Hello! Back from a short hiatus break… well not a break, but the school days coming and going by as I at least have a break now. But thankfully, I have time, so time for me to shut up and recap the story.

Last time on Demonic Love; Killua faced his older brother, Illumi, on a one on one match in the final phase. Grace soon realized that the ex-assassin gained a power from Grace's, aka, Elizabeth's, big brother, Dracula to fight each other. Killua won with flying color. After that, Dracula soon remembered something when the two were little children. What will happen next?

Grace's POV

Everyone decided to take another break right now. I don't blame them, but everyone has been mind-boggled by a hell ton of info that not even a demon can handle. I don't know where the guys are at. I am walking in the halls of this hotel. It is said to be a private one since it belongs to the Hunter's Association. Not many people are around here unless they're Hunters or participants taking the exam, so I can just walk down here with peacefully and quietly.

Hm…? Footsteps…? I sense a Nen from one of the Examiners. Who is it? Menchi, Satotz, or Lippo? And there's someone with them as well. Who could it be?

I turned on my En and to feel around me… it could be another Hunter or something, but the Chairman said that no one else is here for the time being, so who is it? The examiners…?

"She has to be around here somewhere." A voice said. By the tone… it's Lippo… but who is he with…?

A groan… wait…. I know that high voice. I looked at the corner and saw… it couldn't be. "Oh c'mon! You told me she's-"

"FIONA?!" I just… what?! How?! WHY?!

She smiled in front of me and ran towards me at full speed. The next thing I knew I was in her embrace… While in Lala Land of my mind, many factors are working, but malfunctioning because… WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING HERE?! Did Lippo just released her as if nothing?! Did she bailed out for some reason? Can someone tell me what the hell's happening! Ok… I have to admit. It's nice to see her too. I shouldn't let these thoughts run in my head a million miles a minute. I closed my eyes and hugged her.

"Hey!" She soon let go of me and gave me a cheerful smile. But there is a question I would like her to answer though. "I know we just saw each other about two weeks, but it seems a ton of things are happening here."

Ok… now to load her with the all of the questions… but one at a time… just don't let panic mode kick in. "Fiona? How did you get out of prison?"

She gave a… an evil giggle… don't tell me she hypnotized Lippo. Her evil giggle turned into a gentle smile. "Simple," she said. "I simply gave Lippo treats."

Three, two, one… anime fall. Was it really that easy for her to get out there? Geez, some defense on that part. Lippo, you are slowly, but surely, losing all respect from me. What type of prison warden do that? Just let them go after a snack?

"Alright then…" I sighed. Time for my next question. "How did you knew of the situation at hand? And why are you doing here since you're free?"

She looked down. Huh? Her smile is… saddened. Why? "I told her what's happening. Even the fact that you're the vampire princess." Lippo answered. Does that mean she's…? "And she wanted to come to your support."

That's… Fiona… I knew you were a good person at heart. You just needed to try, right?

"It's because even though I committed all of those crimes, you still had the will to forgive me. No one would've forgiven me." Tear. Fiona, there's no need to cry. "And when I heard you were a vampire, I wanted to tell you that I will still be there for you!"

I nodded. "So will I Fiona! So will I!"

I heard Lippo giggle. I guess Fiona did too because we turned to give him a confused look. "I'm going to have a meeting with the others. You can take your time having fun." We looked at each other and then shrugged it off. It was weird to even bother.

"So I wanted to ask you about the status with the others." She paused with an awkward face. But then asked, "I mean, any progress in any way?"

What should I tell her? I mean, a lot has happened, and most of them has been overwhelming. Ok. I started after the 50 hour of our waiting. To put it simply, she was shocked. I told her what happened when Kurapika flipped out on me. That even shocked me when I saw him go crazy out of nowhere. Then I told her how Gon and Killua wasn't affected by her spell. I saw her eyes widen in astonishment, and she made the same assumption that it's probably because they knew my real name and the others knew of 'Sennosuke', not Grace. I rather stick with that name because even though I acknowledge Dracula of being my brother, I want to be the present me.

She soon told me about the Nen she uses. She sensed my aura. She wanted me to find clues if I could break it with my Nen, but everyone knows that… well… Nen users know that you need exorcists to rid of Nen, or the person has to have a strong heart. But I betted her in about what happened on the Fourth Phase. She was shocked alright. The way I describe the way Kurapika confessed to me… She got excited… I mean… teenage school excited when they heard about the girl's first crush. To be all honest, I thought she would act a bit more rationally, not this childish… but I'm childish sometimes, so I should shut up.

She loaded me with question, after question, after about my feelings. I did… told her everything. My feelings towards him. His good qualities. His knowledge, his passion, his pride (though he can tone it down a bit), and most of all, the way he's concern for others… but I did mention he did have some bad ones as well… how he closes off everyone around him, his cold heart, the way he wanted revenge, not telling everyone what's wrong…

We were now in the food court. I got a chocolate roll with a whipped cream filling and tea. Black British, always my favorite. Fiona has a mille feuille with a Blue Moon. And… though there's a delicious dessert in front of me… I'm getting really mad about the way he thinks. "Any other bad qualities?"

GGGGRRRR! "The way he thinks he's all high and mighty! A stubborn fool if you ask me! He lets his emotions get the best of him. Yeah, emotions can guide you, but he is such a hot headed idiot! You can tell how his eyes is normal one minute, then scarlet the next! THAT HOTHEADED IDIOT!"

… Wait a minute… we're in a café… though no one is here, I still need some common curtesy. Unlike that-

"Who's the hotheaded idiot?" Um… I looked behind me and I didn't want to see a certain blonde here.

In the Meeting Hall

"You know Lippo." Said the Chairman of the Hunter Association. The Mohawk headed examiner looked at Netero. "Fiona isn't just known for being a heartbreaker, but also, at the age of 12, she was a porn star and is knowledgeably in taking pictures of… quote on quote sexy moments, right?"

Lippo then gave a little giggle at that thought. How one would react is one to be behold. I laughed, "I know… but she already started her plan."

"Hm?" Menchi hummed, dumbfounded. "What do you mean?"

The four eyes gave a hearty laugh after that. Everyone is beyond confused at that point and calmed down. He soon explained, "She called it… Operation: Get the Lover Back."

Back in the café

"KURAPIKA!?" the vampire jumped out of her seat and now standing. By the look on his face, he is a very irritated man right now, seeing the tick mark on his head. He glared at her and gave you-better-explain look. She soon glared at him this time, and this time, the red eyes vampire is angry. "That's right, you're such a hothead! Letting your emotions doing all the talking, being a cold-hearted, and not being able to let anyone's emotions get to you!"

"And what's wrong with that?!" He yelled, his eyes turning scarlet. Fiona looked at the situation awkwardly, thinking that maybe what she was thinking isn't something to behold of. "I never met an insolate vampire in my life!"

"Well excuse me… this vampire was the first one you fell for and met at the same time you idiot!" She screamed in his face. "SCARLET FREAK!"

"BLOOD HEAD!"

"GIRLY BOY!"

"AIRHEADED TOMBOY!"

"PRETTY KURUTA!"

"STOP IT YOU TWO!" The two looked at the once prisoner with confused looks. She let out a sigh of relief since the two stopped fighting. Yeah, she's new to all the friendly thing and that can lead to being very childish, but what should she say. They were being more childish than anything. Now… for her plan. "That's right. Kurapika. I want you talk to you for a moment."

He stared at her suspicious, but then Grace put her hand on the Kuruta's shoulder. He turned to let her see his silver eyes. With gentle red, she nodded. He sighed, knowing that he can trust her. The vampire left the room and let the two alone, with Fiona plastered on an evil smirk on her visage. He doesn't even like the idea. She's the reason why they… well… Kurapika and Leorio to hate Grace. He wasn't happy with hating his lover, so this has to be good excuse.

The blonde female sighed. She looked at the last survivor. Her eyes were gentle and doesn't have the faintest of taint into it. "Listen… I want to talk to you about something. What are your feelings for Grace?"

Kurapika looked down. He easily explained, "A girl that doesn't know how to keep her mouth shut, a very stubborn girl, but…" He paused for a minute. It's like he doesn't want to admit it to her, yet again. The vampire princess trusts her… so it seems he doesn't have a choice, does he? "But… she's a very kind hearted person. She devoted her life to protect her friends and accepts the good and the bad in everything. She's so warm to be with and…"

He couldn't stop… something isn't stopping him. Probably Fiona's spell again, but it didn't matter. He just allowed Fiona to make his heart sing out what his thoughts are. "She cries the sadness people locked up for ages. It's like… once she knows that person, she somehow is able to shed the tears the person is longing to shed. And… even though Grace is willing to accept all pain and suffering… I want to protect her from all of it."

"Yes… she is childish. Grace is in fact stubborn, but the way she looks at you, it feels as if any worries from within just lifted off of your shoulders. The way she you look through her eyes makes things incredible. No matter how good or bad it is."

Fiona soon clapped her hands as if a hypnotist snapped their patient out of trance. "That's good. So far, my plan is working!" Kurapika look at her with a strange one, but then she has this picture where the white side of it is facing him. Her smirk never ceased. So she handed it to him.

…

Silence…

More silence…

Three…

Two…

One…

Soon as he comprehend what's one it, his nose shot blood out of it; spraying the floor with red fluid. His face completely red and flabbergasted. "W-w-w-w-w-w-when d-d-did you take… this p-photo." He stuttered.

"Secret…" She answered with a Cheshire Cat smile. "I can't believe her boobs are bigger than they seem when I looked at it. A gift to you… Oh, it's also one of a kind, so don't lose it."

With that, she left the café while Kurapika stayed there, still in shocked and carefully looked at the photo. 'I better keep this so no pervert would look at it. Yeah, that's the reason.'

What the hell is going on the Kuruta's mind people?! What the heck did Fiona took a picture of that made the stoic, complex, and prideful Kurapika nose bled. Find out next time. BYE!
