Red Roses

Chapter 1: Sympathy of Sorrow

Dear Readers,

I am skipping the author's notes do to this is a sequel to Oh, Dark Night. This one takes place a half a year after the pilot's found out Trowa, also know as Dmitri was a vampire, and eventually all minus Milliardo, and Wufei were given the kiss of eternity.... Only one person dies, minus the tons of dead prostitutes, that effects (Part of my plot, I will, hereby allow any of you to post this, and Oh, Dark Night, or ANY story of your choice without telling me anymore.... (Breaks into fake sobs) It's killing my e-mail space! I can't have my box overflowing! (Stops crying, returns to information.) Now, I'm sure you all want to get to the new story, but, however, I have two new things to state.... One, for those who have not heard yet, I am now part of the Yu- Gi- Oh! section!! Whohoo! And Chibi Games, is a BIG success, the biggest so far, anyway.... With 160- 170 reviews, also I am now joining the Yu- Yu- Hakusho! section as well! Second, for those who have not checked out Gundam HG (Heaven's Gate, for you Madame Ruby, who bugged me over the matter....) is a really good fic, and needs support for me to post later chaps, there is death, but Heero, and Wufei still play major parts, three chapters are up already, the author's notes include the prolog, and it has YAOI! 1+2, and a sh**load of new characters, new gundams, and new found abilities, based in a futuristic setting for Duo it was based (Kinda) Off of the first Cowboy Bebop episode I saw, I thought it was (Pretty) good, but give a Funny rating of 6, do to lack of interesting plot line, and unclear solutions to problems. (No offense to fans, but, the show just isn't that interesting to me!)

I do not own Gundam Wing, enjoy the show, Funny Bunny out!

...

Quatre woke to the night, as he had now for about six months. Lestat as he had now for two nights stood at the window, he knew something, but what, Quatre couldn't tell. 'I know you know what I know...', he had said in thought the riddle.

It wasn't that he didn't like Quatre, no, rather, he prefer to have his mind to himself, away from the others. Duo, was an open book, one Quatre couldn't read, or hear, or sense, because Shinigami had created him to the night. He had been looking just as concerned as Lestat, for aside from their differences, the two were very much the same. Something was concerning the two, something that had been after their fight with that last group who had tried to kidnap Milliardo, and Wufei, two mortals that had once been allies in the struggles for peace. "You seem thought driven, tonight, Quatre.", Dmitri stated, smirking slightly.

"It's just, I think they're keeping something from us, those two.", Quatre stated.

"I know you're right, they are, and they're doing a good job of it too, don't you think?", Dmitri stated, "Lestat's never wanted anyone to find his secrets, he's been too hurt by that too many times.",

"When is Tut suppose to show up?", Quatre asked, he really wanted to know what he did about mortals, the thing that nearly caused his death.

Armand's eyes flickered just a slight, a detail most mortals would never see at all, "He won't pass that on, he'd rather it die with him, than let it torture another for his eternal life.",

Quatre sighed, "Where's Heero got off to then?", Quatre asked.

"To hunt.", Dmitri replied, green eyes looked at him.

Dmitri use to be the silent, and ever mysterious Trowa Barton, one who seemed full of secrets, however, hid them behind a gauze of disguise. He was still Trowa, just a more open one. He sat, looking at the glass ceiling... Quatre looked at the night's sky.

"I remember living in only night... It stirs one's imagination as to what day is at times, what it looks like, feels like...", He again looked at Quatre, "You fall asleep, knowing day, seeing day, touching it till your body allows you no more.",

"That is because of you, Trowa.", Quatre stated.

"You still insist on calling me that, only you, the first mortal friend I had.", Dmitri gave him a radiant smile, reserved only for those he truly held as friends, "You are wise, wiser than most vampires your age, but if you don't watch yourself, one of these days, you'll run out of questions to ask."

"And why is that?", Quatre inquired.

"You'll have all the answers.", Dmitri stated.

"Duo and Lestat have left for their hunt, what of you?", Dmitri asked.

"I am going to where Heero goes, though I hate to kill, and you know that, but...", Quatre stopped.

I need the blood, he thought to himself.

"You're right, you have gone two nights without, better not make three.", Dmitri stated.

With that Quatre left the safety of the building to purge the dirty streets for his meal. 'I really hate doing this...', he thought to himself, as he walked, his hands in his pockets. Suddenly something grabbed him by the back, he whirled around nearly hitting as he could, but he weakened that to a human's punch.... It was only Heero.... "Don't do that ever again, unless you want to be out cold.", Quatre suggested.

"I'll have to remember that.", Heero noted, "You out here to feed?",

"Yeah, I really hate to.... But, if I don't than all I'll do is need even more.", Quatre stated.

"Right, and better these sluts, than anything else.", Heero stated, "I got two good meals in tonight, not too bad either.... Both were clean pretty much, it's at the Oasis Lounge or whatever the fuck it's called...", Heero informed.

"Right, clean, but still evil ones, got it...", Quatre headed in the direction Heero had come from.

"Hmm. What you doing pretty boy?", came some slut's voice.

"Waiting for dinner.", Quatre stated in a low voice.

Before she knew what had happened he was on her, drinking in all that she had, each thought, each memory... Then the heart slowly ceased, and the brain went dead, she was dead, the soul had left behind an empty corpse. "I am truly sorry.", Quatre stated to the corpse, he quickly left, the smell of death was much too strong.

...

It had been a couple nights later that Quatre woke with Duo's heart shaped face in his. Only there was something about him that showed something awful had happened, and that Quatre had to know what. "What is it Duo?", Quatre asked.

Duo looked away for just a second, then turned back to Quatre... "Rasheed.", Duo stated, seriously.

That was all that Quatre needed to run over to what had once been his estate, he snuck past all the late hour maids, and butlers, and into Rasheed's room. "Rasheed...", Quatre stated.

It was close to his death, very close, Rasheed was dieing, Quatre could tell by the way he looked. His eyes opened, and crinkled into a joyous smile. "Master Quatre, I knew... You weren't dead.", he said.

"I'm fine Rasheed, I'm here with you.", Quatre stated.

"I know.... Master? What is different about you?", Rasheed asked, "Your beauty is stunning, have you passed?"

"Yes, and came back as a new, you won't though... That is why I came to bid you farewell, my friend, and a happy peace.", Quatre gently kissed his hand, and smiled.

"You, you were.... I understand now master, how you mean.... Returned....", his heart stopped, and Rasheed died.

Blood tears trickled down Quatre's face, he licked them off in his morning.

...

He hadn't bugged for three days now.... And still Quatre cried, he was morning his loss. Duo watched him slip into his meditative state, one he had done while both were still human.... To cleanse the soul, but this, this was Quatre's belief, he was fasting for four days, to help him honor the spirit, though it was gone, and he knew. Duo understood, he had lost too many to count, so he respected Quatre's way of morning, as Quatre had his. "Give him time...", was all he stated to Heero when he tried to force feed the blonde Arabian.

...

So things went, and gone, and soon Quatre was himself, pretty much, only now he realized he was going to outlive his friends... He felt himself being drowned by the thought of each leaving him.... Things would change, and he, luckily would stay very much the same, minus his experiences. Tut came up behind him.... "We all have had these thoughts, Quatre, just look at the better days, and be glad they do not have to live as we do....",

"You're right, I should, but, still, it is painful knowing that all you know will someday die...", Quatre stated.

Just as he had with his father, Quatre soon forgot his sorrow, and was completely done with his thoughts of loss.

And so things turned back to normal, with falling asleep while watching the sun rise, and waking just to see stars of night...

...

I need to ask two things, 1. Do you like this so far? and 2. Do you want YAOI?!!!!! Personally Ann Rice's vampires have had Yaoi lemons, but no lemons, just Yaoi from me this time... But I need to know if you want some, or not Review with your opinion, Y for it N if not....

End Chapter: Next we'll see what's up with the two Preventers!
