I was driving dangerously fast. Swerving on the road like a twisting snake. My black motorcycle with red, orange and yellow flames roared beneath me and fuelled my anger. I did not want to go on some small, stupid, insignificant, non-dangerous, 'supervision' mission. What did that goddamn Hunter's Association think I was? A rookie? An idiot? An inexperienced fool? I was young, yes, but I had been a vampire hunter for four years already! I was the best of the best. Well…I liked to think so. Maybe I was not 'the best', but I was pretty damn good at my job.
That was not the only reason I was angry though. They sent me to Japan! Goddamn it!
They move me to different places so much! All the time! First they took me out of my small apartment in Germany, and moved me to Thailand, then to Canada, then to France, then to South Africa, then to Greenland, and then to some tiny country that I had never heard of. Now Japan. I was ticked off. Really ticked off.
I took a sharp left, keeping my bike well balanced, and I accelerated a bit. I was already over the speed limit. My black trench coat flared out behind me like a devil's tail. I looked at the tiny GPS system on the centre of my handlebars. I would reach my destination in a few minuets.
I saw the tall, looming gates of Cross Academy up ahead. It was just like my master had told me. Before she passed on, she educated me on everything that involved vampires in anyway. Cross Academy is one subject we went over a lot. She did not like the 'pacifist ideals' of the person who ran this place. She liked violence and conflict and danger, just like I do. Maria Dells. My master. My trainer. The woman who taught me everything I knew. She was an amazing woman. I was heartbroken when she died, which was why I hated vampires even more that I had before. A level E had killed her. That's one of the main reasons I did not like talking about my past. At all. I almost never did.
The sun was setting slowly and I knew that the frickin' leeches would be coming out of there 'hiding places' soon. I did not want to run into them. I was not going to, no matter how many time I was persuaded. If I did meet up with one of them, the ending would not be very pretty. For the vampires.
I could see students, all girls, walking towards and then gathering by one dorm. They were not going inside it, so I assumed that that was the Moon dorm. Where the vampires lived. Probably where all the girls went and gawked at there amazing beauty. Girls today are extremely…fickle and stupid.
I sharply turned into the large, wide driveway that lead to the large, white academy. I could see three separate buildings. I had done my research, though. I knew that one of them was the Sun dorm where the day students lived and another one was the Moon dorm, where the vampires lived. Another building was the academy. Both groups of students shared the academy.
I stopped my bike quickly and did a high velocity skid on the pavement. It let up a spray of rocks, hitting some unsuspecting female students. They screamed and squealed. I could already tell that I would have to be careful; otherwise I might end up killing one of them. I had a very, very, very short fuse.
I took off my black helmet and shook out my flaming red and orange hair. I looked at the girls with my deep red eyes that could sometimes pass for a dark brown colour. My eyes were a natural colour. It ran in the family, on my mom's side, but she's dead now. Anyways, I did not wear contacts. Their eyes were bugging out of their heads and they were staring at me like I had three eyes and forty-seven heads. I glared darkly at them. Stupid girls.
"What the hell are you looking at?" I growled angrily.
They shrieked and ran away, going towards the huge group of girls surrounding what I had assumed to be the vampire's dorm. It probably was. Vampires were extremely and freakishly beautiful, so I could see why all the girls here would drool over them but it gave all other girls a bad name.
Not everyone would embarrass herself or himself or kick someone else just to get a glimpse of someone you will never have a chance with. You only have a chance of being the goddamn leeches' food.
I snorted and walked towards the academy. I had a meeting with the headmaster. His name was Kaien Cross, the former hunter. He would now never dream of killing a vampire. It was pathetic.
Peace never lasts. There will always be something to provoke it and then break it apart, throwing it into chaos. Making the world an even more violent place. I do not think that Kaien Cross' ideas will hold or even work. It was too…free. It was not strict enough.
For the past four years I grew up with strict rules. Very stict rules. I even had to tie my shoe laces properly, or else I would be punished. The punishments were not that fun either, they were difficult and painful. The rules were inplace by my master, so I, the student, would not become soft, or show mercy to anyone or anything.
I had made it into the hallway, and walked down the hall quickly and quietly. I remember the Hunter's Association telling me the layout of the acadamey building, so the Headmaster's office should be right…about…here!
I turned to look at a plain door. I blinked, took in a deep breath and knocked on the door and I waited.
"Come in!" I heard a male voice sing-song.
I opened the door and peered in. There was the Headmaster, sitting behind a desk, wearing a green shawl and glasses. Totally not what I thougt he would look like. There were two other people in the room. A boy and a girl. The girl had brown hair and brown eyes, wearing a black uniform. The boy was also wearing a black uniform. He had lavander eyes and silver hair. He was gorgeous. He had the dangerous aura that most vampires have. Both of them were staring at me like the girls outside had done earilier.
'Is that boy a vampire?' I asked myself in my head, while shooting daggers at the two students with my eyes.
"AH! Jamie! We have been waiting for you!." The headmaster said cheerfully.
I winced as he used my name. I hated it with a passion.
"Don't use my real name, Cross. You know my alias." I said as I glared deeply at him
He smiled at me and said,
"Yes, yes. I had received a letter informing me of you from the hunter's association."
I rolled my eyes. Goddamn Hunter's associtation. Do they not know that I have a brain? I can tell others about myself, I don't need anyine else to do so, or act like a 'parent'.
"Yes. I know you did. So, you know my mission then?" I asked him.
"Yes I do. But before we elaborate, I want to introduce you to my lovely daughter and my beautiful son!"
"Okay…" I said, I was not sure if I was going to like this.
"This is my cute daughter, Yuuki! And this is my son, Zero!"
"I am not your son. Stop calling me that." Zero said coldly.
"Nice to meet you." I forced myself to say it polietly.
Yuuki smiled at me. I forced myself to smile back at her. I was going to hate this.
"Now, Miss Kingston-" Headmaster Cross started.
"Goddamn it! Use my freaking alias!" I said angrily.
I saw the headmaster wince, and I smirked.
"Fine. Okay Fire-" He stared, but I cut him off again.
"Now that's better." I grinned.
"Anyways, Fire, I need you to give me all of your weapons."
My mouth fell open and I gasped.
"What!? Why the hell should I?" I asked angrily.
"This school does not encourage fighting. From what I read about you in the letter the Hunter's Association sent, you can snap at any moment, AND you are heavily armed, all the time. So, if you please…" He said.
I rolled my eyes and sucked in a deep breath of air.
"Fine." I muttered.
First I took off my trench coat and plunked it down on his desk. It made a loud 'bang' as it hit the desk. Headmaster Cross lifted it up and started emptying the many pockets. Inside there was eighteen throwing knives, six spools of strong metal wire, seven small hand guns, and sebon needles. Lots of sebon needles.
I took off my belt and emptyed all of the anti-vampire magic ammo, small explosives, and two large guns. I also unhooked a medium sized sword. I took off my metal neck protector and threw it on the desk. Then I took off my boots and unhooked the twelve large and pointy knives, also throwing them on the desk. I unhooked a few feet of stong, think metal chain from around my waist and dropped it on the floor. It made a crashing sound.
I groaned and looked at my pile of beloved weapons. I was going to miss them, but it felt like I was at least seventy pounds lighter.
"This is…a lot of weapons." Headmaster Corss said.
"Can I keep at least three of them? In case of emergencies, or if there is a Level E around. Please?" I pleaded.
"Uhm…if you promise not to fight and not use them on any students or on the school grounds and only use them in emergencies…then yes." He said reluctantly.
I smiled. I picked up a long sharp knife and replaced it back into my tall, black, leather boot. Then I picked up one of my small hand guns and the one of my larger guns. I put my belt back on, minus all the weapons, and put my two guns in the holsters. I put my trench coat back on also. It was so much lighter.
"Now…since your mission involves watching the vampires…here is your uniform!" Headmaster Cross said in an excited voice, as he pulled out a white uniform.
"Uhm…Headmaster Cross…why do I need a uniform?" I asked.
"Because, you will need to be a student ot carry out your mission!"
I choked a little on my own spit and my anger flared.
"I DO NOT need to be a student to complete my mission!" I said, trying to resist the urge to throw something large and pointy at the Headmaster.
"W-w-well…" Kaien Cross started.
"Uhm…Headmaster? Why is it a white uniform? Is she a vampire?" The girl, Yuuki, said.
I turned to her, my eyes spitting out fire.
"What was that?" I said in a dangerously calm voice.
"I-I should go and patroll the grounds…" she said nervously, as she quickly walked out the door.
I noticed that the boy who was in here earilier had left, probably quite a while ago. AS soon as I was sure Yuuki was out of hearing range, I blew up. I turned to Headmaster Cross.
"What the hell!? I AM NOT A VAMPIRE! I refuse to be in the same bulidng as those leeches, unless I get to kill them!" I said angrily.
I looked at Kaien Cross closely. He was obviously shocked by my outburst. I smirked. I was good at getting my way. I always got my way. Well… most of the time I did.
"Fire, I understand where you are coming from, but, in order to complete your mission you need to be close to the vampires. You need to monitor them. You are going into the Night Class. The Hunter's Association even says so."
My mouth fell open. I could not believe it. I was pissed off.
"WHY!? I can monitor them perfectly fine by NOT being in the same room as them!!" I raged.
"In the letter I was sent by the Hunter's Association, it says you need to monitor the peace here. I know that it is perfectly fine, but the Hunter's Association does not think so. So you will have to be in the night class to monitor the peace accurately." The Headmaster said calmly.
"B-b-b-but, I don't even LOOK like a vampire. I don't act like them! I don't even have the same aura as they do! How am I going to make this possible!?" I asked, desperately trying to wiggle my way out of this.
"I don't know…we will find a way to make you look more like a vampire! You already have the red eyes!" He said is a creepily cheerful voice.
"Headmaster Cross…could I maybe…I don't know…patrol…like your daughter is doing? Or…uhm…teach?" I said in the most persuasive voice I could muster.
"Well…we already have another hunter coming in to teach both the night class and the day class…you could be his…assistant…" He said, trying to figure it out how this will work in his head.
"Another Hunter? Really? Which one? What's his name?" I asked, genuinely interested.
"His name is Toga Yagari." The headmaster said.
My eyes lit up. I knew him. Althought I have never met him in person, I knew all about him. My Master always told me about other hunters. He was an excellent hunter from what I was told.
"So…what's the plan?" I asked Headmaster Cross.
