Chapter 3
Ryu:style="mso-spacerun: yes"> The Change
style='mso-tab-count:1'> Pain. It hurt, something deep inside of me hurt.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> I doubled in on myself and cried out in
pain. It spread through my body like
fire. I felt like I was being torn
apart. Where was Ran?style="mso-spacerun: yes"> I needed him. I screamed, arching my back and suddenly felt a pair of arms wrap
around me. I gasped for breath,
clinging tightly to the solid form. I
knew it was Ran, it had to be. I
screamed again, my back felt like it was splitting open.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Soft singing broke through the pain, drew me
to the sweet sound of Ran’s voice. I
closed my eyes and felt my body relax, the pain was gone.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Tears streamed down my face as I clung to
him.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Hush, it’s alright Ryu.” He
whispered soothingly, “It will all be alright.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I nodded slowly, “Thank you Ran.” I
sobbed, grabbing his skintight shirt in my hands.
at the sound of the new voice.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “I’m alright Soma, nothing happened
to me.” Ran said, stroking my back soothingly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “That’s a relief, what was all the
commotion about then?” He asked, coming into view.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> My eyes grew wide when I saw his
wings. The last person I saw like that
hurt me. I cringed slightly, “Soma,
this is my pet, Ryu.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> He smiled at me, “Hey, are you
alright? Ran didn’t hurt you, did he?”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I shook my head, “N-No.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Are you sure everything’s alright.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> Ran nodded, “Yes.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> ightight, I need to go check on
Shio, he’s been being a little headstrong lately, not that it bothers me too
much but I’ll get in trouble if I let him get out of hand.” He said before
walking out.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> A sharp burst of pain shot through
my back when he stroked it and I cringed.
He scowled slightly then took his hand away. His eyes grew wide, “K’so.” He hissed. I closed my eyes and leaned
against him. It didn’t take long for us
to arrive. He took me into a large
bedroom, not even knocking. I opened my
eyes to see Yumi on top of a young auburn haired man. His arms were wrapped around Yumi’s neck, his back bowed in
pleasure. Cries of pleasuchoechoed
through the room as Yumi thrust into him.
I closed my eyes when I saw chains attached to the head and footboards
as well as cuffs around the auburn haired s wrs wrists.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> A beautiful collar with a blood red jewel
sat around his throat. I buried my face
in Ran’s chest. He was silent as waitwaited for Yumi to finish up. I heard two
cries of pleasure and then the soft sounds of people panting for breath.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Ran, what are you doing here?” Yumi
asked and I opened my eyes.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “He’s bleeding.” Ran replied,
walking over to the bed, gently he sat me down so Yumi could see.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I felt gentle fingers probe and I
screamed, “Hush Ryu or I’ll gag you.” Yumi said calmly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I bit my lip and he continued to
examine my back, “Look.” He said to Ran, poking at one of them.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I let out a cry of pain, “What is
that?” He asked softly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Ryu has to be about 15 or 16, he’s
going thh hih his first change. Do you
remember when you changed for the first time Ran?” I saw Ran nod out of the
corner of my eye, “If I remember correctly from my reading, drakes go through a
similar change. I believe that is
what’s happening to him.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I whimpered in pain, “It’s alright
Ryu.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Master, what’s that?” It had to be
the auburn haired one who spoke, he had a nice voice but there was a strange
tone to it, one of blood. I don’t know
how a voice could sound like blood but his did.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “It’s the beginnings of a wing.”
Yumi said calmly, “Aki, this is Ran’s new pet, Ryu.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> Aki moved so that he was in front of
me, “Hi.” He had red eyes; I had never seen anything like that before.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Hi.” I whimpered.
we’ll talk, ignore the pain.” He smiled.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I nodded slowly, “A-Alright.” I took
a deep breath, “Why are your eyes red?” I asked softly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> He smiled, “I’m a vampire.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Yumi made me into one when he took me.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I blinked, “Took you from where?”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> He sighed and looked down, “My
home. It hasn’t been that long either,
a few months.” He looked back up at me, “I’ve gotten used to it though.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> I like being with Yumi now.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Ran’s my protector, he’s saved me.”
I bit my lip hard, felt blood flow down my chin, as they prodded at my back.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> Aki leaned forward and lapped it up,
“Don’t hurt yourself Ryu, they’re doing a good enough job.” He laughed.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I laughed softly then cried out in
pain, “Please, stop.” I whimpered.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Hush honey.” Ran whispered
soothingly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I screamed as I felt my back
tearing. Aki caught me as I fell
forward; holding me up, “Get me a knife Ran.” Yumi ordered.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> I felt the sharp blade slice into my back.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> I screamed, “Hold him still Aki.” Yumi
growled.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> Aki nodded and I felt the knife in
my back again. I screamed, Ran gently
stroked my head, “It’s aht, ht, it will all be over soon.” He cooed.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I squeezed my eyes shut and suddenly
felt something become freed. It was a
liberating sensation, felt actually kind of good, but the pain was still
there. There was something that felt
very strange, wrong.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “What, what is this?” I asked, “It
feels…” Iilediled off.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “You have wings Ryu, they’re not
very big but they are there. They
needed to be freed.” Yumi explained calmly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I grabbed Aki’s shoulders, tears
streaming down my face. It hurt, I
wasn’t sure if I liked it, “How long will I have them?”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “I don’t know.” Yumi said calmly and
I felt a warm, wet cloth on my back, “They could go away or they could stay,
we’ll just have to wait and see.” I whimpered as he brushed against one of my
newly formed wings, “It’s alright.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> They were tender to the touch; I
wanted them to go away. Ran gently
stroked my hair as Yumi cleaned my back.
I kept a firm grip on Aki’s shoulders, my face buried in his chest.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> I heard Aki swallow hard as he looked over
my back.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “What is it?” I asked softly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Don’t worry Ryu.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> It’s just when I’m faced with blood I get a
little hungry.” He looked at Yumi, “I’m still not happy about you turning me
into a vampire.” He growled softly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> Yumi chuckled, “Hush Aki, you’re my
pet and my vampire. I own you and
making you into a vampire is part of being my pet. It’s the way I want you.” He said, continuing to clean off my
back. I whimpered softly as he brushed
the cloth lightly over my wings, cleaning them, “Ryu, I want you to spread your
wings out so I can see them.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I bit my lip and squeezed my eyes
shut. Slowly I complied, it hurt a lot,
I just wanted them to go away, “They’re beautiful Ryu.” Ran whispered in my
ear.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I whimpered softly as Yumi cleaned them,
“Alright Ryu, you can fold them up. up.” He said softly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I relaxed them and felt them fold
against my back. They weren’t very big,
when folded they went from my shoulders to my waist. The base was right below my shoulder blades on either side of my
spine. Yumi pulled me up so that I was
sitting and Ran gently pulled me against him.
I buried my face in his shoulder, quiet sobs escaping my lips.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Gently he stroked my hair, avoiding my
tender wings.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “He’ll be alright, just needs some
time to heal. I honestly can’t say
whether or not his wings will remain.
I’ve never encountered a drake before so this is new territory for both
of us.” He said to Ran, “You need to take care of him, make sure his wounds
heal.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> Ran nodded and gently picked me up,
“Thank you master.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “My pleasure Ran, just make sure you
take good care of your pet.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Of course.” He smiled, carrying me
out.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I leaned my head on Ran’s shoulder,
“I don’t like them.” I whispered, feeling them twitch slightly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “I know but you have to get used to
it. We don’t know how long they’ll be
here or if they’ll go away at all.” He carried me back to his room and sat me
down on the bed, “Your eyes are very pretty.” He whispered, “Like golden orbs
with sprinkles of silver.” His fingers ran through my hair gently.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> He sat down beside me and I laid my
head on his shoulder, “My back hurts.” I whispered.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “I understand.” He kissed the top of
my head; “You’re going to have to exercise them so they’ll get stronger.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> It may hurt a bit at first but as they get
stronger it won’t hurt any more, you have to heal first before you can do
that. I won’t have you hurting
yourself.” I nodded and laid out on my stomach, my head in his lap.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Gently he stroked my hair then down the
center of my back, being careful not to hurt me. I clomy emy eyes, “How do they feel?” He asked.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “It doesn’t hurt as bad anymore.” I
whispered, nuzzling his thigh.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Can I touch them?” He asked with a
sweet smile.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I nodded slowly, “Be gentle though
please.”
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Of course lovely.” He purred and
tenderly ran his fingers over my wings.
It felt nice surprisingly enough, his touch was soothing and it didn’t
hurt my wings, “Spread them.” He ordered softly.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> I took a deep breath and did as I
was told. Lightly he trailed his
fingers over them. I squeezed my eyes
shut. It didn’t hurt badly but
spreading them out did. I grabbed the
tight cloth of his pants and buried my face in his leg.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “It hurts.” I whimpered.
style='mso-tab-count:1'> “Hush, it’s alright, you can fold
them back up.” He said soothingly. I
sighed and felt them settle against my back.
He stroked down my back, “Why don’t you get some rest?style="mso-spacerun: yes"> I’ll put some herbs on it later to help them
heal.”
I nodded,
“Thank you.” I whispered before closing my eyes and falling into an un-restful
sleep.
Awww, poor Ryu, I’m sorry I was mean to him but, oh well; he
has a set of pretty wings now. I haven’t
decided for how long though. I don’t
know if they’ll go away or stay for good yet, we’ll just have to wait and
see. As always, please tell me what you
think. =^^=
