Dreams of a soul mate

Warning later in the chapter there is severe comedy, if you do not wish to laugh and fall off of your chair.....read it anyway!

Chapter six: The sixth dream

D awoke more refreshed than he ever remembered being in his life and looked down to see a similar look on the symbiot\'s face. They looked at each other before they began the process of getting ready to leave. The symbiot noticed that D seemed to be getting stronger, but he wasn\'t about to say something about it, he was really in no mood to try and discover the reason behind it. So they left the inn silently, mentally preparing themselves for the battles that were yet to come.

They\'d been riding for two hours none stop when D sensed something up ahead, something made his blood run cold, there were mutants ahead...powerful mutants.....and lower level demons..../This can\'t be good.../

\"Um, D do you sense that?\"

\"Yes......I think we\'re about to meet some serious fucking trouble ahead........Are you ready?\"

The symbiot sighed, \"As I\'ll ever be.\"

D pushed forward alert for the slightest shift from the enemy which he didn\'t have to wait long before a giant demon attacked, successfully killing D\'s new horse. D pulled his sword, slicing its head off before landing face-to-face with a horde of demons, the symbiot gulped audibly before summoning some of its own special talents and sucking at least a hundred demons into the oblivion within itself, somewhat evening the odds for D. The other demons growled menacing before a Devil stepped forward and glared down at D from top of his black stallion, \"This is what we have to slay.....humph, you aren\'t even worth the effort, Orion! Get up here and kill this.....half-breed!\"

A Devil with flaming orange hair stepped forward and drew a sword of flame from a sheath before attacking blindly, slicing the skin on D\'s left shoulder, revealing the silver mark where she had bitten him. The Devil scoffed as he brought the sword down to clash with D\'s, even his sword began to shake with the power emulating from the flaming sword. Visions of silver passed through his mind, he would not let this thing keep him from her, he would not let ANY THING keep him away. He eyes glowed eerily blue as the power of his father coursed through his veins, through the sword, and through the Devil before him. The others watched with wide eyes as the shadows pulsed around him, his power calling to them.

\"You dare to call me a half-breed? You aren\'t even powerful enough to fight your own fight....you call on whichever Devil is closest.......now........DIE!\"

D attacked with his sword, the energy still flowing strongly with his anger and his determination. The symbiot smirked as Devils and demons alike were killed for the woman of D\'s dreams. /I certainly hope this is the worst of the challenges, this is tough enough as is......this forest isn\'t going to survive this one.../

All but one was finally dead, the last Devil remaining had blue hair and red eyes, he was the most powerful out of them all and he seemed quite determined to kill the hunter before him, or die trying. \"I admit Aubrey sorely underestimated you, but I will destroy you, have no doubt in that.\"

\"You may try to destroy me, but in the end we will see.\"

They attacked each other with their swords clashing and sparking with energy, the Devil actually knocked him down, slashing several gashes into his left side and was prepared for the kill when the wind carried a soft scent and whispered \"D.....\"

D\'s eye lit wit his inner fire, she knew he was in trouble....the Devil sent a small flare of energy into the distance and D heard the resultant cry of her voice...this one could cause her pain....HAD JUST CAUSED HER PAIN! His sword moved faster than physically possible, decapitating the Devil in one blow, \"No one harms my....mate.\"

He stood and began walking through the bloody mud, towards the next town, his wounds trying to close and the sun soon to rise. He felt weak, knew that at the moment he really was, but he wasn\'t about to admit that outright, all he wanted to do now was sleep, restore his energy, and hold her securely in his arms. The symbiot felt his body trembling as he moved, it wanted to give out and just lie on the ground, but it knew just how stubborn he could be. Hours of walking with the sun mostly up it was almost 10 in the morning, but D finally made it to the inn, he walked in and the people gasped at the sight of him. He ignored them and walked to the innkeeper, \"I want a private room.....and I do not want to be disturbed.\"

The innkeeper looked at him skeptically, \"How long will you be staying?\"

\"Probably two days.\" He threw two bags of silver onto the counter.

\"That shouldn\'t be a problem, may I ask how you go into the shape you are in now?\"

\"No, but you just did....didn\'t you?\"

\"I really must know, did the demons attack you?\" He sounded worried more for the safety of his inn than of D.

\"Don\'t worry, they won\'t be back....I killed them all.\"

\"Even the Devils?\"

\"Yes....thus the reason I look like shit right now. NOW, may I have my key, I would really enjoy some sleep?\"

The innkeeper took seven silver coins and gave the rest back to D, \"Since you got rid of those bastards this is all I will take from you. Please enjoy your stay and your room number is 77 on the 7th floor.\"

D nodded and walked slowly to the stairs, even the symbiot felt his reluctance to climb them all, but that was the price he paid for privacy. 120 stairs later D was standing outside of his room, standing out of breath and trying to get the damned key into the hole. (I hate when that happens, bugs the Hell out of me!) After several attempts the symbiot took the key and unlocked the door. D stripped and promptly passed out on the bed...without barricading the door.

/// D awoke slowly in the room the he knew as hers, she was sitting beside the bed watching him closely, \"How do you feel?\"

\"Like hammered shit.\"

She looked at his wounds and winced, \"Come on,\" she stood and lifted him into her arms.

\"Where are we going?\"

\"I am going to give you a bath....that should help a little, then I\'m going to heal the wounds that are having difficulty healing on their own.\"

\"How are you going to heal them?\"

She smirked, \"You\'ll see.\"

\"How much further is it until I find you?\"

She flinched before sitting him down on a soft chair, next to a large clawed foot bath tub full of steaming hot water. \"You have two, maybe three more nights until you reach me....but there is still one more obstacle in your path...D I don\'t want you to fight it yet, wait a while, regain your strength.\"


\"It is THAT bad?\"

She nodded solemnly, \"Your last obstacle is what keeps me here D....something powerful enough to lock my own powers away from me, Promise me you\'ll get back to your full strength before moving on!\"

\"I\'ll promise.....if you promise me something...\"

\"Anything.\"

D leaned forward and kissed her lightly, \"You won\'t stop my dreams with you while I\'m recuperating.....I want to spend my days and nights in your arms until I\'m healed.\"

\"D I had planned on that anyway, I swear it D.\"

\"Then I will not move on until I\'m at full strength.\"

She picked him up carefully before climbing into the large tub with him between her legs and began washing the dirt, grime, and blood from his body. The symbiot grumbled from his palm and D brought him up to look him in the eye, \"D there\'s someone in the room at the inn!\"

\"Do they mean me harm?\"

\"Um....I\'m guessing yes...\"

\"It\'s all right, I\'ll take care of it,\" she stood and set D back in the water gently, \"I\'ll be right back, don\'t go anywhere.\" She walked out of her bathroom and back towards her bed room with a wicked little grin on her face.///

***In D\'s room***

\"Should we just kill him?\"

\"Nah, I think if we can take him to the Devil Lord alive he\'d be worth more.\"

They looked down at D\'s body....covered by a thin silk sheet, \"O.k. then how do we get him out of here while he\'s asleep?\"

\"I don\'t know....drug him?\"

\"WITH WHAT YOU IDIOT!\"

\"Shhhh, be quiet before you wake him.\"

D\'s eyes opened silver as he sat up in the bed and looked menacingly at the men, which happened to look up and gulp, \"You have to the count of three to get the FUCK OUT OF MY ROOM!!!\" His hand went to his sword and the men left screaming. D\'s body chuckled as it barricaded the door and put up a complicated pattern of spells and charms that would discourage anyone from trying to enter the room. The body returned to the bed, laid down, and closed its eyes once more.

/// She walked back into the bathroom chuckling before climbing back into the water with D. \"What did you do?\"

\"Let\'s just say no one else will be disturbing your rest while you are with me....\"

The symbiot laughed out loud, having gotten to see exactly what she had done, \"Oh THE LOOKS ON THEIR FACES!!!\"

D raised an eyebrow at the symbiot before looking at her questioningly, she shrugged and tried to look innocent as she began washing his hair. \"Come on honestly, what did you do?\"

She smirked as she began washing his chest, \"I simply borrowed your body and scared the shit out of them....that\'s all.\"

D smiled, \"You borrowed my body?\"

\"uh-huh.\"

\"What exactly did you do to them?\"

\"Nothing much, just brandished your sword at them.\"

\"Just brandished a nine foot long, freshly sharpened sword at them, eh?\"

She smiled sheepishly, \"Well, they were gonna do you harm.....they\'re lucky I didn\'t butcher them into little pieces...\"

D kissed her neck softly and the smell of her blood invaded his senses, she tilted her head, giving him better access to what he wanted. His fangs lengthened, but he fought the urge to bite her, \"Why is the urge to bite you so much stronger now?\"

\"You\'ve been injured, you need the blood...\" Her voice sounded hesitant...

\"And what\'s the reason you aren\'t telling me?\"

\"And because you\'ve accepted me as your mate....\" Her cheeks flushed a light pink, \"You\'re wanting to complete the bond, the one that binds us for the rest of eternity...\"

\"You mean the rest of our lives?\"

\"No, I mean for eternity, the type of bond you so crave is a soul bond....it can never be broken....not even by death.........\"

\"So you\'d be mine forever?\"

She looked at him uncertainly, \"Yes,.....but D I won\'t let you do this until you are sure that it is what you want. I won\'t bind you to me until you are certain.\"

He touched her hair gently, \"If you think that I\'m uncertain......you are very mistaken. I\'ve felt it since the first dream, but it wasn\'t until today that my heart told me that it was true. I felt the same instinct as my father to protect you when that Devil sent the ball of fire at you and I heard your cry out.\" D looked at her and noticed her eyes were not meeting his, \"Where did that fire hit you?\"

She looked away, keeping her front towards him, \"It\'s nothing big....\"

\"Where did it hit you?\" His voice was stern as he lifted her chin to look into her eyes.

She turned around to reveal blackened skin along her lower back, \"It\'ll heal in a few more hours...\"

D growled as he put his arms around her possessively, careful not to cause her any pain, \"I should have killed that bastard a lot slower....\"

She leaned back against him, her charred skin cooled by his touch, \"You really want me for the rest of eternity?\"

\"Longer even.\" He kissed the back of her neck softly, \"I want to be with you always, in life and death.\"

She sighed happily, \"If that is truly your wish, then I will stay by you always.\"

\"How do we seal the bond?\"

She turned to him, \"Be glad you are here for a couple of days, come on let\'s get out of the tub and into my warm bedroom before we do this.\"

They climbed out of the tub and dried off with the big, white, fluffy towels before walking into the warm bedroom. D walked close to her, feeling himself get angry all over again at the damned Devil that threw the flame as her blackened skin moved and some peeled with every step that she took. He stopped her and gently lifted her into his arms and took her to the bed. She smiled softly up at him before kissing his cheek, D looked down at her wishing he could help heal her faster, \"How do we begin?\"

She smiled, \"Sit on the bed with me, D.\" D sat down facing her, curiosity showing clearly in his eyes. She pulled out a silver blade that glowed with energy, \"This is an ancient blade that has been passed down my family line for over 10 generations, now I want you to observe what I do and when I am done you do the same.\" D nodded and watched as she took the blade and ran it over her heart until the blood flowed freely, \"Drink of me and drink of my love, feed from me and feast upon my soul.\" She pulled D\'s mouth to the wound and as he drank he could taste the difference in her blood, there was no more holding back, her power was in her blood as well. Her voice was breathy as he began drinking deeply from her, \"Mind.....body......and soul, let us be joined, from now until the end of time..........ketsueki, ryoku, koigokoro, Ai shite ru, D.\" (In blood, power, and love, I love you, D.)

D pulled back with her silver blood still on his lips and took the offered blade from her hand, he pulled back and ran it over his heart letting the blood flow freely as the words etched into his mind, his own voice was hoarse with desire, \"Drink of me.....and drink of my love for you, feed from me.......and feast upon my soul.\" He led her mouth to the wound and felt the pull at his own soul as the binding began to complete itself. \"Mind.....body......and soul, let us be joined from now until the end of time.....................ketsueki.......ryoku......koigokoro.......Ai shite ru,\" He didn\'t know her name....after all this time he was in love with someone that he didn\'t even know her name.....he felt her mind brush his and her name finally rang to his mind, \"Amara \" With the bonding complete their souls pulled through one another, joining them as one, now all D had to do was to find her in reality.

She pulled back with his blood still painting her lips red and kissed him, the desire coursing through them both was too powerful for either of them to control, so instead, they gave in. D laid her down on the bed, never noticing that the blackened skin on her back was gone or that his wounds were healed, his mind was solely on the woman before him, his mate, his love, his soul. He feathered kisses over her neck, her chest, and so much lower, stopping just shy of his goal to flick the silver belly button ring teasingly with his tongue before moving down to the nest of silver curls. He let his tongue flick lightly against her before plunging in, his fangs pressed against her, but not hard enough to do any damage and he used his tongue to thrust into her as he would another part of his anatomy shortly, but first, he wanted to drive her crazy with want, just as he was feeling now. He had no idea that by bonding with her, his desire and want of her would grow, and now he decided to make her scream his name...(D your ego is showing)

He pulled up a little to suck at the most sensitive part of her, pulling ragged sounds from her throat as she was pushed closer and closer to the edge.....D let his fangs graze her as he sucked lightly, waiting for her to hit the edge. Just as she hit the edge and her body began to tighten, D pulled up and quickly thrust into her, forcing another orgasm before the first one had even ended. Her throat constricted as the second orgasm hit hard and his name forced its way out of her in a constricted scream. D grinned ferally before he suddenly found himself looking up into eyes that had bled to pure silver and were looking down at him hungrily. She growled low in her throat, the pure instinct to bring her mate pleasure overwhelming all else, she rolled her hips against him tightening her body with every move, her skin seemed to glow in the darkness of the room giving her an ethereal look, like a goddess seducing a mortal man. Her hair loosened from the loose braid she had put it in before the bath and spread around them like a silver curtain as her nails raked across his skin drawing thin lines of blood. She arched back until her head hovered over his legs, letting the pressure grow as she continued the almost chaotic thrusting against him.

She pulled herself up and looked down into his clouded silver-blue eyes, she lowered herself to the bloody lines on his chest and licked the blood between each thrust. She moved her lips to the base of his throat where her mark remained on his skin, with the bond she could feel how close he was to releasing, so she waited until he was standing on the knife blade before sinking her fangs into his throat, pushing him forcefully over the edge, \"AMARA!\" His voice cracked as he called out her name, his body shuddering with hers with the shear power of the orgasm.

Amara pulled back and lovingly cleaned the wound, holding him to her as she rolled to the side. D put his arms around her tightly, as he licked her throat before biting into it over his own mark, Amara sighed happily before curling up against him. \"I won\'t be waking up anytime soon will I?\"

\"No...like I said, be glad that you paid for a couple of days at the inn.\"

\"Maybe I should have paid for more........I think I\'ll be here for more than two days.....I don\'t want to leave her.....\" He looked down to where he was getting hard again, \"Think the symbiot can take control long enough to pay the man?\"

She laughed softly, \"He could try,\" she looked down at the symbiot which seemed to be pouting.

\"All right I\'ll try, but how many days do you want me to pay him for?\"

\"Just pay for the rest of the week, I think we can find a couple of ways to entertain ourselves.....\" He looked pointedly at Amara with a seductive smirk plastered on his face.

\"I\'d imagine so.....\" her cheeks turned a light shade of pink at the indications in his voice.

The symbiot coughed, \"I\'ll do it, but I wanna join next time......this just watching and not participating because I\'m worried that I\'ll screw up some mating ritual is killing me.\"

D chuckled lowly, \"I would imagine so....\" The symbiot disappeared to try and control D\'s body.....\"Now, before he gets back......\" He grabbed her quickly and pulled her to him.///

****Back at the Inn****

D\'s body stood unsteadily as the symbiot tried to move it to get dressed, \"How the bloody hell does he get into this damned armor so fast??!!\"

///As D was preparing to enter her again, a piece of his armor appeared on him, Amara laughed hysterically as D tried to take it off, \"SHIT!\"///

The symbiot cursed as the armor forced its way off again, \"DAMN IT ALL!!!\" He grabbed a pair of pants and slid them on before buckling them tightly.

/// D finally removed the armor and turned back to her, right as she broke out giggling again and he felt pants appear on him.....\"OH, COME ON!!!\"

\"D, I have and idea....\" She grabbed the zipper and undid it, freeing him while leaving the pants on, and breaking the zipper so it couldn\'t be redone. \"There, I don\'t think the symbiot wants to go downstairs naked...\"

Realization dawned on him, \"Oh,....I hope he now realizes how hard it is to get that armor on.\"

\"Yet it was so easy to slide off.\" A shirt appeared on D, covering him baggily, Amara smiled as she slid herself onto him and under the shirt.///


The symbiot fell over as the sensation of being inside of someone coursed through his body, \"Damn....maybe I should stay like this for a while......GAH!\" He fell down the last couple of stairs as he felt her body tighten around him, he ran to the front desk, \"I wanna.....um.....pay...oh......for the .....gulp......rest of the Week!\"

The innkeeper looked at him oddly but took another 7 silver coins, \"There you are, please enjoy your stay with us.....um sir are you all right.....you look rather flushed?\"

\"I\'m fine....um.....if you\'ll ex......excuse me.....I have to....hmmm.....go!\" He ran up the stairs as fast as D\'s legs could carry him. He collapsed on the bed and began stripping back out of the clothes, but instead of rejoining the dream he stayed in D\'s body, experiencing the sensations that D felt within the dream.

///D sighed at finally having her again, letting his body go with the urges that it had long been denied, the urge for blood, sex, and love. Amara was all to happy to reciprocate, giving herself to him freely as only a true soul mate could.///

The symbiot closed D\'s eyes and could actually see what was happening, which did not help the fact that he was hornier than hell at the moment, but with the sensations he felt, it was almost as if he were D. He felt her body, move beneath him, felt every tightening of her muscles, and heard every moan she made. The symbiot even came when D did and he couldn\'t quite believe that an orgasm could feel so good that it was close to painful.

///D collapsed half on top of her and half to the side, raining kisses along her as exhaustion finally won out over his instincts, he laid beside her and for once as sleep laid its claim to him, he felt content.

Amara watched him sleep for a while before her own exhaustion won out over her worry, /I truly hope for both of our sakes that you are strong enough to destroy him. because if not......hmm....I only hope my strength that has added to yours is enough, I don\'t want to think about what\'ll happen if it isn\'t./ She shuddered at that before her eyes finally closed, and a very confused symbiot rejoined the dreamscape.///

A.N.: Sorry for the wait people, but I hope you found the wait worth it. As always please, read AND review. Thanks to everyone that did review last time too!
