-Flashback-
"What's wrong?" I asked as I sat next to him.
"...You're leaving me and the others in a couple days..." he mumbled.
I made the warmest smile I could, "That is true. I may not be here taking care of all six of you, but I'll be supporting you all from a distance."
He lifted his head up and looked at me with confusion written on his face.
"How?"
I put my left index finger to my lips and winked at him, "It's a secret."
Silence ensued after he let out a sigh.
Staring up at the blue moon in serenity, I recalled when Subaru called my irises a blue-green Plumeria.
'I don't find anything captivating about my eyes. Compared to Laito's, he puts my seduction techniques to shame. Compared to Shu's, he looks more promising than I..despite his slowly growing lazy nature.'
"Thinking about the others than me?" I heard Ayato next to my left ear.
Leaning back quickly, I stared at him, flustered and embarrassed.
"A-Ayato! You can't ju-just-"
He crawled over me, making me lay my back down on the roof. I stared up at him in surprise.
"A-Ayato?" I questioned as he got closer to my face.
"You're inconsiderate sometimes, ya know that?" he asked in a way..I didn't know was or wasn't rhetorical, or true.
"I...well, I'm not perfect. I just do the best I can," I stood my ground, but uneasily glancing away from him.
His lips settled on my left cheek, then slid to my lips; however, he didn't apply any pressure, like a kiss should be.
"I won't...force you to do something you don't..know anything about..."
Offended, I narrowed my eyes at him and slightly leaned back.
"What do you mean? I know about a kiss! I..don't really know how to...but I know when a moment is right!"
"That's the point. This isn't the right moment."
Unexpectedly, he leaned down to give a quick peck on the right side of my neck, then leaned up off me.
"Wait..what do you mean?"
He stared at me before grabbing me by the collar of my white, button-up shirt, "Sis, are you implying that you're ready to indulge with me in something you consider sinful?"
"..." I could only stare at him in bewilderment, unable to respond.
"That's what I thought," he said and let go of me, then stood up. He turned his back on me. "Hopefully, when you come back from the human world, you'll understand what I mean..."
"..."
"...and that I'll be the one to love you properly."
Before I could say anything, he already left.
I looked down at my lap, "He...he was just jesting, right? What would..Ayato know about true romantic love? I never...I never gave that to him, only sibling love..and he especially wasn't taught it by Cordelia nor Father..."
Wrapping my hands around my knees and sinking my head in my lap, I let small laughter leave my lips.
"He's young..he doesn't know what he's talking about..."
-Flashback Ends-
"Look at that...she disregarded you. She didn't take you seriously. She thought you only knew one kind of love. Doesn't that make you feel...hurt?"
He didn't respond.
Ayato sat on the throne and I took it upon myself to sit on his lap.
His expression isn't what I expected: Sullen.
"But..I understood, Ayato. I am that part of her that took you seriously? You know why? Because she wanted, and still wants, romantic love. Remember her request back at the Beach House? That was me asking that, but she kept a grip on me. Ayato, I'm the part of Miyami that truly loves you. So can we..."
I placed my legs on each side of his thighs, shifting closer towards him.
I entangled my fingers in his hair and the other hand around the nape of his neck.
"..fulfill your promise?" I whispered in his right ear.
Moving my lips from the shell of his ear to his neck, I gave a couple kitten licks. I scrape my fangs up and down gently across his flesh.
Feeling fingers entangle in my hair, I smiled, loving that he's submitting to me.
'Males, human or vampire...always get tangled in a female's web somehow~.'
Grunting as my head got pulled back by my hair, I opened my left eye.
Ayato looked... I can't explain it...
"You think just because you're in her body, you can decide what she and I want. The Miyami I know wouldn't do such a thing,"
Involuntarily letting out a small squeak.
Looking down at where my heart is, the knife I stabbed him with earlier is...
-Ayato's P.O.V-
She pushed herself away from me, falling from my lap and rolling down the steps.
I stood up, "Well...isn't this a familiar sight?" I asked her.
Her body struggled to get up, but she kept crawling back as fast as she could while keeping an eye on me as I walked down.
"Why aren't you effected by the drug?!"
"I don't believe "love potions" can effect the strong-willed. I would be considered weak if I just let you do whatever you want. Besides..." I licked the blood that splattered on my lips. "Ore-sama is not one to be bested easily."
She grunted from, what I think is, my besting her and the knife.
I stepped off the last step, "Seeing you like this..almost makes me want to vomit. You look just like that 6;+c#, crawling and scrambling helplessly."
"You.. *Chuckle* You honestly think this can kill me? Just because it's anti-vampire weapon?"
"Nah, I'm just waitin' for the fight inside to be over with. Oi! Miyami! Ore-sama demands you beat her a$$ to a bloody pulp!"
Her body trembled violently as she threw her head back, screaming as blood splashed out of her.
'That...did not look...what it was supposed to look like,' I thought to myself, shivering a little.
A hand stuck out of her stomach, which surprised the hell out of me, I took a few steps back, not wanting to get..drenched in that disaster.
Another hand stuck out and placed both on each side of her body, whatever it is, it's pulling itself up.
I cringed, 'This is like watching someone give birth, but there's more blood than usual. Ugh...'
A scream was let out from the ascending being.
"AAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!"
My eyes widened because I recognized those blood covered blue-green eyes.
She was coughing, wheezing, choking...
-Miyami's P.O.V-
"WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE, HUH?! TRYING TO TAKE OVER MY BODY AND SEDUCE MY BROTHER?! I TOLD YOU, "I AM NOT CORDELIA", AND I NEVER WILL BE. I AM IN CONTROL!"
I pulled the rest of her body out of my other body.
Catching my breath, I grabbed the blood covered knife and kept stabbing my now slowly decomposing body.
Relentlessly stabbing it through the heart, I hadn't realized I was blinded by rage and blood lust.
Stabbing one last time, I left the knife inside and I began to tear into the stomach, visciously eating the intestines, liver, pancreas, kidneys.
A burst of blood covered my already tainted face, making me stop...
I fell back on my hind legs, trying to catch my breath after the frenzy I just went through.
"...I would say..*inhale*.."Go to hell", but..*huff* we're already here," I said in a slight joking tone, then I coughed up some blood.
"Miyami, you okay?"
Turning my head back at Ayato, I nodded.
"I know..I don't look—*cough*—mn, look fine..nor sound like it..but I am."
"Good. Because I need you to explain what the hell did I just see."
"Agreed."
Looking back to see the rest of my...my brothers, I looked back down at the decomposed body.
The stench was horrible...
"You can say..*cough*..the fake me was about to swallow the real me. Ahem..I don't want to ex-...explain what I went through in there."
Staring at my blood stained body, I moved my hands in front of my vision before giving my right hand's fingers a long lick.
"Damn..I never knew I tasted this good," I complimented myself, continuing to lick.
Laito chuckled, receiving a glare from Reiji.
"...With all this blood on me, I feel like Stephen King's Carrie character..but this is no prom; a simple blood fest."
After a good dosage of the lovely drug, I shakily stood up..only to fall backwards.
"Oi! Careful!" Ayato shouted at me.
"I'll be fine," I said as I leaned up and he steadied me on my feet.
Slowly, in order not to trip or fall, I walked over to the decomposed, and still bleeding, body.
Bending down, I grabbed the knife and shook as much as blood off as I could.
"Subaru. You can have this back," I said, outstretching my left hand. "Kanato. Help me burn this."
Within less than five seconds, Kanato was hugging me, which startled me.
"St-stop it! You'll get blood all over-"
"I thought...you left me," he sobbed.
Staring down at him cuddled into my chest, a small smile slipped on my lips.
I wrapped my arms around him, no longer feeling the knife in my hand, indicating Subaru took it back.
"I'm okay, Kanato," I whispered in his hair, resting my face partially on top of his head.
The body suddenly went up into purple flames, and Kanato's grip on me tightened a little more.
With the purple, I added blue.
"I don't think now is the time to enjoy the moment. Our cousins may know about the barrier breaking," Laito spoke.
I lifted my face from Kanato's head, "Ah. I almost forgotten. The barrier must've broken when Ayato stabbed me."
"Stab—what?!" Subaru yelled, then turned to Ayato.
I grabbed Subaru's arm with my left hand, "No need to get riled up. I am fine..I kinda planned for this to happen."
"Big Sis, you're-"
"GET THE HELL AWAY FROM MY SISTER!"
I pushed Kanato away from me as fast as I could...
But in the process...I lost something.
The blood poured out my right limb as the arm itself hit the carpeted floor.
*Silence*
Bending down, I picked it up with my left hand and stared.
"I would be vexed..." I began as I placed my right arm near my torn elbow. "..if I didn't know I could regenerate from an attack as powerful as that, Shin."
"A-Amya-"
With the movement of my right hand, as if throwing a piece of trash away behind me, so did his body go flinging to the opposite wall.
"I'm puzzled," I spoke as I observed my arm, "Father can regenerate, too. That's not a good thing..."
I looked back at Shin, "..*smirk* for him at least."
"I'm beginning to wonder if you're even the real Miyami," Reiji said, on my left side.
"I am. I just accepted that my real family, as much as I hate to say this on his part, is Tougo Sakamaki, Lucille Luminitsa, and my six younger brothers: Shu, Reiji, Ayato, Kanato, Laito, and Subaru."
Taking Reiji's glasses, I placed them on my face.
"Why?" he questioned.
"Because I want to look professional while I talk to him," I gave a, well-known, invalid reason.
Reiji shook his head and sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose with with right forefinger and thumb.
"Now, Shin, dear..*sigh* brother of mine, where is Carla?"
Shin grinned at me, "He's already here."
As if behind a invisible spell, Carla appeared, sitting on the throne with a very displeased look.
"Amaya."
"Oh, well, there's big brother...*cringe* It's gonna take some time to get used to saying that."
"What," he demanded.
"I have decided that I'm not going kill both of you. As much as I loved my Mother, taking revenge..won't bring her back. It's a waste of my time, her peace time, and I'm pretty sure my brothers time."
"Yeah," Ayato, Laito, and Kanato spoke simultaneously.
"Hah, triplets," I huffed as I lightly tapped my finger against my head and off while rolling my eyes.
"Is this some kind of deceit?"
"Now, I'd never break a promise."
Ayato scoffed.
I turned to him, "Oi! The human world just overtook my mind, and it was your promise after all! Besides...I did learn something about that subject," I said with a pout, then turned back to Carla, adjusting the glasses. "Anyway... You look like the type to believe in equivalent exchange. How about a proposal?"
"Granted."
"You both want me, not only because I belong here, but because I am the cure to the Endzeit disease. Understandable. However, my...a$$hole of a Father doesn't want the infected getting into the world and start effecting humans; the reason why the Demon World has been sealed by him. I will let you have my blood—BUT..."
"Your condition...?"
"I want you to call off trying to kill my brothers. If that were to happen, I'd surely be held responsible by Father and killed."
"Sis, are you seri-"
I cut off Ayato by holding my right hand up.
"..." Carla's eyes narrowed at my serious ones.
"Not enough persuasion? Then..." I untied the white kimono, and let the cloth fall to my shoulders. "I'd even offer my body. I am a..unique being. Impregnate me, experiment on me, I don't care. I don't think I can die anyway, so saturate your sadistic needs."
His heavy gaze lightened slightly.
"I see. Then...!"
A small smile appeared on my lips.
"What is the matter?"
He stood from the throne, glaring at me.
"I'll agree only to the first offer."
I blinked, "Huh?"
"Wait! Brother! Are you in your right mind?! She literally just offered!" Shin protested.
I placed my hands on my hips and leaned forward, "Are you implying I'm not pretty enough?! Fine, then! Don't waste my time," I said, turning away with crossed arms.
"When should I expect-"
I nod my head down to the pool of blood on the carpet. "I should make you bow down to me and lick the blood off the carpet, but..I won't let my pathos effect my logos." I narrowed my eyes, "When do you want it?"
"Don't toy with me."
"I am not. My brothers would be highly...unpleased if they saw such a thing. I don't need all 6 turning savage. Drinking blood is like returning love."
*Silence*
"Whenever you're ready," he offered.
I smiled, "Good. That is no time soon because you got some guy, who claims to be my Father's illegitimate son, after me. This is a good opportunity to help me in any way you and Shin can. Please...Onii-chan~?"
Laito groaned and I heard him mutter, "She begged..and called him that. Damn, I wish I was her big brother."
"...Very well then. Shin."
Shin huffed, rubbing the back of his head with his hand, looking away from me. "Fine, fine! It's a promise..damn nuisa-"
Carla used his magic to force Shin's body back into the indented part ot the wall behind the throne.
I smiled, "Brothers? What do you think of this agreement?"
"As long as they don't try any funny stuff, I don't care," Ayato replied.
"I agree with him, dear sister~," Laito mused in amusement.
"Hmm," Kanato hummed in agreement.
"Tch, fine," Subaru snapped.
"I don't really care as long as as nothing happens to you altogether," Shuu responded tiredly.
"For once in a few rare times, we all agree on something," Reiji answered.
"There you have it, Carla. A deal's a deal."
~Tiny Time Skip~
We exit the castle.
"All's well that ends well"...or so they say," I mused, then my voice turned serious.
"What are you taking about now?" Shu asked, rubbing the back of his head.
I turned around, walking backwards. "This isn't the end of my story just ye—*gasp* MY BOOK!" I raked my hands through my hair, "I HAVEN'T WRITTEN ANY CONTENT SINCE, SINCE...since...since..." I fell on my knees, "I can't even remember..not what I wrote last nor what it was called." I pressed my hands against the concrete, "I failed at being an author, I failed at being me."
"Aww~, Miyami-chan~. Do you want little brother's comfort~?" Laito asked, lifting me up by my waist and hugging me from behind.
"Say that to my daughter again, and I might just punish you, Laito," I spoke with a male tone.
Immediately, he let me go; to the inhumane eyes, a waver of a figure could be seen walking out of me.
My eyes returned to their normal color, no longer gold, to blue-green again.
Taking a deep inhale, I nearly fell forward, but he caught me in his arms.
"What the-... How long were you inside of her, old man?!" Ayato shouted.
"Around the offer part, but that doesn't matter now. Miyami, are you alright?"
"Never..do that again..having you inside my head and body makes more uncomfortable than my other self," I shivered.
"I'll take that as a practical answer and joke." He pulled me back and looked down at me with a smile. "Glad to know you've finally come to your senses and realized who your actual family is."
I lightly slapped his hands away. "I wasn't saying it for you. Anyway, about Kino, how do you suggest I handle him?"
"If he approaches subtly, you do the same. Mimic his actions and deceive him. Once that's done, I'll return him back into the nothing he was."
I grabbed his left arm, "Isn't there another way? Perhaps I can try convincing him to step down."
He narrowed his eyes, "That wasn't an option. It was an order."
I pressed my lips together and glanced down.
*Silence*
When he was about to turn away, my grip tightened, making him stop in his steps.
"Well then! I am willing to challenge your authority! Don't you forget that I can kill you now...and that you're under my..spell. If I want to convince Kino, I'm going to do it. I don't even know this boy's background well."
"I know you're crazy, Sister, but I didn't know you were insane," Subaru mumbled.
A clever smirk slid on my lips, "What do you expect of me due to being a part of this maddening family?"
"...As you wish... Luminitsas are stubborn," he mumbled the last part before disappearing.
*Silence*
I stretched, then let out a sigh. "...Ah, I have classes to teach. I almost forgot about that, too."
"We have that covered. Until you came back to Ryotei, since I'm a student in excellent standing, I told the head master that there's a family conflict you and all of us have to deal with."
I put my arms down, "I see. Then..let's go home, shall we?"
~Tiny Time Skip~ -Ayato's P.O.V-
"I refuse to be late to my lovely husband, dear bed! But first, my affair with my bath tub!" Sis shouted while running up the staircase.
"*Chuckle* She's happy to be home," Pervert spoke.
"Big Sis! I wanna take one with you, too!" Hysteric shouted, running after her.
She stopped, nearly at the top of the stairs. "...I think it unpleasant to take a literal blood bath with a sibling. I am not Catherine the Great."
We all knew she's referring to her nearly blood dried body.
She disappeared, meaning she used teleportation.
~Tiny Time Skip~
I let out a huff after falling face first on my bed.
When I landed, a faint grunt was heard...
I sighed, then leaned back up with my mere feet on the floor, and crossed my arms...
"May I help you..." I opened my eyes, "Shu."
"You alright?"
I let out a mixed huff and chuckle, "I'm okay. Why?"
He grabbed me by my waist and pulled me on his lap, leaning his forehead against mine. "I just..wanted to know for sure," he whispered.
I smiled, "You were worried about me..." I said in an amused tone.
"You're my sister. Why wouldn't I be?"
I shrugged, "Is that all? May I lay down now?"
"Do you know what you did when Ayato was here with you?"
"...I am well aware,'' I sighed out. "Fortunately for me, Lord Kanoe has no family. His parents died when he was young, he had no genetically tied aunts or uncles, no siblings, and no children. Cousins? He told me he wasn't close to them," I explained, then sighed again. "She...she gathered information in the midst of her seduction, then went for the kill. I am also aware of my situation with Ayato. I would never say this to him because of his pride and he would never show it, but..I just hope I didn't make him fear me in some way..."
*Silence*
Shu closed his eyes and leaned back on my bed with me on top, still straddling him.
Deciding to lay in the quiet with him, I knew he didn't ignore what I said because s grip around my waist tightened to the point of making me feel secure.
Nuzzling my head on his chest, I am lulled by the rising and falling of his chest...
(I have no idea why I'm on a rhyming role... Anyway, I found out that I created another similar chapter to this one and I had to sort out, which I wasn't gonna play out into the story. It was really confusing, and as I type this, I'm still trying to figure out what chapter comes next after this one. This taught me a lesson by creating one chapter at a time...)
