WINDBREAKER (Sakura Haruka x Kotoha Tachibana)

Blood🩸 [VII]

* * *

The night came, they traveled immediately to where Kotoha fell off as they were flying above the red sky, carrying Kotoha on his arms

"Sakura,Why do you think the sky was red?"

"Normally the blood moon would actually last long for about umm I dunno Maybe about 2 days? Or about 3? But right now As far as I know, this is the night every vampire was waiting for too long, because at this very moment I'm sure the portal in the vampire realm will open to the human realm again, it seems Like I'll get busier and busier soon" he was grinning as if he was ready to fight them all anytime

"When would this last long?" Kotoha keep staring at him

"About a month I guess, depends on the portal, if it won't close sooner the vampires would only keep on coming out"

"Have you been there before?"

"No, since I was born here in the human realm, And I wouldn't really have wanted to go there. I'm sure their world is darker even in the daytime"

A few moments later they've arrived at the place, there they spotted Umemiya standing on the cliff were Kotoha was last seen. The moment they met Umemiya ran towards her and embraced her tightly

"Kotoha!... I'm so glad you're fine, do you know how much worried I am?"

"I'm sorry for not letting you know about my whereabouts, I was in a hurry back then, but I could guarantee to you that I'm fine"

"Kotoha, who is that man behind you?" Umemiya curled down his eyebrows

"Ah! Right, his name is Sakura, he was the one who treated me when I was in a bad state, after he found me down there" Kotoha stared down but it would only cause her anxiety if she stared down for too long

"And Sakura, this is my brother, although we're not blood related"

Sakura only stared at him suspiciously

"You don't need to say that y'know!, but do you really trust this guy?" Umemiya felt uncomfortable, as if he couldn't hand her sister over to a stranger

"Yes. I trust him" without hesitation she answered,

"Are you sure he can protect you in any kind of harm?"

"Yes. In fact he... Was a vampire" she whispered the words to him but that only made Umemiya shocked in surprise, quickly grabbed Kotoha a few steps back then glared at him It somehow made Sakura upset

"Don't worry! He won't hurt us! He was actually the one who's been saving humanity from vampires who desired cruel Intentions to humans. For years!.. "

"I thought they didn't exist they actually do but, are you really certain about what you're saying Kotoha? This guy must be lying to you this whole time!"

Kotoha went silent for a moment, Sakura felt uncomfortable, he wanted to leave her behind, knowing what her answers would be as he doesn't like to hear the other parts of the conversation anymore.

"He wasn't lying, that's the only thing I know" she was confident as she answered the question from her brother. It actually made Sakura feel at ease, as the uncomfortable atmosphere enlightened

"I see, I guess I have to believe you then... " he slowly approached Sakura who was silent the whole time and patted his shoulder "please take care of my sister, I'm counting on you" he looked to Sakura with pure intention

Suddenly some Knights noticed them from afar who were roaming the whole area, Kotoha quickly hid behind Sakura's back seeing that made Umemiya believe her even more when she said she trusted him and with that The two jumped off of the cliff and vanished into the thin air
