Chapter 48
Yuki tells Serien goodnight needing to getaway. The pain, she is feeling, she has tried to ignore but it's not going away. She knows what is happening, she knows about the curse. She just won't let anyone take her child away. She knew if she stayed Kaname would force her to abort the child growing inside of her, not wanting to take the chance to see what would happen. She wasn't able to do that. She wanted this baby and would do everything she could for it to live. Even if it meant, she didn't. She knew Kaname would never understand that, or let it be.
Yuki goes upstairs to her room, trying to lay down in bed. The pains in her stomach, are as if something is eating through her. She just tries to lay down, and deal with what is happening. Knowing the Hunter blood is taking over the Vampire blood. She just hopes they merge into one, and both can survive. Each new pain makes her weaker and weaker. As her body tries to fight within itself.
"Yuki how are you feeling?" Serien asks coming in her room with a wet washcloth.
"The same, will it stop?" Yuki asks.
"Only when its done, either way. Are you sure you don't want me to call Kaname or Zero?" Serien asks.
"What's the point? Kaname will only worry and want to terminate the pregnancy and Zero doesn't care." Yuki answers.
"I am sure he does care. You know how he is, he just hides his feelings. This is getting very serious now, I know you want to protect this child, but if you're dead, your not going to be able to." Serien says with caution.
"I will do my best to survive this. I need to be here for him or her. Just if it has to be a choice, you do what you can for the child. Let me be." Yuki answers
"Kaname would have my head if I didn't do everything I can to take care of you. I know you love Zero and wanted a family with him, but is dying worth it?" Serien says.
"This child is worth everything to me. Its why I Came here. So if everything goes well I can keep it sheltered and happy. Most of all safe. I just have to get through this. Yuki says grabbing the sheets through the pain.
"It's only going to get worse. The only thing you have on your side is being a pureblood, I just hope that's enough." Serien comments.
"I guess we will see." Yuki answers.
All through the night, Serien stays with Yuki, hearing blood-curdling screams come out of her. The Vampire and Hunter sides were fighting, inside her, the baby was getting bigger and which side would win? The blood was never supposed to mix, and here it was doing just that. Would it intwine and become one? Or eat through Yuki? The Vampire side was trying to stay alive and let the host and baby live, where the hunter side was trying to kill them both. It was just its instinct. Serien just sat there and watched not sure she would be able to handle this alone.
She goes out into the hallway and calls the only person she knows she can trust. The only person she knew could help.
"Hanabusa, I need you and now," Serien says.
"What is wrong? What does Kaname need? You Know I will do anything for him." Hanabusa states.
"I know, but it's not for him. It's for Yuki and you must keep it hidden or else. It's very important. It's a life or death situation." Serien answers.
"Where are you? Kaname is going crazy looking for Yuki, so is Zero for that matter. They have gotten together to find her." Hanabusa comments.
"Now they come together? MEN! Anyway, I will pick you up, you must be blindfolded. You can't know where you're going that way you can't tell anyone where you are. She doesn't want them to know.." Serien replies.
"He will kill us all if he finds out we went against him. He is beside himself, you know its bad anytime he is trusting and working with Kiryu. Is it true she is pregnant?" Hanabusa asks.
"Kiryu, should be here, she needs him but she is being as stubborn as he is! So he finally realized and woke up? And yes she is pregnant its why I need you here." Serien replies.
"Yes, he woke up. They both did. You know her being like this is deadly..."Hanabusa states.
"Yes, I know all too well, it already started. She is bleeding terribly not to mention the pain. I need you to gather up some blood, she will need transfusions to stay alive. " Serien admits.
"I will gather up anything I think we will need. I still say they should both come with me. Serien if she dies then what?" Hanabusa asks.
"We will figure it out then, for now, just you. I have to keep my word. She doesn't want Kaname to terminate the baby. She would hate him for it and we are not going to do that. We both know him here, he would take control over everyone here." Serien responds.
"Yes, but Kiryu would be here to set him straight as well," Hanabusa says.
"Do you see that going well? And her in this state? Just gather your stuff and I will come to get you." Serien answers.
"Ok. We will do it your way for now." Hanabusa replies.
