A/N: I'm so sorry for the double upload that was supposed to replace the other chapter oops. Well here's chapter two, enjoy!

Chapter Two

The faint sound of Music

"Uncle Kai…" Young Diva tugged Kai's right hand. But her uncle seemed to not notice it at all, instead he let go of her hand and neared the man playing the cello.

The tune was very beautiful and yet it was somehow depressing in a way. As Kai took steps forward, the instrument's melody brought chills down his spine. He still remembered the way Haji playing it when Saya was around. Kai winced as the image of his sister flashed in his mind, the agony in his sister's face when she dwelled in the thought that Haji died…and the broken heart she had to endure. It was very painful for Kai to see her like this, if only he could be the one she loved instead then he would bring happiness to her---But Alas, it was Haji whom she fell deeply in love with. And to her Haji will be the one and only man to occupy her heart.

The young adult clenched his fist at his side and shut his eyes. He was mentally arguing with him self whether to approach the chevalier or not.

"Kai." It was Haji who approached him. "How's Saya?"

Saya…was that always on his mind? "Asleep," he stated in reply as a matter-of-fact.

The chevalier's initial response was a sigh and also shaking his head in disagreement. "Of course. Has there been any improvement?"

"It's only been less than thirty years."

"Yes, well, I'm glad she's alright." A satisfied grin spread across Haji's pallid face. The lack of information seemed to content him?

"I haven't even said anything like she's 'great!' or 'fine' and yet you conclude she's alright?—

"She hasn't been alright. It's like she died."

"She'll awaken one of these days." Haji contradicted. "It's bound to happen, give Diva's twins my best wishes." With that, he was gone.

"Bastard." Kai muttered as he kicked a piece of rock in the northward direction.

"So Julia, you seem flustered about what happened. Is Argeno to blame?" David absent-mindedly slipped a hand on his wife's shoulder with the other hand supporting his son.

"No, you know how he is, he just pisses me off." Doctor Silverstein's tone remained normal and calm. "For all I know I'm through with him and his stupid company."

"You're quitting?"

"Why not! My brilliance is taken for granted by Collins and who knows…" she trailed off and took Daniel's sleeping form from her husband. She planted a kiss on Daniel's forehead. "...David, why did you choose to marry me?" the blonde doctor questioned the man next to her with he eyes glinting.

"Was it because of the intellect? The beauty? The efficiency?" her voice trembled.

"Julia…" He reached out for her hand but she brushes him off.

"…Because I love you. It's not just the beauty or the brains. I fell in love because of who you were."

Julia's face softened. "I'm sorry it's just that a lot of people have deceived me in the past …"

David took her head in his hands and embraced her. "I won't ever hurt you, I'll protect you even if my life depended on it."

"Julia," His lips brushed against her lips down her neck. "I love you."

"Are we home yet?" Daniel's eyes fluttered open and searched the area. "This isn't home!"

"We've been walking for thirty minutes, Dan, patience is a virtue, young man," His mother waved a finger in front of his face.

"Yes mommy." The boy then gazed at his father, almost like examining his father.

"Is there a problem little guy?" David smiled

"Daddy isn't a vampire is he?"

"No, Daniel, what made you say so?" she chuckled.

"He was biting your neck."
