I screamed at the whip hitting my bleeding right side for the..I don't know how many times I've been hit by it..nor do I have any idea how long I've been asleep.
"Yes, scream! Tell onii-chan how much it hurts!"
I calmed down my screaming, then grinned and threw my head back, laughing crazily.
(I've only watched three episodes of Saga of Tanya the Evil...and she got me like this already.. XD)
"You 6vck;ng coward!"
"What the hell did you just call me?!"
I looked back at him seriously, "You heard me, coward. You dare attack me at my weakest? That just tells me you're a 6;+c#."
He approached me and kicked me in my stomach, making cough up blood...but I ended up chuckling, too.
I looked up at him a twisted smile, "Ohh...is the coward offended?"
Shin was about to slap me until I gasped, looking behind him.
He turned around, which made me laugh again.
"Psyche, 6;+c#~!"
~? Ends~
I woke up giggling to myself.
"Hey, are you okay?" I heard Kou ask me.
"Why wouldn't I be~? I'm perfectly fine, Kou-kun~," I said with a sickening sweet smile.
He stopped in his foot tracks, "I think one of your wounds are opening back up because I've smelt blood spilling from you the past twenty minutes..I need to get you there faster..."
Rain was pouring from the sky...I'm surprised he could smell the blood over the rain's...
I tilted my head, then smiled. "My "home" is where you wish to go? Are you sure?"
"Where else am I supposed to take you? To a human doctor?" he questioned sarcastically.
"I can get us in the blink-of-an-eye~," I sounded out the last words and snapped my right hand's fingers.
Within a few seconds...
We're right before the mansion's doors.
Kou's jaw dropped as he looked between me and the doors.
"Set me down and leave, I don't want my brothers catching you here with me; they might get the wrong idea..." I told the still shocked Kou.
"Are...are you..su-...? Never mind, you're right. I'll make up a story about you escaping somehow," he said before disappearing.
I turned back to the doors and nearly fell, realizing my weight was too heavy for me to stand..but I looked to be 185 pounds, no longer 205...
Steadying myself on the doors, I inhaled and I push the doors open, resulting in me falling to the floor.
Laying there for a few seconds, I used my arms and knees to crawl inside.
Doing that was a mistake because I ripped something open on my right side and left calf, making a pool of blood around me quickly.
A lengthy scream mixed with a bit of laughter escaped my lips.
"Damn it! It hurts so bad, it's 6vck;ng funny! Ahahahahahaaa! *Sighs shakily* The pain feels like morphine, haha...I feel so damn high, hehehe~! I'm on cloud 9~.."
"Sister?"
Since I was on my back, I tilted my head back to see my dearest fourth youngest brother, Kanato, slowly descending down the stairs.
I grinned, "Good evening, little brother~. Oh, how your Big Sister has missed you so much~," I mused, then I turned on my stomach and crawled towards him, painting the pool of blood on the floor roughly.
He took a step back, "...Reiji."
"I'll handle her," Reiji spoke, walking pass him, "How did you get here?" he questioned.
I set my chin on my forearms, pouting. "No greeting or "welcome back"? Damn, the disrespect...How indeed? How the hell would I know? These new powers is something I can't explain, younger brother~."
His eyes narrowed, "I would say that...but what's so welcoming about the state you're in?"
I leered at him, "...Help me, Reiji."
"Are you finally happy with me being on time, ya tea set ota―...what in the hell?"
My favorite brother had turned the corner, directing his statement at Reiji until he saw me..to which I smiled sadly at him.
"Ayato, your brother's being mean. Please, help your older sister; I'm in so much pain, please..." I feigned innocence, letting tears slide down my cheeks.
I almost caught him, but Reiji put his left arm in front of him.
He looked to him angrily, "What the hell?! We have to help her! She's our sister!"
"That thing down there is not our sister; it's a monster that's been unleashed."
I giggled, "Damn you, Reiji~. I almost had him~. Hm...oh? So now I'm a monster? You guys are really the monsters after all the $#;+ I had to go through to keep you protected and alive, causing me unnecessary trouble."
"You're wrong! Big Sis would never say something like that!" Kanato yelled at me.
I slowly smiled and tilted my head to the right, "Where's your evidence?"
Suddenly, my body stood up, the pain was actually an aid.
I clapped my hands and made a closed eyed smile. "Let's play a game of catching bats~. Sounds familiar~? I'm the catcher, all six our the bats~."
Putting my sharp nails on the right rail of the staircase, I took slow steps and scratched the rail as I ascended.
Before I could take step on the fifth step, I was tackled from behind and fell to the floor with that person on top of me.
Struggling to overthrow that person from me, I realized it was my youngest brother.
"Shu, hurry and do what the hell you have to do!" Subaru shouted.
Looking across the floor, I saw Shu casting some type of spell; I knew it, he was going to restrain me.
I looked to my left, then bit into Subaru's left wrist, pulling a chunk of meat from it.
Thoroughly, I swallowed the flesh, tasted the blood, then sighed dreamily.
"You taste good, Subaru~," I said before I felt myself be restrained to the floor by a red pentagram and burning iron chains on my wrists above my head.
He got off me and and applied pressure to his bleeding wrist, "Tch, shut the hell up."
"Would talking to you like this be of any use?" Reiji questioned.
"Of course not! I'm physically and mentally "ill" as you sane people would say. Only one vampire would understand me in this state, but unfortunately..." I simpered at Subaru, licking my lips. "She's not here."
Subaru began to get closer, but a hand on his left shoulder held him back; it was Laito.
"None of you be deceived by her, she wants to stir us up," he said to them.
I kept staring at Laito, "Je t'aime, Laito. S'il tu plaît, moi libre, et tu peux avoir moi~."
("I love you, Laito. Please, free me, and you can have me~.")
His eyes widened, and he glanced to his brothers, then back at me.
"I won't deny it's a tempting offer~, mais non...not until you recover at least," he slightly smirked and smiled at the same time.
("...but no...")
"I don't trust this. The hell did she say to you?" Ayato asked him.
"I don't want to share that information"..is what I want to say, but she tried to seduce me; I'm not that much of a pushover."
Ayato looked at me and I smirked, "Problem?"
"Yeah, big one."
"And I hope it is~," I mused, then threw my head back, laughed psychotically.
(...Jared Leto's Joker may have also gotten in my head, hehe...he..ugh..)
I stopped laughing when I coughed up some blood.
"How unfair, you had this body for many, many years and I can't have it for at least one day. You're crueler than Cordelia...Don't compare you to her? How can I not? You opposed and tolerated the 6;+c# for a long time...What's this? Planned to kill her because the triplets asked you to? Aw~, how sweet~..now, tell me you didn't take any satisfaction in that...That's what I thought," I had a conversation with Miyami.
I moved my eyes around me, seeing them stare at me strangely.
"*Chuckle* She was speaking to m-...Oh? There are a few more than just her?...I should kill everybody and escape with my beloved to the underworld, huh?...Well, I'd risk getting killed by "them", if that's also one of their intentions...And that other guy...Do it anyway?...To hell with that. I've tasted freedom for a quarter of this day and I am not doing that or the other thing...Yeah, what about him?...Don't know if I..." I glanced to Ayato, "..should do that. She'd be madder than a German Sheppard chasin' a mail man...You make a compelling argument...Very well..."
I closed my eyes, ending up falling asleep.
-Ayato's P.O.V-
"...I just witnessed a whole conversation with herself..." Shu mumbled.
"She's more insane than I thought," Hysteric said, approaching her.
"I don't know if it's safe to get near her right now. She could just be pretending," Laito told him. He glanced at Subaru, "Don't want her taking a chunk out of you."
"Tch, shut it," Subaru told him as his wound had healed.
"I'll move her body to the living area..." Shu said, approaching her as well.
He undid the spell and picked up her body, putting her body over his right shoulder.
"Don't swing her around like a sack of potatoes; I have to treat her wounds," Tableware-otaku snapped at him.
Shu sighed, "If she was that hurt, she wouldn't have gotten all the way here...unless someone helped her."
Shu walked the living area anyway with me following directly behind him while Tableware-otaku went to go get his medical tools, I guess.
He set her down on the green couch
"So...what do we do when she wakes up?" I asked them.
"She was staring at you specifically, so that could mean anything...and you promised her something?" Reiji questioned, briefly glancing at me, before attending on Miyami's wounds.
I leaned against the wall behind me, staring at her 'peaceful' face, "I rather not say."
"And why is that? Is it something you should be ashamed of? For your sake, I hope not," Reiji...threatened.
"Did you just threaten me? We can go there if you want. I'm just saying it's not my place of saying what we promised; Miyami is the one who requested it."
"So we ask her when she wakes up..." Shu spoke.
"If it's even her..." Laito included.
"It seems she has Borderline Personality Disorder: a mental disorder characterized by unstable moods, behavior, and relationships," Reiji informed.
"Or maybe she's just border line insane...If this is the result of living with us and around us all these years, I wouldn't be surprised," Subaru said, leaning against the wall, a few feet away from me.
"Hell, me neither," I agreed with him.
"Ayato, you told us you saw her at the Mukami mansion and attempted to break in...that's a reason for punishment, but I'll let this slide since they did take someone that doesn't belong to them. They probably put her elsewhere afterwards...and seeing the state she's in, I'm assuming she played the "maiden in distress" role to deceive one of the brothers and escape," Reiji summed the events up and her bandages.
"That's our clever sister~," Laito praised her.
"There should be more..." Hysteric studied Miyami up close. "Narcolepsy: a chronic sleep disorder that causes overwhelming daytime drowsiness and falling asleep any time during the day; the darkness under her eyes prove it, and she has nightmare disorder: a sleep where an individual has frequent nightmares, which often portray the individual in a situation that jeopardizes their life or personal safety, usually occur during the REM―rapid eye movement―stages of sleep. Her eyes have wrinkles at the ends," Hysteric explained.
"How would you know that just by-"
Hysteric glared at Laito, "I suffer from this $#;+. How would I not know the symptoms and side effects?"
"Forget I even asked," he said with a slight chuckle.
Unexpectedly, Miyami began screaming and moving rapidly on the couch.
Shu and Hysteric held her down by her arms.
"MAKE IT STOOOOP! AAAAGGGGGHHHHHHH!"
Her screaming pierced all of our ears, it was too high pitched to the point our ears would bleed.
The chandelier's light gave out and the house began to shake, making me and Subaru stumble forward.
"What kind of demonic-" Before I could say anymore, everything stopped.
*Silence*
The chandelier's light glitched back on.
Hysteric and Shu were still holding down-...
"Where the hell did she go?" I asked them.
-Miyami's P.O.V-
I snaked my arms around his shoulders.
"Right here," I spoke in a raspy tone.
Dodging a punch to the face, I stepped around Ayato and went to go sit down on the sofa.
"Are you okay, Big Sis?" Hysteric asked her, approaching her.
"...I feel...weak, my body hurts..I'm famished and dehydrated...yet I taste something foreign in my mouth...?"
"It's not like you took a bite of Subaru's wrist or anything, so don't worry about it," Laito said..sarcastically.
To make sure he was being sarcastic, I turned my head and studied my youngest bro―cousin.
I noticed that his left wrist was in the process of healing.
Gagging a little, I slapped my right hand over my lips and got up. Jumping the dark couch in the middle, I ran to the window on the left side of the fire place, pushed the window open, leaned over the sill, and let out the regurgitated contents in my stomach...I noticed some shredded skin, too.
"Looks like Subaru doesn't taste so good~," Laito mused with more sarcasm.
"Shut the hell up, Pervert," Subaru snapped at him.
Letting out the last contents, I slowly leaned up, taking steady breaths...
"It's not the fact..that I'm disgusted by the bitter sweet taste...it's the fact that I'm disgusted by doing such a thing."
Biting my right hand and drinking some of my blood, I turned around, leaning against the sill.
"So..how many days have I been gone?"
"A month and a few days," Reiji spoke. He teleport in front of me and handed a carton of cranberry juice. "It'll keep your blood regulated, and stop drinking from yourself, you'll make yourself even more weak. If you want blood, you ask either of us."
I retracted my fangs from my hand as I raised my left eyebrow. "Since when did you become the boss of me?"
"Since you became the Sacrificial Bride," he replied.
I tapped my left finger against the sill behind me, thinking of a comeback, but I sighed in defeat.
I grabbed the cart and glanced away to the left, "I forgot about that...and I'm not drinking any one's blood."
Kanato approached me and held out his right hand, giving me wrapped up candies. I grabbed them and began to unwrap one, then eat it.
"Miya-chan, don't you think it's unfair that you only bit Subaru? That's being selfish~," Laito spoke.
"How's that-...how...? I'll just remain confused on that question, and I wasn't conscious when I did that!"
"The hell you weren't!" Subaru yelled.
"Remember, Subaru, she has BPD," Reiji reminded him.
"Reiji, you calling me insane? Well...besides the unexpected usual, but still! How do I have Borderline Personality Disorder?"
"It's obvious you were not yourself when you did that to him; you have another person inside of you, and I believe you were going to either harm or kill us all. This is an assumption for now, though I think another part of you made a deal with the..mentally ill one. "
I took slow steps away from him, giggling a little in fright, "You're calling me crazy...no, you're calling me insane, aren't you? A lunatic is what you're imply-...lunatic...luna...! What month is it?!" I asked frantically.
(Funny how I referenced that word to the game...*smirk* hint, hint...)
"January 18th, why?" Subaru answered and asked.
Searching my upper body, I felt something in my left jean jacket's pocket and unzipped it, pulling out my phone and keys.
Unlocking it, I clicked on a certain app...
"Okay, Google...when is the Blood Red Moon?" I asked, waiting for it to catch my voice and answer.
"Blood Red wha-"
"Shh!" I shushed Ayato.
"The Blood Red Moon is January 20th at 12 AM based on your location, Miya."
"Ohhhh, $#;+...oh, $#;+, $#;+, $#;+, $#;-"
"Watch your language," Reiji told me.
"How can I when-..." I looked to my shaking hands... "I need power and strength." I slowly turned to the window, putting my right thumb to my lips, "Should I..." I grinned, "..go feed on some humans?"
"Nope, nope, nope. You're not doing that, Miya-chan," Laito told me, stepping in front of me.
I blinked, "...Why not? I'm not human..nor am I bound to Tougo's rules. I can go on a binge right now if I really wanted to..and no one could stop me because I..I am really thirsty!" He slightly recoiled, I sighed. "However...I will control myself..it's best I go ravage on the night of the Red Blood Moon. I need to go cook something human, I'm hungry," I said in a bored tone and passed him by, walking out the living area.
-Reiji's P.O.V-
"How the hell do you suggest we deal with that?!" Ayato yelled. "I understand the desire for blood, no disrespect, but she's willing to go hunting in daylight! That's not the full Miyami we all know, and we know it!"
"...You have a point. We have to keep her in this manor until the Blood Red Moon..also known as the Lunar Eclipse. I knew it was in a few days, but I was hoping she wouldn't remember," I spoke my thoughts on the matter.
"We should all contribute," the Deadbeat said.
I glanced to him, narrowing my eyes, "...What do you suggest..."
-Miyami's P.O.V-
I don't know what was wrong with me...
Normally, this is not how I eat nor how I eat cut up chicken...
It was medium rare or well done and with a fork...
But my hands are bloody and I am using all of my fingers...
Taking large bites out of the chicken, I ravaged it like a savage, getting my mouth bloody.
Licking the bone clean, I got up and teleport to the kitchen, taking another bag of chicken out and teleport back to my seat in the dining room.
Ripping it open, I poured all of them on the decorative plate, then began to ravage those up...unknowingly consuming the bones since I was mixed up in my gluttony.
"Damn, this is so good...but..why am I so hungry? Is it not only because I'm just hungry?...Who cares? As long as I'm fed!"
Ripping a wing apart, I held up the half in my left hand over my mouth, letting the blood drop on my stuck out tongue.
"...Who knew you were such an eater despite your love for human food," I heard Subaru say.
I dropped the half in my other hand and set the one above me back on the plate, but I kept staring up at the ceiling, licking my lips and around them...
"Sister?"
"..."
"Big Sis?"
"..."
"Sis, we're-"
"I wish it was raining blood..."
*Silence*
I smiled and looked back at them, putting my hands on my cheeks and leaning on the table, "Now, what is it~?"
They said nothing, but something slid against the table towards me. Studying it, it was a black wine glass...? I looked to them for an explanation.
"It's a treat," Shu told me.
Moving my gaze back to the wine glass, I picked it up and pulled the cork off of it. Moving the bottle in circular motions to listen to the liquid, I could tell it was..thick. I waft the scent of the bottle to my nose...
I put the bottle down on the table. "Mm-mm, nope. I refuse to drink this."
Unexpectedly, Laito started to chuckle.
Reiji sighed, "Laito...you are best at this..."
I felt a presence behind, but before I could turn around, hands covered my eyes.
"Are you sure, Miyami? This is a once in a few life time offers."
"I am sure. I take no pleasure in drinking my kin's blood altogether in a wine bo-"
"Doesn't the imagination of the rhythm of the blood in your veins make you feel excited~? It would be tempting to taste six bloods mixed together, no? Come on, imagine it~, get lost in the taste~," he quietly whispered in my right ear.
A shaky exhale left my lips as I shivered...
"Miya-chan, if you drink that bottle of blood, I promise to give you my blood whenever you want, especially when you beg for it, baby~. In return, I want your heart, your soul~, and most definitely your bodacious body that's carrying red..hot..sweet..blood just for Playboy~."
I felt my cheeks warm up..along with my lower regions. It's as if Laito had me in a world where there's just us...I felt like I was drugged up...
"How about it, sweet cheeks~? Gonna choke on that wine bottle..or are you gonna choke on Playboy's~?"
"Aah~!"
I removed his hands from my face and planted it on the edge of the table, blushing as red as a cherry tomato.
'D-did I just moan?! Oh, my God! This is so embarrassing! Drink the damn blood already! I don't want that guy violating my ears anymore! That may be true, but..he sounded so sexy~, I wanna hear him call me baby again~...Matter of fact, I'll call him Big Red~! N-no..I have to keep myself together, I'm between a pervert and a hard place...think, Miyami!'
Moving my right hand on top of the table, I felt it out for the wine bottle...when I did, I grabbed the straw I was using to sip my glass of water earlier due to wanting to keep the taste of blood in my mouth more, and I put it in the bottle. Picking it up, I moved it under the table, put my lips on it, and started sipping.
"What the hell did you say to her to make her moan and drink like that?!" Ayato yelled in anger.
"Hahaha~...don't worry about what I said to her, just know she's motivated to drink what we had to offer," Laito spoke innocently.
I lifted my head on my left arm enough to glance at Laito. "...Incubus," I mumbled, then sunk my head back down, hearing him chuckle.
Sipping the...actually addictive and delicious blood now that I concentrated on the flavor, I shivered at the thought of the blood being combined from all my brothers.
'To think they would go this extent for me..who they still consider a sister...How sweet of them to feed me...but I want mo―no, this is enough..for now...'
Leaning upwards, I exhaled, licking a drop of blood that slid down the right side of my lips.
"So...how is it?" Kanato asked me, hugging Teddy tightly.
I held up my left index finger, sipping more of the blood through my straw for about 12 seconds...
"Hm..." I slowly smiled, revealing my fangs in the process. "I know..it's logical to feel intoxicated on an addicting liquid...but I feel like I'm high from this.."
"What would you know about feeling intoxicated or high?" Reiji asked.
"Trust me, that brownie was a pure accident, but..liquor and MJ are two substances I did on purpose and will never try again..heh heh heh~," I chuckled, taking the straw out the bottle and taking a swig of the blood.
"MJ?" Ayato questioned.
"~I'm in love with Mary Jane.
~She's my main thing.
~She makes me feel alright.
~She makes my heart sing.
~And when I'm feeling low,
~She comes as no surprise.
~Turns me on with her love.
~Takes me to paradise.
~Do you love me Mary Jane?~" I continued singing like a drunkard.
(Mary Jane by Rick James)
"She means marijuana," I heard Laito whisper to Ayato.
"How long have you been taking drinking liquor and smoking?" Reiji questioned, seeming disgusted by the fact I actually tried it.
I stopped singing, took another swig, exhaling again. "Don't worry, Rei-kun. I was in my dorm with a friend when I did it. She watched over me and made sure I didn't do anything stupid-*hic* oh, damn..I've only did both that one time. Ever since, I haven't abused any drugs or alcohol...Can you blame me for being upset over my Mother's death?
After saying that, silence entered the room.
I took the chance to take another swig of the―now empty bottle of blood―I groaned aloud.
Looking at Shu, who felt my gaze on him and opened his right eye, I stood while he raised his right eyebrow slightly in question.
Turning his chair towards me without a problem, I placed both of my thighs on each side of his and slid my hands on his shoulder, next leaning to the right side of his neck.
"~I have a heart, I swear I do,
~But just not baby when it comes to you.
~I get so hungry when you say you love me-"
"Wha-" I cut him off.
"Hush! if you know what's good for you.
~I think you're hot, I think you're cool.
~You're the kinda guy I'd stalk in school,
~But now that I've awakened, you're gonna get taken!
~Now I'm gonna eat you, fool~!"
(Cannibal by Ke$ha. I substituted "I''m famous, you're up my anus" with "I've awakened, you're gonna get taken".)
Before I could take a bite, I felt myself get dizzy and I―again―fainted on his shoulder.
-Shu's P.O.V-
I sat there...stiff...staring at my unconscious sister, trying to contemplate what she was..singing...?
"...Shu, get her-" I cut Reiji off.
"I am not moving. Get her off of me."
Subaru was the first to teleport near me and pick up Miyami in his arms.
"It's best she's put in her quarters so she can properly rest, Subaru," Reiji said to him.
Subaru was gone in the blink of an eye and I made sure I relax slowly.
"Well, that backfired," Ayato mumbled.
"If we feed her blood, she'll only crave more. If we don't, she'll-"
"Die..Once you die, that's end of it..for us at least," Kanato spoke softly.
(I'll end the chapter here. I keep thinking and saying to myself "end the book already [not applied to this one], but every time I always try to, either school hits me or laziness kicks in after the week because I'm so damn tired. Sorry I can't update at least once a week, reader-chan/kun; unfortunately, I have a life. Ugh..too much effort...I forgot to mention..if you want to see what Miyami's hair and eye colors look like, look up "Nakaba Dawn of the Arcana Vol 1".)
