[Vampire Knight] Briar

【Time moves in a circular motion. There is no progress or progress in history, but only changes. 】

- Nietzsche (Eternal Return)

Time is a burden.

It never stops.

For vampires, ten years, 100 years, is like a snap of the fingers.In the blink of an eye.

It's been 1000 years since I was a teenager.

I was already married to Kaoru.

We also have two children.The older one is a girl with the same long forest green hair as Kaoru, named Iris Fuji Chika; while the younger one is a boy who has inherited my silver hair color and my atavistic purple eyes.I maliciously named him Iris Lotus, hoping that he would grow into a white lotus like Jack Su, and not disappoint his 'beauty'.

But when these two children were young, I could still tease them, but when they grew up, they all grew crooked.

The eldest daughter, Iris Fuji, has grown from a sweet little angel to a capable strong woman. In addition, her ability is "poison", so far she has not grown into a female Rakshasa who can bravely break into the enemy's position alone. I am afraid Thank goodness for that.

My youngest son, Chang Teng Lian, has grown from a silly white sweet to a successful white cut black.Add to that his ability - mind manipulation.I think he deserves to be the next Jacksu chosen by God after me.

Sometimes when I look at my domineering eldest daughter, I will remind her a little: "Qianxia, ​​be careful, a girl who is too serious will not be able to marry easily."

"Isn't there me? Mom, when I was young, didn't you often tell me that I was my sister's foster husband?" At this time, my youngest son would help his sister out with a smile.

"No, according to your sister's personality, I always feel that she will marry me a wife in the future. Eh? By the way, I think the love of You Ji's family is very cute. The daughter of You Ji and Jiu Lanshu, Marrying her made Jiu Lanshu crawl out of the ice coffin in anger!"

"No... Mom, don't forget, I'm a girl." Qian Xia sighed, but she wasn't very surprised, she just complained lightly.

"Wuwuwu, my poor little Qianxia, ​​you said that you have inherited something from your father, you have to inherit his 'upright' character. Wuwuwu, I'm sorry for you, Qianxia."

"Alas..." Qian Xia rubbed her forehead helplessly because of my fuss.Then imitating her father, she opened her arms and gave me a bear hug.

"Ah, it's so cute, my little Qianxia." I turned to rub her face, she was a little awkward, but it didn't stop me from getting close.

"Mom, why do you feel that you have a personality that dislikes your father?" Lian teased me from the side.

"Where is it? I love you all the most. Dad is my big cutie, and you two are my little cuties." I reached out and ruffled the short silver hair of the little boy.He avoided my hand and acted like a baby to his sister: "Sister, look at my mother, she bullies me."

"No, my mother and I are on the same team."

"Hey... If you don't help me, I'll tell my mother about it."

"Stop pretending to cry." I patted the back of Lian's head, "What are you two hiding from me?"

"There was a vampire from Volturi who sent flowers, jewelry, and love letters to my sister," Lian answered quickly.

"Shut up!" Qian Xia blushed, it seemed that she had a good impression of that vampire.Just when I wanted to ask my 'daughter' about the girl's thoughts again, she gave me another big news: "I haven't told my mother yet, you are pursuing the little girl from Jiulan's family that I saw in Japan last time." What about my sister?"

"Wait... Miss Jiulan?" You Ji has only two children, and there is only one with Jiulan as her surname—she and Jiulanshu's daughter, Jiulanai.

Just when I was thinking whether to encourage my big baby son to be 'courageous' or to tell him 'wake up, if you like someone named Jiulan, there will be no good results', my son of Jack Su , very shyly said to me: "But, love replied to my letter last time. We also agreed that the next time we meet, she will take me to play in the old castle of the Jiulan family."

The doorbell rang, and someone opened the door with a key.

"I'm back." Kaoru's voice came from the hall.

"Xun!" I hurried to the hall and hugged him.

"Hey~" Behind me, Lian exaggeratedly covered her eyes and made a funny sound.

"What's your name? They're old couples. It's not the first time we've seen these two sticky people." Qian Xia said to her brother righteously, but it made me feel even more embarrassed.

"Ahem," Kaoru cleared his throat, and then said to us, "We need to go back to our hometown again."

"So fast? It's only been two months." Lian asked in surprise.

"Jiu Lanshu is awake." Xun said softly.

For a while, we were all silent.

We've been predicting this day since Cone Zero died protecting several children a year ago.

Two months ago, You Ji asked us to go back, saying that he wanted to see old friends again.I took our family back to my hometown and lived with her for two weeks.Before leaving, Yuuki held my hand, her eyes blushed slightly, and she wished us good luck forever.

She still has the face of a girl, but her wide and gentle eyes show that she is no longer young.Her whole body is filled with the breath of love and being loved. Obviously, she and Zero once lived very, very happily.

I cried and hugged her tightly, and told her that if there was anything wrong with Ai and Lian, I would take care of the two children.

She said softly: There is still a hub, okay?

I just hugged her tightly and didn't speak.

She said to me softly, Liang, this is also Ying's wish.

I looked at her, nodded, and finally agreed to her.

"Mom, don't be sad. Isn't this what Aunt Yuki has been longing for? In this way, she can be reunited with Uncle Zero in heaven." It was Qian Xia who spoke first, and she comforted me softly.

"Yes, mom, look, when we said goodbye two months ago, Ai and Lian looked very calm. They have already accepted this matter. Ai also wrote to me, saying that next time he will take me to Jiulan So, don’t be sad anymore, we and Dad will accompany you in the future.” Lian also said the same.

Kaoru put me in his arms and patted my arm gently: "It's okay, Ryo. If you're sad, just lie in my arms and cry for a while."

Because I had expected it before, I was actually not very sad.

It may be that decades ago, Ying transformed herself into a human being, and followed Wakaba Sarai to die of natural old age. I cried until I almost fainted, which left them with the impression that 'I am fragile'.That's why my big princess and little prince, as well as my big monster, are so worried about me.

In fact, compared to the sadness of Yuuki leaving, I am more worried about Lian.

Eldest son, the big devil father of the girl you want to pick up has woken up, mom, I'm afraid you will be beaten to death by Jiu Lanshu.

More than 1000 years later, the transportation is very convenient now.

In almost two or three hours, we returned to our hometown.

After putting my luggage back at the iris family's villa, I arrived at the place Kaoru had mentioned, where Jiulanshu was located.

Through the window, I saw Jiu Lanshu hugging Ai and Lian, with happy and gentle arcs in his brows and eyes.

That was something I had never seen on his face as a vampire.

That kind of ordinary and reassuring happiness.

Yuuki's heart is now beating in his chest.

This scene made me suddenly think of the spiritual realm belonging to Yuki that I happened to pass by one day thousands of years ago.

There, Jiu Lanshu took a leisurely doze in the sun with her newly born love in her arms.

Yuuki tidied up the room clumsily, and dried the white sheets in the sun.Then, she walked gently to his side, and placed a light kiss on his long eyelashes.

I didn't bother You Ji, but used my ability to strengthen her dream to prevent others from waking her up.

Chai rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea.

In Yuuki's dream, the two lived a happy and ordinary life.

There are no pure-bloods, no burdens, and no despair and mutual harm.

Just as a pair of ordinary ordinary couples, knowing each other, loving each other, raising children together, being lingering, and caring for each other until the years turn gray.

At that time, Jiu Lanshu's expression was also the same as now.

warm and happy.

There is an urge to cry.

"Aunt Liang!" Jiu Lanai was the first to discover me through the window, she broke free from Shu's arm, opened the window, and waved to me.

"Ah, Aunt Liang is here?" Zhui Shenglian also ran over.She liked me, maybe, because she and I both had silver, Mary Sue hair.

"Ai, Lian? Who is this?" Jiu Lanshu also walked towards me.After unloading his heavy burden, he finally had some vitality that belonged to his life.

that is really good.

"It's a good friend of Mom and Dad Zero, Dad Shu." Ai rushed to answer.

"Uncle Lantang said that Aunt Liang was also a good friend of Shu's father." Lian continued.

"That's not true, Mom said, Papa Shu once wanted to kill Aunt Liang!" Ai retorted.

Jiu Lanshu patted the two of them on the head with each hand. "Okay, stop arguing."

Then, he turned to me: "Hello? Are you her friend? Did I... try to kill you? I'm sorry, I apologize." He looked at me very guilty, and his behavior was gentle and gentle.I seemed to see the Jiu Lanshu who had confessed to me when I was young and had attracted much attention.

He is the gentle yet powerful pure-blood king in the center of the crowd, so Lan Tangying, Takuma Ichijo, Ryuka Zaozono and Akatsuki Jiayuan all follow him.

"I'm sorry... did I remind you of any bad memories?" Maybe I stared at Jiu Lanshu for a long time, so he asked me in a soft tone.

"It's okay." I came back to my senses and smiled at him. "I was thinking about something just now, and I was a little lost in thought."

"Have I ever hurt you? I'm very sorry, but I don't remember. I heard that I was a very excessive person. If I ever hurt you, I will apologize to you." Jiu Lanshu said.

"No, no. You didn't hurt me." I quickly replied, "I was just thinking about Yuuki just now. My name is Iris Fuji Ryo, and my original name before marriage was Hiakura Ryo. Yuuki...if she can see you It’s going to be very, very happy now.”

"I heard that this... belongs to her?" Jiu Lanshu put his hand on the position of his heart on his left chest. "Madam Changteng, may I ask, if I give her my heart back, will she wake up?"

"Papa Shu!" "Papa!" Ai Helian hurriedly stopped him. "This is my mother's wish, please don't be willful!"

"Really?" Jiu Lanshu rubbed the hair of the two of them in a good-tempered manner, "I won't. I won't worry you anymore, sorry." He looked at me with a pleading tone. "For her...can you tell me more about her?"

In a daze, I seemed to hear Lan Tangying's loud voice, he said to the young me: "Liangzi, you don't know. Lord Shu is a very gentle person."

Yes, because he is too gentle, but too stubborn.I have too much in my heart, but I am unwilling to share a little burden with others.Therefore, he and You Ji will miss it in the end.

I looked at Jiu Lanshu again, and said to him: "Okay. But, next time. We just came back today, and I will take a rest tomorrow. I will take my husband Kaoru Kaoru and my two children Qianxia and Lian Come here together. When the time comes, what do you want to know about her? If I know, I will tell you all."

I went back to the iris family's villa again.

Kaoru poked her head out of the kitchen when she heard me turn the key. "Leng, you're back..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lian jumped out of the room and said, "Mom, mom, did you see love today? How is she?"

"Ai has always asked you to call her 'Sister Love', Lian?" Qian Xia also walked out of her room.

I waved to Qianxia and Lian, and when they both came to me, each of them dropped a kiss between their foreheads.

"I saw Jiu Lanshu today." I stood up and said to Xun. "He is no longer the hopeless and dark look in my memory. Because of Yuki, he finally has a feeling of being bathed in the sun. I think that should be when you made friends with him tens of thousands of years ago, His original appearance. We will meet him tomorrow, and I think you will become friends again."

After dinner, Qianxia, ​​who had been relatively silent all this time, asked me secretly: "Mom, is that Uncle Jiulan we are going to meet tomorrow the one you told me in the bedtime story?"

Hearing Qian Xia's question, I remembered that when Qian Xia was young, every time before going to bed, I would coax her with a little bedtime story.

From the fairy tale of 'the princess and the prince lived happily together at last', to the incompleteness of 'the little prince never waited for his little fox', and finally to 'the match went out, and all the beautiful and warm scenes disappeared like a bubble 'The tragedy.I hope she can experience some ups and downs in these stories, and learn to live happily in this imperfect world.

Once upon a time, I told her the story of Yuki.

"Mom, in fact, I have never really understood why you and dad can always love each other like pure blood, but Aunt Yuki and Uncle Jiulan can't be together?" Qianxia asked me like this.

I thought about it and said to her, "Because your mother and I are a Mary Sue."

"Have you ever seen an unloved Mary Sue?" Smiling face +1

"Have you ever seen a Mary Sue who has things going wrong?" Smiling face +2

"Have you ever seen a Mary Sue who can't get a happy ending?" Smiling face +3

"...Mom, stop making trouble. You laughed so hard that I panicked." Qian Xia looked at me expressionlessly.

"Forget it, I won't tease you." I sighed, and tucked Qian Xiasen's long green hair behind her ears. "Because of trust and mutual dependence." I said to her, "Love is based on an equal relationship. It's not about who has to give more and who has to ask for more.

"Single giving and taking will not last long.

"Your lover should be the one who supports you and spends your life together. The two of you are like the two ends of a seesaw. You are strong and the other is weak, and you are weak and the other is strong. This is the love between lovers. But if, always One side is strong, the other side is weak, and there are concealments between each other, which can easily cause suspicion.

"Many lovers separated because they no longer had trust.

"Also, you shouldn't try to control someone else's life, even if that person is your lover. Respect and try to understand your partner's choices, but pass on your own ideas to him. Relying on each other is not overprotective, Not to mention completely relying on each other. You just become each other's most solid backing and most tacit partners.

"For example, your father and I. We are heart-to-heart. I believe in everything Kaoru does for me. Similarly, Kaoru also believes in everything I do for him. If I have anything, I will communicate with Kaoru first. Ask him what he thinks; when Kaoru communicates with me, I will not hide my inner thoughts from him because of sympathy and awkwardness. Moreover, I respect every choice Kaoru makes, and Kaoru has never, because he is stronger than me, Instead of interfering with my decision. We try to communicate 'what the other party wants', and try to achieve 'the vision in the other party's heart', and give it to each other. It is not 'what I think, what the other party wants' '."

"Do you understand, Qianxia?" I kissed her on the cheek. "Now, I have passed on my Marysu ability to you, my little princess. You will always be happy." I said to her with a smile.

I sent Chika and Ren back to their room, and Kaoru and I went back to our bedroom.

I rolled and rolled on the big bed between the two of us, and acted like a baby to him: "It's so boring, Kaoru."

"...playing games?" Kaoru handed me the game CD in our cabinet.

"No." I turned my head away.

"Then...shall I read to you for a while?"

"I don't want to hear stories."

"play chess?"

"It's the 2736356th time we've played chess, and you won 1537361 of them. It's really boring."

"..." Xun couldn't think of anything else to make me happy, and he showed a slightly sad expression.

"Don't show such an expression, Xun." I suddenly changed my face, reversed the frustration just now, and pushed him on the bed with a playful smile: "I made up those numbers. As for me today - I want to play more You. Chirp~~" I kissed the red marks on his Adam's apple, then bit down on his veins, and handed him my wrist at the same time.

After I was full, I said to Kaoru: "The self-healing ability of pure blood is really disgusting. The marks I left on you will disappear quickly. Sometimes, I really want to turn you into a human being. Leaving every inch of my bite mark, let others know that you belong to me."

"...Otherwise, you use your fangs to tear those wounds bigger? I will try to suppress my healing instinct. Uh...don't lick, cool. Your bite is very shallow, which will speed up the wound healing."

…………

"Xun, if one day even I get tired of the day-to-day life, then let's sleep together. I will take you to explore the dream world, and then reincarnate and return to this world." Before falling asleep, I crawled into Kaoru's arms and whispered to him.

"it is good."

"Have we agreed?"

"Well, we have made an agreement. Let me use my heart, which is constantly beating as the ancestor, as the proof of our agreement."

"Okay, it's a deal!"
