Vampire Kisses

85: Kokichi

I didn't have any control over my body. I saw Cathy struggling against Shuichi before my body went limp and I was back in the mindscape. I looked over to the walls and they were a bright white color. It almost made my eyes hurt looking at it. It looked so pure and bright it was making my head spin. I seemed to be alone...which honestly wasn't preferable, because of my main fear. But I need to analyze the situation before doing anything.

Okay, the walls are all white and one of them has a mirror on it. I'm sure it's one of the mirrors that are in interrogation rooms in all the crime shows, so that means whoever is here with me can see me moving around while I am unable to see him. That puts me at a disadvantage...but we can work around this.

There was a white table in the middle of the room with a razor blade and another vial of something next to it. I was confused by this before two chairs rose up from the floor. This must be whatever the other person wants from me...and knowing the way he possessed Cathy only moments ago...this must be Kurai.

"Kurai," I said, moving in front of the glass. "Show yourself!" I yelled out banging my hand against the glass which caused it to crack. Hmm, I wonder how hard I have to hit to break the damn mirror? Guess we are going to find out. I thought to myself before he laughed from behind the window as I struck it again.

The glass shattered and cut into his cheeks and neck as it moved around him. He didn't even flinch at this as his eyes met my own. His whole face was full of despair...filled to the brim with hopelessness and just full of malice.

"Here I am~ Kichi~," He said before he morphed into Shuichi. He looked exactly like him and it honestly made me feel confused. But I knew this was all part of the game...I'm certain that he wanted me--or himself to use that razor to take some of my blood before force-feeding me that fluid next to it. I wasn't sure how the fluid would come into the equation if he was able to get my own blood.

"That's not fair," I said back with a piercing glare. He flinched a bit at this before tears came into his eyes. "But Kichi, why don't you love me anymore?" He cried as Shuichi and it took a lot out of me to not just move over to him to hold him in my arms to make him feel better. I have to remember that this is just his game to get me to break. I won't give that power to him.

"You aren't Shuichi! And you never will be!" I yelled out before I felt his arms around me. "Oh~ But don't you want Shuichi to overpower you, make you his own~" He teased again, making me take a few steps back. I need to calm down...he just wants me to react badly, so just don't let him see it.

"Well you know I love him more than anything~ but I don't want to force him to do anything~ That takes the fun out of it~" I teased back putting my arms behind my head. He groaned under his breath before smiling back up at me. Okay, that only ended up making him mad at me...so I need to be able to control his emotions better. I need to beat him at this game of manipulation.

"Well that's bold of you to say~ I can see your desires you know~," He said making my breath hitch a bit before I remembered, Syn and I are the ones with the heart and soul connection so she would be able to see my heart's desire not him. Well, I hope anyway...I haven't heard Syn at all since I have been here.

"How would you know that~ I could be lying you know~," I said before winking at him. I don't desire for Shuichi to dominate me...I just want us to take this at our own pace, if we get there we get there, but if we don't I will still love him just as much. He seemed to notice me cutting through his words to reveal what a poor lie he told. He flinched and took a couple of steps back. I felt my confidence come back, he seems nervous so I must be getting closer to why I am trapped here with him in the mindscape.

"Well too bad for you," He said, lowering his head before his eyes came back up to meet mine. I flinched at his gaze before he started floating. "I have more control over here because you--an immature vampire--doesn't have control over your mindscape yet!" He said before I moved into the chair as it came under me. I flinched and fell against it as it pulled me into it.

Straps were moved around my arms and ankles. I just rolled my eyes before his hand went over my mouth. I flinched at this before he shushed me. "It will only take a moment~ Can't make Veronica have to wait longer than she has to~," He said in the same lovey-dovey tone. It made my blood boil. He can't be saying things like this to me! Shuichi can...but he wouldn't be doing things like this! Right?

I felt time stop as I realized something. I want to trust in Shuichi when he says he loves me...but I can't say that this hasn't ever come across my mind.

What if our relationship becomes like Cathy and Kurai?

I know that he loves me and Cathy mentioned before that she has never seen such a strong bond before...but what if Shuichi gets bored of me? What if he moves on from me just like Kurai with Veronica? What if this is all a lie

"Finally it's working~" I heard his voice and it pulled me out of my own head. Shit, how long was I out?! I looked down at my arm and saw there was a cut up the middle and the liquid seemed to be spilt all over the wound. Wait...what is this even going to do?

"What's working?" I asked giving him a deadpan look. "Ah~" He moaned a bit, making me look at him confused. "It's already working~ Just like she said it would~," He said again before I felt my mind come back to me.

I opened my eyes and saw Shuichi above me looking down at me. "What the hell do you want?" I said, sounding cold. I couldn't even remember most of the things about Shuichi...and the harder I tried to remember the more I forgot.

"What's wrong baby?" He asked, putting a hand on my shoulder. I wanted to move into his arms but my body moved away from him after swatting his arm away from me. "Don't touch me!" I yelled a bit as I stood up. Why do I act so angry at him? He didn't do anything wrong...wait...who even is Shuichi to me.

Shuichi Saihara,

Changed you into a vampire

The cause of bites and being bitten

Cause of painful scars in your chest

Cause of the pain you are feeling mentally

Reason why you got possessed.

Ah, Shuichi Saihara...sounds like a major asshole. Why did I even love him in the first place? What does love even feel like? Actually, who gives a fuck about that...I need to get away from this asshole. He is the reason why I'm a monster...why did I even let him do this to me? Why was I so foolish in the past?

"Baby?" I heard him call again with some tears in his eyes. "Don't call me baby...you monster," I said back in a harsh tone. More tears came and I went to move away from him, but there was this force keeping me in place. I tried to move again before the wind came against my chest holding me back.

"Syn! Let me go! I can do this on my own damn it!" I yelled, moving my hands to scratch at my chest. Shuichi moved over to me and held my hands in his own despite me kicking my legs against him and struggling. "Get off me!" I yelled at him trying to push him away again. He didn't say anything as I felt a pinch in my neck.

"What did you do...?" I started to ask before the world went black again.

-This is going to be a little crazy--so I hope you are all able to keep up with the plot! I wish you all the best of luck and thank you all so much for reading!-
