Me: I memorized all the lyrics in Shining Collection.

Lyserg: That's cause you listen to it 24/7!

Me: I know. –smirk- I love it!

Ren: You are weird…

Me: -sigh- Here's chapter 8! And yes, I skipped a lot of episodes... sorry!

Ren: Is she even listening to us?

Lyserg: No.

CHAPTER 8

When they arrived at the resort, they went to the hot springs. But the most unlikely two people showed up. Ren and Hao. Hao sat next to Lyserg and Yoh, and Ren sat next in between Horo and Ryu (Lyserg, Hao, Yoh, Horo, Ren, Ryu). Lyserg tried to glare at Hao as best as he could. It was so hard. Good thing Yoh lifted a hand from the water and told him to relax. Hao smirked at Lyserg. "I guess I shouldn't worry about my cute servant. He'll come back to me eventually," Hao said and put a hand on Lyserg's cheek. Lyserg slapped the hand away and bared his teeth at Hao. To Lyserg, Hao and Ren, it was a play.

"Don't you dare touch me you sick freak!" Lyserg yelled. Hao smiled and turned to Yoh. "So how have you been Yoh? Do you think I trained Lyserg well?" Hao asked. Ren smirked. Hao was good at acting himself. Then the chinese boy looked at Horo, but Horo turned his head away. This made the purple haired boy's smirk widen. Yoh smiled lazily at Hao and said, "Ne onii-chan, Lyserg is pretty strong." Yoh said. Hao turned to Lyserg, who had closed his eyes and tried to forget that the two were here. Ryu was lost in Lyserg's beauty. Hao stood and pulled Lyserg to him. The only thing that covered them was those towels around their waist. Lyserg pushed and squirmed against Hao, but Hao wouldn't allow it.

Then while restraining the boy, Hao looked at Ryu. "Don't you dare touch what is mine," Hao said. Then Hao licked at Lyserg's ear, and Lyserg faked a snap. He pulled away from Hao and slapped him in the cheek. He couldn't look while he did so. He said sorry to his lover over and over in his head, knowing that he understood. Hao smiled. "At least he has fight. I like it," and with that, Hao stepped out of the bath. Before Ren left with him, he whispered in Horo's ear, "See you soon,". Horo felt his ear that Ren spoke into, and blushed.

Lyserg sat back into the bath, looking really angry. Yoh now was convinced that he wasn't on Hao's side anymore. Everything was going the way it was supposed to. "The nerve of that guy, treating Lyserg like a piece of property. Like he was just a doll- "Can we please forget what just happened Ryu-san?" Lyserg asked. He didn't like it when people insulted Hao, thinking he was scum. As soon as he was done with this charade, he would kill Ryu. No one gets away from insulting Hao. "I am sorry Lyserg-kun," Ryu said. Lyserg put on a fake smile and said that it was alright and he forgave Ryu. There were no interruptions after that. But Lyserg still wanted Ryu to die (I am sorry RyuLyserg fans, I love them too. But Lyserg loves Hao in this fic).

LATER

Lyserg said he was going out to get fresh air and ran outside. He wanted to see Hao. When he saw his lover, he ran into his arms. They kissed passionately, and then pulled away. "Does your cheek hurt?" Lyserg asked. Hao shook his head. "So, how do you think Yoh's doing?" Hao asked. Lyserg sighed. "I don't think he'll be able to reach a level to fight you, Hao-kun," Lyserg said. Hao sighed. "Well, you still need to be with them. I love you," Hao said. They kissed again. When they pulled apart, puffs of white escaped their mouths. The night was getting colder. "I'll see you later Lyserg," Hao said and disappeared in flames. Hao's warm embrace went away and Lyserg ran back inside.

"Hey Lyserg, back so soon?" Yoh asked. Lyserg nodded and made his body shiver. "It's cold outside," he said. Horo smirked. "I think I am going to go out. I miss the cold," and with that Horo left. When he stopped at the bride, he felt another presence following him. "Why don't you come out now Ren?" Horo said. Ren jumped out of the tree and landed right next to the blue haired boy. "Ren, I don't know what to think of you. You are an enemy, but yet I can't help but know you have this hold on me." Horo said. Ren walked up to him and pressed himself against his Horo.

Horo wrapped his arms around Ren's waist. Looking into each other's eyes, what they were doing was forbidden. They kissed passionately. Ren's arms wrapped around Horo's neck, trying to crush their mouths closer together. But they needed air and pulled away. Then Ren slipped out of his arms and said, "I have to go. Bye Horo," Ren said. They then both walked away from each other. Not looking back...

THE NEXT DAY

They walked on, still looking for Patch village. Though when they arrived in a town, it was empty. Like a ghost town. No one was there. Then when they entered the church, there was only a preist inside reading his bible. "Hello young travelers, you need a place to stay?" he asked. They nodded and the preist said they could stay there. Ryu told them that Tokageru wanted to see the vampire movie and he agreed to take the spirit. Though it did seem a while when they didn't get back. "Nah, I'm sure the idiot is fine." Horo said to himself.

Lyserg was smirking on the inside. It was Boris. Then he shuddered slightly. The older man always had a thing for him... and he shuddered again at the thought of being biten by him. "Cold, isn't it Lyserg?" Yoh said. Lyserg looked at Yoh and nodded. It seemed that Yoh was getting suspiscious again. The green haired boy shrugged it off, until he heard the church door open. It was Ryu. He stalked over, his eyes red. It looks like Ryu got bit. Horo tried to ask Ryu what was wrong, but then Ryu sunk his teeth into his neck. Horo gasped and squirmed in pain.

Then both fell to the floor. Then Yoh and Lyserg went to the other room with the preist. Unsure of what to do. The preist just sat there, and then said, "It's the doing of a vampire... that's why people have left town.". Lyserg then recognized the preist. It was one of Hao's followers. "But vampires aren't real," Yoh said. But then he thought, shamans were real and pretty unbelievable, so why is it that vampires can't be real? "It is the heir of Dracula," the preist said. Lyserg sighed. Oh yeah, they still had a play to perform. "That's a fictional novel." Lyserg said. The preist shook his head and explained what had happened to Vlad the impaler.

"So this vampire is turning our friends into vampires as well?" Yoh asked. Lyserg had tried to put on a suprised look. Then Ryu got up and entered the room. "Master Yoh, what is going on? It was weird. I was watching a movie and this guy was in the theatre. He said that he was a vampire and that humans got their prospective on vampires is wrong. Then he snuck around and bite me. I could see, but I couldn't control my actions." Ryu said. Lyserg put a face of relief. Of course he knew what would happen once the victim bit another. "I am glad you are well again Ryu-san. But this seems suspiscious. When I read Dracula, they stayed vampires." Lyserg pointed out.

The doors were opened and Horo came in, screeching. Now he was under their control...
