The third chapter of Vampire Season Six: Hatred is now underway! A cloaked figure seems to know of Kairi, but how? And does it know of the others? Read onward, and find out. Note: this chapter contains a character death. Not from the anime, but someone else…
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the story and vampire saga plot. Thank you.
When Kairi got home, Shiloh was waiting for her, barking happily. Her apartment was filled with a PS2, a DDR mat, and a few video games scattered across the floor. She smiled, and picked up the mess, Shiloh following her, sniffing around the dusty floor. He sneezed, and Kairi giggled.
"Well, excuse you, Mr. Sniffles," she smiled. She yawned, and pretty soon, she was lying on her futon bed, her left arm hanging over the edge. Shiloh was curled up at the end of her bed, his back rising and falling peacefully. Outside, the cloaked figure from before landed on her balcony, silently opening the door. Shiloh's ears perked up, and he growled at the figure. With a small glowing on his concealed hand, the pup was soon bound up at the paws, his muzzle tied up to keep him from barking. Kairi's eyes opened, and she leapt upward, pulling out her cutlass.
"What, did you think I wouldn't be able to see you?" she asked sarcastically, pushing the figure away. The stranger pulled out his dagger, and flicked his wrist. Kairi suddenly glowed red, and she landed on her bed, her mouth bound up in a rag.
"Now, no one will hear you scream," the figure whispered, grinning evilly from beneath his cloak. Holding up the dagger, all that was heard from inside of the apartment were Shiloh's muffled whimpers and Kairi's muffles screams of pain.
-The next morning, Kame Turtle Game Shop-
"Hey guys," Joey whispered, pointing to the television. "Take a look at this." The news theme played, and a female reporter appeared onscreen.
"Good morning," she said, a smile appearing on her face. "I'm Trixie Yukoma with this morning's top story. Last night, a girl was found murdered in her apartment at around 1:22 in the morning. Her body was found on her bed, a single stab wound in her heart. The girl has been identified as Kairi Lumina." A photo of Kairi appeared on the screen, and the group fell silent. Yami turned the TV off, and just stared, a shocked look on his face. Yugi sobbed into his shoulder, as did Brian. Tea's sapphire eyes brimmed with tears, her brown hair covering them.
"Who would want to kill my daughter?" Parou asked, his entire body trembling at the very thought of his daughter. "She's done nothing wrong." The others nodded in agreement as the sunlight peeked into the game shop, trying to make the group happy. That did nothing.
I'm evil, aren't I? I killed my OC! How will they handle without her? Find out in chapter four, Remembering a Friend.
Review, please. (sobs quietly)
