Chapter 2
Yui walked the hallway of the mansion that he and the rest of the vampire coven he lived with were in. The house stood in one of the suburbs of Tokyo with shutters and curtains covering the windows in order to keep the sunlight out during the day. Kusanagi watched him walk by.
"So, the Flowright twins separated by the looks of things." He said.
"My brother is nothing but a traitor now." Yui growled.
"Never thought he would betray us, so where is he now?"
"Dead!" he answered.
Kurogane was asleep from the events from the night before in Yuko's shop, When he, Domeki, and Watanuki arrived with the guy that laid on top of him in the streets, he passed out since he forgot that some of his own blood got sapped by something. He groaned from the pain that surged in his neck and he opened his eyes to bright sunlight that seeped in through the window.
"Hello!" a black, bunny looking creature exclaimed.
He screamed and tossed the covers causing the creature to jump and laugh as he landed on the night table, "What the hell are you!? And where am I!?"
"You're in Yuko's shop!" a little girl said.
"You're in Yuko's shop." Aboy repeated.
"Wait, I was still here all along?" he asked.
"Yep!" the creature exclaimed.
"At least I am still alive and not in hell!" he said and felt the sting his neck and felt the bandage on it and thought, did that guy bit me? He couldn't have, could he?
"Ah, you're awake!" he heard and then looked to see the woman.
"You must be the one named Yuko."
"Yes, I am Yuko Ichihara and the ones who watched over you are Maru, Moro, and Mokona." Yuko answered.
"I'm Kurogane, I am…"
"I know, Doumeki and Watanuki explained to me who you are. You must be lucky that you're alive after what happened." Yuko told him as she opened a new bottle of sake.
"What'd you mean?" Kurogane asked.
"I can't explain what happened only the one who sucked your blood can do that." Yuko told him as she poured two glasses. Mokona jumped onto the table and started drinking the sake.
"He did bit me after all. Where is he?"
"He's resting in the other guest room. Looks like he'll pull through after drinking your blood it stabilized him." Yuko answered as she sipped the drink.
"Who or what is he?" Kurogane asked.
"A creature that is not human!" Moro exclaimed.
"A creature that is not human!" Maru exclaimed.
"Can I see him?" Kurogane asked.
"Go ahead, a little warning, he might go for your blood again." Yuko told him with a slight smirk.
"Whatever…" Kurogane said and went off to the room. He found a room that had its door parted a bit and he slid it open and came in. He saw that it was pitch black due to the curtains covering each window. He went over to the bed to find the guy that was injured from the night before was bandaged up. He also had a bandage patch up his missing eye. "This is the guy?"
The gguy groaned and opened his eye to reveal a dark red eye and it saw him and then looked at his surroundings and then looked back at Kurogane and said, "It's you."
"Yeah…"
He sighed in relief and said, "Good, I didn't kill you from my drink."
"Yeah, I need my salary to pay off my rent." Kurogane grumbled.
"Aw, you're really cute. Oh, where are my manners, I'm Fai D. Flowright and thank you for saving my life."
"Uh, Kurogane, it was nothing. Next time don't bite my neck."
"Aw, that's impssoible, you're my blood supply now." Fai told him.
"What?"
"Well, you see, I am a vampire and usually my kind kills the ones they prey upon but I didn't kill you in an instant like the others would have."
"Vampire!? So, you're saying you sucked my blood in order to survive from the injuries you had!? And others!?"
"Yes, I live with other vampires and well…I decided to go my separate way and my twin brother, Yui, tried to kill me because of it. So I fed on you since you were the closest in the area. Since you're still alive, my spell has been activated." Fai answered.
"Spell? What spell?"
"You see, when a vampire doesn't kill his or her prey there is a spell that causes a person to become their supply and not only that their partner." Fai answered.
"Partner?"
"Yes, I can use magic through you but I decided to never use it again." Fai said and smiled.
"Whatever, at least I'm alive and going to school to teach my class." Kurogane told him
"Aw, can I come with?" Fai asked.
"No! Just stay here where you need to heal from your wounds and besides the sunlight wouldn't be great on your fragile skin." Kurogane joked and walked out of the room.
"Aww, he is so cute when he's like that." Fai said.
At the school, Watanuki, Doumeki, and Himewari were walking down the halls after their first class of the day and saw Kurogane heading towards his class.
"Eh!? I can't believe you're alive!" Watanuki exclaimed.
"Huh? What'd you mean?" Himewari asked.
"We kinda found him lying on the ground passed out last night with someone." Doumeki answered.
"Oh? A lover some sorts?" she asked.
"Well…not exactly!" Watanuki answered.
"Listen, it was someone who was drunk and he got me drunk as well so we ended up at some lady's shop, if you excuse me, I got a class to teach." Kurogane told them and left the hall towards his class.
"What got his boxers up his asscrack?" Doumeki asked.
"I don't know but he sure seems kinda pale from last night." Watanuki told him as they kept on walking to their next class.
"Whatever it is, he shouldn't have come to teach." Himewari said.
Fumo returned to Yuko's shop after his latest errand with some information for her. "That vampire that is resting in that room was definitely from my brother's coven."
"I see, I wander why he's here and how come he left?" Yuko asked.
"I wonder the same thing, my brother is not the type to let his mates go like that especially when it comes to the Flowright twins. According to some people who saw some of their friends and family get killed by them and witnessed it always say their skills are really great especially when it comes to their magic." Fumo told her.
"What Doumeki and Watanuki told me last night, he was about to die when they found them both on the ground, it looks like either one of them were in a fight or Fai was about to kill that teacher." Yuko said.
"Want me to find out for you?" Fumo asked.
"Yes and I have a few questions for Fai myself." Yuko answered.
"Right." Fumo said and then ran out of the shop.
Yuko turned and went to the room where Fai was in. She found him lying in bed looking at the closed windows, she said, "I thought your kind would still be asleep around this time."
"I couldn't sleep with the nightmares of last night now haunting me." Fai said. "Besides, we don't sleep all day like all the myths and legends suggest, we take naps to rest ourselves after our hunts."
"Tell me something, why did you leave Seishirou's coven?" Yuko asked.
"Because I hated being feared and always taking lives for our own, so I left and in the process almost got killed by my own brother. That is why I was able to survive, by drinking Kurogane's blood." He answered.
"So, you betrayed your own kind to live among us. Do you think you will be accepted into this world?" she asked.
"Maybe, why, you don't think so?" Fai asked.
"Maybe, maybe not, it's your choice, if you have a wish just come to me with it and I'll see if I can help you make it come true." She answered and left the room.
"A wish? Are you some kind of witch?" Fai asked.
"You could call me that and here!" she said as she tossed him something.
He looked down to see a piece of cloth with a strap and said, "Hmmm?"
"Something for your missing eye, I had Fumo fetch it for me." She answered.
"Wait, he's alive?"
"Yes, he's been keeping tabs on his twin brother Seishiro, maybe you could also be of help as well since you came from there, I'm expecting some great things from you Fai. Don't forget that." She told him and left the room again.
He smiled and put removed the bandages from his eye and put the eyepatch on and said, "I will think about my wish Miss Ichihara, I will make it someday."
