"Sakura, go get him!" He called out into the cold night air, watching as a black shadow in the form of a dog raced past him and after the fleeing figure, running after the two as he loaded his silver gun, going as fast as he could. His violet eyes stared the silhouettes down when he heard a snarl and snapping. "Away!" He commanded to the large wolf, his foot stamping on the E's heaving chest. "Good night," he whispered, a bang ringing through the woods, his foot on the cold grass and powdered in dust. He looked over at a young girl who wore a white uniform who was fingering through her hair. "I can't complain that time," he smiled, "Sakura."

Sakura smiled and stood, walking over and trailing two skinny fingers under his chin. "What's there to complain about? I'm evidently perfect," she teased, turning to smirk at him. "Zero, I do say... You are very bossy." She giggled before skipping along the path back to headquarters, Zero boredly putting Bloody Rose away and following her from behind. He watched her long black hair swing from side to side as she moved, then finally grinned.

"You're a child..." He complained while keeping the same grin, his longish silver hair moving in front of his eyes as Sakura turned to look at him, her eyes a blood-thirsty red.

"Only when I want to be," she smiled, her eyes returning to their silver color before she stopped, waiting for him to catch up. She was quiet as he put a silver necklace around her, then checked his ear piercing. As he turned, he looked at the cross on her necklace that shone above her breast, then began to walk into the association with her. He looked at the people surrounding them, then glanced over to Sakura, only to find that she was gone.

"Sakura?" He called, looking around the now empty surrounding.

"-ro..."

"Sakura, where are you?" He called again.

"Zero!"

His eyes cracked open, looking up to see the normal annoying brunette above him, smacking his chest. "Get lost, Yuki," he growled.

"No!" She stood up finally, crossing her arms. "Get up!" She commanded. "We have to start patrolling!" She threw a white sleeve on his face, then marched off.

He sighed, pulling it off and sitting up, looking around. No Association, no vampires, no one else. Just the setting sun, the sound of the fountain, and himself. What was I doing, dreaming of her? He thought as he stood up and pulled the sleeve on. She's been dead for four years... Zero sighed, walking off towards the general direction of the Moon Gate, hands in his black pockets.

The evening went on as always. Zero scared a few poor obsessed girls, we slacked off and got kicked by Yuki, and he glared at the night students. He sighed when the sun started to rise, greeting the worthless night students with a scowl and nothing else. Zero began walking to the main building of Cross Academy when he sensed something behind him. He whirled around to see a girl about his age hiding behind the trees.

"Zero~" The girl sang with a smile and giggle. "Those vampire students are pretty interesting, huh?" The girl wore only a white dress, black hair falling neatly down her back and her silver eyes were smiling.

"Wh..." He stood there in shock for a moment before hurrying over, only for her to run away. "Wait!" He dodged trees from left to right, stopping at the large metal fence, to find himself alone. "Sakura..." He whispered, gripping the fence tightly. Am I seeing things...?

"I feel bad for playing such a mean trick on him..." A silver-haired girl murmured as a boy stood behind her as they chatted inside a bedroom in an elegant residence. "What do you think?" She looked over at the boy as he stood there silently. Sighing, she watched as the black haired girl walked in. "Play like that until we get there, okay?" She giggled. "A cutie like you will be great help..." The girl giggled and kicked her legs softly in the chair, looking outside of the window into the dim morning.

"Yes... My lady," the girl smiled as her full face shown through the darkness, her smile soft and gentle as her eyes. This will be fixed soon enough... Zero...
