Chapter 1

Roses

Zero glanced at the trees as the wind made the leafs move in a lazily dance, the sun was setting far away making the temperature slowly drop, not that Zero noticed.

Right now he was concentrating on not loosing himself to the lust for blood, eyes closed, his back leaning against a tree. Breathing in the fresh ai-.

"Zero my lovely son!"

Interrupted in his moment of peace Zero opened his eyes to see the Chairman running towards him creating a big shadow over his body as Kaien made a brave attempt to jump him. Smoothly Zero stepped aside in the last second making Kaien crash into the tree he had been leaning against, face first.

The impact didn't seemed to affect the older man as he just stood up and dusted of his clothes then arranged his broken glasses.

"What do you want Cross?"

"Why can't you call me dad?" Kaien pouted looking slightly outraged.

Zero grunted in answer, his left hand doing a quick sweep over his hair removing some irritating hair strands that had the tendency of covering his eyes. 'tch, I need to cut it soon, it's growing to damn fast.'

Something pointy poked him in the ribs, Zero look at Kaien who held a rectangular box in his hand, it was wrapped in silver blue paper with a grass green card taped to it. 'Where did he hide that?'

Kaien poked him again with a corner. "It's for you" He said with a wide smile on his lips, not commenting on Zeros skin being sickening white or the that his son's body was shaking ever so slightly.

"What... why?"

Kaien's smile faltered for a second, but he didn't let Zero see it. "It's your birthday Zero. Happy birthday son!"

Zero's mouth slackened, tired eyes widening. 'My birthday? I had totally forgotten...' He carefully took the nicely wrapped package and prayed silently that it wouldn't be the same poisoning handmade cookies like last year.

Zero started to tear at the paper but was quickly stopped by a hand.

"Open it later tonight in your room. Alright?"

Kaien's words were soft but also rather... serious? Kaien = Serious, something just had to be wrong.

"Alright..." Zero answered his body tense.

Cross smiled brightly before giving his son a spine breaking hug. One hand supporting his head bringing Zero close and past his vision of seeing Kaien's sad smile.

Distracted by his adopted father Zero missed the two vampire hiding behind some trees further away, their eyes following every movement and hearing everything that had been said.

"Well?" A strong voice came from the dark figure standing by a large window. His eyes looking directly at where Zero had been standing just a while ago.

"It's his birthday today, but-" The man with soft orange hair interrupted his blond cousin.

"He seems to be depressed my lord. By the reaction given he didn't know that it's his birthday today and... he looked rather exhausted with dark shades under his eyes. His skin to pale even for a vampire."

"Hmm" Was the only answer they archived. They turned to leave but were briefly stopped by Kaname's voice.

"I want you two to watch him but be carefully and be very discreet about it. Do not touch him. Do you understand, Aido, Kain?" His words dripping with a harsh promise of punishment if they failed.

"Yes my lord" They answered in union and left, carefully closing the door after themselves.

Zero was on his way to his bedroom, box securely under his arm, cold sweat was running down his forehead. It took awhile before he noticed a lonely figure blocking his way, standing just some meters away from him.

'Yuuki...'

Dark eyes looked his way, a smirk following. "Hello dear Zero." She greeted him.

He didn't answer or acknowledge her, he intended to walk past but she grabbed his arm.

"You know Zero... you are all alone now. No-"

"Shut up" he whispered out, not very loud but she heard him and laughed.

"Why are you denying the truth?" She taunted. "I no longer want you, I'm above you. The chairman , poor him, he also doesn't want you anymore but he is your "father" after all, he can't just get rid of you."

Her tone turned serious. "You are a burden Zero, to everyone around you, a monster. We all know that you are turning into a disgusting level-E... Leave before I kill you." Yuuki released her hard grip on his arm and walked away with her head held up high, proud of herself.

Zero's felt numb as he was left alone in the dark hallway hands shaking, he was tired and starving.

Yuukis words, he didn't want to believe them but everything she said, he knew it was the painful truth.

He had lost a part of Yuuki when she turned into a vampire at her 18 birthday, only 5 weeks ago. It was a real shock but he was going to deal with it, after all, it was his beloved sister. Or so he thought until he found out that Yuuki and Kaname were siblings... it disgusted him at first that Yuuki still wanted to be with Kaname, to marry him and have children but after some time alone he knew that if his sister was happy then that was all that counted. Zero had hoped they could mend their relationship from there but when her attitude also changed and the true Yuuki he knew disappeared, all his hope were lost.

She started taunting everyone she deemed to be below her and even hurting other students that made her upset.

What Zero didn't understand was why Kaien didn't do anything or why Kaname didn't lift a single finger in protest of her behavior. But then again why would Zero expect anything from that bastard...

Rushing to his room Zero sat down on his bed, with cold hands he unwrapped the box and lifted the lid. The bright green card falling unnoticed to the ground, forgotten.

Zero took in a shaking breath then laughed brokenly. 'Was this some kind of sign?'

Putting on a glove Zero lifted with his thumb and point finger a special designed bullet, it was made out of pure silver with a beautiful cross and single rose crafted onto it's side, it would expand when hitting it's target and silver would pour out. It was a lovely match to his Bloody rose.

Dropping the bullet down into the box he looked at the next item. Zero carefully lifted a locket made out of pure white gold. The design on the outside were beautiful, two roses tangled into each other with a wing on each side, the frame around were thrones with roses that had yet to bloom.

Zero clicked it opened, he couldn't stop the tears from falling. On the left side was a small picture of his mother and father, his mother holding two infants in each arm, both of his parents were smiling proudly.

The picture to the right showed a young Zero with a emotionless face, his arms crossed. He could barely see Yuuki that were holding a bit of his lower shirt in her hand smiling or Kain that was behind them both with the biggest grin of all, a dark stain left both of them out of the picture.

Zero snapped it close then laid down, clutching the locked close to his damaged heart, trying to get some needed sleep.

Dull eyes opened as morning was creeping closer, it was still dark outside but Zero pushed himself up from the bed and went over to the dark brown wardrobe standing in a corner, he pulled out his favorite gun.

Zero would make his beloved ones happy by freeing them of their burden.

Taking Bloody rose and putting the gun in it's holster around his hip, with the special bullet inside he walked out of his room. The locket hanging around his neck.

He had one place to visit before he died.

There you have it! I wanted at first to rewrite every single chapter and post them all at ones but I'm still not finished with all of them and there are some things I still need to figure out, but it shouldn't take long until more chapters will be posted! (Depends on how much of my attention school wants)

This chapter was rather short but the next one will be longer! (I hope) ;)

Hope you liked this new beginning! / Evation
