"Yuki! You're so mean!" You could hear a girl roar from the crowd. It was your first day at Cross Academy, and already you could tell that at least some of the crazy rumors about the school were true.

"Alright, alright! Get back! You need to get out of the way!" Yuki Cross, the headmaster's daughter pushed back crowds of the day class girls who donned the same black uniform as you. Ah yes, the loving fan girls of the day class, who stood at those gates every day, waiting for their beloved night class beauties to come out.

You stood on the very edge of the group of girls, as far from the gate as possible but still near enough to the others that you wouldn't look odd or like a loner. You sighed, chuckling under your breath.

"These girls…if they had any idea." You mumbled. The only reason you were even out there was because your roommate, a girl that had been at the academy for years, insisted that you see the night class on your first day. You had no interest in seeing them. None at all. In fact…the idea of having vampires at your school frightened you terribly. After all, your own mother had been killed by one of those savage beasts.

You pitied those hormonal, love-sick girls beside you. If they knew what a danger the night class was, they probably would stay as far away as possible. The only reason you knew about the night class was because your father was a vampire hunter, and one that fought along side Kaien Cross himself at one point in time, though you and Yuki had never met, your fathers were very close and that was what got you into the academy. Your father, with his hostility for all vampire-kind, was very adamant about you going somewhere else, especially after watching your mother die to a vampire in your own home, but after much pleading from yourself, and his old friend Kaien assuring him that his night class was very well behaved, he agreed to let you go.

"But if anything…anything at all happens to my daughter, Kaien, I swear on our friendship, I will handle it myself." Your father's words rung through your mind.

"(Name)!" You were startled out of your trance when your roommate nudged you with her elbow. "Here they come! The night class!" She hopped up and down like a child receiving a present. You gasped, turning to look in the direction of the gates. You leaned over the barrier that was set by the disciplinary committee to get a better look. You kept trying to convince yourself that you weren't at all caught up in all the hype of the night class bandwagon. You weren't screaming like the others, at least. You couldn't have a crush on people you'd never even seen, but you promised yourself that even once you did see them, you wouldn't be reduced to a blubbering, weak-kneed fan girl too. You were merely curious to see what all the fuss was about.

"Hey, get back!" Another member of the disciplinary committee, Zero, as you remembered his name being, scolded you for leaning over his barrier.

"Sorry!" You said sheepishly and leaned back again. Great! Now I can't see anything! You mentally snapped at Zero. You couldn't see anything, but you could certainly hear the girls get louder and louder by the second. You were pushed to the side as the girls grunted and hissed, pushing to the front.

"Aido!" One of the girls hysterically screamed. Hanabusa Aido. Blonde, blue eyes, flirty and dangerous. You recalled little bits of details from your dad's fieldwork and journals on the most famous vampire families. The Aidos were one such family. Yes…you were to stay away from him.

"Well hello, ladies!" Aido grinned widely, flashing the girls a set of pearly white teeth. It seemed you were the only one afraid of what those teeth could do. Zero and Yuki pushed back two girls reaching out to grab Aido's white jacket sleeve. "Don't they look lovely today, Akatsuki?"

"Uh huh." A tall redhead answered with a uninterested tone. Akatsuki Kain. Quiet and kind. Unlike his friend he is not a troublemaker, you thought. You looked as Akatsuki passed by. Behind them you saw another boy with Auburn hair. That must be Senri. So far, you couldn't see what the big deal was. Sure they were handsome, and Ruka and Rima were beautiful, but you'd seen humans that were even more so. Not many, but they existed. You scoffed. It was so shallow of these girl to only like them for their looks. They knew nothing about them. What they'd do to them if they got them alone. How they could kill them in an instant, and even possibly enjoy the kill.

"Why hello there!" Aido stopped right in front of you. You took a startled step back, but he grasped you hand, preventing you from moving any further away. You did everything you could to repress your fear, but your hand still shook in his slightly, and you were sure he could tell. He smirked, "I don't believe I've seen you before. What's your name?" You could hear the wave of extremely jealous girls behind you. The heat of their anger and envy for you was thick in the air.

"(N-Name)." Your voice shook as you pulled your hand away roughly. Your father would be enraged if he knew you had just touched a vampire's hand. Aido frowned, he could sense it, the way you didn't trust him, the way you didn't like him down deep inside. He knew you knew something you shouldn't, knew more then the other human, and he didn't like it. His brow furrowed, then he smirked evilly. You weren't obsessing over him like the others, a fact that would bother and eat away at him…and made you all the more desirable. He would make you love him, just like everybody else did. He felt the need to. Everyone like Hanabusa Aido, and it was unacceptable for this insignificant new girl to reject his advances.

"Well, (Name)," He leaned down to your height, his face inches from yours. He grasped a handful of you (h/c) hair and brought his nose to it, breathing in deeply, "You smell delicious." He said in a sultry voice. Your mouth gaped in terror. The hair on your neck stood in in fear. Your reaction told him all he needed to know, and in that instant, you become his new conquest. A prey that resisted must be tamed." Welcome to Cross Academy. I hope I see you again."

"Enough, Aido," You sighed in relief. Finally, a familiar face. Kaname Kuran placed his hand on Aido's shoulder, pushing him gently away from you. The girls screamed, reaching out toward Kaname. They were dismissed to their dorms by Zero and Yuki, giving you two privacy to talk.

"Hey!" Aido frowned." Oh, okay, I'm going. I apologize, Lord Kaname." He smiled at you," See you later, (Name)" He winked, and continued to walk with his classmates.

"Ah…sorry about that," Kaname spoke softly. You had only met him one other time, the night before you officially registered for the academy. He welcomed you, along with Kaien Cross. He said it was his duty to be there, that any student that had knowledge of vampires, human or not, was his business to keep an eye on. You surprisingly were not afraid of him. Even though he was a pureblood, more powerful then other vampires, he always seemed so kind and humane. "Listen, I need you to come to the moon dorm tomorrow after your morning classes. I'll be there then. Make sure you're there before nightfall, or I'll have to leave for class, okay? We need to talk before you really get comfortable here." He smiled

"Oh…okay, Kaname, I'll be there!" You smiled back as he walked away, but on the inside you were worried. You knew what he wanted to talk about. He didn't want the daughter of a hunter to bring trouble for the night class. He assumed the hatred that burned in his veins naturally flowed through yours. You giggled to yourself. You didn't hate vampires that much. In fact, they scared you way to much for you to ever be brave enough to attack one, and even if you were, you weren't trained in the art of vampire killing like your father. And tomorrow you would go to the moon dorm to-

"OH CRAP! I'M GOING TO THE MOON DORM!" fear overran your brain. You were heading into the den of vampires you feared and were told to stay away from. Tomorrow was gonna be one of those days…
