Eat You

And so they slept, abandoned by their mother and father for the good of the family. The witch is waiting until they are ready to be eaten and so it entertains itself by feasting on others flesh and making plans.

We wake up still in the blood red room and see Harald sitting across from us with a hungry look in his eyes. But he is still our friend and I won't give up on him! Even if Dragan does. I look at him and he looks back.

"Good morning Brave. I am pleased to see that you did not commit suicide." He says.

"Well why would I? If I want to die I have two weeks and six days left why not make the most of it?"

"You say it like you want to die."

"Well I would rather die than get turned!"

"I see."

He stands up and walks out.

"I didn't mean it like that!"

Harald ignores me and continues down his path. He slams the door in passive-aggressiveness. WHY DOES HE HAVE TO BE THE ONLY TSUNDERE CANNIBAL ALIVE?! I MEAN WHY?! Dragan smiles at me with an amused look like this was the funniest thing he's ever seen. In walks in Yuusei and Crow. Yuusei is wearing a poncho from Crashtown with and Crow is wearing a tank and baggy jeans with orange lines etched on them. Crow walks over to me.

"Heard Godwin left you guys here." Crow says.

"Well what do you expect Crow? He'd have to be a fool to send more operatives after these two got caught." Yuusei tells him.

"Yes, my father did abandon me." Dragan says.

"Yeah." Brave mumbles.

"So you seen Kiryu around? Last time I saw him he and Rudger were going to find people to eat." Crow says.

"You, you guys eat people?" I ask.

"Why yes we do." Yuusei says.

"No, we haven't seen Kiryu." Dragan says.

Crow pouts and Yuusei sighs. They leave the room. Placido and Lucciano come in next dragging a screaming blonde woman. They throw her into the corner. Placido is wearing a loose black shirt with tight grey pants under it and thigh high boots. Lucciano is wearing a pair of black jeans with a grey tank top. Their eyes are still missing. Hey that means that some parts of you don't grow back! Like their eyes and Rudger's arm! Wow they got the short end of the stick didn't they?

"AHAHAHA! Sit there and think about how horrible you are Sherry LeBlanc! You're going to get eaten soon and look just like us! AHAHAHAHA!" Lucciano laughs.

Placido casts a solitary look in her direction and walks away. I walk over to Sherry and place my hand on her shoulder, smiling reassuringly.

"Hey, my name's Brave and we are going to escape. You are coming too." I say.

She looks at me and lets out a haughty laugh.

"Thank you! I thought I was going to get eaten like the Placido and Lucciano! They are the people I worked with in The Illaister Foundation."

She smiles and I smile back.

"Brave now is not the time to be flirting with the pretty girl." Dragan says.

"Aw." I moan.

A few days pass uneventful except for the vampires passing back and forth. However I have a feeling something important is going to happen today.

I watch as Kiryu walks in his fingers entwined with Rudger's. I know for a fact that Crow like Kiryu.

"Hey Dragan look at the happy couple." I say.

He quickly gets the hint as does Sherry.

"Why yes! They are cute!" Sherry squees.

"Ah Uncle I never thought you'd ever have a relationship again." Dragan says.

Kiryu blushes and Rudger chuckles a bit.

"You should tell everybody!" I cheer.

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Rudger asks.

"Yes! Love is a beautiful thing no matter what the circumstance! Don't you want to share it?" I ask.

"Well… yes, but…" Rudger says.

"Come on Rudger-kun! Let's tell people! Besides they'll figure it out on their own." Kiryu whines.

"Oh alright."

They leave and we all smile.

"YES! If all goes well we'll be free far before time's up! Let's start more fights!" I chirp.

And so we start. Lucciano and Placido show up.

"Placido remember Antinomy?" Dragan asks.

"Yes." Placido replies.

"Well why not turn him? You and he can be together forever." Dragan says.

Placido blinks and Lucciano thinks about it.

"Big brother we should do it! We should turn him ourselves and do it how it used to be done! By exsanguination!" Lucciano laughs.

The two run out to make their plans. Aki walks in next going for food.

"You know you are a beautiful woman, I don't know why Yuusei doesn't want you."

Aki glares and walks off. All we have to do is let all these thoughts fester and simmer behind their eyes.

Paradox comes in next. Dragan opens his mouth about to plant thoughts in his head when I cough. Dragan shuts his mouth and Paradox leaves without incident.

"Why didn't we start with him?" Dragan asks.

"Because if we get everyone else then he doesn't matter." I say.

Sherry smiles because she knows why I really did it. The next to come in and be manipulated is Crow and Yuusei.

"Crow because you and I were friends in the academy I have to tell you this, I saw Kiryu and Rudger holding hands and acting like they were you know, together." I say.

Crow and Yuusei share glances.

"We don't believe you." Yuusei says.

"Alright but it's true." I say.

Crow shifts nervously and is visibly upset. He and Yuusei walk out slamming the door behind them. I smile and the other two smile back. We'll get out of here. We can save ourselves. By sowing the seeds of discontent I promise that we will be free and then help Harald. Jack walks in and sits beside Dragan.

"Hello coz. I am having a problem." He says.

"About what?" Dragan asks.

"Crow, I think he likes somebody and I like him."

"Oh yeah, he likes Kiryu."

"WHAT! I told Kiryu that I liked him and he does this anyway!"

Jack stomps off.

"Nice job Dragan. We'll save Harald in no time!" I cheer.

Sherry laughs.

"Yes I will be able to warn the rest of The Illaister Foundation of whatever his plans are." She says.

I will rescue Harald from himself. I don't know what's wrong with him but I'll fix it! Hey he'll be the first foundation vampire! That'd be cool.
