neither Luka or Teto have been here yet. It's to make sure their safe." I vow as I grab the handle and twist; pulling the door open.
My room was in a long hallway, and I turn my head from side to side, my short hair brushing against the small bandage on my neck. I turn to the right and slowly make my way down the hallway, right is always right. My hand never leaves the wall as I press against it roughly. I was too busy with my worry to care to pay attention to the hallway and the decorations. At the end of the hallway, it empties into a large room, I walk towards the railing and lean over. Everything was spotless. I take a deep breath before turning to the side and taking the left stairs slowly. My bare feet were freezing as I release the railing.
"Rin." I voice says from above me. I blink in confusion before looking above me. I stifle a scream as I find a black haired man clinging to the chandelier with gold eyes. He disappears from sight and these a tinkling sound.
"RIN!" Len yells as he slams into me. I hit the floor roughly me head snapping back and hitting the floor. I gasp as glass rains on me. My vision blurs before returning to normal. I scream. Len was laying beneath the chandelier, blood escapes from somewhere hidden in his coat. He blinks at me as he face twists into a harsh smile.
"Oh god Len." I whisper, as I crawl forward. I lightly bring his hair out of his face, before trying to find the wound. He groans as he slides out from under the heavy gold metal.
"Where's the maids?" I ask. Len blinks repeatedly at me before frowning.
"Rin, go back to your room, it's not safe." he says lowly. I push against his shoulder to try and get him to lay down again.
"Were we attacked? Are Luka and Teto okay? The other Lords? For heavens sake! Len lay down!" I yell, Len growls and meets my gaze with his. Gold eyes meet mine, I fall back slightly in a daze. Len's eyes widen as he pushes himself up, and moves quickly so he's kneeling in front of me. His blue eyes meet mine.
"Rin. Go to your room. Now. And don't look back." he says slowly, deliberately. I stare back at his eyes.
"Now Rin!" he yells. I bounce to my feet and I stumble through the glass shards as I attempt to find my room again. My neck burns in pain, my clumsy feet catch on the hem of my nightdress and I fall forward. I gasp as I slam into the floor. My memory rushes back to me, that night. Tears color my vision. Rei.
"I found you~" a voice sings behind me. I roll over and come face to face with Rei. He presses his body down against me to hold me in place. His gold eyes bore into mine and I let out a bloodcurdling scream. I slam my eyes shut and just as quick as he was on me, the weight is gone. My eyes fly open as I am quickly picked up bridal style by Len. He shoves my face into his shoulder so I can't see.
"Len?" I ask, he ignores me as he races down the hallway. He makes a quick left and releases my head. I find myself in a small room, the door shuts behind him and he gently sets me down. Maids cluster around him and he makes a dismissive hand motion. They scatter away, huddling back against the wall as Len sighs.
"Rin!" I turn towards the call to find Luka and Teto.
"Luka! Teto!" I whisper happily as I fling myself at them. They hug me back and I pull back quickly. The image of Len's blood coloring the floor coming back.
"We have to hurry, Len was hurt by the chandelier!" I say franticly as I motion to him. His eyes were closed, it looked as if he was trying not to be angry.
"Luka, Teto, and everyone else. Please take Rin and go through one of the secret hallways and get Rin as far away from here as possible." Len says slowly. I gap at him in shock.
"But Len, your hurt." I breath.
"Please Rin." he hisses between clenched teeth.
"Come on Rin." Luka says quietly. I nod in a daze as she pulls me towards a door. The door we came through is thrown open and Len launches himself at Rei with a snarl.
"Len!" I scream, running out of Luka's grasp. I fall against the door frame and look out into the hallway. I almost collapse in horror. My blood runs cold. Len's beautiful blue eyes were now golden, with slitted pupils, Rei was laying lifelessly on the floor. Len turns to look at me as he licks blood off his thumb, his arm was completely covered in blood, showing me six large fangs. Four that protruded from his upper jaw, and two from the lower. The monster that murdered innocent humans stood before me. A monster that killed mercilessly. Gold eyes, fangs, blood.
Rei..was turned into a vampire and tried to kill me. He was killed by Len.
Len...
was also a vampire.
Also: please ignore my grammar mistakes.
