McFuzzy: Alrighty then. Thanks to my reviewers, because I always like feedback! Chapter five is finally up and we get some neat moments with L and Light. I'm sure that will be much appreciated.
Light: What do you mean "neat" moments?
Ryuuzaki: I am also curious in finding the answer to this.
McFuzzy: Hrm. It seems you will have to find out.
Light: Hey, I have a question. Why do you make me hurt myself?
McFuzzy: Comic relief.
Light: This is a story about death, and you need comic relief?
McFuzzy: I'm not very good at serious writing.
Ryuuzaki: She has a point.
Light: Yeah, I guess you're right. This is coming from a person whose hero is Will Ferrell.
McFuzzy: Don't you be back-talking my Will!
Light: Oh, never mind. Just enjoy the story. But not really ; )
McFuzzy: I heard that!! Please Review for me! It makes me feel special, (Hugs).
Chapter 5 A Vampire's Touch
Light was walking back to his apartment from his date with Misa. He had already dropped her off and told her note to call him; he would call her. For some reason he couldn't feel Ryuuzaki's presence around him.
He was feeling utterly weak, and oddly enough the coffee he just drank didn't help at all. He had a very difficult time getting up the stairs; he practically drug himself to his door and staggered inside to the living room.
He saw Ryuuzaki standing in a shadow of his sun-filled apartment, and remembered Misa opening all the curtains.
He smiled weakly. "Sorry Ryuuzaki." Ryuuzaki continued to stand in the corner, wide-eyed, watching Light meticulously as he closed the curtains. As shadows filled the room, he stepped out of his hiding place. Light plopped himself down onto the couch and put a hand to his forehead.
"I think I'm getting sick." He stated. Ryuuzaki walked over to him and placed his hand on Light's forehead.
"That would be a negative, Raito-kun. I think I might know the solution to your problem."
"Oh, really?" Light watched as Ryuuzaki fumbled with something in his sweater pocket. Light watched in curiosity as he took out a red-colored pouch.
"I suggest that Raito-kun drink this. It will make him feel better."
"Ryuuzaki, what is that?" Light had an idea, but he didn't want to believe it.
"Blood." He always had a way with being blunt. Light shook his head.
"You've got to be kidding me, Ryuuzaki. You told me yourself that I was still human. Why would I need to drink blood?" Ryuuzaki slouched into Light's kitchen area and brought out a glass. He tore open the bag and poured it in.
"As I've stated before, Raito-kun, I have given you some of my powers. In order to live like a vampire, you must eat like one." He pulled off a paper towel and wiped up a spill. "This, however, does not mean that Raito-kun can only drink blood."
"He just needs it to keep strong, and to keep his powers working. He can still eat human food, unlike most vampires. When they eat human food, it turns into dust. This is why Zombies eat humans, and not their food."
Light remembered the man chasing him when he was running for the bus. "If that's true, then why can you eat sugar?" Ryuuzaki brought the glass over to Light and set it on his coffee table. He sat next to Light on the couch and brought his knees to his chest. Light winced at his bad posture.
"I see Raito-kun is as observant as ever. After having lived for a certain amount of time, all vampires can ask for one request. One of my acquaintances asked for sun; I asked for sugar. Our choices were very limited, however." Light just looked at him in disbelief. His stomach twined in pain. "Please drink this, Raito-kun."
"There is no way in Hell I'm going to drink that, Ryuuzaki!" He felt his body convulse a bit. This was bad.
"You are in a bad condition. You should drink before you pass out." Light suddenly sat up and punched Ryuuzaki in the face. He fell backwards and rolled off the couch. How could he casually ask something like this of Light?
"No. Way. In. Hell." He felt his body convulse again. Ryuuzaki sat up and kicked Light in the stomach. He also rolled off the couch, grasping his stomach in pain. He was too weak to put up a fight.
He bounced forward and jabbed Ryuuzaki in the stomach, and watched as he fell backwards. He tugged Light on top of him then threw him off. Light landed on the floor with a crash, and lay on his back in frustration. He couldn't move his arms; he was too weak.
"Shit."
Ryuuzaki hovered above Light, noticing that he wasn't going to retaliate. He put the cup to his mouth and took a sip of blood. He perched his legs on each side of Light and leaned back over, planting his lips firmly to Light's.
Light wriggled underneath of Ryuuzaki as he felt blood running into his mouth. He was shocked. Ryuuzaki moved his tongue around in Light's mouth to make sure he was swallowing. Reluctantly, Light swallowed the blood.
Ryuuzaki pulled his lips away, a stream of bloody saliva connecting their mouths. Light was blushing. He couldn't believe it! He had just been force-fed blood and he was blushing! Ryuuzaki took another large sip of blood and knelt over Light again. He let the blood freely flow into Light's mouth, moving is tongue around to get all of it out. Light was actually enjoying it.
Instead of the normal metallic taste that blood had, it was sweet, but very poignant. He reveled in the richness of the taste, almost like liquid chocolate. Before he knew it, Light was kissing Ryuuzaki, trying to get the blood from his mouth.
Ryuuzaki suddenly jerked away. "Does Raito-kun like it?" He asked huskily. L noticed that Light was half lidded and blushing. "It's virgin blood. I wanted Raito-kun's first experience to be a good one."
"Yeah," He admitted ashamedly. Ryuuzaki went to put more blood in his mouth, but Light stopped him. "I can do it." Light sipped on the blood and gulped it down rather quickly, while Ryuuzaki watched him intently. He wiped the blood dribbling off of his chin.
He lifted himself to the couch and lay down. "Ryuuzaki, I feel… strange," was all he managed to slip out. He felt a strange tingling in his mouth where he has sipped the blood. He felt his body start to tremble. "What's happening?" He put his hands to his face. Then pain; lots and lots of pain.
"Fuck! What the hell is this?!" He writhed on the couch gasping in pain. His mouth felt like it was on fire. "Ryuuzaki! What's happening?!" He screamed in pain as he twitched. He couldn't think, he couldn't breathe; all he could concentrate on was the pain.
His mind blacked out suddenly. He felt he was still awake, but in front of him he saw a beautiful woman. His pain suddenly dispersed as he watched the woman gently sit there on a bench, stoking her hair and staring towards the sky.
She was in a surrounding that matched her beauty, putting light at ease. It was night; beautiful and dark. He looked at the brilliant crescent moon that seemed to illuminate her skin. Then he heard a movement from a tree behind her.
He had to squint his eyes to focus on the movement of the tree, and gasped in shock when he saw a figure come out from behind it. It was Light. He looked at his own hand, seeing that it was bone, yet again, then stared at he woman on the bench. She didn't notice Light creeping up behind her, slowly stalking his prey.
Light tried to scream for the woman. Nothing but breath came out. When he tried to run and save her, he saw that he had no legs. He watched in terror as he walked up to the woman, a malicious glint in his eyes. She just sat there!
Light took her head in his hands and clamped his teeth onto her throat. She writhed in pain, but no sounds escaped her mouth. Her body became pale and wrinkled; ugly and disgusting.
Light slowly and sensuously lapped at the remaining blood sliding down her skin. Light felt like crying. He didn't want this! Then he turned to himself and spoke.
"Fall."
Light burst out of his blackened state with a gasp and trembling with fear. He saw Ryuuzaki kneeling beside him staring at him in wonder. Light was breathing very hard. The pain was gone, but something was extremely different.
"Feel your canines, Raito-kun." Light looked at Ryuuzaki in an angered confusion. He slid his finger inside of his mouth, brushing over his front teeth, then to his can-
"What the?" Light poked his finger into his canine. He felt it again and accidentally stabbed his finger on his tooth. He pulled his finger out and looked at it. "No blood," he murmured to himself, looking at the stab wound.
He got up and ran into the bathroom, pushing his lip up to reveal his teeth. He gazed intently at his reflection, hardly believing what he could see. Ryuuzaki was slouched in the doorway, leaning on the frame.
"Congratulations, Raito-kun. You now have fangs!" Light just looked at him in bewilderment. "I think this calls for a celebration." He walked into Light's kitchen. Light was sure he had gone crazy.
He walked out of the bathroom and slouched on the couch. Ryuuzaki brought out two wine gasses full of a thick red liquid and sat next to Light.
"To Raito-kun's new fangs!" He raised his glass, smiling, and toasted with Light. Light just smiled at the awkwardness of this person. He watched as Ryuuzaki took a sip and licked his lips. Light did the same.
"Did you have to do the same thing for your fangs, Ryuuzaki?" Light was twirling the blood around in his glass.
"Indeed," was the only reply Light received. He downed the rest of his blood, feeling rather rejuvenated, and leaned back onto the couch. He guessed that he had no choice but to believe his fate after all. He didn't even notice Ryuuzaki staring at him.
"Raito-kun?" Light just looked at him with a raised eyebrow. Before Ryuuzaki could finish Light's cell phone started ringing.
"This is my life; it's not what it was before. All these feelings I've shared. And these are my dreams that I've never lived before. Somebody shake me 'cause I, I must be sleeping." Light took the phone out of his pocket and read the I.D. It was his father.
"This is Raito."
"Raito? This is your father. I think you should get don to the police station right away. We have some new information on the whereabouts of the suspect."
"Hai, I'll be right there." Light clicked his phone closed and looked at Ryuuzaki. He had already whipped out his laptop.
"I have to go to work Ryuuzaki." He nodded at Light and put his laptop away. As Light was heading towards the door, Ryuuzaki ran over to him and grabbed his arm. In one swift motion, he flung Light around and made it so that he delicately landed in the hugging position with Ryuuzaki.
"What the hell?!" Light was too confused to understand what had just happened. He noticed Ryuuzaki peering down at him with a strange look in his eyes.
"Close your eyes, Raito-kun." Light blushed as Ryuuzaki practically purred into his ear. He had his hands on Ryuuzaki's chest, trying to push him back, while Ryuuzaki's arms rested around Light's waist and one on the back of Light's head. "I would suggest that Raito-kun close his eyes." Through Light's struggle, he gave up. He let his lids fall shut while a rosy tint fell upon his face. He could feel Ryuuzaki's breath brush on his cheeks, the move upwards towards his eyes. Light was glad his eyes were closed so he couldn't see the expression on Ryuuzaki's morbid face.
He felt a delicate kiss dust his left eye, then right, then he was let go. Light opened his eyes as Ryuuzaki just stood there.
"W-what was that?" Light was just a confused and embarrassed mess. He felt that his face was very hot.
"Another power for Raito-kun. He can now hypnotize people with his eyes." Light wasn't exactly sure what that meant, but he just went with it. How could be surprised at this behavior?
He watched as Ryuuzaki morphed through the walls. Light figured he'd be secretly following him there. He walked out of the door and locked it behind him.
Honey-brown eyes looked to the sky. It looked like rain.
What a weird week.
