A/N: You ppls should be happy! I put up three chapters in one update! Oh yes something that I don't think I mentioned, but have been trying to remember to mention. (Gomenasai if I have talked about this already ^^;) About the rating, yes I realise that this doesn't really seem like a PG-13. Well mabye it isn't, but anyways I rate all of my fics this, so this one got it too. Heck, some of my other fics aren't the way this one is and they still are PG-13. So no I won't change the rating, just bare with me on that.

Chapter 12- Syaoran

Yue had told me what was wrong with me after I had awaken. This was shortly after he...fed me. But three weeks had passed since then, and I had come up with a plan not to feel that way again. I would go to the human school, and then another day I would stay home. I tried to stay out of the sun, for Yue told me to for a little while.

Now to come up to the present time. I had found out that a night club for my kind had just recently opened. Ashi had invaded my hunting grounds. Yes there had been plenty of other vampires in this town, but all of them were weak fools, and they knew that Yue and I hunted here once before. Now we have claimed our territory. We tolorated the weak ones, but I would not tolerate Ashi. I hated her too much. And when I came walking to her club, I got even more of a reason to hate her.

I had walked up to The New Last Blood. (Ashi really can't think of any new names...stupid child.) only to see through a window, the bodies of my kind and blood covering the floor. That didn't bother me much. But then I saw Sakura. Holding a sword. Her brother was unconcious on the floor. What really infuriated me, was the fact that Ashi was about to feed off of Sakura.

I blew the door open with my mind. It made a huge bang. This distracted Ashi.

"Syaoran?!" She shreiked going paler than usual. Then her fear turned to scorn and hate. "You are on my doorstep, so you cannot harm me! This here is my turf! I claim it!" She then turned back to putting her fangs to Sakura's throat.

"Ashi. This entire town belongs to Yue and myself. And that girl is mine," I hissed.

Ashi once again turned away from Sakura, only now with annoyance. "Syaoran, who are you to claim this hunter that wandered into my club?"

A smile from me. "She has been mine since I first met her. You will not touch her ever again."

Ashi laughed. "Are you challenging me to a fight over this little vampire hunter, and over turf?"

I nodded.

"This time I won't be mistaken of your power. Plus I also heard that you were weak, so-"

I cut her off by hitting on the pain centers in her mind. She shreiked.

"Syaaaaaaaooooorrrraaaaaannnn! P-please! S-stop i-it!" She screamed through the pain I knew she was feeling.

I was causing the pain with my mind. Easy to do. Find the parts of the brain that control pain and then keep hitting at them physcicly. I didn't stop.

"O-onegai!!!!!!!! T-t-this is u-u-nbearable! AAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!"

I stoped. Mabye I shouldn't have. For she attacked me right back. In the same way. Even though pain shot through me I didn't show it on my face or in my voice.

"You know Ashi, this fight is to the death," I stated, managing to keep a waver out of my voice. God damn it that hurt! I smiled again. Once more, it was useful for Ashi backed up. What Ashi didn't realise, was that while I had been stricking her pain centers, I had invaded another part of her mind. I snapped off the control she had on the pain centers in my mind. Ashi recoiled visibly.

"H-how did you do that?" She asked, astonished.

"I learned it from my father of course," I whispered. My smile was gone. Now was the time to use all the power that I had from Yue. Ashi was slammed back into a wall. I was there in an instant, holding her there with one hand on her throat.

Ashi tried to break my wrist, and succeeded a number of times, but I felt the pain from far away, and the bones healed right back up.

"Now you listen here, Ashi. This city of Tomoeda is mine and Yue's. You get out. And You had better leave this girl and her brother alone! They are mine also," I hissed, getting close to her face.

"How are you going to seak me out in this city? Even you can't do that!" She laughed in my face.

Once again, I had reason to smile. "Ashi...I can get the kind of hold on your mind that can't be acheived normally," I purred in answer.

Her black eyes filled with fear. "No...that has only been done once! Then it was deemed not right! It isn't right!" she shreiked.

"Since when do we have laws or care what's right?" I asked hotly. Then I moved closer and removed my hand from her throat. But I held her by the shoulders against the wall.

"Y-you can't! You can't have my blood!" Ashi screamed. "We were supposed to fight to the death!!!!!"

"Well, then mabye I'll kill you when I'm done so then you'll be dead. But just in case you get away, I have to have some way to tell if you come to my territory," I answered coldly.

I bit into her throat. Her blood flowed sweetly into my mouth. The normal taste, but with the immortal exlier that was there also. I had never done this before, taken the blood of my own kind. I didn't plan on doing this ever again. It was hard to stop drinking though. Her blood was so much better than a human's...but this was the only time I would ever do this. With her blood came power. Even more power than I had before. I felt Ashi's mind seep into my own. So much power and control...

I stopped drinking, and Ashi slumped. She still lived, but was now thirsting for blood after I took so much.

"H-how could you?!" She asked in rage.

I just stared on impassivly. "It had to be done. You wouldn't learn your lesson."

Ashi glared up at me and then grabbed a stake that had fallen from Touya's hand when she had hit him.

"My mind is no longer yours! I will NOT become weak!" she shouted to my mind. Then she lunged past me, keeping the stake out, and went for Sakura's neck.

"NO!" I shouted. In an instant Ashi had burst into flame. She dropped the stake and backed away from Sakura quickly. That was it. I had given her the choice to live, but she ruined it. "Die Ashi!" I hollered. The whole place erupted in fire. A fire that no one would be able to put out for a long time. I took Touya, Sakura, and myself away with my mind.

I had just saved two humans. One I knew I loved, the other I tolerated because he was related to her. But I couldn't keep on like this. I would become myself again, with only Sakura as the exception. Everyone else was going to be fair game, and next time I wasn't going to save her from the natural order of things. Plus, the girl was a vampire hunter like her brother. And she used the same sword that Nadeshko Kinomoto used against Yue and myself several times. That is until I killed her. How could Sakura love me back with that? She is human and I am not. That is how it is. My kind are ment to hunt humans, not love them.

Humans are supposed to be prey right?

Later that night....

I had gone out to have some fun with my new strength, but then returned home after a few hours. Otou-san was already there.

"Your aura has changed Syaoran," he said the instant I walked in.

I smiled (nicely) at him. "I would think so. Ashi is dead by the way," I stated, saying the last part offhandedly.

Yue raised an eyebrow. "Oh really?"

I nodded. "Otou-san, I drank her blood, to give her a chance to live, but then she chose to die so I killed her and left the building burning," I answered the unasked question of "how did she die." I was a little disturbed at what I had done.

Otou-san must have noticed this, for he walked over to me and held me close.

"Daijoubu...daijoubu. These things have to be done occasionally. You shouldn't let your emotions get to you like that. She was invading land that wasn't hers so it had to be done," he mumured.

I nodded into his chest. He was right. And the memory of Ashi sparked rage again within me. But it calmed down as I stood there with otou-san. Not my real father, but a father. I loved him. But I loved Sakura also. I loved Yue, who was my own kind, but I also loved a human. Both in two different ways, but it was still love. Something I hadn't thought of for the longest time. I am so confused...
