Title : This War
Author : Identify
Chapter Four :
My eyes flickered open. I took a deep breath; my throat stung. I was cold, and whatever I was sleeping on felt rather soft, unlike my bed back in my dorm. It was dark where ever I was. I pushed myself up using my hands. Looking around, I could barely make anything out in the pitch black, except for blobs of furniture scattered here and there. My breathing was shallow, and my heart beat uncomfortably in my chest. Kind of like the morning I realized Gené was dead, except now it was more panic-y and it had an extra beat to it. I swallowed, making my throat hurt even more.
I kicked my legs to the side of the bed, placing my bare feet on the cold wooden surface. I stood up carefully, stretching out my arms and waving them around to find a surface; anything to guide me along. A scream sounded, and it took a moment for me to realize I had been the one who made the noise. My hands were pressing on someones chest. I took a wobbly step backwards as the lights flickered on. I bit on my lower lip to keep from screaming again when a pair of bright blue eyes landed on my face.
"Aidou-sempi?" I croaked out.
Kaname ... He filled my mind as last nights memories came flooding in like a down pour. If he knew Aidou had killed Gené, why the hell would he leave me alone with him? Unless he didn't realize it ...
"Oh, Komii, your finally awake ... Sleep well?" He smiled.
My lips quivered, eyeing the fangs that portrayed his open mouth.
"What? It looks as though you've seen a ghost." His smile was now a smirk, his eyes gleaming with evil.
I swallowed. My back bumped into something. It was the wall; he had me cornered.
"Oh? Your afraid of me? What did I do to make you afraid of little old me?" He teased, coming closer and closer to me.
It took all of my strength to not scream and slap him as hard as I could. I didn't know what to do. I was frozen in place by the way he held my eyes. It's like he held some spell over me.
"Oh. I see, it's because I killed Gené? Right?" There was that smirk again. "Well, if it helps, she tasted divine; I bet you do, too." He was in front of me now, his hand caressing my cheek.
I reached my arm up to slap his hand away when I felt a prickling numbness cacade my whole body except for my neck and up. I looked down.
"What the hell?" I gasped. My body was covered in ice. He had me. And I knew I wasn't going to live through this.
His laugh sent chills down my spine, although I'm pretty sure the ice was doing that too. "Now, now," He sighed, moving my hair away from my neck, eyeing it longingly as he licked his lips. "You knew this was coming, don't deny it."
He lowered his mouth onto my neck, licking it teasingly. I knew my knees would have collapsed in defeat if I could move. The ice was so cold ... I wondered if I would ever be able to move again ... that is if I lived through this. I felt two sharp objects glide over my fragile skin. My eyes squeezed shut as I took in what was to be my last breath.
In all inevitability, I actually tilted my head back, letting it rest against the wall. A low growl came from deep within his throat. Silent tears were pouring down my face as I thought of the life that was to be left behind; there was so much I hadn't done and so much I wanted to do.
Then he bit down as hard as he could. I could hear my skin break, the sound of his gulping out my blood. And if it were more important, the last thing I thought of were those wine colored eyes I loved so much ...
A While Later ...
There was this pain surging through my body when the darkness consumed me. I was surprised I was even aware of it. It was like I was floating through this thick fog of black ... trying to find a way out but I couldn't. Is this what it was like to die? What about the whole heaven and hell deal? I wondered where I was. Who I was for a moment even ... but I remembered Aidou's evil glare and the sound of my blood being taken away from me ... like he was sucking my life away. It was ironic though ... floating alone and away from the world like this ... made me feel some actual peace for once. As though I truly belonged away from it all ... like I was made to be alone. It felt good. I felt free. There were no more worries. And then I thought about Gené ... I wondered if this is where she went ... and suddenly I found myself looking through her, although it was nearly impossible to see anything in this black.
My hands felt it's way through the fog. And I heard a voice.
"Komii ... I'm happy where I am ... Don't feel bad anymore okay?" It was Gené's voice.
"Gené? Where are you?" I asked, my voice was faint.
"I'm in a better place now. You need to wake up. Okay? Do it for me? Don't give yourself up just because I'm gone."
And then I dissolved ... well everything dissolved.
My real eyes, the ones connected to my body on earth, opened. I gasped, shooting straight up. A pair of hands pushed back on my shoulders and I screamed, thinking it was Aidou.
Two grey eyes landed on my face questioningly. It was Zero.
"Zero?" I gasped. I reached out and poked his cheek.
"Yeah, you okay Komii?" He looked worriedly into my eyes.
"Uhm ... I don't really ... know." I pulled the hair of my shoulder and tried looking to see if there were any bite marks.
He gasped, and I knew there was. "Who bit you?" He asked, suddenly outraged.
"Aidou." I said in a small voice, clinging to the little hope I had left, that Gené was telling the truth about being happy.
I had to find out how I was still alive ... how come he didn't drain me of all my blood ... and whether I was a vampire or not.
I didn't know where to end this so I just did XD;; Hope you enjoyed it. Chapter five will be coming soon, but only if you review :D
