HEY! SORRY FOR THE LATE UPDATE! THANKS FOR READING AND HAVE FUN AND STAY HAPPY!

I DO NOT OWN BLOOD PLUS!

"But… we killed them." She stutters

"This one's with an old friend..."

Her full red lips form a straight thin line as soon as he says this. Her eyes are boring into his.

"Who?" She questions with a stern look gracing her features.

"Solomon Goldsmith."

"But you were joking about the man earlier."

"Sometimes you must turn your problems into jokes." He smiles warmly at her but his eyes do not match his other facial expressions meant to soothe the angered queen.

"If there is a war Kai, there is nothing to be joking about. For if the jokes go too far the blood spilled as a result will be on our hands." Her face remains without any interpretable meanings.

"I am sorry Saya, I just had imagined you laughing again, and I wanted to create that into reality." His facial features fall into a thoughtful position as he stares off into the direction of the snow-covered mountains.

She does not respond but her eyes stay trained on his face as her gaze traces his jawline with her eyes. She watches him grit his teeth in thought. He takes notice of her attentions and she slowly turns her head forward to look towards their destination.

"It hasn't changed." She states as they approach the bar their family owned.

"It's the only thing we have left to remember Dad and Riku by." Kai grimly responds to the dark haired queen.

He sees the girl approaching before she notices.

"Kai! Mao shot me again!" It's only now her mahogany eyes zone into the female mirror image of her late brother. The only difference in the young woman is that she sports a matching pair of Diva's unique eyes.

"Who's this?" The teenage girl asks accusingly as she stares at her uncle and her manicured finger points toward the fellow female chiropteran.

"This is Saya." He doesn't flinch, but stares down the chiropteran queen who stands in front of him.

"No she's not." She responds as her eyes glance over the elder queen.

"She awoke late, Kanade."

"I thought that Van and Julia had concluded she had died during hibernation."

"They had, but she still awoke. As you know Kanade, we may believe we know everything of our species, but we still have much to learn in my opinion."

"I'm well aware of your opinions Kai, you forget that I have to live with them daily." Kanade snapped without taking her now ever so slightly glowing eyes off the queen, she has learned to control their vividness over the years so she could retain her human appearances.

"May I speak?" Saya questions the younger queen with hints of confusion and anger.

"Fine by me." Kanade mutters as she notices the queen's glowing red eyes and intimidating stance of an alpha female.

"Thank you." The elder red queen replies as she regains composure. "Kai is correct, I am Saya, the first documented red queen. Your mother was my sister Diva the first blue queen, am I correct?" She states to the younger queen who now has toned down her unruly behavior.

"That is correct. And I understand you knew my father, also. His name was Riku Miyagusuku." The younger queen responds with more dignity than one would normally expect from a mere blue princess. She shall earn her title as queen if Saya ever passes.

"Yes, your father was very dear to me. He was not only my chevalier, but he was also my brother. Though adopted we shared a very strong sibling bond." Saya's eyes fade from red back to their more humane tint at the thought of her fairly recently passed brother.

"I have heard many things about you, Saya. Your main weapon was a sword, was it not?"

"It was. And because of the fact you are questioning me on the subject I assume that yours is not."

"No. My weapon of choice is bow and arrow, whereas my sister, Hibiki, her choice of weapon is an array of throwing and hunting knives she keeps on her at all times. We are always prepared and a result of that we must have our weapons ready at any moment. If that wretch of a chiropteran they assume deserves the name of Goldsmith comes near us… we can easily kill him. Especially now more than ever, now that we have certainty that you have joined our side of the battle, Saya. We can win this war. But only with your help."

"Lets do this." Saya agrees as the younger queen smirks when she envisions a future without her 'Uncle Solomon.'
