The cloudy day and the sudden rain were not helping to resolve Dimitri’s problems; as he walked through a new path he had never entered, he began to complain.
“Great! Now is raining, what else could be worse?!!” the vampire screamed to the trees; he was in the middle of the forest trying to escape from himself, he destroyed some trees and was now sitting in a log. Erebi appeared from nowhere and he seemed happy, something the vampire couldn’t stand at that moment.
“Why are you so happy?” He asked in an angry way
“Well, you look like a child and that brings me some good memories; you are behaving like a stupid man you know that, right?” Erebi said, still in a happy way.
Dimitri grabbed him and looked through his eyes “I know that…but still, I can’t stand that you mention it!” He now was snuffing him in a hard way.
“Wh..what are you planning to do? You know you can’t get rid of me that easily. Don’t look at me like that; what are you going to do? Kill yourself to make me disappear? I’m part of you!” He was set free and remained on the vampire’s shoulder.
“I’m sorry Erebi, you know I need to calm myself in order to think; what I have done was a terrible mistake but the things she said…well..”
“Yes they hurt; however you need her right now so a little talk won’t hurt you so much right?”
“We better get going or else we are going to be sick”
“and..there is something else..”
“¿What do you mean?”
“It is time to let those memories…in case you didn’t notice, as far as we know, we are going to live for an undetermined amount of time. If you keep them with you, that suffering feeling will remain”
“I’m completely aware of that but part of those memories is important and if I’m going to forget, I’m forgetting everything…”
The vampire stood helping himself with a tree; Erebi knew what was happening when he saw Dimitri was fainting in the woods; as he tried to keep him hidden from anything he remembered.
The last time it occurred refers to the time when Erebi made his first appearance to the noble. It was dated after his parents were dead.
There was a little vampire who was scared; he remained in a dark corner of a destroyed mansion fearing someone would come for him, days passed and the little vampire wasn’t moving, he wanted to die but after eating, that option was not available. One morning he heard a voice coming from his mind
“ Hey little kid, you need to get out from here or are you planning to waste the rest of your life remaining here in the corner?”
The little vampire was scared, he didn’t answer.
“At least you have to live for your parents…they didn’t die because they wanted. You should be happy, new powers would come to you…right now”
After saying those words the little vampire began to suffer of a great pain through all his body; several wounds began to appear and disappear until he couldn’t resist. The pain was enough to place him in an interesting state in which he couldn’t move but could see and hear. Now he saw where the voice came; it was an interesting being that began to explain everything to him.
“Dimitri, I’m a part from you, the reason why I materialized is still unknown even to myself, however I’m here to be with you, you are not alone and it seems that what you just experience is part of your abilities. You can take the damage from people who is precious to you” a sight of hope came from the little vampire; he thought he could bring his family back.
“But it also seems that it won’t work against death” The little vampire began to cry
“Don’t cry…you’ll be fine, just rest” With that said he began to close his eyes
“Thank you…Erebi…” he said before falling asleep.
He knew his name and that prove they were meant to be company for each other; however Erebi couldn’t understand something; all of those years he had been absorbing damage but nothing happened to that energy, except for a mark on his back that kept growing in different directions every time an attack occurred; it was the same all the times, he would faint after feeling great pain, while he was in that state, marks of the injuries would appear in his body and then it would end suddenly leaving the mark on his back to grow; after that he would wake up but he would be unenviable to move.
The process passed quickly and now, the vampire was opening his eyes.
“This only means one thing Erebi…Someone was here and hurt our family; however if they left them alive..”
“It was a warning. He is coming soon”
“You mean Nathaniel is near”
“He is the only one who would do something like that”
“You are right Erebi but he is not the kind of man who would do it himself, perhaps he is building a group” Both of them realized they were in disadvantage if they had to fight a large group of different beings “We need to hurry with her transformation and the training for the others…”
They wanted to continue talking but Sophia’s scent was near, meaning with that she was looking for him. As she came near, Dimitri tried to stood up and act as normal as he could ignoring the remain of the pain he was feeling. When they finally met, Erebi disappeared.
“I finally find you, are you done with you anger? Because you know an apology is needed when we get back” Sophia said as she walked to the vampire.
“Yes..I’m done with that; I too know I need to talk with Saga my behavior was not the appropriate for the situation and now I understand it. On the other side, would you answer a question for me my dear?” Dimitri said in a voice he knew Sophia wouldn’t resist.
“Anything you want Master” When he used that voice she tend to call him master.
“Then…Was someone here when I was travelling?” He looked at her eyes and at the second, knew she was going to lie. She was bad when it came to a lie.
“…No one was here..” He knew he needed to do something in order to keep everything away; after all his family didn’t know anything about his real powers. Dimitri grabbed her face in a soft way and smile
“Everything is all right dear so don’t worry. Shall we return to the mansion?”
They walked through the forest holding their hands, feeling they were the complement for the other and knowing that support would came if it was necessary.
When they arrived to the mansion, Dimitri walked to Saga’s room, he wake her up and the only thing she saw before fainting again where two sharp and white fangs.
