Chapter 1
listen to the wind, let your mind spin.
It seemed to be a quiet and peaceful night, until Rima noticed two Day Class girls sitting by the garden.
"Can you walk?" one girl with blonde hair asked another girl with brown hair.
"Y-yeah, barely…" the girl answered. "It hurts, though."
Rima sighed, seeing Blondie and her friend breaking curfew. She leaps gracefully from the tree she had been sitting on.
"You two!" she demanded, trying to be fierce yet she was just tired. "What are you names and class numbers?"
The two girls blinked. "We just wanted to take some photos of the Night Class. Just a –"
"Crap, you're bleeding!" Rima groaned. "This isn't good… quick, get back to your dorm."
"Wha…?"
"Just do it!"
A sudden noise jerked Rima to attention. She turned around, extending her Artemis Rod from behind her skirt.
"Who's there?" she asked.
"Scary. The headmaster trained you well."
The amber-haired, tall, tan Akatsuki Kain and daydream blonde-haired, blue-eyed flirt Hanabusa Aidou stood in front of her.
"Scary. The headmaster trained you well."
'Akatsuki Kain and Hanabusa Aidou!' the girls gasped and thought to themselves. Forget photos of the night class; they were seeing two of the star students up close!
"Oh, dear. We only came to look because we smelt blood… how mean of you, Rima."
Rima frowned at Aidou.
"Aah, such a lovely smell..."
"Aidou, if you so much as try to touch either of these girls, I swear I'll kill you," she threatened firmly.
Aidou ignored her and smiled. "Did you fall?"
"Eh…?"
"You see, they lovely smell… is your blood, Rima."
Aidou took Rima's hand by her wrist. She realised, then, that the palm of her hand was bleeding, more than likely from when she had jumped off the tree.
"Aidou!" Rima said angrily as she tried to pull away.
"Mmm…" the vampire smiled. "I'm very tempted…"
"Is he… a vampire?" Blondie gasped.
The injured girl shook her head. "He can't be! They don't exist!"
"Aidou, you idiot! Don't you dare…!"
She stopped. He licked he hand as his fangs softly pierced her skin.
Aidou looked up with a cheeky, half-satisfied expression. "I want more… May I partake from you neck?"
"No! Stop it, you can't!" Rima refused.
"Drinking blood on campus is forbidden."
Takuma was there. A bright smile lit up his face. Ugh, Rima thought. He's even weaker than me.
"Rima, are you okay?"
"I'm fine," she murmured dully.
"So, vampires… you should know that you can't drink blood on campus. It's stupid to even show your true selves… especially around other students. So, don't even consider it."
"Takuma!" Rima knew that the expression on his face wouldn't last long. He always tried to keep smiling, no matter what. She also knew that he had a strong dislike towards vampires.
He extended the Bloody Rose gun from inside his jacket. The grin became an instant frown. Yes, he was going to do it. He always got angry around vampires, especially when they had blood dripping from their obscene fangs.
"Would you please put that gun away? It is a great threat to us," Senri Shiki leaned against a tree and yawned. His expression was disinterested in that typical, Trademark Senri-style.
"President Shiki…" Aidou began with – was it fear? – in his voice.
"I'll take care of this idiot…" he turned to Akatsuki. "Kain, you should have stopped Aidou, but you didn't… making you equally responsible.
"Wha?" Kain seemed ultimately shocked.
Senri ignored this. "Rima… sorry if this… brought up any bad memories," Shiki said quietly, his apology reaching Rima's ears only.
Rima shrugged. "It was noyhing, really… just Aidou being an idiot…" she answered, despite her hammering heart.

"Hmph… ten days suspension… still, Rima's blood was worth it. Blood tablets just don't cut it," Aidou told Kain as he sat on the lounge. "I couldn't rist her blood and I just…"
Suddenly, Senri Shiki appeared in front of Aidou. He didn't see this, though. All he saw was a hand extend and slap him across the face.
"Just?" Shiki echoed.
"S-sorry," Aidou apologises quickly.
"Rima is not your toy, Aidou. It's time to grow up."
Zero Kiryu watched in the shadows. He was the vice president of Moon Dorm and Night Class. He watched, bemused. He always found it entertaining that Shiki acted differently when things involved Rima.
The silver-haired aristocrat gave a tiny, tiny smile.
He liked watching it.

A/N: I know they were all extremely OOC, except for Kain and Aidou. But nevertheless, I hoped you liked and I will be back next week with characters that are themselves…
I forgot to mention last time… yes, Zero WILL be replacing Ichijo.
