Chapter 4

The Bite

She slowly lowered down to suck the sweet blood of Soujiro's. Once he got over the initial shock he discarded the deer-in-the-headlights-look, and grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up off of him. She shook her head and her eyes softened and turned blue. Though the fangs still remained pearly white and long. She looked as if she were trying to say something but couldn't because of the grasp he had on her neck, she could barely even breathe.

"Soujiro I don't think she can breathe, you want to let up a little?" Kaoru said in almost hysteria.

"What? Oh, yea sorry its almost an instinct." soujiro said letting go of her so quickly she lost her balance and fell on top of him. Quickly Misao leaped up into a sitting position, which did happen to be on soujiros stomach. She was breathing hard and fast for she couldn't breath.

'Soujiro just, well he almost, no he wouldn't try to, yes he tried to kill you, no he didn't it was an instinct!' Misao thought.

"Soujiro, did you (breath) try to (breath) well, strangle me?" Misao asked in between breaths.

"No! No I wasn't, I don't know what came over me! But, you shouldn't be the one talking you tried to, this is hard for me to say, you tried to bite ME! Me of all people, im not even the one who is closest to you! I was using self-defense, that's all" Soujiro said. The room went silent for a few minutes till Kenshin spoke up.

"Um can some one please explain what just happened here?" every one seemed to be in deep thought for a moment.

"Well I think my DID (it's a mental disease, DID= Distinctive Identity Disorder or a kind of schizophrenia) has just gotten worse and added another personality for me, wasn't that nice of me, and this other side is a vampire which attacked soujiro" Misao said casually.

"Oh" Kenshin said.

"Well this is awkward, listen soujiro im sorry I don't know what my other side is thinking" Misao said.

"I guess you guys cant trust me, im sorry and I understand if you don't want me at your house or anywhere near you for that matter" Misao said.
"Oh no! Misao we want you with us, really we do but if you feel that your other side is coming and our lives are going to be in danger, please warn us." Kaoru said.

"Oh yes of course, but im sure that the black fox will whip her, I think, into shape" Misao said.

"Misao please close your mouth your teeth, which are abnormally long are blinding me" Soujiro said. Misao whipped her hand up to her mouth and felt her teeth, they were long.

"Oh no my teeth, they are still long does that mean im still a vampire?" Misao asked the air, it seemed to know more about her disorder than anyone in that room. Misao put her head in her hands and concentrated on her teeth, maybe if she concentrated on her teeth again then it the reverse effect would happen maybe they could go back in. Nope that didn't work.

"Guys im getting a craving for blood again, and its coming fast! I wont let myself get out of control, I hope" Misao said. Her eyes started flashing from black to blue and finally one was black and one was blue. The side of her face that had a black eye turned white. The other side had her same complexion but the eye wasn't of Misao but of the Black Fox. Everyone figured she let the black fox out so she could handle the new vampire. (In this scene Misao is moving back and fourth fighting with herself a * will separate the voices)

"Who the hell are you? * I am Fumiki, do you have a problem? * Excuse me! * I want to know if you have a problem? Because if you don't could be so kind as to bring Misao back out here she's more easily manipulated than you. * What? Your going to take over Misao, she isn't as weak as you think she is she can keep me, who has belonged to her for several years now, suppressed for almost every day so far * your just weak * no im not weak, im a blood thirsty assassin, besides I don't think Misao would make up a side of her that wants to take over both of us and EAT her friends * Good job I thought it would take you several more minuets to figure out that I didn't belong in here * excuse me? Then what are you and how did you get in here? * Im a spirit of a vampire and I would have just possessed her when she was 13 but at the time she was just about to make you, I cant fully possess a person with DID just the weaker half, well neither half was weak enough so I formed my own side of Misao and have been, for lack of a better word sleeping for the past 5 or 6 years, that's why her craving has been there but she hasn't developed fangs or sucked blood yet, I just awakened about a day ago. * Oh well we don't want you, take a hike. * No way now that I have her and have been in her body for over a year I have to stay here, besides I almost have her just some people are stubborn! * Im not giving up, how could you be so selfish you take over poor Misao in her time of need, when Aoshi leaves and doesn't trust her to take care of herself, she does have me ya know. * And now she has me I wouldn't mind sucking some assassin blood. * Wait you know about our job. * Of course I was not really sleeping more like patiently waiting, I know everything that has happened to you and poor Misao in the past 5 or 6 years, im not keeping count. * Alright well I suggest we fill Misao in don't you * yes very much so, she deserves to know, uhh gag im sounding nice I think this Misao has grown on me. **** (Both of them = ~) ~ Misao come out!  ~ " Misao appeared, apparently shocked.

"Did you guys hear that? They are exactly alike, and im being possessed, this is too weird" Misao said. They all sat there awestruck. They had nothing to say, they've seen Misao fight with herself before but her other sides fight amongst themselves now that was creepy.

"Misao are you ok?" Soujiro asked.

"No I need to bite some one something anything," Misao said. Everyone looked at her in a weird way.

"Sorry you know I do have a vampires soul in me" Misao said.

"Yea, yea I guess so," Kaoru said.

"What are we going to do about this?" Kenshin asked. Everyone thought about this for a minute.

" Ill go back home, soujiro I would appreciate it if you would walk me home so I don't jump on someone and eat them, and ill try to camp it out for a day or two then Aoshi will come home ill explain everything to him, and we can both come see you guys again and figure out what to do, ok?" Misao asked.

"Ok" every one answered back to her.

"Ok soujiro are you ready to go?" she asked him.

"Yea lets go" soujiro said.

"Bye" both soujiro and Misao said.

"Bye" kenshin and Kaoru said.

"Oh and sorry for ruining your evening, I know what you two were planning" Misao said with a wink.

"GOOD-BYE MISAO!" kaoru said.

"Good night see you later" Misao chirped. They both began walking out of the dojo.

"Your not going to like eat me or anything are you?" asked soujiro.

"No look I told you im sorry" Misao said.

"Ok I get it, its ok really im just making sure" soujiro said. By now it had gotten quite dark so they were walking in the dark. They walked in the dark in silence for quite a bit of time. Finally Misao couldn't take her urge to suck blood.

"Soujiro I cant take it I feel like I could die with out it" Misao said.

"Misao you need to calm down take a few breaths, calm down and focus on being yourself" soujiro said.

Misao looked at him as if he had a sign slapped on his shirt saying 'come suck my blood I don't care'

"Misao don't look at me like that" soujiro said. He was getting worried, when Misao was researching vampires on the Internet and he read what she was reading it said that vampires sometimes seduce their victims by any mean necessary to get their blood. That was not good. She wasn't going to come after him was she? Would she? Could she? No, no she wouldn't, she cant, she would never do anything to get him to let his guard down.

'Ok im safe what was I thinking' soujiro thought. Misao leaned in and came within inches of his neck when she stopped.

"Soujiro help me. Please." Misao said in his ear. Soujiro jumped, he hadn't even sensed her there, was this spirit really dead, and could it make her energy disappear? Misao began to walk faster trying to stay away from soujiro; she didn't want to try to suck his blood. She didn't know how this other personality was controlling her like this, and why wasn't the black fox fixing it? This was all to confusing. Part of her wanted to eat her best friends and part of her wanted nothing to do with anyone else, why did she have to pick these personalities? Her life sucks. And to top it all off Aoshi doesn't trust her and he wont understand this whole vampire thing, and what will Enishi think? Crap.

"Oh, hey my fangs they have started to shrink. Yes!" Misao screamed.

"Good" Soujiro said. Misao may have been losing her fangs but she still had that crave. She leaned over and opened her mouth ready to bite. Soujiro just kept walking, they were walking up the road up a hill her house, and it was only over the hill. She leaned in and he didn't notice her until he felt the white teeth touch his skin on his neck. She put her mouth on his neck and bit him as if he were an apple. The skin didn't break but it still left a red mark. She grabbed his shoulders and slowly lifted her mouth off of his neck unsatisfied.

"God damn it my fangs didn't come out in time, I didn't get anything" Misao said. He had a look of shock.

"Misao?" Soujiro said.

"Soujiro I'm so sorry really I didn't mean to, you have to understand that I have DID and this other personality took me over, it wasn't me, well it was but, you know what I mean, I, Misao, would never touch you if you didn't want me to." Misao said honestly. Soujiro believed her and by now they were standing outside her room window.

"Look this is really weird and I believe you, but I've got to go I don't want to wake up Enishi, ill see you later, ill drop by some time tomorrow to make sure you don't eat Enishi" soujiro said. Misao laughed.

"Ok ill be here all day training with this air-head and waiting for Aoshi to show up, that little pompous jer"

"Misao your home, and underneath your window with a boy I don't know, this doesn't look good, Aoshi will be happy to know he didn't invite me here for no reason. I didn't think you would be the kind of girl who would kiss another guy behind his back." Enishi said.

"Enishi, what a pleasant surprise, what are you doing up this late, its nearly (looking at her watch) 12:30" Misao said.

"I should ask you the same thing." Enishi said.

"Well I have had a very weird day and I feel that I cant be trusted walking home by myself, I needed an escort, and I don't know what your talking about, kissing another guy?" Misao said.

"I saw you go after his neck" Enishi said. Misao looked to soujiro who seemed to be oblivious.

"Enishi can we talk about this later, Soujiro im sorry for this dumb Asses actions, please forgive him" Misao said.

"Oh that's quite all right, he was right you did go after my neck" Soujiro said. He said this just to irritate Misao. She seemed very miffed. Yes his little plan to keep her on her toes was working splendidly.

"Soujiro" Misao whispered in agony.

"Yes Misao" Soujiro said.

"SHUT UP! Everything that has come out of your mouth in the past 2 minutes has been crap, I was not all over you and even if you wanted me to I wouldn't! Oh you are so difficult sometimes and Enishi, you have been cocky and self absorbed since the day you arrived at my dojo. You ungrateful little worm, and if you tell Aoshi that I was supposedly "all over" Soujiro, which I wasn't, ill kill you then bring you back from the dead and KILL YOU AGAIN! Mmmm ok well I got that out of my system, I am quite exhausted I will retire to my sleeping quarters now, good night boys" Misao said. She left both guys speechless as she climbed into her window. A few minutes passed and both guys stood there speechless, mouths ajar, and staring at each other. Slowly soujiro closed his mouth but still couldn't say a thing, he was to surprise she blew up in his face like that. They both heard a noise coming from the front of the house; they looked in that direction and saw a half naked Misao walking out to the bathhouse.

"Um guys shouldn't you be like gone by now, oh um stop looking at me get away shoo!" Misao said in a towel.

"Oh um yes I guess I should be going home now, see you later Misao" Soujiro said. He walked out of her dojo.

She finished her shower and walked to her room and got ready for bed. She braided her hair and sat at her window and looked at the moon for a minute or two. She then decided to go to bed. She quickly fell asleep, even though that wasn't the best idea.

A/N: Ok so that wasn't the best chapter I promise it will get much better, Misao doesn't think she can ever go to sleep again so it's a sleep deprived Misao and she drinks lots of coffee and pop so she is a hyper sleep deprived Misao when Aoshi gets back. Review, please and thank you.
