Reborn as Vampire of the Blue Moon [OC x Vanitas]

17. Tears like Rain

~Narrator POV~

It was still evening when Noé opened the door of the hotel room because there was a knock. Vanitas was out and Noé was alone. ,,Yes?" Noé asked. Amelia, who was standing in front of him, held a letter out to him with a smile. ,,A letter arrived your, Monsieur Noé.'' ,,For me?'' ,,It was left at the front desk.'' Amelia explained. The name Mikhail was written at the bottom corner of the letter. When Noé pulled the note out of the envelope, a tuft of brown hair tied together with a purple ribbon and a tuft of blue hair with a light green ribbon fell down. Shocked, Amelia and Noé looked down. The note was a poster of the amusement park, with a sentence written on it.

,,I'm waiting for you with Mademoiselle Domi and Athanasia!'' 

Furious, Noé crumpled up the note and stormed past Amelia. She didn't know how to react...

Not far from the amusement park, Mikhail sat on a bench and patted Dominique's head as she knelt in front of him. Athanasia stood motionless next to him, staring into nothing. ,,Your poor thing.'' Mikhail said still patting Dominique's Head. ,,Why was it not me? I should have died. If I had died... Please forgive me, Noé.'' Dominique mumbled crying. ,,There, there. Don't cry, mademoiselle. I'm sure your prince will come for you before long. Then the tragic princess will find happiness, and we can return to our families one more.'' Mikhail said with a gentle smile before turning to Athanasia. ,,The same goes for you, big sister. Your prince will surely come too and then you can be part of our family. You are hurting deep inside, but that will soon be over. Father would surely like you... like big brother does...''

When Noé arrived at the amusement park, everything was dark. It was only when he reached the middle of the park that the lights suddenly came on and music started to play. Mikhail, who had already been waiting, was sitting in front of him on the carousel. ,,I bid you welcome! Thank you for coming, Monsieur Noé! I am--'' Noé didn't waste a second and immediately dashed towards Mikhail, ignoring his still injured arm. ,,Where are Domi and Athy?!'' ,,Oh my!'' Mikhail gasped excitedly. However, Noé's attack was interrupted by an automaton in the form of a dog. He jumped back a little to avoid the blade on its tail. 

When the dog attacked again, Noé dodged to the side and grabbed it by the tail, throwing it over his shoulder. When Noé tried to attack Mikhail again, he was stopped by the book Mikhail had. Noé immediately fell to his knees without any strength. ,,We didn't even introduce ourselves.'' Mikhail said, almost with a frown. ,,Let's try that again. I am Mikhail. Only this book was passed down to me by the Vampire of the Blue Moon. Yet I'm but a human!'' Shocked, Noé looked at the second book of Vanitas in Mikhail's hands. ,,Just kidding. I was channeling my big brother!'' Mikhail joked. ,,Of course, you know who that is, right, Monsieur Noé? My big brother is the one you all call Vanitas. You told Mademoiselle Domi what my brother said to you. And then Mademoiselle Domi told big sister. But all these monsieurs and mademoiselles are getting tedious. Shall we drop them? Hasn't my big brother told you anything about me? You know, like, ''I have a darling little brother.'' Or did he mention Number 71?''
