Nothing belongs to me except some of the storyline (Some of it is from the Manga) and the character Mizuki Kara.


The Vampire Hunter's Apprentice

"It seemed only yesterday that that filthy vampire left the school grounds…followed by Yuki…"
But it's not yesterday...It was a year ago...

Chapter One
Real World
The darkness floods every light that promised change
She passed sound asleep when the blood is stain the blood is pain
Somewhere I know that im not all alone

"Zero!" A voice called. Pronouncing the teenagers name very slowly

"What is it Chairman…?" The silver hair boy groaned and turned around, his hands fiddling around in his pockets of his school jacket; as he was making his way to his first class

Kaien Cross clapped ever so happily and grinned. He looked like he had good news…for himself

"Good news Kiriyu! We have a new student!"

Zero sighed and his head dropped. Why did any of this matter to him…Oh right…He was the prefect…he probably had to show them around…great

"Come. Come…She is this way!" Kaien said in an excited tone gesturing Zero to follow him

"She…?" Zero muttered

- - -

He followed the Chairman through the schools halls, still alive and busy with students gathering books and heading to their first class of the day. Ever since the night class student all left the school had never been the same. There were no groups of girls giggling over how good looking the boys of the Night Class were. It was a lot quieter around the school ground…Everything...was so much different.

Eventually they made it to the Head Master's office. As Zero walked in all her saw was the back of a girl with red-brown hair wearing the day class uniform.

The girl turned around at the sound of the Chairman closing the door.

"You must be Zero Kiriyu." She questioned

"Yeah. What of it…" He muttered

"Nothing. Nothing at all…Vampire." She snorted as then changed her tone to become serious

"Oh my! You know?" The Chairman asked

The girl studied her nails for a moment before looking at the two men on the other side of the room. Barely even inside.

"My name is Mizuki Kara. Status. Vampire Hunter in training."

"Ooohhh Zero is a Vampire Hunter too!" The Chairman laughed while waving his hand

"I know. I've read his profile." Mizuki replied

"My…What!? You can't go through personal information like that!" Zero growled walking up to her and looking down. His body towered over her small frame.

"I have rights to." She replied looking straight ahead, ignoring him looking down at her.

Zero took a step back so she could see his face

"What gave you the right to look at my profile?" He repeated. A little calmer than before

"You have been chosen as my teacher. I am your apprentice from now on." Mizuki replied

Kaien stood there with his jaw dropped. He then shook his head and burst into a hysteric of laughter

"Zero Kiriyu as your teacher? Why he hasn't even completed his training!"

Mizuki reached into her pocket and pulled out a folded sheet of paper. Slowly, she walked over to Zero and handed it to him.

"Read," She sighed

He took it out of her hand a scrunched it up and threw it over his shoulder

"I don't believe this crap. Now if you'll excuse me I have to get to class…"

"Wait Kiriyu! You must show Miss Kara around! She has all the same classes as you." The chairman added

"Why does she have all the same classes…?" Zero muttered

Mizuki stood there looking at the two slightly leaning to the right with both hands on her hips, her light pink lips in a pout.

"Look if you don't believe me about my being your apprentice we can march down the Vampire Hunter Headquarters right now!"

"Fine! We will after school!" Zero shot back leaving the room

Mizuki ran after him and stopped at the door quickly turning around

"Thank you." She said bowing to the Headmaster before running after Zero

- - -

Zero walked to his first class with his books under one arm and his free hand in his pants pocket. Looking at the ground her heard footsteps quickly walking behind him. As he stopped walking suddenly, someone ran into him.

"Stop following me!" He muttered

"But I don't know where our first class is! You meant to show me!" Mizuki replied from behind

Zero rolled his eyes and muttered something under his breath. He could feel a whole bunch of people staring at him as the new student followed along behind him like a duckling follows its mother…

As they made it to class Zero pushed Mizuki in front of the teacher.

"New girl." He muttered and went to the back of the class and took his seat

The teacher looked up from the class roll. Her eyes skimming over the rims of her glasses.

"Name."

"Uhh….Mizuki Kara…" She replied

"Right." The teacher replied writing it down "Take a seat."

The teacher was quick and short…Mizuki looked around the classroom to see if there were any spare seats. There was on in the second row from the back next to a girl with short blonde brown hair. She walked up the steps and sat down next to the girl

"Hi. My name is Sayori Wakaba …But you may call me Yori" The girl smiled

"Hi…I'm Mizuki…as you just heard…" Mizuki replied

She heard someone snort from behind. As she turned around she saw Zero looking down at her from his desk. He looked completely bored out of his mind. Once he realised she was looking at him his eyes moved back to the teacher who had already began her class.

- - -

Large double doors crashed into the walls surrounding them. Stomping feet could be heard. Zero walked up the hallway and towards an office of his teacher. Toga Yagari.

"Oh Zero…What do you want?" Yagari asked as his student burst through the office door

"I demanded to know what this is!?" He replied pointing behind him to Mizuki who was standing a little to the left of him looking at her feet.

Yagari rubbed his forehead

"Zero…That is a girl…"

Mizuki began laughing but quickly covered her mouth with her hand.

"No I mean, how come she is coming to me saying she is my apprentice!!? Since when did I volunteer to teach someone? They will only slow me down."

"We thought it would be best to have someone around her age to teach her. You seemed suitable…" Yagari muttered as he began lighting a cigarette

"I tried showing him the letter…" Mizuki began

"But he threw it away?" Yagari finished

She rubbed the back of her neck and nodded. Her hair away from her neck, showing the pale soft skin. Zero could see it all out of the corner of his eye

He groaned and reached into his pocket. Pulling out a box he tipped a hand full of tablets into his mouth and crunched on them

"Wow. So you're the one keeping the Blood Tablet makers in business?" Mizuki muttered sarcastically

"Shut…Shut up." Zero replied swallowing the mouthful. He glanced back over to her as her hair fell back over her neck.

"Look Zero. I'm afraid you're stuck with the girl. So suck it up princess. Your first hunt is tonight Mizuki. Now both of you get out of my sight and head to the office at the end of the hall and receive the list." Yagari muttered

"What!?" Tonight? But its so soon! I noly just met my teahcer and..." Mizuki stuttered and was stopped by Yagari's hand

"Go."

Zero sighed heavily and turned away from his teacher. Leaving the room quickly he headed to the room at the end of the hall.

"Look I'm sorry if I'm such a burden." Mizuki started "but I haven't even gone on one hunt with you and you're already judging me."

"I'm allowed to judge." He replied

- - -

The lady at the desk greeted both of them and handed Zero a sheet of paper. A Level E vampire was sighted around the town earlier today.

"What does it say…?" Mizuki asked trying to read the letter. But Zero quickly placed it in his pocket.

"A vampire was sighted in town earlier today. Weren't you listening to the lady?"

Mizuki frowned

"Why can't I just read the note?"

Zero ignored her comment and headed back down the hall to the exit. Rummaging through his bag he pulled out a coat and put it on. Mizuki followed him as the two walked quickly into town.

Making it into the centre of the town Zero told Mizuki to split up.

"Isn't that...you know…dangerous…for me?"

"You're a Vampire Hunter aren't you? Protect yourself." Zero muttered

And with that suddenly disappeared. Obviously running at some unusual fast speed

"Vampires…" Mizuki sighed
