A/N: Sorry it took this long, but it's finally finished! Yama Kuran is my OC. AS you may have figured out, she's Kaname's sister. (And yes, she's a pureblood vampire, that's surprisingly always welcome in the Kiriyu household.) Twin sister, actually. Not identical, but pretty close. Enjoy!

I don't own Vampire Knight, as much as I may want to.

"When is Yama going to get here, Mother?" Ichiru Kiriyu asked his mother.

"I'm sure she'll be here any minute now, dear." Mother replied.

"Indeed." Father added. "It's only a few minutes to one o'clock, and she's never been late yet!"

Everyone jumped as Zero Kiriyu cried from the window, "Look! She's here!"

And indeed she was. A silver car was just pulling into the Kiriyu's driveway. Mother and Father smiled as Zero and Ichiru ran out to meet her.

Yama Kuran's stunning figure stepped out from the car and laughed as the twins laughed, overjoyed to see her.

"It's about time!" Father joked. "They've been asking when you'd arrive since lunch!"

Yama smiled and looked down at the two boys. "You two haven't been pestering your parents, have you?" she asked, with a voice like silk, deep and full of love. The boys remained silent, until Zero tugged at Yama's jacket, and told her to come inside, out of the snow.

Yama brushed the snow out of her dark hair and followed them inside.

It was warm in the house, with the fire blazing and crackling merrily in the fireplace. There was food and drink on the table in the living room, with the usual blood tablets next to Yama's glass. Yama smiled to herself. She was the only vampire that was welcome in the Kiriyu household, as she was the one who saved them so long ago.

The Kiriyu's, being vampire hunters for generations, usually despised vampires. But Yama was different to them. She was their savior.

Yama broke a blood tablet into her glass as she sat down at the table. "So," she began. "How have you been holding up?"

As they were all talking merrily, catching up, the snow outside started falling more quickly and heavily. Before they knew it, it was almost a snowstorm!

Yama had noticed this and stood up. She said, "Well, I'd better be going."

"Are you sure you can't stay?" Ichiru asked.

"Yes, little one." Yama ruffled his hair. "If I don't leave now, I might not get home until next year,, with this storm!"

"It was nice seeing you again." Zero smiled at Yama. "Will you come back soon?"

"Of course." She smiled at Zero. She then addressed them both. "Whenever you need me, I'll be here, okay?"

"Okay!" The twins said in unison.

Yama stood up and shook hands with Mother and Father in turn. "You too." She said. "If you ever need anything, just give me a call."

"Thank you, but we're the ones who should say that to you!' Mother replied. "We are forever in your debt."

"Not at all!" Yama walked out of the house, gave one more wave, before getting into the silver car, reversing out of the driveway, and driving off into the night.

Zero's eyes grew wide as he stared at the girl walking out of the Moon dorms. She looked different, but he could sense it was definitely her. Why was she here? Here at Cross Academy? But why now? And where was her real body? So many questions that Zero wanted answered, but he couldn't ask now. He had to ask her privately.

He heard some girls behind him asking each other who the new girl were as well. Yuki gave a start next to him.

"Zero!" she hissed at him.

"What now?" Zero sighed.

"We're supposed to take the new Night class student to the Headmaster's office, remember?" she reminded him. "He wants to see her."

"Fine." Zero walked up to the new girl. "Headmaster Cross would like to see you in his office." He told her simply.

"That's fine." She replied with a voice like bells chiming. "Lead the way."

As the other Night class students made their way to the classrooms, the Day class students mad their way back to the Sun dorms. Zero was sure that the new girl recognised him.

"Hey, Zero?" Yuki muttered as they walked towards the Headmaster's office. "Do you know this girl?"

"I…" Zero began. "I'm not sure."

When they reached the Headmaster's office, they found Keien Cross sitting at his desk, reading some papers by candlelight, supported by the last bit of light the sun could offer. He looked up and smiled slightly as the three walked in.

"Thank you Zero, Yuki." He then addressed the girl with them. "Welcome to Cross Academy, Hana."

"Thank you, Headmaster." The girl replied. "This is a very charming school you run here."

"Why, thank you!" Keien broke into a wide smile. "Did Kaname introduce you to the rest of the Night class?"

"Yes, he did." The girls voice reminded Zero of… her. Her substitute's voice sounded similar.

Keien addressed Zero and Yuki again. "This is Hana Marie, the newest member of the Night class. Hana, these are my two children, Zero and Yuki."

"Children?" Hana laughed. "They don't exactly seem to act like it."

"For the last time, Headmaster," Zero began by slamming his fist on Keien's desk. "I am not your son! Even though I may have obligations to you, I don't remember ever agreeing to become your son!"

"You're certainly one for details, aren't you, Zero?" Keien frowned. "I apologise, Hana, for Zero's rude behaviour."

"Not at all!" Hana replied, smiling. Zero gave a start. He pictured Yama in Hana's face. Is it possible…?

Zero started walking out. "Screw this. I'm going on patrol." He heard Keien sigh loudly, before he slammed the door shut behind him.

He had made it out onto the grounds before he heard a noise behind him. He felt a vampiric presence near him. He was so confused and muddled, he didn't notice it until it was almost right next to him.

He whirled around, pulling the Bloody Rose out as he went, and pointed the barrel of the gun straight at Hana's chest.

A/N: Well, that's that! :) Sorry if that's a bit rushed. I tried, anyway. Can anyone guess who "her" is? Hope you enjoyed it, R&R please! Thanks :)
