Chapter Four: Beauty and Vampy meets again
"S-she fainted…?" Ruby Moon said nervously.
"What did he do?" Eriol asked angrily, getting Tomoyo from Ruby Moon.
"Yamazaki did nothing. I didn't see him do anything harmful to Miss Tomoyo. He just whispered to her and she then fainted." Ruby Moon said, still nervous from her master's sudden outburst.
"Tomoyo…" Eriol said softly.
"Yes, it's her name." Ruby Moon smiled uncertainly, "It means 'friendly world', isn't it?"
"Yeah…" Eriol said, calmer now, "I'll go inside her mind."
"You'll go…inside? As in, barge in to her dreams?" Ruby Moon asked.
Eriol nodded, "I think Yamazaki did something to test her. He's testing her if she's The One."
"How can he do that?"
"He gave her nightmares and if she does not wake up, she's not The One and she'll eventually die." Eriol explained.
"What? Why did he do that? Miss Tomoyo is so nice." Ruby Moon continued, "And I strongly think that he likes her very much."
Eriol raised one eyebrow, "But he already has a betrothed."
"I guess that is what her charm does." Ruby Moon said stubbornly, "Go inside her dream and save her!"
"Okay." Eriol said and closed his eyes to concentrate. After a few seconds, he, too, lay unconscious.
"Oh my, why did I tell him to go now? Now, I need to carry these two all by myself." Ruby Moon sighed, "I guess a gorgeous and nice mistress is a good enough compensation."
Ruby Moon transported them into the other world.
Eriol found himself in a large room with bright lights. The walls were painted white and all the furniture were painted in pastel colors. He saw Tomoyo standing in front of the curtained window. He walked to her, ready to tap her shoulder, but she turned around. Her long raven hair seemed like dancing around her frame. Beautiful amethyst eyes and a smile were plastered on her enchanting face.
"Hello, I see that you came here to save me. You don't need to worry. Yamazaki didn't give me any nightmares of sort. He just told me about you and what could possibly happen." Tomoyo said softly, "I'm sorry if I was nervous and shocked when you first met me that I haven't introduced myself properly."
"I haven't introduced myself either." Eriol said nonchalantly.
"I'm Daidouji Tomoyo." Tomoyo said softly.
"I'm Hiiragizawa Eriol and in case you don't know I'm the Vamp Prince. Did Yamazaki already tell you that? I'm sure he did. Why are you and Ruby Moon behind the bushes? Ah…never mind." Eriol babbled.
"I never knew you to be so talkative." Tomoyo said.
"Well, we just met just now." Eriol said smartly.
"Right…" Tomoyo continued, "Yamazaki made me unconscious and told me that he needs to test me if I was The One or whatever is that. He just asked me questions and after that, he said that I passed. And we're in the bushes because he helped us get away from the other vampires. I think not all vamps in your troop like you."
"That, I know." Eriol said.
"We need to wake up now." Tomoyo said and added, "I have also developed some powers. Yamazaki taught me how."
"That's nice." Eriol said and extended his hand, "Hold my hand and never let go until I told you to do so. You'll wake up in my world."
"A world of Vampires?" Tomoyo inquired.
"Not only my kind but also other creatures. They'll be good to you." Eriol assured her.
Tomoyo took his hand and gripped it tightly but loosened it a bit when she saw Eriol grimace a little and she muttered an apology.
"It's okay. Ready?" Eriol earned a nod then he closed his eyes and there was darkness.
"I'll see you later…" Tomoyo heard Eriol's voice say from afar.
Tomoyo opened her eyes and saw a pink haired lady with dazzling red eyes beside her. The woman smiled at her tenderly, revealing her fangs.
"I see that you're awake now." The lady said in an all too familiar voice.
"Ruby Moon, is that you?" Tomoyo asked.
