AN: This is my first Vampire Knight fic. I know this is a dying fandom but I've only recently watched the anime and got hooked. I've read almost all stories featuring Kaze. Now, I can't help but write one of my own. I do have other stories I should finish first but I just have to get this story out first. I don't know if I'm gonna get any reader for this story or not, but needless to say, I will appreciate some.

Anyway, this is an mxm yaoi mpreg fic. And a very dark one as well. All kind of warnings that are usually given on such fics are applied here. So if you are not into mxm or mpreg then please read no further. Also sorry for all the grammatical mistakes.

Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Knight. If I did, Kaname would be head over heels for Zero. *Sighing heavily in grief*

Chapter 1: Separation

The moon in the sky was obscured by the clouds. As if it didn't want to witness the atrocity happening underneath it. In an isolated abandoned corner of England, a pair was doing their best to fight off a horde of level E's. A boy and a girl who appeared to be of almost the same age. Though the boy looked two or three years older than the girl. Both of them were covered in dirt, blood and sweat. Undoubtedly they were beyond exhausted but it would mean certain death if they stopped fighting. The situation was already very bad. They were cornered and completely surrounded by monsters. There was just no countable number as to how many level E's were there; trying to get to them. Finish them off.

"Amaya watch out!"

The boy yelled out at the girl whose name revealed as Amaya. She looked about seventeen years old. And the boy who desperately tried to block an attack aimed for the girl, and doing so got hurt himself in the process was none other than Zero Kiryu. The girl he just protected had silver colored hair much like Zero's own. Though she did not share the same eye color with him. Instead of soft lavender colored eyes, Amaya had stunning red brown wine colored eyes. But despite the difference in that one feature, anyone could tell that they were related somehow. How exactly?

"DAD!" The girl exclaimed with horror as she watched Zero receiving a severe wound as he took the blow meant for her. Zero groaned out in pain. He felt himself bleeding but couldn't afford to stop fighting. He needed to protect his daughter and save her from this monster's den.

Yes, the girl named Amaya was actually Amaya Kiryu. Daughter of Zero Kiryu and- . Well that was a revelation for another time. Why Zero and his daughter were facing this dangerous situation where death was almost certain and inevitable? Well that was a long story and best suited for another time as well.

"I'm alright." Zero said for the sake of his daughter who already had tears in her eyes. Not because they were losing this fight and there was a huge possibility that both of them would die tonight but because Zero was hurt and there was nothing Amaya could do about it. She didn't care much about her own life but Zero, he was an entirely different matter. Ever since Amaya was little, she couldn't bear to watch Zero hurt in any way; whether physically or emotionally. It was because she loved him so much. Her father was the most precious person in her life. Not that she knew a lot of people but Amaya could do anything for her father.

Zero was the same. He loved his daughter so much. He called her his light. The reason for his existence. And that was no exaggeration. Zero certainly would've ended his life long ago if it wasn't for Amaya. If she hadn't come into his life. The lengths he was willing to go to, to protect Amaya. And why wouldn't he? She was his everything. His entire world.

"No, you are not. Dad we need to get out of here. There's too many of them. We can't keep fighting them off." Amaya said after stabbing the level E who hurt Zero with her twin set of ring daggers; making it turn into dust. Those daggers were deadly for vampires. After all they were anti-vampire weapons. She wished she could deliver the E a more painful death but there was no time or opportunity for that. Amaya tried to look and sound strong despite feeling fear inwardly. Just so that she wouldn't worry her father. But knowing Zero, he would be worrying nevertheless.

"I know" said Zero and he made a decision at once.

"Amaya would you be able to cast a barrier spell and hold them off for a moment? I've a plan to get us out of here." Amaya nodded to Zero, not questioning him at all and started doing what he told her to do. She cast the spell but it kept the E's only at an arm length from them. Zero on the other hand started casting a spell of his own which supposedly would save them from this very dangerous situation.

"Dad hurry up!" Amaya rushed Zero feeling that her spell was getting weaker by the second. It wouldn't be long now before the E's could attack them again. If Amaya wasn't so busy with keeping the monsters away from them, she would've noticed exactly what Zero was doing. She'd have stopped him immediately before it was too late. But alas! It was indeed too late.

"Done!" Amaya heard her father exclaim. She only had the chance to look over her shoulder and look at him before Zero put the spell on her that he had just completed. Upon seeing the spell, Amaya's eyes widened in horror.

"NO DAD! NO! NO!" She immediately screamed and struggled.

Amaya obviously realized it by then that only one of them was getting out of there. Her and her alone. Not her father. He was planning to sacrifice himself to save her. The spell Zero cast was a very powerful one. A spell that would hopefully take his daughter somewhere safe. Somewhere out of these and other monsters' reach. Hopefully. No one had dared to cast this spell before, therefore the end result of the spell was still unknown. Undoubtedly it was a risk. But a risk Zero had no choice but to take since there was no other way to save his precious daughter. It was either this spell or watching his daughter die before his eyes which Zero wasn't gonna allow for as long as there were breaths left in his lungs. Speaking of this spell, it was so powerful that the caster would certainly be sacrificing his or her own life anyway. Also not just anyone could do it. The caster had to be very powerful. But then again, Zero had always been special in one way or another.

"Please dad, please. Don't do this. Don't do this to me." Amaya sobbed hysterically. She was about to lose her father. Zero was about to sacrifice himself for her. How could she not lose her mind? How could she just let it happen? But sadly there was nothing she could do. She was completely helpless here. It was indeed too late.

"I am sorry my shining star; please forgive me. But I can't let anything happen to you." Zero held Amaya's face affectionately and kissed her cheeks and forehead. Tears were rolling down his face as well. Departing from his own flesh and blood was unimaginably painful. His only consolation was that she would be safe from now on.

"I love you. And I am so glad that you came into my life." Zero said with utmost happiness and pride in his eyes. It made Amaya cry harder.

"Dad!" She threw her arms around her father and embraced him tightly. She wasn't gonna let go. No matter what. She wasn't gonna let go of him. She wouldn't lose him. Certainly not like this. No, this was not acceptable in any way.

"Live my dear Amaya. Live from now on. No more hiding. No more running. Live as you were always meant to. That's my last wish. Live Amaya."

Zero kissed the top of her head one last time before activating the spell. Even though Amaya was holding onto him tightly but soon she started feeling as if her father was going far away from her; completely out of her reach. She tried her best to hold on, to not let go but nothing helped. Zero started fading away in her embrace. Or perhaps she started leaving his father behind. To face the death alone. The last thing she saw was her own barrier spell dropping completely and Zero, her father- her most beloved person in this entire world, getting attacked from all around. The horde covered him up in a way as if swallowing him down whole. More tears leaked Amaya's eyes at seeing such horror.

"I'm sorry dad but before I live, I will avenge you."

Was Amaya Kiryu's last thought and promise as she lost her consciousness and let herself be consumed by the darkness.
