I should explain who we are…
I'm Yami Sennen and my partner/lover/mate/whatever you want to call it is Atemu Sennen. To put it simply, we're vampires. We aren't your ordinary, run-of-the-mill vampires so we are able to walk in the daylight but what we are is a secret for now. Atemu and I have been together for 5000 years and have been married for the majority of it.
When we were human, we had a little slave who loved us with all his heart. After we were turned, he committed suicide in fear of what we had become. We had bitten him in our blood-blinded state and when we awoke, he had already slit his wrists and bled out on the floor. We had been searching for his reincarnated soul for a very long time. We go to high school in various countries over the years in search for his maturing soul.
Back to the amethyst eyed one. The scent of his blood entices us on more ways than one. It carries a divine note that usually only angels carry. We figure it is his innocence that allows him to have such a note in his blood. He will more than likely lose it when it loses his virginity. Then there is notes of strawberries and lilacs, hints at his blood will taste very sweet to us… like a dessert. Lastly, there is the faintest hint of cinnamon… The same hint of cinnamon that our slave lover had when we smelt his blood. We won't know for sure until we bite him whether he is him or not.
Our little slave lover had the sweetest tasting blood, almost like having a piece of fruit. It was refreshing and fulfilling at the same time…. But I'm fantasizing a bit too much. Atemu is trying to get my attention. It seems our amethyst eyed one has caught us staring at him. He looks hurt… I wonder why.
"Don't look now," We could hear the dark brown haired one easily. "The Sennen partners are staring at us." It seems we are infamous for being married. Not that Atemu or I really care about that. "I wonder what got their attention."
Yugi gulped. Something about the dark brown haired one's comment sparked that reaction. I wonder what it could be. It would be nice if he had some sort of attraction to us. Would make biting him much easier.
"Unless you want something," The blonde American one yelled at us. "Leave!" We glared at him. It was not nice to tell us to stop watching our prey. Not that a human would really know that was what we had in mind. "It's not nice to stare." We left the group alone a slight smile forming on our lips. Tonight we will capture our prey.

Atemu and I had followed the amethyst eyed one and his friends to the mall were they met up with more friends and, to our surprise, another vampire. It took us a while to find out where they had disappeared to but when we did, we found out something about our amethyst eyed prey… he could really sing.
I recognised the song as Affirmation by Savage Garden and we began to watch as he lost himself to the music. I knew that he could sense our presence as he looked up at us with an almost annoyed look. He shut his eyes and took a deep breath.
"I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness." he sang staring directly back at us. He was sending a message. He, or at least our slave lover's soul, forgives us and knows we are unhappy because of what had happened to us and then to him. He looked away, singing the next lines before looking back up at us pointedly.
"I believe in love surviving death into eternity!" I briefly glanced at Atemu. We could have taken that two ways. Either he loved us up until and after he died. Or his reincarnated soul loved us as well which meant his love for us was truly eternal.
"I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye." He kept singing, not realizing he had shocked us to the core, before he handed the microphone to a black haired child before sitting down out of our viewing range. We moved away from the window and found a seat ourselves.
"He has to be Heba's reincarnation," Atemu said with his hand over his heart as if to calm it down. "Why else would he direct those lines at us?"
"What about that last one tho?" I asked softly. "Does that mean he regrets killing himself?"
"Possibly…" Atemu replied. "We will have to ask him when we capture him."

We waited at the intersection where Yugi usually left his friends to head off towards their homes. The intersection where he usually started his journey alone.
"Are you sure you'll be ok, Yug?" the blonde one asked our amethyst eyed one. I looked at Atemu curiously.
Nickname or real name? I asked through our mind link. It's an odd name for it to be real.
"I'll be ok," our amethyst eyed one replied with a smile. He looked so innocent and naïve to what was about to happen to him that it almost made me feel guilty.
"Call us if you need us, ok Yugi?" the girl insisted taking his hands in hers. "I don't want to hear from your Grandpa that you were molested on the way home."
Yugi sounds more like a full name. Atemu replied with a fanged smile. Works well for him.
True. I replied giving him my own fanged smile. Yugi means game after all. Just like Heba meant game. All the more likely he is our reincarnated Heba.
Our amethyst eyed one… I mean Yugi… waved goodbye to his friends and headed home alone. We followed carefully, watching him as he began to hum softly to himself. I almost froze in my tracks when I heard it.
Yami… Atemu's voice sounded shaken. That tune…
Yes… I swooped at Yugi frightening him. We must act quickly. I think Heba's soul is close to the surface. We both heard Yugi give an unmanly scream before breaking into a run. It was a task trying to keep up with him as he dodged through small alleyways and into the park trying to lose us.
Do you think he knows it is us? Atemu asked quietly. I didn't answered as flew down to trap Yugi after he fell to the ground. You scared him to death!
I did not! I retorted angrily before looking back down. "Oh… I did too." Picking up Yugi's limp body, I turned to Atemu. "Shall we?"
"Of course," Atemu took to the sky. I followed more carefully with our precious bundle in my arms. "Yami…"
"Hmm?"
"Try not to scare him again when he wakes up." Atemu raised an eyebrow at me. "The last thing we need is for his reincarnated self to be closer to the surface than Heba's soul."
