Hello! This is my Vampire Knight Afterstory. My story is based on Kaname x Yuuki but I have my own main characters. This story starts 20 years later after Yuuki left with Kaname. All is settled now and the main character is Kuran Chiyumi (Kaname & Yuuki's daughter). Here you'll see how she live her life as a vampire. And I added some twist, too. :)
Hope you like it
Please review! Thanks :)
Chapter 1
The sun is bright and the atmosphere is moist. A beautiful day for anyone – anyone human, that is. Everything looks so calm and peaceful. Indeed, a perfect day to begin with.
Twitching around their bed, Kuran Chiyari found the gentlest light harsh as it hit her vampire eyes. "Yumi-chan, could you please close the curtains? It's burning me!" The girl Yari called Yumi-chan was wearing a black uniform and looked exactly like her but with longer and burgundy hair whilst hers was Ash Blonde. The room darkened as Kuran Chiyumi closed the long velvet European curtains. They have been living in the Chairman's Mansion for a while now, and being the Chairman's grandchildren do have its own advantages. They never wanted to live in separate dorms but they do attend different classes. Yari, being easily sunburned, cannot attend the Day Class as Yumi does.
They are twins but they have so little in common. Never in her life did Yumi admire kittens and bunnies. Yari loved shopping and watching movies. But the interesting part is that they do get along well. They liked each other even when they fight sometimes. They get along like crazy, and that's what twins are, indeed.
After closing the curtains, Yumi continued preparing for school.
"Hey, Yumi-chan, do you really want to attend the Day Class? You can always transfer to the Night Class and go to school every night with me." Yari sat up on their bed and combed her hair.
"And being unable to do as I please again?" she chuckled a bit, "Thanks, Yari, but no thanks. Besides, I don't want to be around those suck-ups."
Yumi likes to live a human life as long as she can. Just like her grandmother Juuri did. "Seriously, Yumi-chan, they're not being suck-ups. They're just doing what Otou-sama –" Yari couldn't finish what she's saying because her twin was already gone.
"Jeez." And she went back to her sleep.
With a deep sigh, she opened the door and stepped one foot outside. But to her surprise, she bumped a boy probably around her age, wearing a Day Class Uniform.
"What do you think you're doing? You're on my way." she said to the boy.
The boy was shocked. "I-I'm sorry, I was just wondering where the office of the chairman is. I'm really sorry." he said with a bow.
He's still on my way. What a pain!
"This is his mansion and his office is not here." she said.
"Can you please show me the way?" he said with his round eyes.
She sighed and said, "Fine. Follow me."
Yumi lead the boy to the chairman's office. He was a typical student with wheaten hair and hyacinth eyes and he's handsome, too – but she definitely doesn't like him.
"Um… I hope I didn't bother you." He actually wanted to start a conversation.
"Don't worry, you already did." She said.
Well, that was cold.
Her long below-the-knee hair brushed across his face as she walked. She smells like violets. The boy thought. As they reached the Chairman's Office, Yumi entered the room without saying a word. The boy followed her and greeted the Chairman, "Good morning." She turned around and said, "Next time, tell your precious students where your office is so they don't end up bumping someone dangerous, huh, 'Chairman'?" She walked out and shut the door slightly hard. The Chairman, Cross Kaien, shouted his thanks to the girl, "Thanks, Yumi-chan. You're really very helpful!" and then turned to the boy.
Upon entering her classroom, she looked at her classmates with the same plain face. The boys, seeing their pale-but-gorgeous idol, stopped chatting and went to her seat before her. They wiped her chair and table. Then, one of them went to Yumi, got her bag and said quietly, "Good morning, Yumi-sama." She gave her bag and proceeded to her chair. The boys lined up in front of her, greeted her, "Good morning, Yumi-sama." and went back to their chatting. It was really annoying – for her. It was almost like being in the Night Class. And she hates it.
But, come to think of it, being in the Day Class is a little better – little.
Their teacher came in and introduced a transfer student – the boy who bumped her not too long ago. He introduced himself with a gentle smile, "Good morning, my name is Misato Seijiro. Nice to meet you all." The girls giggled as they saw him smile. The teacher silenced them and told Seijiro to sit on the 'blank sit right over there'. He looked for a blank seat and saw a seat beside a girl with the long burgundy hair. He sat and talked to Yumi. "Hey, thanks for earlier. As thanks, mind if I buy you something for lunch later?" Hearing this, the boys, screamed like crazy.
Huh? Seijiro thought.
"Okay." Yumi flatly answered him. With this, the boys' souls went to heaven. He smiled at her and paid attention to the teacher.
LUNCH TIME!
Yumi stood up and grabbed her bag. Seijiro noticed that, and then hurried after her.
"Hey, wait!" Yumi turned around and looked at him.
"What do you want me to buy?" he asked after finally catching up.
"Anything, I don't care." Yumi said without looking.
Running to the canteen, Seigiro said, "Wait me over there, okay?"
Annoying. Really.
She sat under an old maple tree.
Without any movement, she said, "So, why are you out here, huh, Yari?"
Yari's hair was curled now. It bounced on her shoulders as she jumped down from the tree.
"I don't know. I guess I just wanted to see my twin."She smiled and sat beside Yumi while resting her head on her twin's lap.
"I was merely away for four hours." Yumi said while stroking her twin's hair.
Ignoring Yumi's last sentence, Yari sat up saying, "So, tell me, Yumi-chan, was that your boyfriend just now?"
Yumi's face became grim.
Yari scared, she said, "Uh-oh… Sorry sis, I really am."
"I know you are," she stroked her twin's hair one more time, "I bet the heat's just getting in your head. You better head back to the mansion right now. I'll get someone to bring an umbrella for you."
Yumi dialed on her phone and talked to the one at the other end, "Suichiro, bring an umbrella here. We're here under the old maple tree. Please hurry."
Within three minutes, a boy with an umbrella arrived. "Here, Yumi-sama," noticing Yari, the boy said."Good morning, Yari-sama." Yari nodded then, smiled at him. The boy bowed, Yumi thanked him and he went away.
"Here. Now, hurry to the mansion before it gets too hot." Yumi gave Yari the umbrella and stood up on her own. Yari looked at her twin, smiled and stood up, as well. She opened her umbrella and hugged her twin goodbye. Before she let go of Yumi, she whispered,"You know, sis, you should really consider treating those boys a little nicer."
Yumi smiled and said, "You know better." Yari waved her goodbye and walked to the mansion.
Seijiro rushed with a bag of taiyaki and two bottles of water. He then, sat beside Yumi and handed her the bag.
"Did I take too long?"
Yumi accepted the bag and pulled out a taiyaki, "Not really… What's this?"
Amazed, Seijiro said, "This is a taiyaki. Haven't you eaten one before?"
"Taiyaki…"Yumi said while flipping the fish-bread-thing over and over.
It looks a little weird.
She then, took a bite from the bread not noticing that Seijiro was watching her.
"It's delicious. I like it."
Seigiro smiled and said, "I'm glad you did. By the way, I'm Seijiro."
Yumi took another bite, "I know you're name, you said it in class this morning, didn't you?"
I guess she's really something. He thought
"Err… So, what's your name?" he tried to smile despite of the grim atmosphere.
"Chiyumi, but many call me Yumi." she took another bite.
"Can I call you Yumi-chan, then?" he handed her a bottle of water.
Yumi accepted the bottle and said, "Whatever." Then, she took another bite of the taiyaki again. After she finished her first taiyaki, she pulled out another one.
"So why were you in the Chairman's mansion this morning?" he tries to start a conversation again.
"I live there." And she took a bite.
"You live there? So you're the Chairman's daughter, I guess." He said.
"Luckily, I'm not. I'm his granddaughter." She drank water a bit.
"The Chairman has a granddaughter? Already?" He's that old? "But he still looks so young."
"Yeah, I wonder what's that old man's secret."
Silence.
The wind blew and the leaves under the maple tree made music as they were carried by the wind.
Awkward. Seijiro thought.
"Well, I didn't quite catch your family name." Finally, he started to eat his own taiyaki.
"Kuran." She took another bite.
Kuran. Bingo!
"Let's go. It's already time." She stood up and threw her half-emptied water in the trash bin. Seijiro stood up as well. Then suddenly, a handsome ginger-haired guy wearing a Night Class uniform jumped out of nowhere.
"Hey, Yumi-chan! Long time no see!" he said as he ruffled Yumi's hair.
"Cut it out, Kamari." She said as she took his hand off her head.
"Hey, aren't you glad to see me?"
"No."
"Awww… This is no fun. I thought you'd be happy to see me again." He crossed his arms and made a face.
"By any chance, why would I?"
"I don't know. Why would you, indeed?" he said and then, smirked.
"Leave me alone, Kamari. C'mon, Seijiro, let's go."
"So, who do we have here?" Kamari circled Seijiro while looking at him. "Is this your boyfriend, huh, Yumi-chan?"
The wind blew harder towards Kamari. It was like the wind intentionally did that.
"Please let her be, Kamari." A voice from behind Kamari said.
"Yano! Hey, what's up? Haven't seen you lately." Kamari told the guy behind him.
Shoutou Yano was a pureblood. But that fact didn't stop him and Kaido Kamari from being friends. He has a strawberry blond hair and eyes as red as Yumi's. And there's no point hiding the fact that he was good-looking – just like the other vampires. Or better yet, more than the other normal vampires.
"If you stay here a little longer, you two will be late. Please do hurry." Yano said.
"I don't need you telling me what to do. Just tell your annoying friends to leave me alone." Yumi said coldly.
"No need to be so cold, Yumi-chan." Kamari pouted. He's really in a happy mood right now to be able to hug Yumi from behind.
"What do you think," she held Kamari's arms and flipped him over. "you're doing?"
"Ouch! That hurt, Yumi-chan." He said as he fell on the ground.
"Don't you EVER do that again!" She gave him an eerie glare and went on her way.
When Yumi and Seijiro were out of sight, both Yano and Kamari felt a powerful presence.
"I really wonder where she got that attitude." A woman in a coat said. She looks a lot like Yumi and Yari but with chocolate brown hair. She was smiling.
"Kuran Yuuki-sama!" Kamari bowed as he said her name.
"Please, you don't have to do that," She said with the same gentle smile on her face. "It's been a while, Yano-kun, Kamari-kun."
"How have you been, milady?" Yano said as he held Yuuki's hand and bowed to her.
"I'm fine. But, you really don't have to do that every time. I really do feel uncomfortable." She said in a slightly awkward smile.
Yano and Kamari smiled at her, as well.
"So, what is it that really brought you here, Yuuki-san?" Yano said.
Yuuki's face became serious, "That boy, earlier, is the next heir of the Akutagawas. His father, Akutagawa Tsukasa, was found dead in his office last night. I bet his poor son has no knowledge of it as we speak."
"And nobody knows who did it, as well?" Kamari said.
"No. But Kaname said his assets came in the crime scene before the Association and found dissolved particles of BL-XXXV 063 inside his empty tea cup." She said.
"But there's nothing wrong if a human drinks a blood tablet –" Kamari said
"Yes, nothing wrong, indeed. If it was an ordinary blood tablet." She looked a little worried then.
"Could it be –" Yano said
"The particles of blood tablet found in his tea cup were improvised. The blood used in that blood tablet was a pureblood's blood."
"And when a pureblood's blood is used to make a blood tablet, it can make…" Kamari looked up, finally understanding things.
"Yes, a powerful poison for humans and a really good vitamin for us vampires." Yano continued.
"Yano-kun, I wanted to ask a favor from you… Can you promise me to protect all people residing in this place, whether a vampire or not?" Yuuki said.
Yano stared at her for a while, and then, said, "Yes, I promise."
"Thank you. I'll be going now. Good bye." And she left.
"Kamari, please tell Aidou and Ana to keep an eye on Misato Seijiro," he paused. "It seems that Yumi already knows what happened." Yano continued.
"You think so?" Kamari's lively and cheerful side came back again.
"She usually doesn't talk to anyone like that."
"Maybe your just jealous, huh, Yano?" Kamari chuckled and left.
Just what are you up to, Yumi? Yano thought.
