Chapter 2- The Birth of a Savior
1 year later December 5, 2000
"Are you alright lady?" The man in front of the cell she was in asked.
Her hands were above her head, handcuffed to the brick wall of the cell. She was at the end of her limits, and she was exhausted and worn out. This child was going to be born now.
"Please, help me. My child, it's coming now and-''
"What?" the man interrupted her, she couldn't see him, for it was dark outside her cell.
"I want my child to live happily, not what she really is. A half Blood." She said.
"A half Blood?" he immediately opened the cell door and took her handcuffs off, he helped her up and led her to another lit up cell with a young woman inside. "Deliver her child, now." He demanded.
"A child? Of course" the young woman, around her mid 20's stood up. She had yellow hair, green eyes, and tattered clothes. "Aaaaaaahhhh- please, it's coming now!" she screamed
They laid her down on the cot beside the wall.

The wailing of the baby brought her awake. "Young man, thank you" the mother said.
"No problem" He said in return.
"May I ask what your name is?" she asked.
"My name is Kuran, Kaname Kuran, I'm a Pure Blood" he stated.
"Then perhaps you're capable of taking care of- is the child a boy or a girl?" she asked.
"It's a girl" he said.
"Oh my god" she gasped in happiness.
"Are you alright?" he asked in a panicked voice.
"Yes, I'm fine, I'm just so happy." She said.
All of a sudden she became very serious.
"Please, tell me what they'll do with her if they find out she's here" She said.
"Torture her…" He said in a sad tone.
"No!" she screamed in panic.
"Shh. They'll hear you…"
She quieted down.
"Can I see her now?" she asked.
"Of course, Tsunade, bring her here." Kaname said.
"Yes sir."Lady Tsunade said.
The mother could see Kaname clearly now, because of the light, he had jet black hair, brown eyes, pale skin, and he looked like about 24 years of age, very surprising.
"Where did you learn how to deliver babies like that Tsunade-san" the mother asked.
"My mother taught me since I was 7 years old."
The baby started wailing loudly and the mother took her. "Shh…Yuki Cross…you must be hungry."Kaname carefully watched as the mother opened her shirt front and placed the baby's mouth towards her breast.
She shrieked, all of a sudden. Suddenly pulling the baby's head away she spoke in surprise "What?"
"What is it?" Kaname asked.
"She bit me" she said.
"Let me see her" he said.
Lady Tsunade just watched the scene unfold. Kaname placed her in his arms for the 1st time and looked to her porcelain face as the realization struck him.
"She's not only a half blood. She's a Holy Pure Blood and a Shape Shifter combined." He said in disbelief.
"What do you mean?" the mother asked.
"She needs blood" Kaname stated. He started to pull his arm sleeve up. Then he bit his hand and drank some blood and place it on Yuki's lips and made her drink it.
The child wailed in happiness at the delicious taste.
Kaname, the mother, and Lady Tsunade smiled.
Kaname then place his bleeding hand to Yuki's lips, she immediately started suckling on his arm.
***
After 5 or 7 minutes, when Yuki finished feeding she fell asleep in his hands.
"Ummm ma'm-"Kaname started.
"Please, call me Aeries Cross" she insisted.
"Aeries, she's no safe here" Kaname said.
"I know" Aeries slumped her shoulders and put her head down.
"Kaname…take her with you and raise her for me." She pleaded. And waited in silence for his reply.
"…Of course… you won't regret it." He said.
They all heard footsteps and Kaname quietly vanished. Aeries stood there quietly.
"How did you get out of your chains and into this cell?" A voice from behind said, startling her and making her yelp.
"You'll never find my child" Aeries declared.
"Oh really, let me introduce myself… I'm Sephiroth" he said it matter of factly.
"She gasped "It can't be" she said in disbelief.
"Oh, yes way" he challenged.
"I'm going to find your daughter and I'm going to make her suffer for a very long time." He said.
"Never" she demanded.
"Oh we'll see Aeries" He challenged. "We'll see."
