Leon’s Cheongsam

Part 2

 

D stared coldly at the palace before him. Not so much a palace more like a medieval castle, black with spiraling towers. D wrinkled his nose in disgust.

“Who can such a wealth man have such bad taste?” he thought. Using his kami powers he transported himself inside the castle. He stood in the main hall, looking up a huge staircase that separated at the top.  The floor was draped in red carpet and surrounding the room were statues. He glared at the statues in cold disbelief. The statues were of men and women, everyone more beautiful then the other.  Yet there was something sad about the eyes, something way to human about them for D’s liking.

“Ain’t they beautiful Count? Almost as good as the Detective?”

D span round to come face to face with Tai Shan who was coming down the stairs.

“What Detective?” D asked looking innocent

“Don’t play games with me Count. You and I know perfectly well that “Lee Avalon” in nothing more then the human you desire “Leon Orcot!”

D stiffened and gave Tai Shan an evil look “Stay away from him!”

“Why? Have you claimed him already? You certainly move quick!”

D blushed and then regained his posture “I am not of those morals and I won’t allow you to claim him!”

“You won’t allow me? Ha! If he is unclaimed, I have as just as much right to claim him as you do!” Tai Shan looked at his collection and smiled. “What do you think of my collection?”

D looked at the statues again, and realized what they were; he turned to Tai Shan in disgust. “If this what you offer them? You’re a disgrace to our race Demon!”

“How can you say that? I only give them what they ask for, a way to stay young forever!” he walks over to one of the men, he was wearing a bole tuxedo, with long brown hair tied in a ponytail.

“This one was actually my lover, we were so happy together when I noticed he started to age. I didn’t want him to grow old and die, so I turned him in to a doll!”  Tai Shan touched the dolls chest and sighed, “I love Daniel, probably as much as you love your Detective!”

 “So you condemn him to the life of a doll?  That isn’t love, that’s selfishness and possessiveness!”   Hissed D. he then looked at the other dolls “Your claim that you still love him…and yet you’re unfaithful?” Suddenly a fist went for D but he quickly caught it before it made contact to his face.

“I have never been unfaithful! All the people you see here save my lover, have come to me! Asked my to give them beauty everlasting” he suddenly burst out laughing “of Course there is a price, they become one of doll collection”

D released his hand and started sadly at the statue of Daniel “That doesn’t explain your motives towards the detective!”

“Why should I answer your question? You forget the one simply fact that he has come to me!”

“Only because of his work Tai, not because of an attraction!” D hissed in annoyance.

“Really? Then why didn’t he knock me away when I touched him, while he won’t even let you get near him!” he saw D stiffened and continued “Detective Leon, you and I have something in common. We all have a deep loneness, that screams with need for someone else. Tell me Count D can you fill the empty void in his heart? Or is the burning passion of the human heart to much for even you?”  

D remained silent and was trying to hold back tears. Tai look at Daniel and continued “Have you ever wondered why our kind are so drawn to humans? Or why we so easy fall for them. It’s because of they passion, once we taste it, we don’t want to let go. When I bonded with Daniel, I felt a fire rage though my blood; I felt my sweat soaking my skin and I felt Daniel cum fill me, warming me from the insides. Do you understand why I can’t let Daniel die? Do you understand the longing I’ve had to endure without that passion?”

“You still haven’t answered my question, Tai? What has this got to do with the detective?”

“Haven’t you been listening?  It’s for the passion that I’m doing it for! I sensed it, just as you do and I want it!”

“You can’t have him!” 

 

Tai throws a fireball at D. D sees it but has no time to move out of the way. It hits his in the chest, sending him flying back. The kami quickly recovers, getting back onto his feet. Tai runs up to him and throws punches and kicks at D who easily blocks every one of them. D does a backwards-flip kick and nails Tai below the chin. Instead of following through with the flip, he stops halfway and propels himself back on his feet, hitting Tai with an uppercut at the same time. Tai spits some kind of green stuff at him. D flips forward so that it misses him. He converts his flip into a jump kick and smacks the man right in the face. When he lands, she flips again. This time over and behind Tai. Tai is on his feet just in time to get whaled with a roundhouse from D . Tai gets up again, hissing at him. He charges him; D ducks under him and flips him over. He land on his feet and try's to hit him again with a roundhouse. The Kami ducks out of the way turning around at the same time, sweeping him off his feet. As he starts to rise, he kicks him in the head. D rolls over pinning him to the ground with his leg.  Suddenly Tai turns him self to mist and transport himself to the top of the stairs.

“Tai, I demand to know what you’ve plan for Leon, now!”

“To bad! You just have to wait. I’m having a ball tomorrow night, Leon will be there, lets see who can claim him before twelve o’clock with out using any of they special gifts”

“I accept that challenge!”

Tai laughed and once again turned to mist leaving D alone in his great hall. D’s eyes were narrow and he shook with a deep rage. He transported himself back to the pet shop and ran up to his room. The animals all looked at each other in concern, they have rarely seen the count mad and they knew all to well from the least incident, to stay away. Q-Chan knew it had something to do with the human detective and flew up stairs. D was looking though his huge wardrobe pulling off Cheongsam after Cheongsam off they hungers and throwing them all over the place. Q-Chan transformed in to Sofu D.

“Child what ar…” Suddenly a heavy Cheongsam was thrown over his head along with another and another. Sofu D dug himself out of the Chinese clothes and yelled at D. 

“D WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU DOING?”

D stopped what he was doing and stared at his Grandfather.

“Grandfather, what are you doing with my cheongsams?” 

“I should be asking you that child, not the other way round”

D turned back to his wardrobe and then called out excitedly “Grandfather”

“Yes?”

D pulled out a beautiful cheongsam; it was white with butterflies on it that had splits that stopped at thigh.

“What do you think of this one? Do you think the Detective would like it?” 

Sofu resisted sweat dropping at this question and put all of his effort in to keeping his composer. “It looks fine, but what does the human have to do with you mistreating your clothes?”

D started around his room shocked at the mess he had created. He had always been careful with his cheongsams and his room was always clean.

“Well, at least it’s not as bad as Leon’s apartment!” D thought but then aloud “I’m going to a ball with the Detective, that’s all Grandfather”

Sofu D had not been on Earth for years for nothing. He quickly grabbed D and opened his cheongsam up, revealing the huge bruise on D’s chest.

“Tell me child, what has Tai Shan got to do with this?”

D sighed and went in to the whole story, starting with Leon needing a cheongsam to when he and Tai agreed on the challenge.

 

“So I came back here, and started to search though my wardrobe in hope that I can find a cheongsam that can catch Leon’s attention and put Tai to shame!”    

“That dam human is making you take stupid risks Grandchild, but since my loathing runs deep for Tai I will help you in such a matter”

This statement shocked D, thinking his grandfather would certainly not help since it meant him claiming Leon. 

“First of all none of this cheongsams will do!” said Sofu as he looked at D clothes “Not one of them will match anything Tai has, I can assure you! He’s a spoilt brat, and his clothes are one of a kind and he only wears them once! It would seem we would have to go and wake up Chang!”

Sofu snapped his fingers and both he and D were transported in to Chang’s shop. Chang was sitting in fount of a TV eating a pot-noodle. When Sofu and D appeared, he jumped out of his skin knocking the noodles all over the floor.

*SHIT * he screamed in chinese as the hot water burned him.

“Sorry for disturbing you this time of not Chang, but we are in need of you skills” said Sofu D paying no attention to the burnt human.

“Why what has happened?”

D once again told the story, and Chang listened frightened by what he was hearing.

“This still doesn’t explain why you are here in my shop in the middle of the night!”

“D needs a cheongsam, the most finest and most lavishing cheongsam that you have ever made, by tomorrow night!”

“By tomorrow night?! I cannot possibly…”

“You can and you will, even if you have to work all night! If it’s extra you want then we’ll pay!”

“It’s not a matter of payment, it simply can not be done!”

D was looking around Chang’s workbench hoping to find something that he could wear. He can across many designs, some very plain, some very revealing, some colorful, he was about to look else were when a particular drawing came in to his line of sight. It was beautiful; it was dazzling it was what he was going to wear to the ball. If this outfit didn’t capture Leon’s attention, nothing would.

“Grandfather, Chang over here, I’ve found what I want!”

To the men come over to him and looked at the drawing.

“That’s perfect. I must say that it’s a work of art Mr. Chang!” said Sofu looking at the drawing.

“It’s only half done I’m afraid, plus I can’t let you have it!”

If looks could kill, Chang would be nothing more then a pile of ash by now.

“That design was sent to me with the strict instructions that I am to make this a one of a kind outfit, for the emperor”

“The emperor won’t mind if I had one as well. He’s one of my best customers!” smiled D looking at the picture.

“Alright D, if you say so. But I will not be responsible if wind of this gets to the emperor. Follow me!”

The two D’s followed Chang in to his backroom and there on a mannequin was the outfit, half done. 

“We better get to work!”
