Disclaimer: ugh I don't own Mai-otome/hime too bad BUT HEY! Nyx, Sayuri and Himerus (well…I think I wont mind saying I don't own her next time) are mine hear me SUNRISE! THEY ARE MINE, PURELY MINE –evil laugh- cough
Kiyohime
"Last time you were simply lucky, Himerus, I will definitely kill you!" the Master Vampire proclaimed lifting her arm upward.
"Silene noeturna." Sayuri whispered, closing her eyes with her hands clasped against her chest as they glowed dark.
A long, black sword covered completely by black rose petals materialized itself in Nyx's lifted hand.
"Tyrfing." Himerus eyes wide in recognition of the sword in front of her and backed slightly.
"I didn't have it with me on that fight…" Nyx golden eyes glared at the other vampire dangerously. "However I am not letting you escape this time!" With that said, she launched to attack Himerus.
The mad vampire simply chuckled as she took a rapier with a wired hilt from her back and tackled Nyx. Both swords clashed together, the impact sent both back. They continued on like this, slashing and charging each other.
Nyx irritated growled and went charging once again toward the other vampire. Himerus simply smirked, she half-extended her arm laterally, her blade pointing forward with a downward incline as she waited till the last second before jumping backwards hastily. Then the mad vampire swung her sword down to Nyx's leg making her fall. Before she could thrust the rapier on the purple-haired vampire, black petals released themselves from the blade and attacked the black-haired vampire as if they were lethal blades. The petals attached themselves back to the Tyrfing as Himerus was tossed to the wall.
Golden eyes stared emotionlessly at the vampire in front of her while red eyes gazed lustily back. Nyx stood up, a quick glance at her sword and it began to glow dark. She simply glared at her foe when the other started to laugh madly.
"Unleash the sword and a man must die." Himerus stated still laughing madly with a smirk on her face. "It seems this has turned into a death match, love unless you wish to kill someone else." She raised one eyebrow and with her chin pointed at Sayuri, who was currently fighting a trio of vampires.
"Don't get cocky simply because you made me unleash my sword." Nyx warned as she gave an 'in line' stand. "Let's see how much you were taught about Fencing."
"Oh Naooooo" Shiho said purring the vampire name.
When the fight had stared, everyone separated. Reito, Haruka and the rest of Himes were sent out and were currently fighting their own battle outside. Nyx and Sayuri had stayed and fought on the dance floor. Natsuki and Shizuru were nowhere seen but Nao knew they were just at the other room fighting.
She cursed while trying she kept running, not that she have a choice either. The redhead had chosen the upper level of the main room, the space was limited and the hall that will lead her to the dining room was too far. Besides, Shiho might as well see her and that was something she didn't want.
Dammit, we are all cursed aren't we? Nyx got that mad woman; Natsuki got that green-haired kid and I have this ponytail freak! She thought angry, almost wanting to scream out in frustration.
Suddenly her body froze and was levitating of its own accord. She looked up and saw the wicked smile of Shiho, her twin ponytails stirring. The vampire witch held a wand pointing it at Nao who was floating toward her.
"Shit…" was the only thing she could say as she landed in front of her enemy, still paralyzed.
"I am one of the few witches turned vampire still having the ability to use magic." She stated walking to her crush. "Your beautiful face is all sweating, onee-chan." The pink-haired vampire caressed Nao's cheek and smiled fondly. "Tsk, tsk you should have been more careful." She scolded and took a handkerchief to clean Nao's sweat. "There all pretty and lovely. How I love you so much, onee-chan." She smiled again.
"And how I hate you, Shiho." Nao grumbled and looked away blushing furiously. Even if she didn't want to admit it, and so she wouldn't, she did feel something for the mad girl. "Can we fight already?"
"What's with all of Nagi's children and fighting?" Shiho complained both hands on her hips and pouting. "Nyx is always fighting with Himerus-san once they see each other, now I bet Tomoe-chan and Natsuki-san will fight each other too. I don't want to fight you, onee-chan."
"Nyx fights because Himerus is mad and doesn't accept the idea of Nyx loving Sayuri. And that ugly green haired girl will end up dead if she even dares to try steal Viola from Kruger." She then looked away. "And how many times do I have to tell you to stop calling me that? I am not even your real sister."Shiho's smiled changed into a mad one as she caressed Nao's cheek again. She leaned closer and whispered next to her ear.
"But you did care about me, you are the reason I am a vampire. You are the reason I love you. Nao-oneesama."
That was it. Something in Nao snapped. Undesirable images from her past flashed through her mind and she shouted.
"JULIA!"
A huge, red and black spider appeared and jumped on Shiho who hastily backed away. She was so shocked that her spell ended and released Nao. The redhead was gritting her teeth and clenching her fists furiously, her whole body trembling. Julia stood next to her master waiting for the next command. The ponytailed vampire cursed yet again before she could do anything, Nao charged toward her. The impact sent both of them to the floor. Nao was now straddling the other girl. Shiho struggled but her arms were being pinned above her head by the redhead's own arms. She was about to say something when she felt it. One drop. Another drop. Fresh tears fell from Nao's face as she gazed at yellow eyes painfully.
"I tried everything, I begged Shiho. I ran…I was really trying to save you that time…I really was…" she whispered, her short red-hair covering her eyes as more tears fell.
After the initial shock, the vampire witch smiled sympathetically. She caressed Nao's cheek and then with her thumb wiped her tears.
"Nao…" Shiho leaned closer, lips inches apart. She kissed the redhead softly. She smiled as the tears stopped and as Nao returned the kiss.
"Duran!" Natsuki called, shooting three vampires with one hand, using a revolver 357 magnum de Francis Guerin, while holding Shizuru with the other arm.
The gigantic blue-haired wolf slammed through the doors as it entered and stood, growling dangerously by his mistresses side. The blue-haired vampire clenched her teeth, gazing at the door where she last saw Nyx fighting before she was forced to retreat. A slight tremble and soft whimper made her look down at Shizuru. The chestnut haired woman was currently unconscious after a long staring with Himerus. Natsuki was concerned of the relationship between the vampire and witch. From the corner of her eyes, she could see Tomoe smirking, swinging a guandao. The newly awaked vampire was walking slowly toward them. The Master Vampire cursed at her powerless.
"Bullets containing holy water, really smart and expected of the great and noble Mistress Kruger." Tomoe taunted her eyes glaring dangerously at green ones.
"Duran take care of Shizuru." She commanded, laying the girl on the floor. "Give your life for her, don't let anything happen or I won't forgive you." The wolf simply stared with such fierceness in its red eyes that she knew he would do whatever to keep Shizuru alive.
Natsuki stood and faced Tomoe with a glare of her own. Afterward she started to unbutton her light coat, revealing a black, skin-tight top. Yet that wasn't what made Tomoe's groan and grimace, but two little revolvers. A Smith & Wilson mod 36.38 special to be exact, hanging on the inside pockets of the coat.
"You really think you can beat me? After all you are just a new born child." Natsuki mocked, call her overconfident but she knew there was no chance for the other girl to defeat her.
"Do not underestimate me; I will do anything to make Shizuru-onee-sama mine." Tomoe growled pointing her guandao dangerously at the unaffected Master Vampire.
"Such a foolish kid, just a spoiled brat that can't accept the reality of its current situation."
"Shut up!"
Small, crimsons eyes watched on, speechless and scared at two figures. One was an old brunette woman with purple eyes while the other one was Himerus. The woman was kneeling and begging at the vampire, stopping it from coming any nearer to the girl. The girl simply crawled back, her knees against her chest and arms hugging her legs, she whimpered.
"No! Please stop! Himeru-san!" her voice was full of fear, desperation.
"This…how dare you! How dare you create someone like her?!" the vampire yelled back, her eyes looking angry at little crimsons one showing disgust just as her voice.
"Please Himeru-san!" she continued begging, tears falling from her face now.
"She –no- it should not live! That thing is nothing more than trash!" Himerus glanced once more to the child then back at her servant, her eyes twitched irritated.
"Spare her life, I beg you!"
"How dare you not address me rightfully! Nonetheless, I have no use of something so disgusting as a human, do as you like with it. I have better things to do." with that said, the Master Vampire left.
The woman was left on all fours, her long hair covering her face as she sobbed, knowing the incoming punishment. The crimsons eye's child gulped and walked to the woman.
"Mommy…" she whispered innocently, a little afraid.
"Shush…shush is ok, I promise you Kiyo, I promise you no more pain will come to you." She hushed, hugging the girl tightly, and fiercely covering her forehead with desperate kisses.
Shizuru simply groaned as she finally woke up. One blink. Two blink. Her vision finally cleared but her head still felt like it was spinning around. She heard faint shots, shouts, swords colliding and a dangerous growl. She then, slowly, sat up and saw a growling Duran warning a pair of vampires to stop from even daring or thinking about coming nearer. Yet the vampires were foolish creatures, they were insolent and so they died trying to attack Duran, who charged at them once they didn't back away.
The Hime watched silently, gunshots made her glance back. There, they were. Tomoe using her guandao to deflect the bullets while Natsuki avoided being slashed by it when they were in close range. Neither of them gave up and kept fighting. Shizuru was so entranced with the fighting as Duran still handled another couple of vampires. No one noticed a shaking hand, gripping a saber firmly walking slowly behind Shizuru. Unspoken levels of rage could be seen from the green eyes of the shadowed figure. It walked, silently and ignored around the tremendous chaos that was around them. Finally, inches apart his grip on the saber became firmer.
"DIE YOU BITCH!" the enraged voice said swinging his sword to the side to cut off Shizuru's head.
The outburst made both Tomoe and Natsuki stop. The green haired girl eyes wide in terror while the Master Vampire simply shouted for her new found love.
"SHIZURU!"
Shizuru was barely being able to glance back to meet the feral green eyes of his killer as the blade came nearer and nearer to her.
Omake:
Shizuru: ikezu, Rainee-chan why do you want to kill me so soon?
Natsuki: oi idiot! What is that? And I almost thought I will strip for Tomoe!
Rainee-chan: hence the title…-pouts- wait till next chapter and I am young I don't want to die, thank you very much –pouts more-
Natsuki: -eyes twitching- I don't need Shizuru dead you know.
Rainee-chan: ARE YOU KIDDING ME! IF I EVER KILL HER, I WOULDN'T GIVE THAT BASTARD THE CREDIT OF SUCH LUXURY!
Natsuki: -sweat drops-
Nao: God….why…….why the hell do I have to have Shiho T.T
Rainee-chan: you were complaining of Tomoe…you complain of Shiho now!?
Nao: YES!
Rainee-chan: FINE! I WILL GIVE YOU ONE LAST PERSON ON MY NEXT FIC OR SOMETHING! BUT DON'T WHINE IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE PERSON OR I AM TURNING YOU STRAIGHT AND PAIRING YOU WITH SAKOMI-WHATEVER CALLED!
Everyone: O.O
Shizuru: Ara, Rainee-chan is mad…kawaiiii
Natsuki: -eyes twitching- oi…she might have killed you…you know…
Shizuru: Ara –cocking her head cutely- still kawaiiiii reminds me of my cute Natsuki.
