Chapter 3

 

I was right there when it happened… I was fighting along side her, she and I made a pretty good team but as soon as I turned my back she was gone… her connections through her mind to everyone’s mind cut… she was dead. She was Natasha, the one I loved.

I dropped to the ground… I could no longer fight. It felt as if someone had stabbed me through the heart. My sword fell out of my hand and onto the ground with a thud but I barely even heard it. Hot tears rolled down my face like rain drops on a window of a car. The witches and myth hunters that I had been fighting surrounded me, I didn’t even care. They could kill me and I wouldn’t have cared, Natasha was gone.

Suddenly Koneko appeared out of no where killing all the witches and myth hunters easily. After doing so the scent of blood was strong in the air, blood had also splattered over Koneko’s armour. She ran up to me and hugged me. She didn’t even even to say anything, her hug said everything I needed to hear. I hugged her back and cried harder. Holding back tears of her own Koneko licked the tears from my face with her rough tongue.

“Don’t cry Hunter,” she whispered to me but she voice sounded shaky like she herself was going to start crying, which would make sense because Koneko and Natasha had been friends for years. Koneko has lost two people that were every important to her in a very short time. The stress and depression must be getting to her. I couldn’t imagine how bad she must be feeling right now. Still here is trying to cheer me up.

“We still have each other,” she told me still sounding like she was about to burst into tears.

“Can we just go back to Andrew’s mansion?” I asked still crying. That was it for Koneko she burst into tears herself.

“Don’t say his name!” she cried and then ran off leaving me behind.

I wanted to run after her and comfort her but I couldn’t. I could barely see through my tears. Everything was a blur.

After crying for a while I eventually got up. I had to go back to Andrew’s mansion. Natasha would never have wanted me to die because I was too upset to defend myself. Even thinking about her now hurt… I had to think of something else.

Then I remembered that vampire girl Koneko had brought to the mansion a few times. Miyako Toya. All the sadness of losing Natasha melting away as I thought of Miyako. However I could feel hate and anger coming in the place of the sadness. Still anything is better than sadness. How old was that vampire anyway. She didn’t seem to be around Koneko’s age at all. Why does Koneko even want to be around a leech like her? How could you be friends with a leech or worse an annoying leech that is younger than you. She must have something wrong with her. Where is she right now? … Who knows…

 

I came to Andrew’s mansion but I couldn’t go in. I couldn’t bare to face everyone after Natasha had died …. and her scent still hung fresh in the air. It was haunting me. I can’t handle this! I turned and ran as fast as I could. I just wanted to get away from there. Away from her scent. Tears began flowing down my face which was already wet from crying. I didn’t even know where I was going I just kept running.

 

Eventually I came to a mansion. I had never seen it before. The tears stopped flowing from my eyes. I could smell vampire coming from it. Why had I had never noticed this mansion before. Slowly I walked up to a window and looked into it. The room that I had looked in was dark but it was very clean, there was no dust anyway. So it means someone does live here… but who?
