Chapter 1: Instinct

Why must it always be this way for us? Why must we endure such torment and pain? Months had passed since we met, and went on this journey to survive together. We've endured so much. I lost my family to the hands of a man I called father, you had to give yours up in order to protect them. I hunted and killed innocents accused of a crime they didn't commit, while you were forced into our struggle. I turned you into a monster, and yet you've never hated me for it. Being with you was the happiest I've ever been. All of our friends could agree that you were the treasure that was worth waiting for. And a life without you, is a life I can't live in. We've suffered so much.

No longer.

After Months of torment, months of endless running, it will soon end. As soon as I'm done here, we will be together again. Death will be our escape from pain.

Moka looks to her left with tears in her eyes, staring at a body bag. She moves over to reveal the body to belong to her lover, Aono Tsukune.

~10 months earlier~

Kokoa was on her way to the elder's manor. A month had passed since Hiroshi's death, and Kokoa was left with her sister, Kahlua. With the coven disbanded, the two sisters were left alone. Kokoa's concern for her sister grew every day. When Kahlua discovered Myabe's betrayal, her father's death, and Moka's departure, she fell into a state of depression. Day after day, she stayed in her room, barely moving from her place. Kokoa pleaded for her to follow and search for Moka, so they can be a family again, but the young vampire's words are wasted as Kahlua continued to sulk around. Kokoa had to admit: even though Kahlua creeped her out, she couldn't just leave her alone like this. Even if it took longer for her to find Moka, Kokoa couldn't just leave her oldest sister behind. She loved them both, and she felt that she had to do what she could to help them.

The young death dealer knew in order to help Kahlua she had to know what was wrong with her. The younger sibling constantly asked the silver-haired woman about it, but Kahlua wouldn't say a word. All she ever does is lay motionless, with a look of sadness marring her usually happy features.

Kokoa was at wits end. At this rate she would never find her precious Onee-sama, but then one night she heard Noise coming from Kahlua's room. She wasn't sure what Kahlua was doing up at this time, it was far too early for her to become active, but maybe this was her chance to figure out what she was up to. Kokoa wanted answers, and to get them, she had to follow Kahlua. She was careful to hide her presence and stalked her sister out of the apartment they were staying in and traveled back toward the mansion.

The dogs that were posted there were overjoyed to see their old master. Kokoa was surprised that they were still alive without the coven's care. Of course she did teach them how to fend for themselves so even without their master or orders they would still keep watch. Kokoa continued to follow her sister and followed her scent all the way to Moka's bedroom. Kahlua was unaware that she was being trailed. She didn't have any former Dealer training, so was not used to keeping her guard up at all times. Kahlua was a spoiled aristocrat who was just taught to fight and defend herself, something she hated to do, but still had to out of necessity on occasion. The curly-haired vampire made her way into the mansion, unaware of the cameras that caught her occasional visits. She understood well that the mansion has security, but never assumed there had been cameras in the sections of the basement and halls she snuck through to reach her destination.

The empty halls brought back so many memories for the older vampire. She had done her best to take care of her younger siblings, even if Moka was not a blood relative she was still her baby sister who she loved very much. She was still family…

Kahlua lay down on Moka's bed and curled her legs up to her chest, the train of her silver dress mixing like liquid mercury over the black satin sheets of Moka's abandoned bed.

Kahlua heard how Moka protected Kokoa after her father betrayed the clan, and how Myabe also betrayed them. They were the two most important men in her life, and they had both turned on her family. The vampire had never considered it even possible. She still thinks of it as some sort of lie. She would often come here and cry. She could hear the silent whispers of those that remained in the mansion talk about her sister and how she betrayed the clan to be in the arms of a werewolf. How she wanted to rip their throats out… The very thought made her cry, the very thought of killing her kin, let alone wanting to for little reason above speaking their minds.

Moka did not betray them, those fools. She had saved them all yet they cursed her as if she was the one who allowed an entire coven to be slain for one's self gain. She had heard from Kokoa, the miscommunication Myabe enforced between Dealers. No one had been able to protect Calypso's coven. Both clans had been played for fools, and Kahlua was left with no one but her two sisters to trust.

The vampire's heart was shattered into pieces. How she wished for death to come so she would not have to suffer this immortal life with such hopeless, invisible, scars.

Once Kokoa caught up with Kahlua, she was awestruck to see what her sister was doing every night. As she looked on, Kokoa could not help but feel sorry for her sibling. She watched on as Kahlua wept in sorrow, burying her face in Moka's pillow. Kokoa was finally able to get the answer she was looking for. It seemed she was mourning her sister's departure and holding all of her emotions inside. Only by coming here, was she able to release those feelings.

'Kahlua?'

Kahlua lifts her face from Moka's pillow, and turns to see her baby sister looking toward her with concern and understanding in her eyes.

'Kokoa? You followed me. I guess I should have been more secretive when trying to sneak out.'

The elder vampire tried to mask her pain with a chuckle.

'Nee-san, why didn't you tell me what was wrong? We're family. We could tell each other anything.'

The red-haired vampire offered as she took a step forward.

'With the exception of father.'

Kokoa is shocked to hear the icy tone come from her sister. Kahlua may have been strange, but she was always kind. She was the only one in the family who detested fighting. Though her skills in combat were admirable, her gentle nature always got in the way.

Even now even she felt hatred towards her father and all the crimes he has committed. Kahlua was sent to the training camp for uprising death dealers, and was absent on the day of Anya's death. She was told that werewolves had killed her sister, and since then, Kahlua has felt hatred towards the ones who she believed were responsible. She eventually fell in love with Myabe, believing him to be a hero to vampires for slaying Ginei Morioka. And even though she knew him now as a fraud, she still harbored those feelings for him.

When news circled around that it was Moka and a creature unknown to anyone had killed Hiroshi, Kahlua couldn't hate her adopted sister. For once Kokoa explained what Hiroshi had done; the only one she hated was Hiroshi.

'I know that I should hate Myabe for lying, and Moka for killing father, but I can't hate her for merely avenging her real family. And I just can't help but miss both of them. I love them both so much, and for them to leave so suddenly is just too much to take. And besides, I promised myself that I would protect both of my little sisters just like Anya did with me. But I couldn't do anything. I'm so sorry!'

Kokoa listened to Kahlua's story. She realized how much her sister has suffered, and why she struggled to keep it a secret. Kahlua was ashamed of how she felt for the two who should be hated. Kokoa walked over to her big sister and held her close to her, hoping to comfort the hurting vampire.

'It's okay. I doubt Moka hates you. You know what she said to me before she left? She said "You will always be my baby sister, and I will always protect you." I know she feels the same about you, even though expressing her feelings is hard for her. She's always stingy like that, remember?'

Kokoa said with a smirk. Kahlua looks up to her sister, and smiles.

'Yeah. Remember that time Torn bought her a new gun? She acted as if she didn't care at first, but she kept it with her always and even used it when hunting down werewolves.'

As the sisters chatter on about precious memories of their beloved sister, they are interrupted when they hear footsteps through the halls. Unsure of what could happen; Kokoa pulls out her guns and notions for Kahlua to follow her. It was possible that some of the vampires were coming to kill the two of them, for the crimes that their family has committed. Kokoa peered her head out of the door and was surprised to see Myabe, followed by a few death dealers with him. They were probably in on the little deal Myabe made with the werewolves.

Kahlua looked out the door and felt her heart beating within her chest. To see the man she loved so close to her, made her feel excited, and yet uncomfortable. She may have loved him and wanted to see him, but she could never trust him. The sisters were a little confused as to why and how Myabe got in when all of the coven knew of his betrayal. They figured, that he would have been killed on the spot. They were especially curious as to why he was here in the first place. It seemed he was on his way to the Elder's chamber. Reasons why were unsure. Akira was never awakened, and it would be a waste of time to go there now. Unless…

'Kahlua, I'm sorry. But I can't let Myabe leave here alive.'

Kahlua looks up to her younger sister, and is shocked by her words.

'Myabe is planning to kill Akira. I can't let him do this. We've already lost two elders, we can't lose another.'

Though Kahlua was hurt by the idea of killing Myabe, she knew her youngest sibling was right. Myabe's actions were wrong, and he must be stopped. The sisters followed Myabe and his followers to the chamber. Once there, Myabe's men unlocked Akira's coffin and waited for it to rise. Guns were at the ready. They awaited as the chamber steadily rose, only to reveal it to be empty.

'What the fuck? How is it empty? No one but an elder can release Akira.'

Myabe snarled in rage.

'Myabe!!'

Myabe turned to the entrance to see Kahlua and Kokoa facing him, ready for battle. Myabe sees Kahlua and grinned. He knew the effect he had on her, and her phobia of fighting.

'What? Are you gonna try and stop me? Well too bad. You're outnumbered. Besides gentle souls like you two wouldn't last ten seconds with me. Now quit playing around and tell me where you've hidden Akira.'

Myabe would take advantage of this situation and lean it to his favor.

'What are you talking about? We don't have him.'

Kokoa snapped back, loading her guns' chamber with the flick of her wrists. Before Myabe could respond, a rumbling was heard underground. All who were present turned looked the ground, unsure of what was happening beneath the ground. Their answer came when a monstrous creature erupted from below their feet. The death dealers fired onto the beast, Seemingly doing no harm.

Nothing seemed to effect the creature as they unloaded a plethora of ammo into its hide.. The beast laid waste to all of Myabe's soldiers, and turned his attention to the former noble himself. Myabe continued to fire onto the being, only to be impaled by the beast's wings. The former noble's shoulders were pierced and he was pinned onto the nearby wall. The creature brought his face to the deceitful vampire as pure disgust laced its deformed features. Myabe was unsure of who and what this creature was, until he saw the rotting corpse of the werewolf slain by Hiroshi. That was when Myabe realized who he was.

'Akira.'

A son of Aono Ichiro, Akira held the Aono gene and was awakened by the werewolves' blood, and was transformed into an abomination.

'The blood of this wretched beast has shown me that your treachery knows no bounds.'

Fearing for his life, Myabe tried to save himself.

'Wait, my lord I can explain.'

Only, he would not be given that chance again.

'Why would I listen to your lies, when the way to the truth is all the sweeter?'

With that, Akira sank his fangs into Myabe's shoulder and feasted on his blood, scanning through his memories, He saw everything that Hiroshi had done, and what had happened to him as well. Once finished, he was ready to finish off Myabe.

'Please, have mercy. I can serve you.'

The former hero pathetically begged, but it was of no use.

'…You've served me enough.'

With that, Myabe's life was taken, as Akira severed his head from his body with a swipe of his claws.

'MYABE!!'

Kahlua shrieked in horror watching the holder of her heart mercilessly beheaded by the abomination. Akira now noticed the daughters of Hiroshi, and smiled at their predicament. He rushed them and knocked Kokoa aside and grabbed Kahlua. The elder knocks the curly-haired vampire out. Kokoa rose to her feet, only to have her legs impaled by the wings demon in front of her. Unable to move, she helplessly watched as he made his departure with her sister in hand.

'After I find that sister of yours and my distant relative, I'll finish the two of you off. In the meantime, I'll be taking this one for company.'

Kokoa was unable to stop him from taking her sister. The young vampire knew what she had to do. She had to find Moka and Tsukune if she sought any chance of saving her older sister. She also had to protect them both. She had lost one sister already, to the hands of the elders, she was not about to lose another.
