Summary: Everything has been the same lately at Cross Academy. Zero and Kaname are still bickering over who knows what and Yuuki is smack in the middle of it. Zero still hates vampires although he has accepted being a vampire himself. The Chairman is still his strange tipsy self and etc. etc. etc. One day, Yori is forced to move by her parents and Yuuki's new roommate is Itami Lucina. Lucina came all the way from America and what's strange is that Zero and Kaname have been acting strange ever since they met her. Cross Academy is not the same old academy it was now that Lucina has come. What trouble will this girl bring to Yuuki and everyone at Cross Academy?

A/N - I may change the spelling of Yuuki's name to Yuki sometimes (that's because I forget to add the second "u".)

Prologue

"We're home!" An 8-year old girl and her 13-year old brother chorused. "Hello? Mommy? Daddy? Are you there?" The little girl's voice echoed throughout their summer home in Japan but it got no response. The children reached their parents' room.

"Mommy? Dad- KYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" the little girl cried and her brother's eyes were wide open in horror. There on the bed was their father, whose blood was soaking the sheets of the bed, and their mother, hunched over him protectively. Looming over the two adults was none other than their once gentle uncle who was holding what looked like a poison-tipped knife.

"Why Uncle! Why'd you kill Dad!" the boy cried, his arms full of his little sister who was crying hysterically. There was no answer from the stranger who was once their beloved uncle. He turned to the boy, the knife gleaming in his hands.

"NO! NOT MY SON!" the woman screamed. "What did he ever do to you!"

"He looks exactly like my brother. The brother that you chose to marry. You didn't choose me." The man raised the knife above Ryuu's head.

"NOOOOOOO!" The smell of blood filled the air, but it wasn't Ryuu's.

"MOOOOOM!" The children screamed.

"No... NO! WHY!" their uncle screamed. "You didn't have to die! You could have lived and be with me!"

"I... rather die... than see my children dead... and marry you..."

"What... What have I done?" Their uncle sunk to his knees, kneeling next to the woman he had loved all his life. The woman that had chosen his brother over him. He sobbed heavily and he pointed the knife tip toward his heart. "I'm sorry..." he whispered to the confused and sad children. The knife pierced his heart which stopped instantly.

"My children... listen..."

"Mom! Please... Please don't die!" the children cried, clinging to their mother, the woman who had raised them tenderly and with lots of love.

"Sh... You have to be strong. Mommy and Daddy won't leave you. We'll always be with you... in here." She pointed at their hearts. She turned to the boy. "Take care of your sister for me and your daddy." With her last bit of strength, she kissed the foreheads of both of her children. "I love you," she whispered with her dying breath. Then her eyes closed and her heart stopped beating. The boy and the girl cried together. They cried for the death of their parents. They cried for their uncle who had gone mad. They cried for their sadness and confusion. But most of all, they cried for themselves.
