Bffimagine: Wow. Five chapters already!

Kai: I think you should give this up and become an actor.

Bffimagine: Huh?

Rei: I think Kai's right.

Bffimagine: What are you talking about?

Kai and Rei: Big, mischievous smiles

The wind shifted across the ground, autumn leaves splattered with blood flying across the currents of wind.

A faint mist had begun to haze lazily into view. A lone figure stood in the waning sun, fading into orange and painful, bloody crimson.

Tears of deep red ran their course down powdery white skin, dripping apart and splattering on the ground.

Amber eyes held a look of astonishment and surprise, feline features drawn in a grimace. Two fingers lay gingerly on the lids, drawing them closed.

Blood dripped slowly from the gaping stab wound, staining both the clothes of the one whom held the dead, and the dead on itself.

"I'm so sorry."

Words whispered across the vampire's lips. He held the body of the werewolf to his chest and glared disdainfully at the dagger.

"I let him get you."

Agonising memories shot through his two-toned head.

Flashback

"Don't let her get to close with that dagger," Kai warned, keeping an eye on Rei.

"I don't plan to," the other replied shortly.

The shadow of the figure simply smirked and laughed, making both Kai and Rei shiver with the cold it emitted from it's heart.

"BEHIND YOU!"

Kai swivelled around, but he was too late. The dagger's tip smiled scornfully at him and aimed, ready to plunge within the flesh.

Rei's cry of pain rang through the silence, making the non-existent stars mourn the loss. Kai stood, dumbstruck at what had just occurred.

"Rei…"

Rage boiled the vampire blood, making the crimson eyes even more intense. All traces of the gentle steel had left the eyes of the witch vampire, and his bloodlust came with intention to kill.

In a blur of blades and fangs, the enemy was ripped apart, heart still beating as Kai ripped it from his ribcage. He threw the meaningless organ to the ground and wept tears of blood; tears of the vampires.

He picked his lover up and simply stood in the wind, watching the bloodstained leaves rustle by.

End of Flashback

The pain had ripped through Kai's heart, and he could simply will away the tears they would not bring him back.

A soul-less shell cried out in anguish; the pained cry of lost love.

Kai woke with a start. There was blood all over the white sheets Tala had set upon the bed, (A/N: Luckily he put about… fifteen layers of 'em otherwise he'd have a bloody mattress to deal with) and pain had ripped through every square inch of his flesh.

"I didn't take care of those wounds too well."

Wincing, Kai made his way to the washroom and sighed as he noted the bloody trail he had left on the floor. He turned on the shower and took a glance at the clothes he had left in the sink to soak.

"The blood's almost out…"

Kai slipped off his newly bloody clothing and stepped into the shower. He bit his lip as the hot water made his flesh sting more than it already did.

Reaching up to grab the washcloth, Kai's hand brushed across his face. He hadn't let the water rush over his face yet, and so the thin film of cold sweat was still there.

"What a nightmare…"

Kai shivered as he recalled the events of his dream. He supposed if he scryed (A/N: Witches use scrying to tell the future or to find out whereabouts or what has happened in the past or what is happening in the present. Sort of like divination) he could tell if he was just having a regular nightmare or if he was having a vision.

"Please let it be a normal nightmare."

Kai washed his bloody hair and body as quickly as possible, then washed out the red washcloth. This time the blood left an orangey tinge to the white, but Kai rolled his eyes and hung it up anyways.

This time, Kai opened the medicine cabinet and pulled out the gauze and the disinfectant. He used several cotton balls to dab at his injuries and wrapped them snugly with the white bandages.

"I hope they don't bleed anymore."

Filling the tub with hot water, Kai poured liquid soap into the bathtub. He stripped his bed (A/N: I think it would be better if he stripped himself hehe O.o) and put the red-stained sheets in the steaming water.

Kai grabbed the orangey washcloth and wet it with the running hot water. He squeezed the excess out and went back into the bedroom.

Glancing at the clock, Kai made his way over to the cot where he had put Rei.

Kai's lover was sleeping peacefully, the rise and fall of his chest in perfect rhythm to the ticking of the clock.

"You've finally changed back."

Kai wiped Rei's face and any other parts of him that were exposed, like his feet and arms. He gently rubbed away the bloody patches on Rei's skin and wiped over the rest of him as well. Untying the cloth, he threw the strips into a corner of the room.

Yawning slightly, Kai ran back into the washroom and threw the washcloth into the water where his sheets were soaking. He pulled out a cup from the medicine cabinet and filled it with water.

Kai looked into the water and concentrated with deathly focus, watching as the water formed images for him to read.

"So it IS true, even if my dream was fiction."

bffimagine: Hehe. I just felt REALLY evil and decided to leave you there.

Kai: Well then, why don't you give them a preview of the next chapter?

Rei: Yeah! Why not?

Bffimagine: I don't want to. I'm too lazy.

Kai: You're going to do what we tell you RIGHT now or we're getting out of this fic.

Rei: We CAN do that you know.

Bffimagine: Well, I can just kill Kai and get it over with then.

Kai: Hate it when she does that.

Preview of chapter 6:

Kai walked through the Russian streets and Rei struggled to keep up.

"Stop going so fast Kai!"

Kai snapped his head back and nodded.

"Sorry."

"What's the matter?" Rei asked breathlessly, catching as many gulps of air as possible after running to keep up with his lover.

"I scryed last night."

Rei looked puzzled.

"It means I used divination. I looked into the future to see if my nightmare was really a vision, but it wasn't. I found out something else though." Kai hung his head tiredly.

"What happened in your nightmare?"

"I was standing alone. This person killed you, but I couldn't his face. And you died in my arms. It hurt so badly I thought it was real." A tear of bloody crimson trailed down Kai's cheek.

"It's not though, so you'll be fine. What did you find out when you scryed?"

"I found out who the person I saw in the dream was."
