After the service, the Soumas all stood before her grave. At the same time, they all chorused (excluding Rin, who had run away again, and Akito, for he was dead--and wouldn't have apologized anyways), “Tohru Honda, we all apologize for bestowing upon you, the vampire's breath.”

They had been standing in silence for a couple of minutes before Yuki stiffened.

“The rats are talking.” He said, glaring at them when some of them snickered. “They're saying that they can hear something inside of the coffin.” He paused again. “Like something scratching at it, trying to get out. Like something's alive in there. Oh my god. They are saying that the lid is moving; that something is moving the lid off it. She's still alive!”

They quickly went to the edge of the grave, for they had yet to fill it up with dirt, and saw the lid come off. They gasped when they saw Tohru stumble out…or was it Tohru? Something about her was different. She seemed…inhuman… she seemed like…a vampire.

Tohru jumped from the coffin to level ground with little effort. She looked around at the ring of Souma's with cold eyes, until they rested on Kyo. Her eyes immediately softened, and she quickly went to him, embraced him …and didn't end up with an armful of cat. He was still human, much to everyone's disbelief.

“Tohru…” Kyo started, “what the hell is going on? Why didn't I transform?” Tohru slowly tilted her head up to look at him.

“It is because we're the same now, Kyo. We both have vampire blood in us. We are the same.” She suddenly gasped. “Kyo, we can be together now…forever. We can be one. One. I am so happy Kyo. So happy…happy…Kyo…”

Tohru's voice faded as her strength ebbed away. Her body went limp in Kyo's arms, yet her arms did not relinquish their hold from around his waist. He gently brushed her hair from her face, his eyes tender. He gently shifted her until he was able to lift her.

“We should probably bring her home,” he said. “She looks exhausted. It's not as if she has anywhere else to go for now, until we tell her friends. That is, if we tell them. We probably should. That Hana girl might recognize her waves. I don't want her coming after us for that.” They all gave a nervous chuckle at that. Even if she was a friend of Tohru's, she was still creepy. They could never deny that.

Suddenly, Hatori pushed Kyo forward gently. “Kyo, we still need to get her home. Just standing out here all day won't do her any good. Besides, we need time before she wakes up to get something for her to feed on, otherwise she won't be a happy fresh vampire recruit.” Kyo stared at Hatori.

“You make it sound like fuckin' girl scouts or something! Recruit my ass,” he added in a low murmur.

So, with lighter hearts, they departed for the honke.

Tohru woke up with a strange, yet very strong urge for fresh, raw meat: still warm, and dripping with bright red blood. She looked around in a daze, and found that Kyo was carrying her into the forest.

“What are you doing?” she asked him. She wondered if he was already planning to leave her, before they had even begun to even be together in the first place. As though he sensed her thoughts, he began to explain to her.

“I think you should feel the need for blood now, right? Well, that's why you're in here: so you can have as much blood as you want, without causing much of an uproar or unexplainable deaths. It's a lot easier that way. Less stress makes the meat taste better. By the way, I'm sorry, but you'll have to feast on your own. I can't stand blood in my mouth anymore. Sorry.” Tohru shrugged it off.

“You are going to stay with me though, right? I do not want to be here, all alone. I would feel so alone…” Kyo pulled her into his arms.

“I would never leave you. I do not want to lose you again. I love you too much and too deeply to go through something like thinking you are dead again. That really pained me…” he paused “…I love you too much to let you go. Oh, Tohru. I love you.”

The two stood together in the clearing of the forest, holding each other in each other's arms, neither wanting to let go of their love.
