Summary: A past forgotten, hands stained in blood... That is what the life for one lone vampire, Ame Hoshi, is. She has no memories of her life before she woke to find the chairman of Cross Academy taking care of her, and giving her the name she goes by. But with each night she is haunted by a strange melody that she feels is familiar, yet for some reason she cannot figure out why it is. But once she meets one who knows the truth, things are set into motion and she will have to chose which path she will take.

Chapter One

It had been a few days since classes had started and that song haunted my dreams even more than ever. I could no longer remember where I had heard it from, in fact there was much I no longer remembered. It was almost like my life had began when I had been left here, but why was that? Sure I was one of the night class, a vampire, but that was no reason in my eyes to no longer remember anything about myself. Heck I was not even sure if Ame Hoshi was my real name or not!

I was brought out of my thoughts due to a knock on the door as I sat up. "Come in…" I said, wondering who could be calling on me right now. All because I was the odd girl out of the class who always distanced myself, even from the Lord Pureblood, but I was not sure why…

I was brought from those thoughts as the door opened, and low and behold entered the pure blood. He had spiked dark hair that seemed to be perfectly in place about his gentle face, something that made my face flush by just looking at him, so I quickly lowered my gaze and remained silent.

"Why aren't you at orientation with everyone else?" he asked in a gentle tone, something that surprised me and my ice cold eyes shot up to look at him from behind the long white hair about my face.

"Because I am not sure I will even stay…" I said. Mainly because everyone else here was of noble decent, while my lineage was unknown so I was an outcast in that regard along with countless other things. "Besides, why aren't you at the orientation?" I asked fighting back the urge to use a sarcastic tone toward him because I knew if word got around that I even only slightly disrespected the pure blood that the rest of the class would be out for my head.

"Why wouldn't you?" he asked as he helped himself to sit at my desk that was right beside my bed as he gave me a gentle smile, as I found it odd that I was not feeling obligated to be respectful or even answer him all because of when a low vampire was faced with a pureblood they had no choice but to do as they said or be obedient, maybe that was yet another thing wrong with me.

"I don't fit in here." I said simply, I didn't think there was any reason to tell this pure blood anything about how I remembered nothing of my life before being enrolled here, well basically found by the chairman. Mainly because my first memory was of me waking in the chairman's private home on campus with him tending to me saying that he was going to name me 'Ame Hoshi' because it had been raining when he had found me yet the stars had been shinning bright.

"Have you tried to fit in?" the pure bloods soft voice interrupted my thoughts.

I shrugged my shoulders in response to his question. Sure I had at first due to the chairman insisting I try to fit in here, but I got the feeling something was being hidden from me, a feeling I didn't like. "What would it matter?" I asked in a dejected tone as I looked down, only to see the pure bloods hand before it gently caught my chin and made me look up at him.

"Why wouldn't it?" he asked as I could tell he was trying to use his power as a pure blood to keep me in conversation, but why?

I turned my head to the side freeing my chin from the pure bloods hand. "I would rather not talk about it…" I said as I stood and walked out of my room leaving the pure blood there. I walked out of the dorm and toward the grounds of the academy feeling I was being watched, figuring it was one of the guardians since it was common for them to do so to be sure the peace was kept between the two classes. I kept walking until I got to a fountain and stood before it and reached out a pale hand to rest in the stream of water while I thought for a while on what was going on with why I could not remember anything.

"Ah! Ame-chan!" an overly cheerful tone said as I sighed, knowing without looking that it was the chair man of the academy. "Why are you not with the rest of your class at the orientation?" he asked as he walked up beside me wearing his usual attire of tan with a matching shawl over his arms that he then removed and placed over mine.

I closed my eyes resisting the urge to hit him upside the head as I went to slide out of it but he put his hands on my shoulders. "What is it?" I asked as I let my arms fall to my sides defeated for now.

"We need to talk." Was all he said but the cheerful tone of his voice was gone as he turned and led me, since he had left one arm draped across my shoulders. He didn't speak again until we were in his private home where he led me into what seemed to be like a secondary office and told me to sit down as he sat across from me.

"What is this about? Did that pure blood rat me out about not wishing to stay here?" I asked as his eyes narrowed. "What?" I asked wondering what the deal was, sure I was disrespectful to the dorm president, and wasn't one of his brainless followers, but so what!

"It is about that and other things." He said in a calm tone as he removed his glasses while he leaned back and started to clean them. "It is for the best that you stay here." He said as I gave him a look that said I didn't care, something that made him close his eyes and shake his head at me. "Trust me. It is safer for you to be here." He said as I stood, the shawl falling from my thin shoulders that were covered by my white uniform making me as a night class student.

"How is that?" I asked grasping the front of the desk as I glared at him, my fangs bared. "I don't have any memory before waking in this very room with you standing over me!" I growled as the desk started to splinter under my fingers. "Why do you act like you need to protect me?" I demanded. "Is it because of hunters?" I asked my voice rising with every word as the glass in the window behind the chair man started to crack.

"Ame, you need to calm down." He said as the temperature had started to drop, but I didn't listen. I turned on my heel and started to leave only to find the door locked, and that it shocked me when I tried to force it. "A charm, because I knew this would go this way." He said as I looked back at him answering my unasked question. "If you are so desperate for answers, you will become lost." He said in a worried tone.

"I don't need anyone's concern." I said in a cold tone as I glared at him. "Now let me leave!" I said with the intention to leave the academy the second he opened the door. "I don't belong here!" I said as the chairman stood and walked around the desk to me and stood before me only to pull me to his chest and hold me there as I started to struggle but he held me tightly to his chest.

"You say you don't belong here? Where else will you go?" he asked, striking a nerve with me, because I knew all to well I had no home to return to. I tried to pull back more but he only tightened his grip. "You are still healing from what ever happened to you before." He said as I growled in warning for him to release me because something about how he was holding me brought some shadows to my mind of a distant time. "If you wish to gain answers, go to the fountain tomorrow night, same time I met you there, and one with the answers you seek will be there…" the chairman said as he still held me and I only nodded before he released me and allowed me to leave.
