Yay, first Vampire Knight fic! I love this manga…'cuz I love vampires! They're so cool. Ok, I'm weird. Well, if anyone reads this, then they don't think I'm entirely weird, right? Hey, does anyone know if there is an anime for Vampire Knight? PM me if there is…and does anyone know what Absolute Boyfriend is called in Japan? PM me if you know that too. Anyway, onward with the fic! BTW it's probably not that great. It's drabble. Kinda.

Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Knight. If I did…nothing would be different. Except that Yuki and Kaname would be married or something.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yuki sat up in bed, shivering from the frigid air. She stood up, then almost fell over, dizzy from loss of blood. Looking out the window at the snow, she thought back to the previous night.

"I don't know how much longer we can keep this up, Yuki," Zero told her as she once more offered him her blood.

"Don't worry about it. I want you to. As long as you're not in pain anymore."

"You know I can't hold back if you offer. You know I don't want to be this."

"Well, you are, so there's nothing we can do about it but accept it. Why can't you just accept yourself? I accept you."

He looked with vacant silver eyes past her, and into his reflection in the mirror behind her. A heavy sigh escaped his lips as he tried to explain it to her.

"I've told you once, I've told you a hundred times. I hate this wretched existence. I was never meant to be the one which I seek out. This was not meant to happen."

Yuki's chocolate eyes searched his cold ones. "You have to understand. If this happened, then fate had other plans for you. Everything happens for a reason. Everything and everyone has a place in this world."

"But when a human is transformed into a vampire, where do they fit in?" he argued, "They were not born that way. It was not meant to be. Even Kaname understands that. He said that it wasn't to be."

"Since when do you listen to Kaname?"

"I never said I did."

Numbly, Yuki placed her hand over the bite marks in her neck. The skin was still painfully sore from the penetration. How ravenously he had devoured her! She squeezed her eyes shut, wondering why she felt regret. She had told him he could. It wasn't like they had never done this before. But why should she have second thoughts now? Maybe it was because of Kaname. He viewed her as his. He may have never quite told her directly, but it was apparent he thought so.

She glanced nervously at the sky. It was growing dark again. That meant that night classes would start soon. However, she was too weak to carry out her duties. In fact, she'd been so weak she had not been able to attend classes. Zero was sure to be worried about her, not to mention remorseful over what he'd done.

Sure enough, there was a sharp knock on the door. Quickly, she unlocked it and opened it. The swift movement caused her head to spin.

"Yuki, are you all right?" Zero asked, catching her as she stumbled.

"I'm fine," she said quickly, not wanting him to hate himself anymore than he did.

"You weren't in classes today."

"Oh, that's only because I was too tired…" she mentally slapped herself. Why was she lying to him?

"I thought I'd stop by before I resumed my duties as part of the disciplinary committee. I brought you some food."

"Did the headmaster make it?"

"Unfortunately."

"Is it, um, 'his style'?"

Zero nodded in affirmation.

Yuki grimaced. "No thanks. I'm fine."

Truth was, she felt too sour in the stomach to eat anything. She couldn't tell him this, of course.

He set the bag down on her desk, along with a long, slender package wrapped in tissue paper. She gazed curiously at it.

"I'd better go." He muttered, turning, "Take care of yourself."

"Don't worry about me, I will."

He walked out, shutting the door quietly behind him. She picked up the package, and opened it. Inside were a dozen white roses. In the middle of them was a single red rose. Blushing, she understood what it meant.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kaname stepped outside the Moon Dorm into the cold, winter night. His breath came in small clouds of fog as he stared up at the full moon. The sky was beginning to cloud up, a sure sign of snow. Looking at his watch, he figured he had a few minutes before classes began.

At that moment, he saw a shadowy figure out of the corner of his eye. He turned slightly and squinted. No, no one was there. It had to be his imagination. Or maybe it was Aido fooling around again. He made a mental note to have a talk with him about that.

The snow on the ground crunched over his feet as he made his way across campus. He wanted to see Yuki before classes started. He had to talk to her about the new student, Mizuki. There was something different about him. He seemed to have alternative motives. He was planning something, Kaname just didn't know what. Neither did he have any evidence. He just didn't smell right. He smelled like he was disintegrating, slowly rotting. Kaname suspected he could be a level E vampire.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Yuki lay back in bed, staring at the shadows forming on the ceiling. She felt uneasy. Something wasn't right.

She rolled over, then looked back at the shadows. It seemed as though one of them had changed location. Frowning, she stared intently at it. The form slightly resembled one of a person. She couldn't be sure. Perhaps it was only her imagination playing tricks on her.

A wave of dizziness overcame her. These periodic spells were the reason she had to be careful after letting Zero partake of her. Every time, he unconsciously drained her of more and more life. The incidents were becoming more frequent to. She couldn't satisfy him. He needed more than she could give him.

She closed her eyes, trying to fight of the sickness erupting from the bottom of her stomach. Suddenly, she heard a soft scratch on the window. Before her slowed reflexes had time to react, there was the sound of breaking glass. She opened her eyes to find herself staring up into the deformed face of a vampire--a level E vampire.

Terror froze her body. Her adrenaline failed to kick in and aid her. She could only stare helplessly up into the razor sharp silver fangs.

The demon grinned wickedly, leering at her. He ran his long tongue over his fangs, hungry for her blood.

"Move, Yuki, dammit, move!"

The fiend darted down, moving too fast for her eyes to see. He sank his long fangs into her neck, piercing her veins. She bit her lip, drawing blood, for the pain. His teeth sunk deeper, causing electricity to shoot up her spine.

"Help," she gasped, her voice cracking.

Horrified, she discovered she could barely utter the sound at all. She couldn't call for help. He was piercing her throat too deeply.

Gazing up at his face again, she realized he couldn't be a level E vampire. He didn't have the right smell about him. There was something different about him…

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Kaname felt as though something weren't right. Yuki wasn't at the gates of the school, ready to perform her duties. No matter what, she always showed up. Something had happened to her.

Turning around, he rushed towards her dorm. Ignoring campus rules, he burst in, and took the stairs three by three. Something was very wrong. Something was happening to his dear girl.

--------------------------------------------------------

Yuki tried to scream as the vampire bit down harder. His sank his lower fangs into her soft flesh, and began to clench his fangs together. Her breaths came in shorter, wheezing gasps as he cut into her larynx.

Just as he was snapping his teeth shut to break off her life, Kaname broke the door down. Even though he was mortified at the scene that lay before him, he failed to hesitate. His adrenaline kicked in, and sent him rushing towards the wretched creature. He took hold of the beast, and forced his jaws apart, releasing Yuki from his vice-like hold. The demon hissed at him, lunging to attack.

Kaname dodged the blow with graceful ease. Seizing Yuki's gun, he shot, to end the mayhem quickly.

Much to his surprise, the beast survived the bullet. It had been a mere graze due to its shocking agility. The creature retaliated with sharp claws, and performed a most unheard of act--it bit Kaname. Kaname's brown eyes filled with surprise as the devil tore deeply into his neck, trying to cut off his life.

Yuki weakly reached for the gun as blood poured from her neck. Meanwhile, Kaname recovered from his shock and tried desperately to tear the fiend from him. The wicked being from hell only smirked at his pathetic attempts.

Yuki managed to grab the gun. Shaking, she aimed and shot. Screaming, the beast turned back towards her. It was relentless.

Kaname took the chance and seized it by the throat. "Mizuki! What's the meaning of this atrocity?"

Mizuki smirked once more. "That secret I shall carry with me to my untimely death. Alas, you shall never know, oh my leader…Kaname Kuran, may I take your name with me to the grave. Predictably, you shall die as well, only not quite so kindly. Fate, as it shall, take you bitterly in her hands, and I pray that she might cut off your life in that day, that day not so far into the future."

"Cease your senseless babble. What do you mean by this monologue of yours?"

Mizuki laughed, a horrible screeching laugh that was reminiscent of nails scratching a blackboard. "Ah, that is for you to figure out; however, I might as well grace your lordship with a vague answer. It simply means that your days are numbered. There is something out there, something in this world that even you, the great Kaname-sama cannot evade. Your fate is sealed. Something, which cannot be denied, is lurking in the dark recesses of your soul--it is your nature. You cannot run from it. One day," here, he pointed at the ceiling, eyes raised heavenwards, "You will have to face it…yourself. And Yuki…what she is to you, what she is to Zero, will all come back to haunt you in a most unsavory manner."

"Must you speak in riddles?"

Mizuki laughed once more, then sputtering, gasped, "Remember, no one can escape their fate."

He drooped lifelessly in Kaname's grip. Yuki held her wound, looking at Kaname in confusion. She had no idea what Mizuki had been trying to say.

"Don't worry about it, Yuki," Kaname finally said, regaining his composure, "I'm certain that he himself didn't know what he was saying."

She nodded, then tried to stand up. He dropped Mizuki and gently pushed her down.

"Let me take care of this."

She gulped, blushing, breaking into a cold sweat. "K-Kaname," she gasped, noting that his wound had already healed.

He lowered his mouth to her neck, his lips hot on her severed flesh. He gently shared his power with her, allowing the damage to be healed. Then, he pulled away.

Heart pounding, she sat up. "Thank-you, Kaname."

"Anything for my dear girl." He told her, smiling sadly. "I think I should stay with you for now."

She gladly accepted his protection and lay back down. Little did she know that their ordeal was only beginning.
