BK Bites~! (chp.22)

BK Bites~! - The Truth, The Whole Truth & Nothing but The Bloody Truth!


His eyes were deadly red and his fangs were bare and out for a vicious bite that would make one pray on their knees to seek for mercy! In his hands, the poor victim was already shaking in fear and it seemed that he was muttering a prayer under his breath. 

Lukas went completely muted as his blood was sucked vastly by the rock star he was supposed to look after. He couldn't move, remained static in the hands of his soon to be murderer. A swift of wind passed by them and Lukas's numb body hit the ground as he was released from Bill's embrace. 

"That's enough, Bill!" Caught by his shirt, Bill was pushed and locked to the wall by Tom. 

"Let me go!" 

"You know things will be easier if you're dead just for a second!" Tom gave Bill his sly grin. 

"No! Tom, no! Don't you dare..." A 'crack' was heard, and Bill was no longer alive. His neck was a good spot for Tom to cut his undead lifeline. 

"Now, all better. And where was I?" 

"Yoooouuu.." Georg gulped, " ...killed Bill." 

"Yeah, only for a sec. He'll come alive after we, done talking." 

"What do you want, Tom?" 

"I'm curious. Was it really Lukas who told you everything or was it our timid drummer?" 

"Gustav?" 

"Who else? He's not Gunther, surely. Gustav, just come out already!" 

"Hey no need to shout, I'm here." The drummer of the band finally showed himself and joined them at the so-called crime scene. "Oh filthy!" As he made his way, Gustav stepped away as possible from the lying victim on the ground, feeling a bit eerie over the bloody mess. "You know, he ain't gonna forget what just happened." Pointing out to Lukas, clearly Gustav knew well both, Tom and Bill could be in a grave danger once Lukas was back to conscious. "But wait, is he dead?" 

"No, he isn't. Good thing, I've stopped that bastard over there before he ended his very own bodyguard's life." 

"Nice!" For merely a human, Gustav seemed to be rather calm upon coming face to face with a bloodsucking creature, perhaps the bond that they have shared within the band made him erase all the fear for the person standing in front of him was just Tom Kaulitz, the guitarist of Tokio Hotel. 

Unlike Georg who was still getting himself together to actually have a conversion with his best buddy in the band who is now a monster that could suck his blood out dry by any chance Tom could get. 

"How long have you known about us?" Tom asked. As the clever one, he knew in instant that Gustav was actually used to seeing him as a vampire. 

"Long enough to get me set up with this plan." Gustav folded his hands and smirked. 

"I assume you put something on Lukas so that we can't compel him?" 

"Guilty." 

"Just to let us expose the real us?" 

"You got that right."

"But why? Aren't you scared?" 

"Why would I? We're family and I don't like how you two keep some dirty secrets away from me and Georg. And if you're a really a monster, you would have taken us two to death a long time ago but you didn't. So it means, you still have a heart for us. I'm just waiting for the moment where you and Bill would finally let out your fangs to us but I guess, I have to do the job, to lure you guys in for that." 

"I'm so sorry, then?" Tom wasn't sure what he really should say upon hearing Gustav's confession. He knew that someday, Gustav and Georg will eventually found out about their bloodsucking alter egos but not any sooner than he predicted. "But how do you expect us to tell you guys like ..'hey, we have something to tell you. We are vampires but you don't need to be scared of us because we fed on human blood and you're human.' I bet you two will run for miles before I could even finished saying the word, vampire." 

"You could at least, try."

"Yeah right. Just look at Georg now. He got scared to shit when we admitted we are one!" 

"I'm not scared. I'm just shocked." Georg said with a shaking voice. His body was trembling, assuming his heart was beating too fast, to have dealt with a sudden fear of having someone whom might drink his blood standing close to him all this while. 

"You know, for the safe sake, I think I should just compel you two to forget all about this." A clever suggestion was offered to his bandmates and with quite a disappointed face, he sighed because it was the only solution that he could think of at that moment. 

As much as Tom wanted them to actually know the real truth about him and Bill, he just wouldn't want them to live in fear or be a part of their monstrous life. Both, Tom and Bill took a pride of being a potential killer without anyone knowing but to hide from these two friends of theirs was like burying themselves six feet under, everyday. It hurts to hide your real identity to someone whom you would share the world with. Live by a rule set between them, they have vowed to not letting anyone else have the slightest clue on who they used to be and still are. Not even family nor friends, it was just too risky for them to trust someone else besides the both of them. 

"Look, you don't have to do that, Tom. We would accept you for being the real you. We're not scared or would let the whole world know of this. We basically grew up together, can't you put a little trust on us?" There was a sincerity in Gustav eyes that shone to his sight and from there, Tom knew Gustav wasn't just playing around for game. To have heard the timid one said that much, it seemed impossible not to think he was just being the best of friend he always is. 

"On you, yes. But he is the one I'm concerned of. " 

"Georg will be fine, right?" Gustav gave a pat on Georg's tensed shoulder while Georg tried his best to crack a convincing smile. 

For a merely a second, Tom was going to agree on letting them free from his idea of compelling them. He then shuddered to think and later, still sticking to his initial plan. "This is all just too crazy. I love you guys but this thing shouldn't happen now. It's well ..too soon. I'm sorry, we're just not ready, Bill's not ready." 

"Good. Use my name, brother." The three of them recognized well of the voice whom just spoken as they turned to see Bill was on his feet to stand up, awaken from his five minutes dead mode. 

"You're the one who's not ready, don't act like you're all macho." Bill rolled his eyes as he glided his way passing Tom and others to land himself on the couch. . "Thanks a lot for the kill, that's gonna numb me while on stage, later." He flexed his neck with a few sounds of 'crack', produced. "And you know, maybe we should just let them know who we really are. In that way, it'll be easier for me to have my meal before show in front of them instead of making excuses of taking a smoke at the back of the building." Bill was grinning and his sharp fangs was clearly visible to the eyes of everyone in the room. 

"Selfish." Tom said in a very low tone while he couldn't help but to feel irritated over his brother's act of diva.  
"Pfft ...diva much?" With nil sense of fear, another one was seen to have been taking on Tom's side, it was none other than Georg, who practically loves making fun of Bill and at the same time, getting sick of his boastfulness. 

"You know, I could kill you with just one bite, Hobbit. So, watch it!" He gave Georg a cold stare and folded his arms as well as crossed his legs, positioning himself in his usual diva sitting manner. "So, what now?" He then, turned to Tom. "Are we gonna compel them or not? And how about that dude over there? Since my idea of killing him was put to waste, what would you suggest, dear brother?"

Being the wise twin, Tom was rather out of any brilliant ideas for the situation. He was caught between letting his bandmates carry on with their lives by knowing that the both of them will be living with two rockstar vampires or simply putting them in the dark again, behind the real truth. 

"Honestly, I'm tired of hiding." Again, Bill confessed his thoughts. 

"Then, don't. We told you, you can trust us." This time, Gustav replied before anyone could say something. 

"The decision is all yours, wise one. Or should I say leader of the group? Say, you always wanted to be the leader right? " In a sarcastic tone, Bill was always being Bill who tend to put the burden on Tom's shoulder. 

It was a hard decision to make but how could he not put any trust on these two poor unfortunate souls who has been living with them since forever? Well maybe not in the past lives but in their present. Indeed, back then killing was the only solution to keep a single soul quiet but somehow, living in the new era, he felt like it's awful to kill the innocence. Then again, was he just being afraid that he couldn't trust Bill or himself? 

He took glance over his best mate, Georg and realized that he was now relaxed than before, laughing all the way to see how the vampire Bill was still the same Bill, diva and proud which cracks the hell out of Georg like all the time. 

Tom couldn't deny that maybe Bill was right, it's time for them to actually live as they truly are in front of Georg and Gustav, they are indeed in a band who will constantly be together at any given time or place. It's hard to always be living undercover among these two because in a way, sooner or later they will eventually know and no matter how or when, they will always accept and support their so called brothers by bond, the Kaulitz twins. And who is he to kid? Like Gustav said, if both him and Georg were food to their eyes, they are long drained dead. So the decision lies to the question; why are they still alive?
