One Step Closer

Disclaimer: Vampire Knight is not mine it belongs to Matsuri Hino. If it was mine it most likely would never get finished...

Helpful Stuff! The words in italics are the part of the song there is one time where the words are in italics with quotation marks that means the character is saying that part of the song.

I can not take this anymore.

Zero stood on the edge of a cliff, staring down at the hungry waters. His lavender eyes where emotionless.

Today was the day.

"I'll end it all." He said.

Saying everything I said before. All these words they make no sense. I found bliss in ignorance.

Zero pulled out his gun. He looked at the inscription on the sleek silver. This was his favorite gun and he would hold it to the end. It would see its last bloodshed today.

"ZERO!" Came a voice, one that he hoped not to hear.

Zero turned to her, the cause of this pain, this torture, but he didn't expect HIM to be there.

The reason for it all. The main problem.

Standing mere feet from Zero where the Kurans. Yuki and Kaname.

"What are you doing, Zero!" Yuki screamed, her brown eyes wide.

Zero's eyebrows knit together. "Why should I tell you? Is it not obvious enough?" He turned his bone chilling glare to Kaname. "You don't need me anyway."

Kaname wore his usual look, he placed a hand on Yuki's shoulder, softly.

"Zero, I don't understand..." Yuki said.

The level D gripped his gun harder. "What is there to understand? It's simple really. It's so obvious what I'm doing."

Kaname lowered his head some. "But Kiryu, do you not find this... slightly childish, the way you're dealing with your pain?"

Yuki's eyebrows shot up, her lips parting. "Pain?"

Zero grit his teeth and growled. "Don't tell me you didn't know, Yuki. Kaname Kuran even knows."

Yuki shook her head. "How can I know when you don't tell me anything!" She yelled.

Zero screwed his eyes shut, his teeth gritting harder. He didn't want to look at them, didn't dare displeasure himself with the sight of those... people, if they could be called that at all. "I don't need to voice my feelings to someone who doesn't care enough to take them into consideration." He ground out.

Yuki frowned. "I do take your feelings into consideration! I always have."

"Yuki... calm down..." Kaname said, squeezing her shoulder gently.

"Then tell me Yuki, what do you think is my problem?" Zero said, his eyes a little less angry.

The girl was at a loss for words, she scanned her eyes across the short expanse of the cliff, as if it held all her answers.

"Exactly." The ex-human spat.

"Kiryu, you must understand, Yuki is trying her best to please us all, to please you. I have but one simple question to ask; Are you taking her feelings into consideration?" Kaname inquired.

Less I hear the less you say, you'll find that out anyway. Just like before...

Zero lowered his head some. "Of course I have."

"Then listen to her feelings."

Everything you say to me, takes me on step closer to the edge and I'm about to break.

"What does it matter to you! I'm just a pawn in your game! I'm expendable, right!" Zero was getting angrier the longer they kept this conversation going. "I should just shoot myself now... save myself the trouble of waiting."

"No, Zero! Please! What are you talking about? What do you mean pawn!" Yuki cried.

Zero gave a dark smirk. "It must be wonderful to be so oblivious, so naive, to never have a care in the world, to always be protected by your dear, sweet, Kaname Kuran."

Yuki looked shocked. "Zero..." She shook her head. "How could you say such things?"

I need a little room to breath, cause I'm one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break.

Zero shook his head. "How can I say it? Because it's true... It's all true!"

Yuki looked down and away with misty eyes "Why? Why do you do this to me?"

I find the answers aren't so clear. Wish I could find a way to disappear. All these thoughts they make no sense. I found bliss in ignorance, nothing seems to go away. Over and over again. Just like before...

Zero gripped his head, far beyond angry. "Why would you do what you're doing to me! You and Kaname Kuran! Everything to you is about Kaname! Always!"

Everything you say to me takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break. I need a little room to breath, cause I'm one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break. Everything you say to me takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break. I need a little room to breath, couse I'm one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break.

"I care about you to Zero! I always have! Don't you know that!" Yuki yelled, she was getting tired of Zero's antics.

Kaname could feel the tension grow thicker until it consumed the three of them. "Kiryu, please calm down. All this tension is good for no one."

Yuki nodded. "Please Zero, listen to Kaname. We only want to help."

Zero pointed at them. "I've had enough of your so called "help"! All the help you've-"

"Zero, please just take-"

"SHUT UP WHEN I'M TALKING TO YOU!"

Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up when I'm talking to you! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! I'm about to break.

Yuki backed up some, even Kaname had a mildly surprised look upon his face.

"The only help you've given me is the help of driving me insane!" Zero screamed.

Yuki's eyes widened, tears began to form as her lower lip trembled. "B-but Zero...why didn't you ever tell me?"

The ex-human glared daggers at her. "There was no point in telling you. There never was." He said "You only care about your Kaname Kuran and that's it."

Yuki shook her head. "No, Zero, that's not true!" She tried to defend herself, but Zero was dead set on his motives, nothing was going to sway him.

"Yes it is, but you're to stupid to realize it." Zero hissed.

Everything you say to me takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break. I need alittle room to breath, cause I'm one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break.

Zero looked straight into Yuki's tear-filled eyes. His lavender eyes where filled with so many emotions: Hurt, anger, sadness.

"Don't you spill tears that where never meant for me." He said, his voice angry.

"Zero... Please...don't do this..." Yuki cried.

Everything you say to me takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break.

"I have to do this, I have to end it all. All my pain all my suffering I need to put an end to it." Zero said. He took a step back toward the edge of the cliff.

"No, Zero! Please, I'll do anything! Just don't end it like this!" Yuki cried.

Kaname closed his eyes. "Yes, Kiryu. This is no way to go." He said.

I need a little room to breath, cause I'm one step closer to the edge...

"No, this is exactly the way it should end." He said.

And I'm about to...

"Goodbye." Zero fell backwards off the cliff, to the waters that where ready to consume him.

"ZERO!" Yuki screamed.

Break

The trigger to the bloody rose gun was pulled.

The water devoured Zero greedily.

The pain was gone.

They where gone.
