Chapter 3
"Kain, you wanted to see me?" said Kaetsukikko.
"Hai hahaoya. I have news. I asked Seiren and she responded. I believe that she gave us this information willingly, so that we will be on the look out for Kiryu Zero," said Kain his lips twitching.
"I wonder if they will get any leads," mused Kaetsukikko.
"If we did our jobs correctly, hahaoya, they will never find out, until the ball." Delight danced in Aido's eyes. Unable to help it, Kain smirked; it fitted his personality to smirk instead of smiling.
"I plan to enjoy this to the fullest. In fact dropping the information on them would prove to be a better revenge than exterminating them. Besides, extermination and killing do not agree with me. I told myself it was necessary, but I was lying to myself. From the start, I hated killing and hunting, but I was born into it, just as I am born into this position." Sadness began to creep into Kaetsukikko's voice.
"Hahaoya," said Aido softly. "We're here now. You don't have to be sad anymore."
"I know, I know, Ai-kun," said Kaetsukikko. "It hurts still…Time will help me heal."
"If you are feeling better I must tell you exactly what Seiren said. Apparently the villagers saw me set fire to the Kiryu mansion, after I brought all the books here and put them in the library. She said that they could not detect me because my scent and all disappeared. She said that they concluded that it was a Vampire that set the fire. They are very close to the truth, are they not?"
"Yes, the stakes are high," asked Kaetsukikko. "We have to be careful until the ball. Then…"
"What is it that you have on your mind?" asked Kain.
"It is convenient that the ball will be on All Hallows Eve. Make it a masquerade ball," said Kaetsukikko. "Please notify the invitees."
"Hai hahaoya," said Kain. He bowed and left.
"Hahaoya, tell me what you have in mind, onegai-shimasu!" cried Aido.
"Nothing yet," said Kaetsukikko. "I just want to do something drastic, but not harmful…" After a pause, "threats, public executions, serve for dinner…yes…I know what to do. Let us to bed. Sweet dreams, dear one." She kissed Aido on the forehead.
Doomedpassion: oh look at that…only one chapter…sigh…running dry on ideas.
