I screamed in pain once again as I woke up to that horrible feeling of liquid fire running through my veins. What the hell is happening to me? I opened my eyes … only I could barely see… Finally the pain stopped. I blinked a few times to clear my vision and immediately gasped in pain. Shit! And I thought my demon senses hurt when they activated! This hurt like hell! It was like a searing pain in my mind along with icy-hot daggers inside the skull.

I let my headache dull to a dull throb and opened my eyes slowly and looked around. I was by a campfire.

"D?" I called out, my voice hoarse and faint.

"Well.. looks like sleeping beauty's awake, D."

I sat up only to be gently pushed back down. I looked up and my eyes met with a pair of dark blue eyes. Suddenly I couldn't keep my gaze from D's throat as a fire-like burn in my throat started.

"You're thirsty…" I shivered as I heard a deep rumbling voice and momentarily looked up when his tantalizing scent hit my extremely sensitive nose and the burn in my throat became a raging fire. I let out a low growl.

"D.. G-get away….. p-please…. I don't want to hurt you…" I rasped as I tried to scoot myself back in order to get away from him. To my dismay he only pulled my head to his neck. I could no longer hold back as I felt my fangs sharpen and within one second I had my fangs embedded in his neck. I gulped greedily at his sweet, yet spicy blood. The burn slowly faded away and I pulled back to look up at him with sad mix-matched eyes.

"I'm sorry, D….. I didn't want to hurt you… "

" You couldn't help it… you are now an odd combination of things though…. A miko… a vampire… and a demon.. The question is…. What now? "

I looked down as those questions ran rampant through my mind. What now? But then another question ran through my mind.

"Why didn't you kill me?"

"Because he lo-" Came that annoying voice as it was silenced by D clenching his fist.

What? D? In love with me?! That made no sense in my mind… he rarely ever spoke to me…. I looked at D with confused eyes. His deep sapphires looked into my own unique eyes with a guarded expression. I blushed crimson and looked away quickly. I stared into the flames that crackled and popped as it devoured the wood slowly. Did I love D? I wasn't sure yet… Was I even ready to fall in love again? The last time I fell in love….. I winced at that thought and wiped at my face as I felt something wet on my cheeks… I was crying… I was so confused right now… I stared into the flames more intently and reached my hand into the flames…. They turned blue as I pulled my hand out in surprise and watched the flames that now danced along my skin, caressing it gently. The color brought more tears to my eyes though…. They reminded me of my little Shippo…

Would I ever be able to see him again? I will have to learn to control my blood-thirst if I were to ever see my family again.

"D?... How long was I ….. transforming?"

"3 weeks…"

"NANI?! 3 w-weeks?!"

"Hai."

I was mentally running around in my mind in a panic. 3 WEEKS?!

I groaned as I felt a migraine forming in my head.
