Chapter 4: Blood

"Yes, Hinamori Amu, you're right."

I stared at him. Okay, more like gaped at him. This either means that I'm sleeping right now and this is all a dream or everyone is playing a joke on me. Or possibly this is the biggest discovery I have ever made right next to figuring out how to use the TV remote. Long story. Don't ask.

"Did ya get that camera yet?" It took my mind a while to register that he had spoken.

"B-but-"

"Amu-hentai, your knee has probably permanently dented my stomach. How am I going to explain that?" Again, if you need a heater, call me. I jumped up and stumbled over to my bed. I almost made it, but then tripped and pushed a vase over a table. The glass on the floor cut my hands. Ow… I groaned. Great, I'm in a room with a 'vampire' and my arms are covered in blood. I sat up and almost screamed at the closeness of Ikuto's face.

"Blood." Is it just me or has this happened before? "Ikuto-"

"Just a little wouldn't hurt…" I heard him mumbling before he grabbed my hand and brought my finger close to his lips. I froze. What's it like to be bitten? Does it hurt? What happens after? I watched as the space between us began to ebb away. What does blood taste like for him? His eyes looked darker. And beyond reason.

"Get away from Amu-chan, Tsukiyomi Ikuto!" Two figures whooshed by, taking Ikuto with them. Tadase rushed over from his place by the door and quickly wrapped my hand in a cloth. He let out a breath and looked up at me, "Do you know about…us?" Us? I shook my head, "What do you have to do with any of this?"

"I mean do you know what Tsukiyomi Ikuto is?"

"Yeah." So Tadase knew all along. He stood up, "Okay, guys, she knows."

"I could have told you that." Matt said as he rolled his eyes. Yuuki and Nagehiko were on either side of Ikuto and restraining him while he struggle in their grip. Tadase raised a gun thingy to Ikuto's forehead, "It's over, Tsukiyomi Ikuto." He stopped struggling and returned to his normal sanity, "It's only just begun, Kiddy King." The door burst open and two more blurs rushed by. Utau and Yoru stood in front of Ikuto,

"Put it down!"

"Stay back, Vampires, if you know what's good for you!" Them too?!

"Utau, Yoru, you heard him. Stand back." A voice called from the doorway. "But, Kukai-"

"I said, stand back!" The two glanced worriedly at Ikuto then moved hesitantly away. I watched in horror as Tadase tightened his grip on the trigger. Kukai snapped his fingers and Yuuki and Nagehiko got up and started dancing in the way of Tadase's gun.

"Wh-what the heck!?" I stared as Yoru high-fived Kukai while they laughed. Why are they dancing in front of a gun? It's not the best place to be. In the line of fire.

"Move out of the way, Idiots!" Tadase yelled while they just continued, "We can't! literally!"

"Fine. Have it your way." He pulled the trigger and the laughing stopped. I felt light headed as the blood splattered around. I acted without thinking. The last thing I saw was Ikuto hurling himself at Tadase. Then everything went black.

TBC…
