Chapter 1: Farewell & Introductions

"Onii-chan, where are we going?" Yuuki asked excitedly, jumping up and down in her seat.

"We're going to go see some people." Kaname said, looking at the young child endearingly. Chocolate brown orbs met his own red brown eyes and she smiled, crawling across the seat to pull the sleeve of his loose shirt. He picked her up easily and settled her on his lap, burying his head into her soft locks.

"Onii-chan! That tickles!" She giggled, fidgeting on his lap. He sighed and stared out the window, seeing the beach front drawing nearer and nearer. He was going to miss her far too much and leaving her with others was going to be the worry of his heart.

"Wah, Onii-chan, what is that?" Yuuki asked in fascination, having never seen the sight before her.

"It's the ocean, Yuuki. You'll get to play there soon." He told her softly. Soon enough the car stopped and Kaname's heart sank. He opened the car door and Yuuki went flying out, admiring her surroundings with the eyes of a mere toddler.

Seven vampires bowed in unison. "Welcome Kaname-sama."

Kaname nodded as the driver unloaded Yuuki's luggage.

"Wah, you're so pretty, onee-chan!" Yuuki said, pulling at the hem of Ruka's dress. She looked down at the child with an expression of shock. Kaname quickly picked Yuuki up in his arms and whispered into her ear.

"Yuuki, you're going to be staying with these people for awhile. I'll try to visit you and write to you." He told her.

Yuuki's world stopped.

"What? Where are you going onii-chan? Take me with you!" She cried into his shoulder softly.

"Yuuki, you can't tell them I'm your brother, call me Kaname. I'll always love you." He whispered reassuringly into her ear, but all understanding was gone from Yuuki.

"Ichijou, this human child is very important. All of you, take care of her while I'm gone. If I hear that any harm has come to her, you will suffer the consequences." Kaname said coldly.

All the vampires nodded. Ichijou smiled and walked to Kaname. "Yuuki-chan, my name is Ichijou Takuma, it's nice to meet you," he said, trying to get a glimpse of the child's face.

Yuuki slowly turned her head and was in awe.

"Ouji-sama!" Yuuki was dazzled by the kind smile of the blonde haired, green eyed vampire.

Kaname placed Yuuki into Ichijou's open arms and looked at her one last time, not knowing when he'd be able to see her again.

"Bye bye Yuuki, I'll try to see you soon." He said in farewell.

Before Yuuki realized that she was duped by the charming vampire, she yelled, "Kaname! Don't leave me here! Kaname!"

Kaname stepped into the car and didn't look to see Yuuki as the distance between him and her lengthened.

"I love you Yuuki." He said more so to himself.

Yuuki was heartbroken. The arms that Ichijou held her with weren't the same as Kaname's. He was truly gone, what did she do to make him leave her here? The six other vampires loosened up and sounds of protest against the child care of Yuuki erupted.

"Who is going to take care of that ochibi? Not me." Aidou exclaimed. Kain smacked him in the head, "Kaname has entrusted her with us and we will take care of her so," he said.

Yuuki, meanwhile was sulking, a slow trickle of tears forming, she hugged Ichijou tightly as he made comforting sounds. Everyone else was stunned into submission. When had Ichijou become such a certified babysitter?

"Ichijou, what are you doing?" Ruka asked, peering at the child from a good 2 feet away.

"I'm comforting the girl, she's quite scared. Let's go inside, it's getting chilly out here. Don't forget her luggage." He walked into the house leaving the rest of them to carry her luggage inside.

"Just, what does a little girl like her have so many heavy bags for?!" Aidou yelled in frustration.

Shiki stared at him blankly with pocky sticking out of his mouth, carrying the bags given to him with much ease. Aidou muttered to himself and before he realized what happened, he heard the resounding bang of the closed door.

"AHHHHHH, this is not my day!!!"

Everyone, minus Aidou who was yelling outside, gathered around the living room. Yuuki was hiding her face while Ichijou was petting her head.

"Now, now, Yuuki. Why don't you introduce yourself to everyone?" Ichijou suggested. But Yuuki only answered with a shake of her head and an adamant, "No!"

"I'll give you some pocky if you do," a different voice said, Yuuki turned her head shyly and looked up at the new person. He had reddish brown hair and had pocky sticking out from the corner of his mouth, which Yuuki realized, she really wanted. She settled herself facing everyone, their eyes looking at her from all angles.

"My name is Cross Yuuki. I'm five years old and I like pocky," she said, holding her hands out to Shiki who gave her some pocky in an indifferent manner.

Suddenly, the front door opened with a bang and Aidou fell inside with a flourish.

"This ochibi's bags almost killed me!" He shouted, all eyes went to him.

"Who are you calling ochibi?" Yuuki asked calmly, staring at him. There was only silence in the air.

"Who else would it be? It is you of course." Aidou said with a condescending air.

"You must be monkey face. I don't like you." Yuuki said looking away. The vampires had a very hard time muffling their laughter.

"My name is Aidou Hanabusa, not monkey face, ochibi." He said with little patience.

"Please excuse my cousin's behavior, my name is Kain Akatsuki."

"The provider of your pocky, my name is Shiki Senri. I bet I like pocky more than you."

"My name is Touya Rima."

"My name is Ruka Souen."

"I am Seiren."

Yuuki stared at everyone in bewilderment after each introduction, confused. She yawned and Ichijou stood up.

"Alright, I think that's enough with the introductions." He announced. "Yuuki, do you want to sleep?" He asked, but the poor girl was already dozing off on his shoulder and he chuckled slightly to himself.

"I'll put her to sleep in my room; I think she'll be most comfortable that way. Goodnight everyone." Ichijou cheerfully said, walking up the elegant staircase and disappearing.

"That girl, just who is she exactly to Kaname, calling me monkey face. Does she even know who I am?" Aidou muttered.

Kain shook his head and everyone took it upon themselves to go their separate ways to their rooms.
