Chapter Seven: Trust and Betrayal
Kai smiled and grabbed their pieces of cake. He handed the cake to the two males before he told Latanya and Miyavi congratulations and excused himself, Shiro, and Uruha for the evening. Latanya smiled, "Thanks Kai-kun and have a safe trip!" she said smiling at her friend. Kai smiled back and gathered Shiro and Uruha as they left the reception.
Ruki sighed as he sat in Kai's car with Uruha in the front seat. He watched the sights of the city pass by quietly. Uruha had sat, spurring conversation with Kai when he could. Kai tried his best to follow the conversations whenever he could. In the old abandoned part of town, the female furies drug an unconscious Aoi, whom they had figured out to be the dream seer of the trio of rebellious vampires, down a dusty tiled hallway that had belonged to an old Sanitarium. Ruki sighed as his thoughts drifted off to Aoi. His head began to swarm with thoughts of the older man and he almost broke into tears right there.
Uruha glanced over his shoulder at Shiro and put a hand on Shiro's leg, "Don't, Shiro. We will be alright." He said offering a smile to the other man. Kai sighed and watched out the window while the two talked. Back at the church the reception had ended a couple of hours early leaving the Bride and Groom with some time to themselves. Latanya sighed as she sat down in a chair removing her high heels, "Ugh….i'm wiped…."she mumbled to herself as she glanced around the now desolate room. Miyavi smiled as he played with a little figure from the cake, examining it closely, trying to see the similarities in himself and it.
Ruki smiled at Uruha. He knew the man was trying to cheer him up and, god, he was doing his best, but his mind just didn't want to be cheered up. It wanted Aoi and, he damned himself quietly for being so goddamn selfish. After all, Uruha had lost his loved one too and the man still had his goofy smile in place. Ruki respected Uruha greatly for being able to hold his head high while his spirit floated down below.
Latanya smiled and laughed at Miyavi, "You're so silly." she said smiling at her husband as she got up and walked over to where he was. "We never got our dance." She said as she smiled down at him. A man watched the two from the rafters, he had hidden his presence quite well so that no one would be able to feel him in the room. Miyavi smiled at her as he made the little figure dance and then stood up. "May I have this dance?" he questioned with a smile.
Ruki watched the sites going by quietly. Kai looked over at Ruki and Uruha, he felt bad for both of them; they both had lost someone they had cared for. Of course he understood, he still had some feelings for Miyavi, but those would pass with time. Latanya smiled and took his hand, "Of course Monsieur." She said as she moved closer to him as some music played from the sound system in the room. He smiled and took her hand as he began to dance with her.
Latanya returned the smile as she moved along with him, "I love you." She whispered as she leaned against him somewhat. She enjoyed his warmth and the happy feeling she got whenever she was around him. Kai looked up to the sky as it started to allow rain to fall over the fully lit up city of Tokyo, Japan. God what he wouldn't do to be in someone's arms; those arms that held him once before but now were holding someone else comfortably. Ruki sighed. "Kai-kun, are we there yet?" He asked in a quiet tone of voice. Uruha sighed as he messed with his hair out of a bored and calming habit.
Kai blinked and looked over at Ruki, "Huh?" He questioned blinking a bit, he had been so lost in thought he hadn't heard Ruki's question. The man up in the rafters smirked as he unsheathed a dagger and tossed it towards the couple dancing by themselves. Latanya glanced sideways catching the object in her peripheral vision and quickly pulled Miyavi out of the way, making them both loose their balance ending with her on the floor underneath him as the dagger edged itself into the linoleum floor where they had once stood. Miyavi glared at the man. "Who are you!?" he demanded as he stepped in front of Latanya, protectively.
Ruki sighed. "'Mother', you need to listen as your 'children' talk to you." He said in a chiding tone. Uruha smiled some at the two men. Kai sighed some, "Gomenasai, Ruki-kun." He said offering a small smile to the man, "We're here." he said motioning to Ruki's penthouse apartment building. The man smirked and jumped down, a long black cloak enshrouded his form hiding his face, "My name is of no importance to you." He replied to Miyavi's question with a cold remark.
Latanya stayed behind Miyavi, "His aura…I know that aura…" she mumbled to herself as she watched the man but knew she shouldn't move or something bad might happen to either of them. Miyavi glared. "Well then, go fuck off somewhere." he said with a glare to the man.
Ruki smiled at Kai. "Thank you, 'Mother', for the ride." He said with a smile to Kai as he got out. "Uruha, you can stay here with me if you need a place to crash." He said to the older man with a smile. Uruha smiled and nodded as he waved goodbye to Kai before climbing out of the car. The cloaked figured moved forward and appeared in between Miyavi and Latanya. He smirked down at Latanya, "My, my, you've grown up to be such a lovely young woman, Latanya." He said as he pushed the hood down to reveal a man with silver hair and deep abyss filled eyes.
Latanya gasped, "D-Damion?" she stammered as she backed away from him, "No…Damion is dead…you're not him…go away!" she said covering her ears as he spoke once more, "Awe…seems you don't understand…I didn't die that day…I was only reborn." He said walking closer to her. Miyavi stepped in between them both and grasped Damion's arm so hard and with such anger, it was burning Damion's wrist.
Ruki sighed as he unlocked the door. "Excuse the mess. I haven't been home to clean because I've been... elsewhere." He said to the other man as they stepped into the house. The place looked completely immaculate and in no way considered messy by anyone... except Ruki. Uruha blinked. "Ano…compared to my place…this is like spotless…" he said in awe at the cleanliness of the penthouse apartment.
Damion stopped and looked at his wrist then to Miyavi, "Why such hate?" he questioned tilting his head some then smirked, "Why don't you tell him Latanya, that you still love me…you can't forget about me." He said as he listened to the female mumble to herself, "No…it's not true…shut up!" she said shaking her head no in response to his words. Miyavi glared as he pinned the man against the wall and looked straight into his eyes. "You know, I could kill you now, but I prefer not to kill such trash." He said with a glare as he still gripped the man's wrist and held the other arm against the man's neck, restricting his airway.
Damion smirked and chuckled dryly, "You're so simple Miyavi… or should I call you Copper?" he questioned which made Latanya look up; she hadn't heard that name is so long. Miyavi glared and pushed harder on the man's airway. "That's not my name anymore." he said with a glare.
Ruki smiled some as he scratched his head. "Well, it's messy to me." He said to the taller man with a small chuckle. Uruha smiled, "Ah, well you have a very nice place." he said as he moved to sit on the couch. Damion smirked and became a shadow and moved away from Miyavi as he slowly became solid once more in front of Latanya. His grin widened some more as he placed a hand under her chin pulling her forward into a kiss.
Latanya tried to push him off but found herself pinned against the wall on the other side of the room; she struggled against the grip trying to regain her airway which was failing due to Damion's strong grip. Miyavi glared and, in an instant, was over behind Damion, throwing the other man across the room.
Ruki smiled as he looked at Uruha. "I'll go and prepare the guest room." He said with a smile as he went off, down the hallway, to make the guest bed and prepare the guest bathroom with needed necessities. Uruha slowly followed him and once they were in the room he slowly shut the door, "So this is your guest bedroom?" he questioned looking around in awe at the large room.
Damion smirked as he stopped himself from hitting the wall, "She will come back to me, Copper." He said before he vanished into a shadow and vanished from the vicinity. Latanya slowly got to her feet sighing a bit. Miyavi glared at the wall where the man had been. "I think that it's best that we leave now." He said as he turned to her with a placid look on his face.
Ruki smiled as he went over to the drawers and took out the folded sheets and bed covers and sat them neatly onto the floor beside him. "Yeah, this is the guest bedroom." He said as he turned to the other man and smiled. He then got up from the floor and unfolded the sheets and started to put them onto the bed while humming a little tune Aoi had sung before. Uruha walked over slowly and slid his arms around Ruki slowly.
Latanya nodded and walked over reaching up and touched Miyavi's cheek, "Don't look at me like that, please." She said as a rather pained expression was mixed with her facial features, on the inside she was already crying but she refused to cry on the outside it was just how she had become over the years. Miyavi sighed. "Gomenasai." he said to her with an apologetic look on his face.
Ruki stopped for a second, his face starting to fluster. "Uruha, wha-what are you doing?" He said as he looked at the other man. "You have someone as do I, don't complicate things..." Ruki said sadly as he looked to the floor, rubbing his own arm awkwardly. "It's not complicating things, its making up for something that isn't present at the moment." He whispered to Ruki.
Latanya smiled up at Miyavi and kissed his forehead, "Don't apologize to me, you know that." she said offering a smile as she interlocked her hand with his. Miyavi smiled at her. "Alright, let's go home." He said to her with a smile.
Ruki flushed brightly. "But Uruha... it's late and I-I want to go to bed." Ruki said as he fumbled with the sheets in his hands. Uruha smiled, "Alright…Ruki." he said adding a small ring to the way he said the other males name as he moved towards the bathroom. Latanya smiled and nodded, "Yes, lets…I'm exhausted." she said yawning a bit. Miyavi smiled at her and led her to the door with a loving and warm look on his face.
Ruki sighed as he sat down on the floor, surrounded by the mass of sheets and bedding. He let out a slow and pained sigh. His body longed for Aoi as did his heart and yes, he did want someone to fill that void but, he just didn't feel ready to do so yet... No matter how much his body wanted to do so... He could feel his eyes filling up with tears and he got up, focusing his mind on the task of making the bed to distract his body from the painful things before him.
Uruha cursed himself, yes he longed for Reita so badly it hurt to just think about it. It pissed him off to think he could have prevented what had happened…but he didn't. He let out a long sigh as he turned the water on slowly. Latanya smiled and stretched as she felt the cool night air brush against her bare arms. She loved the night, not because of Miyavi but because she had always had a love for the evening hours, it was just something that was a part of her. Miyavi smiled at her and helped her into the car, like a true man.
Ruki finished making the bed and setting out clothes and bedtime things for Uruha and left the room. He went to his room and lay on top of the bed. As he did so, he could smell Aoi's scent on the covers. His heart ached and, he had to get up. So, he went into the kitchen after changing into his night clothes and sat down in a chair at the kitchen table. He pulled his legs into the chair, and wrapped his arms around his legs as he laid his head onto his knees.
Latanya smiled at Miyavi, "Do you think Shiro-kun will be alright?" she questioned as she looked up at her husband; she brushed some loose strands from her face and smoothed her gown out. Uruha finished his shower and sighed as he picked up his night clothes, he didn't want to sleep alone tonight, it would just tear him apart, he knew that. Ruki stared at the kitchen cabinets blankly as he sat there, his mind wandering. Miyavi looked at Latanya and smiled. "Of course, he's a tough cookie. He'll be just fine." Miyavi replied with a smile to her.
Latanya shrugged some, "I just get this feeling…that something inside is bothering Shiro-kun…" she said as she glanced down at her lap some before placing a hand on her stomach lightly, "Do you think I'll make a good mom?" she questioned trying to change the subject somewhat. Uruha just collapsed onto the soft bed peering into the darkness of the lonely desolate room. Ruki couldn't sleep, he could tell that he was going to be staying up for sleepless nights once more... Miyavi blinked. "You just pulled a 360 in this conversation." He said as he looked at her funnily.
Latanya stuck her tongue out at him, "Well would you like to continue discussing Shiro-kun?" she questioned as she laughed a bit as the driver smiled at them as he pulled out and onto the main road. Uruha just stared at the desolate dark shadow enshrouded walls; a figure seemed to form in the darkness. He blinked rubbing his eyes as he moved to sit up.
The figure formed into that of a man who smiled at Uruha, "I know where Reita resides, I can take you to him." he said smirking as he held his hand out to Uruha. The blonde male moved to stand up as he eyed the man suspiciously, "And why exactly should I trust you?" he questioned raising an eyebrow at the man. Ruki was snapped back to the present as he felt an evil presence in the house. His eyes flashed red and he jumped up and bolted down the hall to the guest room where Uruha stayed. His eyes were back to normal but, he opened the door to the room and looked at Uruha and then to the man in the shadows. "You were not invited. OUT!" Ruki said with a glare as he walked over and stepped in front of Uruha.
Miyavi blinked and smiled. "No, that was just an unexpected twist in the conversation." He said to her with a smile. Latanya smiled and laughed but her smile faded as the driver slammed on the breaks, a truck bolted towards them not showing any signs of stopping. Uruha looked at Ruki and glared, "I don't need protection.." he said pushing Ruki out of the way and walking towards the man, "You say you know where Reita is…so take me to him.." he said as the man smirked placing a hand on Uruha's shoulder drawing him into the darkness.
Ruki watched in horror at what the older blonde had done. "No! Uruha, don't trust him! He's lying just to get you to go with him!" Ruki pleaded with reason to the older blonde, the only precious person close to him and he was going to lose him to the enemy. Miyavi wrapped his arms around Latanya and grabbed hold of the driver, transporting all of them out and onto safe ground away from the area.
Latanya held onto Miyavi as they were transported out of the car and onto the safe ground, the driver just sat on the ground in a bit of shock as the two cars collided just a few meters away from them. Selena jumped from the truck and smirked, "Well well, seems my little puppet has done a grand job of bringing you two straight to me." she said as she slowly walked towards Miyavi and Latanya. The driver smirked as his form disintegrated into dust.
Uruha turned to face Ruki, his eyes were faded slightly meaning none of Ruki's words were reaching him. The man smirked, "Destroy the vampire, he caused your precious Reita to be taken from you!" he said as he waved his hand. Uruha advanced on Ruki with the intent to kill. Ruki looked at Uruha in disbelief; he'd lost his friend to madness. Miyavi glared at the woman, clutching his fists in anger.
Latanya stayed behind Miyavi, "I can fight…let me fight her…" she said offering a smile as her outfit changed to a black and white striped tank top with a black sleeveless hooded type shirt over top of it with a pink skull patch safety pinned to the shirt. Her black jeans rested low on her hips with a pink silver studded belt looped around her waist. She smirked some stepping up to face Selena, "So you're the wench who thinks she's so high and mighty?" she questioned with a bit of sarcasm in her voice.
Selena blinked slightly, "ch…I don't fight little girls." she said waving her hand in the air as she stopped walking, she stood only a couple inches taller than Latanya because of her boots, but she wasn't afraid of this child who thought she knew how to fight. Uruha winced as saw the distraught look on Ruki's face, "R-R-Ru-Ru-Ru-ki" he stammered out trying to make sense of the thoughts in his head. Ruki looked at Uruha, a glint of hope springing in his eyes as he gazed at Uruha.
Miyavi had no choice to let Latanya go, he knew better than to argue with her. He sighed and crossed his arms as he watched and eyed Selena carefully. Selena growled at Latanya's slightly demonic presence, "What exactly are you?!?" she questioned with a hint of disgust mixed into her voice. Latanya smirked, "What am I?" she questioned with mockery filling her voice, she knew exactly how to play with emotions and what buttons to push. Selena blinked and flushed slightly with anger, "I would watch your mouth little girl!" she snapped.
Uruha shook his head as the control that was over him strengthened, "I will kill you!" he said lunging for Ruki's throat catching the other off guard and pinned him to the floor. Ruki lie on the floor, not even bothering to fight for he knew his own secret and he knew for a fact that he needn't fear dying for he would never die. He peered up at Uruha sadly. "Go ahead, Uruha. Squeeze all you like." Ruki said quietly to the older blonde that had him pinned down.
Uruha looked down at Ruki and glared but suddenly froze as his body just slumped over letting go of Ruki. The man smirked, "Allow me to introduce myself…I am Damion, reaper of souls." he said as he chuckled some. Latanya smirked as she yawned some, "You bore me little lady." she said winking at Myavi. Selena growled and lunged forward; Latanya caught her and turned pinning the female fury to the ground.
Selena smirked and grabbed Latanya's foot pulling it out from underneath her as well as swiping the other foot from its place making the raven-haired plant lose her balance. Soon the tables for her flipped and Selena had Latanya pinned to the ground her hands wrapped around the raven-haired female's throat. Miyavi glared and took Selena by the hair and wrapped an arm around her middle, shifting his weight and hers, throwing her easily.
Ruki got up and sighed. "I already don't like you and yet, you still talk to me." He said as he looked to the man with a malice-filled glare as he ran a hand through his hair. Damion chuckled dryly, "You amuse me, more than your other half." he said as he walked forward, "So Shiro…what do you really think about your other half getting married to that half demon?" he questioned as he walked around Shiro.
Latanya smiled at Miyavi and spring boarded back onto her feet but winced slightly. She hadn't used this much of her strength since she was a teenager. Selena growled as she got back to her feet, she was furious now. Fire started to engulf her form as she started to transform into her true demonic self. Miyavi watched in curious yet careful curiosity.
Ruki growled. "I think that I don't like being treated like an item. I also think that you're getting on my fucking nerves." Ruki spat defiantly to the man with malice in his eyes. "Plus, you have taken things from me... AND Uruha-kun as well." Ruki said with a deeper glare. Damion smirked, "Your other half robbed me of my bride." he said glaring at Ruki now, this little fledgling of a vampire was starting to touch some nerves.
Latanya winced as flames shot from the fiery abyss before them, she moved out of the way of a couple flames but one singed her arm. She winced as she moved over beside Miyavi. The transformation neared completion as fire engulfed dragon wings shot forth from the flames. Miyavi pushed Latanya behind him for protection.
Ruki glared. "She never was your fucking bride, you thick-headed imbecile! Yes, she loved you but, you never were meant to be. Besides, a jackass like you deserved what he fucking got." Ruki retorted with a satisfied and defiant smirk. Damion smirked, "Such language." he said smirking some as he shook his head slightly, "…You know nothing of my past with her." he growled backhanding Ruki.
Latanya winced slightly as the flames grew brighter as a brilliant crimson flame enshrouded dragon fury emerged from the burning flames in front of them. "This is not good…" she said as she watched the dragon growl at both of them. Miyavi sighed as he stood his ground. "I beg to differ. Merely more of... challenge..." He said to her with a smile.
Ruki sighed and ignored the hand the man had lain onto his face in clear insult. "You may think that but, I know things you wouldn't fathom I know." He replied calmly as he took hold of the man's shoulders and slammed him up against the wall. "Now, tell me where you're keeping them, or I get physically mean and fuck your goddamned face up." Ruki said with a growl as his eyes flashed deep red.
Damion smirked, "You think I honestly know where they are keeping those two? Those furies act on their own accord." He said shoving Ruki off, "and what could you possibly know about my relationship with her that I wouldn't know?!?!" he questioned glaring at Ruki.
Latanya nodded as she stood her ground, she hadn't fought in a long time so this might be a sort of challenge on how well she could fight now since she hadn't used those skills in so long. Miyavi smiled at her and took his stance.
Ruki smiled at Damion. "That is none of your concern." He said as he looked at the man before him. Damion growled but soon regained his calm composure, "Why should I believe anything you say? Your attempts at getting me worked up over my past won't work." He said glaring at Ruki.
Latanya took her stance beside Miyavi, she would try her best to fight, but she didn't know how long she would last. Miyavi smiled at her and gave her a reassuring smile.
Ruki smiled. "Now who said I was trying to do that. I just said it was nothing of your concern... But, I bid you fare thee well..." Ruki said with a smile as he held up his hands, did a few gestures and secured the premises from any unwanted intruders or guests. Damion frowned as he was removed from the house.
Latanya smiled at Miyavi but quickly moved as the dragons tail slammed into the concrete between them creating a large split into the ground separating the two. The dragon fury smirked and sucked in some air before blowing fire into the crevasse separating the two for the moment by a large wall of fire. Miyavi blinked and sighed as he yawned and waved a hand, the fire moved and began dancing around his hands playfully.
Ruki sighed as he knelt down to Uruha, placing a hand on his neck to check for a pulse and sighed when he found a strong one. He sighed as he removed his hand from Uruha's neck and shook the older man lightly. "Uruha... wake up..." Ruki said as he shook the older blonde guitarist. Uruha coughed as he opened his eyes somewhat, "Ugh…W-what…Happened?" he questioned wincing slightly at his pounding head.
Latanya smirked and moved swiftly jumping through the flames and landed but the ground under her feet collapsed as the dragon's claw shot up through the ground. She winced as she couldn't move as pressure was placed around her body as she struggled. Miyavi glared and set the fire loose and onto the claw, grabbing Latanya and setting her safely onto the ground by him.
Ruki sighed. "One of them came after you... But, you're alright now." Ruki replied with a relieved smile down to the blonde, his heart jumped for joy because he knew that he hadn't lost Uruha to them yet. Uruha smiled and nodded sighing some, "Gomenasai Ruki-kun." He said looking at the ground as he sat up now.
Latanya held onto his arm, "She's after either one of us, so its best not to let her get any open chances." she said as she motioned to the way the claw slid back into the ground like a snake. Miyavi smiled. "Well, let's give her what she wants." He replied as he leaned over and whispered his plan into her ear with a smile.
Ruki looked at Uruha. "What are you sorry for?" Ruki asked the blonde with a questioning look on his face. Uruha sighed, "For being a burden." he said still looking at the ground. Latanya moved close to him to hear his plan better.
Selena growled and spit fire in their direction, but it hit a strong barrier as Latanya put her hand in Miyavi's and let her energy flow through him. Miyavi smiled at her. "Got it? I'm going to make her think she's got us with a little 'clone' trick." He whispered to Latanya with a smile.
Ruki looked down at Uruha seriously. "You're... You're not a burden. In fact, I think you're keeping my sanity in tact." Ruki said as he looked at the blonde's down turned head. Uruha blinked, "Me?" he questioned raising an eyebrow.
Latanya nodded, "Yes, I understand. Be careful." She said kissing him once more as she smirked some breaking the kiss as Selena's claws came underneath them. Miyavi smirked and easily had them both replaced with clones as they moved from the area.
Ruki smiled at Uruha some. "Yeah... If it weren't for you being here... I'd probably have lost it and broke down by now..." Ruki replied with a sad look as he looked at his own hands clasped in his lap. Uruha put an arm around Ruki, "Look we will find some way to get Aoi and Reita back, I promise." he said offering a small smile.
Latanya winced as she felt some of her contractions taking place, 'not now..' she told herself in her mind as she tried to keep up with Miyavi in getting out of the area but as soon as he got so far ahead the ground split separating them both. Darla smirked as she appeared behind Latanya, "Interesting…We didn't take into account you were carrying…" she said with a deadly smirk as she moved forward quickly and put her palm to Latanya's face knocking her down.
Selena went after Miyavi to keep him from attacking Darla so her sister could finish Latanya off and they could bring Miyavi over to their side. Miyavi glared at Selena. "Get out of my way." He said with a glare as he waved a hand, sending the woman flying as he appeared behind Darla with a smirk.
Ruki smiled at Uruha some. "Yeah... Thanks, Uruha..." Ruki said to the blonde as he got back up to finish making the bed. Uruha smiled, "Your Welcome Ruki." he said as he plopped down on the bed.
Darla glared as she shoved her sword backwards through Miyavi's abdomen hoping she had at least hit something vital then moved and grabbed Latanya holding her out over the crevasse, "If you try to stop us anymore, we will tear your little family apart stitch by stitch starting with the unborn." she said as her claws grew like talons. Miyavi glared at her. "Do anything you'll regret and I'll personally kill every fucking member of your goddamn family." He said as his eyes flared a deep red.
Ruki looked at Uruha. "Uruha, I'm not done yet." Ruki said as he placed his hands onto his hips and looked at Uruha. Uruha smiled, "I'm comfy…I don't want to get up." he said sticking his tongue out at Ruki playfully.
Darla squeezed blocking Latanya's air way making the raven haired female gasp for air as she was held in midair above the crevasse. Darla just watched Miyavi, "Go ahead move, I'll just drop her and then you'll have to make a split decision, go after me and my sister or save your wife." she said squeezing harder digging her nails into Latanya's throat. Miyavi glared. "You know, I'd love to rip your heart out right now." He said to her with a glare.
Ruki sighed. "Fine, do it yourself." Ruki replied with a smile as he tossed the sheets onto Uruha. Uruha smiled and turned grabbing Ruki's wrist and pulled him onto the bed, "Lay!" he said smiling.
Latanya winced as she could feel the blood slowly dripping down her neck as Darla's nails dug deeper into her skin. Darla smirked, "You could try…now why don't you just give yourself up and join us Miyavi-san?" she questioned as she made sure to cause Latanya to let out a dry whimper of pain just for the pleasure of seeing Miyavi's reaction to it. Miyavi glared and spat at her feet. "I'd rather die an honor less commoner than join you!" He replied with a glare to her.
Ruki blinked and looked at Uruha upside-down as he was now lying on the bed. "Uruha..." Ruki said as he looked at the blonde guitarist. Uruha smiled and poked Ruki's thigh some.
Darla smirked as she immediately without warning let Latanya go smirking as the raven haired females form started to fall before she quickly dashed past Miyavi whispering, "Make your choice." she said as she dashed off to join her sister. Miyavi glared as he held out a hand, transporting Latanya to safety and turning to the two sisters. He smirked and held up a hand as he whistled loudly. "I think I need an old friends' help on this one." He said with a smirk as he had a shadow appear beside him.
Ruki pouted as he curled up to keep his body out of reach. Uruha watched him, "What's wrong Ruki-kun?" he questioned looking at his friend. Darla glared at Miyavi, "Why do you as a full fledged Vampire still love that plant child?" she questioned glaring more at the shadow than Miyavi. Miyavi smirked as the shadow formed into a more solid form and turned into a demon shadow wolf. The wolf growled and Miyavi petted it on the head.
Ruki sighed. "I don't like being poked." Ruki whined as he looked at Uruha. Uruha immediately sat up as he caught scent of Reita's cologne, he knew that distinct smell anywhere, he jumped up and dashed from the room to find where the scent was coming from.
Latanya sighed as she watched the battle from where she sat by her car which she had called, she winced as she could feel the contractions coming on more and more, and every time they happened they seemed to hurt worse than the ones before. Miyavi smirked as he disappeared and the shadow animal attacked the two furies.
Ruki blinked and got up as he left the room to find Uruha. "Uru..?" Ruki questioned as he looked around. Uruha was standing at the front door just frantically unlocking the door to find the source of this smell that reminded him so much of Reita.
Latanya covered her ears as the furies screams echoed throughout the area, the glass in her car windows shattered from the high pitch sounds of their screams put together. The furies tried to get away from the demon dog but both got drug back down into the crevasse; the ground was covered in blood from the Furies bodies. Miyavi smirked as he watched from above, gathering the energy needed, and sent a deep blast into the hole. Shadow came back up as the blast was dropped down into the crevasse.
Ruki blinked. "Uru... don't open the door..." Ruki said as he watched concernedly from the hallway. Uruha threw the door open only to come face to face with Damion who smirked and slowly brought his hand up wrapping it around Uruha's throat and threw him out the door before going after Ruki.
Latanya winced as she moved to stand up; she looked around before catching her balance as the ground below her rumbled and then started to crack like in an Earthquake. Miyavi dashed and grabbed hold of her, letting Shadow transport them away from the area.
Ruki glared at Damion. "You can't get in, you haven't been invited in." Ruki said with a glare to Damion. Damion smirked, "I don't need your permission I had his." he said motioning to Uruha as he appeared in front of Ruki.
Latanya held onto Miyavi, "You're getting stronger." She said smiling at him before wincing some at the contractions that continued to come. Miyavi smiled at her. "Yes." He replied to her with a smile.
Ruki glared. "Because you deceived him." Ruki said with a glare. Damion smirked, "I'm not after either you nor Uruha, my target is someone completely different, she's not a vampire, but she is a plant angel…and I want you to tell me where she is." he said pinning Ruki to the wall.
Latanya smiled as she moved to sit down, she winced as she about collapsed from how dizzy she felt, she hadn't used her powers or fighting techniques in so long and being pregnant didn't help her either it only made her feel even more sick to her stomach. Miyavi held her close to him as he sighed and they appeared home.
Ruki sighed. "I don't know." Ruki replied as he looked calmly at Damion. Damion let him go, "You do know where she is…because you're one half of the man who stole her from me!" he said nailing a swift kick into Ruki's ribs.
Latanya coughed as she covered her mouth, she brought her hand back and noticed the blood splatter on her hand, she quickly made the blood disappear hoping Miyavi hadn't already caught the scent of it. Miyavi looked at her. "You need a doctor." He said to her as he went to the phone.
Ruki coughed and recovered as he looked at Damion. Ruki sighed as he looked at Damion. "I don't know where she is..." Ruki replied with a groan. Damion growled, "Fine then, I'll hunt that SOB down!" he said vanishing.
Latanya shook her head, "No I'm fine…I promise…" she said as she winced some more before stopping as Damion appeared in front of her, "Your hurt." He said lifting her chin, Latanya gasped a bit as she backed up and winced as she tripped over the rug falling backwards. Miyavi glared as he threw a hard rock at Damion.
Ruki glared and dashed outside to where Uruha was. Uruha was picking himself up off the ground feeling lower than dirt more than ever now, he kept falling for these vampire's tricks and now that he knew Ruki was one of them, how could he trust him.
Latanya winced as she almost hit the floor but Damion caught her, "You should take better care of your 'wife'." He said glaring back at Miyavi as he picked Latanya up. Miyavi glared. "Keep your hands off of her!" He said with a glare as Shadow appeared underneath Damion and sucked him down. Miyavi caught Latanya before she hit the ground.
Ruki sighed. "Thank God you're not hurt." Ruki said as he looked at Uruha, a relieved look on his face. Ruki extended a hand out to help Uruha up. Uruha smacked his hand away, "Ruki, why didn't you tell me, you, Miyavi, and Aoi were all one of those…those things…?" he questioned as he got up on his own.
Latanya held onto Miyavi wincing slightly, "I feel like a princess…everyone's carrying me now." She said laughing some as she smiled up at Miyavi. Damion shook his head and broke free from Shadow and appeared back at his hideout. Miyavi smiled at her. "Good." He said to her with a smile.
Ruki blinked and held his hand against his chest with a hurt look on his face. "Uruha... I'm sorry... I wanted to tell you but I didn't know how to tell you..." Ruki said as he looked at Uruha as his eyes started to build tears up in his eyes. Uruha glared at the ground. "I...I'm going home..." he said as he got to his feet and started to make his way down the sidewalk. Ruki...and Aoi...both... they...were...both VAMPIRES... were his thoughts going through the guitarists head as he staggered down the dark sidewalk toward his home.
Latanya smiled up at Miyavi and wrapped her arms around his neck blushing a bit as she laid her head against his chest happily. Miyavi smiled at her as he sat her carefully down onto the couch.
Ruki clenched his fists tightly, biting his lip to keep from breaking down. "...Uruha! Please... Please... Don't leave me..." Ruki pleaded as he plopped down onto the ground in the wet grass as he watched the blonde guitarist leave through blurred eyes as they built up tears in them. Uruha just continued to walk ignoring the cries of the raven-haired vocalist.
Latanya smiled then her smile dropped, "Something…is wrong with Shiro-kun…" she said as she could feel the overwhelming sadness, she still had a connection to that part of Miyavi. Miyavi sighed. "I know. I can feel it too. But, I know how he is and he won't tell anyone how he's feeling even if tortured." He said to her with a sigh as he ran a hand through his hair.
Ruki picked himself up slowly from the ground and made his way back into his home. He shut the door behind himself and broke down into tears behind the door, sliding his way slowly down the back of the door. He was crumpled at the bottom of the door, face in the floor, hair cascading over his face as he cried in sadness. No one wanted him now... He was useless...
Latanya put a hand over her heart, "It's painful…that sadness…" she said looking up at Miyavi with blank eyes; she had always gotten like this whenever her powers seemed to sink with the emotions of someone who has broken on the inside.
Uruha just continued on his way down the road before slowly walking up the front walk of his home, he unlocked the door and went inside shutting it behind him, not bothering to change, he collapsed onto the couch. Ruki just cried, his entire self lost in an instant. He pulled himself up from the floor and curled up in a ball on the couch, staring into the distance as tears flowed from his eyes.
Miyavi looked to Latanya. "It is, because he's been hurt by someone he thought would trust him." He said to her with a quiet look in his eyes. "Poor Ruki-kun…a pain…a wound like this can take so long to heal…" she said as she reached up and pulled Miyavi onto the couch, "Sadly…I know how he feels…it happened to me once before…" she said laying her head in Miyavi's lap.
Uruha just stared off into the distance, 'Maybe I was a little harsh on Ruki…I mean…we all have our secrets do we not?' he questioned himself in his mind. Ruki didn't want to move, he had no point or reason to do so...
Miyavi sighed. "Yes, I think we all know how he feels." He replied to her with a sigh. Latanya smiled up at him and reached up to touch his cheek, "I can help you find Aoi-kun…and Reita-kun." She said watching his facial features.
Aoi winced as he slowly woke up in a dark room, his head was spinning as thoughts churned through his head, '…Ano…where the hell am I?' he thought as he glanced around the dark room.
Miyavi smiled at her. "How about we worry about that tomorrow? I'm tired..." He said to her with a yawn and a smile. Latanya smiled and nodded, "Yes I suppose I am too." she said as she moved to sit up. Miyavi smiled at her. "I can carry you upstairs if you want." He said to her with a smile. Latanya smiled, "Then I would feel even more like a princess and a groom." she said blushing some at her own words as she looked up at him lovingly. Miyavi smiled at her as he wrapped his arms carefully around her and carried her upstairs to their room and sat her down lightly onto the bed.
Latanya smiled, "Just think soon you'll get to call yourself a father." She said chuckling a bit as she moved to crawl under the covers. Miyavi smiled at her. "Yeah." He replied with a smile to her as he crawled into the bed. Latanya smiled and snuggled down underneath the covers, "Do you think I could sing for you sometime? I've not sung in quite a while." She said as she blushed some. Miyavi smiled at her. "I guess." He replied to her with a smile.
