Red Rose
Chapter 3: Immortal or Not?
Milliardo, and Wufei woke in the morning to find themselves on silken sheets, in a very large bedroom, with a Japanese style bath hot, and steaming... They took turns with bathing, before heading downstairs to find all of the others asleep on the floor, facing the skylight window. It just so happened that Wufie stepped a tad close to Heero, causing his hand to reach out, and grab his ankle. Only a few seconds later did he let go. Wufei would've screamed in fright, had Milliardo not stopped him... The two wandered around the place looking here, looking there. They actually found the private rooms of the respectable pilots. Heero's was nothing but a bed, closet, desk, and laptop. Duo's was black, and very gothic, and a big mess, Trowa's was simple, kinda like a cottage feeling to it, and Quatre's was the most soothing, it was a light blue, with a huge bay window, which allowed light to filter into the room. It was so quiet, and tranquil. Milliardo noticed it first, it was lying on the bed, white as snow, it was a book. Zechs went, and snatched it up, being careful as though it could shatter... It was a journal of sorts, but it detailed each killing of each victim that had been reported. However, it showed that they had been watching the thing kill it's prey. One of the pages was filled with possible explanations for the clues.. Other vampires, ghosts, but all were crossed out...
They found one room full of paintings, and statues, music. They had just started to explore the upstairs areas when Milliardo turned to go, only to come face to face with, Heero, which emitted a scream that echoed around the place. "Give me a heart attack!", Zechs stated.
"So what? It's not like I tried to scare you.", Heero stated.
"We've decided something, though Marius doesn't approve of it, we're giving you a choice, and a whole day to think it over, but....", Quatre looked down at his hands, "We want to know if you want to become immortal?"
"No.", Wufei flatly stated, when everyone stared at him, he continued, "I was married once, but she died, so I want to see her.",
"Fair enough.", Quatre stated.
"What about you Milliardo?", Duo asked.
"...", Milliardo looked deep in thought, "Well, you will need help tracking that thing down... Plus, I survived one incident, who's to say I'll live another?...",
"We can give you time to think about it.", Duo stated, again.
"Um... I think I'll do it...", Milliardo stated, then, shook his head with confidence, "I will."
So it was decided that the next night, Lestat, having the most experience in the matter would create a new vampire out of Milliardo....
