Chapter 6: One big happy twisted family
"You didn't have to come, Nyx." It was clear that Natsuki didn't find pleasant the arrival of the new Master Vampire.
"Sayuri asked me, I didn't have much choice." Nyx stated coldly after pointing the brunette. Both womans glared each other hatefully.
"Now, now why is little Natsuki-chan so hostile with us? How could I not tag along my lovely child if I were to visit my other one?" Nagi teased a little.
"A photo or post card will had been fine." She grumbled not looking away from the black eyes in front of her.
"But then it will get burned or used as one of your aiming –"
"I got it!" she interrupted harshly.
"Natsuki-chan, did you sire a new child or do we have an eavesdropper?" the quiet voice of Sayuri startled Natsuki.
"Shizuru!"
They-y are those people from the painting! She…she is the one Natsuki looked at…
Shizuru felt a little pain from her chest, remembering the gaze Natsuki had given to 'Sayuri' as the other vampire called her. She felt anger and jealously.
But she isn't with Natsuki…she is with that other one…Nyx? Then maybe I have a chance? She thought hopefully.
The Hime then noticed that 'Sayuri' was staring at her. She was about to run when Natsuki noticed her and shouted her name. At the same time, Youko and an awaken Yukino were about to ran into her.
"Shizuru!" the Master vampire rushed to her before Yukino and Youko crushed her –literally. However, Nyx was faster than her and caught Shizuru, then turning her in one fast movement she smiled.
"My, my are you ok?" asked the purple-haired woman smiling. She had one arm holding Shizuru's neck and another around her waist, her black eyes gazing lovely at crimsons.
Oh MY FUCKING GOD! SHE IS FUCKING HOLDING SHIZURU! HOW DARE SHE!
Ara, Ara I might be loosing it, even a stranger can make me blush now.
"Oh, my thank very much Nyx-san." She said holding her red cheek with one hand. Shizuru smiled once she was standing.
"So, Sayuri was right you did eavesdrop." Nyx teased, making the chestnuts-haired woman smile innocently. Then she bowed, "It's ok, after all it was a pretty witch that stared at us," she the winked and whispered quietly before going back to the brunette side, "Nyx is fine, Shizuru-san."
"Then, Shizuru will be fine Nyx." She felt the urge to squeal and feel amused at the new guest but she also notice the hint of jealousy from Natsuki.
"Yukino, Youko…" Natsuki growled, one eye twitching in annoyance "What did I say about Shizuru?"
"Forgive us…but Viola-san –" Yukino tried to apologize but was interrupted by the purple-haired vampire.
"It's ok, come on Natsuki don't be too harsh with your Children." She teased, "after all, I bet Shizuru cast a spell on Yukino. That will explain why she is here. You should feel honored that such beautiful young woman did all this to find you." Nyx noticed something in Arika and her companion's eyes. "Besides Sayuri is tire and I bet Arika, Nina and Erstin are too. So let's talk about this tomorrow, ok?" not caring for a reply, she and the brunette walked out, followed by the three womans.
"Nyx-chan is right, I will see you tomorrow Natsuki-chan" Nagi said smiling the as she passed Shizuru and the others he said. "It's a pleasure to meet someone of the Violas lineage. It was also nice to meet you again, Yukino-chan, Youko-chan."
"Youko, you can't use your lab unless I say so and Yukino, tell Haruka that it will be one week of not seeing each other for not coming back to your room when I dictated the rules." Afterward Natsuki took Shizuru by the hand and walked away.
"Oh man…Midori won't like this."
"Haruka-chan will give me headaches now."
"Did you see her face? It was priceless." Nyx laughed none stop, holding her stomach as she rolled on the bed. "If I new all I had to do was that, then maybe it was worth coming."
"You didn't have to flirt like that, I hate it when you act all prince-like." Sayuri scolded, sitting next to the vampire.
"Is that so?" she pushed the brunette down and gazed at the golden orbs, "you know I did that on purpose, is very un-lady like if I act always as the butch or the cold-hearted bitch type." She leaned to kiss the other woman softly, "she was witch, what did you sense on her?"
"Hime, she definitely felt like a Hime. Yet her powers aren't that developed."
Cursing and grumbling was all Natsuki did once she and Shizuru were back to their room. She was pacing from side to side, the witch gazing at her obviously concerned as she sat at the edge of the bed. Finally the raven haired stopped and sat next to her, sighing defeated.
"I'm sorry…" she apologized, "I shouldn't have acted like that."
"Ara, ara why is Natsuki apologizing?" Shizuru teased, emanating a blush from the vampire.
"Shizuru! I'm being serious, I should have been faster to catch you!"
"Natsuki should not worry, since Nyx was there to catch me." Natsuki then avoided her eyes, suddenly looking angry at the mention of the other vampire, "Why does Natsuki hate Nyx so much?"
It's because of her…it's because she took something dearly to me. She just didn't take my first child but also…she…she also took…the first one to make me feel something.
"It's a sister issue…" she mumbled, gazing at the table, "She is my older sister, in the Sire-Child bound thing. Nagi sired her and me, so it makes us kind of sister in some twisted way."
"Is Natsuki jealous of Nyx?"
"N-no…"
Shizuru moved behind Natsuki, she slipped her arms around her waist and tightened her grip over the older woman. They stayed like this for a time, till sleepiness started to affect them.
"Natsuki should not worry, I'm hers…" she whispered and fell asleep.
The raven haired woman grinned, covering both of them with her body, they fell asleep holding each other arms.
"Good morning, Viola-san, Natsuki-chan." Nagi greeted with his playful smile.
Everyone was sitting on the table, waiting for the last two persons to awake. It was afternoon right now and Shizuru wondered if she had to leave tomorrow, since today was Sunday. Both of the sat in the same sits as yesterday. Meanwhile, Nagi was at the other side of Natsuki as well as her other Children, including Erstin and Arika. On Shizuru's side were: Yuichi, Haruka, Midori, Nina and Rose. Nyx was sitting on the other head of the table. Vampires maids started to walk in serving them a traditional Japanese food and for those who were vampire they were given an extra red liquid sausage. Everyone began eating silently.
"My, my this is really a big family we have now." Nagi teased and smiled at Yuichi, "Reito-kun tastes for men haven't change," she then glanced at Midori, "and it seems Youko-chan is not the only one that has a liking for witches," making her and Natsuki blush, he then stared at Haruka. "I wonder how did Yukino-chan tame such rebellious werewolf like Haruka-san?" however Haruka just twitched her eyes and grumbled silently –true to be told, Yukino had begged her all night with promises of rewards if she behaved.
"I hope you don't mind such mix between us, Sire." Natsuki said, knowing full well what some vampires thought about mixture.
"Do not worry about such silly things, Natsuki-chan" he replied playfully, "After all while my grandchildren are happy I won't mind at all."
"You simply said that because Natsuki, Youko and I got it from you." Nyx muttered but it was heard by everyone.
"I most say, Sayuri-chan have improved a lot with her skills at tea brewing." Nagi complimented, trying to change the subject of his taste in woman.
"Thank you very much, Nagi-san but you shouldn't thank me but the plants who allow me to take it from them." She replied sipping her tea, "It pains the flowers when they are harshly taken, so next time be more careful of where you walk. Flowers are delicate, they are to be treated nice and with respect."
"Of course." he simply smiled as the maid poured some more tea.
"Sayuri-san, could I ask you what kind of tea is this?" Shizuru asked curiously. So she is the one who get this wonderful tea? Hmm she is someone I will very much get to like.
"It Tamaryokucha, a Japanese tea. I hope you like it tastes."
"I do, also I wonder are you the one that sent Natsuki the other type of teas?" Everyone noted that there were no honorifics at the name of the Master vampire.
"Yes, the most recent one was Tiger Hill, a rare Chinese tea."
"It seems Sayuri-san has high taste in tea. I can also sense that you are a witch, wonder why the Headmistress missed you?"
"You notice?" she sounded a little surprise then chuckled, "how foolish of me, of course you will sense my powers."
"Mashiro-san is the Headmistress of that witch school here right?" Nyx asked smiling at seeing her Sire's left eye twitch.
"Yes."
"Well, Mashiro-san hasn't found her for a reason." She sipped her tea and continued, "You see Shizuru. Sayuri is a Rose Master and possess half blood witch. Let's just say that she is a special case, ok?"
"Rose Master?" Midori asked curiously, "I thought the last one died long ago, no offence." She smiled apologetically at Rose.
"Rose Master are pretty private, they are also masters in hiding we don't social much."
"That was an interesting breakfast." Shizuru commented.
After dawn set, Natsuki decided that it was better for Shizuru to go back to the academy. They were currently on Nagi's carriage with Midori.
"I will call it decent." The Master vampire muttered, her arm crossed and looking at the small window.
"You are just saying that since Nyx-kun didn't start to flirt with Viola-san." Midori teased knowingly, electing a giggle from the Hime and blush of the vampire.
"Whatever…" was the last thing said.
Every witch from the school greeted Shizuru once she stepped out of the carriage; enviously eyes watched intensely as Natsuki kissed Shizuru and said her goodbye. Nevertheless, the Master vampire gave a warning glare before leaving.
"Seems Viola-san had a wonderful weekend, didn't she?" Mai teased the chestnuts haired woman. They were walking back to their dorm after shushing the angry and curious fans.
"You might be right, Mai-san." Shizuru simply said and opened her door, she grinned as a single bouquet of Xeranthemum lay next to her lamp table.
Forever yours
Loves you,
Natsuki
Natsuki leaned at the edge of the small tower wall in deep thoughts. She was staring at the bright sky full of stars. The raven haired woman never noticed a shadow walking behind her.
Nyx gazed at Natsuki's back for a long time, her eyes showed regret and sorrow. Subsequently she walked next to her and leaned on the edge of the tower while Natsuki kept her eyes attached to the sky.
"Do you still hate me that much, Natsuki?" asked Nyx painfully, her head leaned back as she gazed at the sky too.
"I did hate you, but this time don't you dare take Shizuru from me. This time if you try anything, I swear I will kill you." She threatened gazing at the black orbs.
"It's been one century since that day…besides Sayuri holds my heart and no one else."
"She did hold mine too…or I thought so."
"Yeah, she got that effect in most…especially both of us."
"Natsuki-chan, Nyx-chan please come meet your new guest!" Nagi called, next to him was Sayuri who didn't seem to have aged one bit. Golden eyes stared in awe as two dark female figures walked down smiling and giggling. Nagi smiled and then said, "Natsuki, Nyx meet Sayuri-san our newest guest and a Rose Master."
"A pleasure to meet both children of Duke Nagi." she greeted politely.
"The pleasure is all ours." The two sisters replied bowing slightly and smiling sweetly.
OMAKE:
Sayuri: Did you get it, Shizuru-san?
Shizuru: Ara, Ara I didn't know such thing.
Sayuri: Hai, they might have got it from Nagi-san but just do that and Natsuki-chan will be at your mercy.
Natsuki: What are you talking about?
Nyx: God, please Rose don't tell me you told her that
Sayuri: -purrs- of cooourrsseee not, love. If you will excuse me, goodnight Shizuru-san, Natsuki-chan –taking a very much blushing Nyx-
Natsuki: Wow, it's hard to see Nyx-oneechan blush like that.

Natsuki: -feels danger- OMG! SHIZURU WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
