Chapter 1: The hunted
Morning comes and everyone in my shared dorm building is fast asleep. I'm awake, staring at the window. "I wish the sun would go away. It's to bright at a time like this", I said deadly. A gentle knock on my door took my attention. I walked over to the door and twisted the knob. Cracking the door open a little and then peeping through the crack.
A smile on the other side warmed my soul. It made me feel relieved to see a friend with a smile. In a soft voice I whispered, "Good Morning Head Master Cross." He replied with joy, "Good morning to you as well Ezu." I opened the door completely and welcomed him into my room. He patted my head and I blushed slightly.
He turned around then gave me a serious look. My body became tense and I stood up straight. His voice serious and rough, "There's been a spotting and I need you to take care of it for me." I nodded then replied, "Yes Head Master." I walked over to my closet and grabbed my bright blue hooded jacket. He said, "I want you to take Zero Kiryo with you." My grip tightens as I nodded again.
Head Master Cross left my room. He stopped right outside of my door then turned his head. He said, "Zero is here. Let him feel welcome. He will be your partner for awhile." Zero walked to his side, then he walked into my room and gave me a blank stare. He pointed to his gun and I looked at my sword. My sword was checkered of shades of red and black.
Zero sat on my bed then sighs. I glanced at him then asked, "Are you okay Zero?" I looked away then he replied, "Yes." I grabbed the sword by its tsuka. I walked over to the bed and then sat next to him. I placed my hand onto his shoulder then gazed at him. I gently said, "Zero you don't have to do this."
He stood up then walked out of the room. I got up then followed behind him with the sword in my left hand. I stopped outside of the door then closed it. I locked the door then stared at Zero. He was still walking down the hallway. He turned then walked down the stairs. I ran down the hallway then down the stairs, tightly gripping the sword. I ran past Zero on my way down.
Zero ignored me when I ran past him. I felt like a ghost. I waited for him as he took his time. When he reached the door he questioned me, "Why do you do this?" I looked ahead of me with sorrow. I walked away from him without answering. It made him upset. He speed walked up to me and grabbed my arm.
I yanked my arm away from him. I clinched my teeth together then grind them. He said, "Answer me now Ezu." I looked at him then answered, "I don't want more people getting hurt." He had a dull look on his face as he said, "You're just going to end up getting hurt yourself."
I sniffled as I held my tears in. I walked away from him. He followed behind me as we leave the academy. I kept my sword close to me at all times. Zero spoke out then said, "We should split up." I didn't show any signs of acknowledgement as I walk to the side into the alley. He went the other way and huffed. I looked around to make sure nothing else is occurring while we are out.
I saw a dark figure run past the exit. I ran to the end of the way then chased after it. It was dripping blood. Meaning that it was wounded already. Zero touched his neck as he felt a little sick. He examined everything around him as he continue to look around for the turning human. I followed the figure to a dead end. I pulled the sword out of the saya. I dropped the saya then put my other hand on the tsuka.
Zero finally started to smell blood from where he was at. He pulled the gun out of the holster. He ran in the direction of the smell. Another figure came out of no where and knocked me back. I kept my guard up as another figure showed up. Three dark figures were before me. They all pounced at me at once. I screamed out loud. I girl with a bluish grey staff and brown hair came out of no where. She used her staff to hit the turned away from me.
I got up and Zero showed up. I stared at the ground as I felt weak. Zero aimed his gun at the turned then shoot two of them. He had a serious look on his face. I picked up my saya then placed the sword backed into it. I looked up then noticed that she was gone. I felt a deep pain and fear. Zero asked me, "Are you going to be okay?" I nodded as I gripped the saya tightly. I told him, "You are good at this…" He gratefully said, "Thank you." I looked at him and saw he still had a dull look on his face. I rubbed my face with my arm.
I headed my way back to the academy. I didn't stop to acknowledge anything. Zero was way behind me. When I got back to the academy, I went back to my dorm and changed into my uniform. I sighed as I felt my heart beat fast. I heard a knock on the door. I slowly walked to the door and opened it. Head master had a serious look on his face as he said, "Stay here and get some rest. I heard what had happen." I simply replied with, "No… I'm going to class." I closed the door then walked in front of a mirror then put my hair up into a ponytail. I closed my eyes and tried to relax.
