Return to the Night

"I yield… I yield." Croaked a bloody champion lying on the ground with Baca blade raised to deliver the final blow.

"you fought valiantly, but I will only spare you if you swear your loyalty to me." Smirked Baca looking down at the last of the champions.

"I Accept, you have my sword, Baca please." Baca smiled and lowered the blade and sheathed his sword.

"your life belongs to me now never forget that." Baca walked away leaving his enemy bloodied and lying on the ground like all the others barely clinging to life. The crowd cheer as the watched him walk to the center of the arena and raise his sword.

"I Baca son of Brone claim victory in the tournament, is there any champion here that would deny me my right?" Looking around with a smile at all of his vanquished foes, he saw them all with the exception of the dying Eito lower their heads in submission.

the crowd cheered again at the sight of there champion basking in the glow of victory, while Shuzen rose from his throne to make his announcement.

"Baca, son of Brone I recognize you as champion of the tournament." There was a small pause upon his throne as he raised his hands to the sky. "Now everyone to the castle for the wedding and the presentation of the blade of Abel to its new master!"

Aqua watched her father with murderous eyes as he continued his speech to the crowd, but her livid anger drowned out his words. She growled in silence as she fought back her every instinct as a vampire and as an assassin not to challenge her father publicly in this moment, but she knew that she was powerful, however her strength paled in comparison to her father.

Moka waited inside the private room now fully clothed but still the heat of the embarrassing experience laying heavily on her cheeks as her maid once again opened the door and walked inside.

"well, who won?" the young bride asked with baited breath. Moka heart slowly began to sink as her maids eyes welled up with tears.

"my lady Moka, your husband to be is Baca, son of Brone." The emerald eyes of moka fell to the ground as her worst fear were realized. She would be married to that womanizing brute of a man, while it was true all vampiric men had harems even if they had a true mate, but Baca had a habit of collecting wives and as many as he could most of them centuries younger than him.

"I see, and the wedding?"

"to be held in a few short hours my lady."

Moka eyes squeezed shut as reality of this situation seeped in. She would be married to Baca and spend the rest of her life being toyed with until she died, or was broken into submission.

"I- I wish to be alone, for even a moment, please close the door." Moka heard the maid close the door a moment later. Opening her eyes she walked to the nearest wall and softly touched it while the other came up to her rosary. Moka hands slowly clasped around it then with a hard, and firm tug she attempted to rip it off her choker with a loud clink of the chain stubbornly holding on as her reward.

One tugs turned to two then three, each one she grew more desperate to unleash her hidden power but again and again she failed. Leaving the poor girl sobbing as her only chance of stopping this wedding without dishonoring herself or her father just went up in smoke.

Meanwhile in the tower a low dull power grows in strength with each passing second. As it grew it slowly drew the attention of the newly renamed twin guards

"Free at last..." the boy said the words falling from his lips dripping with monster energy as he opened his red eyes.

The young mans eyes quickly welled up with tears as he rubbed his fingers together the most simple of sensations that he had been robbed of for so long finally returned to him. Rising his weight off the ground with his own two legs as his hands lowered, the chains snapping like the were made of dried branches under the force of his strength.

"brother, do you sense that energy."

"I feel it too… its overwhelming." The two brothers shuttered as the drew their swords and stared at the solid cell door.

*BANG BANG BANG*

Came three sudden harsh knocks on the door.

" Bennosuke, Niten would one of you mind terribly opening the door? Id very much like to stretch my legs." came a voice before a set of glowing red eyes came into view through the small window in the cell door.

"I thought he was just a human brother." Cringed Niten as he took a fighting with his mace in his right hand while his bright orange aura wrapping around him ready for battle.

"He is, or I thought he is… there was no trace of this power when they brought him in here." Bennosuke replied while drawing his sword from his sheath while is green aura began to blanket around him

The two vampires stood in the path of the glowing eyed demon on the other side of the door, and as his power grew so did their fear of him. A low chuckle could be heard as the door suddenly flew off its hinges sliding across the stone resting at the twins feet.

"allow me to explain, when the guards brought my body here it was human, however under the light of the blood moon. The true master of this body is freed, my name is Tsukune Aono, I am a vampire." Tsukune stood in the doorway the shadows of the cell expanding in front of him swallowing the light of the room.

"a black aura. 'I've never seen that before." Niten tensed as the two slowly moved in unison to each his flanks while their aura rose even higher.

"I wouldn't do that" Tsukune warned as both vampires charged from either direction there weapons coming for Tsukune flesh with leather intent.

It took a moment for the two vampire twins to process what had just happened. Staring in disbelief Niten mace caught in Tsukune right hand while the blade of Bennosuke was caught tightly between thumb and index finger of Tsukune left hand.

"That's impossible." Niten said his voice losing all of its power as he step back and fell tsukune black aura wrapping around him.

"BROTHER! what's… happening?" groaned Bennosuke falling to one knee while looking down at his aura that was being drank away by the darkness that surrounded him.

"i did warn you… when im hungry I cant hold back." The shadow master said approaching the kneeling vampire. "your life energy was a good appetizer though, I thank you for the meal, however I think its time for the main course."

Grabbing the man by the throat the monster among monsters lifted him out of the shadows, his blood red eyes glowing with desperate hunger, and his prey barely able to lift a finger in his own defense.

"Abel?" suddenly interrupted a voice at the other end of the room that sent a chill up the vampires spine.

"Tsukune!" suddenly cries out an all to familiar voice inside Tsukune mind. Dropping his prey tsukune growled lowly knowing what he had to do but it would mean giving up his freedom even if was just for a few short minutes.

"I know master, go to her." The young vampire from years of mental training pulled forth the hooded man from his circle. Taking the reins the red eyes turned softer and a smile slowly grew on his face

"Hello my love. How I've missed you Electra." The lady in white eyes weld up with tears feeling the undeniable presents of her husband pouring out of this young man standing in front of her.

"ABEL!"

chatting with Massimo: the vampire sat on the freshly repaired thrown his fingers interlocked as he began to chuckle. "so hes awakened." the man crossed his legs and looked up to the ceiling where he knew somewhere the author was watching.

"now then when do I get to be apart of this story?" he asked calmly as the writer shook his head making the vampire growl. "come on its boring here all alone... cand you at least give me some company?" he asked as a bolt of lighting hit the ground as a large six foot five woman with a battle axe appeared her eye a deep red and her blonde hair flowed over her silver plate mail armor. "is that my... my mother-in-law." Massimo gasped breathlessly "MASSIMO! so this is where you've been hiding. you've made my daughter live as a widow for over seven hundred years."

" oh god... ill be alone!"
