Burping loudly, Yuu stepped out of the kitchen, stomach full and hunger satiated. Wiping his mouth with the sleeve of his white livestock uniform, leaving a small brown stain on it, he lightly walked around the hallway, making his way to the stairs.
"Man, that was great! At least there's one good thing about Sanguinem. Who'd have thought it would be the food?" He muttered under his breath, glancing around suspiciously to see if Crowley was anywhere, ready to pounce and metaphorically devour him.
Finally making it to the top of the stairwell he walked around the huge foyer, the wide quartz pillars with elegant swirls at the bases and tops and straight, narrow lines on their sides. The beautiful, pristine white walls, and the unrealistic light that seemed to come from everywhere and nowhere, revealing no shadows.
Yuu was about to walk back up to his room, burping once more and patting his stomach before he heard a large knock on the door. On instinct, without thinking of whichever vampire might try to enter the house, he opened the door, looking to the side. "What is it?" He muttered, not looking at the vampire before him.
Then as he turned to face the seventh progenitor before him he realized his huge mistake.
"Ah, hello Yuichiro. Good to see you, I see Crowley has been taking excellent care of you!" Ferid Bathory said enthusiastically, pushing Yuu aside as he walked into the mansion. Yuu's face flushed bright red as the progenitor pushed him aside, the ravenette practically growling as the vampire entered what Yuu considered his territory.
"Why are you here!" He yelled angrily, marching up in front of Ferid and staring up at the slightly taller vampire, hands on his hips. The seventh progenitor smirked. "Ah, I came for a very good reason." He said, lifting one hand to his chin as he glanced around the foyer. Yuu glared even harder. If looks could kill Ferid would be a bloodstain on the ground.
Out of nowhere, Ferid smirked down at Yuu before grabbing him and hauling the smaller teen over his shoulder. "To take you to Krul!" He yelled happily, the teen screaming and yelling again at being picked up for the second time that day.
"Let me go!" Yuu screamed as Ferid sprinted out of the house, running down the street towards the palace at an unbelievable pace. Yuu was practically screeching at the fast speed, at least 65 km an hour.
By the time Ferid reached the throne room one minute later, Yuu's eyes were tearing up and his hair was messed up, waving and flopping in all directions from the rapid speed. Dumping the teen unceremoniously on the ground, Ferid marched up to the throne, pulling up a chair and sitting beside it. Glaring at the vampire, Yuu slowly stood up, preparing to speak his mind before somebody cleared their throat.
Looking up, Yuu saw the third progenitor and queen of the Japanese vampires, Krul Tepes, in all her 4 foot 11 glory.
Smiling and tilting her head to the side, Krul jumped off her throne, walking up to the stunned ravenette before her. "Hello Yuichiro. It's been a while." She said, grasping his chin and forcefully pulling his head down to her level. Still stunned, the teen stared at Krul, before his face hardened into a glare.
Jumping back, he readied himself in a fighting stance. "Come at me, I'll take you on!" He yelled, clenching his fists in preparation for a fight. Still smiling, Krul slowly walked forward, still a large distance away from Yuu.
"Is that so?" She said, look replaced by a glare of contempt before she disappeared. Yuu spun around, only to find Krul less than a foot away from him, facing away from Yuu, as though disinterested in the entire event. As thought Yuu was beneath her. The thought sent anger flowing through Yuu's system, adrenaline rushing throughout his body. Suddenly spinning around, she disappeared again into thin air, as though she was a ghost. Yuu practically flailed around, desperately trying to locate the queen.
"Above you!" Krul yelled out as she landed on Yuu, legs slinging around his waist and hands tightening around his head, prepared to his neck. The ravenette stood dead still, knowing that the queen could kill him easily if she wanted to. Leaning forward to whisper in his ear, Krul rested her head next to his.
"I could just apply a little pressure, and it would all…" She whispered, tightening her grip. "Be…" She said, slowly moving her hands. "Over." She said, jumping off the teen and backing away towards her throne.
Yuu stepped back shakily, the tension escaping his limbs. Falling to his knees, he glared at the queen before collapsing to the ground. He hissed, still glaring at Krul.
"Wha- What did you do to me…" He was barely able to whisper as Krul walked over slowly. Stopping beside him, Krul knelt down, gently patting him on the head. She turned to look at Ferid, who was watching the scene with amusement.
She gestured at Yuu, extending her hand out to point at him. "Take him to a room here. I can't trust Crowley with my rediscovered seraph." Krul stood back up, walking away as Ferid walked over, slinging Yuu's paralyzed body over his shoulder. "Let's go!" He said before walking off deeper into the large castle.
Yuu darted up, awake, panting as the cold damp air settled around him. Glancing around the room, it was quite possibly the opposite of a prison cell. A red and orange carpet, swirling with intricate designs and with gold stitching looping and turning throughout itself. There was a large mirror on the side of the humongous room (which was quite possibly five meters by five meters), with ornate gold sides.
The ravenette stepped forward, poking the mirrors side. "Wow, is this 24 carat gold? Jeez, that queen bitch sure has a lot of good stuff." He said, scowling at the thought of the Queen. Rubbing his neck, Yuu walked over to the door, turning the doorknob to open it. It didn't open.
Yuu stared at it a little while longer before pushing it again, struggling to open the door. Pushing even harder, he leaned against the door, still having one hand twisting the doorknob before pushing even harder, the wood starting to groan slightly under his weight.
After one whole minute Yuu hadn't made any progress, the door refusing to budge. Sighing, he stepped back, rubbing his eyes and yawning. "Fuuuuuck," He groaned, stretching backwards.
Than the door slammed open, right into him. Leaping backwards in pain, the ravenette yelped, his foot seeming to burst with pain. Hopping on the other foot Yuu clutched his injured appendage in a death grasp, hissing through the pain. "FUCK!" He yelled.
Glancing up to glare at the person who opened the door, he opened his mouth to start yelling. "Hey! What's up-" He began before his mouth fell wide open, staring at the person in the doorway. Tentatively stepping forward, the strange stepped forward to cup the ravenette's face, white gloves gently caressing Yuu.
"Yu- Yuu-chan?" Mika said, sky blue eyes widening at the sight of his old friends. His eyes seemed to sparkle with barely contained happiness and excitement, a small smile starting to grow on his face for quite possibly the first time in years.
Yuu blanched as Mika ran forward, closing the distance between them through a tight embrace, practically squeezing Yuu to death as tears started to seep from the blonde's eyes, glimmering in the golden light of the room.
"Mika? Is- is that you?" Yuu replied, voice breaking and cracking as his own tears started to appear, his eyes watering. Squeezing Mika back with just as much force, he pressed his face against the taller boy's chest, his tears seeping into the pristine white uniform.
After what seemed like an eternity of holding each other Yuu looked up, tilting his head back to gaze into Mika's blue irises. 'He's taller than me now, by at least three inches!' Yuu thought, shivering at the stare he got back. Mika gently rested his forehead against Yuu's, breathing out a deep sigh that seemed to echo through the room.
"Welcome back, Yuu-chan." Mika whispered once.
