Takano watched from on top a tree as his Priest was giving a prayer.
It was day right now and he could see the beauty the night failed to give the ancient Church. The Church was on top of a hill surrounded with trees and flowers. It was beautiful how they designed the Church, made of smooth stone, artist carved figures and patterns in every inch of stone visible. The Church was old but well taken care of.
Inside he could see how artists painted Angel's and images of Heaven in the ceiling. The roof of the Church was mostly made of glass letting day enter inside the church.
Right now he was watching his Priest giving a prayer through the large glass window in the front of the Church.
He found out that his name was Onodera Ritsu. He has lived in that Church since he was a boy. Originally he was an Orphan adopted by the owners of this church.
It's been a month since he first met Ritsu. After he was saved that night in the forest by one of his men he had been coming here often.
"What do you want?" Takano asked.
"Why do you keep coming here Takano? We have pressing issues to concern about." Yokozawa answered behind him. He was currently leaning against the tree trunk.
"I already did my part of the deal; it's up to them to decide what they want to do about the situation."
Yokozawa stayed silent.
Takano rolled his eyes.
Takano was a wealthy business man in Tokyo. He was also head leader of their people. It was his duty to ensure their safety from Rouge Vampires.
Rouge Vampires have been breaking laws by creating new born Vampires and then leaving them alone without a guide. And because of that the new Vampires have been killing in cold blood in order to drench the thirst.
Takano didn't care that these Vampires wanted to be individuals and be free from the laws but leaving new born Vampires and have them risk their identity from humans was a serious issue.
Takano already warned them if they kept it up their heads would decorate his wall.
"You know that they won't listen."
"That's why I can't wait to kill me some Rouge's."
Takano never took his eyes off his Priest. Over the past few weeks he seen how shy and gentle his Ritsu was. He was always out helping others.
Jealously flared in Takano's breast; he wanted to be Ritsu's number one focus. Only him.
"Takano…I don't like that look in your eyes." Yokozawa said, eyeing how Takano's eyes turned red with intense emotion.
Takano smirked. "I just want him."
"Well you cant. It's forbidden to drink from humans."
"Not what I meant." Takano said softly. His eyes were devouring the small man. He wanted to touch, explore, taste. Already his fangs were aching.
Yokozawa scowled. "Not even for sex either. We are ten times stronger than humans. You'll crush the poor man with your unnatural strength."
"Got that covered." He said absently.
Yokozawa frowned as a suspicion arose.
"You're not planning to…"
Takano wasn't listening. His gaze was raptured on him. Ritsu bowed and took a seat. Takano scowled. He couldn't see him anymore.
"Hey, Takano!"
Takano finally looked to Yokozawa for the first time and frowned. "Why are you dressed all fancy?" Yokozawa was dressed in a black tux.
Yokozawa rolled his eyes. "The party has started and everyone is waiting for you to show, idiot!"
Bored Takano looked away. "Not going to go."
"Knew you were going to say that. Chiaki, Yukina! Take him now!"
Both men jumped out of nowhere, though Takano knew they were already there, and grabbed Takano by the arms and dragged him off the tree.
Takano knew that this party was important that was why he let them drag him off. He really had no choice.
With one last glance at Ritsu he let them drag him off.
-Ritsu
Night had fallen and Ritsu was the last one in the Church.
He loved nights like these. With the moon shining brightly through the large glass window and beautiful baby blue puffy clouds surrounding it. The air was fresh with upcoming rain.
It was times like these that Ritsu could easily relax and enjoy his life.
Slowly Ritsu blew out candle after candle surrounding the Church. Life was good for him. He loved how everyday he could witness miracle after miracle with those who had broken hearts or broken dreams. He wished his heart could easily be healed as they were.
Almost fifteen years ago his family was killed in a car crash. He was the only one who survived. As a boy he seeked solace through the Church up the hill. He soon fell in love with it and came here every day. The family of the Church saw this and adopted him. He did love his new family but the ache and loneliness was still there.
Ritsu signed. Every day was the same. He wondered what kind of life was outside the Church. He really didn't like to go out; there was nothing out there for him.
But what if…?
The front door suddenly opened causing gushing wind to blow out the rest of the candles. Darkness descended on him, the moon was the only given light to help Ritsu navigate through the darkness.
Ritsu's eyes widened to see a woman stumbling to him.
"He…Help me…"
Ritsu ran to her. He was shocked to see blood all over the woman. "Easy now, I got you." Ritsu tried to calm. He had to get her in one of the rooms so that he could call the police.
"Get…Get away from me!" The woman started sobbing.
"Please ma'am, we need you to get some attention."
"No! Don't touch me! I'm a monster!" Ritsu tried to calm her down but she was pushing him off. The woman had a black drench coat and blond hair. She looked up at Ritsu and he was startled to see her crimson red eyes were glowing.
How…?
The woman attacked him.
Ritsu could perceive nothing then. He felt his head become lighter with each second. He couldn't move his body. His neck burned.
What's going on…?
Ritsu heard a roar. Then a loud snap.
He felt himself being picked up from his neck but couldn't see the persons face. His vision was a blur.
"Don't worry. I'll take care of you."
Something sweet was poured down his throat.
What was that?
Soon his body started to burn as if he was thrown into flames. Ritsu screamed.
His skin was surely melting away now. Was he in Hell?
Why? What did he do?
Tears ran down his eyes. What was going on?
Soon he was gratefully consumed in nothingness.
