Hey guys! Well this is my first Vampire Knight story. I know that the series has ended already and I am very satisfied with the ending, (ZEKI forever!) but I have had this story swimming in my head for about a year and I have finally gotten my laptop! I really do hope you guys enjoy this story, because I certainly did enjoy making it and thinking of new ideas for it! Enjoy!
Vampire Knight: Snow White Queen
Prologue
Pain.
Loneliness.
Hunger.
Blood…
The dark dank room surrounding him was nothing short of a reminder of a familiar time in his life. The walls around Zero Kiryu felt like they were closing in on him making it hard for him to breathe. His throat was painfully dry. His wrists hurt from the chains binding his arms above his head against the wall. He continued thrashing himself against the wall, pulling on the restraints on his wrists hoping to get free but to no avail.
But most of all the pain of utter hunger for blood was almost unbearable; he was on the brink of utter madness. There was a pain from his fangs now elongated and aching to tear open flesh just for a taste of some blood. He could feel his humanity beginning to slip away but he refused to let it go. He was not going to lose his grip and fall to a Level E.
Zero you can't… You gotta wait for her… She will be here soon…
This voice in the back of his head kept repeating this to him. It was a guy's voice but this voice wasn't his however; it seemed to calm him down for a bit.
He waited for what seemed hours and no help arrived.
He began to stop thrashing against the wall, feeling his hope slip away along with his sanity. The bloodlust growing stronger and stronger by the moment making him feel a strong tightening sensation around his heart that only grew worse. He felt himself slowly giving in to the bloodlust. He let his head droop down and he closed his eyes accepting his fate.
As he sat quietly in the darkness he heard small frantic footsteps approaching him. He lazily opened his eyes and lifted his head up. His head felt heavier than he thought and his vision was terribly blurry, he could barely see two feet in front of him. Then the iron-clad door swung open and the frantic footsteps grew closer.
"ZERO!"
A small figure knelt down dangerously close to him, so close he could smell the blood flowing through their veins. The scent was deliciously sweet and yet somewhat familiar. He dared not look the person in the eye so that they can't see what he may look like at the moment.
A delicate soft hand touched his cheek almost without fear. He jumped slightly at the touch. Having this person's hand so close to him was so tempting. If he just tilted his head slightly he could easily bite their flesh and drink the sweet blood that came flowing out. He was about to do this when that same voice that wasn't his own stopped him:
Don't! You're stronger than this Zero! Don't give in!
The hand on his cheek managed to bring his face up to look up at them. He could feel their eyes staring at him but he still dared not to look them in the eye.
"Zero look at me…"
They spoke and he was able to make out their voice; it was a young girl's voice. The sound of her voice seemed to lift the haze a bit like magic. There was such a power in her soft gentle voice it made him calm down more. He still refused to look at her. He felt he was not worthy to look at her and she shouldn't be so close to such a dangerous pitiful being.
"Zero please… Look at me…"
Her voice this time was almost like a whisper, but with a sense of sadness in it.
Look at her Zero
He shut his eyes tightly and breathed a shaky sigh, bracing himself. He slowly opened his eyes and saw the girl who had come for him. She was a petite girl who was wearing the Cross Academy Day Class uniform. Her hair was long, jet black and seemed to just fall down her body like a waterfall. Her eyes were bright, almost glowing green and her long dark eyelashes framed them perfectly. Her pink lips were curled in a sympathetic sad smile.
This girl was so beautiful to him, but he saw her unconditional compassion, sympathy and love in her eyes and her touch. He couldn't help but wonder, 'Who was this girl?'
She slowly inched her face close to his but he tried to back his face away from her. He couldn't risk him losing control and killing her. Her other hand managed to snake its way to the back of his head, gently holding him in place. She tenderly brushed her fingers through his hair as her forehead rested onto his; both of their eyes fluttered shut. He felt her lips nearing his. His heart began to race in panic at how close this girl was getting to him. "No don't… stay away from…me" he managed to say.
The girl let out a soft giggle as if his request was ridiculous. Then she whispered,
"Zero…"
Zero…
The voice in his head following suit with hers and then finally merging with hers,
"It's time to wake up"
It's time to wake up
Well that's it! I hope you find this alright, it's kind of a crappy prologue… Let me know what you think and I will see you next chapter!
