Body's Requiem
Leon was in the dark.
The air around the former knight was cool and damp. Moisture was sticking to the wall beside him and was lying somewhere on the floor. Something sturdy and boxed shaped surrounded him, but strangely it didn't make him feel claustrophobic. All of his armor was stripped off and his hands were folded on his stomach. The thing was, Leon could tell all of this without opening his eyes. What is going on? He shivered as a draft flew by his neck and shoulders. Memories and promises rushed through his mind and he shivered again. Blue eyes fluttered open, his vision clouded pitch black. He called out to the one person who he knew would be there.
"Mathias?" He whispered. Cool lips were on his at once, gentle but firm. Leon moaned as they work to pry his mouth open and a warm tongue invaded. He found himself kissing back without really thinking. All his breath was being sucked from him and then ice cold fingers brushed back his blond hair from his face. When he was released, he took a giant breath of air as if he was just given life again. A pale hand lifted his head and he was once again kissed.
"My love, I'm here." Mathias whispered against those pale luscious lips. He had heard Leon's whisper from across the room. It has been so long since the former knight fell into slumber that he began to get worried. His whole being rejoiced when he heard that sweet voice call his name. He had laid Leon to rest in his coffin centered in Walter's former room. He had removed the chipped pieces of armor from that beautiful body and waited. The blond had been asleep for almost two entire days.
"What....what have you done to me? Why?" Leon's troubled thoughts came out in fragments. All his senses were on high and he could detect the slightest movement, like the ant crawling near the wall. His beautiful eyes finally focused on Mathias' face. The other man had bags under his eyes liked he hadn't slept for days. There was also a worried glint gazing at him. It pierced the inner depths of his soul and he found himself to be breathing forcefully. Leon was confused.
"Do you not remember?" Mathias smiled sadly. Leon closed his eyes again. Flashes of teeth and pain assaulted him.
"You! You were a vampire and didn't tell me!" Leon's gaze turned accusing. "Why Mathias? Why? You are just like the monster who took Sarah!" His voice cracked at the end of the sentence. What had happened to Sarah? All this time he'd been laying here, anything could of happened by now.
"I am not a monster, nor did I have anything to do with Sarah." Mathias' own stare hardened. "Walter killed Sarah. There was nothing I could do. Before I even realized he had her, I was trying to find you." He cupped Leon's cheek. "You went ahead when I told you I thought the monsters took her. I never imagined you'll run after her strait away and abandon the company. And since I couldn't find you, I went ahead with my plan and killed Walter." Crystal tears dripped from blue jewels as Mathias finished his explanation.
"So Sarah is already..."
"Yes, she is dead." Mathias said sadly. He didn't like to see Leon in pain.
Leon took a shuddering breath. "S-so all this time...? I've been fighting for nothing?"
Mathias frowned. "If you mean because she was already dead, then yes. But, without you I would not have had a chance to kill Walter." Leon closed his eyes. His breathing picking up speed. Mathias shifted Leon in his arms as he climbed into the coffin with the newly born vampire.
Leon tried to still his chest and stop the tears from flowing, but that made the pain worse. "How? Why? DEAR GOD WHY?!" He screamed. The former knight let all composure go. He had been too late for Sarah. She was already gone. He grabbed onto his hair, pulling. Mathias hugged Leon as he cried. Huge shivers wracked the new vampire's body as he lamented on Sarah. All Mathias could do was hold him. If Leon ever found out that Walter took Sarah with his knowledge he'd never forgive him.
"Shh, my love, no more tears." Mathias cooed.
The shaking stopped awhile later with Leon leaning his head against Mathias'. His arms were wrapped around his former tactician's back and his eyes were a deep navy blue. "Why her? Why not me?" The lost lover whispered. His betrothed was killed before he even realized it.
"I do not know Leon." Mathias kissed the blond's cheek. "But now you are mine and I am yours for eternity. Together we will walk in darkness." Leon said nothing for a few minutes when more jewels of water started to come out his eyes.
"Mathias I am tired."
"I know."
