"Hey! Where have you been? You seems to disappeared this couple of days." Ryusei said as he look at Sakuya who is in deep thoughts.

"Yeah, You rarely hang out with us." Koyuki said worriedly.

"Is there something wrong?" Mahiru asked.

"Its just...." Sakuya said as he was hesitating to tell them or not.

"Its okay dude, were your friends so you can tell us anything." Ryusei said.

"Yeah, Saku-chan is always mysterious. So, if you have something in mind we might able to help if you'll tell us." Koyuki said.

"And don't you dare lie. Your the one who said before that you hate liers don't you?" Mahiru scolded.

Sakuya was surprised with that

"You remember?" Sakuya asked Mahiru.

"Remember what?" Mahiru asked confused.

"Remember the times I said those. You remember your memories?" Sakuya said.

Mahiru realize something. "Ale? Why did I say that?..." Mahiru was confused himself.

"I actually don't remember. Those words just come out of my mouth of all the sudden." Mahiru said.

Sakuya sigh. "I thought you remember." Sakuya murmur.

"Remember what exactly?" Mahiru asked.

"Nothing, Its better br forgotten since its complicated to explains." Sakuya said.

"Your starting to sound like Kuro." Mahiru said.

"Don't compare me to that stupid Cat!" Sakuya argued annoyed.

"Okat, Okay, Relax." Mahiru said.

"Menduksei..." Kuro said lazily on his cat form laying on the desk.

"Then why do have this long face?" Koyuki asked.

"You look ugly like that." Ryusei said.

Sakuya gave a glare at Ryusei who didn't care.

Sakuya sigh again. "Well, its just that I found my master once more." Sakuya said.

"Your master?" The 3 of them said and Kuro look at sakuya seriously. He knows, Sakuya's master is really a troublesome person.

Its one of the person he doesn't wanna meet again. He knows how Tsubaku despite him very much.

"His The 8Th Servamp. The servamp of Melancholy:Who is coming or Tsubaku for short" Sakuya said.

"The name sounds familiar though." Mahiru said.

"Because you met him before and I'm telling you it wasn't a pleasant meeting. Its almost broke our friendship you know..."Sakuya said.

" Really? " Mahiru said sadly.

Sakuya nod.

" I'd like to know what happened exactly. " Mahiru said.

" Simplest to say, He hated Sleepy Ash or Kuro and tried to kill him and you " Sakuya said.

Mahiru was surprised with that.

" Don't worry, your still alive and him so he didn't succeed. He disappeared after that event. " Sakuya said.

"You said he is your master?" Ryusei said.

"Yes, He save me from dying and turn me into a vampire 5 years ago. I was really greatful for him beside, after that he took care of me and gave me a home together with the other who he turned into a vampire. There are 5 of us in total and each of us had a sad story to tell. "Sakuya said and look down.

" He bring us together and we became a family... So I was really torn out when those times happened. I was force to choose between my master of my friendship with Mahiru. But I guessed everything turn out well, since were friends back again." Sakuya said.

" But in return you ended up losing your precious master " Mahiru said and look down.

"Don't worry, he was the one who decided to disappeared on his own." Sakuya said assuring Mahiru.

"That a sad situation you got in Sakuya." Ryusei said.

"But Saku-chan said earlier that you finally found your master right?" Koyuki said.

Sakuya nod.

"I'm pretty sure it was him. Our eyes met, ans we look at each other for some minute before he run away. I try chasing him but he was gone. I'd tell the others with this and we end up searching for him but we have no luck." Sakuya said sadly.

"I'm sure he had a good reason why he run away." Ryusei said

"Yeah, He wouldn't just abadon you guys just like that. Your master seems nice and if he did treat you guys like one big family, then he will come back." Koyuki said.

"Yeah, afterall you guys are family. No matter what right?" Mahiru said.

Sakuya was surprised with that and gave a small smile. "Yeah. Thanks you guys." Sakuya said.

"Thats the spirit, Don't look so gloomy. You look much more uglier like that." Ryusei said

"What the hell you said you damn bastard!? 💢" Sakuya said and glare at Ryusei.

"I thought vampires have good hearing, but it seems yours are bad." Ryusei said.

"Why You!" Sakuya said.

Koyuki, and Mahiru end up laughing. "The two started again." Koyuki said.

"Sakuys cheered up again. Thats great." Mahiru said.

"Menduksei.." Kuro said.

💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫

Soon, They are walking home together.

"What are you looking at your phone? You look trouble Koyuki." Mahiru said.

"Well, You see I was waiting for my order to arrived today. But there is no message or what so ever. It should be delivered today, but I didn't get any notification." Koyuki said.

"Probably another crappy anime merchant again." Ryusei said.

"Hey don't say its crappy!" Koyuki said as he hit Ryusei on the head.

"Ah! You don't need to to hit me on the head!" Ryusei said.

"Tsk." Koyuki said annoyed.

Then suddenly caught Sakuya's eyes.

"Shit! RYUSEI LOOK OUT!" Sakuya said and suddenly he was infront of Ryusei as a knife was stab on his chest.

"Ah! SAKUYA ARE YOU OKAY?" Ryusei said worriedly as he run near Sakuya.

"Fine, I'm a vampire after all." Sakuya said and got the knife out of his chest.

"Thanks for protecting me, but Where the hell that knife came from?" Ryusei said.

Another was thrown at Koyuki's direction.

"Ah! SHIT!" Sakuya said.

Koyuki was surprised and close his eyes ready to accept the knife. But... It never came.

He open his eyes and saw Kuro was infront of him who was holding the knife. Kuro catch the knife that was just thrown.

"Menduksei..." Kuro said.

"Ack!" Sakuya said and groan in pain, he held his injury in the chest.

"Oi! Whats wrong?" Ryusei said.

"Whats this...? I... Ack!..." Sakuya said as he groan again and went on his knees. Ryusei kneel beside him.

"I can feel a sharp pain from that stabs. Its usually not like this." Sakuya said.

"Its okay, Just bare with the pain for awhile and take a rest. It won't kill you, but it would make you weak." Kuro said as he look at Knife he was holding.

"Hah!?" Sakuya said struggling with the pain.

"This Knife is From C3. Its designed to weakend a vampire." Kuro explains.

"I see... Damn its really painful ah!" sakuya said.

"Sakuya~." Mahiru said worriedly.

"Can we do something?" Koyuki asked.

"Let him rest. This won't kill him since his a vampire. It would only weakend him." kuro said.

Then another knife was thrown at Kuro, who dodge all of that by Jumping here and there, he then got one knife and throw it back to the sender. But the sender dodge it too.

"Woah, Kuro-chan can do such cool things." Koyuki said. 😲

"Thats not what's important!" Ryusei argued.

"It seems that You can fight that much Sleepy Ash~" The man who attacks them finally revealed hisself.

Mahirubwas surprised to see the face of the man.

"Long time no see~ Mahiru~" The man said.

"Wait... Your..." Mahiru said and suddenly he felt scared. He don't know why, but he suddenly felt a shiver in his spine. He suddenly felt frozen, his eyes look at this man full of fear. He doesn't know why though.

He was scared of this man.

But why?

He then have a flashbacks on what this man did to him, how this man tortured him and gave him pain all over.

Felt like he was being tortured again, as he felt sting sensation on his skin.

But Mahiru snap out of his thoughts when Kuro held his hand.

"His the one right?" Kuro said.

Mahiru was surprised to see Kuro this serious.

"Mahiru?" Kuro called.

"Ah... Yeah... I guessed..." Mahiru said.

"You know him?" Ryusei asked.

"Probably his the one who is responsible as to why I lost my memories." Mahiru said.

"Ah~ So this bastard Ack! Damn!" Sakuya said as he felt the pain again.

"You should just stay still and stop talking." Ryusei said worriedly.

"Tsk." Sakuya said

"Well, well, Its been a long time since I did let you live. And now I'll just finish what I started." The man said and point a gun to Mahiru as he shoot.

Mahiru was surprised with that.

But Kuro protected him.

"Tsk.... Menduksei..." Kuro said as he groan in pain. He was ready to fall down but Mahiru hold him.

"Kuro!" Mahiru said worriedly.

"Ah! Kuro-chan!" Koyuki said.

"Don't worry... He won't die..." Sakuya said weakly.

"You won't die from that bullet but it will make you weak. Its enough to buy me time to properly kill your eve." The man said and point the gun towards Mahiru.

Mahiru was scared. He doesn't know but, he was scared whenever he heard the man's voice and now its infront of him. Its like this man was his fear, but he got more scared when he saw the gun point at him.

He remembers the memories. The memories how this man killed his mother. He knows that memories is vague but, still he felt that this man did something more worst.

But Mahiru shook his head.

This is no time to be weak.

He needs to help Kuro, or else Kuro is not the only one would be indanger but his friends too.

But what can he do?

What can he do?...

"Mahiru... Sorry." Kuro said.

Kuro can't let Mahiru capture again, or worst he can't let Mahiru die. He already let this man take mahiru from him before and this bastard had a guts to do so. He even wipe out Mahiru's memories and now he is back.

It seems Kuro's demons were awaken. But he was holding it back since he don't want to scare Mahiru. But if Mahiru isn't here, he will let his demons take over him and enjoyed how he will make the man in front of him suffer.

But now, Kuro can't let Mahiru die so he went in and Bite Mahiru's wrist that was holding him.

Mahiru groan in pain, but he was surprised when a chain appeared in Kuro's neck connecting to his wrist.

Kuro seems to have his strength back.

"Thanks." Kuro said as he withdraw his fangs from mahiru's wrist.

His eve's blood is really the best.

"Lets continue" Kuro said seriously, with those red ruby eyes piecing glared
