"M-Mika-chan...." No reply. I look at him. He was avoiding eye contact.

He's keeping something from me. Something had happened in these 4 years we were apart....

Did he... become a...?

With my right hand still holding Mika-chan's wrist, my other hand slowly reaches up, towards his mouth. I gently press my thumb to his lips, asking for permission. Mika-chan hesitates but slowly opens his mouth. Right off, I felt it: teeth too long and sharp to belong to a human.

I look up at him again.

Avoiding eye contact. As I thought.

"Mika-chan...."

".... I know.... I'm... a monster. You can hate me, but, please, I can explain." He finally looks at me, pain written on his face.

"I-" My sentence was cut off as I heard something from behind me.

"Mika-chan~! Where are you~?" Must be one of the vampires.

"Dammit. It's him." He clenches his teeth, seeming very annoyed. "You need to get out of here, (Y/N)-chan. They'll kill you if they find you here." He grabs my hand and pulls me towards the shadows as a vampire emerges out of the shadows on the other side. Mika-chan was already pulling me away, but I caught a glimpse of the vampire.

Long, silver hair tied up in a ponytail with a red ribbon.

I know him. I've seen him before. Since that time, I've been having nightmares almost every night. The one responsible for killing almost everyone in my family. Ferid Bathory.

Anger sweeps through me.

Mika-chan must've sensed it, "You mustn't, (Y/N)-chan. You're no match against him. He's too strong."

True. As the seventh progenitor, he was way stronger than we were. It would be suicide to fight him one on one.

"This is the furthest I can go. You should be safe here." Mika slows down his pace and comes a to a halt. I can see the Moon Demon Company camps near. "I have to get back now, (Y/N)-chan, but I will come back. I promise to come back to get you and Yuu-chan. Just you wait." With a gentle peck on my forehead, he left.

Slowly, I walk back towards the camp, trying to comprehend everything.

Mika-chan is a vampire. Only nobles can turn a human into a vampire. Nobles.... Only one noble comes to mind: Ferid Bathory.

I grit my teeth.

It's all that bastard's fault. If he hadn't interfered, my family would still be alive. If he hadn't turned Mika-chan into a vampire, Mika-chan would still be human. He knows, as well as the other vampires, how much we humans despite vampires, nevertheless being turned into one ourselves.... But if it wasn't-

"(Y/N)?" Yuu-chan appears in front of me. Surprised, I trip over a rock on the ground and fall on my bottom.

"Ite..."

"Aah! Are you alright, (Y/N)?" He hurries to help me up.

"H-hai. I think so." I answer, "But what are you doing out here so late, Yuu-chan?"

"Oh... Um... I..."

"What Yuu-san is trying to say is that he's worried about you and came looking for you." Shinoa pops out behind Yuu-chan.

"W-what?! I wasn't worried! I... just wanted to check up...."

"Don't worry, Yuu-chan. I was only taking a walk around. I didn't go far though. And I'm back, safe and sound, ne?"

It's best if I don't tell him about Mika-chan just yet.

"Yeah... I was only worried about a family member...."

"Or are you?" Shinoa had a mischievous smile on her face.

"Shinoa-chan. Stop teasing Yuu-chan already. He just cares about us. And sorry to worry you, Yuu-chan. I'm fine. Really."

He gives me a slight nod and walks back to the camp. "Okay. Oyasumi!"

"You sure care about him, standing up for him like that," Shinoa says after Yuu-chan left, the smile still on her face.

"I'm supposed to. Who else could keep him in check, if not for me? He used to only listen to Mika-chan, but..." I stop, not wanting to bring back those memories.

"Oi! You two brats! Get to bed already!" Makoto Narumi calls from the camp. "Jeez, kids..." You heard him say loud enough for you guys to hear. Shinoa giggles as you guys walk back to rest.

Tomorrow will be a busy day...
