AN: Hey Mina

I decided this had to come to an end, unfortunately. But, I'm hoping it will be good. But don't fret, this is the second last chapter.

Arigato Gozaimasu to my loyal and new readers. Not many newies because my story isn't in the search (Help please?)

To refresh, Len is a Baku, a being that eats dreams and kills to stay alive. The Takai Tenshi (High Angels) are also Baku but much more powerful and are the leaders (Like Pure Bloods in VK)

There were supposed to be 7 Takai Tenshi, but, unusally, there were only 5. Gakupo - one of the Takai Tenshi - found out that there were two other Takai Tenshi (the missing two 5 + 2 = 7)

Chika was going to die because usually people who have their dreams eaten must have them eaten again because no Baku can eat it all. She would die because her conscious mind 'gives up' so she can't think or move or anything because for the time she is under the spell 'Shi no Suimin' her conscious is dead and only her sub-conscious is awake. So basically she is dead and can only dream. If her conscious mind gives up, then she is eternally stuck sleeping and dreaming. If she didn't die like that, she would most likely commit suicide because the dream feels real and is so horrible.

I hope you like it and more is explained in the bottom AN because I'd spoil the story XD

Also, I have decided to make a one-shot or a redo of this, I found it very hard to write... and for you very hard to read. Hopefully I can retell it better.

The Monochrome Dream Eater, Len!

Chapter 10 - Finale

I gaped at the pulsing blood in her hands. Worser yet, it wasn't her own and I think she knew it.

"Len... what is this...?" She repeated slowly. I gulped. What can I tell her?

"Who's blood is this?" She asked quietly, blinking continuously.

"It's my own..." I replied quietly, looking into her rosy eyes, which were fearful and shocked. Now looking up at me, her eyes welled as well.

"Your own?" She stared at the red blood staining her hands.

That's it... I guess it's time to tell her. It won't hurt her, but, I guess my hope of prolonging her life will be shattered. Why preserve life that will eventually die anyway?

"Len. I get the feeling your lying to me... I'm going to ask you for a second time..."

"... Who are you really?" She whispered, her lips barely moving.

I closed my eyes reluctantly. I guess after all this time, all the time I spent with her, all the time a laughed with her, smiled with her, hated her, laughed at her, had fun with her, was mean to her, was nice to her... I guess I kind of...

Fell in love with her.

"My name is Len Kagamine. I am a Baku" I replied, staring coldly at her.

Her eyes widened, for not one second did she doubt. She looked slowly back down at her hand, the blood dripping to the floor.

"A... Baku? A... Dream Eating... Baku?" She repeated, her voice lifeless and scarce.

I nodded slowly, getting up from my seat. It was time for her to leave... I suppose...

"Chika. I have been eating your dreams for a couple of days and it had been going well... until now. I am going away, but, if I leave you, there are two options for you. One, you will die from a nightmare that rots your conscious... or, you simply commit suicide" I admitted, looking away.

"What do you mean? I'm not going to die... I won't. I can't" She said quickly, standing up.

I shook my head, standing closer to her.

"You will. But, I can't stop you, so the only option that I have is to do it now" I whispered hoarsely.

She shook her head quickly, stepping back slowly and shakily. Her eyes were rimmed red her lips were shaking, her whole body shivering wildly.

"No... I know that you wouldn't do that, Len..." She replied, continuing to step backwards.

"I may not. The Baku you see in front of you now... will" I looked to her.

She shivered and her mouth dropped slowly. For a minute I thought she was going to scream, but instead she only said one word.

"Why?"

Shi no Suimin

I decided to leave straight after instead of tomorrow with Len. He'd figure out where I was anyway.

"Sayonara" I whispered and after a short time, filled with nothing but blackness, I returned back to the Manor.

I was suddenly awoken to a very angry looking Miku-chan in my face.

"Hey, Miku..." I said nervously.

Her pigtails flapped animatedly as she yelled in an almost too perfect, high-pitched voice,

"Where do you think you've been, Luka-chan?"

I rubbed the back of my neck nervously. Len's habits seemed to have caught on.

"I was using a shell in the human world" I laughed nervously.

"Gosh Luka-chan! You didn't even tell us? That is so unlike you!" Miku shook her head, her pigtails still waving around.

"What was so important that you of all people got mad?" I asked. My nerves settled a little to see Miku not angry anymore.

She smiled and grabbed my hand, dragging me through the long, wide hallway. I was surprised to see we passed the formal dining area and the dorms. We kept running, the hallway seemed to go forever. Usually we didn't have to travel so far, the first 6 doors were the only ones we used. The 6th very rarely used at all. We turned a corner. I looked around in amazement, I only ever went around here my first tour with my Father. Miku lead me further, crossing different doors that I had only gone in once, or never. 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10 doors... we continued running and running, only to increase my suspicions. Finally, Miku suddenly stopped in front of the only door not coloured creamy marble, a smaller, white door. I recognized what it was.

"We can't go into the Black Day Cremation room, Miku! You know we aren't allowed!" I exclaimed, tugging her hand away from the doorknob.

She shook her delinquently, a fresh, new, interested smile across her face.

"Not now, you have too see this" She replied. Without hesitation, she swung the door open. The room was themed with dark wood and black marble, in the middle of the room on a big, black, solid stone table was a finely made maple coffin, to put the Tenshi's body in to be cremated. It was all so extravagant, very formal and quiet, no windows and not a sound was heard so far back in the Manor. The room was only slightly lit, by a small oil-fueled lamp hanging from the room in the far back. I guessed it would only be changed occasionally by the most trusted maids.

Miku stepped quietly and slowly around the large coffin, still clasping my hand. Back into the room, there was another door, but, matching with the theme of the room - but contrasting to the Manor - was a black door. It was the first one I had seen in the whole Manor, I didn't even know it was there. Miku hesitated, slowly opening the door. It creaked slowly and we were lead into a light-less, empty room. Miku touched a part of the wall which collapsed into the wall. Slowly and loudly, a large part of the floor retracted into the building, revealing a flight of dusty, old stairs.

"Oh my God..." I whispered.

Miku slowly stepped down the stairs, again still holding my hand. I shuddered as her mid-hight heels clicked along the one smooth surface of the stairs. To think I knew everything about this place... to my surprise, I was dead wrong. As we kept on walking into the steady darkness of the stairwell, Miku stopped for a minute, turning back. I tried to sense her expression in the darkness.

"Are you okay?" She whispered.

I didn't entirely know what she meant. Maybe if it was too dark, if I was cold? Maybe she thought I was overwhelmed?

"Yeah, I'm fine" I gave a quick nod. Miku advanced further and further into the darkness. It was eerie, but not as much as any other mysterious staircase. The Manor had a secure, sure and safe feeling to it. I had grown up here and slept in the same building my whole life, I guess finding something new after all these years was to be expected but... not something as suspicious as this.

As we traveled further and further down, for what seemed to be hours. An ominous blue glow oscillated from further down. I fluttered my eyelids, thinking it was a trick of my eyes from being in the dark for so long. The shining crystal blue light did not go away. Miku seemed anxious. I stopped on the step I was on, and Miku quickly flicked her head. Her ponytails brushing the walls, she out her other hand on top of mine.

"Are you sure you're okay?" She asked again, sympathy revealing in her tone.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Are you alright, Miku?" I replied. I felt Miku's hair against my waist as she nodded and kept on walking in the darkness. It was amazing that we could keep walking this long in total darkness down stairs. The blue light grew stronger and stronger as we walked further. The further we went, the more powerful and obvious the beautiful glow was. Finally, when we had traveled a little farther and the blue light and grown enormous, smothering the darkness in a crystal blue, making Miku look like nothing but a shadowy silhouette.

The last step was visible, I looked down in awe to see the end of our 'journey'. Miku stepped off lightly onto a grey, polished concrete floor. Still looking down, without hesitation, I stepped down one more step. As my feet touched the floor, the blue light shocking to my eyes, I covered the top of my eyebrows, shading my sight from the blinding blue. Miku didn't look affected. She only looked emotionless at what was beneath the rays of blue blinding me. I blinked and removed my hand.

I looked up slowly and what was laying there amongst Kaito, Meiko, Gakupo and Miku all gathered was something that shocked me the most.

Two bodies hanging in the blue light, which was glittering lightly. One a pretty young girl with short blonde hair and a pale but peachy complexion, wearing a yellow sailor-type school uniform. There was a boy with blonde hair in a uniform too, floating next to her. It looked although they were reaching for each others hand, a painful expression ridden across they're faces, it was filled with confusion, sadness and most of all desire. They both had one drop of blood suspended down their cheek, originating at their eyes. The classic sign of a immortal body being strained. Wait...

...I knew that shiny red blood...

Oh my God.

Len.

Chika stood still, her eyes wider than they had ever been. I walked over to her slowly and held my head down. Would it be better if I didn't watch?
I shook my head and knelt beside her cold body which was sleeping, but her eyes still open. I held my hand over her mouth and took that knife that Luka had insecurely hid under a pillow fallen of the couch.

I carefully slit my wrist and several drops of blood squeezed out from under my skin and fell gracefully into her open mouth. I closed my eyes, watching her nightmare that hadn't fully been erased.

The dream started in a large room, beautiful creams and whites decorated the whole room and plush furniture were placed symmetrically, perfectly. French, glass doors led into a blissful green courtyard and the windows were huge, covering almost the whole height of the walls. A diamond and crystal chandelier hung in the middle of the room, the light inside small and pretty. A large, king-size canopy bed was in the far right of the corner. In the bed was a beautiful woman, her hair was shiny and golden, tied into plaits that rested at her dainty and delicate shoulders. She was under the covers, her shoulders above the surface and was clutching at her pregnant stomach. Tears dripped from her eyes. Her hands holding tighter.

A loud bang made her snap her head up and a man entered the room, the bang from the door he swung open.

The woman started shaking her head quickly, more tears slid down her face.

The man with light blue hand swept up a gun in his hand, pointing it to her neck. She kept on shaking and the tears just didn't stop.

"Masao... it doesn't have to be this way...! Please! They are Tenshi like us, now. Let them live... please, Masao...!" She cried, trying to persuade the man.

She leaned forward, putting both her hands around her belly.

She looked up at him, smiling.

"Masao... Please..." She cried, the tears still falling making her smile break.

"Akane, you have committed a hellish sin. They cannot live," The man replied coldly.

She shook her head, tightening her grip.

"Masao" She whispered. The man shook his head and cut her sentence short.

"You can't live... either" A loud scream and a bang silenced the whole building, not to mention the beautiful woman, lying in her own blood. The man swiftly exited the room, leaving her to die. The woman coughed quietly, her tears seeping into her mouth. She tried to get up, not letting go of her stomach. She clumsily rested her feet on the ground and fell, her hands protected her fetus. She dragged herself out of the room, blood smearing across the floor. In the hallway, she got onto her knees, making he just tall enough to reach the knob of a large white door, the opposite to all the other marble cream ones. She dragged herself into a dark sanctuary-like room, but she ignored the raging fire behind the walls and the coffin on the bench. She dragged herself to another door wearily, her stamina was running out. In the room was a large but old staircase, she dragged herself down. It was long and hard for her, but as she reached the bottom step, she wasn't exhausted. The room was empty and dark, the walls and floor unattractive grey concrete. She lay down in the middle of the room and squinted in pain.

"This is the best I can do..." She whispered, and put both her hands on her stomach.

"Sayonara" She whispered, and a bright blue light emitted around her like an aurora, two small glass-like spheres rested in the light and the woman's body started to decay into bright golden speckles of light.

Suddenly, a black and white image flashed across quickly, more flashing until I came to the same woman being shot from behind and falling to the ground. Another flash, the pictures drifted out from black and white to color quickly and the pictures were too brief... what was this? At the last second, a flash of bright brilliant red hair flashed across; and finally just that bright blue light.

Oyasumi, Chika.

AN:

After one part (Line 7) Chika shouldn't know that Len is a Baku, so he is forced to kill her. Also, he wanted to get it over with.

Other than that, my lips are sealed til next chapter. Can you guess what's going to happen? I hope not! No, just kidding. Rack your brain for a somewhat obvious answer...
