Taichi sat in the front room of the mansion, a cup of coffee in his hand and Mimi at his side. Taichi stole a glance at her. She was wearing a pink camisole with matching Capri-pants, both had the word Princess written all over it in multiple languages. Taichi smiled smugly as he stared at his friend, she was so worried about Sora, Yamato and Takeru that she had become 100% oblivious to the fact that she hadn't made herself beautiful before she left the room. Then again, Taichi and her had known one another for God knows how long.
"Taichi?" Mimi's normally loud voice, was soft and seemed more to be talking to the air then Taichi.
"Yeah, Mims?" Taichi asked. He was a little taken back as Mimi rested her head on his shoulder and placed her hand against his chest. Taichi gulped and put a hand on her back slowly moving it up and down, attempting to sooth her.
"Do you think they'll be back?" Taichi stared at the top of the brunette's head.
"Of course, Yamato won't let anything happen to either of them." Mimi scoffed as Taichi finished. "Why?" Taichi's eyebrow rose fifty feet at the little gesture made by Mimi.
"I'm going to live in America for a few years." Taichi was now confused. He didn't get what either subject had to do with the other. "I'm gonna give Yamato up." Taichi laughed at Mimi's comment. He couldn't believe that Mimi had thought that she had the right to 'give up' Yamato, let alone think she owned him. If anything Sora was the only one that had that right and she never would give him up for any reason. That's one thing that fifteen years of friendship had secured in Taichi's mind. Sora had loved Yamato since they first met and he her. Although, everybody knew that neither of them would admit it to anybody else, let alone themselves.
"Taichi, dear, a girl named Hikari is on the phone for you." Grams' smiled as she handed the phone to Taichi. It was in mid afternoon in Japan, Taichi stared at the reciever for a minute trying to figure out why she had called him so late.
"Hello?" Taichi asked as he finally put his ear to the phone.
"Onichan! I've got terrible news. You can't tell Sora, though, I don't want her to worry." Taichi glanced at Mimi, who was staring at a picture of Yamato, Sora and Takeru when they were 6 and Takeru 2. She seemed so entranced.
"I promise." Taichi promised as he waited to hear the news.
"Sora's moving in with us, because Mimi's moving to America. Takaishi-chan said that she should move in with Yamato-sempai, because he understood being alone. But then Mama said that it wouldn't be good, that Takaishi-chan would be a grandmother before her Yama became a senior in high school. What's that supposed to mean?" Taichi's mouth fell open. His friends' emotions were so clear that even his mother knew what would go on if they lived together. Then it dawned on him what was going on.
"Thanks, Kar. You go and have a good day. Love you." Taichi whispered quietly to his sister.
"Ok, love you too, Onichan." Hikari stopped for a minute. "Ne, Onichan?" Hikari asked sadly.
"What's wrong, Kar?" Taichi asked, starting to worry about the feeling forming in his stomach.
"When are you guys coming home?" Taichi only smiled as he glanced out the window.
"I don't know. Some things have come up and we have to stay a little longer. I'll be home soon though." Hikari made an understanding noise and then she hung up with another bye.
"Sora's way to lucky. She needs some things to happen to her." Taichi jumped at Mimi's voice.
"What do you mean?" Taichi grabbed her shoulders and pinned Mimi so he was starring her in the eyes. "She lost both of her parents in one minute! She was kidnapped and now Yamato and Takeru have gone for her!"
"Yeah right. Yamato's probably kissing her right now telling her how much he loves her. Then Takeru's practicing to become a priest so he can marry-"
"Dude, Mimi, why do you think that Yamato ever liked you more then a friend?! He loves you as a friend, but he made his claim on a girl when he was younger, so I doubt he's interested in any other female, save that one girl." Mimi's eyes narrowed as she looked at Taichi's sincere opinion.
"Humph!" Mimi snorted and turned her back to Taichi.

"Let my child go!" Sang cringed at the voice that boomed from the door. He hadn't thought it possible for him to be there. It had been over four hundred years, but somehow he had managed to arrive the one time that he had his Ciel in his arms of her own free-will. Snag moaned as he felt the hard grasp of a hand on his shoulder, then being torn from Ciel and watching the wall stop him I his sudden flight.
"SANG!" Ciel screamed in fear. Takeru stared at the girl he'd known as Sora very bewildered at the sudden change. Another scream echoed in the small room, forcing Takeru to look at his kidnapper being beaten to the brink of death.
"I made a vow that you would never touch a member of my blood line and not only have you attempted to violate my first female grandchild, but you also summon my child to posses her! You so fucked up the lives of so many members of the Takenouchi blood line, that now you will die!"
"FATHER, NO!!!!!!" Ciel screamed in agony as she witnessed her father beating Sang. "He's not of this world, Father. He no longer lives on the same foods we once did. He is-" The man beating Sang, Ciel's father, merely smiled.
"A Vampire, dear child? Do you mean to tell me that you never wondered how it is that I knew where to find him all of the time? Knew every little detail that has occurred from the night I found you in bed with this creature? Daughter, you are the first child to be born of a mortal woman and immortal man." Ciel's face dropped in despair. She had never thought her father to be a an that walked in the night, but he was so strong, but it wasn't strange for a Blacksmith, then again he did have this alluring glow about him that brought women to him all of the time, yet, he stayed faithful and true to her mother, a woman who would eventually die and leave him alone with their child.
"I was the one that turned Arielle." Sang's face contorted in a mixture of rage and confusion. "She entered my shop bleeding and injured. A fellow vampire had attacked her, but he had not tried to turn her, merely molest the poor thing. So, I offered her one thing that would insure revenge upon the fool that touched her, immortality. Of course, I informed her that you, Sang had been involved in the aid of her attack, and she went to your home and slaughtered everyone except for the little Pierre. That child was so innocent that even your sister on a blind rampage couldn't take the poor child's life. But she did something I hadn't expected though, she started the process off turning you- of course I finished it, but by her doing that she had just helped me find my ultimate reason not to have my child be with this bastard!"
"Bastard!" Sang screamed at Ciel's father. "I'll assume you killed Arielle, too?" A smile played with the corners of man's lips.
"She wanted to kill Ciel. I wouldn't let that happen now, could I?" Sang felt his blood boiling. He stood to face Ciel, but noticed a look of fear in her eyes that he had never seen there before.
"Ciel?" Sang questioned as he watched Ciel's breathing increase, she doubled over coughing and gasping for air. Snag looked around for whatever had done this to Ciel, but found nobody. Sang ran to her side and held her to him, rubbing her stomach trying to stop the pain.
"…Yama…" That faint whisper struck horror and realization into Sang. Ciel was sharing the body of Sora still and both girls were fighting for control.
"Ciel, I'm here for you, Love. Don't give up!"
"YAMA!" Takeru's voice echoed throughout the small town. He screamed out of confusion and fear, praying his brother would hear him.
~\/. /\_/\ .\/~
Yamato stood in front of the blacksmith's shop staring at the old building. He felt his heart race as he placed his hand on the door to push it open. A scream came as the door slowly creaked open. Yamato froze, but recognized the scream as that of his name and belonging to Takeru.
Without a single thought of precaution, Yamato sprinted forwards, praying he wasn't to late to find Takeru and Sora.
~\/. /\_/\ .\/~
"What is happening to her?" Sang asked as he looked at his two slaves. Both of them looked at their feet, too afraid of being right to answer. Neither of them wanted to see Sora die, but they didn't want to see Sang win. They just hoped that Yamato would come soon.
~\/. /\_/\ .\/~
She watched as the blond teen ran towards the back door leading to her master. He would not make it there in enough time to save his precious red head or her nephew. She tossed a small object at the back of the blonde's head and smirked as he fell to the floor and remained lying still.
"My job's done here." She smiled and walked into the room where her master was. "Surprise!" She said enthusiastically as she entered the saddened room.
Sang looked at the girl who had just entered. His jaw dropped as he recognized her.
"Arielle?" Sang whispered in shock.
"Sang." Arielle smirked at her brother. "You've got mere seconds until-" Arielle gasped in shock. Sang noticed a small trail of blood start forming from her mouth, he lowered his eyes to her chest to see the broken broom sticking out of her.
"Arielle!" Sang cried and wet to her side before she fell to her knees.
"I'm sorry…brother…I…I'm…sorry…" Sang stared at the broom that remained in his arms as his sister turned to ash and was blown away form him.
"Bastard!" Sang looked up at the voice that spoke to him. Blue eyes filled of hatred stared down at him. "I will kill you!"
"Not if I kill you first, Nephew!" Sang said as he started to stand, eyes focusing on the blue orbs that now showed no emotion what so ever. "You are afraid, are you not, boy?" Yamato snorted and positioned himself to start battle. Sang merely smiled. "You plan to fight an immortal with what?"
"This!" Yamato pulled out a sword that he had seen on the floor by the entrance.
"Go Onichan!" Takeru shouted from his spot.
"Takeru!" Yamato smiled as he looked at his brother. "Protect Sora!" Takeru nodded, he wasn't going to mention to his brother that he was tied up at that moment.
"Ready?" Yamato asked as he stared at Sang.
"Go!" Sang roared and pounced at Yamato.

"Taichi?" Mimi's normally loud voice, was soft and seemed more to be talking to the air then Taichi.
"Yeah, Mims?" Taichi asked. He was a little taken back as Mimi rested her head on his shoulder and placed her hand against his chest. Taichi gulped and put a hand on her back slowly moving it up and down, attempting to sooth her.
