Summary: (read if you wish, not required)

Whenever I thought of myths or legends, I always thought about Death Reapers and the occasional vampires. The ones with a skull face, black robes, a scythe, and emitting death; well I was half-right. I had this feeling in my gut that told me something, big, was going to happen this year. Sure we're letting in Vampires and what not; but I had a feeling something much worse was about to be let in.

Toshiro Hitsugaya is assigned a mission to go to Cross Academy on the request of the Chairman Cross and help protect the day class from the night class and the night class from Rido and other vampires just like him. Did I mention that the night class is a bunch of vampires? With his new mission, his unknown worsening conditions that he can't seem to remember, and all these annoying vampires to deal with - can Toshiro Hitsugaya survive the year?

Pairings: (must read)

June

I was starting to doubt if I was going to be able to get any of this done. The pile of paper work mounted on my desk was despicable. My lazy Lieutenant was off drinking sake, again. I swear one of these days she'll get what's coming to her. I was hoping that it would be sooner than later.

I sighed and put a little bit pressure on my temples. My headache has come back once again. Ever since Matsumoto has been neglecting all of her paper work, and piling it on my desk for me to do, I had been getting these headaches that I can't seem to get rid of. Even though Motsumoto not doing her paper work isn't a big surprise, she wouldn't normally neglect all of it. I need to have a serious conversation with her. Who am I kidding? The conversation will probably be like every other conversation I've had with her over the past thirty years. I'll say we 'need to have a talk', she'll be like 'why' and then I'll say 'because you haven't done your paper work' and then the next thing I know she'll be running up to me; squishing me in that thing she calls a 'hug' and then running off. Sometimes I wonder if being a Captain is worth dealing with Motsumoto. I sigh once again, looking at the huge mountain of paper work that needs to be completed by tomorrow night and try not to freeze the whole office –again.

As soon as I grab the first paper on top of the stack, a hell butterfly lands on my wrist.

"Captain Hitsugaya of the Tenth Division, you are to report to Head Captain-Commander Yamamoto for your newest assignment at 6:00 P.M tonight. The details of your mission will be revealed to you at the meeting, your presence is mandatory."

Great, just what I needed. A mission when I'm trying to get all my paper work done. I look at the clock and realize I have only six minutes to get there. A vein appears on my forehead, the temperature of the room suddenly drops to -20°F. I grab Hyorinmaru and tie her to my back and head off towards the Head Captain-Commander's office.

I knock on the door with one minute to spare. I like to be somewhat early; I guess it's just become a habit for me now. The Head Captain tells me to enter. I push open the door and enter the room. The first thing I notice is that I'm the only one here so I must be the only one assigned to this mission. Weird, missions are usually given to two-to-three people squads, mostly as a precautionary measure. The Soul Society does it that way so they can assure the lives of their subordinates. I stand before him; he clears his throat and turns his eyes towards me.

"Captain Hitsugaya, as you well know, you are being assigned a mission. You can tell, since no one is here but you, that you alone will do and complete this mission. While you are completing your mission, other Captains and Lieutenants will be dropping by every so often."

"I understand." I nodded to show that I had understood and processed the information.

"Your mission is to stay at Cross Academy. This Academy is different. There are regular humans and vampires." I shocked. Of course I never showed my disbelief (I am a Captain after all) but I guess I should have seen something like this happening. What, after the Bounts and Dolls and everything, vampires or zombies was something I was subconsciously expecting. "This Academy was made for the sole purpose of showing the world that humans and vampires can live in peace. Your objective is to protect the humans from the vampires that want to suck their blood, keep the humans from finding out about the vampires, and help the vampires attending the school from other vampires: i.e. level E vampires, vampire hunters, and/or other dangerous vampires. Is that clear?"

"Yes, how long will I be staying at Cross Academy?"

"For the whole school year unless I tell you different. This is a packet" The Head Captain held up a red colored packet, "that explains everything that you need; book have already been delivered to your office that you will need to study before you go. You will be leaving the first of August; you are dismissed - and one more thing; keep a close eye on Cross Yuuki and Kiryu Zero."

Of course I would love nothing more than to ask why those two people were singled out, but the I knew my place and it wasn't my place to ask my superior such a question. All I was expected to do was to follow every command to the (hypothetical) 'T' and I planned on doing it. It didn't mean I liked taking orders, oh no, I just knew my place all too well. "Yes Captain Commander."

I took the red-colored packet, bowed deeply and respectfully, turned and left the room. As I entered my office I can hear hiccups coming from the other side. Good, Motsumoto is back. I open the door and to my, not so, surprise, Motsumoto was spread out on the couch: typical Motsumoto. I sighed and took the blanket from the end of the couch and put it over her; covering her from the soon-to-be frost. How I will enjoy being away from her; but I don't like the idea of her running my Division while I'm gone. I sat down at my desk and started reading the extensive packet. It says that I am a Pureblood, but I'm being placed in the Day Class to look after Cross Yuuki and Kiryu Zero. How fun. I get to babysit annoying teenagers. It also tells me not to blow my secret until I absolutely need to. I start flipping through the pages skimming here and there; when the title List of Vampires catches my eye. I stop on that page and read every name:

Although there was little-to-nothing explained on the paper about the vampires, the basics were all fully covered. For that, I was thankful. Whoever was doing the scouting was doing a pretty damn good job. These Vampires, vaguely similar to Bounts, possess powers also similar to Bounts. And I am going to be a Pure Blood like Kuran Kaname. How interesting; I can tell that this mission will be draining and will, most likely, wear on my nerves, but who am I to refuse a mission from the Head Captain himself? I finish reading the packet, finished the books I needed to read, and start packing.

I need to finish packing before Matsumoto wakes up or they'll be hell to pay. And no, that is not an extreme exaggeration. I can still remember the mission to the living world where I placed Matsumoto in charge of packing my belongings. Shuddering from the horrid flashback, I continue my packing pace, barely slowing down to think rationally. My hand wavered slightly when I reach the end, conflicting thoughts running through my mind on whether I should bring that or not. Hovering for a few moments, I quickly decide against bringing it, and slam my suitcase shut with force. There, I thought, That should do it.

After I have finished my packing, I steadily walk towards my office hoping to get my work load done, oh what a day that'll be, until I suddenly drop to the floor exhausted and tired. I lied there, falling asleep.Now of all times this has to happen? I think quietly while I doze off into a hazy sleep.


2 Months Later

I can't believe that August is here and I will be leaving in a few short minutes. I look around my clean office, wincing as I imagine what it might look like when I come back. I sigh and walk out the door, resigning myself to an impending fate of destruction to my pristine office; saving a mental image of what it looks like still intact. I reached into my newly-acquired human pants and grab a note I had written, as soon as I woke up, on my desk for Motsumoto since it's one in the morning. I head to the gate and prepare to leave. Shunpo-ing there to save time and energy, I arrived early (as it should be) and waited for the gate to open. As soon as I hear the silent chimes of spirit pressure buzz, I walk through the opening gates of Soul Society and found myself staring at a gate in front of a large school: the Academy. I push the gate open and walk through, not letting the sight imprison me with their imposing walls and mid-evil like structure. I am a warrior of death, a children's school can't scare me; no matter how hard they try. The only good thing that can possibly come out of this mission is the fact that I do not have to wear a gigai. Turns out that the Twelfth Division was working on something that could make you visible to humans and vampire alike; so I wouldn't have to wear a stuffy body. I headed towards the Chairman's office and knocked when I reached the door. Someone from the other side had yelled for me to enter. Doing just that, I opened the door and saw a blonde man with a pony tail, a silver haired kid that (disgustingly) reminded me of Ichimaru, and a girl with reddish-brownish eyes and short hair. I bowed low in respect and came into the room.

"Ah. Hitsugaya Toshiro, what an honor to meet you!" The, what I assumed was the, Chairman was, annoyingly, overflowing with glee and immature happiness.

"Likewise." I said in my usual clipped, cold tone.

"Oh what fine manners you have! You are truly a gentlemen, ne son?" He asked in a puppy-like expression to the silver haired kid leaning against the wall to the left.

The silver haired kid glared at the Chairman, simply growling out, "I'm not your son!"

"But-but-but.. Are you saying you don't like me as a dad, Zero-kun?" Anime-like waterfalls of tears began spilling only to be halted after a second of realization hit the man, "Oh, ah, Hitsugaya-san this is Zero-kun" he pointed to the glaring silver haired kid, "and Yuuki-chan!" He beamed proudly at the only girl in the room.

"Hn." I simply nodded my head in acknowledgement.

"Hi!" Yuuki-san said. While Zero-kun said nothing. Surprising.

"Yuuki-chan will you show Hitsugaya-san around and show him his room?"

"Yes Chairmen." She stood up, smiling softly at, what she mistakenly assumed, little kid.

"It's Dad!" Chairman Cross whined.

"Come along Shiro-kun!"

"Please," I tried oh so very hard not to yell, "Will you address me by my name." It didn't come across as a question, more like a demand; which was perfectly fine with me. I didn't care one way or another; they were going to learn to not call me that. Only one person can call me that and that is definitely no one here at this school.

I followed her out the door and across the campus and to my room. I started putting all my things away and quickly followed her around the place. We walked past the Moon Dorms and the Sun Dorms. The Moon Dorms, Yuuki-san explained to me, were reserved specially for the Vamp-I mean the Night Students, as they're dubbed here; and the Sun Dorms were for people like them (more likely for her and the others, not him) who were normal and didn't have an unhealthy craving for human blood. I stored the information in the back of my head to use for another day, should the occasion arise. We walked around some more, as Yuuki-san showed me around and told me what was what and other trivial things. I asked her the schedule and she handed me a schedule of the school day. I then asked her about the Night Students and she tensed up. I could tell that I had crossed the line, that or she was sworn to never tell anyone about Night Students. Deciding to back track, I had asked her what made the Night Students so different from the Day Students. She told me that the Night Class were for the highly intellectual and mentally gifted students, it was where all the genius went, they went to class at night, and most of the girls admired them without actually knowing why they did so. Yuuki-san explained it as if they were bees being attracted to honey before they had even tasted the sweetness of the substance; it was just the way it worked: the principal of the thing. They sound like love-sick dogs more than regular human beings.


After we got around the whole campus, Yuuki-kun told me that school started at 8 and I better not be late. I waved good-bye and headed towards my room. I was glad that I didn't share a room with anyone. I laid on my bed and fell asleep instantly. As my internal alarm woke me up, I got dressed in my uniform, brushed my hair and teeth and went on my way. I walked down the stairs to the entrance way and to the door when I noticed whispering swirling around the air. Great, just what I need. A bunch of humans commenting about my height or hair. As I listened closer, they weren't saying anything like that it was more like 'I think he's cute' or 'I hope he's in my class' and 'he looks adorable!' Great. Just what I need, fan girls. I made it to my class and sat down beside Yuuki.

She turned to me and smiled and said hello. I nodded my head and got out my things. The teacher came in and announced that I was new and I just transferred. As I looked around the room I saw many of the girls turn and blush. I quirked an eyebrow and sat back down. I figured out that I probably didn't need to study any of my books. The things they teach here is pathetic. I wasted a lot of time on reading those books when I could be finishing paper work. Great, just great! The bell rings and every girl jumps or leaps out of there seat towards the door. I wonder what's happening when Yuuki grabs my arm. I don't like people touching me, especially people I hardly know. She pulls me to the door, towards the Moon Dorms, and tells me that she would help me get some food after she was done with whatever was out here. I nodded my head and leaned next to the wall. Yuuki and Zero were trying to keep all the Day Students away from the gates but their efforts were futile. Between the screaming rabid fan girls and the commotion about the Night Students made me wonder how special were these vampires? The gates opened up and the girls went crazy.

Out walked the vampires. I recognized some of them from the packet but the others, well I could care less. The first two were Hanabusa and Akatsuki. Followed by Ruka, Shiki, and Rima. Then came Seiren and Kaname, the Pure Blood. The girls went crazy and screamed even louder as Hanabusa started to 'shoot' the girls. How childish these vampires were. Yuuki was trying her best to get these girls under control, I'm grateful that I'm not in her position. The vampires pass but Kaname stops by Yuuki, making Zero get into a defensive position. Kaname puts a hand on Yuuki and Yuuki just stood there like an idiot. I rolled my eyes, and Kaname looked over at me. He starred at me for a long time and then walked away. Interesting.


I was shooting the girls like always when something white and spiky caught my eyes. I looked out of the corner of my eyes and saw a semi-short white haired kid leaning against the walls. Whispers caught my attention. 'Isn't he cute! I'm glad that he's in my class; now I get to see him every day!' and 'You are really lucky, I wish I was in his class.' Or 'He's even cute enough to compete with Idol-senpai.' WHAT? Him? Being able to compete with ME? That's outrages! How dare he come and take my adoring fan girls away from me! That does it, I'm going to-uh, I'm not sure what I'll do to him-but I'm going to do something! I was about to walk over there when Akatsuki put a hand on my shoulder, he shook his head, and motioned me to follow to the night class. I sigh and reluctantly follow, mentally plotting my revenge on the new transfer gaki.


That new kid, I can't get his face out of my mind. There's something different surrounding him; a different aura from vampires and humans. I know that he's a Pureblood but there's something more to him. It's almost like he's admitting death himself. But that's impossible; it's probably his aura surrounding him, since he did come a different part of the world. I see Akatsuki and Hanabusa come in and shut the door; good everyone is here. I clear my throat,

"Everyone, as you well already know, there is a new Day Student Hitsugaya Toshiro."

"What's so special about him? I think he's going to be another Kiryu." Hanabusa said sulkily.

"That may be true but it doesn't hinder the fact that he is a Pureblood like me."

The room went quiet and nobody spoke. Hanabusa dropped his pencil, Akatsuki widened his eyes in surprise, and everyone else had their mouth agape. Kaname turned his head to stare out the window and focus on Yuuki standing on the balcony. He then realized she was with Hitsugaya. He was an odd person; not quiet vampire and certainly not human; so what was he? I turned my gaze back to the Night Class and they all just stared at me, waiting for an answer to thousands of silent questions. I sigh and say,

"Yes, Hitsugaya is a Pureblood Vampire, from the Yamamoto Clan. Even though he has a last name, he is still a Pureblood."

"Then why is he in the Day Class?" Ruka silently whispered.

"I've talked to Chairmen Cross and he said it was to insure protection to the Day Students and to Yuuki and Zero."

"Why would Chairmen Cross ask a vampire to look after humans? It just doesn't make sense!" Ruka yelled this time.

"I can't tell you what his motives are but I can assure you that Hitsugaya is no threat; at least for the moment. I don't know the real reason for his presence but you are not to harm him until we have further information."

"Can we harm him if he attacks us first?" Aidou asked with hope in his voice.

"I don't see why not, but unless he attacks you first you cannot force him into attacking or attack him without noble reason."

"One more thing, what are you going to do about him?" Seiren asked.

"I-"

Kaname was cut off because the door slammed open and the teacher came in. He walked up to the board and started writing the assignment for tonight. He was in the middle of the lecture when an eerie scream filled the darken night. The Night Class students jumped from their seats and headed towards the window. They peered out to the starless night and gazed upon an ugly monster-like-creature with a white mask for a face, a huge built body, and a hole through its chest. The Night Class stood there, appalled by the sight and confused by its presence. There has never been a monster like that on the grounds of Cross Academy. Then, suddenly out of nowhere, a cut appeared across its mask and the monster evaporated. The Night Class stood awestruck by how the monster vanished as quickly as it had come. Everyone was surprised-except one, Kuran Kaname. The moves might have been too fast for vampires that aren't Purebloods; but he saw the movements of a sword and the body it belonged to.
