Always and Forever…?

Hello there ^-^ it's iheartsasuke here and this is my first fanfiction, so sorry for any grammatical errors and what not. I started this story about two years ago and forgot about it. When I wanted to write it again, I lost all my notes on the story (*sad*) So now it is from memory. Hopefully I won't let you guys down.

Oh, and Vampire Knight isn't mine, but if it were, I would totally change the main pairing =D

Here is what font corresponds with what:

thoughts would be like this hello

and speech is hello

and normal story telling is hello.

Chapter One: Reminiscence

"How long has it been, Zero-kun?"

"Exactly one year on this day...Come on, we still have our Guardian duty on today."

As Zero had said, it had been one year since the bloodthirsty pure blood king, Kuran Rido, had come to the school grounds and tainted it with his blood, disappearing in fragments of diamonds which relieved the world of his existence.

But, as he disappeared, the use of Kaname at the school was no longer necessary as he did not have to protect the Kuran Princess, Yuuki. They had set off, Kaname and Yuuki, to the place where they can be together forever, as all purebloods should.

After all that commotion, Zero was left to take care of the duties placed upon him by his best friend, and the love of his life, on her departure. He still remembered her; the way she would smile at him and make his day full of hope; the way she always pretended to be okay so that he wouldn't worry about her; the way she looked at him full of happiness and protectiveness. He never fully understood why she had risked her life for the safety of his whilst Hiou Shizuka arrived at the Academy.

But, Zero was unable to do this role alone; there were still night class students to take care of. The chairman, unable to find a replacement, had thought of closing the night section down, but, Yori, after the discovery of her best friend being a Vampire, had offered herself to be apart of the Disciplinary committee with Zero.

Although the day class girls were upset none of them were able to be apart of the team, they were glad that one of their own was able to be a guardian, still not knowing about the secrets of the vampire society. Time passed, and Yori was taught everything about the vampire world from the Chairman and Zero, as both were expert vampire hunters.

She soon received an anti-vampire weapon of her own. This was a dagger tail whip supposed to be descended from the Kiryuu clan and was one of a kind. Like Yuuki's Artemis rod, only a human was able to hold it. Zero, being sarcastic after some tough times, jokingly asked if Yori was a secret vampire. Yori, of course laughed, and said she wasn't.

Upon receiving the weapon, she was unable to give it a name. She thought day and night, class by class, until she finally stumbled across a name, one that was not very regular; Moonlit Sun. She laughed at this name at first, but thought it to be clever. Yori also discovered Zero was a vampire, but okay with that fact as he was able to control his thirst now, unable to randomly lose control and succumb to a level E status. Both had gotten along well after Yuuki's departure, but, they could never forget how their best friend could leave them, still unsure as to why she did that.

"Come on Yori, time to go...Don't tell me you are still doing your supplementary classes." Zero pointed out. Both Zero and Yori still had supplementary classes, but, the teachers had become a lot more firm and strict on their punishments since neither of them were related to the Chairman.

The long walk to the Night class section was one full of silence as neither had nothing to say about the job; it was simply the fact that both were still burdened by the fact vampires were still at their school, threatening the peace of the humans, especially Zero as he was one of them too.

But the Night class was quite different. Although their popularity with the day class girls decreased as members of the class had followed their leader, there were still quite a lot of them in the Moon dormitory and so, Day class girls showed up to voice their affections and admiration for the students. Shiki Senri was appointed the leader of the class as his father, although brutal and crazy, was a pureblood, which made him fit the position well. Ichijou Takuma was still the vice-president, but grew quiet as the year progressed as he was the only Ichijou left in the vampire society. Zero and Shiki maintained a good friendship as both were able to get along and talk with each other. Yori was able to befriend Rima, and the two of them best really close, almost like sisters.

As the night class students went to class, the day class girls went to their dorms.

"Ne, Zero-kun, I wonder…" Yori said quietly.

"Un, what is it Yori?" Zero said, turning his head around to face her, unloading the bullets in his Bloody Rose gun.

"I…well…Do you ever wonder how Kuran-senpai and Yuuki are doing? I mean, I do hope they are happy but...but.." Small tears began to fall down her cheeks as a painful memory was arising. "…but, do you think they regret leaving us? I mean, I really miss being able to see my best friend."

Zero, able to understand that feeling of loneliness, went to Yori. He put his hand on her shoulder and said "I know how you feel…That too happened to me. The feeling where you lose everything as someone rips them away from you. It's almost like you lose a piece of yourself in the process. But don't worry, she'll be back…and we'll be waiting."

Zero, who was still keeping his word that he would destroy Kuran Kaname as he awakened Yuuki from her deep slumber, kept a sincere face while comforting Yori as it was now his turn to protect someone important to him. Yori had become like a sister to Zero, a sister in whom he could confide in when he was emotionally distraught; a sister who was able to help him get over his broken heart, but most of all, a sister who made him feel like he was apart of a family again.

Both glanced at each other and began walking towards the chairman's office, wondering how Yuuki was as they slowly looked up to the starry night sky.

"How could you do this, onii-sa—Kaname-senpai?" Yuuki tearfully said, unable to process what was happening. Kaname was calmly sitting down, grinning angrily to his fiancée.

"How could I do this, you say? How? I just had to, for the purpose of protecting us, the purebloods from future harm." Kaname's plan of destroying the Council of Elders was accepted by Yuuki and his followers, but, his plan to destroy all non-pureblood vampires had caused him to be corrupted and out of control.

"Do you still love me? Huh? Say it?" he demanded.

"I loved you, with all my heart. But, what you are doing now…how can I love a beast corrupted by his fear of losing someone who loves him and planning on destroying the whole vampire race just to make sure she stays with him. If all this goes through, would she not just leave him and go find another to be with?" Yuuki said, somewhat disgusted and disturbed with his idea of this. "Do you know how many of your friends will go when you do this?"

Kaname had enough. Slowly, he got up from his chair and walked to Yuuki. He grabbed her by the arms and lifted her up against the wall. "Friends? What friends? All I have are followers who only do as I say as I am their king. You know that once my plan goes through, no-one will be able to take you away from me."

Yuuki smiled. "You may think so, but what if I were to take myself away from you? Then you would have no-one. You don't have control over me." Kaname dropped her, and glared his blood-red eyes at her. "I think its best you leave for now…I'll see you later tonight."

"Don't count on it," She said, "I'll go to...to.." She was unable to go anywhere as all her friendship ties had been severed.

"See, all you have is me now?" Kaname said evilly.

"No, that's not true." Yuuki, whose tears were welling up inside of her, ran out of the room in hopes of leaving that wretched man.

"I'll just visit the Chairm – I mean father and see how everyone is at Cross Academy." Yuuki said positively to herself. Upon bringing this thought into her head, she thought of Zero and Yori and how they would react. "I hope they'll be happy to see me," she gladly thought and giggled.

"That's right Yuuki…You don't love me anymore. You love him. How can I compete with him?" Kaname thought to himself. "The only way to deal with a traitor is to do the greatest of sin." Kaname yawned as he turned off the lights in his home and drifted off to his bed.

Yuuki gathered her personal belongings in a bag and was about to leave. She had glanced over at the picture of her and Zero on their first day of Senior High School. "Gomendayo, Zero. I'll be with you soon…and make it up to you big time." She pictured a figure in her mind, 2 men she loved…but one was starting to overshadow the other.

She giggled at her thought and wondered if she should bring a gift for him. Not only that, she would have to bring an extra gift for the Chairman. "Geez, I hope the chairman is okay…I hope that he didn't have a dark phase after I left. I better make sure to think of a way to make him happy. Oh, and Yori. "

With this list of to-do items, she walked out of the house and said goodbye...never to walk through its doors again.

Chapter Two: Celebrations

Four days after that tearful night, Yori was busily preparing for something extravagant. Zero, who had opened the door to the chairman's office, saw Yori prepare banners around the room

"Seriously, Yori… is this necessary? I mean, she isn't going to show up miraculously you know," the silver haired vampire had said. He looked over to his companion as he came through the door, taking off his school blazer and placing it on the armrest of the chair. "What? The chairman said it was okay if I prepare it here this time," Yori said.

I hope it wasn't boring since it is an introductory chapter. =D Thanks for reading. I'll try and update regularly, probably once a week! Constructive criticism is welcome, just no bashing please. ^^
