Sora's POV


I don't like fighting, I've never have even when I'm faced with death I try to stop myself from killing. But sometimes its hard, sometimes I can't stop myself, sometimes it's just so much more easier to let go of everything.

But there are some parts of me that I would like to remain asleep, there are parts of me that I can't stand to see, there are parts of me that I would rather not be there. And yet those parts that are so horrid, those parts that are there, make me, well me and keep alive in this world.

Some things can't be erased from your memory, your first fear, first fight, first argument with a loved one, the first time you ever hurt someone. Those things can't be forgotten no matter how hard you try, no matter how hard I try, those things are still there and will never go away, it will never disappear. No matter how many shooting stars you wish upon.

Even monsters of the night feel this way, especially when we have something we have to protect something we love and hold close to our hearts. Even those without souls and have seen so many things, feel like this, the need to protect their wants, needs, their lovers, their reason for living. The ones they love…

Sometimes…that's all that really matters…


Our hands let go of each other with reluctance as I watched his figure disappear into the sea of people dancing, I smiled for a few moments as his vanished from my view and then I turned to face Riku. His face was firm, which could only mean one thing; there was something he wanted to discuss with me that related to our kind, mostly towards our 'family'.

Our eyes locked I sighed, " Outside, we won't be able to speak freely and I wouldn't want to make a scene or ruin Demyx's party even if you wouldn't care about the latter." I said as we walked outside it was odd being next to him on so long but I place that aside and proceeded.

Riku sighed as we walked, " You care too much for these human, they will all wither away and die sooner or later while we live forever." He muttered flicking a stray strand of silver hair out of his face.

I glanced at him as we exited through the back door, "Yes…" for a moment I thought of Axel and frowned, " Yes I know and yet when that day comes I'll still be there by their side regardless of how much time has passes between us and them."

Only I would be hiding in the shadow watching over them…I would never be able to show myself to them…but that is a price I am willing to pay.

The clean cold air of the city greeted us in a gentle breeze, but it did nothing to soften the tension between us. I find it funny that best friends can also be worst enemies, after all as the saying goes 'keep your friends close, but your enemies closer', though I don't consider Riku as an enemy I consider him as my dearest and oldest friend.

But enough of my babbling, besides we have to make this quick knowing my twin this will be cut very short. After all knowing how Roxas is he would have noticed something going on with Riku and most likely told Cloud or is coming himself, which makes our time very short.

Finally we stopped with enough distance between the house and us, the moon was very bright and the wind just would not stay still continuously playing with our hair. Riku faced me eyes caught in a serious stare as I looked out towards the outskirts of town when he spoke. Trust I sort of knew what was going to happen…such a pain…

"Sora Strife, just what the hell do you think you are doing!" cried Riku as his eyes turned a shade of icy silver and his pupils changed into slits as he face was decorated with a frown on his lips.

Now he was no longer hiding his anger as his fangs came into view; he may be an Aristocrat but I am of pureblood. Not only has he broken my heart but also he has over stepped his boundaries regardless of what the subject might be there are other ways to speak besides trying to yell my ear off.

Anger started to bubble into the surface of my heart; my eyes changed from a warm blue to a cold transparent shade with specks of red in them as my pupils changed into slits.

I could feel my fangs grow long and sharper I turned to look at my best friend and ex.
I usually don't get annoyed so easily, but when I do get angered I try to avoid being seen, not only do I change into my true form but I lose control of myself and feast upon anyone who is near me. But I wasn't angry with Riku; not right now I was very, very annoyed.
"It is none of your concern, Riku." I hissed narrowing my eyes as him, flexing my fists as my nails extended at least an inch, as a growl slipped through me.

He growled at me, "Sora! Are you even thinking right!? As your friend I am completely against you being with Axel! And I forbid you from seeing or being with him!" he said in a firm voice placing his arms over his chest.

I hissed at him…his has no idea what he has gotten himself into…

Now he stepped on a nerve, turning away from the moon I stared at him, eyes narrowed in an icy stare. Really, just who the hell does he think he is? True he is a very close friend but this is over stepping the line between our different classes.

I hissed flashing my fangs at him, "Riku, do not over step your boundaries!" I muttered stepping closer towards him leave a distance of a few feet between us, " I may be younger then the rest but regardless of my age I outrank you by blood and status. Even without that my privet affairs matters only to myself and to those involved, not you."

I growled again to enthuses the point of which I was trying to make regarding my actions towards Axel and my blood type problem, it's saddening mostly because I always thought my 'family' would support my decision. But it would appear that this is not the case.

Riku snapped, " It does matter what I have to say, you could be endangering the rest of our clan! And why? The only fucking reason why you are risking you so much both you AND Cloud, is because you both are in love with stupid worthless humans!"

I snapped we both lost our tempers forgetting about where we are, what we are and what could happen, we just lost it. He growled as his icy silver eyes flashed a dangerous shade of red, as he swung his arms quickly giving me hardly anytime to react, or to get out of the way.

Side stepping I barely made it out of his reach as his nails dug into the skin of my cheek causing blood to flow down my chin and neck. I glared at him my eyes changed to a haunting shade of golden yellow as a growl escaped through my lips; I will not allow him to get away with what he said.

I lunged forward filled with anger and hurt, we clashed growls echoed through the night as we fought. He sidestepped my attack as he cursed baring his fangs he bit into the flesh of my expose arm. I yelped in pain as his fangs tarred at my skin causing blood to squirt out splashing his face with my crimson liquid.
Mostly would be worried but I'm not, this is exactly what I wanted to happen.

Grinning I pulled him towards me, caught off guard he lost his balance, wincing as he fangs tore a large gash in my arm I lunged forward.

Taking his right arm twisting it against his back I sank my fangs into this shoulder as he blood squirted all around us slashing my face and cloths with specks of blood. He howled in pain as my claws dug into his arm tarring flesh apart allowing the blood to flow freely.

He growled using all his strength he kicked my feet, I lost my balance as we fell to the ground, rolling side to side. Every time I dug my nails into him, he would bite me with such strength that I could not suppress a yelp. Yet every time I punctured his skin with my fangs, causing streams of blood to be created he would dig into my skin with his teeth and nails.

Gasping for breath we broke apart, panting he cradled his right arm which I had fractured, regardless of that he hissed and ran forward. Growling I followed suit, planning to finish this fight as soon as possible. His nails dug into my side as he bit into my shoulder, growling I pushed him down, the grassed echoed with a wet sound, the sound of our blood soaking into the earth.

"I'm ending this here Riku!"

Growling I broke his arm as I twisted it, breaking with a sickening sound, he cried in pain. I felt something roll down my cheeks, ignoring the sensation I silenced his cried as I sank my teeth into his neck.

He was gasping, his silver eyes reverted back to his normal aqua green, and fangs reverted, as did the length of his nails. His face was paler from the blood lost and for the first time he looked scared, scared of me.

"S-sora…" he mumbled afraid that if he moved I would tare his neck apart.

Realizing what I had done, and that I had won I pulled away letting my features shift back to my human ones, but I was still caked in blood I no longer knew who's blood it was.

"Riku…now do you understand? I know…I know what I'm doing is dangerous…but I love him and not you or anyone else will pull us away from each other." I said brushing a few strands of hair from his face, "Please…you are my dearest friend, a brother, I had hope that you would at least feel happy for me after everything we have been through."

Riku's breathing became laboring he clenched my hand tightly, but not as tight as he could if he was at full strength, "Do…you really…love him…that…much Sora…? So…much that…y-y-you'd risk him…finding out about…y-your…d-d-darkness?"

I frowned but I nodded my head, "Yes Riku, I love with all my being, more then I ever loved you. But I am not a fool Riku I know he will die one day, but when he is reborn Ill make sure to find him once again." I said casting a heating spell to keep us warm.

He laughed, a very dry laugh, "You are…such…a s-sap Sora…" he paused, "But…I think now I u-understand what you feel, I w-w-won't stand in …your…way…"

"Thank you…"I mumbled nuzzled my cheek against him in a friendly manner.

"But…is something happens…to…you because…of him…I w-w-won't hesitate Sora…" he said smirked or at least tried to.

I gave him as sad smile as I noticed people running towards us, I know who they were so I wasn't worried about being found out.

"Yes, I know Riku and if that time comes I won't hesitate to protect him either."

"Heh…naïve vampire…"

"No…just one hoping to protected his loved ones…"

"SORA! RIKU!" cried Roxas as he, Cloud, Kairi and Naimine rushed towards us.

I shared a look with Riku and we both smiled knowing full well that they'll make a fuss about this at home. Roxas gasped at he looked at Riku to me, glared he marched right up ignoring the soften earth.

"Roxas I-", I didn't get to finish.

He slapped me across the face growled he kneeled the to both of us, Cloud followed suit though he hit me upside the head instead.

"You tow are such idiots you know that right?" he said rolling his eyes as he took out two vials of blood for us to drink.

Riku laughed softly as Roxas poured the substance down his throat, Naimine frowned, "Sora…you are such a reckless person sometimes, please be more careful in the very near future." She mumbled as she healed some of Riku's more serious wounds.

I nodded my head silently knowing what she meant, "I'm sorry…I suppose we both got carried away…"

Kairi glared at us, " 'Suppose'? We are taking you home, we already explained to Reno and Axel, and Demyx that something had come up and that we had to head home. You better apologize to them tomorrow at the café." She murmured shaking his red head.

I nodded my head at this, though Riku wasn't so happy about that but he didn't say anything instead he apologized to Roxas for taking things to far. As we headed back to our own methods of transportation that we came in Cloud pulled me away from the others and spoke.

"Sora, Riku understands but do you? Do you understand what could had happened if I hadn't keep Axel away while you two sorted out everything?" he muttered running his hand through his blonde spiky hair.

My eyes widen, I hadn't thought of that; the thought never crossed my mind. If Axel had followed me, he would have seen me and what I truly am…I would have lost him on the same night I had found him. And if Axel followed so would have Reno…ad Cloud would've lost…

"Cloud…" I mumbled as we sat on his bike leaning against him, "I'm sorry…I could have lost him…"

Cloud sighed, "It's alright…you are still a kid after all I think you are entitled to some mistakes just…" he paused, " Just be more careful…I don't want you to feel lonely again."

I relaxed slightly, "Yeah…I know I'll be more careful… thank you Cloud…"

He laughed, "Don't mention it, though I don't think you'll be off the hook so soon Mother's going to lecture you and Riku's older brother will know and well…You know how Sephiroth gets…"

All my blood ran cold….

"Oh…FUCK!"
