A couple of hours had passed. Right away the three of us went on patrol. It is what we did as "Guardians of Cross Academy." I just thought of this as another chore for knowing the secret of the night class.
I was alone. The three of us split up to make our rounds faster. We each had a weapon to protect ourselves. Yuki's was a rod called Artimus. Zero's was a gun called 'Bloody Rose'. Mine was a pure silver sword. I gave it the name Patch. It was the only name that I could think of. Patch works on both vampires and humans. There is a difference when being faced against vampires. The blade is equipped with a type of silver that wounds them. It's like they are burning from the inside. Patch was safely tucked away under my skirt.
I walked around the main area of the school to only find it abandoned as usual. I didn't expect anyone to try and peak at the Night class tonight. The sky above me was a dark shade of black. It was almost darker than black. The only thing that lit the night was a bright crescent moon. Everything around me seemed peaceful. I liked it this way.
A sound of a stick break nearby took me out of my thoughts. I turned around to find Hanabusa Aido with a guy with fiery orange hair. The guy looked bored.
"Hanabusa, shouldn't you be in class?" I asked. I pulled out Patch and faced the blade toward Aido. He smiled one of the smiles that always got the girls riled up.
"I don't want to be in class" He said in a playful tone. I glared at Aido. In a dark tone I ordered him to go back to class. He refused and grabbed the blade of Patch. He pulled the sword back, cutting his hand in the process. I was pulled along with it.
Aido grabbed my wrist and pinned them against the tree. Patch dropped from my hands and clattered on the ground. Now I was unarmed. My back was against the tree. I tried to break free of his grip, but his grip was too strong. Even with that, I kept trying to break free.
Aido licked my neck. My body responded by sending a chill down my spine. I didn't plan on getting bit anytime soon, and I didn't plan on it being today. Right as Aido was about to pierce me when a shot was fired through the air. The sound of it rung in my ears. Aido's grip was broken, leaving me to run away from him. I didn't get that far. Someone had already pulled me away from him. I didn't know who it was at first. I looked up to see Zero. He had shot the bullet. Yuki was beside him with Artemis. The bullet didn't hit Aido. It hit right next to where my head was. My expression was shocked as everything processed. Kaname appeared just then.
"Aido." Kaname's tone showed that he was annoyed. Aido seemed scared and took a few steps back. I walked over to Hanabusa to grab my sword. Before I walked back, a thought popped in my head. When I stood up I gabbed Hanabusa in the ribs with my elbow hard. He grunted as I walked away from him with a smile on my face. I stopped by Yuki and Zero.
"Thank you. Zero, Yuki." My thanks were sincere. Yuki thanked me back while Zero just stared at me. I turned back to face Kaname and said my thanks. Kaname smiled and took Hanabusa and the orange haired guy. Kaname was scolding them while they were walking away.
I began to walk away to finish my job but Yuki's hand stopped me.
"Wait Sakura! Are you really all right?" I looked at her and smiled.
"Don't worry, I'm fine." I walked away from them both and headed to the headmaster's office. There was something that I needed to talk to him about.
When I got to the headmaster's office I knocked on the door. There was a muffled voice that sounded like the headmasters. I walked in to see him at his desk.
"I would like to end my shift for today." I asked. He showed a smile and nodded in agreement. I turned around walked out and headed to my room. It took me about five minutes to get there. Not needing to shower or change, I flopped on my bed and fell into dream that was bound to come true.
