To my utter surprise and disbelief, I have successfully managed to complete another chapter that didn't take another couple of months to write.
Yep, i admit that of all my preferred STRAIGHT couples in Hitman Reborn, GokuderaxHaru is definitely my favorite. Actually I like her with almost anyone in the series except for Tsuna. Wierd....
Anyways unless a secret band of aliens abduct me and brainwash me into liking something else...or if I just get bored by my self...this story will PROBABLY (not 100% sure) end up as a GokuHaru story with probably a bit of onesided love for Haru?
And maybe a bit of bl references? (not so much that one would actually point at the screen and scream at my lousy attempts)...probably...
(Takes deep breath):
AriellaxCastral: Dude, you just sparked my endless imagination of Xanxus x Haru~! XD
x-MinRi-x : ahahah i liked the omake too. I finally got out of my writer's block, so prepare to be blinded by much GokuHaru love!!...after this chap. though...too much Hibari...
anyoneXHaru lover: Yeah... i was in a serious writer's block but now i think I'm over it. It might take a while for the chapters though :)
GoldenDragonClouds : ....I see you in school...what can i say -__-'.....ahaahah kidding XD!
Disclaimer: I own only my clothes and this computer. (screen cracks)....shit
Gokudera Hayato clenched his fists tightly. The girl, Haru, probably wouldn't make it through this day. That sadistic vampire rarely let his victims go unharmed. No, Hibari Kyouya would most likely rape her, or if she's not to his taste, torture her, and then rip her apart to pieces before devouring the leftovers like he did to all of his prey.
It wasn't fair for her, coming all the way here to visit her friends only to fall victim to Hibari's (and his) obsession.
"Gokudera-kun."
The gray-haired boy flinched at the easy-going familiarity of Kusakabe's tone.
Though Gokudera was always cautious against the usually stoic older man, Kusakabe never seemed to raise an eyebrow towards his direction; as if he didn't view Hayato as much of a threat. That bothered the once proud ex-vampire-hunter quite a bit, but he refused to show that he was miffed by the lack of attention.
"Kyoya-san is very pleased that you completed your mission successfully this time. He will consider giving you a reward after he is finished with the...goods." Hibari's subordinate informed, his sullen eyes revealing what would happen, or what has already happened.
To Hibari Kyoya, there were 2 types of human beings in life: The ones who begged for their life to be spared at the cost of another's...and the ones who were willing to sacrifice themselves for the ones they loved.
He would normally torture the 1st type, and sneer at the pitiful beings while listening to their pleas or cries before finishing them off in the most grotesque way possible. But he hated the apathetic ones who cared not for themselves. In reality, there was only one type of humans: the 1st type. Hibari would make humans of the 2nd type suffer even more, break more of their bones, have them scream in pain more until they revert back to the 1st category.
The trembling human girl in front of him was probably of the 1st category. Small and weak, and with amazingly soft brown eyes, it was hard to believe that such a weak herbivore, as Hibari would like to call those he considered weaker, could be the vessel of such tempting blood.
And yet, even Hibari himself could barely prevent his watering fangs from protruding from his mouth. The desire to fall into temptation and begin a bloody feeding frenzy was strong, especially because of the close proximity of the girl. Such a delicious scent...
With a slender finger, the pureblood gently touched her cheek out of curiosity. It was soft, as if untouched. As expected the skin immediately colored a light red and she flinched away from the touch, only to have the unwanted digit rubbing against her skin once more. The finger moved downwards to trace the outline of her reddening lips.
Hibari frowned and withdrew from her causing a relieved sight to escape from her assaulted lips. There was another scent mixed with hers, and he knew that it wasn't that of another mortal.
So the herbivore of a vampire did touch her. "I'll have to punish him again later," he breathed out silently to himself.
"E-excuse...me-"
The pureblood glanced sharply at the girl. So she still had the strength to speak? Perhaps she was of the 2nd type.
Haru nearly choked at the cold glare her kidnapper sent her as she felt waves of chills creep up her spine. "My blood tastes good to...vampires like you...right?" What was she saying? This would only shorten her time to live. Her death was unavoidable and she knew it. But, Haru could only hope that the others, namely Kyoko and Tsuna, were doing better her. If not...
Hibari raised an eyebrow quizzically as if he was a student who was asked a particularly obvious question by a University teacher. He refused to agree with her though. "And if it does?"
Haru clenched her fists and tried, unsuccessfully, to force the fear away. "You can have it...my blood I mean. I won't fight back."
Was this girl trying to make a deal with HIM? His eyes flooded with apparent disappointment. He preferred it when his food screamed. It was when they screamed for mercy, or for death, when he chose to sink his teeth in his prey to end their miserable life. But still...The pureblood glanced at the mortal; the determination in her brown orbs was genuine and Hibari wondered what they would look like filled with despair. "...and?"
Her statement was answered with a question, not a downright refusal. Perhaps this was good. "J-just...please...don't hurt Tsu...the Namimori citizens anymore. Haru was shaking by the time she finished her sentence and her throat refused to let out anymore words.
The girl really was serious in making a deal with him! He resisted the urge to laugh. "You're not in a position to make such a deal. What can you possibly offer that I cannot get by myself?"
To his obvious expectation and delight the once determined pools of brown immediately filled with angst. Such beautiful warm colors were more attractive when in pain. The sadistic vampire felt a dull scratching in his throat and remembered his thirst. Soon, it would all be over. The breathtaking sight was ephemeral and would soon be sullied with splashes of red. It was these times when Hibari was glad of being a pureblood gifted with the ability to read minds. He wanted to listen to those fleeting desperate thoughts that would soon race through her mind before fading away to oblivion....
Nothing.....Only pure white
Hibari frowned, the bloodlust fading away slightly. This time, he concentrated on the girl, searching for any cracks. None. He really couldn't read the mind of the weak human girl at all. Either that or the stupid girl really had nothing in her mind...how...curious.
There was a light thud as a pair of cold hands roughly picked her up and threw her back onto the bed. Even though she'd just promised not to, she couldn't help it; a yelp erupted from her lips and nails and teeth clawed and bit at her attacker, a bit ironic considering the situation.
Despite all the struggling it took less than a second before he easily managed to pin Haru's arms above her head with one hand while the other still traced the soft outline of her lips.
"So you're willing to give me your whole being to me in return for the safety of your pathetic herbivore friends?" He sneered. No one was that unselfish. Selfishness was a common factor throughout all humans and vampires alike. To willingly throw away her own life for the protection of others...what a joke.
"Yes." If it's for Kyoko, then yes...
Slap!
The sudden force of the stronger man's hand against her cheek roughly sent her head banging against the wall at the edge of the bed. Stars seemed to circle in front of Haru's eyes as she struggled to focus.
He pressed his lips against her wrist, marveling at the smooth flow of her life's essence. The skin was so delicate, like paper...no, like a flower petal. It was a wonder how Hayato managed to carry the girl without giving into desire.
No...he didn't. The scent of the grey-haired slave, though nearly gone by now, still remained. "I'll put your deal into consideration-"
There was a sharp jab against her earlobe, causing a gasp to escape from the assaulted victim. Her hands immediately reached to the throbbing area.
"An....earing" The heck? He hadn't bitten her...at least not yet. For a second there, she nearly breathed out a sigh of relief. That wouldn't have ended out well.
The metal was cold to the touch, mirroring Hibari's. Her shaking fingers could barely make out the form of a cross, with several designs etched into the silver. She tugged at it and a huge jolt of pain followed, causing her hand to immediately withdraw from her stinging ear.
The surprised and slightly pained look on the girl's face was priceless that the black-haired pureblood couldn't help smirking. He especially liked the pained expression. It suited the girl."It would certainly be a shame to drain everything away at once." A finger reached out and caressed the loose locks of hair that escaped from her hair tie in mock gentleness.
"W-what?" Perhaps she didn't hear clearly. Her ears were still ringing from the sudden pain and her eyes were still blurred from the earlier slam to the wall.
The pureblood vampire growled in annoyance. "Are you deaf? Or perhaps stupid? You will remain here as my own personal little pet until your blood no longer interests me." A hand was brought to her gaping mouth as he ran her tongue along a vein on her wrist. As expected, this only strengthened the burning in his throat.
Pet? There was a long awkward silence. Then...
"Eh?!"
Another jab, this time on the wrist. For a split second, a feeling of numbness washed over Haru and she distinctly wondered if it was another unwanted piercing. Then, a wave of pain so immense that she couldn't even bring herself to scream overcame the feeling of void emptiness.
She threw her head back in agony, but sound refused to exit her throat and her eyes flooded immediately with tears, the pain of the probably concussion and earring long forgotten. Was this how Hana felt before she died?
Almost instantly, however, the pain was washed away, and a different sensation overcame the pained girl. The room started to spin, or maybe she was the one spinning. It was impossible to tell in the darkness. Her panting breath grew ragged as her free hand clenched on to the blankets even tighter.
The flaming liquid flowed down his throat with ease. Hibari could actually feel the color in his black eyes turning a tinge of golden yellow, the color a vampire's eyes would turn into when he/she was content.
A trickle of blood flowed between past his lips and down the side of her arm. He eagerly lapped it up, refusing to let a single drop go to waste.
A glance at the human...He smirked. Just as all of his previous prey, she seemed to react the same way. Perhaps his inability to read her mind wasn't anything important. It would be troublesome to overreact because of some insignificant human.
Her breath quickened. A drop of sweat tricked down her cheek almost in the form of a tear.
Maybe it was a tear. The sight was almost sensual.
And then she fainted, the initial resistance completely faded away.
Hibari sighed in disappointment, forcing himself to break away reluctantly. A little more taken away and the human would've died.
The girl was definitely the 2nd type. Willing to sacrifice herself for the lives of her...friends? Bullshit.
The scent of blood was still strong in the air. He would need to heal the wound before any more was wasted.
"What's this?"
The mark that he'd left, it had been quite deep. Even with his treatment, it would still require around a week for it to completely fade away.
But this....
It didn't even smell new. In fact, the wound seemed as if it were already several days old...already in the process of healing.
Author's note: I had this chapter written out a while ago...but for some reason, it was really hard to type it out...eheheh....
Reborn Omake: Captured
DBSG: So how are you feeling, now that you're finally in the lair of the vampire who wanted to kill you and drink all of your blood, Haru?Haru: Just a little bit anxious and curious. But it turned out to be okay. He even gave me an earing! I wonder if we'll be friends.
DBSG:....that was sarcasm wasn't it...
Haru: Yep. Does the word 'Shit' answer your question?
Gokudera: I don't want to hear that from you! I didn't even come out that much in this chapter!
Haru: Maybe it's because you've been demoted to a side character.
Gokudera: (bursts with incoherent angry noises)
Hibari: I have it the worst. I play an evil sadistic psycho who is addicted to SM play...I didn't even get to use my stash of handcuffs and candles! Stupid girl, why'd you faint so quickly?! on second thought...(grins evilly) we're here now, aren't we?
Gokudera: Everybody run! Hibari reverted back into sadistic mode! He-
