Authoress Note: Hey, I updated again. Well this chapter has very little to do with the main plot of the story but hey, I had a whim. I felt like writing a scene between Hex and Sakashima. Since Cain has both Kitani and Shido, I thought the two of them could resort to each other. Personnally I think it's cute. I didn't go as far as I wanted to with this. Though I will later. Maybe I'll even get a good sex scene into it.

Warning! This chap may contain some erotic moments that some people may not like. I'm giving you fair warning so it's your own damn fault if you read it and have dreams! JK Buhbyes!

Both Hex and Sakashima raced for cover. The sun was coming! They hadn't found Cain or Kitani but there was no time left. They arrived at the back window to their apartment and the elder of the two fumbled to open the lock. AS it clicked free, he grabbed his younger sibling and flung him inside, diving after and shutting the blinds.

The room was pitch black and silent. On the labored breathing of the two immortals broke the stillness.

"Hex? Are you alright?" Sakashima waited for an answer but there was nothing. "Hex, answer me? Are you well?"

"I-I think but . . . " There came a small whimper from the darkness. "Saka, it hurts."

To this the elder advanced on the light swtich. "Hex I'm turning on the light, cover your eyes." He flicked on the light that sent him into a world of blinding sparks.

When everything became clear, he saw Hex lying on his side, curled into a small ball. His trenchcoat was thrown to the side, abandoned. His back and shoulders were beet red and raw in some places. Sakashima sighed.

"Hex, you got burned." He knelt beside the boy, resting his cold fingers on the scorched surface. It made Hex's back arch away from him and small whimpers fall from his lips.

"Sakashima, don't do that . . . " Tears rolled from his eyes. "Why does it hurt so badly? I was only exposed for a few seconds."

The violet haired immortal pulled the younger boy's head into his lap. "You're still young. I'm burned, but only slightly." He slipped his buttoned shirt over his head. There were blotches of red and pink on his chest and face. "I'll get Master's burn ointment for you."

Standing, he laid Hex down gently and went into Cain's study. Upon digging through his Master's cabinets and finding the ointment, he stood in the doorway. He watched Hex as he lay there in pain. Sakashima has always felt some sort of affection toward the younger vampire. He'd almost fallen for him. Or maybe he already had, he was just denying it.

He'd always loved Hex's eyes. Esspecially his eyes. Those blue soulless eyes that held a spark of hunger almost all the time. There seemed to be no way to satiate his needs. His needs for blood, for entertainment, for attention. Hex needed to be loved. If he wasn't, he'd go insane.

The vampire came back to himself. He'd been staring at Hex for a while. So long that the younger immortal had fallen asleep. The dawn weighed heavily on his shoulders.

Picking up his sibling, he sat them both on the couch. They really weren't siblings. They weren't born from the same family. In fact, their families had been very different. They only called each other brothers because theay had the same master. They called Kitani sister for the same reason.

The black haired immortal groaned, coming back to life. "Saka . . . did you find the medicine?"

His elder nodded. "But I need you to sit up for me." Hex shuddered as he sit up. The violet turned to him so he faced the boy's back. He gently rubbed the medicine on his hands and traced the tips of his fingers along Hex's spine. He massaged the cream into his skin, making the boy whimper.

Strangely, Sakashima enjoyed that sound. He leaned Hex against him and ran his fingers along his burnt sides. The boy groaned, wincing.

"Saka . . . be careful. That hurts." There were more tears rolling down his face. His elder rested his head against the side of his. Sakashima squeezed more cream into his palm and rubbed Hex's shoulders, harder than he had before.

The boy groaned, little high pitched noises falling from his parted lips. His head fell back onto Sakashima's shoulder. Rivers flowed down his face.

"Why are you hurting me?" Hex complained. The violet ran his fingers up his spine, making him arch away and hunch forward.

"I'm so very sorry Hex. Let me help you take the pain away." He pulled Hex back against him, one hand workiung on his shoulder, the other caressing his fevered face. The boy spilled out confused sounds to respond. He made small sighs of relief mixed among his groans of pain.

Sakashima closed his eyes, enjoying the moment. He breathed in his sibling's scent, nuzzling his ear. His instincts were raging and he wouldn't be able to hold himself back.

"Hex . . . " he hissed, blowing into the boy's ear. "If we continue like this my control will snap. Would you rather we call it a night, or rather, a day?" His brtoher relaxed against him.

"Will this medicine help me? Will my burns heal over the course of the day?"

Sakashima sighed. "I really don't know. Though I know something that will help, definitely."

"And what is that?" Hex took the hand that was touching his burns and wrapped it about his waist. The elder immortal tilted Hex's chin back so the boy was staring at the ceiling. Biting his own wrist, Sakashima broke free a flow of his powerful essence. He pressed the cut to Hex's lips.

Immediately, the boy wrapped his mouth around the wound. He filled his veins with Sakshima's blood. The most minor of the burns vanished under this power.

Shido's dark side moaned lightly, his tongue flicking the small earring that hung from Hex's ear. The moments grew longer. The young vampire refused to let go of the wrist. Sakashim winced as it became painful. Hex needed his strength but if the boy killed him, what good would it be?

The violet haired immortal watched intentively as Hex's mouth worked on his wrist. He watched his throat shift as he swallowed. Suddenly some quite vulgar thoughts appeared in Sakashima's head. He had images of the boy's mouth working on places other than his wrist.

The flame of need appeared, flaring deep within the vampire's chest. Needs that could not be ignored. Ones he'd experienced before and others he hadn't. His eyes trained on the pulsing vein that throbbed so very close to his face. He couldn't let hex drink him dry, but he didn't want to leave the boy injured.

Gently Sakashima leaned his head down to rest his lips on the vein. Hex was so entranced with feeding that he didn't seem to notice. Or maybe he did and he just didn't care. The elder licked at the pulsating skin, scraping the tips of his teeth over it. But still Hex refused to react. Becoming a little annoyed at being ignored. Sakashima bit down on the spot, dragging his nails down the boy's shoulder.

Breaking his hold on the man's wrist, Hex let out a frightful gasp. From surprise or pleasure, it was hard to tell, maybe a bit of both. The black-haired vampire fell limp against his brother small, cracking moans resounding in the dark room. He couldn't help but lead the hand that rested on his stomach to the threshold of his lower half.

Yet Sakashima didn't take it further. He let his fingertips rest among the forest of curling hair that it had been led to, but he didn't touch. No matter how much he wanted to, he restrained himself. His self-control was amazing. Even with the bare back of his unsuspecting lover pressed against him; even with the burning desire spawned from the mutual exchange of blood; and even Hex's body grinding against him, begging for more but only being countered by a throbbing lump, Sakashima remained in control.

He released the boy's throat and collapsed backward. Laying on his back, he stared toward the ceiling, panting lightly.

"Saka? Are you okay?" Hex crawled up, laying his form along the outside edge of the couch. His throat wound was almost gone. It seemed that the blood transfusion had done some help.

"I'm fine. Are you feeling better?" He rolled onto his side to face Hex, his back resting against the back of the couch. The young vampire snuggled into his brother's chest. they were both covered in tiny rivlets of bloody sweat.

"I feel wonderful. Though . . ." He leaned up to place a small kiss on Sakashima's lips. "Maybe sometime we can pick up where we left off." He pressed their hips together for a moment, ensuring that his elder knew what he was impling.

Sakashima sighed heavily, wrapping his arms around Hex then roling onto his back so the boy lay on top of him. Hex's burns would like the open air more than the cloth of the couch. The two of them cuddled together, their legs entwined.

"Saka? Tomorrow? Do you think we'll find them? Master and Kitani, I mean." Hex's voice was small, muffled from their closeness. "Do you think they're safe?"

The elder sighed against his ear. "They are. I know they are. Get some sleep now. We'll search as soon as dusk arrives." He felt Hex nod and soon the boy was still against him. He had fallen into the coma-like sleep of their kind. The same sleep that threatened to take over Sakashima's mind as well. He brushed a lock of hair from his love's face and stared toward the shuttered window. I hope you're alright, Master.

Another Authoress Note: Aww so cute! Well I'm going to do this in seperate chaps. One for Cain and Kitani, then One on Sakashima and Hex, one on Shido, the one updating on Riho and Yayoi's situation. I may merge the last two into one chap because there's not much to update on. Then I'll start back at the beginning and so on. That is until the plots merge together. It should get good then. So until next time, ja ne!
