Chapter Twelve: Lover's reunite

Kaiba started to wake up and the first person he saw was Megumi, telling him to stay alive. But he knew it was over for him. The pain he felt across his chest gave him stabs of pain every time he breathe and wish he would stop doing it, to breath and live.

How long will this go on? How long before I see that end of the tunnel and into the light and be gone forever? I don't think I have much time but I won't leave yet, not without saying goodbye to Mokuba…or to Téa first.

Téa...I can almost imagine her as if she were at right there. When he closed his eyes and opened them again, he saw her, Téa coming towards him.
"Hmm even this close to death, I'm almost at Heaven and there's Téa, an angel she is." He whispered.

Guni flew over to him. "You're not dead yet idiot and you don't have to be. So stop with the soap opera fiasco already." She flutter over by Téa as she came over and pushed his bangs aside his face and pressed her cool palm on his forehead. He felt warm and feverish.

And there was so much blood…. he won't last long. If she didn't do something, he might be lost to her again like before and she wouldn't be able to bear the pain of losing him. His voice broke her thoughts and looked deeply into his sapphire clear eyes.

"Téa I had a very strange dream. It had to do with us…We were in Egypt and we're in..." He trailed on as his cough harshly. Téa held one of his hands in hers. "Yes I know Seto, I know. Listen, I remember something, something important: I remembered a part of my past. I had been called Anzu and I had a lover, his name was Seth. He's you Seto. You're my lost love." She cried, tears dropping onto his face. He reached one shaky hand towards her face and wipe one of her tears away. "Don't cry...Tea please don't."

Why not Seto! Why shouldn't I cried, she wanted to yell, to curse at the gods for branded her lover's fate once again after spending half a millennium alone and miserable. She continued tocry as she saw how weak he was, how close to losing her beloved was as he laid dying in her grasp. She wanted to push all thoughts aside and embrace him in her arms, just to feel him, breathe him, live the life they once shared.

Only cruel fate and time seem against her and her love once more.

"I thought I lost them all...when Cain killed him and turn me into a vampire, but you had just been buried deep inside me for so long until now." Then she saw him wring in pain as he tried to speak. The bleeding continued and there was no stopping it.

This can't happen! No not like this, I don't want to you him again.

"Please stay Seto." She cradled his head in her arms. He looked at her, his face pale and the corner of his lip bleeding, leaving a redmarking to trail down his cheek. She heard him say something, so soft and whispery but she had heard it. And it was the one she feared he would ask.

"Make...Make me...into a vampire...like you..."

She gasped and stared into his eyes. Frighten and shocked at what he was asking her to do.

"Seto, you don't know what you are saying, how can you ask me to do something like that? Do you know what it's even like? Do you want to wander the eternal darkness like this, to be trapped in dark nights forever, always endless..." She was on the verge of losing herself over the decision of choosing whether to do what was right in her moral or wrong in her heart, to turn him into a vampire or let him die mortal. But she already knew which would win.

I don't want to him to die again. Cain killed him first time and she couldn't have save him them but now she could.

Do it! Her heart screamed, change him and let him stay with you forever. It's taken you this long to find him and he's slipping from your grasp already. Do you want to be mourning him again when it could take forever or never to ever find him?

But does becoming a creature of the night answer any of our problems! Why does life have to be cruel, God, why? She felt his eyes staring right at her.

"Please...I want to...I want to be with...you. I love you..." She swallowed hard as she leaned her lips against his nearly cold ones.

Forgive me, forgive me for being selfish like this….for this to stow upon you my love. For my love to do this to us...

"I love you too," she whispered as their lips touched and the blood of him entered her mouth. Megumi and Guni watched in awe silence as the two lovers held onto one another, their eyes shut as they exchanged their lifeblood through their forever immortal kiss. The wound on Kaiba's chest was healing and it close away, leaving without a scar on him. She broke the kiss and drew her head back as she looked at him, waiting to see if it worked, waiting to see if he was reborn into thevampire of the night. He opened his eyes and she witnessed his sapphire blue gems flashed into those of golden amber fire then returned back to normal.

It worked. He was one of them now. A vampire. A creature of darkness.

"Thank you Téa...thank you so much." He whispered as he felt Téa held him for the longest time as the nightmare of last night was over and a new life had begun for the both of them.

Few months later...

It was spring, late in April, when Seto, Téa, Mokuba and Guni decided to take a walk down to the park in the afternoon. With the setting sun and the nearing quietness of the almost empty place, it gave the four of them time to relax and feel free spirited with the coming of change in the air.
Mokuba was very please to see his big brother again, well and alive as ever; happy even more at finding out his brother was now a vampire.
'Cool now all we need is a couple vampire kids and we're a complete family!' He joked and watched as his brother's face turned beet red, then Guni nagging at him to keep from those certain 'dirty' thoughts. But anyway, Mokuba was glad to be with his very own happy family again.

The four had strolled down the peaceful walkway before they saw someone they recognized. "Well my word, is that Megumi over there?" Mokuba asked pointing to the point where he saw the person and Tea and Seto looked in that direction too. Megumi was indeed sitting on a bench, smiling playing with her baby when she saw them coming.

"Téa! Seto! Why hello there! I'm glad to see you." She said cheerfully while holding her newborn son. The child squirmed a bit in his mother's arms. Guni and Mokuba went over towards her to see it.

"Oh he's so cute. What's his name?"

"Taki. Taki Junior." And the baby tried to make a grab at Guni and instead grabbed a fistful of Mokuba's dark hair. "Ow! Hey take it easy there, kid. That's attach to my skull you know." He was rubbing his head when the baby let go. "That kid sure got quite a grip there." He said teasingly. They chatted a little bit before they decided it was time to go home. They waved farewell to Megumi and her baby, T.J. as they too had to headed back to their apartment.

"Boy, after what you guys told me about the phantom baby months ago, I highly doubt Megumi or her kid would be capable of those killings."

"Don't be deceived like that kiddo." Guni said, "Sometimes a mom's gotta provide her kid anything to keep them alive and protect them at all times. Like a lioness providing for her cub. That's the way of life..." She said sarcastically. Kaiba watched them as they continue arguing and smiled.

Such a strange little family we are. And as this went on between the two, Seto turned his attention on Téa who was way behind. She had been quiet most of the day, in fact weeks before. She was now looking back to where they had last seen Megumi and T.J., watching with a distance stare beyond the horizon.

"Is something the matter?" She looked up into his stare and sighed deeply. She knew she couldn't keep anything away from him, even if she wish she did. He had to know eventually, now she wished it wasn't time to let it out. She turned away as she spoke.
"I been thinking of what I did to you…what I had decided fatally without any second thoughts at all to what I had did that made me pain to know what my actions have haunted. I made time slow down for you and soon, in matter of whether to speak, it will stop entirely Seto. You will never grow any older than what you are now, no way of ever changing back…just forever like this. You may not regret it now but someday you will. And I'm afraid that when that day comes, you'll find it in your heart to hate me for what I did. When Cain changed me, I hated him forever, feeling that he had taken the life that I would never have again. Now…I done it exactly to you. I'm sorry…"
He looked over at her surprised, both his eyebrows raised. So she was afraid of him hating her for changing him? To making her feel unloved and unwelcome for what she did after risking the consequences and giving him a chance to relive.

"Is that all Tea, that's why you were so worried about?" She nodded.

He sighed, then ran his fingers through his hair. "Why would I do that? I would never regret this Téa. I was the one who asked you to change me, remember? As you said, you and I had both been lost lovers in the past but now we are reunited again." He lifted her chin towards his face. "Beside Tea, I will never hate you." He slung one arm around her shoulder and let her lean onto him. They followed up after the other two as Mokuba and Guni waited impatiently for the two vampires to catch up. Seto whispered into her ear as they reached the mansion. "I love you very much and too much to ever make me hate you in the world."

"All right Seto...thanks..." But still, there will be a time when he will regrets this and possible leave me forever. She thought sadly. Seto chuckled as he cupped her chin and turned her head towards his, smirking as he read her thoughts. "Not likely Téa." Then placed a kiss on her lips.
