chapter ten
"Atobe!" He exclaimed with shock and fear. The Count was standing in front of him, eyes filled with anger, but Atobe's expression reflected nothing more than his usual self-confidence. The vampire opened his mouth and Eiji almost covered his eyes with his hand when he heard the loud shout. "Suck their blood out of their bodies!" That was an order the other vampires wanted to follow badly, it was easy to see when they encircled Eiji- and also Inui. "Boo," Atobe added laughingly, his face coming closer to Eiji's, causing the latter to clench his teeth. But...He glanced at Inui. The professor had told him to carry several items with him, just for the case. Eiji slid his hand under his sleeves, pulling out a small package, which was unwrapped in a fraction of seconds, and tossed Inui one of the items. Holding it out in front of them, both of them found it easy to flee, since Atobe and his cronies twitched away from them, staring at the chain made of garlic and the silver cross each of them was holding.
"Let's go Eiji!," Inui shouted, the advice not necessary. Eiji already had grabbed Syuusuke and was making his way to the entrance.
"Syuusuke.." He softly caressed the addressed one's cheek, feeling the smooth skin under his fingertips. "How are you feeling? You look…pale and weak. Just rest a bit, I'll take care of you," Eiji added, concern audible in his voice. The brunette slowly opened his eyes and straightened up from his lying position. The small group was sitting outside, the forest lying behind them. "Are we?.." Syuusuke asked with soft voice, interrupted by a cough which jolted through his body. "We are free now," the redhead completed for him. "Now we can go where we want to, that nightmare is almost gone. The sun is almost rising, do you see?" Eiji smiled, supporting the brunettes body with his arm. "Never being locked up or imprisoned again?," the other asked shyly, getting a happy nod in reply. "That won't be happen again," the young assistant was promising, seemingly oblivious to Inui's presence. The black-haired man was scribbling into his notebook, muttering words like "It was my triumph; the power of my mind and sense was able to save humanity from the threat of vampires, now that I have the proof of their existence. We all are save if we trust in science and data, if we stay practical and enlightened." The professor was deep in thoughts, imagining what will happen now, since he, Inui, was able to gather such precious data.
"Now...we will stay together?" Syuusuke asked, almost shyly, while burying his face in the crook of Eiji's neck, causing the latter one to blush, his hand raining up to caress the other one's silky, brown hair. He wanted to confirm that, when he felt a sharp pain, which drive tears into his eyes. "…!" The next moment he saw Syuusuke smiling at him, those usually rosy, soft lips stained with dark-red blood, before I was licked away by their owner's tongue. Sensing the source of his pain, Eiji brought his fingertips to his neck, staring at the bloodstains. "What…?" His voice was shaking, giving just a slight impression of the feelings which made him feel like he would collapse right now. It felt like his heart was clenching, before it was ripped up by invisible claws. "Blood, Eiji…" The brunette whispered, his voice lovely and melodic as ever, so Eiji realized. "Just lick it off," the other continued, squeezing the redhead's other hand as motivation. Enamored of his vis-à-vis Eiji did as he was told; his blood tasted unfamiliar, coppery and salty. Nevertheless… "Not…that bad," he whispered, staring in those cerulean eyes which meant the world for him and which were looking at him the way he always had wanted them to.
"Let's be together…for eternity," Syuusuke suggested, his voice lovingly, just a bit mischievous, before he pulled Eiji close to him again, tasting him anew and sucking all life out of him, to fill his veins with the new, poisonous energy which should guarantee, both of them, eternity, freedom and the promise of staying together.
Inui didn't recognize the way his former assistant and his friend were approaching him, sneaky and devilish. His data wasn't supposed to be spread among the other scientists at all.
A bit open, isn't it? Well, it's very similar to the original end, but I tried to insert some of my own interpretation...Hope you liked it nevertheless! X3
