Chapter #4 A Race To Sunrise
Shido awoke in a silken bed, candelabras spreading a dim glow through the dank blackness he knew as Cain's room. Shido felt he was alone, struggling with the sheets he noticed he was alone.
'If I see Cain it'll be too soon,' he cursed to himself searching for his clothes.
What he found wasn't his clothes but they would do. He wore a white long-sleeved shirt, which he left unbuttoned revealing his pale chest due to the lack of time. Then he slipped on a pair of black pants. The clothes smelt of Cain, every stitch and fiber scented with the hard iron smell of blood, spices and yes wine. Shido cringed and peeked out the large oak door of Cain's room.
Shido knew Cain wouldn't leave him alone too long and escaping from the castle wasn't going to be easy, when he fled from Cain long ago he remembered getting out was a hell bound nightmare dipped in poison. There were so many corridors, paths, floors, he could only pray this time he could sneak away unnoticed. Shido looked around the hall, recognizing it he stepped out of Cain's bedchamber and down the hard wooden floor of the castle. He stayed close to the darkness blending in as best he could. His pulse raced with each step he took, each frightful second sending him more over the edge. If his heart beat any louder it would give him away.
Shido came to the wide twisting staircase that lead all the way down to the first floor. He had tumbled down those stairs, down the stairs of an 18th century castle, and a long ways down they were. His last escape wasn't as quiet and he wasn't as lucky, Cain had sent him flying with a quick blow to the stomach. Their last quarrel Cain wasn't about to let Shido leave and the fight was unavoidable.
So with a light step he carefully started down the stair. All went well, he was thankful to be so close to the bottom, until one squeaky floorboard made him freeze on the spot. It's old rustic groan echoing through the hall. He waited...nothing happened.
'Whew' thought a relieved Shido.
He peered out a nearby window the sun would be rising soon, he didn't have much time left. The purple was already set in the sky. Shido wouldn't get home in time even though there wasn't much of a home to go back to, anywhere away from Cain would be home.
"Well, well, well, what do we have here? A poor little one who lost his way, and where are you going?" rang an all too familiar voice.
Shido didn't even have time to react as his feet gave way to a full speed run for the exit.
"Ah this game again is it Shido, ok I'll play your little game." said Cain flying after with a smirk.
'A game?! A game!!!' thought Shido, 'I'll show him game, its called "watch Shido leave you forever," you bastard!'
Cain took out his whip and slashed Shido across the back. Shido lurched forward squeezing his eyes closed on impact, but he kept running, determined to get to that door. Cain flung his whip once again this time wrapping it's self around the fleeing vampires ankle and pulled him to a startling stop face first into the floor.
"Argh!" grunted out an already recovering Shido.
'He's just toying with me that bastard!'
He got back to his feet but wasn't quick enough as his former master slammed him up against the far sidewall. Thus creating a crater of Shido's silhouette damaging the poor castles old and crippled interior.
Shido's head hung low in an almost unconscious state, his closed eyes slightly moving under their lids.
"Why must we go through this every time?" said a sarcastic Cain in a voice that seemed tired and mocking, "but this is what I love about you Shido. Now are you quite done with your game?"
"NO! I'm not!" said Shido coming back to consciousness, and with that sudden burst of energy he reeled Cain across the room and started back down the way.
Cain leered down the hallway taking his time in getting up.
"You will regret that one Shido." He said brushing some stray hairs from his face. For being calm and stoic all the time Cain did look a little ruffed up.
Then coming fast out of the darkness came a disk aimed for the violet haired vampire, but he quickly dodged it by turning a sharp corner. It crashed into the floor exploding and destroying yet another part of the castle.
Shido stared ahead he saw the door, his freedom, his way out! Shido suddenly spun around; he bit his finger and repelled tiny pelts of blood towards Cain. They shot at Cain; he tried to block them shielding himself with his arms. As this was happening Shido took a long awaited sprint to the front door. He grasped the heavy gold handle and thrust the door open. Panting he prepared to run the rest of the way across the courtyard and somewhere safe.
"No Shido the sun!" yelled Cain.
The sun had risen, its light falling across the earth. Shido's heart sunk in his chest. His mouth gaped open and he went limp, not because of the daylight but because now all his attempts to escape, all his effort and energy had been wasted. Either he'd die in the sun or be stuck forever confined with Cain; never to escape again, and with each second the sun seemed like a pretty good choice.
Soon enough the sun enveloped Shido's body and he felt a burning sensation on his skin, he was ready to die to finally be unburdened and he felt as if a great weight was lifted off his shoulders, he felt at peace. But then, a pale hand reached out from the doorway grasping Shido hard by the shoulder and pulling him back into the darkness, back into the night and into eternity. After quickly pulling Shido back in Cain slammed the door closed cutting off the rays of the sun. Panting Cain held a still dazed Shido in his arms. Closing his eyes he picked up the silent Shido and carried him back to his chambers.
"I thought I had lost you...Shido," sighed Cain.
