Sebastian laughed,although there was a gun pointed to his face, "I think you mixed me up with someone else, I'm no vampire."

The girl glared at him, "Don't lie to me, I can tell you're a vampire, that purple aura completely surrounds your body."

Sebastian chuckled once more and moved the girl's gone from his face, "I think you're confusing me with my partner over here, so this aura thing you're talking about must've rubbed off on me....... Even so I wouldn't allow you to kill her."

The girl shook her head, "I can't confuse an aura, an aura is separate for each person, and it can't just be rubbed off from one person to another. There are two auras, one on the outer area that tells your species, and another in the inner ring that states your personality. A vampire's outer aura is purple, and that aura is what surrounds you."

Sebastian got up from his former position, "Well, your eyes must be playing tricks on you, for I am no vampire," Sebastian fixed his clothes and began to walk away in Corneillia's direction, seeing her as she drifted further away in thought.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"Oh nothing....... I was just thinking about............. something," she replied as she swayed her feet across the concrete of the sidewalk.

The girl got up from off the ground, ready to tackle Corneillia, but she was stopped by Sebastian's hand, "What do you think you're doing?" he asked while glaring over his shoulder.

"You said she's a vampire, so I'm doing what I came on these streets to do," she pulled out her other gun and aimed both at Corneillia.

Sebastian stood in the way of them both, "As I said before, I cannot allow you to take her life...... You see, she saved my life, and I am yet to PROPERLY, return the favour, so you'll have to take mine first. If you wish to proceed, please be my guest and pull the trigger."

As soon as the girl put both of her guns back in their cases, a bladed object made it's way through the air, hurling towards Sebastian, but Corneillia spotted it. As her eyes became red, she leaped into the air and kicked it out of the way.

Chase Gusto stood at the end of the street, pulling the blade back into his hands, "Aww what a shame...... I missed."

Corneillia clenched her fist and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Chase smirked, "Master Shouji wants you back home, and I was told to retrieve you....... by any means necessary," his orange eyes became red directly after those words were uttered out of his mouth.

Sebastian pushed Corneillia aside as he walked in the way, "To get to her, you'll have to go through me."

When he said that the purple haired girl rolled her eyes as she whispered to herself, "She saved your life, so what? I don't get why you're going through so much trouble."

Chase chuckled, "Oh that'll be very easy."

Corneillia tugged on Sebastian's shirt, "Before you go into an all out brawl with him..... I think you should know his ability."

"And what's that?"

"He is able to control any metallic object within a ten mile radius...... Magnetism." 

As if on queue, the sounds of metals rattling each other came from every building nearby.

The purple haired girl took out her guns and stood by Sebastian's side, "I don't trust you, but I'll help you this once," she uttered.

Sebastian smirked, "Why thank you."

Sebastian turned back to Corneillia, "On my queue you run."

Corneillia took in a huge gulp before nodding her head.

The metal clinging became louder and louder until it all stopped as if time froze.

"RUN!" Sebastian yelled, causing Corneillia to take off as fast as she could, the only thing that could be seen left of her was her pink afterimage.

"HA, that's just buying her time, she can't avoid being caught," Chase said.

The metallic objects all broke free and head in Sebastian's direction. Sebastian's left eye went red as he speedily avoided them all.

A butcher knife made it's way to the purple haired girl, but Sebastian caught it and winced in pain, "Right as this was about to heal, godammit!"

He dropped the knife and Chase only took a step closer. Sebastian looked over to the girl and said, "We need a plan."

She was staring off into space, right before she said, "Way ahead of you..... You distract and I finish him."

She ran and began to run up the nearest wall, to get to the ceiling. While up there she whispered, "That fool couldn't fool me, I knew he was a vampire, I couldn't of been wrong," she then had a confused look on his face, "But why only one eye though?"

 The blades clinging distracted her from thinking. Some were sent flying after her, but she carefully dodged while retaking aim. While Sebastian was holding him off for a while, she fired, but the bullet stopped directly in front of his face.

"I think it's dumb attempting this, bullets are made of metal... thus meaning, it's mine to control,"he said as the bullet was sent flying back to her, grazing her on her shoulder.

Sebastian ran closer to Chase, while dodging the metals, he used his left hand to grab Chase by the neck but an item stabbed Sebastian in the arm causing him to let go.

At that moment another shot burst, piercing Chase's side, for he realized too late.

He looked at her and sent knives in her direction but she was protected by a dark force field, "Leave...... her......alone," Sebastian said as he regained focus and sunk his teeth into Chase's neck.

As the blood came up, Sebastian's eyes glew with a brighter red and shadows slowly closed themselves around Chase.

Luckily for him, a knife stabbed Sebastian in the back, causing the shadows to disperse.

Sebastian fell to the ground, causing the girl to rush to his aid. Chase held his side as he jogged up to his henchmen who had Corneillia, unconscious, and left the area.

"Don't...... let........ him.....get.......away," Sebastian struggled to say.

"We'll focus on that later, but right now, you have wounds that needs to be tended to," she said while hovering her hands over the wounded area.

She pulled the three knives out of Sebastian's back causing him to scream in pain.

"Don't worry, It'll be over soon," she whispered as she re-enter the knives into his wounds.

"What's that for?!?" Sebastian yelled.

"If I take out the knives, there will be nothing to slow down the bleeding and you'll lose blood faster and die," she said in one breath, "Now shut up, you're wasting oxygen."

She put Sebastian's arm over her shoulder and placed her hand around his bleeding back.

"Where....... are we going?" Sebastian asked.

"I'm taking you to my aunt, she specializes in healing magic, so she'll be able to help."

"But...... Corneillia," Sebastian groaned.

"We'll get you to her when we're done..... Right now you need to be attended to."
