Chapter Two
400 years later
Duo woke up as he heard footsteps on the staircase. Now he would find out where Heero had been going during the night. He hid in the shadows next to the stairs. The door opened and the full moon shone down on Heero, his friend.
"Heero," Duo said stepping out of the shadows, his braid swinging behind him, "Where are you going?"
Heero grunted, "Duo, go back to sleep, it's to dangerous to be around me right now."
"Why Heero? Why do you always come out at night, like a bat? What's wrong with you?" Duo touched Heero on the shoulder and he flinched, stepping away from the brown haired boy.
"Duo, go back to sleep," Heero turned to face him, his dark blue eyes glowing. Duo's light blue eyes glazed over and he collapsed to the floor asleep. Heero stared at the young man on the floor, a light autumn breeze rifled his brown hair and he silently walked out the door of his mansion and flew off into the night.
Heero stood in an alley, watching for his prey. A young woman walked past and stopped, looking into the shadows. She walked down the dark alley towards him. He could see the beat of her blood through her jugular. He stepped forward and wrapped his arms around the girl. His face close to hers, he whispered,
"Your name young lady?"
And smiled, showing his fangs. Her eyes widened and she tried to pull away, but he was too strong and she was already lost.
"Erin,"
She stuttered as his face moved close to hers. His blue eyes began to glow and he leaned even closer so that their lips touched. She melted in his arms and fell to the ground; he smiled hungrily. He knelt over Erin's body and sank his teeth into her neck and drank her blood as her dying body gave one last scream. He sat up and licked his lips, then disappeared into the night as footsteps pounded on the stones on the sidewalk.
A warm autumn breeze blew through her room through an open window, waking the sleeping girl up. She got out of bed and stood by the window, looking out. Standing on the roof of the building across from her window, was a man. The wind blew her black hair across her face and the man's cape moved slightly, showing his glowing blue eyes and brown hair. They stared at each other, her green eyes locked on his blue ones. He smiled slightly and jumped at her, opening his mouth wider, revealing pointed fangs as she stepped back in fear, falling onto the floor as he landed above her.
Krystal woke up in a cold sweat, panting. This was the third time this week that she had had this dream, it had to mean something. She sighed and pushed her wet bangs out of her face, she knew she wouldn't get back to sleep, so she walked to the kitchen too cook a midnight snack.
Heero walked down the stairs of his home, Duo still lying where he fell the night before. He knelt beside the prone form of his friend and shook him,
"Duo, wake up."
"What happened?"
Duo muttered as he rose up from his position on the floor.
"You were sleep walking,"
Heero stood up and walked into the other room as Duo sat up, rubbing his eyes. He turned on the TV and changed it to the news. A reporter came on; he was standing in the alley where Heero had been the night before,
"Reports of dead women have been springing up all over the city. Last night another woman was found dead in this alley. The body was of the late Erin Dent; her death brought the total up to seven. All of the young women were between 20 and 24 and were found with all blood removed from their systems, presumably through two puncture wounds in their necks. The murders started a week ago at the start of fall. All women are being warned to finish all errands before nightfall and if necessary, to be accompanied by another. Now we'll go to Don for the weather..."
Heero turned the TV of and Duo stood behind the couch, staring at the blank TV screen.
"Weird huh."
"Hn,"
Heero grunted.
"Do you want anything to eat?"
Duo said, heading to the kitchen.
"Hn"
"You know, I don't know why I still am living in this place, you never were the conversational type, you have almost nothing to eat and it's hard to get girls with you always scaring them off."
Heero just grunted again. Duo sighed and shook his head, then looked at his friend intently,
"You don't look so good, maybe you should get some rest."
With that he continued his pilgrimage to the refrigerator.
Krystal walked down the street as the sun set behind the clock tower. She had just her last class at the university. A young man in black bumped into her as he ran past and knocked her down, her books spilled on the sidewalk. He stopped short, his waist-length brown braid trailing behind him and bent down, picking up her books,
"Sorry, I didn't mean to,"
He started to say as he looked up at her. She stared at his light blue eyes, entrapped by the all to familiar gaze.
"It's alright,"
She managed to mumble when she finally snapped back to reality. He smiled and it hit her, this was the man from her dream. His smile revealed that he didn't have fangs, but it was most definitely him. He stood up; holding her books and pulled her up.
"I'm Duo Maxwell,"
He said when she was standing holding out his hand,
"What is your name?"
"Krystal, Krystal Trinkets."
She took his outstretched hand and shook it,
"Pleased to meet you."
Duo stared at the black haired girl she was so beautiful, her green eyes reflecting the setting sun.
"Why were you running so fast, are you late? If so, I'm sorry for keeping you.."
Duo cut her off mid apology,
"It's ok, I not late for anything, I just love to run."
Duo smiled and offered his arm to Krystal, his eyes twinkling,
"Well Krystal Trinkets, would you care for an escort to wherever it is you are going?"
Krystal laughed and took his arm,
"I would be honored Duo Maxwell, home is this way."
She pulled him in the direction of her apartment as they started chatting like old friends.
Above them, standing on a roof, a lone figure watched them.
"Thank you Duo, you have saved me a world of trouble,"
He smiled slightly and leapt onto the next building trailing them as they walked down the street, his short brown hair blowing in the wind.
Letainajup, I thank you for your review and I apologize for using the beginning of you fic some much.
