Bloodshed

Devil/angel

Aiko: I've just realized that I've made a BIG flaw, but I'll have that fixed don't worry. The flaw if you haven't notice would be that in chapter 3, the nameless figure that was supposed to be Yami, referred to the Vampire Pharaoh as "father" where as Yami referred to the dying Pharaoh as "uncle"… but I've figured a way to fix it… adds a little twist to the plot… I'm so sorry I haven't uploaded sooner, but there was a really BIG writers' block in the way…

WOAHO!! My birthday's tomorrow!!! So happy!!

Chapter six

New Enemies

'No! Don't kill them!! Run mom! Watch out!'

Mokawa jolted up with cold sweat dripping down the side of her face. 4:00 the digits of the clock glowed in a deep red light. It was only another dream… she thought as she covered her face with the pillow that she was clutching. The images of her parents being killed flashed over and over again in front of her face, and left her with many questions of what her parents were doing at that point, how a few vampires found them when there were so cleverly hidden. The facts her grandfather told her did not provide her a reasonable explanations since every mission the organization sent people to do was kept in a log, but somehow the night of her parents' death remained blank.

Why had her grandfather not told her about the truth? Or was it that he left important details that would unlock the mystery? Her grandfather never liked talking about her parents but why? Mokawa fell back onto her bed and closed her eyes. Nights like this, she would have sworn she had felt the presence of her parents, but she shoved these thoughts into the back of her mind, and reminded herself that her parents were dead.

But why had grandfather lied? She was not the little girl she once was and so age was not an excuse. Neither was her judgment, though her anger sometimes gets out of control. She felt that there was a greater cause that leads to her parents' death. She would have to persuade her grandfather to tell her tomorrow again.

"Where is Yami?" the clocked figured asked the guards, guarding the Pharaoh's chamber. "I demand to see him"

"You will address your Pharaoh with the proper respect and lower your tones. The Pharaoh is currently taking a walk and may not be back. Do not waste your time." One of the guards told the figure.

"And I supposed you have permission from Yami that you can be rude to me?" the clocked figure took off his hood and revealed his darkly tanned skin and long blonde hair that fell just past his shoulders. His lavender eyes now focused itself on the guard who had spoken so harshly at him seconds ago.

"Pardon my manners, Captain. If I had known…" the guard's eyes now show fear of the consequences.

"You will be punished. Rishid, take him away and have him beaten until I return." The Captain told his loyal guard, who ordered two nearby guards to punish the man. "Rishid, I want you to find Yami for me. He and I have some unfinished business."

"I will do as you command, Captain." Rishid replied and disappeared to find Yami.

A dark figure jumped across the roof tops, searching for prey. He had to release all the emotion within him. His uncle had told him before his death that his emotion was his weakness. Through training he had with him, his emotions had gotten in the way and cost him. But he will, this time, do as his uncle had wished.

He was now of age to take the throne which had belonged to him. But there were those who did not wish for him to have it. Those that would stand in the way and it were those he needed to be caution about. His cousin for one was Captain and many, in fear of him, had would join and try to over throw him. The other would be the hunter with the Yamiguchi blood. They would want revenge.

So much was on his mind now. He lay down on the cold tiles of an apartment staring at the star and finding himself thinking about that girl. She was different. He closed his eyes briefly before the sat up abruptly. A song was playing beneath him.

A moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime,
For a moment like this
Some people search forever,
For that one special kiss
Oh, I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime,
For a moment like this

The song was slow yet powerful. Swiftly, he swung himself from the rooftop and landed on the balcony below. He peered through the blinds and saw a figure sitting on the sofa in front of the fire, reading a book and his heart jumped.

It was her. Maybe this evening wouldn't be as bad as he thought it would be. He thought as he slid into the dark alley and almost in an instant, his cloak and Pharaoh clothes disappeared, replaced by a tight black shirt and leather pants and a blood red Mercedes.

Waking into the lobby, a few girls formed a circle and whispered softly, throwing a few seducing glances at him and giggling. He smiled briefly at them and got into the elevator. Pressing the top floor, he leaned against the mirror walls of the elevator, looking at the wall beside him and where his reflection should had been.

The elevator door opened and he walked with his eyes closed, sensing the music that seemed to pull him near the girl. He opened his eyes and found himself standing in front of a birch door and pressed the buzzer softly.

"Who is it?" a voice asked.

"It's me. I'm not sure if you remember my voice though." Yami chuckled as he answered.

Mokawa's heart beat wildly as she heard his voice. Part of her asked questions as how he found her, but she didn't care. He was here.

Aiko: oh! please don't hate me! I really have so much to do and tomorrow's back to school for me again, so I'm so busy, trying to finish everything before tomorrow! I'll upload as soon as possible!
