"This took too long omfg ;-;"
Konnichiwa minna! This is le Chapter 8 of the stories!
By the way, the poll regarding whether this series is going to be a trilogy or not should still be going on until I post up chapter 9 or 10 since by then I would have started on the last few chapters. And the reason behind this is because the endings is going to be much different if you guys want a trilogy to the 'Vampiric' series.
Ok enough talk this is a story not a blog god damnit...

Chapter 8
"Relax," one said. "You'll thank me later..."
Soon, yelps and shrieks were heard within the room, but the noises suddenly decreased to moans as the victims got dizzier. As they slumped over each other unconsciously, the awake ones smirked.
"Now what?"
"We train," the first one spoke.
"Our new friends."
:~:
Fuji Syuusuke and Yukimura Seiichi woke up with a jolt, gasping for breath.
"Nightmare?" Yukimura breathed.
"A horrible one," gasped Fuji.
"Fujiko, nya?"
A redhead peeked in through the open door, and widened it to reveal himself and a grey-ish white hair trickster looking worried.
"Are you two okay?" Niou Masaharu asked.
"You two were panicking, nya..." muttered Kikumaru Eiji.
The two vampires looked at their connections at immediately felt bad for them. They had momentarily forgotten that their friends were able to feel how their connected vampire was at any moment.
"Gomen, Eiji." Fuji apologised.
"It's only nightmares, Niou," Yukimura looked at the trickster. "Don't worry about us."
The two humans looked at each other, as if they were trying to find an answer from each other. "Okay," Eiji sighed. "If you need us just call us."
"Piyo." Niou agreed as he closed the door behind him, leaving the vampires alone.
Silence befell on the two, but not when Fuji broke it by saying, "You don't think it's anything important, do you?"
Yukimura, still lost in thoughts, said, "Unless it's because of Genichirou and Tezuka..."
"What?" Fuji snapped his attention towards his friend. "How can it be them?"
The raised voice of Fuji broke Yukimura out of his thoughts and flustered, he replied, "Iie... that's not what I meant, Syuusuke."
The demigod then heard a sigh, and looked at the tensai. "Syuusuke?"
"I'm just worried, Seiichi. Gomen..." Fuji lowered his head, his brown locks covering his face. Yukimura saw the instant change within Fuji and inwardly sighed.
"I told you to stop feeling guilty, Syuu. Besides," the demigod placed a delicate hand on Fuji's shoulder. "we'll save them. I promise."
A scarlet line then wrapped around his hand and onto Fuji's shoulder, binding Yukimura's promise. But Fuji couldn't even feel the warmth within the promise as he felt it settling in into himself.
:~:
"Oi, A-Atobe... I found them..."
"Ahn, what's with the trembling voice, Oshitari?"
"T-T-This..."
...
"Ahn? It's just them sleeping, Oshitari. Now leave ore-sama for his beauty sleep."
"If only you'd notice what's really going on with them..."
:~:
(Time skip to that afternoon, cause nothing happened during practice)
Practice had just ended at 1 in the afternoon, with both the sadists looking down. Fuji would just keep letting his hair down to cover his face; Yukimura has a dangerous but sad aura around them, making the practice for the others even worse. They wondered if anything had happened to the two, but didn't bother to question it.
"Ne, Seii." Fuji placed his pale hand on Yukimura's shoulder, after most of the people had left. "We gotta meet up with Hyotei."
"Atobe said that he's sending a limo to us after our practice." Niou shook his head. " A limousine. He's too rich for his own good."
"Hoi, nya." Eiji agreed.
As the four walked towards the Rikkai Dai gate, Fuji heard a whizzing sound getting louder, his eyes immediately locked onto the flying object towards...
"Seiichi!" Fuji pushed away Yukimura and grabbed the knife by it's sharp point, and cried out loud. The knife cut through his flesh deep, leaving his hand to burst out bleeding.
The knife was made of silver.
"Syuusuke/Fujiko/Fuji!" the other three cried out, the loudest being Yukimura himself, who would've been the victim. He looked towards the direction where the knife came from. Faraway, though very faintly, the Child of God saw a hooded figure with crystal red eyes. But before he could say anything, the figure disappeared.
Yukimura blinked before looking back at his injured friend. He bent down and checked on Fuji's hand. The tensai winced as Yukimura grabbed his wrist, as his injury was quite a bad one. Then the bluenette understood what happened.
The knife was aimed straight for his own heart in a very straight line. And it was so thin that Yukimura wouldn't notice when it was coming for him. But Fuji, though being next to him, was able to see the whizzing object and saved him in the nick of time.
"C'mon, Syuu," Yukimura helped his friend to stand; the humans standing near in case they needed any help. "Let's get to Atobe's first."
"Are you gonna be alright, nya Fujiko?" Eiji whimpered, clutching onto Niou, who didn't mind the cat-like acrobat's actions.
"Yes, I'll be okay," Fuji let out a pained smile, before turning back towards Yukimura. "Let's go, Seiichi."
And the four walked on, to Atobe's sent limousine.
:~:
"How was it?"
"Very good indeed. Although if he hadn't grabbed the knife you would've killed him in one go."
"When's the next attack then? I want to kill them as soon as possible."
"Very soon, my friend..."
Very soon...
:~:
"Keigo-sama," a butler bowed deep. "Your friends are here as you have planned. Although one of them has his right hand injured deeply by a silver knife."
Atobe and the Hyotei regulars were sitting in a spacious, oval room; their meeting room. And upon hearing the news, Atobe slammed the table and stood up abruptly, making everyone (but Jirou ._.) startled.
"Ahn, his hand was injured?" Atobe said loudly. "Bring them here, including the injured one."
"Yes, Keigo-sama." And with another deep bow, the butler left the room.
The other regulars looked uncomfortable as Atobe sat down, who let out a grumpy sigh. Soon enough, the four people they were expecting walked into the room with sullen expressions.
"Atobe," greeted Yukimura.
"Yukimura," Atobe said with the same tone. He then looked at Fuji, who was clutching his right wrist, his expression telling everyone the truth.
"Oi, Choutaro," Atobe snapped his finger. "Heal his hand."
"Hai, Atobe-san!" The junior then hurried to Fuji and muttered some words, before the wounds began to heal by themselves. However, scars were left upon his delicate wrist, and Choutaro could do nothing about it; injuries made by silver objects always leave scars upon vampires if they were ever healed.
"Thank you," Fuji mumbled, as the junior walked back and sat down next to Shishido.
Atobe glanced once more at the group, before saying, "Why won't you sit down, hmm? Do you think that ore-sama doesn't want to you sit down?"
"No, we don't think of that." Niou glanced at Atobe, before pulling Eiji to sit where Gakuto was not; the two acrobats did not get along well. Then there left two empty seats next on Jirou's side, which was taken by the vampires.
"What happened to your hand first, Fuji?" Oshitari folded his arms, an amused look on his face. He didn't seem to take it in that Fuji was obviously attacked, but the vampire tensai only smiled, before flashing his scarlet red eyes at him.
"Someone tried to kill me with a thin silver knife," Yukimura stated, pulling the silver object out from nowhere. "But Syuusuke grabbed it by the sharp side, saving me but injuring himself."
"You could see it though, couldn't you?" Shishido glared hard. "Gekidasa daze!" (That's super lame!)
"He couldn't, nya." Eiji retorted. "The object was directly aiming for him, so Yukimura wouldn't see it."
"Let's go back to our topic, shall we?" Gakuto grumbled. "I'm tired of this already."
"Fine by me," Fuji stared at his injured hand.
"I, for one, found out the location of where they were hiding your partners," Oshitari coughed, and pointed towards the white wall in front of Atobe. Then, a digital map of Tokyo appeared as if a screen projector was active. "They're at this abandoned prison camp, but only using one small room that has never been used before to capture them."
"There are no windows, and the door locks from outside," Jirou yawned. Apparently he was waiting for the discussion to start by taking a nap. "At least that's what I remembered from Oshitari."
"So what ore-sama propose is this," Atobe stood up, before declaring. "We sneak up when they're asleep, then ambush them and save Tezuka and Sanada."
"But then they might not be there," Yukimura grimaced. "If we know Mizuki and Higa enough, they're bound to have moved them to a different room by now."
"I suppose that's true," Hiyoshi stared at the wooden table, thinking deeply. "Then do we wait until the last day?"
"If that's so, then we think of a safe plan to save those Hunters." Atobe stated. "Na, Kabaji?"
"Usu." Replied the bulky guy, emotionless as usual.
:~:
"I can't believe the nerve of them," Shiraishi Kuranosuke cried. They had witnessed what the revived vampires had done and were shocked very badly. Some of them were crying, while others just kept sullen.
"S-S-Sanada s-senpai..." Kirihara Akaya was once again clutching onto Yagyuu Hiroshi, though the senior was hugging him, bearing his junior's cries as he knew how painful it was.
Another sob was heard, and heads turned to look at Echizen Ryoma, whose head was pointed downwards, his hair covering his feline eyes. He was clenching his fists, and his whole figure was trembling. "Buchou..." he sniffed and gritted his teeth, angry at what Mizuki and his gang had done.
No one was surprised that the arrogant freshman would cry. This is a situation that made everyone stunned. Kawamura Takashi, feeling for his kouhai, was trying to hold back his tears.
"I hope they're gonna be able to take it," Yuuji Hitoji sighed.
"Yukimura and the rest..."
:~:
(Time skip, again, to the evening, the plan will reveal in the third night, I swear T-T)
Fuji and the others were walking back towards Yukimura's home. They had decided to let the limousine driver stop them at a further distance away, and naturally the driver obeyed.
As the four walked in silence, they couldn't help but worry and wonder if the plan with Hyotei would work. Niou was looking towards the moon when a figure jumped out from the trees, a katana within his hands.
The trickster knew that it was another mini attack, and he quickly transformed into the first person he could think of, and as the figure was about to seemingly slice Fuji into half, he blocked it with his left hand.
"S-Sh-Shiraishi?!" Eiji half yelled, looking surprised at the person Niou had transformed into, then understood. The trickster was trying to save Fuji from using Shiraishi's hidden golden bangle underneath his bandages, and it was actually working.
The figure then sheathed his katana and jumped away, disappearing into the night.
"I can't take this anymore..." Fuji whimpered, falling to his knees. The depressed aura immediately encased the four, making the rest shiver in fright. How can we even save Kunimitsu and Sanada when these attackers keep on coming? And seeing Kuranosuke... I just...
Fuji screamed, over and over again.
He couldn't take it anymore.
He was losing all hope for saving the two Hunters.
Yukimura, on the other hand, was looking stunned. He had seen those clear eyes and with the katana, he was almost positive but couldn't believe who had tried to kill Fuji.
... Was that... Sanada?!
:~:
"Tch. I almost got him!"
"Never mind that now, we'll show them tomorrow."
"Yea, right. We will tomorrow. For damn sure."
"We will kill Fuji and Yukimura by tomorrow. Either we die or they do."
Omg that's it.
I'm so sorry this took so damn long yet I didn't write as much.
I had no time over all the homework and life.
And since no one voted in the poll, then I might as well not make it into a trilogy then... but you guys can still vote for it since I haven't post up the chapters yet.
The last two chapters should come up soon enough.
For now though I'm so sorry for posting this late ;-;
See ya'll next time =))
