Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Knight, Matsuri Hino does.

First VK fanfic here! Kyaaah! :P I dunno what to write so let's carry on with the knighting!

-Tsuki :P

Kain readied himself. He knew what was coming next and anticipated Aido's next move.

'Checkmate!' Aido declared loudly, smirking to himself. Kain just yawned and crawled back to his bed. It was the eleventh time that he lost to Aido in chess that day. Heck, he was used to it. Aido was the brainiac.

'C'mon Akatsuki! Another round!' he yelled. Kain reached behind him and brought out one of his pillows, flinging it at Aido.

'Pipe down, Hanabusa! There are people who want to sleep,' he groaned. Aido just pouted and ran out of the room.

'If you're going to be like that, I'm going to go ask Ichijo to challenge me!' He called back. Kain just tossed over in bed and slammed the pillow down onto his head. Why are we even cousins....?

'Well, good morning sleepyhead!' Ruka greeted him when Kain came down to the dining hall for breakfast...He yawned and propped his feet up onto the table. 'Blame Aido. He forced me to play chess with him all morning yesterday...'

Ruka giggled to herself and told Kain, 'yes, I know. Rima and I were kept awake by his hyperactive screaming. You can hear it all the way from the girls' dorm.'

She and Kain burst out laughing. Kain looked around. 'Speaking of Rima, I didn't see her or Shiki this uh...evening...'

'Oh. They had a last minute modeling session, so they had to rush off.'

'Ah,' Kain nodded. Suddenly, silence filled the dining hall. All the vampires froze, sensing that intoxicating smell in the air. Blood. Kain quickly stood up and scanned the room. Some students were whispering to each other and most were listless. Just then, Kaname came down the stairs with Aido running after him. All vampires looked at him and bowed respectfully as he descended.

'Dorm Leader Kuran, what's going on?' Kain asked their true-blooded vampire leader. Kaname stopped in front of him and Ruka. 'Come with me,' he nodded to both of them. Kain and Ruka exchanged worried glances before following Kaname out the moon dorm.

Once they were outside, the smell of blood got stronger.

'It seems that a few level-E vampires have snuck onto campus. Chairman Cross has requested us to get rid of them. Ichijo will meet us at the site,' Kaname explained.

'What? But how? The level-E's have never been able to come into the campus before. What are they looking for?' Kain mumbled to himself. Aido slowed down and fell in line with Kain while Ruka went a bit faster than them.

'Akatsuki,' Aido whispered. 'They're not after an it, they're after a who. They're after us.'

'Us? But why?' Kain whispered back.

'I haven't figured out that part yet, but I'm on it.'

Sure enough, when they reached the site, Ichijo was already fending off level-E vampires. 'Well you guys took long enough!' He grinned.

'There are so many of them!' Ruka gasped as level-E vampires came from all sides to attack them.

'Kain, you go with Ruka to the east side! Ichijo, you go with Aido to the west side! I'll take the rest,' Kaname ordered and they split up to their respective attack points.

Kaname chuckled to himself as he approached his bunch of level-E vampires. 'I'm going to make you regret that you were even born.'

Fssssshh! Went the level-E vampire as Kain hit it right on the head with a fire ball. He and Ruka were back to back, vaporising any level-E vampire that came near them. There was blood all around them, and it was hard fighting the bloodlust.

'You doing okay, Ruka?' Kain called over his shoulder. Ruka replied while making a level-E bash his head against a tree. 'I'm fine.'

They were interrupted by a loud crack of thunder and a flash of lightning, which caused the level-E's to shudder and forget all about Kain and Ruka. They were focusing on something else.

Kain turned his head to the direction in which they were looked and gasped. A pillar of blue light was emitting from the moon dormitory. The light became brighter and all the level-E's dispersed, clearly frightened by this light.

'Kain, Ruka!' Ichijo and Aido called to them. 'Are you seeing that?' Ichijo panted. Kain nodded slowly while Ruka looked around uneasily. 'All the level-E's have bolted. I wonder why?'

Kaname dropped down from an overhanging branch, licking his fingers clean of blood. 'I'm sensing great power from that blue light,' he said in between licks.

All of them turned their heads when the sound of footsteps greeted them. Shiki and Rima emerged from the bushes. 'What happened? We were on our way back when a whole horde of level-E's dashed past us screaming and yelling. We got rid of a lot of them then rushed here-' Shiki said as he noticed the light for the first time.

'Well, something weird's going on and I don't like it,' Aido commented.

'We should go back to the dorm to check on the others,' Kain suggested. Everyone agreed and they began trodding back to the moon dorm.

'Everyone seems to be doing fine, although some had bloodlusts. I told them to wait inside till we say it's okay,' Ichijo said as he exited the building and met the rest of the group.

'I need to report this to the chairman,' Kaname said quietly then sank into the shadows.

The rest of them waited in silence and darkness, until the blue light did something unexpected.

The beam of light suddenly split into six smaller ones and went straight for Kain, Ruka, Ichijo, Aido, Shiki, and Rima.

Kain didn't avoid it in time and the light hit him on the leg. He looked at himself in shock. He was dissapearing. Right before his very eyes. He could see right through his now translucent hands, quickly becoming transparent. He glanced at the others. They too were vanishing into the air.

What's gonna happen now? Kain said to himself. Are we going to die?

Then nothing.

Kain awoke to the sound of waves crashing onto the shore. He blinked a few times before sitting up. He rapidly examined his surroundings. He was on a beach, by the looks of it. But it was deserted, with no human in sight. He lifted up his hand. It wasn't fading anymore. It was solid, like normal.

'Akatsuki! You're finally up!'

Kain whipped around to the sound of his name, and found himself face to face with Ruka and Aido.

'Huh? Guys? What happened?' Kain asked them. Aido shook his head sadly.

'I can't figure it out either. But we can't find Ichijo, Shiki, and Rima.'

'Oh,' Kain lowered his gaze to the sea. 'Where are we?'

'We're somewhere near Tokyo, well at least that's what the signposts say,' Ruka answered. Kain tentatively flicked his hand toward a floating piece of seaweed, and it immediately caught on fire.

'At least this shows we're still ourselves,' Kain muttered.

'Hey you there! You three!' A voice called from the uppershore. The three vampires turned their heads to the source, only to nearly blind themselves in a flashlights' strong glare.

Kain drew his hand up to his face to block out the light while the mysterious figure approached them.

'What are you three doing out here? The beach's closed,' he said, and as he came closer, Kain could make out a security guard's uniform.

'Well, sir. We don't actually know ourselves...' Aido said.

'You better come with me,' the guard motioned for them to follow him as he walked away from the beach.

Kain, Ruka and Aido sat in a taxi a few moments later, after Ruka persuaded the guard to let them go. Apparently, the taxi driver had no idea what or where Cross Academy was, which was a bit strange. Even after flipping through countless amounts of street directories didn't help them. So Ruka just asked him to drive them to a nearby hotel.

'We might be in Tokyo, but the problem is...are we in our Tokyo?' Kain said mysteriously. Aido agreed with him. 'If that blue light back at the academy was really a teleporter of some sort, then we might not be in the same dimension.'

'Not in the same dimension?!' Ruka looked bewildered. 'What do you mean? How do we get back?'

'I told you I'm still trying to work it out!' Aido snapped back.

'Well, excuse me for worrying!'

'Old lady!'

'Crybaby!'

While the two of them bickered, Kain stared out the window and sorely wished that he was back home, at Cross Academy.

Where are Ichijo, Rima, and Shiki? Are they okay? Are they even in the same dimension as us? These thoughts processed through Kain's mind like a bullet train and he watched the raindrops drop down onto the glass of the small car.

Where are we?

Well, that's it for chapter 1. I'm sorry it's so short....Waaahh! DX

Oh well...I don't if chapter 2's gonna be up soon, or not so soon...'Cos hey, you can't write 4 fanfics at once right? Wait, you can...It just takes longer! XD

Please REVIEW! :P

Bye Bye! -Tsuki :P
