WITH SLOW AND HEAVY Steps she walks around in the deep forest. Her mind is blank and her eyes shine in a bright red. A soft and heavy breath escapes her red lips, strains of Sukuna's blood still visible on them.

As she stops in front of a dark temple she falls onto her knees, feeling exhausted but strong at the same time.

The temple is made of stone, almost looking like her own one. However, it doesn't look as old as hers and the wooden door is open. Grass and other plants adorn the walls and old seals lie on the ground.

"What a surprise to see you, sis."

A deep and raspy voice rings in her ears from behind and causes her to flinch. Her eyes glow brighter and she feels an immense strength coming from the direction the voice echoes from. She slowly turns around and looks up into the red eyes of a man. A man she knows better than anyone else.

"Akito?" she mutters softly, her muscles begin to relax.

The blonde grins and gazes down at her, his hands rest in the pocket of his black pants. He wears a white shirt, which's sleeves are rolled up. His muscular arms are revealed and black tattoos can be seen.
He slowly kneels down in front of her and puts his index finger on her soft lips. Many questions form in her mind and she frowns, feeling relieved but confused at the same time.

"Shh, calm down first." he speaks with a low voice, acting caring and calm. "Sukuna's blood will weaken you for a while but don't worry. Everything is gonna be okay."
He slides his finger down from her lips and takes her chin, forcing her to look into his eyes.
"Yeah.. I can see it. Only a few days until you're in your full strength." he whispers softly to himself and she can only decipher a few words.

"Akito, what do you mean?" she asks softly. "I was worried about you."

His expression darkens at her statement and he takes his hand back, putting it on his thigh as he sighs. He grits his teeth slightly and feels anger built up inside him.
"You worried about me?" he growls, his deep voice sending shivers down her spine.

"You left me." he says. "You left me alone when I needed you most."

Nekura frowns and tries to reach for his hand. "No. It was not like that-" she utters shakily but he cuts her off as he stands up, now hovering with his whole height above her. "Oh just shut up." he groans and runs a hand through his blonde hair. His muscles tense up, being visible through his white shirt. He feels himself growing angrier with each second that passes and his breath becomes shallow.

"I was alone." he utters darkly. "But now you see me again and I'm just.." he pauses and looks down at her with piercing red eyes.

"Smarter, better, and stronger." he speaks with a wide grin, almost as if he's making a realization. He clenches his fists and his dark energy surrounds him. His hands turn black but the color spreads all over his arms, causing her to gasp at the sight. His veins are visible below his black skin and long claws appear on his hands. His smirk exposes his long fangs which are as sharp as a blade of a katana. His red eyes glow brighter and the white of his eyes turns black. The pupils disappear, leaving red orbs in his black eyes balls.

"You're going to regret leaving me alone." he growls.

She narrows her brows and stands up. However, her body still feels tense and weak because of Sukunas blood, which is still spreading in her whole body. She gulps, clenching her fists and cursing herself for drinking that maniac's blood.

"Oh, what's up, sis? Not feeling as strong anymore?" he mocks, raising his arms slightly with his palms up. "Is the queen of vampires going to loose against her younger brother?"
He chuckled and his chuckle turns into a sinister laugh.

However, she interrupts his laugh by aiming for a punch into his face.

"Not so fast."

He catches her fist, his expression now serious. His grip tightens and he lifts her with his one hand, throwing her against a tree with full force. She winces in pain and coughs, her sight slightly blurry for a short moment.
Her knees make a small crack noise as she stands up again.

He muses her with a glare, gritting his teeth in anger as he looks at her. His emotions are boiling inside him, making his body tremble slightly.

"Tell me," he speaks, and it seems almost like she can see her younger brother on his face again, "Why did you leave me alone? It has only been a few days since we were turned into vampires. I didn't know what to do with my power. I.. I was..."
His feelings disturb his rational thinking for that moment and he puts one hand on his cheek, covering one eye with his fingers.

"Akito," she mutters with a soft and shaky voice, "I tried my best to protect you. I tried to provide you with blood, find a home for us.."
As she pauses, he looks at her. His expression a bit softer than before.

"I just got.. carried away."

Her statement makes him clench his fists. His expression darkens again and the younger brother she saw for a moment disappears again, only leaving a menacing man who used to be her brother.
"I knew it." he growls. "Your power was always important to you."

He breathes heavily and the ground begins to shake slightly. She gasps, holding onto a tree.

In a matter of seconds, he suddenly appears in front of her, striking her into the face and sending her fly off further into the woods. Her body feels numb and she doesn't seem to be able to fight against him.
She sees his red eyes glowing in the dark as he kicks her into her stomach. She winces in pain, trying to keep her eyes open.

"This is no fun."
After he strikes her another time she hits against the wall of his temple, sinking down on the ground. Her body is bruised and her black clothes torn. She looks up at him as he approaches her again, her eyes heavy.

He kneels down in front of her, smiling and putting his hand on her cheek.

"Don't you worry, sis." he says with a low voice. "We'll meet again."

He lets go off her and stands up.

"In the night of the bloody moon."

"Fuck." Satoru whispers under his breath as he runs towards the woman, who sits unconscious on the wall of Akito's temple.

As he reaches her, he leans down to her to check her body. Her bruises are not deep and she's still alive - if one could say that.

"What an asshole of a brother." Satoru growls under his sigh before he puts his arms below her legs and upper body, lifting her carefully.

He walks through the woods with her in his arms, glancing down at her now and then.

"You're strong, Nekura." he murmurs encouragingly and softly. "The strongest vampire."
