Third person POV
Yoichi's friends were shocked at his statement.
"What?!" Yuichiro commented.
"A what?" Kimizuki added.
"No way..." Mitsuba gasped in shock.
"Atsushi-kun was bitten by a vampire?" Shinoa asked.
"Yes," Yoichi replied back with a nod, "and I saw it, too, and also, there is a young girl in that scene as well."
"A young girl?" Yuichiro replied back with semi-confusion.
"Yes, Yuichiro-kun, she was dressed in a traditional kimono."
"About that vampire who bit Atsushi-kun..." Kimizuki responded back, "...let's check it out now."
Yuichiro and the others nodded in agreement and went to where Atsushi and Saya were according to Yoichi's directions.
There, however, saw that the vampire Mikaela was gone, and only Atsushi and Saya remained. Atsushi was now calm as the sea, and Saya was calm as well.
"Atsushi-kun!" Yuichiro called him.
Atsushi and Saya heard that and looked at him and his squad.
"Oh, hey, guys," one of them said to them.
Yuichiro and the Shinoa squad were taken aback to see Saya floating next to their friend.
"Are you that girl in a kimono?" Shinoa asked Saya.
"Yes." Saya smiled at them, "I am Saya, and I am Atsushi's mountain spirit and guardian spirit. Nice to meet you all."
"Woah, nice to meet you, Saya-chan," Yoichi replied with positivity.
Shinoa and Mitsuba were stunned to see such a spirit, for both of them had never seen a spirit before; not to mention, both saw her young youth and beauty as well.
"Okay, whatever," Yuichiro responded back to Atsushi and Saya. "Anyhow, Yoichi told us that you two encountered a vampire in white. Did you see that vampire?"
"Yes," answered Atsushi back.
"But, he went off," Saya added.
This frustrated the Shinoa squad a bit because they wanted to hunt and exterminate that vampire.
But it was lucky for both sides since Mikaela was once a close friend of Yuichiro.
After that, Yuichiro took a look at Atsushi's blood-stained part of his military uniform and asked him if the vampire Yoichi had seen earlier bit him. Without fear, Atsushi replied back, "Yes, that vampire did it, and I am willing to let him do that without fear."
The boy from the Red Scarlet Army then snickered in a bit of mischief.
"You did?" Kimizuki replied back. "Why?"
"We felt bad for him being thirsty for blood," Saya replied on Atsushi's behalf.
"Are you sure about that?" Mitsuba responded back with concern. "Did Atsushi become a vampire, too?"
"No, I am fine," answered Atsushi calmly and confidently.
Yuichiro and the Shinoa squad were dumbfounded to see how Atsushi managed to stay as a human after being bitten by Mikaela.
Meanwhile, at the underground lair of the vampires, Mikaela bit Krul Tepes because he needed a bit more blood. And after that, the vampire boy didn't feel any thirst for blood, and that confused and stunned him a lot. Later on, Mikaela went to the outside world to look at humans and test this new disabled feeling. There he did so and didn't feel any thirst for their blood. Now, Mikaela believed that the blue aura power he unknowingly received from biting Atsushi's blood had temporarily disabled his thirst for human blood and became a bit amazed with positivity, knowing that he wouldn't be thirsty for human blood...for now.
