===Yami pov===
Red luquid covered the tiled floors, staining the pure white floors. My eyes sadden at the sight…it was just like when Yugi was in his first stage of his pregnancy but this…it seemed worse. I turned back to the bedroom, where I saw Alfie holding a whimpering Danny. The smaller one looked pale and thin, Alfie looked at me for help.
"Where's Akula?" he asked
"He's on his way…" I said softly
"Alfie…it hurts…it hurts too much" Danny whimper
"I know love, the doctor will be here soon." He said
A soft knock was heard at the front door, Alfie nodded to me and I nodded back. I left the bedroom and answered the front door. Akule was standing there, I moved aside and let him in.
"Where is Danny?" he asked
"This way." I said
I lead him over to the bedroom, Alfie looked Akula with some relief. The doctor began to exam Danny, I leaned against the wall and watched. Suddenly I felt my pocket vibrated, I checked it to see it was my phone. I had gotten a text message from Yugi, he asked if Danny was ok, he also said that Cat was worried sick.. I texted him back saying we would know soon.
I looked back at Danny, Akula checked his pulse. He sighed heavily and pushed the bridge of his glasses up.
"I need Danny to come with me to the bathroom for a moment…" he said
"Oh…alright, Yami can you help please" Alfie said
"Of course." I said
Alfie careful helped Danny sit up, I stood by Danny's side and lifted him off the bed gently. Danny covered his mouth and coughed up more blood. My eyes sadden, Alfie picked up Danny and lead him to the bathroom, Akula followed them.
"I need both you and Yami to be in the other room. I need to do a few tests." He said
"Is it necessary?" Alfie asked
"Yes, I will be as quick as I can." He said
Alfie hesitated for a moment, I placed my hand on his shoulder I nodded my head gentle. Alfie sighed heavily, we walked over to the living room. Alife sat down on the couch and sighed heavily, he ran a hand through his hair.
"I am worried Yami." He said
"I know but, Danny is strong I'm sure he will make it through. The first part of the pregnancy is always the hardest." I said
"..How did you hold it together when Yugi was going through the first part of his pregnancy." He asked
"It was hard…I was scared and I didn't know what was happening. But I stayed with Yugi, for better or worse I will always be by his side." I said
"You love him very much don't you." He said
"I do, he means the world to me." I said
"I know the feeling, Danny…he was unlike any human I've ever seen. He is so strong and kind…I knew I had to cherish the moments of his humanity. But, when he asked me to change him to one of us…I was afraid…if anything were to happen to him…I would most likely lose my mind." He said to me
I placed my hand on his shoulder and smiled gently at him. The red eye vampire slowly smiled back at me. He leaned back into the smiled even more.
"I hope Danny has a girl or even a boy, it would be really great if he had triplets." He said
"Wouldn't that be hard work?" I chuckled softly
"Yes but, it would nice to have a big family" he answered happily
We turned our heads to see Akula standing by the door way, Alfie got up and went over to the doctor. His smile faded away once when he saw the sadden look on the doctor's face.
"Is there something wrong doctor?" he asked
"Alfie…I need you to sit down…" he said
"Akula…" he said
I got up from the couch and walked over to Alfie, the doctor sighed heavily. He looked at Alfie with straight face.
"Alfie…I am sorry to say but…your mate is dyeing" he said sadly
Alfie eyes widen, I stared at the doctor with shock. A moment passed Alfie grabbed the doctor by the collar of his jacket and slammed him hard against the wall. A harsh growl came passed the red eyed vampire's lips.
"What do you mean he is dying? You are a doctor, you are supposed to help him." He growled
"I did everything in my power to help him but, he is too far into his pregnancy to be saved." The doctor explained
"There must be something you can do Akula." I said
"There is nothing I can do." He said sadly
"Liar, there is something you can do." Alfie hissed
"…there are two things you can do for your mate…" he said
"And what are they?" Alfie growled
"The first…the less painful way…is for your mate to go into the sunlight…" he said
"That would kill him, there has to be another way." I said
"There is but…it's the worst choice…" he said
"I don't care…I will do anything for Danny." Alfie said
"…please understand this is there are only two ways for your mate…Let Danny take his own immortal life…it's the worst choice…if this continue Danny will tear himself apart in order to be freed of the pain he is feeling." He said
"Those are the only two, they both result with Danny's death. I don't want Danny to die, he has to survive…he just has too" Alfie said coming close to tears
"I'm sorry Alfie…I really do wish there is more I can do but, I can't. As vampires we traded our humanity for immortally, in the process we lose our chance to continue our line of blood. It is rare for vampires to continue the line, and if we do try to continue that line we will only receive death that is far worse. A vampire will claw at his or her own body until they have clawed out their own heart until they have died…that is the price we pay for trying to continue our line" He said sadly
"Please there just has to be a way…Danny can't die…he just can't" Alfie cried
His grip on Akula loosen, he slowly sunk to the floor and cried into his hands. I was about to comfort him but, the doctor stood in my way. I looked at him but, he only shook his head and looked behind him. Danny weakly held the wall, slowly he made his way over to Alfie. He hugged the crying vampire, Alfie hugged back Danny tightly and cried on his shoulders.
"Please Danny, you can't." he cried softly
"Alife…it's ok. You don't have to cry." Danny said softly
"But…" he sobbed
"Akula explained everything to me…Alfie when I was human you knew I was going to die someday. But then I asked you to change me…I thought I would get to stay with you until the end of time. Now we face that I will die…I know this will be hard but, I am happy I had the chance to spend so many years with you. There are still so many things I wanted to do with you, I wanted to Caleb grow up, I wanted to see Cat raise Hikira, and most of all I wanted to carry your babies." He said
"Danny…I don't know what I would do without you." Alfie cried softly
"Please be strong, you will have to help raising Caleb and Hikira. And you will have to keep my sister strong, you know how emotionally she gets." Danny said
"…ok…I will do my best." Alfie sniffed
Danny looked up at me and smiled weakly, I gently smiled back at him, then it slowly faded…the doctor placed a hand on my shoulder. I looked at him, he motioned me to step outside.
"Let's give them a few moments to themselves." He said
"Of course." I said softly
I stepped outside of the apartment, Akula was right behind me. I looked around the night was half gone, the sky had been covered with dark clouds. It was probably going to rain very soon. I leaned against the wall and sighed heavily, this…this is all taking a turn for the worse…I looked at Akula, the doctor take out a cigarette from his pocket. He then lit with a match, he took a deep breath of the cigarette and breathed out the smoke.
"Akula." I said
"Yes, Yami. Is there something on your mind?" he asked
"…how many have tried to continued their lined and survived?" I asked
"Very few, I've been a doctor for a long time now and I have seen this situation many times. To be honest Yami there are more deaths then there is life." He explained
"Then why were Yugi and I so lucky to have our own children?" I asked
"I don't know, I am still testing on how vampires can continue their line without dyeing…so far I had no luck." He said
I remained silent, I looked back at the apartment. Alfie must be heart wrecked….how will he stand to lose his love one while I had mine survived and give me a family. I was taken away from my thoughts when the door opened. I looked to see Alfie with empty eyes…my eyes sadden.
"Danny has decide on what he wants to do." He said
"What does he want to do…" I asked
"…he wants to see the sun rise…" he said softly
"I understand…what do I tell the others?" I asked
"Tell them to meet us at the beach in an hours…I know a place where we can do this quietly." He said
"Should I explain what is going to happen…?" I said
"No…Danny wants to tell them himself" he said
"I will stay here for the moment, I will do my best to keep Danny calm." Akula said
I nodded my head gently, I went to my car and drove back to my home. My mind was flooded with questions and confusions. If vampires were never to supposed to have children…then why would Yugi and I to be so fortunate to have our own…is that why the demon…wants to kill them…because we were never meant to have Heba and Kiley…I sighed heavily and noticed that I was coming up to my home. I parked in the drive way. I sighed once more…this isn't going to be easy to explain.
Slowly I got out of the car and went inside, I saw Yugi and Cat holding Heba and Kiley in the living room. Dark was feeding Hikira, they looked up at me and smiled.
"Hey Yami, did my brother eat to much junk food again." Cat said
"…no…listen we need to leave and meet Danny and Alfie at the beach." I said
"Why, are they planning to have a party or something?" Dark said
"No, Dark I need you to stay here and watch the little ones for us." I said
"Yami you are starting to scare me. What is going on?" Yugi asked
"I can't explain here, Cat I need you to grab a jacket." I said
"Yami what's wrong, please tell us." Cat said
"…everything will be explained when we get there." I said
They looked at me with worry…I put my hands in my pockets and looked away. Yugi and Cat went to tuck in the twins while Dark stayed with me.
"Something is going on isn't it." She said
"…yes…" I answered
"…please make sure Cat will be ok…" she said
"I will do my best." I said
Cat and Yugi came back, I nodded my head and lead them outside to the car. They got in, I started the car and drove off to the beach. Cat tapped her nails against her lap, she looked worried…My eyes sadden even more…I slowly came to a stop when I spotted Alfie's car. I turned off the car, we got out.
We arrived at a secluded beach area, very few people would come here. It sound be good enough for what will happen. Cat spotted Danny and Alfie sitting on the beach, she rushed over to them. I was about to follow until Yugi grabbed the back of my shirt.
"I thought we agreed on no more secrets." He said
"It's not a secret….Yugi…Danny is dying." I said softly
"Oh gods…but how…why?" he asked
"…remember what happen to you a few months." I said
"I was pregnant with the twins. What does that have to do with Danny?" He asked
"…Danny is dying because he is pregnant." I said sadly
We were broken away when we heard cry in sadness, I looked down at my feet and bit my lap. Cat began crying loudly, I bit my lip harder causing it to bleed. Yugi hugged me tightly, I hugged him back just as tightly.
"It's not fair Yugi, we shouldn't be the only ones that can have young ones." I said
"…I know it is unfair but…we are lucky…I'm heartbroken to hear what is happening with Danny, I really wish there is some way he could have babies just like me." He said
A few tears left my eyes, Yugi looked up at me and wipped them away. He smiled sadly at me, I slowly smiled back at him. We walked to the others, Cat and Danny embraced each other tightly, Alfie looked at us then back at Danny. Akula stood behind them and watched as what was going on. Cat whimpered and sobbed in Danny's arms.
"Shhhh its ok sis, Alfie is going to help with everything." Danny said
"But." She sniffed
"No buts, I know you are strong sis. You have to be to take care of Hikira and to keep Dark in place." He said
"…could you always still look out for me." She sniffed
"Of course, what kind of brother would I be if I didn't" he said as he coughed up some blood
Danny cleaned the tears from Cat's face, Cat tore off a piece of her shirt and cleaned up the blood. Danny smiled weakly and looked at Yugi.
"Hey Yugi, doesn't this place remind you of the day we spent on the beach many years ago." He said
"Yeah it does…it was a great day for me." Yugi said
"It's good to hear that. I wished we could have done it again." Danny said
"Me too…" Yugi said softly
"The sun will rise in a few minutes." Akula said
"…You guys need to be covered." I said
"…alright." Alfie said dully
Cat put on her jacket, face mask, sunglasses and gloves, while Alfie put on a hooded cloak, Akula placed a motorcycle helmet on. I held Yugi's hand tightly. Danny slowly and weakly stood up, Alfie helped him onto his feet. Danny began to slowly walk towards the water, the first colors of the day began to show.
"Hey guys." Danny said
We all looked at Danny sadly, Cat coming close to crying again. Alfie squeezed Danny's hand tightly. Yugi walked over to Danny and held his hand gently.
"I thought of some things…just because we have immortality doesn't means we can live forever. I want you guys to do me a forever…please live life as your last day…because you will never know when it is…That is all I ask, don't cry for me. I want you guys to be happy, maybe someday we will be reunited again." He said
"Danny, we love you." Cat said
"And I love you all too, especially you Alfie. If I had a second life I would chose to spend it with you." Danny said softly
"And I would as well." Alfie cried softly
Danny looked ahead at the rising sun, he smiled gently as the first rays began to show.
"It's been so long since I felt the sun, I almost forgot how warm it felt." He said
As the rays of light touched Danny's skin, he began to turn to dust. Alfie held Danny tightly, Cat ran and hugged Danny just as tightly. The sun came out of the ocean, with only a few second Danny was turned to ask. Nothing was left but, a small bright gem. We all stared at the gem confused. Akula picked up the gem carefully then, handed it to Alfie.
"Danny was a good vampire, all that remains now is this gem. This gem shows the beautiful heart he had" he said
Alfie held the gem gently, he fell to his knees and cried on the gem. We hugged the red eye vampire and wept with him.
===another pov===
I watched as a group of people sobbed in each other's arms. My eyes widen in shock, the other boy earlier…he just turned to dust when the sun touched him. A large smirked spread across my face…it all makes sense. They are the immortal dead, vampires…And they are mine for the taking.
