Kaiba blew out the candle
beside him, as the room was hugged in darkness. He turned to see the young
brunette beside him, when something hit his mind, and he had to ask her.
"If I let you choose,
would you become a vampire?" Kaiba asked her, his cold blue eyes watching
her, waiting for the answer to come from her mouth.
Serenity bit her lip, as she
wondered if she would. "Well Kaiba. . .I think I would. . ." she
trailed off, taking a moment to think over. ". . .I wouldn't" she
said, sighing with relief. What she had wanted had come out of her mouth, and
she had meant it.
Kaiba smirked to himself.
"You say it like it will actually happen" Kaiba stated.
Serenity sighed. How come he
can never just leave anything? He always has to say the final word. He always
has to win doesn't he? She thought to herself, as she laid on her side, trying
to get comfortable.
Serenity yawned, as she closed
her brown eyes. "Whatever you say Kaiba. Goodnight" she said.
"Morning you mean" he
corrected her.
Serenity growled. Will he ever
stop? She thought. "Fine, whatever" she said, exasperated. She didn't
feel like playing whatever game he wanted. She was exhausted, and all she
wanted to do was get some rest.
Kaiba didn't say anything. He
didn't need to. He knew she was angry, and he enjoyed it. She is an odd one
this woman. Though, I don't know if I'll let her choose. . .I mean, I let her
keep the twins right? If I let her choose again then she will think I softened
and all that shit, and I can't let her think that he thought. Besides, I haven't
changed have I? I'm still evil. I still hate the world he told himself, as he
drifted off into his sleep.
What an ass! He's so hard to
understand at times. One minute, he's sweet, the next, major asshole. I mean. .
.I'm happy I get to keep the twins. But, I'm just worried about how they'll
turn out and all. What if they're evil? And treat people cruelly like Kaiba
does. . .well, sometimes she thought. I don't want to be a vampire at all. . .I
hope he doesn't force me into something like that she thought.
I mean, I don't think living for so long is for me. I just want to live the
normal amount of time God wanted me too she thought. And hopefully, Kaiba will
let me do what I want. It would be weird to never grow old. . .she thought, as
she too fell asleep.
Marik sat at the table, his fingers taping on it. Pegasus sat not far from him,
watching him closely. He knew he wanted to say something, but he didn't want to
disturn him. Besides, he would tell him when he wanted too.
"Serenity. . ." Marik
trailed off.
Pegasus blinked when he heard
words come from his mouth. "What about her?" he asked, glad to get
the conversation going. Dawn had come not too long ago, and he was quite tired.
"Nothing. . .just, do you
think she'll be safe? I mean, she's not a vampire, and she has two growing
inside of her. It's been about two weeks since they've been there. She only has
about four to five weeks before their here. . .and about two to three weeks
before they thrive for blood" Marik said, obviously worried.
"Yes, you do have a point
there. . .but like you said, we could have them come out earlier" Pegasus
said, reminding him.
"That's true. . .but we'll
need to take her to the hospital. . .but even so, they will notice the differences.
. .and what about when the sun comes up? Then what? They burn to death? Neither
of us can preform that. So, I don't know" Marik said exasperated. He was
trying to figure this all out for the best interests in his friend—Kaiba.
"We could get a doctor
here! Besides, we need to anyways, see if it's healthy and all" Pegasus
suggested to him.
"And what happens after
the babies come? Or what if he refuses to do it?" Marik asked him.
"We threaten him, and we
just kill him when were done" Pegasus laughed, as he sipped his drink.
"We can't kill a man that
is going to help us out" marik exclaimed.
Pegasus looked at his weirdly. "Yes we can" he said.
Marik snorted. "I guess
so"
"That's what I
thought" Pegasus said, getting up to go to bed.
The sun had set, as night came in. For a vampire, they didn't need a window to
tell when night had fallen, they always sensed it, and they woke up to the
sense. Kaiba opened his eyes, as he leaned over to light a candle on his bed
side. He blinked a few times, adjusting to the small light, before he looked
over at Serenity.
Despite not being pregnant not
long, she was getting big. He knew this would be different then the nine months
she was used to. But, he couldn't do much about it. And besides, they wouldn't
be there much longer anyways. Perhaps, this way was better then the humans way
he thought. They get it over with quicker he thought.
"Kaiba?" a voice said
in his mind, making him roll his eyes. He knew it was Marik, but what irritated
Kaiba was how he couldn't tell when Marik was listening in on his thoughts. And
that, he loathed more then anything.
"What do you want
now?" Kaiba said in his mind, as he sat up.
"We have a doctor here"
Marik said.
Kaiba growled as he sniffed.
"What the hell is a human doing here. . .alive?" he asked in disgust.
"Too make sure your
children are healthy. Now, wake her up, he's quite frightened by all
this—actually, very amusing" Marik laughed.
Kaiba growled irritably,
"Whatever" he said. "I'll be there soon, now get the fuck out of
my mind" Kaiba hissed.
"Fine, fine. Calm
down" Marik laughed mockingly.
Kaiba turned over to the
sleeping brunette beside him. Using his arm, he slowly shook her. Serenity
moaned slightly, turning over, but was still asleep. Kaiba rolled his eyes, as
he shook her harder this time, making her slowly open her eyes.
She growled when she saw him.
"Why the hell are you waking me up? Let me sleep" she said, turning
over, smiling. It felt good for her to speak her mind, not being afraid of the
consequences. Well, she would have to—after the pregnancy. But till then, she
didn't. And she would use it to her advantage.
"Woman, a doctor is here
to see you, so you need to get up" he said, roughly sitting her up. He
knew she knew that he wouldn't hit her, but he wasn't going to let her speak to
him like that. He'd rather risk the chance of the babies death. Besides. . .when
did he ever tell her he wanted them anyways? She knew he didn't really want
them right? He thought.
"Fine" she said,
getting up from the bed, stretching and yawning. She then turned to him, to
find him still sitting there. "Well, get up! You wake me up and your not
even-"
Instantly, Kaiba flashed in
front of her, making her step back in slight fear. I swear, I'll never get used
to that she thought, as she followed him out the door.
Hey! She thought. It was
unlocked! Dammit, I could of left. . .but then, the twins she thought looking
down, and touching her stomach. I guess he thinks I won't leave because of
them. . .damn him! She thought, as she entered the room where Marik and Pegasus
sat patiently, while another man stood there, obviously petrified.
"Finally! This is Dr.
Evans" Pegasus introduced Kaiba and Serenity to the doctor.
"I don't give a shit who
he is, just make this quick" Kaiba snapped, taking a seat beside Marik.
"Why must you be this
way?" Marik growled.
"Because I can" Kaiba
snapped back, making Marik roll his eyes.
"Well? What the hell are
you waiting for?" Kaiba growled at the man, making him jump in fright.
"Y-yes, p-please,
Serenity, l-lay here" he said, pointed to the little bed.
Cautiously, Serenity moved
slowly to the bed that was surrounded with his equipment, which she already
knew what they did. She had seen them before is shows she watched, and besides,
her mother had told her about when she had went to see Serenity in her stomach
for the first time. She wouldn't say it, but she was nervous. She didn't know
what to expect, but all she could really hope for was that they were healthy
right? She thought, laying herself down on the bed.
Laying down, she looked at the
small television in front of her. She knew exactly what it did. It would show
her baby while the doctor would do they ultra sound. The doctor smiled
nervously, as he pulled up her shirt to show her stomach.
"What the fuck is he
doing" Kaiba hissed, standing up, reading to kill him.
Marik grabbed him. "Stop
being a fool, he's checking the babies! He's not going to hurt her you idiot.
Sit down, and stop acting stupid" Marik stated.
Kaiba growled to himself. He
couldn't believe how he overreacted to this! He wondered why he had done it
though. Whatever he thought crossing his arms over his chest, refusing and
pushing to the back of his mind the obvious.
The doctor then put a clear,
water-based conducting gel over her stomach where he would examine her.
Serenity gasped at the coldness, making goose bumps show on her skin. The
doctor smiled, giving her a I'm-sorry look, before he continued on with the
procedure.
The doctor grabbed the
transducer, and then turned on the little television set. Slowly, he moved it
over her stomach, as pictures came onto the screen. Serenity looked at the
screen patiently, as she waited for the man to say something.
"Here are one of your
babies" he pointed to the screen. Serenity looked at it, but didn't see
it.
"Where?" she asked.
The doctor moved away from her,
as he touched the television with his finger. "That's it" he said.
"Oh. . .it's so tiny"
she smiled, looking at it.
"Yes. And by the looks of
it's a. . .girl" he said.
Serenity smiled. A girl? I'm
going to have a girl! She thought. Maybe she won't be like her father she
thought happily. But then. . .there is another child she thought.
"A girl? That's wrong. I'm
having sons you fool. Get it right" Kaiba growled from his seat.
"N-no, I'm qui-quite sure
it's female" he stuttered to him.
"Whatever" Kaiba said
simply, his eyes on Serenity.
"Now, I'll need you to
turn to your right, because I can't quite see the other baby" he said.
Serenity nodded, turning to her
right. "Was she healthy?" she asked.
The doctor smiled. "She
was" he said. "Actually, they both are" he added finding the
other child.
Serenity sighed in relief. Both
of them were healthy, that was all she needed to know. She didn't even want to
fathom what she would do if they weren't healthy.
"Congratulation Miss, your
having two beautiful healthy little girls" the doctor said, helping
Serenity lay back on her back.
"Both are girls?" she
asked.
The doctor nodded.
Serenity smiled, but turning
over, she didn't see the same joy in Kaiba, actually he looked rather pissed.
"I'm going out" Kaiba
said finally, get up to leave.
"Come Serenity, I'll help
you back to your room okay?" Marik said, helping her stand.
The two walked to the room
silently, neither speaking. When getting to her room, Marik opened the door for
her and walked her to the couch where she sat.
"It's so weird. I seen
these movies, where women have odd cravings, mood swings, everything. . .yet I
have nothing" she said sadly. She wanted to experience everything.
Marik smiled. "Perhaps. .
.but I guess it's different for you. . .but maybe you'll get mood swings"
Marik said, hoping to bring her hopes up.
Serenity smiled. "I guess.
. . " she trailed off. "Do you know why Kaiba left like that? He
seemed angry" she said soon after.
Marik sighed. "I guess
having daughters isn't what he wanted. Honestly, they are a little rare. You
usually have sons, but not in your case. Odd though. . .yours came out all
differently" Marik said.
"I guess so. . .but
different is good" Serenity said.
"That it is" Marik
agreed.
Kaiba wiped the blood from his lips with his sleeve, as he left the dead body
on the middle of the road, not caring. Too much was on his mind, and as a
result, he had feasted and killed many that night.
He hadn't expected to get to
girls. He didn't want to girls! But, he couldn't do much about it. He always
saw females to be so weak and pathetic, even if they were vampires. And now, he
had to choose what to do with the woman in his room.
I can't keep giving her her way
can I? He thought. I refuse to go all soft for her. I don't care what she wants
or what the situation is Kaiba thought, as he spotted his newest pray.
Kaiba smirked. Perhaps it would
be enjoyable to have children around. I could always make them strong like
me—blood thirsty like me he thought.
He laughed evilly. Wouldn't
Serenity just love that? He thought, as in seconds, he grabbed the woman and
bit into her, her screams echoing down the empty streets of Domino. . .
