slayers_desire | Take one week of training, add a dash of slaying

After their first night together at the new training center, April established a new schedule for Rain to maintain. For the next week, she was very insistent on certain things. He woke at 8 a.m., ate a healthy breakfast and then after a half-hour would start stretching exercises. From 9 a.m. to noon, Rain would go through a series of martial practices. One hour with a familiar weapon, one hour with an unfamiliar weapon, and one hour with two weapons.

At noon he was have lunch, and time enough to have a nap. At 2 p.m., he would be directed to the library to study for one hour, then from 3 to 5 p.m., he would return to the training center. He would be run through a multi-dimensional session, with April tracking how well he was doing (so he could break his own records in the future).

After a supper at 5 p.m., April would insist again on a nap, then when he woke at 7 p.m., to stretch before heading to his world. And to his job. The night would be spent protecting his city. Slaying. Of course, when he returned to the training center, by 4 a.m., April would get all the information on his performance. And give him a massage, and sent him to bed.

Some nights they would share a bed. Other nights, if he was too tired, they would take to their separate beds. The nights that they had enough energy to share passion, it was tender and wouldn't extend Rain's energy.

By the end of the week, judging from Rain's scores on the training missions, and his increasing accomplishments in the field, April knew he was ready for something stronger than a mere vampire. And from some investigating, she discovered a low-level demon that was creating troubles for some innocents in Rain's neck of the woods.

So when it came to just before night, this time April brought Rain to a table that had several occult items laying on it. "Okay Rain, tonight you have to deal with a Der Kindestod. The name means "child death" and it feeds off of children by sucking the life out of them. He has been affecting a Children's Hospital nearby your city."

"One of the difficulties is that the Der Kindestod is invisible to all adults and can only be seen by children, madmen and the feverishly ill. His eyeballs extend and latch onto people, leeching their life force." April bit at her bottom lip, looking up at Rain, "For you to fight him, I am going to have to make you sick."

"Mother made sure it would not last longer than 24 hours, but the bug still has to work through your body."

"This sucks" he grumped, almost childlike cuteness in his voice as he broke into a cold sweat.

Bathing him with the wet rag again, "Mmm my poor whiny bitch." April could not help but find him cute in this state.

"Hey!" he whimpered. "Not cool. I saved some people today." He mock pouted.

"You did." She kissed his forehead. "And you helped some children take strength over their fears."

"You performed like a champion."

"A Champion... I like the sound of that."

"You missed." he pointed to his lips. "Oh wait... do I have puke breath?"

"I did not think you wanted me kissing you, after all you have to save your strength." April explained. Kissing his lips softly.

"I never want you to NOT kiss me." he said quietly.

"Awwww sweet." April kissed his lips again. It was very hard not to take advantage of him in this situation.

"Can you cuddle with me? I'm a little big for a teddy bear and I don't feel so hot."

"Give me one sec..." April pulled off the patient's gown from him. Then she moved to lay beside him, concentrating to slightly chill her body to provide him with some comfort.

"Are you okay?" he asked, concerned. "You feel cold. I didn't make you sick did I?"

"Too cold?" April returned some warmth to her body. "I was trying to make you feel comfortable."

"How are you doing that?" he asked. He wasn't sure what temperature he'd prefer with the cold sweats... yes, he did.

"Just your own temperature is fine, I just want to feel you close."

"One of my vampire powers that I learned." April explained. She returned to her normal temperature and snuggled close to him.

"Oh.." he muttered. He could see how that might come in handy in certain situations.

"Thank you. Feels good to have you near."

"I will always be near." April promised. She placed a hand around him, trailing her finger down his chest.

"I hope so." he whispered, snuggling closer.

"I promise."

"I'll hold you to that." he said, leaning over to give her another kiss. "Will you sleep with me?"

"Of course I will Rain." She always has, when he needed her. After all, she likes being able to share a bed with him. Being so close to him, without worrying about anything else.

"Good." he nuzzles her neck. "I need to sleep now.. I feel awful.. but you beside me makes it better."

"Sleep Rain. And know I will be here when you awaken. IF you need anything... I will be here."

He's out like a light within seconds of her telling him so, fluid rattling in his lungs and snoring.

((awww. Think we could fade on this one. Anything in particular you would like to do next?))
