This fan fiction stresses me out mainly because I drag on the story. I really wanted the story to finish up before May. I wanted to make no more than 30 chapters. But this is impossible. So what's going to happen is that I'm going to put a cliffhanger at the end of the LAST chapter for readers to determine the fate of Ayato and Yui. If I am being honest, after I finished writing chapter 21, I was not happy with how the story was going to turn out. I take writing very seriously and I actually want to turn into something more than just writing fan fictions. The reason why I wrote the AyaYui fan fiction was because a lot of people wanted it because I promised to write one. This fan fiction will be the last thing I write for the DIABOLIK LOVERS fandom! SO PLEASE DON'T ASK FOR A SEQUEL!

Yui was very close to Ruki as he ate his food in silence. The air was thick and her heart pounded loudly in her chest. Yui ate in small bites and avoided eye contact.

"Do I make you nervous?" Ruki asked as he set his fork down. His blue greyish eyes stared intensely at hers, it sent her shivers down her spine.

"W-What do you mean?" Yui asked.

"It seems as though you're waiting for me to pounce on you." His blue grayish eyes narrowed and it struck her heart.

"I-I have no idea what you're talking about…" Yui stuttered shyly and looked up to him only to look down.

He sighed. "This lunar eclipse isn't exactly the best thing in the world right now."

"What do you mean?"

"I crave more blood and my power weakens when it's the lunar eclipse."

"Same goes for your brothers?"
"Same goes for every vampire."

Yui fell quiet.

"I've noticed something different about you."

"W-What?"

He touched a lock of her hair and said, "Your hair has gotten a bit longer than usual."

"I never even noticed! Or check in that matter…"

"You don't casually flaunt yourself in front of your mirror?"

"I do… but I ignore the minor details. My hair isn't anything too special." Yui would sometimes put on makeup, but would rarely do her hair. It made her smile a bit to see someone check on her least important features.

"Although… what you said earlier. You don't feel… human?"

Yui nodded. "It's weird… Ever since Cordelia no longer possessed me, I felt as if she never left entirely."

"That is quite strange…" They finished their meals. Yui felt satisfied with today. Ruki was about to ask her something but was interrupted by, "I should check up on Masami."

When Yui stood up and turned her back to head out, Ruki grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him.

"R-Ruki!"

His fangs bit harshly down her neck and sucked her blood. Yui whimpered at the pain. He moved to another location: her shoulder, collarbone, and finally her wrist.

His touch and fangs didn't feel the same… Yui sat on his bed after he finished. She felt a bit light headed.

"Was my performance not of your satisfaction?" Ruki questioned.

"Ruki… It's just that I am no longer with Ayato… I'm not interested…" Yui knew about the Adam and Eve plan and Ruki's desire to be Adam.

He sat next to her. "Livestock it's simply the lunar eclipse that caused me to behave differently."

"I see…" Yui said understanding.

"So you plan to stay here?"

Yui shook her head. "I just want Masami to heal up and rest a bit and then we're off."

"You're… kidding?"

Yui shook her head. "We can't stay here for too long. Ayato's looking for me. I just know it. I don't want to go back to him. I just can't."

"Isn't this a bit unfair to Karlheinz. He had a plan for the both of you to shape the Demon World."

"I don't care about the plan. I just want to go back to my normal life." Yui felt a sharp pain again and groaned. Strange… she felt different. She felt a bit more thirsty and hungry.

"Do you even have any idea what you are exactly?"

"What are you talking about?"

(pause)

Hours had passed and Ayato was standing in front of the Mukami mansion. The last place he'd expect. He was getting tired and felt himself get weaker and weaker.

Yui was all he could think about.

He walked over to the front door of the Mukami mansion. He couldn't fly anymore due to the damn moon. He needs to rest. He smelled her scent. She's here!

Ayato felt satisfied that she was here. As much as he hated the Mukami brothers, it's better if she stayed there and not anywhere else.

"Don't move." a strange voice said behind him.

He felt the presence and it was without a doubt a human.

"Who the hell-" and that was his last words he said because he was knocked out.

A crowd came out and started to wave their torches and their guns. "COME OUT DEMONS!"

(pause)

"Masami what are you doing?!" Yui entered the room and noticed Masami attempting to jump out of the window.

Masami turned around and her eyes softened. "I was hoping you'd be back. Let's get the hell out of here!"

"Let's not rush things! You're still hurt!"
"I'm not waiting around. Kanato's after us!" Yui gave Masami a quick recap of everything. "Just great… more vampire scums to kill us both! Listen Yui, I left Kanato for a reason and I want to get the hell out of here alive!"

"I do too… but…" Yui looked down. She didn't know what to say.

"But what? You still like Ayato or something? Wake up! He's a piece of shit that made our lives miserable. We can put it all behind us if you just come with me. Let him go."

"I...I don't know."
"We'll be somewhere safe! We'll be with your dad and change our names to avoid being caught by them. Come on Yui! Don't be stupid!" Masami let her hand out. "You gotta think about yourself. You'll get hurt again."

"...Masami, they'll always find us. Once you meet with a vampire, it's never over."

"You want to know why it's never over… for you?" Masami walked up to Yui angrily. "You keep going back to him. You're still in love with him!"

"W-What?!" Yui was surprised. "I am not in love with him! Not anymore!"

"Don't give me that bullshit, Yui. It's all over your face. You want him to come look for you!"

"No I don't!"

"Answer me this: did you or did you not call your dad and told him where we are?"

Yui was quiet.

Masami glared at her, "You're not a victim… you're just a fucking pushover."

"How could you say that?! I saved you from Kanato! You could've died! I knew how the Sakamaki brothers were! I just wanted to protect you."

"PROTECT ME?!" Masami laughed hysterically. It was a laugh of a broken maniac that drew her to tears. "You're so fucking selfish! You're preventing me from leaving this fucking place because you want to get back with Ayato that'll cost my life! Face it Yui, you're an idiot. You're not a saint nor a sinner, you're the devil, his goddamn self."

Masami turned her back. "You can die here like the stupid bitch you are but I'm getting out here! I'm done with you!"

Yui reached out to her only for Masami to run to the window and said her last words, "If you tell Kanato where I am, you prove me right. Just… stay the hell away from me. I'll figure it out."

And with that she left.

Yui had to sit on the bed and think what on earth is going on with herself. It couldn't be possible. It just never made sense. The signs were never clear. It just wasn't possible. Yui stood in front of the mirror and checked her body side to side, front and back, and was on the verge to cry again. No he could be wrong… He's wrong…

Yui heard a crowd outside and began to walk towards the window and her jaw dropped. Men were waving torches and guns and were screaming "Come out demons!".

Ruki rushes inside the room alongside the Mukami brothers. "We can't stay here! Take the other girl and let's get out of here!" Kou shouted.

"Where is she?" Ruki asked.

"She… she left."

"What?" Yuma said. A bullet came through the window and it caused Yuma to grab Yui by the arm and they ran.

Yui noticed how weak they were getting due to the moon. They were surrounded once the raging men burst down the door.

Out of the crowd, a man with priestly attire with a familiar face looked surprised at the girl.

"Father?" Yui said.

"Yui!" They exchanged a hug.

"I'm so glad you're okay!" Her father cheerfully said.

"Father what's going on?" Yui questioned. The atmosphere felt dark and heavy. It was unsettling to see how the men were riled up.

"You see… vampires have made human life unbearable with such demon eyes that feast on innocent blood. I just could not stand by and allow this demonic behavior to continue. Vampires like the Sakamakis' especially are known for doing that."

"But… why did you send me to Sakamaki manor if you knew what they were?"

"Because I owed Karlheinz. I used to work for him and I'm sick and tired of his foolishness."

"Karlheinz…" Yui noticed his gun and Yui took a step back. "You said that killing was bad… why do you have a gun?"

Silence.

Her father slowly said, "Because I am a vampire hunter."

Yui gasped. My father… a vampire hunter?! No way… No way.

"But you're a priest!"

"That's my side job."

"You kept this away from me."

"It was to protect you. From them… and from him." A man pulled out Ayato who was tied and badly beaten.

"Ayato!" Yui ran to him.

"Do not touch that vile beast!" Seiji pointed his gun at her. Yui was shaking. "It seems you are attached to him. So that demon was right."

"Father this is not who we are! Just let them go!"

"Oh… I see… this is what you are. A dirty whore for these demonic beasts!"

Yui began to cry onto Ayato.

"Come stand by me! We are leaving!"

"NO!" Yui shouted. "I'm not going with you!"

"It seems as though my daughter no longer exists… just dead skin. So be it. I'll kill you all!"

Yui was knocked out before she could say anything else.

(pause)

Dungeon. Yui felt uncomfortable with these chains. Ayato was next to her and felt the need to call out for him.

"He's out cold, Livestock." Ruki said, a bit annoyed. "Honestly I thought you said you were no longer interested in him."

"...I lied…" A part of her still had love for Ayato. Ayato had protected her from a lot. Even though their love is confusing… she still wanted...

"As expected of you."

"I'm sorry Ruki I really thought I could get over him… but even when I'm mad he always looks for me. I can't hate him…" Masami is right. I am selfish.

"Hmph, I suppose you know how to get out of here? My brothers are in danger and I'm weak."

"M-Maybe I could try." Ruki stared at her. "I can try to…"

"Don't! Remember what we talk about. You're putting yourself and your body in danger."

"I know but we can't sit here and wait for our deaths! We've gotta do something!"

"... Fine."

Yui managed to break the chains. She releases Ruki's chains as well as Ayato's. Yui shook Ayato trying to wake him up.

Yui held on to Ayato. "I'm sorry…"

"We've got to go!" Ruki said. He helped get Ayato up alongside Yui.

Ayato fell on his knees.

"If he doesn't get any better…"

Yui wrapped her arms around Ayato, and begged for him to get up. "Please… wake up…"

Yui felt tears coming down her face.

"We… I need to get you out of here. You're not fit for this."

"I'm just like you now! I-I'm not going anywhere!"

"It doesn't matter! We'll be back for him!"

Before Yui could argue back, Ruki pulled her up and they both ran away.

(pause)

Ayato's head hurts. It hurts so much he thought it'd spilt opened.

How long was out for? He thought to himself. Ayato got up slowly and felt his powers weakened.

Dammit… I'm not gonna die like this. Where is she? Ayato was in the dungeon room. He saw blood on his bands. His blood. Those bastards are gonna pay for what they did to me.

He began to walk quickly, ignoring the pain. I will not let them win. I won't let them take Yui.
