Murasakibara Staggered into the inn, holding his leg as the blood dripped down, "I see you were unsuccessful" Akashi watched as his old friend took a seat at the table in the kitchen, "Tell me what you know Murasakibara" Akashi took a seat across from him crossing his legs.

"We found him…. You were right he was staying at Aomine's" Murasakibara picked up some food on the table and tor off a piece of the chicken, "Though…. there is something off about that redhead. I heard Aomine call him Kagami"

Akashi smiled devilishly and began to laugh, "You mean to tell me that the man who I fought with the other night is the legendary Lion of Seirin, oh this is to good hahahaha" Akashi pretended to wipe a tear of joy away from his eyes. "What has it been three years…?"

"You know this man Akashi" Murasakibara asked stuffing his face

"DO I KNOW HIM…. I am the reason he hunts our kind" Akashi's gaze hardened "I had heard of a man strong enough to take down an army single handed and decided to pay him a little visit, spreading rumors about a there being a spy from the neighboring army hiding out in the town not too far away in hopes of drawing him out, and lucky me I did. He came by the town with only his lieutenant, who might I say was extremely delicious, and found me feeding, his strength was impressive but no match for me, and right then and there, with him lying on the floor unable to defend his dear friend I bled him dry in front of his eyes" Smiling triumphantly Akashi looked over to his left where two woman sat in the corner, bounded and gaged, "Take your pick I had my fill earlier" he licked his lips

"So then why didn't you recognise him the other night?" Murasakibara questioned as he walked over to the brunet picking her up by the arm and dragging her to the doorway

"I had though he had died from his wounds those three years ago, but from what I can tell and tasted and from what you have told me, he is no ordinary man. He might just be worth turning to see just how strong he truly is." Akashi turned to Murasakibara

"You mean kind of like what you did to Aomine?" Murasakibara smirked

"That was simply out of fun…. I just wanted to see what he would do after turning and… though the ending was a letdown" Akashi walked out of the room making his way to the bedrooms, "Don't have too much fun Murasakibara, try and leave her in one piece…. Oh and by the way, have you invited the others for the Ball?"

"Yes all are coming"

Kagami sat in the tub sorting through his thoughts, what had just happened, he… he had kissed Aomine…. A vampire… the very thing he hated, the very thing he wanted to kill and it…. It felt good. Looking at his wrist where Aomine had sucked his blood and remembering the heat that ran through his body at the feeling of those fangs caused him to blush a deep red, splashing his face to force himself to forget he lowered himself a little lower in the bath so the water was covering his mouth…. I'm sorry Kuroko….

Aomine watched Kagami as he took his bath, he brushed his fingers across his lips remembering the feeling of those soft and tender lips pressed agents his. What was he doing, way did he save him…. Damn the moment that he saw Murasakibara going in for the kill his body acted on its own, and not giving him the most pleasant of results, receiving a blade through the chest luckily missing his heart, he's never protected anyone other than…. Her… maybe the thought of losing someone who so much resembled the fight and spirit of her caused his body to move on its own… Turning away Aomine made his way down the hall to room at the far end of the house, taking a key out from his pocket and placing it in the lock he entered the room.

So what was he going to do now, should he stay, after all he was a hunter, there was no way he could stay with a vampire. Sighing he made his way to the kitchen to cook himself something before heading off to bed when the bell rang, "OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD WHO THE HELL IS AT THE DOOR AT THIS TIME OF NIGHT" Kagami made his way to the door and looked through the peephole. Kise standing there with someone else, opening the door Kagami looked down at Kise.

"Is Aomine here…. I really need to talk to him" Kise peered into the house, the man standing next to him was facing the other way, he seemed a taller than Kise with a bigger build.

"And I need to talk to you… The other day when you stopped by, why where you certain it was a vampire" the other man turned his head to listen to the conversation.

"I'm an investigator it's my job"

"Yes I get that but why tell Aomine? What is your connection to him" Kise looked at Kagami confused, "I know"

Kise's eyes widened and that's when the other man turned around, lowering his hood, his eyes green covered by glasses, his hair short and green as well, "Well if you know please let us in" the man stared down Kagami, eyes looking him over, calculating his power.

"Bakagami way are you standing there with the door open, who's ther-"

"Hello Aomine" the green haired man said pushing aside Kagami, who in turn gave him a threatening look, "We need to talk"

Aomine glared back "Medorima….. This way" Aomine turned and left the hall with Medorima heading for the living room. Kagami turned to Kise which looked up at him.

"Fallow me Kagami, I'll explain everything" Kagami reluctantly fallowed Kise outside closing the door behind him. "So if you know that Aomine is a vampire I'm sure you're wondering if I am too, am I correct?" Kise kept walking, back to Kagami heading for the fountain in front of the house, taking a seat and turning his gaze to Kagami. "Well?" Kise patted on the stone next to him to take a seat, Kagami just stood crossing his arms and staring down Kise. "ah… fine them"

"Are you one as well" Kagami studied Kise keeping his distance,

"Yes…"

"How old" Kagami questioned

"Hey now you know that not a nice thing to ask" Kise pouted

"I said how old" Kagami's gaze never wavering

"102…" Kise answered embarrassed, "Look if you're going to ask me questions ask me important ones I'm a little self-conscious about my age here…."

Scratching the back of his neck Kagami looked to the side "Sorry…"

"It's fine… Look Kagami I'm going to be straight with you, we've come here tonight because you're in danger. There have been a lot of vampires on the move lately, and not the nice ones like me, Medorima and Aomine."

"You call Aomine nice?" Kagami laughed slightly

"Ok… in his case may be less so but we aren't like the others, we don't kill humans, sure we drink blood but we never leave them unsatisfied…"

Kagami blushed remembering the feeling of Aomine's fangs, the feeling of his hands wrapped around him, and taste of his kiss.

"And I'm guessing"

"Don't even go there" Kagami snapped

"Ok OK OK" Kise smirked "Anyways like I was saying, there is a group that I mentioned this morning remember?" Kagami shook his head "Well they refer to themselves as The True Ones, they are dead set on turning every murderer, rapist and criminal into vampires, they are growing an army to take over this country and it just so happens that you my friend pissed off the leader."

"Let me guess Akashi… If you're going to say him, I already know. We got a visitor tonight named Murasakibara I think"

"So then you know that Akashi has his sights set on you. He's somewhere in town and I wouldn't put it past him being the one that killed that family."

Kagami's eyes widened, Kise had shown up earlier with a blade that belonged to him, saying that the murderer left it behind, so it was… him….. "Let him come then… I have business to settle with him"

"Kagami I don't think you understand… this guy isn't a normal vampire, he's one of the first, a pure blood, he isn't easy to kill, in fact I don't know of anything that can kill him, trust me many have tried and every time it ends in vein… Some winding up getting for in the process" Kise's look softened, "Some people lost everything, trying to kill Akashi…."

"I'm guessing you know someone"

"Yes…. He lives here" Kise looked up at Kagami then to the house.

Kagami sat down next to Kise not caring if he was a vampire or not anymore. "You mean Aomine… don't you"

"Yes…. Akashi did horrible things to Aomine… but nothing as bad as what he made him do…" Kise stared at the ground lacing his fingers, "I'm sure you know when a human is turned into a vampire they have to feed right away be it human or vampire blood or they become very week and unable to control their blood thirst…."

"Yes… Kise what happened to Aomine"

"I don't think it's my place to tell you… but I know that Aomine will never speak of this… I was a lieutenant in the army over 100 years ago, and we had just received a new crop of young men ready and willing to fight, they were strong but none as strong as Aomine. Every man that came to the army where mostly accompanied by their family. He however only had his sister, who was his life and reason for fighting; he wanted so desperately to protect her." Stopping he took a deep breath. "On a mission to destroy one of the enemies strong holds everything went wrong and I only heard of it two day later, most of the men were killed, all bled dry, and I knew then that It was vampires. Everyone was accounted for except Aomine, who we presumed had been taken hostage… if only it was that… Apparently while we were away from our base they had entered, killing everyone they could… and Aomine…. Turns out Akashi had turned him into a vampire… but didn't let him feed so the process was never completed… What he was waiting for was to capture his sister… and capture her he did… Aomine was strong, controlling his thirst while Akashi had locked him in a cellar with her."

"Don't tell me…." Kagami covered his mouth in fear dreading what Kise was about to say.

Hope everyone is enjoying the store! SO what do you think will happen, did Aomine do what Kagami thinks he did? Next Chapter The Ball
