No more running:

Part Four

By Ninja Misao


The rain slowed down to a drizzle as the sliver haired woman smiled evilly watching the young brown haired lass about to suck her master dry. As Riho fangs were just about to pierce the skin Cain jumped down from a building into the alley.

"Open your eyes Shido!"Cain yelled

Snapping out of the trance, the lavender haired vampire disappeared from view but reappear behind his Secretary grabbing her arms and holding them behind her back.

The sliver haired women backed away a bit her eye grew angry as she looked at the blonde haired vampire.

"Cain…it's been a long time since I have seen that face of yours..." The sky blue eyed lass said with a slight growl.

"The same could be said about you as well." The blonde haired vampire said gently putting Yayoi down against the wall.

Both enemies looked at each other for a short time before Avalon snapped her fingers and out from the shadow a dozen nightbreeds and four vampires appeared. The four stood in front of Avalon while the nightbreeds began their attack, Cain bit his finger producing a blood sword and ran at the nightbreeds.

Moving out of the way Shido turned Riho around and had her up against the wall. His amber eyes looked into hers. They brown haired lass was trying to escape his grasp but he would not let her. Not knowing what to do the midnight detective pulled her into an embrace. At first she tired to fight him but that quickly stopped as the lavender haired vampire gently rubbed her back.

"Your hungry I know, don't worry I'll make sure you'll get something to eat." The private investor said kissing Riho on her head.

The N.O.S agent stood up and walked over to them. Shido gave her over to Yayoi and nodded as he ran to help his master.

After taking out six of them Cain was getting tired he didn't know why he felt so weak he could barely keep his blood sword working. Dropping down to one knee Cain though this was the end until a blade whip wrapped around two of the breed's necks and broke them. The blonde haired vampire turned to see Shido jump in front of him with his eyes filled with determination.

"…Shido be careful." With a node the lavender haired vampire ran at Avalon only to be stopped by another wave of nightbreeds.

"Dang it she can control night breeds!" Shido yelled slicing down the breeds. Cain got back on his feet and aided the midnight detective.

"Yes I never found her weakness." The blonde vamp said taking out two more breeds.

Next to the wall, the red haired agent smiled a when the young brown haired lass bit into her neck and started to drink her blood. Yayoi moaned lightly as she rubbed the girls back letting her take as much as she needs. Once she was done Riho then began to Avalon's voice aching though head.

"Come now don't listen to them they want to stop me help me Riho don't let them win." Avalon said in Riho's mind.

Holding her head she wanted to scream but Yayoi held her close.

"Everyone is fighting for you so the choice is up to you will you let her control you and keep on running or stop running and stand up for yourself."the NOS agent said.

The brown haired lass looked up Yayoi and then stood up.

Looking pass the breeds she watched the vamps that were protecting Avalon and balled up her fist. She ran and flipped over everyone and landed in front of the vamps. At first the sliver haired women was going to welcome her until she saw the anger on her face.

"…How could you think of turning on me I gave you everything!"Avalon yelled

"No… you took everything from me and had me running away from my life. Well no one can run forever it ends now!" Riho yelled as the vamps circled around her.

She looked them as they came to a stop she never let her eyes leave any of them for a minute.

When the nightbreeds died down Shido was about to run and help Riho before Cain stopped him. Shaking his head no they watched the fight. Soon the vampires all ran at her with their fangs drawn. The brown haired lass blocked most of their attack and got knocked back to the wall. Shaking it off Riho got back up and looked around the alley. Two of the vamps ran at her, picking up something quickly she stabbed it in one of the vamps causing him to turn to dust, And quickly stabbed the other one in the heart as well before getting knocked to the wall. With two vamps gone Avalon was getting very nervous. The remaining vamps ganged up on Riho with tons of combos, but that all stopped when the young secretary broke out with a pair of blood daggers slicing the arms off and picking up the stake and stabbing them both.

With the last ones turned to dust Avalon was about to attack when the sun began to rise in the sky. The being of darkness body began to fade. "No!" the sliver haired lass said as the sun rose higher and in a mater of moment Avalon mistress of the dark was no more. In the shadows Shido and the others walked away.

Back at the detective agency Shido sitting in his chair with the shaded closed with Guni on his shoulder. Yayoi and Riho were sitting on the couch while Cain was close to the door.

"I'm glad to be home where I belong, I promise I won't run away ever again." The young brown haired girl said walking over to Shido.

"That's good news to hear, so Cain are we still number one on your list "Yayoi asked escorting the blond vampire out the door with her.

"No…but I will be around to help if that's okay with you." The blonde vamp said.

"No problem, I'm fine with that" Yayoi said

Riho walked over to Shido and gave him a big hug. The midnight detective gave her one back. They looked into each other's eyes and smiled as he led her to his coffin. Upon open the coffin the both got inside after taking off all their clothes and snuggled close.

"I missed you my Riho…" Shido whispered

"I have missed you as well my master."Rhio replied

Upon those words they both closed their eyes in each others arms glad to be together one more.

No one can run forever…
