Chapter one: unexpected meeting

~Normal POV~

They sat together by the clearing, chatting and enjoying the afternoon when they smelled it. They stood at once and after a look around five of them went for the hunt. Their prey was unknown for them this time, but they would find out soon enough. The one who dared to trespass their territory would know about its wrongdoing. Running like the wind they were standing before him in less than two minutes. He was strong. They knew that much, but together he wouldn't stand a chance against them.

'He wouldn't stand a chance against us'. She tried to deny it as best she could, but … in the end she still knew him. Recognizing him straight away. Even through the years had had their effect on him, puberty probably being the cause of it mostly. That and the mental scares, she could clearly see. But the silver hair and enchanting lavender eyes were still a dead giveaway. It was Zero.

'Zero'. Before she knew she was standing before him. Her back facing him and her teeth beard. She growled towards them. The ones who she thought as a family. "What are you doing ?!" "Meg, he's ore prey!" "He is a trespasser !" "Meg get back here NOW !"

~Meg's POV~

"NO ! He's my brother ! You can't hurt him !"

"I thought you said you didn't have any family?" I could hear one of them say but I didn't pay any mind to them. My focus was on my leader. We stared towards each other. I never went against him before, but now that I did, I couldn't back down anymore. So I stood my ground.

"Meg, he's a trespasser. We can't let him go."

"Maybe, but he didn't treat any of us. Let him go."

He growled. "He's an E, Meg. He's a treat to all of us. He won't live long anymore anyway."And took a step towards us. The rest following his assemble.

"He is not an E !" I growled back. Looking around the group I knew by instinct that together Zero and I could have them. It would not be easy, but together I was sure we could overpower them long enough to get away.

Taking a step forward, they took the hint. I was ready to fight.

My leader was a stubborn man and seeing the look he give me, he wasn't pleased. Undermining a commend of your leader had a high price to it. Authority is important. Without a leader, a pack isn't centered. It will fall apart eventual. So by undermining the leader you put the whole pack at risk. Not that I was rational enough to think of that right now. I was acting on pure instinct without realization or thoughts of the consequences.

I kept my guard up as they retreated, but before the leader went into the tree lines, he looked back at me. "Your no longer welcome in our pack." Than they were gone. I took a moment to be sure they were out of earshot. The moment I was sure, I turned around to glared at my brother.

"YOU IDIOT ! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE ?! HAVE YOU JUST GONE MAD GONING IN TO OURE TERRITORY LIKE THAT ! AND WHY DIDN'T YOU DO ANYTHING ?! THEY TREATED YOUR LIFE AND YOU WEREN'T DOIN ANYTHING AT ALL ! "

"I WENT AGAINST MY PACK FOR YOU ! …."

Realizing what I just shouted, moreover what I have just done. Everything came crashing down on me. I could feel my eyes going wide in shock and my body actually getting cold and paralyzed for a moment. I began muttering to myself.

"I went against my pack for you…. What have I done…?"

And then the anger, regret, hurt and a lot of other emotion came kicking back in, making me shout all over again.

"YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU MADE ME DO JUST NOW ?! I CAN NEVER GO BACK TO THEM ! YOU JUST TURNED ME AGAINST MY ONLY HOME ! ! !"

I was going frantic. I didn't know what to do at this point. At one site I was mad at Zero for being here, at the other site I knew it was my own damn fault for what I did. And I didn't even know why I did it. Sure Zero has been like my brother back then, but that has been years ago before I was left forgotten and alone.

After my little rent against Zero, I turned and stomped away. Cursing all and everything while kicking the ground. I may not know where to go, but I knew not to linger around. The pack may come back with more members and then we would be dead for sure. Even though I may have stood up for Zero not more than a minute ago, I didn't feel like doing it again. Hell I didn't even want to talk to him right now.

"Meggie…? "

I heard my name being called. It sounded as if he was unsure of his realization. 'Well if you are that unsure of recognizing your adopted sister, don't count on me!' With that strong in my mind I kept walking on. "MEGGIE it is you, isn't it?" There was less hesitation this time in calling my name, but at the end there was still that question. 'Why do you need to ask that! You know it's me, so stop doubting already. I haven't changed that much! …. Or maybe I have? It's been some years…. Maybe I did change more than I have realized.' Then it hit me that we were still too close to their territory.

I relaxed my body slightly, making my claws and canes disappear and my eyes turn back from its yellow color to its normal lavender ones.

'We need to get out of here, FAST.'

Is the online thought now in my head. But looking back at Zero I wasn't exactly sure where to go or what to do. "Zero? … Do you.. recognize me?" Looking him in the eye to make sure, I saw the recognizing growing. He recognized me for sure now.

"Meg. Meg what happened to you? What JUST happened?"
"No time to explain now Zero. We need to go. They will be back soon with more of the pack. If we stay, were dead."

With that I resumed walking. This time a little calmer and Zero fallowing me.

~half an hour later~

"Were are we going?" Zero asked me. He seemed to be zo calm in while asking that. I may have been looking like I knew exactly where I was going. Having kept a strait back and determined steps in one direction only this whole walk. He wouldn't have been able to see how frantic and restless I have been inside, while keeping my senses trained as sharp as possible on my surroundings.

Still I didn't really have an answer on his question. I didn't know where we were going or could possible go. So I give the only response I could.

"Away"

After all what else could I say?

"So you don't know where you are going?"He questioned next.

"No."

"Than what are planning to do?"

Feeling irritated with the questions already. 'Serious stop with the questions.' I answered again.

"Don't know."

After that we kept walking in silence for some time again.

Normal POV~

All the while Zero was thinking on the situation. Having hard Meggie's answers, he kind of started to feel sorry for her. Not guilty. After all he didn't know that he was on dangerous territory back there. And she had defended him on her one will. But knowing that he indirectly made her lose her home. Her second home. He felt that he needed to do something. He didn't want to lose his only family member all over again. Not after losing Ichiru to dead. Back then he believed Meg to be already dead. Hunted by Shizuka too. Now having her alive by his side, he wasn't going to give her up again. So that left him no choice.

"You can come with me, if you want, to Cross Academy."

"Cross Academy?" She asked him back. She had heard that name before, but never payed any real attention to it.

"It's a school. You can stay at the campus."

"You go there." She wasn't asking it this time. Somehow she already knew her statement to be true. But not knowing what else to say Zero answered anyway.

"Yes."

Not feeling like wanting to go along with just anything thrown at her, but still not having come up with any other options to go with, Meg decided just ask for a reason.

"What would be the reason for me to go there?" She could always just roam around the forest if the answer didn't please her.

"It's a place to go. You will be save there."

Giving Zero a short glare over her shoulder before turning her eyes back forward, she responded back to him. "I can protect myself."

And then it happened.

Grapping Meg's wrist, Zero turned her around. Things may have changed during the years, but he still felt protective of her. She still was his little sister to him. The one who needed protection. The one who would refuse all help when trying to do something and would quietly come to him in the end, asking for his help.

It's true that with all what happened back then he never actually came to look for her. He was still in his own shock at first and after that he had truly believed her to be dead. Too be killed by Shizuka Hio. Even after seeing Ichiru alive he still thought Meg to be killed like his parent were. After all everyone knew about Meg back then. How she was adopted. How she was made part of the family. So even if she wasn't home at the time of the killing, why wouldn't Shizuka come back for her later.

But she was alive and standing before him now. Proving him wrong of his own thought. The thought that he didn't have any family left. Now that he had her back, he silently promised himself to never let her go again.

"Come with me Meg. Please. I can't lose you again."

The way he looked at her made Meg freeze in her place. His eyes. She couldn't even remember ever seeing so many emotions in them. Swirling and blending together, she didn't know what to make of them. The first thing she saw was determination, a fire to achieve its goal. It's the look they had in their eyes whenever they chaste their prey. The next thing looked like a form of…. Caring? Meg wasn't sure. It looked like it but how could that be. He left her. Didn't come looking for her back then. The rest was even more of a mystery for her. Protectiveness, loving, vulnerability, insecurity. It was there, but how? Why? Why did he look at HER that way?

His eyes softened at her. Making her unable to look away.

"Please?"

Without her knowing her eyes softened at him to. She had missed him. Even if she didn't want to admit it, she still loved him and cared for him so much. He was her brother. He would always be her brother.
Feeling her eyes starting to water, she quickly blinked them away and turn her head to the side. Letting her hear conceal her face, before she whispered a soft "Fine".

Hardening her facial expression, she turn back to Zero. Staring him strait in the eye with a cold look , she asked "Where to go?".

And that is how their journey to Cross Academy started.
