Hey guys! I'm back with chapter three! This chapter was hard to write because there were so many loose ends that I had to figure out how to tie together and I still don't think I put some of the puzzle pieces together. By request I had to add in a piece telling us how Ayato died and it was kind of a challenge because when it came to his death, I only pictured him hanging upside down and thats it. But regardless I hope you guys like what's up ahead because to be honest with you I was feeling iffy about how it works out in the story.

Warning: This chapter is in danger of confusing you, please proceed with caution.

Yui slipped into the house and quickly walked up the stairs, secretly praying that none of the remaining boys could smell the blood. She did her best to try and hide the scent by traveling through the thick forest in hopes that the earthy scents would latch onto her.

She successfully reached her room and silently closed the door behind her. She strode to her bathroom and to the clawed bathtub, turning the faucet. Yui poured in rose scented bubble bath, bath salts, and sprinkled rose petals in the water.

When the bath was filled up to her desired height, she turned off the water, gathered her hair up in a ponytail and undressed before finally slipping into the hot, rose infused water.

x.x.x..killers pamper themselves too. It's not easy spilling blood you know..x.x.x

~Flashback~

"Hey Ayato-kun, Kanato-kun do you want to go down by the lake? Ever since Reiji died I don't feel safe alone. Kanato we can visit her grave on the way there," Yui suggested.

Both boys agreed, Ayato exclaiming something about Your's Truly and Kanato snorting and hugging Teddy closer to them. The trio went on their way...but they never made it to the lake.

While Kanato kneeled at his mother's grave, Yui and Ayato wandered off a little ways in front the mausoleum.

"Thank you for walking with me. I just feel so exposed if I'm alone out here."

"Of course,it's only just that a peasant such as yourself should seek for help from Yours Truly!" Ayato said, making Yui laugh.

"But,' he said his tone growing serious,' You didn't think that I would do this for nothing in return did you?" He turned to her and started to stalk closer to her, making Yui back up against the mausoleum door. He leaned down to her neck and placed his hand on the door before it swung open.

The pair fell unceremoniously inside the mausoleum and lay there sprawled before Ayato shot up, propped on his hands, and looked around the room.

"Whoa! Look peasant!" He got up and walked further inside, leaving Yui on the floor to gather herself. Ayato looked around the room in raw amazement. The room was cleared out, no body (as in dead body) in sight, and replaced with ropes and various sharp instruments.

While the boy looked around, Yui took the opportunity to take him out. She bent down and slid out a knife from her boot then approached him as silently as she could.

"Look at all this stuff. It's like killing and torturing equipment." She sneaked behind him and raised the knife.

"Maybe one of these weapons in here was used to kill Reiji!" he yelled realization finally hitting him. He was about to turn to Yui, but she stabbed the knife deep in his back, sinking the blade into him until it reached the hilt.

Ayato staggered before collapsing on the floor. Yui yanked the knife out of his back and stabbed him again and again and again. When she was done, Yui made haste and quickly grabbed the items she needed to perform this murder in particular. After tying the rope around his ankles, she quickly threw the rope around a banister and began pulling the rope, hoisting the body up.

At that time Kanato had finished honoring the grave and turned to the open mausoleum door. The faintest scent of blood passed his nose, making him lick his lips and begin walking in the direction it was coming from. Yui took a peek out of the door and saw that the violet haired triplet was approaching; so she grabbed a bat and hide beside the open door waiting.

When Kanato finally reached the building, he dropped Teddy. There was Ayato hanging upside down with blood dripping from his body and pooling on the floor under him. Before he could do anything, something struck the back of his head and his vision went dark.

Yui walked out of the bathroom, towel drying her hair, when she was greeted by someone.

"Subaru-kun?" The boy in question turned to her, his red eyes burning holes into her.

"I see you got the smell off of you before they could notice."

"Huh?' she blinked at him,' what smell?"

"Blood."

"Oh right you smelled that? I cut my hand and had to clean it before Shu and the triplets came running for a taste," she explained laughing a little and held up a hand wrapped in a bloodied cloth.

Subaru didn't smile, instead he crossed his arms and looked at her coldly. "A simple cut required you to take a bath to clean it?"

Yui smiled and giggled. "I admit, women do have questionable methods that even they can't give the answer to."

" Anyway it wasn't your blood I smelled when you came in a little while ago."

"A little while ago? Subaru, I've been in the house since we got back from classes."

"You're lying. Where are Ayato and Kanato?"

Yui placed her index finger on her chin and hmmed. "I'm not sure. After we arrived back from classes, I went straight back to my room. I didn't pay attention to what everyone else was doing."

(Subaru didn't go to classes that night).

"You're lying again. You didn't go straight back to your room. You also smelled like the woods when you came in, so you went through the forest before you came back. Why?"

Yui sighed, trying to sound defeated. "I went to the spot where Reiji was murdered. I just feel so guilty, because he was killed and I couldn't do anything to help."

"I'll buy that bullshit cover up for now but I won't ignore the fact that you weren't alone."

"You're not going to get a peep from me Subaru-kun." In a flash, Subaru closed the distance between them and slammed his fist on the door behind her head. He was about to snap at her before he felt something sharp poke his chest. His red eyes looked down to see a her hand pointing the knife he gave her over his heart. He looked back up at her to see a menacing look on the usually innocent face.

She put her arm around his neck, still using the other to point the knife at his chest, and stared straight into his eyes.

Leaning close to his ear, she whispered," You know Subaru-kun. I'm not scared of you. You should be scared of me,' before pulling back and smiling sweetly at him.

x.x.x.x...don't strike a deal with a devil. It will only send you straight to hell...x.x.x.x

Shu jerked upright in bed and looked at Laito.

"Missing?"

Laito nodded. "They didn't come back home since night school." Shu groaned and collapsed back on the bed. "First Reiji and now two of the triplets" he mumbled to himself. It was bad enough that he had to actually step up and enforce his role as the eldest since Reiji was murdered, but now he had to deal with finding Ayato and Kanato on top of finding the murderer.

"Where's Subaru?"

"Not sure. He's probably still investigating the murder."

"Does he know they're missing?"

Laito shrugged. "Probably. He's the only one who knows what's going on most of the time."

Sighing, Shu sat back up and swung his feet off the side of his bed.

"I guess we have to go find him."

x.x.x.x...Torture Sequence..x.x.x.x

[ last chapter when I said Kanato was chained in a chair. I meant chains were around him and he was seated in a chair. Just wanted to be clear here]

He bit down on lips, the now extended fangs piercing the chapping skin, as he tried to keep his agonized yells from escaping his mouth..After Yui sewed his skin together, leaving the holy water dowsed rosary inside to continually burning him from the inside, she resumed more tortuous activities on him.

Yui gripped his hair, jerking his head up to look at her. "Why have you stopped screaming? Is this not painful enough for you? Should I make it worse?" She jerked him out of the chair, by his hair, making him yelp.

"Maybe this next activity will be more fun for the both of us." She dragged him over to the area beside Ayato's limp body and roughly let go of him, tugging out a few tufts of hair in the process. His back slammed against the floor and blood colored his lips when his teeth clamped down on impact.

"Give me one second," Yui chirped before walking over to her rope supply. Kanato exhaled a ragged breath of relief, this was the first in a long while that Yui had given him a second to compose whatever was left of him. His body ached and he was bleeding in several places from when Yui decided to play surgeon and cut various incisions along his arms and legs. A burning sensation slowly ignited in the spots that Yui ripped out his hair, and a sharp pain stabbed his neck from having it jerked around so much. His thoughts drifted back to Cordelia just as Yui came over.

She gently put a noose around his neck, but didn't tighten it. She tossed the remaining rope across the banister, hoisted him up and anchored the rope. He dangled a few feet in the air, still chained up. Yui grabbed the steel bat that was propped against the wall behind Ayato.

She returned to stand in front of him, the bat resting on her shoulder. Kanato opened his mouth to say something but his dry throat hindered him from doing so.

"I don't play baseball but I've been told I have a mean swing,'she positioned the bat in her hands as if she was ready to swing,' but I guess we can find out for ourselves." Kanato steeled himself for the first blow.

"Batter up."

After several potentially bone cracking blows, the noose slipped off of his neck making Kanato fell to the floor in a crumpled heap. His breaths were quick as he tried to regain the air that had been it out of his lungs.

Yui dropped the bat and stood over him. He glared at his torturer. She squatted, then took out her knife cutting the palm of her hand. She held her hand over his mouth, letting a few drops of blood drip into his mouth.

"There, now that should keep you up for a little while longer."

x.x.x...End Torture Sequence...x.x.x

"So what do you say Subaru-kun? Together we could be amazing. The church would love to have you on our side."

I'm still aiming to make this vague. I'm sorry I know it's frustrating but I don't like giving anything away.

Thank you guys for your awesome reviews guys! They motivate me so much.

Thank you Angel! I'm trying to as much as I can.

I'm glad you like it roxy-chan94.

I hope you're not mad Amecandy. I didn't answer any of you guys questions in this chapter and still kept you in the dark about what's going on. But look at the bright side, at least you get to see another Kanato torture scene.

Hey Bakugan5Ds I added the Ayato scene in just for you.

Thanks to these awesome new followers-
