Chapter 2

Abductions And Her Annoying Teacher

The sun that was supposed to show its radiant and bright face hid itself behind a pattern of gray clouds. The new day at Domino started with pouring rain and overcast weather once again. The continuation of the thunderstorm kept each and every living being from doing much of anything. Only few vehicles and pedestrians were seen as tiny black specks from birds eye view, moving very slowly in the misfortunate weather. Hardly anyone wanted to enjoy themselves in a day like this. But who would ever? Not our famous Slayer, not the young boy with spiky tri-colored hair who lived in the turtle game shop, not even the young cold CEO that isolated himself in the swirling darkness of his company.

Speaking of the CEO, something was quite not right. Even in the rain, the aura around the famous skyscraper with the logo KC that stood above every building in the community seemed tense. Police cars and the news crew swarmed instantly around the building, holding discussions about what might have happened. By passers stopped to share in the curiosity and stared at the scene with worried expressions. At one spot, a young boy with long raven hair stood in front of a dozen reporters who were asking him questions concerning the problem that was yet to be solved.

" So you are saying that he just disappeared when you came to check up on him?" asked one reporter.

" How would you explain the trail of blood found in his office?" asked another.

" Do you think it maybe the fact that he committed suicide?"

" You are his brother am I not correct?"

" What other traces of evidence have you found?"

" Mr. Kaiba…"

"STOP IT!!" the young Kaiba screamed which caused the surprised reporters to back away an inch. " I told you that I don't know!! I just saw the trail of blood in his office but my brother wasn't there okay?!!" he tried to hold back the tears that was now running down his cheek. " And I know he did not commit suicide because he would be found lying dead! So stop asking me stupid questions and LEAVE ME ALONE!!!" he ran away from the crime scene and into the building, avoiding the policemen who tried to stop him.

He ran down the gigantic halls, up the oh so long stairs all the way to the office where he saw his brother for the last time. He fell down on his knees and lowered his head, avoiding looking at the trail of blood that started from the revolving chair, all the way to the open window. " What happened to you, Seto?" He whispered and sobbed silently. A huge gust of wind blew a piece of paper with an "X" mark on it through the window and landed next to the raven-haired boy.

Meanwhile, in the Marinako mansion, Julie was in the dining room, looking at the view of the city from the huge circular windows that reached all the way around the area of the wall. She had just woken up and still had her pajamas on, drinking orange juice that the maid left her.

" Is there something wrong Ms. Marinako?" the maid came in with a tray containing a bowl of cereal and toast.

" No, just thinking about when this rain would stop," Julie turned and walked over to the food tray that was now placed on the dining table and grabbed a piece of toast. " You know, this kind of weather makes it easy for night breeds to kill their victims. Who knows if there's a vampire out there right now doing their deeds."

" I am sure if there is, you will certainly be the one to slay it," the maid answered, taking the tray before exiting the dining room. Julie resumed to watch the rain splitter down the stainless glass window and closed her eyes, thinking about her mother who died of a fatal heart disease right at the hospital. She left a message to her daughter before she died, something that Julie would always remember at times when she felt confused or weak when fighting a night breed.

Only 12 months before the death of her father, Julie's mother was sent to the emergency room as quickly as possible due to her heart conditions getting worse. Julie, only a toddler, watched in tears as her mother was taken away, breathing as hard as she could under the face mask. Soon after, the doctor delivered the sad news to both to Julie and her father that her mother won't be able to live for long but she wanted to see her daughter's face the last time. Julie sat close to her mother in her bed so she could breath in her wonderful scent. Her mother took her daughter's face in her soft palms and made her look straight into her eyes, delivering her final words.

" Julie Marinako, my sweet daughter, before I die, I want you to remember this. Tears of pain and anguish only lead people to face their weakness. However, you are not weak, you are strong. Therefore, crying for me and for those who you love that is in pain or at the point of death will only cloud your senses and haunt your mind forever. To stay strong, you must forget these moments at times when you need to. To stay strong, you must have a clear mind and soul." She continued, " And if ever when you land at a point where you are confused or in pain, brush the disturbing thoughts off your mind, and believe that you are strong. Believe…that it is only you who can defeat those who stand in your path."

Even if Julie was small then and didn't quite understand what her mother had said to her, she still memorized it, knowing that what her mother said was something important, something that could help her in the future.

Suddenly, the ringing of the telephone almost made Julie jump. The silence in the room gave her the opportunity to think back at her past and the sudden sound sort of snapped her back to where she was standing.

Julie went to the nearest phone and picked up the receiver. " Marinako resident, who is speaking?"

A few seconds of silence was heard followed by a loud cough. " Yes, I'm uh…Mr.Akuso, is Julie Marinako available please?"

Julie drew a heavy sigh away from the receiver and recognized emediately who it was. Mr. Akuso was her high school teacher who seemed to take a very good interest on his favorite pupil. Everyday, he would ask Julie to have lunch with him in the outdoor bench and favor her a ride home after school. Even if he was one of the youngest and most charming teachers in the school building and was every girl's dream guy, Julie just didn't seem to like him that way. Her teacher was kind and thoughtful, but very annoying.

" This is she," Julie answered back.

" Oh! Julie, I'm so sorry, I didn't recognize your voice for a second. You are growing up so much every day that your voice is becoming so deep and mature!" He said with much enthusiasm as possible. " I called to see if you are busy right now."

" No Mr. Akuso, I just ate breakfast and luckily (being sarcastic) I wasn't going to plan on doing anything in this weather."

" That's great! I mean…splendid. I was wondering since you are not busy right now, maybe I can come over to your house and we can have tea. What do you say?"

Julie was going to say "no" directly since her teacher was obviously more desperate to meet her than she thought and would do anything to do so, but she tried a different approach.

" But Mr. Akuso, did you bother to look outside your window because it is raining very hard. Maybe you should come another day when it's more sunny out."

" No, no, it's alright. I can withstand any weather, even hail or snow. Besides, it's not that I'm going to walk all the way over to your huge mansion, I'll come in my SUV van so I won't get wet in the storm."

" Well…okay then…"

" Great! I'll come over as soon as I can!" he interrupted, " Goodbye Julie, I hope to see you then!" he hung up.

Julie put down the phone and heaved an even bigger sigh. There was no doubt that this man was in desperate need to get a life and stop stalking other people up to their doorsteps. She decided since he was coming after all that would be best to change into something other than her pajamas. She went into the grand hallway and was almost about to go upstairs to her room when she caught sight of the front page of the newspaper.

She picked the newspaper up which was placed neatly on a random table, stared at the headline that read "CEO OF KAIBA CORP, MISSING" and began reading with a concerned look on her face.

After she was done, a smile suddenly crept across her face. Clearly this was a perfect opportunity to go check out the crime scene. Also, it was the perfect time to have an excuse to not be home when her teacher would arrive.

Julie ran upstairs, and changed into her slayer outfit with the black overcoat and her black gloves with the cross on it. She knew for a reason that this abduction of the CEO was clearly done by a vampire due to the fact that the paper said they found another slip of paper with the mark "X". She went to look for the butler who was busy cleaning the guest room and told him where she was going. First the butler refused to let her go in the stormy weather but said "yes" at the end anyway. "Be careful, Julie!" he said while she grabbed an umbrella and dashed out the door. The butler watched her go and disappear into the distance.

He was about to close the huge mahagony doors when suddenly he heard a honk outside. The butler saw a SUV parked right in front of the mansion and a man wearing a very expensive looking suit came out with an umbrella from the driver's seat. He had a bouquet of roses and looked up at the mansion.

"Whoah, this is one huge place." He walked up to the front doors where the butler was standing. "Hello, I'm Mr. Akuso. I came here to see Ms. Julie Marinako because we were supposed to have tea together."

"Ah yes, you must be that gentlemen she was talking about," the butler continued. "Unfortunately, she just left the house right now so…"

"What!! I mean…I can wait for her," the man interrupted, disappointed that Julie wasn't home.

"But you see sir, she won't be back for a long time so I suggest you come back another day when it is not raining out."

"No, no, no, I have all the time in the world. There is nothing more important to me than being with my students," the man answered back as he waited patiently to be welcomed in.

The butler rolled his eyes as if it was the most pathetic thing he had ever heard from a man who only visited one of his students. "Very well, sir. Please do come in and take a seat as I prepare some tea."

The butler welcomed Julie's teacher in and took his half drenched coat and umbrella. The man looked around with wide eyes at the expensive pieces of paintings on the wall and furniture. He sat on a cheetah-fur covered couch and picked up a framed picture of a young Julie with her parents from the front table. He stroked the young girl's picture and put the frame back in place.

"So do you know where Ms. Marinako went to?" he asked the butler who was coming in with some tea.

The butler put the tea down on the front table beside the framed picture and gave a short smile to the man.

"Out to slay another night-breed."
