Chapter 1: Taken

On the night of Hallows Eve it was an unusually quiet dark night at Cross' Academy there wasn't a single sound. However in the background of this magnificent school was a mansion where a very sinister celebration occurring. Cross' Academy was hosting a Halloween Ball for the first time since its opening. Inside the beautiful mansion there was a monstrous crowd of teens gathered on the dance floor celebrating the holiday in an orgy of the flesh. In the ballroom there were three teens who didn't participate in the festivities.

"I can't believe we had to come to this party." the teen with silver hair and lilac eyes spoke to his two companions. "Well it was either come to the party or stay at home doing nothing." the blond-haired teen with ocean blue eyes spoke in response. "Yeah well doing nothing is better than this torture." the brunette with pale grey eyes said. The silverettes eyes narrowed and looked back at the blond teen. "That's right Hana why did you bring us here." Aidou started to sweat and backed away from his silver-haired friend. "Come on Zero I thought it would be good for us to get out and stop moping." Zero sighed and looked at his friend. "Obviously your plan to make us feel better failed. Now we are in the corner of the room surrounded by couples." The so far silent brunette looked up from the floor and his gaze shifted over to Zero. "It's not that bad I mean at least we're nowhere near them." Zero looks at his friend and smiled. "Your right Senri there's no reason to be upset. Now let's enjoy the party." He ran off followed by a laughing Aidou and Senri.

In the basement of a darkened Victorian mansion, two mysterious men were plotting an evil scheme. "We need to hurry, the Master will be mad if we're late." The dark figure spoke to the man next to him. "I know you fool. Now tell me who we're after so we can leave." The dark figure handed the file over to his boss. The leader reads over the files and smirks. "Zero Kiryu, Hanabusa Aidou, and Senri Shiki, Perfect. Hidan get Naraku and let's go." Hidan ran off leaving the dark figure to themselves. The figure looked back at the picture of the three teens smiling. They smirked."This will be a great reunion. Brother.' They put down the file and left the room.

Zero, Aidou, and Senri danced in the large crowd not caring if someone bumped into them. "I'm glad we came." Zero shouted over the loud music. Aidou and Senri nodded back at him. "Hey let's get some drinks." Aidou shouted to his two friends. "Okay." They replied.' The trio made their way out the crowd and went over to one of the waiters carrying drinks. They each grabbed a drink and went over to their table. They hadn't noticed the waiter grin evilly at their backs.

"Whoa, why do I feel so dizzy?" Zero questioned as he placed his now empty glass down. Aidou and Senri copied his movement and wondered the same thing. It wasn't like vampires could get drunk. 'Maybe we just need some air." Aidou suggested weakly while standing. Zero and Senri nod in agreement and followed his motions.

When the trio finally made it to the balcony door they noticed it was already occupied by the pureblood Kaname and his fiancée/sister Yuuki Kuran. Zero saw them wrapped in each other's arms and quickly ran to another exit. Aidou and Senri were quick to follow. Zero ran all the way to the Gardens on the ground floor before he let his tears fall. Aidou and Senri run up to him. "Zero are you okay?" Aidou asked while putting his hand on Zero's shoulder.

"I-I'm fine it just surprised me." Zero said trying not to cry. "It's o-okay d-don't worry said as he collapsed on the ground. Zero followed Senri into unconsciousness while Aidou was kneeling on the ground. 'W-what's happening?" Aidou mumbled as his vision darkened.

Hidan and Naraku walked out from behind the trees and moved towards the fallen bodies. "Hidan let's hurry before anyone sees." Naraku spoke to his partner while throwing Zero over his shoulder and tucked Senri under his arm. "Yes I know why, do you guys talk down to me all the time." Hidan said with a frown while he picked up Aidou. Naraku sighed and began to walk away from his partner, "Hey Naraku wait up. HEY!" Hidan ran after his partner yelling.

The pureblood Kaname Kuran walked towards Chairman Cross' Office at a fast pace. Cross heard the pureblood knock on his door and hurried to call him in. Kaname took a seat in front of the chairman's desk. "Chairman Cross have you seen Aidou or Shiki they didn't check-in at the dorm."Cross looked up from his desk to the vampire in front of him. He stood.

"No I haven't though I must ask if you have seen Zero since he never came home." Kaname frowned.

"Well, they might just the walking around the campus." The pureblood sighed then got up to leave the room greatly worried about his friends. He stopped at the door and turned back to Chairman Cross. "Chairman why did you think I knew where Zero is?" Chairman grinned slyly while his glasses gleamed over, "Just wondering if you saw him." Kaname looked at Cross curiously and turned to walk out of the room. Chairman Cross sighed and sat down at his desk. He picked up the phone and waited for the recipient to pick up.

Chairman Cross put the phone back on the hook with a sigh. "Where could Zero be? Why are Shiki and Aidou missing as well?" Cross walked out at his office for the last time that night.
