Chapter 2: Silver Sorrow

It had been 6 years since Kaname-sama had brought me to Kaien. At times I noticed that he would leave for long periods of time but I never knew why. Whenever I asked why he would always just say he was going to do some business and would not say anymore. Today was another one of those days, I sat at my usual place In front of the window waiting for him to return.

I heard the doorbell ring and I went to answer it. I opened the door and there stood Kaien but he was not alone there was someone else with him, a boy with silver hair.

"Yuki, this is Zero Kiryu, his parents were killed by a bad vampire. Can you take care of him while I go talk with the police?" He stated with much dread in his tone.

I was shocked beyond words and could only nod. I led the boy, Zero to the bathroom where I had already prepared a bath. I took off the large trench coat that was covering his body. What caught my eye as soon as the garment came off was the huge blood stain on his neck.

I grabbed a towel and dipped it in the water but before doing anything I asked, "Can I clean it off?" I asked quietly but got no answer so I proceeded anyway. I got no protests from him so I figured it was okay. Once the blood was all gone I sighed in relief when I saw he had not been bitten.

I left him alone for some privacy, but after I exited the bathroom his hand grabbed me. I guess he did not want to be alone so I sat down next to the door and waited for him to finish. He came out after a while and I saw he was wearing the clothes I had left him. I smiled and led him to the guest room that would now be his room.

Days past and I did not see much of Zero and one night I was passing his room so I decided to check on him. Cautiously I opened the door and scanned the room. I found him sitting in the corner of the room. He was scratching his neck so hard that he had drawn blood.

I grabbed his hand and asked, "Why? Why did you hurt yourself Zero-kun?" Tears been blurring my vision.

"I can still feel it. That woman's touch on my neck and if feels repulsive." He replied quietly.

"That does not mean you should hurt yourself! I was also alone in this world before I came here. I have no memory of my past and I felt alone like you do now. So I will become Zero-kun's friend and help you so I'm begging you, please don't do this again." I begged and he brought his hand that I had been holding away from his neck.

From then on Zero and I became inseparable. We spent a lot of time to gather and we always played together. We never spoke of that night again but true to his word Zero never hurt himself ever again.

It had been a while since Kaname-sama visited us and when Kaien informed me he would be visiting I was really excited. We were having dinner when the doorbell bell rang knowing who it was I ran to open it.

"Kaname-sama!" I exclaimed as I pulled him into the house. "Come in, I want you to meet my new friend." I said as I pulled him to the dining room.

"It is good to see you Yuki." He said as he cupped my cheek with his hand. I held that hand with my own just to feel it's warmth.

"Kaname-sama." I mumbled with pure joy that I had gotten to see him after so long.

"I have been told of you skill but I wanted you to see him for yourself." Kaien said and both Kaname-sama and I turned to face Zero.

Zero's eyes were clouded with hate and sorrow, they were the same eyes that he had the first day he came here. He slowly picked up a knife that was one the table and I knew something was wrong.

A flash came to me showing Zero stabbing Kaname-sama. I had never told anyone about the flashes not even Kaname-sama. The flashes showed something that was going to happen before it happened. The flash ended in seconds and I saw Zero was ready to strike so as soon as he started moving I jumped in front of Kaname-sama.

"Die vampire!" He shouted while he attacked.

I on the other hand now in front of Kaname-sama shouted, "Stop it Zero!" He stopped an inch away from piercing my skin.

"Get out of the way Yuki! He is not what you think he is. He is a vampire like that woman!"

"That woman? Ahh, you must be Zero Kiryu. Well I am not that woman and I have no intention of being killed by you." Kaname-sama said in a tone laced with venom.

"Kaname-kun is right Kiryu-kun, he is not that woman and be at ease he will not harm you." Kaien reassured.

Zero said nothing and stormed out of the dining room. After Kaname-sama left I went to Zero's room and opened the door. I found him on the bed. I went over to him and he looked up at me and glared.

"Zero are you okay?" I asked while reaching out to touch him.

He swatted my hand away and yelled, "Don't touch me with the hands you used to touch him!"

However the impact from the swat was harder than I thought and I tumbled off the bed as a result and hit the nearby mirror as a result, shattering it in the process.

I suddenly felt very dizzy and touched the back of my head with my had and felt something wet and warm on my hand. I looked at my hand and saw that there was blood on it. I began feeling faint as another flash came to me and I blacked out.

When I opened my eyes I was in an unfamiliar house. The house was eerily quiet so I decided to explore a bit. I found a room that had been completely destroyed. On the ground was a trail of blood, I followed it and found something that would haunt me for the rest of my life. The walls of the room were painted in blood. On the ground in front of me were two dead bodies. In the center of the room was a woman in a bloodstained kimono. The woman had hair that was as white as snow.

"You must hate me now right? Despise me with your very being. That is good, good, but child this is your parents punishment for taking him away from me. Doing this was my privilege as a Pureblood. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned as the humans say." She chuckled and got up, I saw the one she had been talking to was a boy, a boy with silver hair, Zero. I noticed that he was unconscious but while my attention was on Zero I did not notice someone come from behind me.

"Shizuka-sama, we must leave the hunters will be here any moment." The person, whose face I had yet to see, warned.

"Very well, let us depart. I have already finished my business here." The woman walked right through me and exited the room. I turned to see who the other person was but saw nothing. The house had dissolved in a pitch blackness and then everything faded into nothingness.

I woke up once more but this time in my own bed. I looked around and saw that I was alone. It was night time and by the looks of it, it was pretty late. I got up from the bed to see where Zero and Kaine were but I heard the door open. I went downstairs to see that Zero and Kaien were just now coming home.

"Oh, Yuki you're awake." Kaien stated once he noticed me.

I was not listening since my attention was now on the image on Zero's neck.

"What is that?" I asked pointing to the mark.

"It's a tattoo you idiot." Zero insulted.

I stuck my tongue out at him, a childish thing to do I know but I am a child. He ignored me and retreated to his room. Kaien saying he had to do some paperwork went to his office to burn the midnight oil. He told me to eat something since I had apparently been sleeping since the other night. I heard the door open once more and looked to see Kaname-sama had also come.

"Kaname-sama!" I exclaimed as I went over to hug him.

"Hello Yuki, what are you doing up?" He asked.

"Umm, I have been asleep for a while and I just got up. Kaien told me to eat something since I skipped meals." I explained, bending the truth a little.

"I see," he says still not fully convinced.

"Kaname-sama did you know, Zero and Kaien are hiding something from me. Zero came home today with a tattoo on his neck, why do you think Zero got a tattoo?" I asked.

Kaname-sama frowned, "I never thought there would be a day where Yuki would talk about other boys, how unfair." He said confusing me, was he mad? At what?

Ignoring my confusion he left me in the hall so that he could go speak with Kaien. The next night Kaname-sama also came to visit and both Zero and I were called down.

"What is he doing here?" Zero asked while pointing at Kaname-sama.

"Zero, Yuki, I have something I want to tell you. Kaname-kun here has been helping me over the past years to establish a night class." He began.

"For the Academy?" I asked.

"Yes but all of the night class students will be different from the day class, all of the night class students are going to be vampires." He explained.

Zero who looked angry and horrified at the revelation spoke up, "You are going to let those things in? Do you have any idea of how many years of bloodshed have been covered up? How many lives have been lost because of them?"

"I am well aware Kiryu-kun but I want to put an end to that. Kaname-kun will also be attending to keep the other students in line. That however is not enough that is why I need you two my beloved children to act as guardians and protect the night class' secret. What do you say?" He concluded.

"I can do it." I replied, if Kaname-sama was going to attend school here then I would get to see him more often.

"You're crazy if you thought I would ever agree to do this old man." Zero said before storming off.

I started to go after him but Kaien stopped me, "Let him cool off Yuki." I nodded and sat back down to listen as he explained what it meant to be a guardian.

At that time I felt that Zero would at some point come around; my naive self already forgetting what I had seen in my flash.
