Dark Fairy Tale

By LisaAckerman

Chapter One

"No, no, no, it can't be-"

Her voice filled with the quiet forest, muttering the words without ceasing. Her tears blurred her vision, but that not slow her down, her hands wiped it roughly. Her breathing was rapid, her lungs hurt with every breath she took. Sweat beaded on her forehead, mixed with dirt and blood. Her leg muscles ached, but she forced them to keep moving forward. She didn't know how long she had been running, the thing that mattered was to escape from them, stay away from that monsters.


Kaien's heart filled with happiness, the former hunter had long wanted to have a family and suddenly had two daughters make his feelings cannot be described how happy he was at the moment. When he was still a hunter, he was afraid that his profession as a hunter would harm his family, given his enemies who would target him for revenge or just to kill him.

Kaien filled his table with his homemade breakfast, the clock still pointed at seven thirty in the morning, there was still time for the girls to wake up. He put two glasses of milk when he felt the stare behind his head, he turned slightly. It's one of the girls. The one with pink hair and green hair who was now peeking through the door. She stared intently at him.

The girl hid her body quickly when he smiled at her.

'Cu-cute!' he thought.

Kaien cleared his throat, smile still in place.

"Are you hungry, Sakura-chan?" he said, "it's okay, you can come here."

Sakura pulled the door wider and walked to one of the chairs, her stomach growled at the sight of the food, she was blushing as she touched her stomach. Sakura on the chair and said, "Thank you."

Kaien grinned at her, he then excused himself to fetch Yuki. Yuki joined them to have breakfast.

Weeks have passed since Sakura and Yuki lived together with Kaien, the man waving papers around as he heading toward the girls, a big smile on his face. "Sakura, Yuki, I had filled the papers to legally adopted both of you," he said happily. Sakura looked at him while Yuki still stared out of the window.

"Adopt?" Sakura asked.

"From today, I will be your father. Now, try calling me 'Otou-san'" he put his hands behind his ears.

"…Otou-san" Sakura said.

Tears bursting out of Kaien's eyes. "Oh, Sakura-chan, you make me happy!" a huge grin plastered on his funnily tears stained face. "But, weeks have passed and Yuki still hasn't said a word to me."

Tears pouring from his eyes, "what should I do…?"

Sakura looked at Yuki, the girl really never speak to Kaien.

Sakura flipped the overly big book's page in her lap, opened it to the page she had left off before. She had been reading a few of Kaien's books after she read the kids book that their adopted father gave to them. Apparently, she found her passion for reading, be it was fairy tale or scientific books. Kaien, who saw it, began to call her a bookworm.

She also searched about a vampire, she even secretly entered the kaien's private room. Though she had not found much, just a small passage, talked about whom they were or how dangerous a vampire can be.

Suddenly, Sakura heard a laugh from downstairs. She marked her book before she put it down, got out of her bed and made her way to the door, her hand gripped the handle not opened it. She heard Kaien's muffled voice and footsteps from the stairs toward her door.

He knocked her door. Sakura twisted her door's handle and opened it, she tilted her head to looked up at Kaien through the small opening.

The light brown haired man smiled at her, "can you come out, Sakura-chan? Kaname-kun came to see you, he's in the living room with Yuki right now," he said.

Sakura hesitated before she slowly made her way down the stairs and into the living room. She paused a second time before she walked over to Kaname and Yuki, she stopped in front of the older boy and greeted, "g-good evening." She stuttered.

Kaname returned her greeting, "good evening, Sakura."

"How are you today?" he asked.

"I'm well." She smiled then turned to sit on the sofa beside Yuki. "It was nice of you to visit us," she said softly," I hope it's not troubling you."

Kaname let out a soft hum, "I don't mind."

He raised his hand to caress her head and smiled softly at her.

Today was a special day, the day where Kaname rescued both Sakura and Yuki that night from a vampire. Kaien had dressed them in frilly dresses with jackets, gloves, and boots. It's also marked for one year after they lived with the man.

"Yuki, you should wait inside. It's cold outside." Kaien called out to the brown haired girl.

He noticed that between the two of the girls, Yuki was the enthusiast one to wait for the pureblood male to come, she even waiting outside the house. Sakura preferred to stand next to him when he asked the girl, she just said she was not fond of cold.

Kaien heard Yuki gasped. He can saw a form heading toward them, the brown haired girl ran to hug the approaching figure. The girl beside him holding his hand to pull him closer to Kaname and Yuki.

"Kaname-sama!" Yuki shouted happily.

"Kaname-sama?" Kaname looked down at her. Yuki nodded, "it's the day you saved us one year ago." She stated.

His garnet eyes shifted to Sakura who approaching them, she took off her hand from Kaien then ran toward him to hold his hand. "Congratulation Kaname-sama!" the pink haired girl grinned at him.

Kaname looked at them with wide eyes before his face softened, "that's wrong. Today is the day I congratulate both of you." He said.

He pulled them into his arms, "but I thank you both anyway." Sakura and Yuki smiled at him.

Dark Fairy Tale

Sakura and Yuki were in a classroom with other students like them, they were sat beside each other in front of the teacher's desk. Kaien had decided to enroll them in elementary school years ago, he had attended them in a private school that was still around the town, so the ex-hunter did not have to worry about their safety outside his house.

Plus, Sakura really liked the school's uniform, it's consisted of a black sailor uniform with white collar and white tie, the skirts and pants were black, and with black lining pattern in the sleeves and the bottom wear. The school also gave the students a white hat.

Sakura put her hands on the desk her chin rested on her palm, they were still waiting for their teacher to show up.

"Um…"

Sakura glanced at the student beside her. Her brows rose with the unfamiliar face. "Hm?"

"Um, hello, I'm a new student, what is your name?"

It was a girl. She was a cute, with light brown hair and blue eyes, her hair was braided into two low pigtails and she has clips in her hair. She also wore glasses. So she was a new student, which was the reason why Sakura never saw her.

Sakura turned her head.

"Sakura Cross, you can call me Sakura," she offered her hand to the new girl, "and you?" she asked back.

"It's Nadeshiko Shindou," Nadeshiko took her hand, "and you can call me Nadeshiko, Sakura-chan." Sakura grinned at the girl.

Sakura walked around the school backyard, Yuki was playing with other students and her new friend Nadeshiko have her own business to finish, so the pink haired girl decided to resume her reading that she left off last night. The backyard looked deserted, not that the place wasn't deserted before. It just that the other kids preferred to play in the school field, also they were afraid to go to this place.

Her eyes spotted her usual place to read, a cozy place under the big tree, shaded by its shadow, near the bush so the other student would not bother her if they happened to look for her. Her feet her to there, she put her book in her lap as she leaned to the tree.

Sakura yawned, it has been a few minutes but she felt tired already. Sakura sighed as she closed her book loudly, she leaned her head and closing her eyes. Her mind slowly drifted to sleep, she will just take a nap for a few minutes.

Thump!

Sakura snapped out of her sleep, her head turned around to locate the sound. Her green eyes narrowed at the bust beside her, not far from her. Sakura stood up, her book placed in front of her, both hands gripped the edge tightly. She walked quietly as she can, Sakura stopped.

'What if it was a vampire like that night?' she thought.

But if it happened to be a vampire, she must have been sucked dry by those monsters. Sakura shook her head wildly. What a bad thought.

Sakura peered behind the bush and her eyes widened at the sight in front of her.


Nadeshiko Shindou was a character from vampire knight, not an OC. She was the one that Zero save when she tried to climb the wall to give her chocolate.
