This is my first Vampire Knight fanfic so I hope you all like it and please tell me what you think. =)

The pairing is Yuki/Zero ^_^ Enjoy!

This takes place after book 12. Yuki has escaped from Kaname with Aido and gone out into the world. While she is out she goes to visit a cemetary and is confrotned by another pureblood who inflicts a huge wound. Zero was visiting his parents' and Ichiru's graves when he hears the comotion and smells the blood. That's when Yuki and Zero meet again after the ball.

Zero's POV

I knew as soon as I'd smelt the blood who it was and what was going on. I didn't understand why she was there at the cemetary or why only Aido was with her instead of Kaname or even why another pureblood was fighting with her. The only thing that ran through my mind when I smelled her fresh blood was Yuki! She's hurt! Where is she? I felt disturbed that it could trigger such an old response from me. This was not the same Yuki that I had once loved. This was the vampire Yuki Kuran, the pureblood. Sister to my bitter enemy. I was supposed to hate her and her exsistance. So why did I feel worried and run to find her with Aido, a huge wound on her back. I will never know.

Aido was trying to help her, but stubborn as usual, she refused to be fussed over. I could sense her wound closing up, the blood smell fading and growing duller. I gazed at her, feeling to open, to awkward. I wanted to go and help her like I would've in the old days, but I held back and stood there. I would not interferre no matter how much i wanted to. There was no way she could'nt see me anyways.

As if on que to my thoughts, she gazed over at me with her big, caremel, solemn-looking eyes. Sighing she stood up and faced me. Just then, behind her, I saw her attacker taking form in the shadows, baring his fangs. She mumbled trying to think of something to say and then finally settled with "Good evening!". I couldn't return her greeting no matter how out of place it was because my full attention was on the beast behind her getting ready to strike her again. I reached for my gun.

Aido started to freak out but then the vampire brat opened his mouth and mocked me saying I didn;t have to look scary and that all he was gonna do was attack her again. In more formal words, I told him to piss off or I'd shoot his stupid replica body. When he flew away in his bat form, I turned back to Yuki. She stumbled and then fainted due to her loss of blood. Damnit! Even as a vampire the loss of blood still effects her...I thought as I marched forward and lifted her out of Aido's grasp and onto my shoulder. I told him I'd take them to a safe place where they could rest. I'd take them to the Hunter's place that I'd been living at for a while now and let her rest. I'd give her some blood tablets to help her deal with the blood loss. They sucked compared to actual blood but they'd do.

When we got in and settled down ido insisted on standing guard outside, leaving me alone in my room with Yuki. I still had her on my shoulder when I felt her stir. She struggled up and began sniffing at my neck having her instincts take control. I stood there calmly, though on the inside I was shocked and confused. Why would she want my blood? We only crave the blood of the perosn we love...And that's why I'm craving hers...Oh shut up! She's a PUREBLOOD! I swore to kill them all. I thought as she moved my hair out of the way. She licked my neck. I'll let her drink from me and then I'll have an excuse to kill her. She bared her fangs, ready to bite. ...Yuki...

Then she pulled back and looked up. I stared back at her. Her eyes widened as she realized what she was about to bite me a moment ago. She blushed. I chuckled inside. "Changed your mind huh? Well you're lucky. I was going to kill you if you went through with it." I said. She looked embarrassed and worried. An expression onn her I was used to. It brought back old memories.

"...Put me down..."she said. "Can you stand?" "Yes...Thank you..." So I put her down and we stared at each other. There was a long silence. I could see the longing in her soft eyes as she stared at me. I couldn't help feeling the way I usually did whenI was with her. I wanted to forget that she was a pureblood now and that I swore I'd kill her. I wanted to wrap my arms around her again and hold her close. I wanted to taste her blood. I wanted to kiss like I had the day we killed Rido. I wanted her...

"I'm sorry..." she started. "...No..." I said. She didn't have to apologize. She was always doing that, even back then. She was so much like the old Yuki. I was so close to just going to her and forgeting everything. It wasn't her fault that this was what she was born as. It wasn't her decision to be made human and then back into a vampire. It was all that bastard Kaname's fault. I Shouldn't take my hatrd out on her. She did nothing wrong. My control broke and I walked over to her. "...Yuki..." Her eyes clouded and she leaned towards me. She rested her head against my chest and after a moment of hesitation, I held her like I did in trhe past. I could feel her tears making my shirt even wetter than it was already due to her blood.

"...It's alright Yuki...I won't kill you..." I said. I felt her tense but not at what I said. I felt her thirst as if it was my own. She was craving my blood as I was hers. I did nothing and she went back to her vampire instincts. She moved me towards the bed and gently but urgently pushed me onto it. Then she climbed on top of me and burried her head into my neck. She licked and then...peirced. I felt her taking my blood and sighed. I put my arms gently around her as she drank in all my feelings for her. This is payback for what I took from her. I thought. I'll let her feel everything so she knows...then she can choose what to do after that...
