His fist collided with the other guys jaw; his knee came up a hit him in
the gut. The Vampire was sent flying out of the fighting circle, but not by
far. His black eyes looked up to the vampire still in the ring. Jumping up
he grabbed a hold of the one's backside tossing him over his back.
"Ouch! Taichi you surprised me again. I guess I can't take you to lightly any more" the one grinned showing his genuine brown eyes.
Taichi turned back to his more human form he looked over at the vampire he threw down and grinned, "Why you did teach me a lot in fighting 'My Lord'" Taichi bowed his head.
The other opened his mouth to say something but Yamato came in the room, "Hey Taichi, Daisuke time to hunt!"
Taichi ran over to Yamato's side and turned to Daisuke who was still on the floor, "You coming bud?!"
Daisuke looked up at Taichi and smiled, "Yeah" he got up and started walking to the door, where Koushiro ran by trying to catch up to Yamato and Taichi.
Daisuke thought to himself, "I can't believe it's been three weeks already, three weeks since I last saw the heart throbbing Hikari Kamiya. My heartbeats every time I was by her, at first I didn't know what to think but I had accepted it now, not telling anyone my heart laid a beat. It has already been three weeks since Taichi's anger took over himself. I would have been dead if it weren't for 'them'" Daisuke pondered on who or what had saved him that day.
(Past memories) Daisuke was racing time itself; the sun was close to his heels. All he had to do was open the manhole lid quickly as possible.
"There it is!" Daisuke got excited, running faster and faster he got to the lid and pulled. Something was wrong he couldn't open it!
He looked back at the sun; here it comes! He shut his eyes closed tight and tried prying the lid open. It was no use though; Daisuke was too stubborn to see it though.
A figure in a black cloak came running and grabbed Daisuke; they threw a cloak over his body so the sun wouldn't harm him much.
Daisuke looked up at the figures face; he couldn't see much but the frame of the face almost looked like a female, and it wasn't Lynn or any human. No human mortal could soar like any vampire.
They dropped down far away from where they began. They opened the lid to the sewer and dropped Daisuke down taking the black cloak with them. Once the lid was closed Daisuke could hear them pouncing off.
Daisuke listened to the sounds of the sewer, the rats, the bats, and the water. The sewer was a disgusting place, he had to admit; but where he lived it wasn't so bad. A long time ago the sewer was made and its purpose was for vampires to live in. But as time passed vampires become evil, and then didn't make too much of an appearance in till now. The mortal race starting flowing water in the sewer, rats took a liking to their new home. But the vampires that still lived down in the sewer blocked off certain ways, and made sure mortals couldn't find there way to them.
Chains raddled in the distance. Daisuke looked up to see a figure walking towards him. Daisuke knew right away it was Taichi.
"What are you doing down here?" Daisuke eyed the chains, "and with those!"
Taichi stopped and looked up, 'How can this be I made sure I locked up all the closest lids. How in hell is he still alive!' "What are you doing here!?"
Daisuke took note of his eyes; they weren't the same as before. They looked more full of anger; they looked more evil. "I get it you cant control your anger can you?"
Taichi swung the chains in Daisuke's direction.
Daisuke yawned, "Is this it?" Daisuke jumped over the chains and landed behind Taichi. Taichi started turning as fast as he could; but not fast enough to stop the kick in his ribs. That landed him in the sewer water with the rats starting to bite at his ears.
Daisuke looked down at him, "Your anger can be controlled Taichi, all you have to do is concentrate."
"How dare you! How dare you say I have control my anger! When you're the one drills wooden stakes in mortal human girls!" Taichi snapped.
Daisuke winced. Then he thought..
~*~*~
He got to a house that had the girls sent all over it. He recognized another sent but he didn't bother investigating. Crawling though a window on the top floor, it was the only room that had pink; it had to be hers.
~*~*~
The other sent, it had Taichi all over it. Hikari Kamiya, Taichi Kamiya. How could he be so stupid, they looked somewhat alike. "You're her brother".
"Yes you dumb ass!" Taichi snapped again.
Daisuke thought for a moment of what consequences were when someone accidentally hurt someone's younger sister. Daisuke looked down at the chains in Taichi's hands. He then could answer his own question. Death!
Daisuke turned and sprinted to where the elders were. Taichi got up and started running after him; screaming.
Daisuke ran faster, but he saw something growing in the distance. Sunlight?
"Why we have to go down here so early?" a voice yawned.
"Cause boss said some weird things were going down by the sewer so he told us to check it out" the other one took the lid and threw it on the ground. He was the first to start climbing down.
"Ah Shit!" Daisuke groaned. 'Damn it, Taichi's on my ass and two old farts finally decide to check the sewer after ten damn years!' Daisuke stopped his feet like when a car stopped its wheels when the brakes are hit.
Taichi got angrier. He never saw the two men come down, too blinded by his anger all he saw was Daisuke and the way he was running. But then he saw Daisuke start running back faster then when he was from him. He never stopped like Daisuke; Daisuke flew past him before he could do anything. His head was looking back at Daisuke he never saw the sunlight or the two men till after he turned around.
Daisuke looked back, Taichi had never stopped. Daisuke turned back again to get Taichi. 'Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Today is NOT my day!'
Taichi saw the sunlight he heading for. His brown eyes widened, the anger left him; he was back to the innocent self again. Trying to stop fast enough; but his feet couldn't respond fast like Daisuke's. He dropped one end of the chains.
The two men looked over at Taichi, one spoke, "That's a BIG rat!"
"That's not a rat!" The other said with fear.
Taichi felt a tug on his hand. He looked back; Daisuke held the other end on the chains. Taichi grabbed the chain with his other hand and tugged to try and stop. There was a very thin line between the sunlight and Taichi's heels.
"Hey you two! Your not suppose to be down here this is private property of the law. You guys are gonna be arrested!" The one man told Daisuke and Taichi. He called up to someone on the land, "Call the police!" he turned to Daisuke and Taichi but they were running. "Hey!"
The other one started talking to the person on land, "Call the police tell then to get on every sewer entrance of this pipe. Those two kids might have something to do with the missing kids lately. And hurry and hand down our motorized sewer cart!"
The cart was lowered down; it was a good size cart for two men to fit in. But it wasn't slow at all.
Daisuke's ears perked. He turned his head and saw a yellow moving bike- looking-thing, "Since when do they make vehicles that go down into the sewer?!"
"Since the year two thousand. They never had to use them though in till now!"
"Wonderful! This is the best day of my life!" Daisuke said sarcastically. He speeded up going possibly one hundred miles per hour. But the yellow cart got even closer to them.
Taichi saw what Daisuke was trying to do, "It wont work, those little things can go over five hundred miles per hour. And without falling off their path."
The yellow cart grew a windshield and a top. Helmets were placed on the two men's heads, and seatbelts over their chests. The one who wasn't driving looked at the radar, "Those two are going over one hundred! Are they human!?"
"Think their vampires?"
Daisuke looked up, sunlight came from several places. And more men in police uniforms had those yellow carts.
Daisuke looked up; he remembered this place. He had gotten lost here one time and Marth came and found him. There was a pathway that was partly sealed up, Marth showed him how the vampires three hundred years ago lived. He uses to go there everyday after that and he knew the little maze like the back of his hand. Then Griffin got more serious with training and he stopped going.
He grabbed Taichi's hand, "Lets go!"
One of the yellow carts came from the front and the other was still on their asses. A few more yellow carts started up and others where on the other side or the sewer pipe.
Daisuke jumped up on the sidewall of the sewer. He kicked off the wall with Taichi in tow. He caught on to a ledge up high, swung Taichi as best he could to the small entrance that was just big enough for them.
Taichi took the hint and crawled up and squeezed through the entrance. He was all the way through and he looked back. Gun Shots were fired, the noise rung through Taichi's mind. Seven-year-old Taichi Kamiya witnessed the death of his mother to vampire. Guns were fired to protect the mortals but what happened was one of the vampires took his mother hostage and they shot her. The vampires then fed upon her. Taichi tried to save her by running out in the gunfire; he had never made it to his mother. He was the only one that had survived who was caught up in the fire.
Daisuke's scream echoed in the sewer. Taichi saw only one hand hanging on. He heard them yelling, "Shoot him down. Just don't kill him!"
Daisuke was losing grip. The last gunshot did it. His grip on the ledge let go and he started falling. He had an injured hand that was shot, up high above his head. It was the hand Taichi caught in the middle of Daisuke's fall. The Guns started firing again; every time they had missed, Daisuke was now in the small entrance.
Daisuke cradled his injured hand. He looked around and found a boulder; he placed it in front of the entrance to seal it from the mortals.
"Alright that will hold them for just a little while. Lets go!" Daisuke turned.
Taichi stared at Daisuke, "What about your hand?"
"I'll last a little longer till its dressed."
"Won't you pass out?"
"That will be good for you! You can keep on walking in the fucking maze while I'm lying here on the ground coconscious ready for them to pick up!" Daisuke was trembling and started getting delusional.
Taichi looked at Daisuke's legs he was shot in the left leg between the knee and the ankle. He was also shot in his right thigh. Daisuke was losing blood fast!
Taichi started unbuttoning his shirt, "I'm sorry alright! Do you have a belt?"
Daisuke shook his head, "No. What are you doing?"
Taichi tossed his shirt on the ground next to him and then started undoing his belt. "Sit down, now!"
Daisuke raised his brow. Taichi shot him a death look. Daisuke fell to the ground watching Taichi drop his belt and started peeling off his white wife beater shirt; showing his abs.
Taichi picked up his over shirt and belt and walked over to Daisuke. Daisuke was inching back every step Taichi took towards him. Daisuke noted that every step Taichi took his pants would slide down and show more of his red and white stripe boxers. Taichi kneeled in between Daisuke's legs.
Daisuke swallowed a huge wad of spit in his throat. Taichi came inches away Daisuke's face, "I am not that perverted or desperate!" Taichi twisted Daisuke's injured hand and stretched his arm out. Daisuke yipped out in pain.
Taichi took his wife beater shirt and wrapped it around Daisuke's wrist. "This will slow the flow of blood to your hand." He pulled his leg and wrapped the belt on his right thigh. His outer shirt was wrapped tightly around Daisuke's knee.
They heard a loud explosion that smashed the boulder.
"Bombs!?" Daisuke shouted.
"We got to go! Can you walk?"
Daisuke got up but the blood being cut off was hard to walk with.
"Shit! Alright I'll carry you hop on my back."
Daisuke clung on to the nineteen-year-old, "This looks really gay! If you tell any one I'll kill you!"
Taichi started running but couldn't get far with out his pants falling to his ankles.
Daisuke snickered, "Didn't any one ever tell you to get your pant size?"
Taichi didn't laugh, "They didn't have my size now bite it!" Taichi took his pants off and swung them in Daisuke's face.
"Your running with no pants! Great now its gonna look like we really are gay!" A few voices seemed like they were getting louder and were approaching the two.
Taichi dashed out in a speed, that Daisuke almost lost the pants he was holding. Taichi looked around; what they were in looked like little houses or apartments. Kitchens and lounging areas where in almost every little slide. If you took away the collection of dust and restored it maybe three hundred years or so the maze they were running through almost looked like where they lived down in the sewer. Except they had one large kitchen and one large lounge with pretty good size rooms and one huge room. The rooms they were running through looked like rooms of common people, were where they stayed it looked to be a palace. Taichi hasn't even explored most of the place where he stayed. All he really cared for though was his room, the kitchen, and the fighting ring.
Daisuke interrupted his thoughts, "Turn left here".
Taichi changed his direction left. Broken down walls, broken down houses, he even saw broken cribs, and ripped up teddy bears and dresses. What was this place?
"Turn right then take another left."
This place.
The place Taichi was running in; cries. What had happened? People must have lived here. Were they killed? Children had sung and danced in this place. Adults laughed in this place. People sold things in this place. This place was an underground city.
Taichi could hear them. He saw them. What had happened?
Daisuke noticed an increase in Taichi's speed. 'So he can see the past too?'
Taichi started slowing down then came to a complete stop, "It's a dead end!"
Daisuke stared at the wall they were facing. "Walk."
Daisuke, why did he want to be cornered at a dead end, confused Taichi? Taichi stopped right in front of the wall.
"Why did you stop?"
"Daisuke it's a wall! You can't walk through walls!"
Daisuke grabbed Taichi's hand and put it near the wall, then he pushed it all the way through.
Taichi's eyes widen; his hand was gone! He took one step in towards the wall and went strait through.
On the other side was, Sunlight!?
"What is this place? How are we here without burning?"
Daisuke lowered himself and limped to a running waterfall. "Artificial"
"Artificial? Through a wall?" Taichi looked around. Blue sky. Yellow sun. Green Trees. Exotic flowers. Blue pond. Crystal waterfall. It was like a dream paradise. Nothing seemed artificial; all the smells and colors seemed so real.
"That wall was never there three hundred years ago".
Taichi had forgotten Daisuke was there. He was too caught up in the dream paradise. When he looked back at Daisuke he was shocked to see he was in the pond with no clothes. "What do you mean three hundred years ago?"
Daisuke smacked one ear to get water out of the other one. "Don't tell me no one told you the story of vampires from three hundred years ago?!"
"Nope." Taichi picked up his bloody clothes, "Heh, if someone really found us here then they'd think we were really gay."
Daisuke glared at him. "Like I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted!"
"You weren't even talking!"
"Well now I am!" Daisuke started doing circles in the water, kicking and slashing water on Taichi. "So any way this place were in was a vampire lair. But when the prince of the vampires became the king he basically said 'if no wants to join me and become evil I will destroy Underground base city'!" Daisuke used a deeper voice when talking like Onkó. "So any way no one wanted to join the king in evil."
"And?"
Taichi waited awhile till Daisuke said in a hushed voice, "He killed them all with his own hands. The ones that where first to go were the ones that had mortal human blood in them. Then the children, so the parents could watch." Daisuke sighed and continued, "Back then Vampires were also considered wizards or whatever; but they did magic. And one who joined Onkó's team was killed later on here because he didn't follow Onkó's rules. But before he died he made sure that no mortal eye could see 'Underground Base City' and he blocked this place by a wall."
"Why did Onkó every even want to become evil?"
"So he could be the strongest."
"And this 'Artificial' place?"
"Magic." Daisuke looked at his hand, which was healed. "You can get a nice tan here too."
Taichi looked at Daisuke's bronze skin, "Well that's not hard to figure out". Taichi looked over at the wall they had come through, it was just standing there. "And what do mortals see?"
Daisuke walked up to him fully dressed, no blood attached. "Marth said they just see a small boxed room with debre everywhere. They'll never find us. No more then two people could probably fit in there but I don't know I can't see it."
Taichi looked over Daisuke who got dressed fast, "Your wounds?"
"The pond healed them." Daisuke started walking towards the wall and went through.
Taichi looked down he was still in his boxers. Slipping his pants on and running his belt the hoops as fast as he could, he ran to catch up to Daisuke. "Hey Davis! I got to ask a question."
"Alright ask away."
"Do you like my sister?"
Daisuke stopped dead in his tracks and stared at the older boy. "What do you mean? Like is she nice or breathtaking?"
"I mean if you could would you take her for your queen?"
What was Daisuke suppose to say? Yes and get killed or No and get killed? "Um yeah I guess."
Taichi just smiled and walked more on. He stopped and turned around, "Hey Davis; you sleep with her. I'll kill you. Okay?" he turned and started walking once again.
Daisuke just stared blankly at the back of Taichi. 'What just happened here?' (End of past memories)
"I'll raise you ten!" Koushiro placed money on the gravestone.
Yamato paid no attention to his cards in his hands he kept looking around the cemetery. "Fold" Yamato put down his cards.
"Wow Matt folding so fast it's amazing." Daisuke stated.
"Yeah, well I have to go to the bathroom anyway" he got up and walked in to the trees.
"He's still scared" Taichi said.
"Of what?" Asked Daisuke.
"He's been having nightmares lately" Koushiro put his hands behind his head.
"Of what?" Daisuke asked again.
"Who knows" Taichi looked at his cards, "Fold."
Yamato rested up against the tree and closed his eyes. Images flittered his mind. His parents fighting and screaming, them getting a divorce. His mother taking his younger brother away. His younger brother. The look on his brother's face when his older brother became a vampire. He was his younger brothers idol. His tough strong older brother who now he hated so much. Yamato whispered one word. "Takeru."
Ten minutes had passed and the three where on their second round of poker. None of them paid any attention to their surroundings or any noises. But they all heard three clicks close to their heads, and they all felt the wooden stakes near their hearts.
"What you guys hunting?" a blond boy approached and sat down where Yamato had sat before.
"Nothing in particular anymore" Daisuke looked at the boy.
The blond boy took a picture out of his pocket and unfolded it, "You seen this vampire?"
Taichi took the picture from the boy and examined it. It was Yamato Ishida! "Never seen him before in my life." Taichi tossed the picture back.
"How about your little friend over there but the trees?"
"How do you know we have a friend who plays in the trees?" Daisuke asked.
The vampire slayer behind Daisuke took out a radar. That consisted of four pink dots and five blue dots.
"If you ever see Yamato tell me."
"How do you know his name is Yamato?" Koushiro raised his brow.
"I am his father!"
"Fuck no! Matt's only nineteen and your about Davis's age!" Taichi spit out.
Koushiro and Daisuke growled at him. Where the boy raised his brow and laughed. He tucked the picture in his pocket and started walking towards the tree. "You can kill them now Ken!"
Yamato listened to the conversation. He smirked Taichi had a big mouth. He heard the boy's steps and every twig he broke walking over. Yamato took no care to open his eyes to greet his younger brother. He didn't want to see the look he was going to get.
"Hello T.K."
"Don't call me that!"
"Why not I've always called you that."
"No! Only my family and best friends call me by my nickname. You are neither!"
Yamato winced. That had hurt him bad.
"Can't we all just be friends?" Daisuke turned to the one who had the wooden stake gun towards his head and heart.
The one known as Ken who stood over Daisuke smirked, "Where vampire hunters and you are vampires. There for we are enemies not friends."
"Why not on T.V. shows the vampire hunters are friends with some vampires?" Taichi asked.
The only female in the group who stood over Taichi was staring at Koushiro. "Hey it just hit me!" Everyone turned to the lavender haired girl.
"What is it Yolei?" The mushroom cut brown haired boy asked who was standing over Koushiro.
"You're the rich, computer expert guy Koushiro. Right?"
"Izzy your famous?" Daisuke looked at one of his best friends, "And rich!?"
Koushiro blushed. "Its not that big of a deal is it?"
"But they found your car all smashed up windshield broken and everything. Everyone thinks your dead!"
"Damn did she have to mention my car?" Koushiro murmured to himself.
"Hey yeah! And you're the soccer guy. Right? I played against you the one time" Ken pointed at Taichi.
"Hey! So we're friends!" Daisuke gave and ear to ear smile and put of his hand.
"Not by a long shot!" Ken shot back. Daisuke's face fell and his hand dropped.
Ken was going to shoot when the female gasped. Ken tuned and saw a figure walking towards them in a black hooded cloak. It was the same person that saved Daisuke before.
The girl shouted a name that was directing towards the hooded figure.
Takeru put the wooden stake near his brother's heart. "Through all the pain and suffering you made me and my family go through, I am proud to say. Good bye!" He raised the stake and almost went down when he heard a name being shouted out.
~**~**~**~
Sorry it took so long (Three weeks?) But I have a book report due the first day of school and I haven't even read the book! Plus I went camping then I went down to Pennsylvania. So hopefully I'll be able to get the chapter up next week. But no promises my family is up from Long Island for my cousin's wedding shower. Pictures are still here all you have to do is E-mail me.
So who do you guys think is the person in black? Tell me if you think their good or evil? Or if their working for Onkó or Daisuke?
Next time: Who is the hooded figure. And if there a vampire like Daisuke thinks then how do the Slayers know them. Onkó has a few tricks up his sleeve to get the women he wants so that means Daisuke's Hikari's guard dog. And what happens when a few things get out of control that Taichi might 'kill' Daisuke for? Will Takeru forgive his older brother, Yamato?

"Ouch! Taichi you surprised me again. I guess I can't take you to lightly any more" the one grinned showing his genuine brown eyes.
Taichi turned back to his more human form he looked over at the vampire he threw down and grinned, "Why you did teach me a lot in fighting 'My Lord'" Taichi bowed his head.
The other opened his mouth to say something but Yamato came in the room, "Hey Taichi, Daisuke time to hunt!"
Taichi ran over to Yamato's side and turned to Daisuke who was still on the floor, "You coming bud?!"
Daisuke looked up at Taichi and smiled, "Yeah" he got up and started walking to the door, where Koushiro ran by trying to catch up to Yamato and Taichi.
Daisuke thought to himself, "I can't believe it's been three weeks already, three weeks since I last saw the heart throbbing Hikari Kamiya. My heartbeats every time I was by her, at first I didn't know what to think but I had accepted it now, not telling anyone my heart laid a beat. It has already been three weeks since Taichi's anger took over himself. I would have been dead if it weren't for 'them'" Daisuke pondered on who or what had saved him that day.
(Past memories) Daisuke was racing time itself; the sun was close to his heels. All he had to do was open the manhole lid quickly as possible.
"There it is!" Daisuke got excited, running faster and faster he got to the lid and pulled. Something was wrong he couldn't open it!

Daisuke took note of his eyes; they weren't the same as before. They looked more full of anger; they looked more evil. "I get it you cant control your anger can you?"
Taichi swung the chains in Daisuke's direction.
Daisuke yawned, "Is this it?" Daisuke jumped over the chains and landed behind Taichi. Taichi started turning as fast as he could; but not fast enough to stop the kick in his ribs. That landed him in the sewer water with the rats starting to bite at his ears.

"That's not a rat!" The other said with fear.
Taichi felt a tug on his hand. He looked back; Daisuke held the other end on the chains. Taichi grabbed the chain with his other hand and tugged to try and stop. There was a very thin line between the sunlight and Taichi's heels.

Daisuke's scream echoed in the sewer. Taichi saw only one hand hanging on. He heard them yelling, "Shoot him down. Just don't kill him!"
Daisuke was losing grip. The last gunshot did it. His grip on the ledge let go and he started falling. He had an injured hand that was shot, up high above his head. It was the hand Taichi caught in the middle of Daisuke's fall. The Guns started firing again; every time they had missed, Daisuke was now in the small entrance.
Daisuke cradled his injured hand. He looked around and found a boulder; he placed it in front of the entrance to seal it from the mortals.
"Alright that will hold them for just a little while. Lets go!" Daisuke turned.
Taichi stared at Daisuke, "What about your hand?"
"I'll last a little longer till its dressed."
"Won't you pass out?"
"That will be good for you! You can keep on walking in the fucking maze while I'm lying here on the ground coconscious ready for them to pick up!" Daisuke was trembling and started getting delusional.
Taichi looked at Daisuke's legs he was shot in the left leg between the knee and the ankle. He was also shot in his right thigh. Daisuke was losing blood fast!
Taichi started unbuttoning his shirt, "I'm sorry alright! Do you have a belt?"
Daisuke shook his head, "No. What are you doing?"
Taichi tossed his shirt on the ground next to him and then started undoing his belt. "Sit down, now!"
Daisuke raised his brow. Taichi shot him a death look. Daisuke fell to the ground watching Taichi drop his belt and started peeling off his white wife beater shirt; showing his abs.
Taichi picked up his over shirt and belt and walked over to Daisuke. Daisuke was inching back every step Taichi took towards him. Daisuke noted that every step Taichi took his pants would slide down and show more of his red and white stripe boxers. Taichi kneeled in between Daisuke's legs.
Daisuke swallowed a huge wad of spit in his throat. Taichi came inches away Daisuke's face, "I am not that perverted or desperate!" Taichi twisted Daisuke's injured hand and stretched his arm out. Daisuke yipped out in pain.
Taichi took his wife beater shirt and wrapped it around Daisuke's wrist. "This will slow the flow of blood to your hand." He pulled his leg and wrapped the belt on his right thigh. His outer shirt was wrapped tightly around Daisuke's knee.
They heard a loud explosion that smashed the boulder.
"Bombs!?" Daisuke shouted.
"We got to go! Can you walk?"
Daisuke got up but the blood being cut off was hard to walk with.
"Shit! Alright I'll carry you hop on my back."
Daisuke clung on to the nineteen-year-old, "This looks really gay! If you tell any one I'll kill you!"
Taichi started running but couldn't get far with out his pants falling to his ankles.
Daisuke snickered, "Didn't any one ever tell you to get your pant size?"
Taichi didn't laugh, "They didn't have my size now bite it!" Taichi took his pants off and swung them in Daisuke's face.
"Your running with no pants! Great now its gonna look like we really are gay!" A few voices seemed like they were getting louder and were approaching the two.
Taichi dashed out in a speed, that Daisuke almost lost the pants he was holding. Taichi looked around; what they were in looked like little houses or apartments. Kitchens and lounging areas where in almost every little slide. If you took away the collection of dust and restored it maybe three hundred years or so the maze they were running through almost looked like where they lived down in the sewer. Except they had one large kitchen and one large lounge with pretty good size rooms and one huge room. The rooms they were running through looked like rooms of common people, were where they stayed it looked to be a palace. Taichi hasn't even explored most of the place where he stayed. All he really cared for though was his room, the kitchen, and the fighting ring.
Daisuke interrupted his thoughts, "Turn left here".
Taichi changed his direction left. Broken down walls, broken down houses, he even saw broken cribs, and ripped up teddy bears and dresses. What was this place?
"Turn right then take another left."
This place.
The place Taichi was running in; cries. What had happened? People must have lived here. Were they killed? Children had sung and danced in this place. Adults laughed in this place. People sold things in this place. This place was an underground city.
Taichi could hear them. He saw them. What had happened?
Daisuke noticed an increase in Taichi's speed. 'So he can see the past too?'
Taichi started slowing down then came to a complete stop, "It's a dead end!"
Daisuke stared at the wall they were facing. "Walk."
Daisuke, why did he want to be cornered at a dead end, confused Taichi? Taichi stopped right in front of the wall.
"Why did you stop?"
"Daisuke it's a wall! You can't walk through walls!"
Daisuke grabbed Taichi's hand and put it near the wall, then he pushed it all the way through.
Taichi's eyes widen; his hand was gone! He took one step in towards the wall and went strait through.
On the other side was, Sunlight!?
"What is this place? How are we here without burning?"
Daisuke lowered himself and limped to a running waterfall. "Artificial"
"Artificial? Through a wall?" Taichi looked around. Blue sky. Yellow sun. Green Trees. Exotic flowers. Blue pond. Crystal waterfall. It was like a dream paradise. Nothing seemed artificial; all the smells and colors seemed so real.
"That wall was never there three hundred years ago".
Taichi had forgotten Daisuke was there. He was too caught up in the dream paradise. When he looked back at Daisuke he was shocked to see he was in the pond with no clothes. "What do you mean three hundred years ago?"
Daisuke smacked one ear to get water out of the other one. "Don't tell me no one told you the story of vampires from three hundred years ago?!"
"Nope." Taichi picked up his bloody clothes, "Heh, if someone really found us here then they'd think we were really gay."
Daisuke glared at him. "Like I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted!"
"You weren't even talking!"
"Well now I am!" Daisuke started doing circles in the water, kicking and slashing water on Taichi. "So any way this place were in was a vampire lair. But when the prince of the vampires became the king he basically said 'if no wants to join me and become evil I will destroy Underground base city'!" Daisuke used a deeper voice when talking like Onkó. "So any way no one wanted to join the king in evil."
"And?"
Taichi waited awhile till Daisuke said in a hushed voice, "He killed them all with his own hands. The ones that where first to go were the ones that had mortal human blood in them. Then the children, so the parents could watch." Daisuke sighed and continued, "Back then Vampires were also considered wizards or whatever; but they did magic. And one who joined Onkó's team was killed later on here because he didn't follow Onkó's rules. But before he died he made sure that no mortal eye could see 'Underground Base City' and he blocked this place by a wall."
"Why did Onkó every even want to become evil?"
"So he could be the strongest."
"And this 'Artificial' place?"
"Magic." Daisuke looked at his hand, which was healed. "You can get a nice tan here too."
Taichi looked at Daisuke's bronze skin, "Well that's not hard to figure out". Taichi looked over at the wall they had come through, it was just standing there. "And what do mortals see?"
Daisuke walked up to him fully dressed, no blood attached. "Marth said they just see a small boxed room with debre everywhere. They'll never find us. No more then two people could probably fit in there but I don't know I can't see it."
Taichi looked over Daisuke who got dressed fast, "Your wounds?"
"The pond healed them." Daisuke started walking towards the wall and went through.
Taichi looked down he was still in his boxers. Slipping his pants on and running his belt the hoops as fast as he could, he ran to catch up to Daisuke. "Hey Davis! I got to ask a question."
"Alright ask away."
"Do you like my sister?"
Daisuke stopped dead in his tracks and stared at the older boy. "What do you mean? Like is she nice or breathtaking?"
"I mean if you could would you take her for your queen?"
What was Daisuke suppose to say? Yes and get killed or No and get killed? "Um yeah I guess."
Taichi just smiled and walked more on. He stopped and turned around, "Hey Davis; you sleep with her. I'll kill you. Okay?" he turned and started walking once again.
Daisuke just stared blankly at the back of Taichi. 'What just happened here?' (End of past memories)
"I'll raise you ten!" Koushiro placed money on the gravestone.
Yamato paid no attention to his cards in his hands he kept looking around the cemetery. "Fold" Yamato put down his cards.
"Wow Matt folding so fast it's amazing." Daisuke stated.
"Yeah, well I have to go to the bathroom anyway" he got up and walked in to the trees.
"He's still scared" Taichi said.
"Of what?" Asked Daisuke.
"He's been having nightmares lately" Koushiro put his hands behind his head.
"Of what?" Daisuke asked again.
"Who knows" Taichi looked at his cards, "Fold."
Yamato rested up against the tree and closed his eyes. Images flittered his mind. His parents fighting and screaming, them getting a divorce. His mother taking his younger brother away. His younger brother. The look on his brother's face when his older brother became a vampire. He was his younger brothers idol. His tough strong older brother who now he hated so much. Yamato whispered one word. "Takeru."
Ten minutes had passed and the three where on their second round of poker. None of them paid any attention to their surroundings or any noises. But they all heard three clicks close to their heads, and they all felt the wooden stakes near their hearts.
"What you guys hunting?" a blond boy approached and sat down where Yamato had sat before.
"Nothing in particular anymore" Daisuke looked at the boy.
The blond boy took a picture out of his pocket and unfolded it, "You seen this vampire?"
Taichi took the picture from the boy and examined it. It was Yamato Ishida! "Never seen him before in my life." Taichi tossed the picture back.
"How about your little friend over there but the trees?"
"How do you know we have a friend who plays in the trees?" Daisuke asked.
The vampire slayer behind Daisuke took out a radar. That consisted of four pink dots and five blue dots.
"If you ever see Yamato tell me."
"How do you know his name is Yamato?" Koushiro raised his brow.
"I am his father!"
"Fuck no! Matt's only nineteen and your about Davis's age!" Taichi spit out.
Koushiro and Daisuke growled at him. Where the boy raised his brow and laughed. He tucked the picture in his pocket and started walking towards the tree. "You can kill them now Ken!"
Yamato listened to the conversation. He smirked Taichi had a big mouth. He heard the boy's steps and every twig he broke walking over. Yamato took no care to open his eyes to greet his younger brother. He didn't want to see the look he was going to get.
"Hello T.K."
"Don't call me that!"
"Why not I've always called you that."
"No! Only my family and best friends call me by my nickname. You are neither!"
Yamato winced. That had hurt him bad.
"Can't we all just be friends?" Daisuke turned to the one who had the wooden stake gun towards his head and heart.
The one known as Ken who stood over Daisuke smirked, "Where vampire hunters and you are vampires. There for we are enemies not friends."
"Why not on T.V. shows the vampire hunters are friends with some vampires?" Taichi asked.
The only female in the group who stood over Taichi was staring at Koushiro. "Hey it just hit me!" Everyone turned to the lavender haired girl.
"What is it Yolei?" The mushroom cut brown haired boy asked who was standing over Koushiro.
"You're the rich, computer expert guy Koushiro. Right?"
"Izzy your famous?" Daisuke looked at one of his best friends, "And rich!?"
Koushiro blushed. "Its not that big of a deal is it?"
"But they found your car all smashed up windshield broken and everything. Everyone thinks your dead!"
"Damn did she have to mention my car?" Koushiro murmured to himself.
"Hey yeah! And you're the soccer guy. Right? I played against you the one time" Ken pointed at Taichi.
"Hey! So we're friends!" Daisuke gave and ear to ear smile and put of his hand.
"Not by a long shot!" Ken shot back. Daisuke's face fell and his hand dropped.
Ken was going to shoot when the female gasped. Ken tuned and saw a figure walking towards them in a black hooded cloak. It was the same person that saved Daisuke before.
The girl shouted a name that was directing towards the hooded figure.
Takeru put the wooden stake near his brother's heart. "Through all the pain and suffering you made me and my family go through, I am proud to say. Good bye!" He raised the stake and almost went down when he heard a name being shouted out.
~**~**~**~
Sorry it took so long (Three weeks?) But I have a book report due the first day of school and I haven't even read the book! Plus I went camping then I went down to Pennsylvania. So hopefully I'll be able to get the chapter up next week. But no promises my family is up from Long Island for my cousin's wedding shower. Pictures are still here all you have to do is E-mail me.
So who do you guys think is the person in black? Tell me if you think their good or evil? Or if their working for Onkó or Daisuke?
Next time: Who is the hooded figure. And if there a vampire like Daisuke thinks then how do the Slayers know them. Onkó has a few tricks up his sleeve to get the women he wants so that means Daisuke's Hikari's guard dog. And what happens when a few things get out of control that Taichi might 'kill' Daisuke for? Will Takeru forgive his older brother, Yamato?
