Rena's POVOn the next Saturday, the eight of us went to Kyoto. It was not a holiday trip even though it didn’t look like work trip. Since the time we were all on the van of Minami, Kuumi, Kanon and Jurina had been teasing and playing with each other like little girls and made chaos on the car. Even when we reached our hotel, the three of them was still running around and making mess over the place. They only stopped when Minami scolded them for being so naughty. We just laughed at the scene since it was too funny to miss it. A midget was scolding three little puppies, which could make Minami beocme a striky old lady if someone else saw her. We splitted into two rooms and we were going to stay there for a week, depended on how well the plan went, we might have to change the time.
At the moment, we gathered all in the vampires’ room and once again, had a secret meeting. But first, we all wanted to see the bomb that Mayu and Yuki had been advertising a lot.
“OK, Mayu, let us see your new baby now.” Minami said curiously.
“Hai.” Mayu replied coldly then reached out for her bag. Yuki, who was sitting right next to her, giggled which made us even more curious. We all came closer to the cyborg to take a better look at the inside of her bag and received a yell from the cyborg.
“Hey! All of you, back off! I need some space here!” Mayu waved her hand to gesture us to sit back. We followed and stared at her back eagerly. “You hopeless people...” Mayu sighed and finally took her hand off her bag. She raised the bomb in front of us with a cheerful smile on her face.
It was...
“Tada! What do you think?!?”
“EHHH?!?”
... a bunny...
We all stared at the fluffy bunny in her hand and had the same thought: “What the heck is this?” No one said a word. The only thing that was heard was the non-stop laughter of Yuki, who was rolling on the floor, holding her stomach and laughing out loud.
The bright smile on Mayu’s face disappeared when she received no comment from us besides the weird and unbelievable expression on our faces.
“Hey! Say something!” She said, anger could be found in her tone.
Minami, after a moment of shock, cleaned her throat and slowly asked.
“Mayuyu... Is it a... bunny?”
“Yes, it is. Can’t you see it?”
“I can but... Where is the bomb?”
“What do you mean?” Mayu raised an eyebrow.
“Are you supposed to show us your bomb?”
“What do you think I’m holding now? And stop LAUGHING already, Yukirin!” Mayu raised her bunny higher and closer to Minami while glaring angrily at the laughing girl.
“Eh... Eh?... EH!!!!” Minami’s eyes went wide and stared at the fluffy thing in front of her. “D-Don’t tell me... this is...”
“Yes! For the millionth time, this is the bomb!”
“WHAT!?!?!” The six of us exclaimed at the same time in shock. The raven-hair girl, who just managed to stop the breathless torture, was bursting with laughing again.
“Mou! Stop staring at me with a weird face like that and spit it out! Yukirin, stop laughing already or you’ll be punished tonight!”
“Gomen, Mayuyu but... Hahahaha!!!”
“OK... Wait... Mayuyu... Are you kidding?” Minami asked.
“No. Do I look like I’m playing?”
“But... You can’t be kidding me! You’re telling us that this bunny is the bomb?” Jurina exclaimed and threw her hands into the air.
“Do not judge things by their cover, you idiot.” Mayu hissed. “It’s just a cover. It would be so obvious if we made it look like a normal bomb so we made the extra cover. No one would ever think that this bunny is actually a bomb that can eliminate everything in a five-kilometer-square area.”
“So... The bomb is inside, right?” Atsuko asked.
“Yes.”
“You guys should thank Mayuyu for the idea. She was the one who came up with that cover.” Yuki wipped away her tears and tried to say in between her breath.
“Now that explains why it’s a bunny but not something else... I almost forgot how girly Mayuyu is...” Kuumi nodded, made everyone laugh at her statement.
“What’s problem with the bunny?” Mayu pouted.
“Kawaii~” Yuki immediately threw her arms around the small girl and hugged her tight.
“OK stop the cheesy thing and explain us how the bomb works.” Minami said annoyedly.
“Easy like eating cake. You just need to put this inside the armory, anywhere is fine. Then press the nose and you have ten minutes before everything explodes.” Mayu explained.
“Ten minutes are enough. Now let’s proceed with the plan.” Minami clasped her hands. “OK, after a month working together, I know quite a lot about each one’s abilities so I’ll set you guys up for a mission that fits your abilities well. First, We will be divided into three groups. The first group is detector and communitor’s group. And it’ll be Yuki, Kanon and Kuumi. Yuki’ll be the center of our communication when Kanon and Kuumi will be our detector. You guys must watch over our exist and be our eyes, OK?”
“Roger!”
“The second group is Rena and Jurina. Since both of you are very good with your swords so you’ll be our protector. Just kill anyone that block our way.”
“Hai!” Both of us said at the same time. I looked at Jurina, who was sitting opposite me. I could see the corner of her mouth curled up into a cat-like smile and her eyes locked on me. Unconsciously, my cheeks was flushed and my heart beated hastily. I turned away to hide my embarrassment. That vampire, by just a simple smile, she could make me feel so nervous and shy like this. God, I didn’t know what was happening to me anymore!
“OK, last group is me, Acchan and Mayuyu. We’ll go to the mechanic room and set the bomb there. Until there is an order from me, no one is allowed to abbandon their job, is that clear?”
“Hai!” Everyone said in union.
“OK. We’ll start at exactly 8pm tomorrow. So now, just rest and prepare for the mission.”
“Wait, Takamina.” Atsuko said before Minami can finish the meeting. “What about the location? We don’t know where it is and how it looks like inside the armory.”
“Don’t worry about that. We’ll have a guide so we won’t get lose.”
“And who would that be?”
“It’s a friend of mine. She’s an professional scout. She lives in Kyoto for so long that nothing she doesn’t know about this city. Currently, she’s hiding from the old man, “Kami-sama”, so she can only meet us tomorrow.”
“Why does he want to find her?”
“Well, actually, he’s finding anyone that he thinks they’re potential for his experiment. I don’t know what is the experiment but I know it’s not good. Something that requires living energy to work.”
“That sounds creepy... What if the experiment failed?”
“Then the person would get brainwashed. If he or she can’t be used as the experiment, Kami-sama would turn them into his slaves forever.” Minami looked at the clock. “Wow, it’s already midnight. You four go back to your room and sleep.”
“Hey. Don’t treat us like your children, midget!” Atsuko snapped back and started their daily argument.
“Whatever. Just go to sleep already! I don’t want to see a sleepy zombie by tomorrow night.”
“Are you saying that I look like a zombie?!?” Atsuko was about to shout and jump on the midget but luckily, I and Yuki acted fast enough to hold her back and shut her mouth. We held her arms and dragged her out of the room while she was mumbling nonsense in our hands.
“Oyasuminasai, minna-san.” We hunters, except for Atsuko, said in union.
“Oyasumi.” The vampires nodded back.
At that night, I was the only one who was still awake. The other three were sleeping soudly beside me when I was just staying in my futon and staring at the ceiling. It wasn’t like I was too worried or nervous that I couldn’t sleep. I was just haunted. Haunted by an image of a certain girl. I couldn’t stop thinking about her hurtful but yet beautiful eyes, her black silky hair, her pinky white smooth hair and especially, her unique cat-like smile. She had a slender body but she was stronger that her look. I remembered how she caught me perfectly in the mid-air in a mission and landed on the ground without getting both of us hurt. Maybe it was because she was a vampire so she got such a power like that despite of her perfect torso. I wondered how it felt to touch her flatted abdomen and... Oh my God! What was I thinking?!? Bad Rena!! I couldn’t think of doing such a thing to a 15-year-old girl!! She was too young. Oh wait... She would be forever 15 and she must be hundred years older than me currently.
Wait... If she was forever 15... then she would never die... So what was the point for me to fall in love with her if one day, I would die because of age or illness and she kept living and findinf another partner of her life. What was the point then?
“The point is whether you choose to be with her forever or not.” Suddenly, the voice from that night before echoed in my ear. I immediately sat up and looked for the source of the voice. Disappointed, I just found nothing beside the darkness.
“Don’t waste your time to look for me. You can’t see me, Rena. And I know everything about you. Don’t ask me how because I’ll never tell you.” The person said like she (yes, it was a girly voice so I guessed the person was a girl) was reading my mind.
“Yes I can read your mind.” Oh shoot... “You still don’t listen to me from that night, do you? Well, it’s none of my business to involve in your love life anyway. But do take my words seriously. Or else, you would regret that you didn’t listen to your heart. Now sleep. You’ll have a long day tomorrow.”
I stayed silent for awhile to assure that the person had left. Nothing was heard so I could finally lay down and think about what she said before. She was right but yet my mind acted before my heart so I just let it beside and forgot the whole thing.
I was dumb.
############################################
In the followed morning, when I was having breakfast in our room with my fellow friends and cousin, Kuumi and Mayu greeted and joined us. As I expected, Mayu sat next to Yuki and clinged on her like a koala when Kuumi chatted happily with Kanon. Then, I and Atsuko realised someone was missing. We both turned to the two newcoming vampries and asked.
“Hey Mayu, Kuumi, where are Takamina and Jurina?”
“They both go out to pick up our guide for tonight. Since she’s the most wanted vampire of Kami-sama so they have to go and protect her.” Mayu answered.
“In that case, isn’t it better if you go to pick her up instead of Takamina?” Atsuko raised an eyebrow. “Since you’re stronger than her and she has nothing special beside her incredibly intelligence, leadership and strategy planning.”
“Well, true but Takamina is the only one that knows where that girl is. And I need to stay here to protect you guys anyway. Only Kuumi can’t babysit the four of you.”
“Hey! We don’t need you two to be our babysitter! We can take care of ourselves!” Atsuko hissed. “We’re your senpai anyway.”
“Yes, senpai, if you’re considering our look then we’ll be 17 forever! You don’t know how many times have we been studying in a same grade over time. I’m sure I know every single word in every single book of my grade like the back of my hand.” Mayu said coldly.
“Now that I’m curious about you full-blood vampires. You said you’ll be forever 17 right?” Mayu nodded at Atsuko’s question. “So were you born as a 17-year-old girl?”
“How can you ever think of a 17-year-old girl staying in my mother’s stomach, you Baka!!! Of course not! We vampires were born the same way as humans. We were born as babies and grew older normally like other humans. Actually, during that time, we were just like a human. We ate food, had fun with other kids and didn’t have to drink blood at all.” Mayu let out a sigh before continue. “We only became a real vampire when we first tasted human blood. When the vampire blood was awaken, we would have the look of our current age and never grew old again. That was when we had to leave the human world and live in our own dark kingdom.”
“So... you first drank human blood when you were 17? From who and how?” This time, it was Yuki’s turn to ask. I could see a sight of anger on her face.
“Eh... It was from one of my former friends. She fell down on the ground, causing her nose to bleed so I helped her...” Mayu trailed off. She must have sensed the danger in Yuki’s tone.
“By licking her blood?” Yuki’s face turned dark.
“E-etou... T-there wasn’t any tissue at that time... S-so I have no other choice...” It was the first time that I would ever see such a frightened expression of Mayu like that.
“You could use some clothes to wipe it off, you know.” Yuki raised her serious voice up.
Mayu was going to die in any moment if Atsuko wasn’t there to save her life, for once.
“Wait, Mayu. When was your first drink?” Atsuko asked, stopped Yuki from killing the poor cyborg girl.
“Etou... I don’t remember. I think it was in the 14th century, in the same century when you took your first drink, right Kuumi?”
“Yes, it was.” Kuumi nodded.
“So it’s been 500 years then. Had you been drinking any other human blood since that time?”
“No. I’m in the peace side so I’ve been drinking only animal blood. Yukirin is my only exception.”
“Is it true that you’ve only drunk Yukirin’s blood after you’ve become a real vampire?”
“I swear to God the answer is yes!”
“Then case closes! Yukirin, you can stop being jealous already. Mayu has a loyal heart.” Atsuko said to Yuki.
Her face was more relaxed after hearing Mayu’s answer but she hadn’t forgiven the vampire yet. She stood up silently then walked out of the room.
“H-hey! Yukirin! W-where are you going?!? Yukirin! Wait!” Mayu called for Yuki then quickly followed her, leaving us dumbfound. I and Atsuko looked at each other while Kanon and Kuumi wore a questioning expression on their face.
“They’re so overdramatic sometimes, aren’t they?” Atsuko spoke after a few seconds of silence. “I don’t know why Yukirin is jealous about this. If Mayu hadn’t taken her first drink, she would have an old lady as her girlfriend or even worse, woudn’t have one.”
“Now that’s too cruel, Acchan. That’s how they are, being a couple. Just let them have fun in their own world.” Tapping her shoulder, I commented.
“I wonder when I’ll get someone who loves me that much.” Atsuko let out a small sight then buried into her daydream.
Suddenly, Kuumi stood up and looked outside the window. She observed the sight so carefully that we started to worry.
“What’s wrong, Kuumin-chan?” Kanon asked, pulling the edge of the vampire’s shirt for attention.
“There is a worm on the window.” She said innocently.
*Thud* Three faces landed perfectly on the wooden floor.
“The heck?!? Kuumi!!!” Kanon exclaimed angrily after she got up then grabbed Kuumi’s neck and shook the girl violently. “You just gave us a fright, you baka!”
“I-I-I’m s-s-sorry-y-y....” Kuumi tried to say while being shaken.
I and Atsuko got up and sighed at the same time. Too much for a morning. Right after that, I heard footsteps coming to our room then the door was opened. Stepping in, the figure of our famous midget appeared in our area of vision.
“Ohayou minna-san!” Minami said cheerfully. “We’re back~”
“Takamina!” Almost immediately, Acchan jumped on the small girl and caused both of them to fall hard on the ground.
“Itai!” Minami said painfully while trying to get rid of a koala clinging on herself. “Acchan! Get off me! I’m crushed here!”
“No~ Don’t wanna~”
“Ah... Got eyewashed right in the early morning. What a day.”
Suddenly, a voice rose behind the door. Standing in the doorway was a fallen angel, having a furrowed annoyed face. Wait... An angel?!? Oh God! What did I think? It was just Jurina. Why did I think of her as an angel anyway?
“Oh... Ohayou, Rena-chan.”
*Doki doki* Again! Geez! That smile again. She sure never failed to make my heart beat hastily with her smile.
“O-Ohayou, Jurina...” I stuttered on my own words. Realising the awkwardness, I turned away, avoiding her gaze and hiding my blushing face.
But when I turned my head to the opposite, a face met me in the half way. The distance was so closed that our noses touched each other. Surprised by the stranger, I jumped back and let out a loud yelp.
“Oh, there you are, Yuihan.” To be my surprise, Jurina said cheerfully then helped me to get up. “Rena-chan, meet our new friend, Yui. She’ll be our guide for tonight and live with us until the war is over.”
I took a quick look at the newcomer. The girl looked like she was in the same age as Kuumi and Mayu with a shoulder-length black hair and a pair of sharp black eyes. She seemed to be a smart, calm and quiet type.
“Sorry for startling you earlier. My name is Yokoyama Yui but you can just call me Yuihan. I’ll be in your debt from now on. Yoroshiku.” The girl bowed to me. She said in a clear Kyoto’s accent, which allowed me to know how long she had been living in this city. But not only the mysterious aura coming from her, there was something familiar in her voice that made me curious about her. I remembered that I had heard this voice before...
“Well, Yuihan will be living with us for long time since she’s being hunted so it’s better for her to stay with us, in Tokyo.” Minami got up to say but still having Atsuko clinging onto herself. “She’ll be a big help for us when she has special abilities that are rarely found in the vampire world. It’s also the reason why Kami-sama wants her to be his experiment.”
Special abilities? Like being incredibly short or extremely strong?
“Well, not that kind of abilities. Being short is just a genetic condition, as well as being strong.” All of a sudden, Yui said to me.
“Wait... Did you just read my mind?” I opened my eyes in shock.
“Yes I did.” She smiled.
“Rena, Yuihan’s abilities are empathy, telepathy and telekinesis. Telepathy is quite common among a certain class of vampires while empathy and telekinesis are extremely rare. But in exchange, Yuihan’s physical strength is as strong as a normal human so basically, she can’t fight. She can read your mind whenever she wants without our permissions so if you have any secret, it’s better not to think about it.” Minami explained to me.
Empathy and telepathy... Finally, I remembered where I heard her voice. It was the same voice from the night at the white mansion and also from yesterday night. It was her all the time telling me about my feelings. No wonder why she knew my name and that...
“Nice to meet you, Rena-san.” The girl smiled once again, sending a chill sensation throughout my spine. At that moment, I felt my personal life wasn’t going to be peaceful anymore with the presence of this new mysterious girl.
