Me: Sorry for the small wait! This chapter is very dark.*Evil smile*
Vlad: That smile makes me want to piss myself.
Me: Good *Evil Laughter* Now, Say the words.
Vlad: Brina doesn't own Hetalia and don't read this if you hate gore, horror, or yaoi… if you didn't before, how did you get this far?
Me: I don't know…. Maybe there are different levels of each type? Like maybe, some like a few drops of blood but hate puddles of blood.
Vlad: Good point.
Chapter 4.3
(#7 – Believe in the little things)
*Vlad's POV*
As soon as Matthew got pulled inside the dumbwaiter, I got in and started climbing. Halfway up, I heard Lukas and Arthur climb into the dumbwaiter. When we finally got out, Arthur pulled out his wings to light up the room. All we saw was a long hallway with a single door.
Out of nowhere, we heard a loud scream that I recognized as Matthew's. I ran down the hallway and opened the door. All that was in the room was two beds and the next door between them. I heard demonic laughter as the door slammed shut behind me before Arthur and Lukas could come in.
"Let's play a little game," it said then two Matthews appeared on the beds, "Choose the right one and you'll get closer saving him, but if you choose wrong then he dies."
The two Matthews looked at me and I saw the deep bruises on both of their hips.
"Vlad! Come save me!" The one on the right said.
"Vlad run! Go save everyone else from the demon!" The left one said while crying.
I knew that my Matthew would try to save others over himself, so I walked over to the left one. Right as I reached to touch him, both Matthews disappeared.
"Ding! Ding! You chose right! Now, for round two!" then both doors opened.
Lukas and Arthur walked in from the door behind me.
"What's going on? As soon as you walked in here, the door slammed shut and we couldn't get in," Arthur said to me
"This fucking demon is playing with me," I said then my fangs slipped out.
We walked through the next door to a hallway full of imps and spirits with one door at the very end.
"Go get him, we will deal with them," Lukas said to me as he lit a fireball in his hand.
I nodded my head then I used my magic to become one with the shadows. I slid past all the creatures and reached the door. I separated myself from the shadows before walking in the dark room.
The door slammed shut behind me and the room lit itself up. I saw Matthew slumped against the wall then I ran to him.
"Matt!"
He looked up and I almost cummed just from the look of pure lust in his eyes.
"Vlad!~" he reached out to grab me, "come cuddle with me."
I pushed him away.
"I know you're not the real Matthew."
"Why do you say that?" he said as he crawled towards me.
"Because even when he had an aphrodisiac in his system, he'll never act like this."
He pounced on me without any warning and pinned me to the ground.
"You guessed right! But you'll never see each other again," the fake Matthew opened his mouth and I saw the razor sharp teeth, "at least in this life."
I wanted to fight him but he looked too much like my dear Matthew and I couldn't hurt him. Right before he could bite my throat out, a lightning bolt shot him off me.
"May the impure souls burn forever in your own hell," Arthur said as he shined his pure light on it.
Lukas had to create an earth wall to protect me from the light. I got up and we all walked into the next room together.
The first thing I saw was Matthew's death-glazed eyes, and then I saw how the demon was holding him in a mock embrace. The demon looked up and I saw Matthew's blood covering his face as he smiled.
"My hunger for flesh and blood is always growing, and I get so horny I want to ravish every human as soon as I touch them," it said while still holding Matthew.
I pulled out a dagger and Arthur quickly blessed it.
"I understand the thirst for blood but this is a very evil way of quenching it," I said as I walked towards it.
"Oh? And how do you know? I can tell you're not a demon."
"No, I'm worse," then I stabbed it in his heart, "I'm a vampire."
I grabbed Matthew when it got distracted.
"Demon, be exorcized from this land," Arthur said.
The demon disappeared and I heard Lukas yell for help. I saw him carry a guy with blonde hair and blue eyes, the guy was wearing a iron cross. Right when Arthur helped Lukas with the guy, the floor broke from under all of us. Luckily, I fell on a bed and I soften Matthew's fall, the blond haired guy landed on the other bed, and Arthur used his wings to slowly fall with Lukas in his arms. The door slammed open and the rest of our group came in. Lovino took one look at Matt and ran over to me. I noticed that's Matthew wasn't breathing and his deep gashes weren't bleeding at all.
"Shit! He's lost a lot of blood! I can't heal him!" Lovino said.
That worried me, Lovino is a healer and its bad when he can't heal.
"Why?!"
"He's too close to death!"
"Don't worry Frattello! I can help you!" Feli said before running over to us.
They both started to speak in fast Italian and I saw that his wounds started to close up. I let out a breath, I didn't even know that I was holding, when I saw his eyes gain a little bit of life in them.
"I need pasta," Feli said when he was done.
"We're done healing his body but we just have to wait for him to chose," Lovino said as he sat down.
"What do you mean?"
"When we healed him, he was already at death's door and he must make the choice to pass on or return to the land of the living."
We all decided to stay in the room to be safe. I took the first watch because I was too worried about Matthew to get any sleep.
"Don't worry, he's no longer near death's gate," a voice said next to me.
I turned to see who it was, and I almost fell off the bed. There was a male ghost sitting next to me.
"What are you doing here, ghost?"
"It's me, Gilbert. You know the awesome wolf that was helping you."
I looked closer and saw that his eyes were the same as the wolf and his hair was the same color as the fur.
"How does your spirit change forms and how do you know that?"
"One, I was a werewolf and because I'm a spirit, I can travel to the land between death and life. He's slowly coming back to this world. Look."
I looked down and saw that his chest started to move.
"Hey Gilbert, do you know what caused the demon?"
"Many, many, years ago, this was a low down hotel that people used for murders, prostitutes, and drug deals. All the evil started to come together and it laid dormant until someone was recently killed a month ago. It's thirst for blood and lust woke it up and it started to hunt. Now, that you damaged him, most of the spirits are free."
"Is it safe to sleep without a watch?" I asked then I yawned.
"Yes, I'll wake you if there's any danger."
I closed my eyes and fell asleep while holding on Matthew.
Me: I swear I need to make someone else the victim soon.
Matthew: yes, you do.
Me: Meh, I'll do it later.
*Canada just sighs*
