They landed in the backyard, barely making a sound. They didn't speak as Aoi held her close as she carried her through the air across the rooftops into the backyard. There was an awkward silence between them. Mariana was holding the tears back as she took a deep breath and Aoi turned without saying a word to leave.

"Aoi…" Mariana spoke, "please… Talk to me…"

"No… Not" she answered in a straight tone unconcerned. She stood with her back turned looking away from Mariana.

"Aoi… Why…" She took a step towards her as her eyes filled with tears, "I don't…"

"I need to leave…" She answered back.

"I thought I was being friendly… If that's the problem… Or with Amie… I saw Mary in her place… I…"

"Enough…" Aoi growled taking a deep breath.

"At least look at me…" She started crying, wiping the tears from her eyes.

She could hear her sigh as she turned, her eyes were narrowed black and cold, Her smile nonexistent as she stared, uncaring at Mariana.

"I don't want you to go to her…" She took a step only to stop quickly. Aoi moved in a blink of an eye, growling, sniffing Mariana's shoulder moving to her neck. It scared her and she knew Aoi could hear her heart racing.

"Aoi..."

"What…" She whispered.

She hesitated, taking a step back, her back touching the wall.

"Stop it… You are scaring me…"

"Would you like me to stay…" She slowly smiled as her fangs appeared from behind her lips, "huh..."

She reached out caressing the side of Mariana's face, her black eyes watching her hand brush back her soft long brown hair exposing her neck. She growled slightly and the tension filled the air.

"I would… Like to ask…" Mariana tried to speak but the words struggled to pass her lips, " AAoi..." She nervously took a breath, as her body started to tremble. Aoi moving her hand along the edge of her robe slowly brushing it to the side, exposing Mariana's breasts. She ran her hand across them with a smile on her face.

"Talk…" She narrowed her eyes, biting her lower lip. Mariana watched as the blood drip slowly down to her chin. She ran her tongue across her lips sealing the wound.

"I will stay…" She smiled, "even talk then… We could fool around, "she smirked as she slowly tilted her head, her eyes were shining like polished coal.

"I could take you here or inside…" She nodded, "get all excited and wet…" She licked her lips, "when it's time to come… I could open my mouth…" She reached out, slowly pushing Mariana's robe to the side exposing her neck and shoulder. She leaned in close, Mariana was becoming afraid to afraid to stop her as she felt her breath on her skin, her lips kissing her neck, then she whispered.

"If I can stay in control… It should be fine… But…" She sighed, rolling her head to the side, glancing at Mariana's scared face. She closed her eyes, and was crying her lower lip trembling. "If not… I would sink my fangs into your flesh," Mariana's body jerked as she placed the tips of her fangs down on her skin.

"My lower jaw would push through your skin, shredding muscle and breaking bone as my black eyes rolled back like a shark taking its prey…" She ran her tongue along her shoulder, then to her neck to her ear, "wouldn't that be a nice talk…" She chuckled slightly, "then when I am done and I can see clearly again, I will smell the blood that is left your body and soaked into the ground, I will go into your bedroom and take Kenta by force than eat him slowly…" She whispered taking a deep breath filling her nose with her scent.

"Stop it…" Mariana struggled to speak, "this… This… Is…"

"It is me…" She slowly nuzzled Mariana's neck, sniffing her hair, "this is what I am…"

"No…" She whimpered.

"Don't you like it…"

"No…" Mariana lowered her chin shaking her head, Aoi could smell the fear and taste the saltiness of her tears. Mariana slowly clenching her fist, still shaking her head as she slowly became angry.

"Aoi..." She slowly tightened her jaws as she felt something growing in her belly.

"Step back…"

"Why…" Mariana could feel her smiling.

"Because…" She took a deep breath, "you told your mother… I would not be harmed… And right now you are hurting me…" She waited for an answer but all she got was silence the only sound was her heavy breathing and Aoi letting out a soft low growl. She sat her chin on Mariana's shoulder then stepped away from her, then was caught by surprise.

"Dammit…" Mariana grimaced in pain, bending over holding her hand tightly, "dammit…" She clenched her teeth as she closed her eyes.

Aoi had taken a step backwards then Mariana with her clenched fist swung as hard as she could, hitting her jaw. She heard a loud smacked, then a snap as she broke her pinky on her left hand. The same hand that she had stitched up earlier. she instantly thought of the stitches ripping and the smell of blood would fill the air, remembering what Aoi had said earlier.

"Aoi... I'm…" She closed her eyes shaking her head as the pain filled her body. She was waiting for her to respond as she opened her eyes, looking around the yard.

She was gone. The night was silent except for a few crickets chirping away. She took a deep breath, hoping to calm herself as she slowly drifted to the ground. She covered her mouth as she sobbed burying her face against her knees.

She had set for a while with her arms wrapped around her knees pulled tightly to her chest. She had long stop crying and only the occasional whimper could be heard. She stared out into the darkness watching the bugs fly around the streetlights yellow glare. Her eyes moving towards every sound that she heard, every blade of grass and ever leaf in the tree. She took a deep breath straightening her robe as she stood up looking at the horizon. she watched as the first rays of sunshine forced the black of night to slowly give way.
