"Promise me you'll come back."
Watanuki stared at him for a second, not knowing what to do. Then he nodded that he would.
 
"Say it." Dômeki commanded bring his face level with Watanuki's.
 
"I'll come back." Watanuki whispered. Dômeki smiled and suddenly his lips were on Watanuki's, it was a child-like kiss, awkward and sweet. As suddenly as they had come they were gone and Watanuki was left in shock, he slowly opened his eyes that he never realized were closed. Then rushed out the door, blushing like no tomorrow.
 
That's as far as I can take it, he'll have to do the rest... Dômeki thought.
 
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
 
Watanuki ran in a general direction, subconsciously knowing where he was going and just letting his feet take him there. He couldn't get Dômeki and their kiss out of his head. He hadn't been expecting it at all but he would be lying if he said he hadn't enjoyed it. He smiled as he reached the cemetery he was so looking forward to talking to Kaiya-san.
 
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
 
"Kaiya-san! Kaiya-san!" Watanuki yelled coming into the cemetery.
 
"Hello Watanuki-kun, how are you?" Kaiya said to the boy running towards her grave.
 
"Well uh...hehe that's kind of a long story so, how are you?" Watanuki laughed nervously.
 
"Dead." Kaiya told him, he looked surprised so she continued. "I have all the time in the world so tell me why are you so happy?"
 
"Well..umm...Dômeki...umm kissed me..." Watanuki blushed like mad and looked away.
 
"Ah," Kaiya smiled knowingly, "Now that wasn't a long story now was it?"
 
"Actually it kind of was you just didn't hear the whole thing."
 
"So..." Kaiya prompted, "I'm dead here I need some kind of gossip yo com'on G gimme the 411!"
 
Watanuki stared...and stared..then stared some more. It was obvious Kaiya-san had no idea what she was saying. Kaiya cleared her throat and smoothed her kimono.
 
"So Watanuki-kun tell me how these events transpired." She said in a dignified tone.
 
"Well after I went into the hotel I went to our room and I thought Dômeki was sleeping, which he was, so I was really quiet and when I got in there I found him on the bed, sleeping yes but with someone else."
 
"Kei." Kaiya breathed.
Watanuki nodded and continued, "I was going to run so they never new I was there but then Dômeki woke up and I ran out of the room he followed me. I told the foreman I wanted a flight to Tokyo as soon as possible. I don't even know why I just didn't want to stay here with Dômeki or Kei or worry about this stupid mission or whatever I just wanted to leave, but Dômeki told Jin, that's the foreman, that I would be staying when I protested he threw me over his shoulder, again, and took me back to the room." Seeing the look on Kaiya-san's face made Watanuki stop, she had a bit of drool coming out of the corner of her mouth and her eyes were bright with a look of teenage hormone induced lust.
 
"Uhh....Kaiya-san?" Watanuki asked and motioned to the bit of drool that was currently making it's way down to her lap.
 
"Oh!" She wiped at the spittle "Sorry, yaoi fangirl, please continue." She explained.
Watanuki laughed slightly kind of afraid then went on, "Well he sat me down on the bed...."
 
Again Watanuki had to stop for blood was now gushing in pints out of Kaiya's nose on to her black kimono.
 
"Ah!" She swiped at her dress and nose then nodded to Watanuki to go on.
 
"He sat me down on the bed and asked me where I was last night, I told him I was at the cemetery and he asked me why and I told him...oh you don't know I can see spirits did you? Yea I can see all kinds of spirits but Dômeki...Dômeki can fight them." Watanuki looked away slightly resentful that all he could do was see the damned things. How was that going to help him if one was attacking him? What he get's to see it beating him? Oh yea real great talent...not.
 
"So, I told him 'It was just something I chose to do.' and he got all upset because he said that to me one time and then we had that whole 'I like you but I'm not going to say it out loud' moment and I went to leave and he told me to promise him I'd come back I said I would and then he kissed me."
 
Kaiya looked more excited than Watanuki and asked bouncing a bit "Was there tongue?"
 
"NO!"
 
Coming down from her high a bit, Kaiya decided a kiss was better than no kiss then asked, somewhat quietly, "So what happened to Kei?"
 
"I don't know, I never saw him after I ran out of the room. Come to think of it you said you'd tell me how you knew Kei-san if I came back..." Watanuki trailed off as Kaiya looked more saddened now.
 
"Yes, I guess I did say that." She said more to herself than Watanuki. "Well what do you want to know?"
 
"Everything."
 
She laughed at that, a sad little laugh with no real mirth behind it, "Well that's easy enough let me start at the beginning....
 
(Enter 'Interview With The Vampire' mode)
"When I was 18 around the Muromachi period (1336 to 1573 in this case around 1508) a man came to stay at my father's inn, he was around 20 or so, and was very handsome. I only ever saw him in the day light. I was immediately entranced with him. He was so different than any other man I had met, he wasn't always bragging about how many men he'd killed or what style of sword he did. In fact he almost never talked of killing unless I brought it up. After he had stayed a week at the inn he wanted to stay permanently, he said he liked this kind of atmosphere.
 
'And you Kaiya-san are the loveliest thing here.' He told me one night. I loved him more than I'd ever loved any other person he was everything I wasn't, everything I had hoped to be. Being the daughter of an inn keeper we we're quite rich and Oto-san had already picked out whom I was to be wed to.
 
' I won't have it.' I told him, 'I want Kei-san.' This was a big mistake for I was not to even look up in my Oto-san's presence and here I was back talking him, telling him what I wanted! He didn't take it to well.
 
'I will not have you married to a freak who doesn't even show his face in the light of day! Why cant you just marry Kaka-san like I have arranged?! he is a good man, a good fighter he's killed hundreds of men!'
 
'I don't want a fighter! I want Kei!' I ran out after that I found Kei and demanded some answers.
 
'Why won't you see me in the day?! Oto-san won't let me be with you, have to go see him! Onegai Kei, onegai!' I was sobbing at his feet. Kei kneeled down next to me comforting me but I didn't care I just wanted him to talk to Oto-san and let me be with him forever.
 
'Kaiya, there is something you need to know about me.' He said to me. I didn't want to listen to him I just wanted for him to talk to Oto-san. 'Kaiya please listen I am not like other men, I am not like other people. I can't survive like you can. Do you know what I am?'
 
'Yes, you are my love, my life, my Kei. I don't care if your not like me I just want to be with you!'
 
'Kaiya, please! I cannot be with you forever, more over you cannot be with me forever.'
 
'What are you saying Kei? I want to be with you forever, I don't care how!' I fell into his arms sobbing. Why would he say something like that to me? Why was he being like this? 'Please tell me what you are!' He didn't tell me, no he showed me. Kei opened his mouth to reveal a pair of vicious looking fangs and I knew, I knew what he was but it didn't really sink in.
 
'Kei, make me what you are.' I told him.
 
'No.' came the immediate reply.
 
'Why?'
 
'I will not burden you with this. However Kaiya, come away with me, tomorrow. We will leave this place and never return, that way we may be together till the end of your days.' I told him yes of course but something went wrong. A servant had been listening to us and told Oto-san. He would not have it, he tried to lock me away in my room but I escaped, the next thing I knew Oto-san came out of nowhere and....he...killed..." Kaiya trailed off.
 
"Kaiya-san? Did your father kill Kei?" Watanuki asked. She shook her head no, then pointed to herself. Watanuki gasped. "You your father killed you?" Kaiya nodded.
 
"After that Kei found out and in a bout of rage he attacked the inn. He never got to kill Oto-san. Oto-san set him on fire and burned him alive.....or dead."
 
"What do you mean or dead?" Watanuki asked.
 
"Boy you really are a slow one aren't you?"
 
"Hey! Just tell me what you meant!"
 
"Oh come now you don't know by now? Think of Kei and what I just told you." Kaiya looked at him and suddenly it hit him.
 
"Kei-san is a......"
 
"Vampire. Well vampire spirit now. That's why your friend can see him so clearly. Kei was never alive, but never dead. So in his undead death he remind...well undead." Kaiya explained.
 
"That makes sense but what doesn't make sense is why Kei-san never passed on and why Dômeki and I were sent here to make him an alive undead." Watanuki said.
 
"Oh, well that's pretty simple actually. Kei didn't react to the flames right away, they took their time on him which was so hard to watch, then he said 'Lord what fools these mortals be! I cannot be killed so easily, I will stay with you the rest of your days! I will avenge Kaiya! Mark my words old man I will not move on until you and your whole family is dead, all save one.' The he began laughing manically, I was frightened even in my spirit state, then he continued, 'Do you know what I will do with that one I leave alive? I'll make him me!' Then he attacked Oto-san ripped into his neck with razor sharp fangs he, drained Oto-san of almost all his blood he was on the brink of death, but that same maid, that Kami forsaken maid hit him over the head with a pot. I watched him wither on the ground unable to help, unable to move and slowly very slowly my Kei became what he is today."Kaiya looked down as she finished the tale.
 
"Kaiya-san...gomen nasai...gomen." That was all Watanuki was able to say.
 
"No it's fine it was a long time ago. But I must tell you something Watanuki-kun before you go any further on this journey you must know that in order for my family to protect themselves they changed their name." Kaiya looked at him with the upmost remorse. And this frightened Watanuki to no end.
 
"T-to what?" Watanuki managed out.
 
"Watanuki."
