Chapter 2: そんな想いさえも 消えてしまうの… (Even this kind of emotion will disappear...)


Thea woke up in a daze. She was on a canopy bed, complete with lush sheets and a warm atmosphere, the way she needed it. The scent on the bed smelled so luscious. She inhaled deeply.

"Awake?" She heard a familiar voice say.

Thea's face went red, realizing that that luscious scent was obviously the luscious boy in the chair over there.

The boy just laughed at her. "It's okay. I promise."

"No it isn't! I have to go back! Or else… Or else…" Thea actually knew what would happen. The doctors at the asylum would go through any trouble to make sure that she was returned. This isn't the first time she had escaped. That and her throat was killing her, she needed the blood…

"Don't worry, I already called the asylum and told them that you are to be in my care." The teen said, and his face was sincere.

Thea just broke out into laughter. "So, you're basically wanting to make fun of me because I live in a nut house? Is that it? I bet you read my records and are going to get down deep into my brain everyday. Why? Why do you want me to suffer more than I already do?" At the end Thea's voice became a whine. She was about to start crying again. She gulped to hold back the tears.

The boy's face looked sad. It looked as if he had gone through the same thing, but Thea was sure that was impossible. No one had ever gone through the torture she has. Not anyone, anywhere. Especially because she was only 13, and this boy was clearly older.

"Why?" Thea repeated.

"I never read through your records. In fact, I just wanted to help you. I know what it's like to lose your family. Trust me, I know. And I'm letting you stay here, if you wish."

"Where is this? And… why is your presence so big that it gives me a headache? I don't understand."

The boy looked flabbergasted. " You mean, you aren't a pureblood?"

This time is was Thea's turn to look amazed. She hadn't even heard that word spoken since she was much, much younger, before her parents had died and left her to a life that could only be summarized as hell. That is what her parents told her, that she was a pureblood. But she had gone under a transformation that had almost made her completely human… but had utterly failed. Instead, she suffered pain all the time and had a mutated body, one that didn't fit the physics. It was literally like she was living in hell… her body hurt all the time.

"That's the damn reason I got placed in that freaking nut house! Are you kidding? I thought I was a vampire, because that's what my parents said I was! But then I lost control a couple of times, and I went to a school for humans, I lived by myself, I was so different, so they put me in there, I hurt all the time, I have shots given to me every other day, and more when I escape or act to harshly! My life got turned into hell by that! Well, after my parents died… they tried to turn me into a human, but… it went wrong…" and Thea started choking on tears.

"Well Thea, will you let me do something that can only happen between purebloods?"

"Sure. I don't care what you do with me anymore. Rape me for all I care. But, t least let me know your name… please?"

"It's Kaname Kuran."

"Okay. Well fine. Do what you want, Kaname."

The boy, now known as Kaname, got up from his position in the chair and put his hands on Thea's head. She closed her eyes, and next thing she knew, she was the one with her hands against a familiar, fragile girl that looked broken.

"What happened..?" Thea asked, but her voice was Kaname''s instead of hers.

"I switched our minds to figure out some things about your past. If I may ask, don't dig too far into my past. I might kill you if you do." Her voice, spoken by Kaname, was supposed to sound deadly, but it just sounded like a girl ticked off. Not deadly like Kaname's boy voice could manage.

"I'll try… I'm really sorry if I ponder too far." Thea couldn't stand that her voice didn't sound like hers.

Instead of prying through the vampire's darkest secrets, she focused on the girl that looked like a porcelain doll on the bed. Her hair was cut short and in an emo way, the blackness dissolving into the dark of the room, yet Thea found she could see perfectly with these eyes, the eyes that she was using yet weren't hers.

The doll's face was hurt; Kaname obviously not used to the constant pain of the mutated body. The doll's eyes were lighter than ice, something that Thea had never noticed before. The lips were full, and her face was very, very pale, like the rest of her body.

"How can you live like this? The thirst, you obviously missed out on the daily blood. And all this other pain… what is it from? And is it like this all the time?"

Thea didn't really want to explain anything, so instead she replied "You told me not to look through your memories. I never said you couldn't look through mine."


Nyan! I hope you enjoy this! Oh, and if you had a little trouble with the he/she thingies, ill attempt to explain what i did here.
For physical movements (raise eyebrows, move hands, etc) I used the gender of the body.
For mental things (*blank* was surprised, *blank* was happy, etc.) i used the gender of the mind. (where the mind came from) I hope that helps ^^;
