As Kazashi started to catch up, she wondered if she would like her room.

Reiji came to a door. "Welcome to your new home."

He turned the door knob and pushed open the door. But once the color caught Kazashi's eye, she had a disapproved look on her face.

Reji noticed. "I take it the color is not to your liking?" he asked.

"It's just I'm not a fan of pink. Is there any way we can paint it blue or something?"

He thought before saying, "I'll see what I can do."

So as soon as Reiji went inside and closed the door, Kazashi leaned against the wall and waited. She really hoped she didn't run into the vampires anytime soon. Sure she could probably defend herself, but for how long? All those years of training and the one called Kanato was too fast for her to defend herself.

'Maybe Yui knows about any ways to defend yourself? Maybe she and I can protect each other? I wonder where she is?'

Speaking of which, Yui was walking down the hall. She didn't seem to notice Kazashi so when Kazashi called out her name, she jumped up.

"Oh. Kazashi, it's you. Why are you just waiting in the hall?"

"Reiji's trying to see if he can change the color in my room."

"Oh. That's nice. While he's doing that, how about we hang out in my room?"

Kazashi shrugged. "Ok."

'This can be a chance for us to get to know each other.' Kazashi thought. 'I wonder what she's like. She seems pretty nice, but shy.'

When they arrived in Yui's room, they sat on the bed. Then before Kazashi could say anything, Yui started. "I bet you're curious about me and the brothers."

Kazashi nodded.

"Well, I arrived here a while ago. Much like you, I'm a sacrificial bride. All those myths about vampires and churches not mixing well are lies. Vampires' only weakness are certain weapons designed specifically for killing them."

"Such as?"

"Well, Subaru has a dagger. He tried to give it to me telling me to use it and run, but I wouldn't."

"Why? Why did you stay?" Kazashi asked with confusion in her voice.

"Because, I found a picture of me as a baby with my father. I wanted to know why so I stayed."

"Yui? Is it really so horrible here?" Kazashi paused. "Wait! I had a brother! Did he get sent to a place like this, too. Is he going to be vampire food, too?"

"I'm sorry, but I don't know about your brother." Yui answered, looking sad.

Kazashi seemed to completely change moods.

"I can't believe we trusted Karlhienz! I should have went in with him. We should have only agreed if we stayed together!" she angrily yelled.

She then stared at her bandaged hand. "Karlhienz promised he wouldn't hurt us. We had a blood pact."

Yui gasped, then leaned over to Kazashi and pulled in for a hug. "It'll be ok. It won't be that bad. I'm sure your brother will be fine."

Kazashi scoffed and pulled out of the hug. "What makes you so sure?"

Yui thought for a minute. "Because, we have to have faith. If I survived, I know you can, too."

Kazashi sighed and ran a hand through her hair. However before Kazashi could say anything else, Reiji appeared. "Your room is ready."

"So soon?"

"Yes. Unlike you mortals, us vampires have super speed and generally get work done faster."

Kazashi got up and followed Reiji back to her room. When she got there, she couldn't help but feel relieved that it was now painted blue.

Now that she got past the color, she got a good look at the room. It was a gorgeous room with a large white and gold wardrobe, a writing desk with a chair covered in velvet, huge flawless windows with satin drapes, an enormous and rather comfortable looking bed, a dressing table with a mirror framed in shining gold, and the ceiling was painted like a starry sky. The room was perfect, she loved it.

"It's... beautiful."

Reji turned to her. "Well of course. We are after all vampires."

Kazashi rolled her eyes. "You really believe vampires are that much better than humans, don't you?"

Reiji looked down at Kazashi with a look that evidently said: "Is that even a valid question?"

Reiji said nothing else and bowed a bit, he seemed like the only mature one in this household. Well, as far as mature for a teenager will go, it is kind of strange that they are all brothers, they are nothing alike and all look different.

"Well, I will leave you to settle down... If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask."

Even if what Reiji said was very kind and generous, his glare and cold expression didn't fail to say otherwise. He walked out of the room, leaving Kazashi to herself. She removed her green army-print jacket and hung it on the back of a chair which was pushed into the desk. She took in all the events that have happened, who knew that everything could change drastically in such a short period of time.

She couldn't call this a miracle, not all of the brothers were tolerable and she was separated from the only family she had left, her brother. Though, when given an opportunity like this, you need to take advantage and make the most of it because everything could fall apart or just turn around one day.

It felt nice to be able to relax and finally take a breather, especially after this-

"Kazashi, dinner's ready- Oh! I'm very sorry, I must've disturbed you!"

Yui had a panicked expression, she stood in the doorway and looked like she had run a marathon. Poor girl, it was like she was forced into hard labor once brought to this mansion of pure nightmare. Well, not all nightmare, there were a few beautiful things buried within this place.

"It's alright, Yui, no need to worry... I was feeling hungry anyway, I'll be down in a moment."

Yui must have been scarred terribly here to feel that announcing dinner to someone would get her in trouble, what have these boys done to this girl?

The dining room was decorated with lovely furniture and the table had clean and winkle-less tablecloths spread about it. It seemed like everything was always freshly polished, most likely Reiji's doing. Yui had already set down Kazashi's serving since she was a bit "late" to dinner, the brothers all ate in silence and Yui was staring down at her food, poking at the freshly cooked shrimp and spring rolls.

"Look who decided to join, Teddy... We don't like tardy people, do we?"

Kanato whispered as he sent a glare her way while making Teddy mimic a slow shake of the head. Kazashi sat down at her seat and didn't bother giving Kanato the reaction he wanted, which resulted in an animalistic growl from the purple-haired triplet. Kanato clicked his tongue and went back to playing with his food, well, more like stabbing and completely spoiling it with his fork.

Kazashi looks up as she hears metal hitting the glass and sees Kanato stabbing his food, he had a twisted expression. His eyes were clouded over and he had a wide toothy smile, Kazashi felt a shiver go down her spine and couldn't stand looking at Kanato.

"Reiji, do you mind if I eat elsewhere, like my room?"

"Hm, what's wrong?"

"The way Kanato is eating... It makes me sick."

She heard small snickers and laughs coming from across the table and saw Ayato, Laito, and Subaru watching the scene unfold. Reiji seems to only now notice Kanato's disturbing acts and sends a sharp glare at the purple-haired triplet.

"Kanato, you are not a wild animal... So don't eat like one."

"You're never bothered when I do that. Why the hell are you suddenly annoyed by me doing this? Are you going soft for that dreadful excuse for a Human?!"

Kazashi's face twisted from an irritated look to a death glare as she pointed her fork at Kanato, who also, stood up and growled at Kazashi. They began to shoot insults back and forth, creating a show for Subaru, Laito, and Ayato. Yui sat and stared at Kazashi in admiration, she never saw someone so brave, she could never stand up to Kanato like that. Shu was asleep in his chair playing music, his plate was surprisingly empty, he was missing out on quite the show.

"Both of you, cut it out! Where are your manners at the table?"

"But-"

"No 'buts', sit down and eat!"

Kazashi and Kanato sat down before they angered Reiji any further. Kazashi took a bite and the amazing sensation of the food hitting her tongue struck the hunger that had been masked over with thoughts all this time, she began to eat, enjoying the delicious and almost perfectly cooked meal. At home, meals were never like this, there wasn't such delicious food and they wouldn't eat as a family.

The Sakamaki household began to feel almost like a real home, somewhere that Kazashi can come home to and say "I'm Home" and not have to listen to constant arguing. Though, of course, there will always be reminders that this wasn't really home.

"Excuse me." Kazashi said politely as she stood up from her chair, her plate was empty and only had the faint marks of grease and heat from the food she just ate on her plate.

"Thank you, Yui, it was delicious."

Kazashi sent a smile at Yui before walking out of the dining hall, all she could think about was a nice hot bath in her new tub. She hasn't had a proper bath since running away from home, as she made her way up the steps to her room. She glanced back and saw Subaru walking out of the mansion, she was very curious and wanted to follow, but right now her muscles ached and she needed to relax.

An hour or so later, Kazashi finished her short bath, now she wanted to find Subaru. She went straight toward the garden, not only because she knew Subaru was most likely there but also because she enjoyed the view of the beautiful greenery and colors of roses.

The shrubbery and plants were lined up like a maze but the plants weren't high enough to cover your view of what was ahead. The different patterns, colors, and types of flowers didn't fail to amaze Kazashi.

"What are you doing here?"

The familiar cold voice of Subaru could be heard, even if he gave off a cold demeanor and tough facade, there was always going to be softness deep down. Kazashi stared into his eye that wasn't covered by his silver hair, it shined and reflected the light of the sky.

"I came to see you... I was bored."

"Go be bored somewhere else!"

"Why are you being so rude?"

"Rude? I have every right to be rude, you keep following me."

"I am not-"

"Tch, just shut up... You can stay, just don't be annoying."

Kazashi nodded and smiled, finally getting through to the cold Subaru. She followed close to him, her eyes scanning all the different lively and beautiful flowers. She was so absorbed in their beauty, that she didn't notice a certain Vampire staring at her, tracing her every feature and observing her every movement.

"Do you like flowers?"

"Hm?"

"I said, do you like flowers?"

Kazashi turned her attention away from the flowers and back to Subaru, she nodded and gave a small smile.

"Well, yeah..."

"Me, too..."

Subaru seemed to suddenly become sad or just quiet, Kazashi couldn't tell but he definitely didn't seem like himself. What a strange character, hardcore and scary one moment, soft and quiet the next.

"Subaru, you and your brothers all look different-"

"It's none of your business, I try to open up to you and start a conversation but then you just ask questions!"

"What-"

Before Kazashi could even finish, Subaru had disappeared. It was obvious he had family problems, do they have different parents? Kazashi thought about asking Reiji but what if he reacted the same? She didn't want to get on their bad side and considering how Subaru reacted, imagine how the others would if she asked that question.
