Author's Notes:We are now back into the present! Not one of my best writings but I'll make it better if I have the time but I just wanted it to end and hopefully leave something for you readers to hope for. I don't really like how I ended the story but maybe in the far or even near future there will be a sequel. Read and Review it!
Yori walked down to the big oak tree. This was the first thing that caught her attention after arriving in the valley. The scents that she now can identify herself by heart filled her nostrils. But one particular scent was unusual and foreign, something that she did not like. This is strange. There has never been a sent like this in the 2 years that I have been here. Closing her eyes, she tried to imagine what creature had a scent like this.
The image that came up on the inside of her eye lids was something she wish she could forget. The fateful night that she lost her parents to that horrible, beast in human form, vampire. It's fangs exposed, the mouth hanging opening dripping in her parents blood craving for more. It disgusted her and yet made her shrink in fear.
Now with caution, she walked to the big oak tree she marked with her and her parents initials.
Hanabusa could smell it half a mile away.
I wonder if this smell is suppose to lead me to my prey?wonder Aidou to himself. If it is then this is easy and I can get back to the others by the end of tomorrow.
Smirking to himself with his 'brilliant' plan he decided to play with it for a while.
Yori quietly approached the tree, and peered at the animal with the foreign scent. She gasped, what she saw was a blond teen… taking a nap in the middle of no where! She glanced at him and his clothes. He looks pretty rich, with the type of clothes he's wearing. He was wearing white pants, with a waist coat and his jacket had black strips of cloth running by the button holes, a red tie that was loose, and black shoes the ones for dancing and yet perfect for walking.
And yet in the back of her mind, her instincts told her to run as far away as she could. Then it clicked in her mind, he was a vampire! His aura and perfect beauty only made it even more clearer. She dropped the bitter-root flowers she was holding, turned the other way and ran back to the cabin she build.
What the hell? Why is she running away? Isn't she suppose to come and wake me? thought Hanabusa. This is one odd girl! All well, her lost.
But a nagging feeling started to overcome him as the girl got farther and farther away. Damn it! She's not that important! Why is this even important. Finally his legs moved on their own and started to go into the direction of the girl.
Reaching the cabin, Yori stopped to take a breathe. Wow! I never thought that I would see another vampire! Much less in this valley! Mother said that no vampire can get into this valley. I wonder why he could get in here? And are there others? these thoughts raced into her mind, but then quickly was dismissed.
Looking to the west, the sunset was beautiful, its yellow rays coming beaming out it tuned into a purple, navy blue, and orange color. All mixed together with perfect harmony.
Hanabusa followed the scent of the girl for some time now and it was getting stale so he was about to give up when his sonic ears picked up a crackling noise, like the noise of a fire. Stealthy he followed the noise.
He somehow ended up by a cabin, it wasn't very big, but was to big enough to be called a shack. It was well build but there were cracks and holes in it but it some how was warm enough. He circled around to the front, or what he presumed to be. Peeking in he saw a girl laying next to the fire with a very thin blanket, not even warm enough to keep her warm. Her back was facing the door so he couldn't see her face; something about the girl made his heart beat loud and his eyes turn crimson.
Her blood that flowed thorough her, smelled so wonderful that he couldn't put into words, but all he knew was that he wanted it.
She will be my prey! And then I'll show those stupid councils how faithful I am to Kaname! thought Hanabusa grinning to himself. Looking up at the moon he decided that that he would take her to back to the meadow, where they were suppose to meet 2 days from yesterday.
Quietly and stealthy, Hanabusa sneaked into the cabin without much trouble. Ha! By this rate I'll be back by mid-day tomorrow!Hanabusa allowed another grin to come on his face. Hanabusa looked at the sleeping girl, her frame looked so delicate that he was afraid to pick her up.
His heart started to beat fast, his hands started to sweat. This is not the time to get anxious! Come on Hanabusa! Get in control!!! Keep your cool! he thought, why is this happening?! Is… is… is it this girl?!?!
No! thought Hanabusa. He was the great looking and mightily strong Hanabusa, next in line for the Aidou title, and not to mention a very proud noble vampire! He can not be getting nervous by some human girl that he just saw, let alone talked to!
Pushing this thought aside, he quickly picked up the girl, she stirred. He froze. All you could hear is the sound of the crickets chirping.
Mmm… papa's strong arms. thought Yori. Then reality kicked in. This is not papa's arms! her caution took hold of her, slightly opening her eyes, just barely, she saw the blond teen she saw earlier today. What is this guy doing here?
Yori thinking the whole situation and all the scenarios ran thorough her mind. He could kidnap me and then suck me dry and then I'll be able to join mother and father, or he could…he could…not being able to think of any other scenarios Yori decided to play along with his games.
He quickly walked thorough the forest in the direction he came from. Dawn was coming quickly and he knew that if he didn't hurry he won't make it on time. The girl on his shoulder didn't make a sound at all. Sometimes he thought she was dead, but her quiet breathing, that could only be heard by sonic ears, would quickly disprove this. But the thing that made him want to hurry was because of the smell her blood was giving off.
It smelled so delicious, he just wanted to have it right there and then.
The sun breaking over the ocean, signaled that he can stop, because he only had about 5 to 5 ½ miles left before he reached the meadow. Gently laying the girl down against a tree he decided that he would not tie her up. Even if I didn't tie her up, I doubt she could find her way back to… and even if she runs away I can quickly catch up to her.
Leaning down on another tree he finally drifted off to sleep right when the birds started chirping.
Yori woke up with the birds, chirping all around her. She yawned, then quickly remembered that she was kidnapped and her guard was up in a flash. Where the heck am I? she thought. It seems like I'm not near my cabin or anywhere I'm familiar with…
Take a careful scan around her environment, she spotted the vampire. He's so peacefully looking when he sleeps. Then a sudden thought entered her mind, If he's a vampire shouldn't I be dead right now? I mean don't all vampires drink blood whenever they can?pondering all these questions, Yori didn't even notice that her stomach was growling.
Finally a griping feeling in her stomach brought her out of her thinking mode. Hmm, I should go find something to eat.
Holding a couple of berries in her hands, she quickly ate them. Sitting back down Yori looking curiously at the vampire teen she saw that he laid completely still almost like stone. I wonder if he is really asleep or if he is just pretending? How can he just sleep like that? Isn't it uncomfortable? Finally her curiosity got the best of her; she got up and walked over to the vampire.
Of course Hanabusa could hear her walk, breathe, and smell her. I guess playing with her would be fun! thought Hanabusa. When she got close enough so that he knew she would see him move, he slowly moved his arm to the side of his body, just to see her reaction. She just stood there. Interesting... She isn't like any other human girl…
After several times of doing this Hanabusa knew that she knew he was awake. Then his chest started to hurt. Damn it! Not now! he tried to push the feeling down, it went down but just slightly.
Near Dusk
His chest hurt even more. Hanabusa's blood-lust would not calm down whenever the gir- Yori was around. After learning her name he just sat there and occasionally he went for a stroll. Yori just sat there, this bugged the shit out of him but he didn't show it.
Finally he couldn't take it anymore, he needed blood and needed it badly. His eyes glowed a crimson color. He lunged for her neck. Lowering his head to her neck he caught a glimpse of her eyes. Her brown-golden eyes didn't waver with fear or even excitement, it was blank as a sheet of paper. He hesitated.
"Go ahead, I don't care anymore… just let it be as painless as possible." Yori said, without a hint of fear.
What? This human girl wants to die? thought Hanabusa. Raising his eyes to met hers, he saw grief, sorrow, sadness in her eyes, that weren't there before. He saw hints of fear, but what caught his attention in her eyes were the determination. In all his life he has never seen such determination in any girl, both human and vampires eyes. He was memorized, captivated.
His blood-lust quieted down immediately, almost as if it was afraid of Yori. How can I take this girl to the council for who knows what?
A nagging feeling that he's had, finally died. Trusting his instincts he let go.
Walking back to his tree, feeling ashamed and yet relieved, he started to get sleepy.
What am I going to do with her if I don't have the heart to bring her to the council? was his last thought before darkness overcame him.
