Chapter 1

The Awakening

30 years it had been…

She's still sleeping…

And they're still waiting…

The last show-down Hagi had spent his last moments killing Amshel, and the second the balcony collapsed onto him and his enemy he confessed to Saya that he loved her. That was the last time she saw him. Shortly after her, Kai, and their 2 nieces escaped the opera house, it was bombed destroying any evidence of what went down.

It wasn't long until Saya had fallen asleep, cutting the world around her off. Julia was pregnant, Hagi was gone, and Kai adopted his nieces as his own two daughters. He decided to call them Miyuki and Mayumi, but they still didn't call me him "Dad'' just plain old Kai.

A couple years later, Kai had met and fell in love with an American girl named Annalisa. It wasn't long until they were married and had a child of their own. They named him Riku. Soon after Riku was born, they had another son, and named him after his dad, George. After the girls had stopped aging, Annalisa started to ask a lot of questions. Kai couldn't lie to the girl that she loved. So he gave her the whole speech that David gave to him when they were being tested to see if they were chiropterans. When she agreed to the terms, he explained everything to her, from the beginning to the end. This came to a big shock to her, so he brought her to the family grave where Saya was sleeping.

"She's beautiful!" she said as she clasped her hands to her mouth. Her eyes never left the cacoon that encased Saya as she slept soundly, unaware of the world evolving around her.

"She's my sister" Kai said as he wrapped an arm around her.

Since then, Annalisa and Kai would go visit the grave to give Saya some company, bringing her fresh pink roses every time. Mayumi and Miyuki would also come along to pay respects for their father, even though they never got to meet him. They would, however, listen in awe at the stories Kai told them.

Some more years have passed since then, and it struck Kai that Saya was to wake up any day now. So he woke up at the crack of dawn to leave to the grave. After he finished getting ready he kissed his wife on his forehead while she was still sleeping, and set off to the grave where he knew she was soon to awaken.

Kai drove his motorcycle instead of the car because he knew that she liked to ride on it whenever she got the chance to. The whole ride there, he was having flashbacks of them two of the motorcycle and driving past the beach. He couldn't help but admit to himself that he had some feelings for her.

By the time he arrived, he saw the door to the family grave already open from the bottom of the steps. He ran up them as quick as he could.

Kai could hear his heart in his ears as thoughts as panic raced through his mind.

By the time he had reached the top, Saya was already awake, on the ground struggling to move.

"..Kai?" she said half smiling.

A feeling of calm washed over Kai.

This time she remembered. This was a good sign.

"You look so old," she said before passing out.
