She scoffed watching as his wicked-lancing stare grew thick and very unwavering. A devious smirk accented his face as the devil-emboss eyes spoke only wicked-giggles at her. Kaoru fought the urge of just pelting him with her shoe, slowly taking a breath she assembled herself registering he wasn't worth a minute of her time. Closing her eyes just so shortly, she sighed to herself.
"Well mortal don't stand like an idiot now…" he added curtly.
Kaoru's eyes flew open, who in bloody name does he feel he's talking to?
"How dare you have the audacity to say such things?" she vigorously snapped her head to him, her eyes burning pools of fire and anger
"Ouch! Did I step on a nerve?" he asked in a pretentious voice of care… his eyes trying to mimic her innocent ones.
"Humph" Kaoru took to her heels knowing fully well he would follow her. Imagine a princess of the Light family kneels in front of hopelessness accepting a dark lord into her home. How intriguing…just intriguing.
"Oh woman when are you going to show me my room. I'm tired I'll have you know…" he yawned sarcastically. I mean hadn't they now began to walk?
Kaoru only growled. The young Lord found this most intriguing, he was never one who like to gape and frenzy with females, mainly because they obliged with him, but she…the goddess of the Light, she was---she was so different. Her aura exuded a flame of innocence and her entire flow was just----a temperamental issue. Not in a million years, had any one ever chose to oppose his say, he grew bored of the obliging of his every word, until he met her of course. She was so fiery and easy ---easy to get angry.
He found it enjoyable just to see someone snapping at his words and direct commands. He could tell she didn't like him, but oh well, he didn't care, his only business was to stay as far as possible from the Dark Kingdom. Why –you ask, mainly because he grew bored of the customary salutations and customs. Life there was a complete drear, and he thought if he returned, he would regret sitting in enormous hauls greeting beautiful vampire-women, only to decline each and every of them.
What was the point of life if I don't know how to enjoy it? He smirked, remembering how the little female in front of him loved to get angry.
I 'must'---by all the mannerism and etiquette I've learned, 'return' my one hundred percent thanks to this…little mortal. The voice in his mind laughed sardonically.
Kaoru stopped at the room which was two doors from hers, turning to him, she saw the lethargic and disgusted expression on his face.
"Your room…" she started, "My 'lord'" she growled lowly.
"It's about time woman. You walk like worms in a dead corpse. Humph---pity—tsk tsk" he nonchalantly addressed seeing her clench her both fists in perfect balls.
Kaoru screwed her eyes tightly feeling all the anger touching like torn nerves. The feeling of ire and pulsating frustration raced through her ears. She couldn't stand him one bit, she had the care in her heart to just to take care of him and yet he's standing in front of her demanding and adding sour statements to her dismay. She nearly screamed in pure anger.
"What's the matter woman?" he looked at her smirking at his victory, "Can't stand the fact I'm so gorgeous that you're closing your eyes?" he mused fascinated by her sudden snap.
"You…and that filthy mouth of yours…how dare you?" she roared…gritting her teeth a firm lock.
"Hmm—you have a face…so---so" his eyes started to soften as he watched her in a way she hadn't seen. Was it care…or was it his way of joking around?
"You have a face" he drew closer to her, "a face of an animal's dying backside" he leered toward her face knowing she would absolutely flip.
Kaoru's eyes flew open in a large shock, yet he read hate all over them. Jumping his brows, he pass her shoulder whispering, 'sucker' in her direction.
The gentle shutting of the door made Kaoru note the door was shut and the bastard from hell was in his room. Kaoru couldn't believe he was so rude. 'Oh buddy do you have trouble up your isle' she swore she would get him back…and she swore she'd like it.
"Oh that I will" she said to herself…walking down the lone haul with not a trouble on her mind.

"Where is my son?" shouted a brusque voice as three young riders kneeled before their lord.
The three young vampires said nothing. They kept muted just looking at the floor in an impassive manner.
"Answer me" he shouted as specks of saliva flew from his mouth.
One of the boys swallowed, he opened his mouth to speak but he stopped.
"You will answer when you asked a question from your Lord—answer" the guard at the side slammed the back of his spear on the backs of the three vampires. They all hissed at the excruciating pain.
"I order you to speak" the guard shouted again slamming the hard mahogany on their backs.
One of them fell to the floor squirming at the pain, "will you answer or must I use ominous methods?" the guard hissed pulling the hair of one of the vampires.
Yet with all the fighting, beating and gushing of ill speech these three spoke nothing but cries.
"I say onto you three, if you tell me where you have cast my son, I swear to the blood we drink your lives are sustained." The Lord tiredly spoke, his face exuding an effete and pallid concentration.
"Ou-r –L-ord" spoke one of the half-destroyed bodies on the floor. His body was beaten and welted in the bruises and lacerations, "we—would" he took a deep gasp of air as the pain in his leg throbbed wildly, "we—wo-would tell you…no-thing…nothing…y-you fo-ol"
The King stood, his body in a rage, his soul in a fit. The things creatures of his kind had done was madness. Already they'd made their first step by putting his son on a parallel world from his own. He closed his eyes trying to make sense of everything, growling just so barely he reopened his eyes ordering his guards to carry out his following command.
"Execute them…execute them all" his answer was madness. He would not allow all these ill-frustrations to ill-ventilate him. He thought to himself, since the rebellion of his kind was at his doorstep, he would use fire with fire. 'And so…they chose to go against me and the beginning of a breaking race of vampire and darkness is to fade' he thought.
"Enishi…" called the Lord in coldness…
A young Lord himself, came out the shadows wearing turquoise eyes as hypnotizing as that of snake, showing himself to his lord. With neat modern frames on the bridge of his nose, the white-blonde vampire looked expectantly at his Lord, wishing he would get over with his requests.
"Yes milord?" Enishi's voice was cold in the room, it offered no emotion and it almost felt---void.
"You will send a search party and find my son. If you and your party finds him, you will be rewarded graciously and the prize is yours to chose…" the Lord spoke.
Enishi, the traitor of the entire plan, the vampire responsible for the three riders banishing Kenshin, smirked to himself. His once mundane features grew silly when he captured the gig his lord professed so foolishly.
"Anything you say?" Enishi broaden his smirk.
The Lord knew of Enishi's hardiness, of how he was once a revolt-fighter and that he caused great devastation to the race of darkness and vampire, but the King was willing to accept and forget and give Enishi a second chance to make up for what he did so many…many years ago.
"Yes Enishi, you have heard me correctly…anything" the King professed.
Enishi laughed in his head, the fool of a king, was all Enishi could think. Pitying the situation and how easy it was to re-capture Kenshin and his prize, he decided he'd beat around the bush and use time wastefully. I mean, Enishi knew exactly where Kenshin was, why rush when he's the person who ordered Kenshin's banishment?
Enishi nearly laughed out, this was all so good, all so appetizing and yet it was all such a muddle-headed situation. To Kenshin's father and his folks that is. Enishi cleared his throat looking seriously at his Lord.
"I stand on your word and take your offer as dry as it is. But I do say onto you, if you lie your words like a snake, I swear to you…you have made yourself very distortable…" Enishi embossed fixing his frames tentatively.
Turning his back on his Lord, the king called a last time, "Enishi…" he spoke…
The young dark lord stood turning his head to his shoulder, "do not fail me please…you are the only person I've known who can detect criminal activity and the bounty-hunting of our people. I wish you luck on your journey…good day"
Enishi felt nothing by the mellow-dramatic speech of his king, 'Burn I say onto you and your filthy kind…the vampires will end soon…swear on it' he just walked loving how he had the upper-hand in any direction he examined it.
'Oh Battousai…you're as good as dead---hahhaha--'
--

Kaoru lied on her bed, taking a deep sleep completely unaware of what was happening in the room of her vampire friend. Battousai as was termed in his kingdom hung upside down looking at the floor, he was having an awfully hard time falling asleep with his mind being dubbed with blood. He could smell her blood.
Her virgin blood.
Closing his eyes, he tried not to just stand on both feet and tear her apart drinking her whole and fresh. Just the way he liked them.
It was nerve-racking, dealing with the fact he was under a roof with a living mortal who bleed in red lines and contributed malicious ideas in his head. It was all madness,
"Madness I say" he whispered to himself in the cold hollow room.
--One thump of the heart--
Battousai shut his eyes…
--another beat of her heart--
He clenched his hands wishing he wasn't this infatuated by the scent of blood. He was a mindless dominion when it came to blood, it was an addictive, insatiable delicious liquid that mantled him with strength and life. It was the life of both vampire and mortal and in some way…he found it completely torturing to live with a female who's blood gushed and kept her alive.
So I could watch,----so I could touch---so I could taste her…and hear her scream and make her bawl and the ceilings will fall and my eyes will be rolled in cascading delirium and she---she will be the prize and deliciousness under me…being drained of her every lost drop of blood---aghh---what the hell am I thinking? I can't kill her---- if I taste her---I will hurt her...arh!!
Battousai needed air, he didn't want to be cooped up in a house where the echoes of blood drew him in. Jumping down, he opened his window watching as the sky bled rain. White, clear droplets fell on the earth, soiling it damp and flooded it with mud and water. Battousai could smell her blood playing with his senses. Levitating over the ground, he slowly rose and exited the window, watching his surroundings with crude eyes. Landing softly, he heard the squish of his shoes in mud.
Oh lovely, just lovely… Battousai snarled, flicking the mud off his shoes.
He looked around, trying to replay what had happened yesterday, I was chased into these lands, and---and I was followed by three riders. I steered my horse into a labyrinth of trees…and ---I guess a branch knocked me out… and this is where little miss hot temper found me… and she took me in…
Battousai looked up at the sky, allowing the tears of the black heaven to fall on his soul. Battousai closed his eyes just becoming extremely annoyed. "ARHHH" he snapped, flicking the water off of him.
Her scent is driving me mad…I'm going to kill her…I need to kill her…
--In a far off room, the young girl awoke at the horrid cry. She thought it could be for the worst, perhaps 'that' vampire got hungry and attacked the first thing nearest to him…
My wolves…
Flinging the sheet off her small form, she ran straight to his room, opening the door, she was claimed by darkness. Everywhere she turned darkness met her, she could make out the silhouettes of objects in the room, but she wasn't quite sure what lurked in the dark ready to just jump out and laugh for his sardonic amusement.
Turning to her right she saw the sight of an open window with the curtains wildly flying in the wind. Lightning flashed and Kaoru felt scared. Had he left? Running to the window, she looked outside.
"Kenshin…" she called in a small voice…
"Kenshin" she called again, her voice deeper with strength. Yet she felt as if she was somewhat weighed, had he left her? After so long of living in loneliness and the haunting of her memories, she thought she could at least keep this one. But he was different, yet she offered him a home…
Kaoru swallowed… why do I feel so alone then? Has it been so long that I haven't any company? If I am to die to my fears and memories, then show me a sweet bliss in death…
She slowly closed her eyes, all the world around her felt cold and Kaoru didn't know if the leaving of Kenshin made her feel better or worst. He was gone. Forever. In whatever way she examined it, she was never a hater, and the loss of her friend—foe—friend, whatever they were, always would hurt her, in an invisible profound way to the unknown of the eyes, yet its there, building and churning deep in her bellows. Closing the window shut, she sighed lightly.
Lightning flashed another time, and to her unknowing a form about ten feet in distance examined her. His amber eyes keep a vigilant watch over her, as her quiet form seem to be caressing the sourness in her memories. He watched her, fascinated that mortals would become so emotional and misbalanced. He inwardly crumble if vampires were that emotional. Deciding that he would let her live her moments of pain, he disappeared in the soft shadows, becoming one with the darkness. Bit by bit…he approached her, in the form of blackness. He drew close to her, examining her expression. Why was she so affected?
He did not know and for that matter, he didn't care to know. Surfing closely to her face, his eyes locked target with her neck. The pulse was then there. And again and again a thump could be heard. A thump of life. A thump of rushing blood. Her skin became invisible when all he concentrated on was her pulse. He imagined sinking his canine deep into her neck, hearing her muffled moans, begging him to stop. The one drink he drear and desired would become both nightmare and miracle if he exuded such behavior. Snapping his head, he drifted from her reappearing at her back.
Kaoru closed her eyes holding herself in a warm hold of comfort. Cold hands joined hers as they smoothened her soft arms in a hold. Kaoru froze at the cold-icy contact. Realizing that these hands that touched her were not her own, she freaked.
"Shh…" he offered in her ears.
Why am I doing this? Why am I touching her?
Kaoru did not fear him suddenly, instead she melted into his hold. The ghosts of his farewell died, as he returned, touching her in comfort. It was weird to describe what she felt, but she never knew much of the vampires…only that they massacre her kind, yet she knew something was happening. Suddenly she felt him lean onto her, his strong arms molding her upper body into his… he breathed labour-filled in her ear, almost like a stress whispered moan, when he smelt her blood.
Stop it… he barked. He was drawing into her bit by bit by the scent of her awaking blood. Blood called him like a mantra, repeating itself resoundingly in echoes. This can not happen—he sputtered in his head… there was a line he maintained with this woman…he might as well live to it.
Detaching her from him in a firm snap, Kaoru's trance was broken.
He walked from her, his head low wearing a sign of defeat. Kaoru breathed deeply trying to make sense of what had happened. She saw him leave the room with nothing but silence wavering. Running to the door she called him, "Kenshin?"
He would not stop.
"Kenshin" she called again… he would not listen.
I can not control myself around that woman…I will kill her and I will live in damnation for it… I will not attain such a burden…to run from it I must…
"Kenshin…please—stop" she begged.
He listened realizing they were in some sort of gathering room.
"Tell me where you are going" she asked concerned.
"Away" his answer was simple…
"You're leaving…?" she swallowed, her voice creaking.
"Get over it" he drear in mordant reply
Kaoru couldn't even find her anger, instead she only found a new hurt in front of her, "but please…" her voice was so soft, and ethereal. It was like a little girl's voice, cherubic and pristine, "do not leave" she whispered breathlessly…
Battousai stopped the train of thoughts, the ideas of leaving, the parade to have her blood, turning slowly toward her he saw her nervousness and somewhat hurt face.
"I can attack you…my people did it once…it can very much happen again" he rendered.
"But you will not…" she faltered not…
"Oh and why is that? What makes you think that the top lord of both darkness and vampire would pass a meal such as goddess of light who trails a life 'in' blood, away?" his voice was so impacting, echoing in the huge room…
"Because…" her head was low…
"Because of what?" he shouted fedup of all the waiting.
She rose her head defiantly, "because I see it in your eyes. Though they are hollow they do not project lies…they project only your fears" she whispered sturdily and fiercely.
"Lies I tell you. You lie. What do you think you know mortal?" he shouted out blatantly.
Kaoru gasped. "Please…" she begged, "do not hate me if I see the truth…" her voice was soft.
His anger was boiling, this bloody woman, growling deep in his throat, his fists rolled into clenched balls as his feet began heading into her direction. Deep angered eyes, shadowed V-knitted brows said he was most angry. Kaoru stepped back when she saw him approaching. Swallowing the lump, she felt fright racing through her veins…
To Kaoru's unknowing she leaned against the wall completely spellbound by his devious amber pools. Grabbing her throat, he choked her, disallowing her to breathe. Kaoru watched him in horror…
"You know nothing of me…" he hissed in her face…
"But I ---I—I know…" she whispered fiercely, "I know—yo-you will be –re-gret-tin my dea-th" she saw his face flame into sear anger.
"ARGHHH" he shouted out in outrage.
Slapping her solid across the face, she dropped to the floor in pain and half-destroy soul.
She looked so lifeless, as if she was dead. All her hair was over her face as tears began falling, why, why do I find myself caring for soft shadows and the voices in the dark? I do not know their names but I offer them home and give them rest in my many halls and under my dry roof. I give them second chances and they return it by whispering coldness and offering me dust and wreckage. They break my heart into shards that are now splinters cutting my soul apart, bit by bit, memory after memory…
Tears that needed to fall, fell in free accordance without any keep back or hold. Battousai stepped back, I've hit her…
He stepped back wide-eyed in horror. He didn't mean for it to go like this…
He saw her crying, the muffled cries pulling at his conscience in guilt. To his shock, he heard laughter. The laughter owned from the woman on the floor…
"Hhahahah" she laughed, weakly and tiredly she hoisted her body from the floor, "hahahaha---why don't you---you finish it" she turned her face to him.
He gasped, her face was in tears…but what made the real fear kick in was the blood on her mouth…
If she knew what he thought, and was good for her, she would run ---run as far as possible from him. Battousai heard the soundless mantra from blood seductively calling at him…and aimlessly he came into Kaoru, canine first in a firm hiss…
He licked his canine walking straight in for the little virgin.
