Chapter 9 Worried?

Guren POV

"You worried?" I stared blankly at the sky as black smoke rises high in the air off in the distance. I'm sure that one of the other companies ran into some trouble but we didn't have time for this we have to keep moving.

"Hello, earth to Guren? My love is there something wrong?" At the sound of her sweet and worried voice, I felt compelled to turn around and answer her. But what the hell could I possibly be worried about? I have fought vampire scum before why would today be any different.

But as my gaze met her worried brown stare I knew that she was talking about Yuu, not me. I took in a deep even breath as I gripped her soft hand simply running my thumb over each one of her fingers before letting my mind focus on the bigger picture.

I stood up slowly as I heard the arrival of three more people. As I turn I was met with Goshi stupidly eager grin and the world looks of my former retainer and friend. Shigure who gave me this focused look, her forest green eyes saying it all she saw Yuu.

"They're doing fine " I nodded my head silently in thanks before turning around to see some big boss coming towards the troops. But my eyes were instantly drawn to a boy with soulless blue eyes and blond hair.

He seemed a little wimpy and way to thin and lean looking to be a vampire but then again appearance can be deceiving. "We end this assault right here, let's go." I charged into battle head first which wouldn't have been my first move but I don't think that I was entirely thinking straight at the moment.

I think that is made even more clear as a burning shooting pain echoed throughout my body as visions of my life passed before my eyes. The most recent one being Yuu, flashes of his smile or the days that the two of us spent with Sayuri. "GUREN!" I could hear her screaming as she, Mikoto and Shigure tired to get to me.

But as I stared deep into his soulless eyes I could feel nothing but disappointed is this how he is going to end the battle. "Just do it." Sorry, Yuu looks like I can't keep my promise to you.

The vampire brats, blue eyes darken slightly as he started to plunge the sword deeper into my chest. Damn, I felt a metallic tasting fluid filling my mouth's as crimson blood escaped my lips.

"DAD! Get your hands off of him." I knew that voice as I turn I caught wisps of Yuu's image as he stabbed the vampire scum but he seemed to freeze in place. Don't tell me that he is losing his nerve. Or he is more worried about me then himself. Either way, he is opening himself up.

"Dammit, Yuu what are you doing activate your curse" Fear flood my heart but not for my own life but for Yuu's, damn this kid. I yanked his shoulder pulling him far from the vampire scum who retreated back to that silver-haired freak

I went to punch Yuu in the head but my heart seemed to burst to force me to fall to my knees as I choked on some blood. "The hell are you doing you?"

He looked down at me, I could see how terrified he was to lose in just with one look into his emerald green eyes. I could tell that he was silently apologizing like this is his fault before turning back to the blond hair boy.

His soulless blue eyes lit up with something else it might have been shocking or fear as Yuu seemed more rigid as he stood.

Angry tears in his eyes as his clamped his hand tight against his swords guard. "Is that you Mika?" No way, I felt my own eyes widen in shock as I stood there unable to say a word.
