Author Notes: Hi everyone! Sorry about not updating much on my two-three stories. I am having a somewhat writer's block due to this story that apparently won't like me think of anything else. I blame Kaname and Zero *gets a shoe thrown at her*. See! I now totally blame them *pout*. Anyways, this story isn't suppose to be yaoi related but if you want to think of it as that, then by all means. And just in case, I'll put a warning for all. I hope you like it!
Warning! Implied KanameXZero (ZeroXKaname?) Soft shounen ai, nothing hardcore or.... rated X.
Though it was not yet winter nor autumn, the frosty winds blew. Most girls would not go outside in the chilly wind, but most girls would drop dead if they didn't see their favorite vampire every day. Kiryu Zero stood there on his guard. Everyone knew he detested the girls here. But some had the guts to like him even for a tiny bit then return back with full hatred, anger or pure jealously of Cross Yuki. Sometimes he wondered what it was like to be one of the vampire in the night class. To bring girls by their knees. But then again, what kind of person would Zero be if he only thought about girls. He had his priorities and the first priority was finding Ichiru and/or killing Shizuka. And besides, anybody can say that Zero wasn't like the rest.
Night came down fast. The dark clouds had already covered the sunset. An ominous aura also arose. Zero was on alert. And it also seems that Yuki was also beginning to feel the aura surround the school. Zero looked down and saw the forest move with the wind an stashed in it, a human figure. He jumped down and landed on the ground without a sound to be heard, similar to a cat. The figure stood there, not moving.
"You. Step away from the shadows." Zero commanded
"Are you going to kill me?" it replied.
Zero hesitated. No student in the building would say that. After all, it is a school, not jail brig. The figure started to move forward, stepping away from the forest's shadows. An old woman appear with a dark cloak wrapped around her. This woman didn't seem ordinary. It was kind of obvious when you look into her power-driven eyes. Zero stepped back. If it was a vampire, he would know because all vampires had a aura surrounding them but if it was a vampire hunter, it would have come and killed him already. The woman wasn't a vampire nor a vampire hunter. She came at Zero with full force and intent of killing him. Zero wasn't about to let a old hag like her kill him. He'd much rather die at the hands of his most bitter rival, Kuran Kaname.
Yuki jumped down from the balcony, afraid of Zero being hurt. Zero saw her moving closer and jumped back, pushing her away.
"Stay away, Yuki!" Zero commanded.
"But Zero, I--"
The old hag went after Zero and almost slit Yuki's cheek with her razor sharp nails, which more and more seemed like claws. The old woman jumped back in the safety of the forest. She took out a bottle of a green substance. Automatically, Zero pushed Yuki harder against the brick walls and went after the old hag. Zero knew that whatever was inside the bottle, couldn't be good. Especially if the old hag took it out during the midst of their fight. The old hag took out an old wooden cane and smacked Zero across his face. Though it didn't do anything but leave a small mark on his face, he continued to try and get the bottle away from the old woman. She chuckled and threw the bottle on the ground.
BOOM!
"Zero!"
"Yuki!"
The bottle exploded, leaving a mist of green smoke. Zero covered his mouth, thinking it was poison. He looked around but did not see anything, only green smoke. His heart pounded and immediately fell on the floor, coughing and chocking out of nowhere.
