Author's note: Yes I know it's been long. I apologize, this was suppose to be updated a week ago though I am busy and still am. So please bear with me once again and enjoy the story.

Sohma: Hiya sohma. I hope it didn't take too long. I am sorry, its really getting hard to write specially since I am focusing on others stories too, plus school work is really getting ugly. Well, I just hope you enjoy the story and let's hope you notice some things I added on purpose. Hm, I might put Nagi's point of view and reason later on for you though there are still a little couple of chapters before that. Thanks for reviewing.

Anonymous: Thanks for reviewing, I hope you enjoy this chapter .

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

Viola or Fujino

"Nyx!" Sayuri shouted as she looked into the furious, golden eyes of her lover.

"Stand back," The master vampire commanded coldly, looking at Sayuri. "Fenrir, I call upon you!"

Soon enough, Nyx's shadow began morphing into a giant wolf.

"Nyx don't this!" the rose master tried once again but failed as she found herself bound by some unknown force. She looked at Chie. "Do something please!"

"I am sorry, Sayuri-sama but this is not my business."

"Chie!"

"Silence!" Nyx shouted, startling both women. She kneeled in front of the beast; for a second the master vampire's eyes softened before the rage took over. "Fenrir do you smell it? Do you sense the Fujino heir?" When the wolf did nothing, Nyx asked once again. "What about his magic?"

Fenrir turned around and pointed at the hall in which at the end was Natsuki's chamber.

"Chie, I want a troop sent to the Viola's place," the dark purple haired vampire ordered. "I want Aoi's coven on this," she added. Then finally with a pat at her wolf she glanced at the short haired woman. "I expect you to do what you do best."

"Nyx?"

"Upon the grave of my sister I will take my revenge!" she vowed silently and glanced at her lover once again. "I will do what I best do."

Sayuri's eyes simply widened, finally understanding the true meaning of everything.

The Master vampire smiled sweetly as she stroked Shizuru's chestnut hair. After a few comforting words and touches from the other, the Hime had stopped her tears and whimpering. Natsuki hoped profoundly she had helped Shizuru's nightmare subside; she truly felt useless in moments like this.

"Shizuru?" Natsuki whispered hearing a change in her lover's breathing and seeing her eyes stirring open.

It took a few blinks before Shizuru finally realized that her head was resting on Natsuki's chest. She wondered if her companion had stayed all night watching over her while she 'slept'.

"Natsuki…" the Hime suddenly found herself hugging the vampire fiercely. "Please!" she pleaded, needing some kind of reassurance, something to stop her haunting dreams. She didn't just need the physical comfort, she wanted to hear, to feel, to know how deeply the vampire loved her.

"Shizu-ru…" the raven-haired once again felt helpless; tears were shedding again and she did what only she could do. "I swear to you, Shizuru. I will do anything to stop your pain, just tell me and I will do it." She hugged the Hime fiercely and cursed herself somehow.

After a few minutes, Natsuki lifted Shizuru's chin towards her. Their eyes reflected love, fear, desperation and need. Slowly, painfully and hesitantly they leaned toward each other. It was a simple kiss, barely touching each other lips but it was enough…for now.

A sudden knock startled both of them and a second later Chie and Yukino came in. The four of them blushed, each of them realizing their situation. Soon after, Nao came and blinked at the scene. Natsuki was wrapping Shizuru protectively as they lay in the bed facing each other. She then turned toward her other companions who were blushing furiously like the couple.

"Well to with hell this," the redhead stated and looked at her Sire. "Hey Kruger, Nyx wants you and Viola at the meeting room."

"Huh? Why would –"

"You two are taking too long!" Nyx irritated voice was heard clearly as she came, Sayuri was next to her. "I bet you two were too tired after having se-" before Nyx could finish her sentence Sayuri shoved a rose in her mouth.

"Please Nyx, refrain from any unnecessary violence that any of us might regret." The Rose Master stated as she watched her lover sputter the remaining petals of the rose. She then turned to look at Shizuru and a giggling Natsuki who now were sitting at the edge of their bed. "Please do forgive Nyx, she can be quite impatient sometimes."

"I blame Natsuki for it," the dark purple haired vampire grumbled, she then glance at the others. "Leave now, this doesn't concern you."

"Look, Shizuru is still a little tired can we do this tomorrow?" Natsuki requested knowing the half sleepless night her lover had. She was trying to suppress her surprise at how her Children and Chie had obediently left at her sister commanded.

"I'd prefer not to, Natsuki." Sayuri smiled apologetically and took a chair from around the room, Nyx however walked closer to Shizuru.

"Nyx," Both the Rose Master and Master vampire half growled, when they noticed how close the playful vampire was getting to the Hime.

"What the hell are you," Nyx wondered, her eyes narrowing suspiciously at Shizuru; if it weren't for a warning look that the brunette had given to Natsuki, the purple-haired vampire would had already been punched or worse.

"Whaa-t?" Rather taken aback, Shizuru trembled suddenly feeling a dangerous aura, uncomfortable with how Nyx gazed at her.

"Fujino," she hissed in return, and when crimsons eyes widened in shock it was enough of a cue for Nyx to take Shizuru by the neck. "You bastard child!"

"Shizuru!"

Natsuki was suddenly thrown and then paralyzed, she glanced at Sayuri and noticed her body trembling and unmoving. Her eyes then turned at Nyx who was now lifting Shizuru and glaring at her. She tried to struggle once again, in vain.

"Nyx stop it! Shizuru has nothing to do with whatever you think!"

"The hell she does!" Her fangs and golden eyes flashed angrily at her vampire sister before looking back at the choking and paralyzed witch. "Tell me, witch! Was your father so scared of me that he chose to change his name!? Did he think I would forget what he had done!? Oh better yet, do you know what that bastard did!? What bloody life he gave to me!? To those I loved?! To my sisters!?"

"Nyx stop it!" both Sayuri and Natsuki yelled, fear and concern for the lives of their most loved ones.

"I won't!" she yelled back at them and tightened her grip on Shizuru's neck. "If killing you will bring him pain, I won't care! A child of his is simply an abomination!"

"Kiyohime!" the Hime cried out loud and felt her the grip on her neck loose a bit. Shizuru could barely see a smaller version of the immense hydra glaring at Nyx from behind her, its seven heads hissing at her.

"Fenrir." The purple haired vampire called and a dark, shadowy wolf materialized in front of the Hydra. "I don't suggest you to threaten me with such a thing, Viola-san." That being said, the Hime was thrown on the bed.

A sudden rush and Natsuki, along with Sayuri, were freed from the spell. Natsuki rushed toward her lover as Nyx stepped back.

"Shizuru are you alright!?" Natsuki could only hug her chestnut haired lover as the Hime took various breaths.

"I didn't do any damage, not enough anyway," Nyx informed, feeling the Rose Master next to her.

"You shouldn't have done that, regardless of Viola-san's parentage," Sayuri stated but then asked, "Why did you stop anyway?"

"I don't give a damn about your problem! You will pay for that, Nyx!" The younger vampire growled, her own eyes flashing golden.

"Natsuki don't!" Shizuru yelled, holding the vampire's arm tightly. "Please, don't do unnecessary things!"

"Do you really want to fight against me? Especially after seeing what I am truly capable of doing, sister?" Nyx half taunted and warned, however her eyes were firmly gazing at the hydra who was still there even though her Mistress was safe from harm.

"She might not be capable of confronting you," a new, older voice was heard from the now opened door of Natsuki's bedroom. An old, gray haired woman walked in glaring coldly at the oldest vampire. "But do you think, you could really defeat me?" She taunted and looked at both beasts, with one order they disappeared. "Be gone, both of you."

"Old hag…" Nyx hissed not slightly surprised at the woman's power over both creatures.

"You are one to talk, after all weren't you the one afraid to continue attacking my daughter when you felt my presence, Lamia?" Maria taunted coldly.

"I was testing her."

"You almost killed her!" Natsuki yelled angrily and irritated.

"Do not test my patient, Lamia." The gray-haired woman stated, now standing face to face with Nyx.

"Then do not test mine either, I did not do all this for nothing."

"'This' meaning threatening the lives of my loved one?"

"I might be a vampire but don't compare me to those soulless murderers."

"You were choking, Shizuru!" Natsuki interjected, her eyes still golden with fury.

"No, she thought she was," Nyx countered calmly.

"I would have never guessed how truly powerful your powers had grown after our last meeting, dear Night." a new, male voice complimented; it would take everything from the oldest Master vampire to not go and cut the head off of this newcomer.

A white haired and brown eyed man stood smirking at the reaction he got from Nyx as everyone felt a sudden rush of air.

"Father…" Shizuru softly gasped.

"Here I truly hoped you were dead, Grandpa," Nyx said having materialized her sword and pointed it at the man.
