The eight vampires were lounging in the main room on a Saturday with absolutely nothing to do. Kaname was braiding Yuki's hair, Kain and Aido were talking about the new Korean drama they just discovered, Ruka and Rima were looking at a magazine and pointing at every cute guy they see, and Shiki and Zero just sat on the couch texting each other, being too lazy to talk.
It was July and a typical day at the Moon Dormitory. Ichijo was the only one missing from the group. He was at a manga convention in Chicago for the past week. Ichijo is expected to return sometime today.
As the vampires sat on the couch being big bums, Ichijo came busting in the dorm. "Hey guys! I'm back!" The blonde vampire came in smiling like a monkey.
Everyone turned their head to see Ichijo in the door way of the dorm. The eight vampires lightened up and relieved that Ichijo was finally back. They were missing his smile and charisma for the past week. The dorm did not feel homely without him.
Rima, Ruka, and Yuki stopped what they were doing and tackled Ichijo to the ground. They were showing him a warm welcome home hug. "We missed you Ichijo!"
Ichijo laughed. The guys that were on the couch glared at Ichijo enviously. (Only Shiki, Kain, and Kaname. Wink wink!)
"Are you having fun over there Ichijo?" Shiki said sarcastically while the girls were still hugging the smiling blond tightly.
Ichijo raised an eyebrow then smirked. "You mad bro? You mad?"
Kaname and Kain rolled their eyes and threw pillows at Ichijo.
After the pillow fight and the death glares from the three guys, the girls released Ichijo. Ichijo got on his feet and dusted himself off.
"How was your trip?" Zero said dully. He knew Ichijo was just waiting for someone to ask him that question.
Ichijo gave it thumbs up and said," It was great! There were so much people there! There were people in cosplay, there were plushies, and I even saw Naruto! I was dressed up as Kei Takishima in S.A. Special A. I'll tell you this, all the ladies loved me." Ichijo grinned. The eight vampires coughed. "I also entered a manga contest. Well we won't know who the winner is until they do a drawing and the person that wins will get a text message."
Everyone looked at one another. The room lit up when they heard the word 'prize'. They all wanted to know what the prize was.
"What is the prize?" Rima asked sitting next to Shiki nibbling pocky.
Ichijo stood there and thought for a moment. He rubbed his chin and said," I forgot."
"I wonder if it's a years' worth of pocky." Shiki and Rima said together coincidently. The two looked at each other with a bored expression on their faces.
"Shiki we hang out with each other too much, and this is what happens." Rima said it like this was all Shiki's fault that the two spend so much time together and they now jinx one another.
Shiki shrugged," Maybe…" The chestnut haired vampire sighed.
"I wonder if it's a $5000 dollar gift certificate on free manicures." Ruka gleamed with a flowery aura.
Ichijo and Aido looked at her with a 'Is that girl kidding' expression on their faces.
"Lame." Aido coughed. "I bet it's some lame prize like a dead dog or an umbrella with ribbons."
Ruka threw a pillow at the curly haired vampire. "Why the freak would they want to give a dead dog as a prize?"
Aido shrugged. "Prizes are lame these days. One time, I won a game and they gave me a $5 dollar gift card to Sonic! What the hell am I supposed to buy with five dollars?"
"You can buy five drinks." Kain suggested. Then everyone nodded. Sounded like a good idea.
"Well I hope the prize is a gift card to Macy's. I haven't shopped in ages." Yuki smiled.
Everyone thought about the prize. It has to be good. Then again, prizes these days are always lame. The vampires shrugged and got back to their usual routine.
Ichijo looked at his immortal friends on how selfish they just were. Everyone didn't seem to mind him after that and Ichijo just got his luggage and went to his dorm room.
When Ichijo finally got his luggage up the endless flight of the grand wooden stairs, he headed to his room. There, the blond packed his luggage and sat on his bed. Ichijo looked around and sighed.
Shiki, that idiot, trashed this room while I was gone. Urg! Look at all of these empty pocky boxes lying around. Ichijo touched his temples in annoyance.
Suddenly his phone vibrated in his pocket. Ichijo took his blackberry out and his eyes widened.
While in the main room…
The eight vampires were still lounging on the couches. Yuki fell asleep on Kaname; Zero was playing Angry Bird on his iPhone, Shiki was now looking at the magazine, that Ruka and Rima were just looking at, with Kain and pointing to every cute girl they see (Shiki kept on pointing at Rima when he saw her in the magazine and also when he sees a box of pocky.), Ruka and Rima were talking about the latest fashions, and Aido was slouched on the couch digging for gold.
The 'bum' vampires made the return of Ichijo seem like it never happened. Then there were heavy footsteps running up stairs where the dorms were held. (Down stairs is where the Moon Dorms cafeteria and lounge was held at and on the second floor is where the dorm rooms are. My sketch of the Dorm! XD)
Kaname sighed. Must be some one horse playing. Do they want to be punished? He thought to himself.
Then, the noise of footsteps stopped. On the top of the stairs was Ichijo panting and grasping for air. The blond was smiling but having trouble breathing from all the running.
Everyone looked up. They had a confused expression on their face.
"What are you doing? Running laps around the hallways?" Zero stopped his game of Angry Bird to ask the question.
That was when Yuki woke up from her sleep. "What is Ichijo doing?"
"He was running laps around the hallway." Zero said narrowing his eyes to her.
Ichijo then pulled himself together. Then there was a wide smile on his face.
"ROAD TRIP!" The blond yelled out loud. It was so loud that kangaroos could hear it all the way in Australia.
The eight immortals looked at his friend with a strange look. "Huh?"
Ichijo skipped down stairs and got in front of everyone. "I WON!"
"A years' worth of pocky?" Shiki and Rima said together. Then looked at one another with a 'What the heck' look.
Ichijo looked at the models dazed. "No…"
"A five thousand dollar gift certificate for manicures?" Ruka smiled with excitement.
"Nope."
Yuki then opened her mouth but Ichijo interrupted. "It's not a Macy's gift card either."
"Wait, what did you win? Was it the manga thingy?" Zero asked to make sure.
Ichijo nodded. "And the prize is a trip to San Antonio!" Everyone's mouth dropped. That was a pretty good prize if you ask them.
"Really? That's great!" Ruka said with her hands in the air. "I wonder if they have a good salon there."
Shiki and Rima put their hands on their chins. "I wonder if they have pocky there." The two looked at one another.
"You two should really take a break from each other…" Kain said sweat dropping.
Ichijo continued. "Well they texted me and we get to stay in this five star hotel for three free nights! The best part is, it's located near a river walk. I hear it's really pretty too. There is room service, a pool, buffets, sea world, the zoo, the Alamo, and more. All of it is for free."
Kaname and Zero whistled. That was a good deal.
"Ummn how many people can you invite?" Aido raised his hand.
"They said it's unlimited. We can invite the whole dorm if we wanted."
Ruka and Rima looked at one another. "Really?"
Ichijo laughed. "No, I'm kidding. They said not more than ten."
That was still good news. The nine of them could all go.
The nine vampires were leaving tomorrow at seven in the morning. There will be a bus to pick the up and it was going to be a 3 hour trip. Everyone went to their rooms to pack for the trip. The guys were just crossing their fingers. Hopefully the girls don't bring their whole closet.
The next day at 6:00a.m….
Beep…beeps…beep… Shiki and Ichijo's alarm clock rung. The two sat up on their beds and looked at one another. Today was the day.
Shiki promised to wake up Rima and Ruka because the two are deep sleepers and could sleep threw an alarm clock.
Ichijo was in the restroom washing up and getting dressed. Shiki was shirtless when he sleeps and he was too lazy to put a shirt on. The chest nut haired boy lazily walked to Rima and Ruka's room to wake them up. While he was headed there, Kaname and Zero seemed to be awake and washing up too because of the sound of the water being used.
When Shiki got to the room, he knocked on their door. Rima answered it. She was already awake and fully dressed.
"Morning Shiki." Rima smiled.
Shiki blinked twice. "You're already awake?"
"Well, I couldn't sleep last night. I got so excited!"
Shiki said nothing. He walked over here for nothing.
"Put a shirt on." Ruka suddenly appeared at the door next to Rima.
Shiki nodded. Then suddenly there was a big scream coming from Kain and Aido's room. The three went to see what all the noise was about. Shiki opened the door to Kain's room. The three looked blankly at what Kain was doing.
Kain was jumping on Aido's bed trying to wake him up but turned out looking awkward.
"What are you doing Kain?" Ruka made a face.
Kain lightly blushed in embarrassment. "I'm trying to wake Aido up for the past five minutes but I guess he's a bigger sleeper then you two." He meant that to Rima and Ruka.
The two laughed.
"Try to dump cold water on him." Shiki suggested.
Kain looked at him and hit his head. "Why didn't I think of that?"
The guys went to get a bucket of cold water while Rima and Ruka started to draw on Aido's face with a washable marker. When Kain and Shiki got back from the restroom, the girls drew a fake mustache, eyelashes and even whiskers on Aido's face.
"You like?" Ruka smirked. Rima kept on grinning. They thought they created a master piece, but it was actually a really big mess.
Shiki had a blank expression on his face. "That looks butt ugly…"
Ruka shot death glares at the chest nut haired boy. "Don't hate."
"Okay guys ready?" Kain and Shiki held the bucket of water over Aido's head. "Now!"
The cold water slashed all over Aido's bed. Not only was Aido's bed soaked, but the carpet also got damp. This was a big mess and a lot of clean up ahead of them.
Aido then woke up with a scream. "Ahhhh! I'm drowning!" The curly haired vampire motioned his arms and feet like a fish.
Ruka, Rima, Kain, and Shiki busted out laughing. The washable marker made an even bigger mess. It smeared all over Aido's face and on his hands.
Ruka then slapped Aido in the head. "Wake up fat butt! Get changed. Today is the big day."
"Urg…why do I feel wet?" Aido wiped his eyes.
Ruka rolled her eyes. "You jazzed on yourself that's why."
Aido blinked twice. "What? Again?"
Rima looked at Shiki. Again? So this happened before? The two thought.
Ruka cupped her mouth from laughing. Aido just thoughtlessly admitted he jazzed himself before. Kain sighed. "No she was kidding. Now get up or you will be late."
After that, the Shiki went to get washed up. Kain and Aido did also. Rima and Ruka went to the main living room with their luggage and waited for the others. Ichijo seemed to be done too. As the three waited for the other six, Yuki suddenly came down the stairs with her luggage at one side. Ichijo helped her carry down her bag.
"Where are the other two?" Ruka meant Kaname and Zero.
Yuki turned to look at the top of the stairs. "They should be here any minute now."
It was now 6:50 a.m. and the bus arrived. The boys ran down stairs with their luggage by their sides. Kaname left Seiren in charge. Seiren nodded and walked away.
Everyone packed their belongings into the bus and got into the seats. Rima and Shiki, Ruka and Kain, Kaname and Yuki, and Ichijo and Zero sat together. Aido was alone, but he didn't seem to mind. He took up the whole seat with his legs.
The vampires were sleeping in the bus while they were waiting for the three hour trip to San Antonio. Everyone imagined what it would be like in their dreams.
Three hours flew by pretty fast. The bus man helped unload the back and the vampires walked into the River walk Hotel. The view was breathtaking. There were fountains and marble floors that shinned in the light of the sun. The elevators were glass and a beautiful view of the outside river walk.
Ichijo went to check up while the other eight vampires sat in the lounging area. Everyone was taking in the surrounding of the hotel, but one problem was the people in the hotel were blushing and staring at the eight. It happens often when they go to a new area and people point and admire them. They were vampires. What did they expect?
Ichijo finally checked in and came back with four cards for the hotel rooms. The blonde handed one card to the girls (The three will be sharing a room), Zero and Kaname (The two sharing a room), Kain and Aido (The two will be sharing one), and one for Ichijo and Shiki.
"Okay, each of us will be sharing a room. There's only one bed but I think you will handle sleeping together." Ichijo smiled. He ordered a luggage boy to carry their bags to their rooms while they headed up first.
When they got to the third floor on the elevator, The guys rooms were neighboring one another while the girls were just across the hall (Shiki and Ichijo's room is 404, Kaname and Zero's is 406, Kain and Aido's is 408, and the girls are 407). Kain and Aido walked into their room and the rooms were beautiful. There was one bed with white fluffy covers and a marble bathroom. The flat 52" screen T.V. was facing the bed. The room was bigger than their rooms back at Cross Academy. While the two admired their room, Zero entered the door that neighbored from theirs (Do you guys know what I mean? It is like when you're in a hotel room there is a door that leads to the other room.).
Zero whistles. "This hotel is nice."
Kain nodded. All of the rooms were the same. Aido was unpacking his belongings in the closet. In the corner of the closet was a pair of baby shoes. The curly haired vampire grabbed the shoes and examined them.
"What are these doing here?" Aido showed Zero and Kain who were talking about that to do after they unpack.
The two looked at Aido. "What are you doing with those?" Zero questioned. "Did you steal another pair of baby shoes again?"
Aido winced at the old man haired vampire. "No, and I didn't steal them. I just happened to find these in the closet."
"The last person that had this room must have forgotten it here." Kain shrugged.
That might have been it. Aido just ignore the shoes and tossed it in the trash.
Kaname walked into the room and said," Hey, we're planning on going out to one of the restaurants."
"Okay." Zero walked out of the door. Kain followed and Aido was putting on his shoes. Aido was the last one out but before he closes the door, there was a faint baby's laugh in the room.
The haunting is just beginning! I hope you guys liked this chapter! I promise it gets better and creepier! There is actually a story to this. It's creepy and if you want to read it, it's on my profile page!
San Antonio is in Texas and so am I! I kind of made the VK people live in America. I have no idea why. It seems confortable when the events take place here! XD
Also, there was a question from ReiHiragi from Haunted Hour 2. I have no idea why the sons killed their parents. My aunt just told me the sons just killed them. Sorry that really wasn't a direct answer.
Don't forget! REVIEW REVIEW REVEW! XDD
