Chapter 2
Seras slowly opened her eyes only to find herself surrounded by darkness, panic rose in her chest as she felt the black around her, closing in on her. She tossed and turned feeling it encircling her, suffocating her. She swung her head around only to find nothingness.
Steadily, the darkness began to disappear to show a slightly blurry dreamlike scene. Seras now found herself standing in the middle of a grand corridor. Elaborate paintings and tapestries hung on the lavish walls. A Luxurious red carpet ran through out the length of the corridor. As Seras began to marvel at her surroundings, a man, with brown hair in a night class uniform ran past her leaving a cold trail of air behind him. The curious girl found herself running after the man.
"Seras?! Seras!" he shouted as he ran. Seras stumbled as she followed him.
W…why is he looking for me?
As they both reached the third hallway, they saw a girl unconscious in a pool of blood on the floor at the far end. Seras peered to try and get a better look at the body, and then realisation hit her like a punch to the gut.
"SERAS!"
T…that's m…me.
The man ran faster and knelt by her side, drawing her up into his arms. A maid came around the corner and screamed when she saw the scene before her.
Seras began to stumble forwards, That's me. Unexpectedly dizziness hit Seras; her limbs grew heavy as she tried to advance towards the scene before her. She fell to her knees as the picture faded and the darkness consumed her.
Light from the setting sun cut through Seras' dreams. Golden beams of sunshine gave warmth to her otherwise cold, pale cheeks. The dizzy girl slowly opened her sensitive eyes to the light and got out of bed. Shaky legs manoeuvred her to her bathroom that was connected to her grand bedroom. Seras looked into the mirror on the wall, her pale, porcelain skin remained unchanged however a pair of red eyes stared back. She widened her eyes to get a better look at her appearance. Red…the colour of spider-lilies. She then proceeded by cutting her finger and then pulling back her top lip to see her teeth. Sure enough fangs protruded, sharp and white. Only then did Seras realise that she was not in her own room down in the Sun dorm but in a room up in the Moon dorm. Seras cleaned herself up and then looked in the large oak wardrobe that stood beside the bed. Inside was a female Night Class uniform. It was perfectly pressed with not a crease insight. She quickly placed the uniform on the bed as she began to undress.
An ugly scar ran across her hip from last night where the sword had been pushed through. Sears ran her fingers along it. She flinched and receded her touch.
There was a knock on the door as Seras was pulling on her jacket. A moment later it opened and in walked a silver haired girl, she too was wearing the white uniform, "I am Seiren. Lord Kaname is my master; he has taken a liking to you so I will do my best to help protect you, however…" Seiren looked right into Seras' eyes with an evil glint, "If you ever endanger my master, then I will not hesitate to kill you." She gave a quick curt bow and left. As the door clicked shut Seras was brought out of her trance.
K…Kaname?
Seras suddenly feel to her knees clasping her head the world shook around her. As the vampire fell forwards she put one hand on the floor to steady herself and gasped.
There was an abrupt knock on the door before a deep voice inquired "Lady Seras?"
Seras couldn't focus on what was going on around her, "Seras?!"
The pain subsided almost as quickly as it had appeared, she looked up at the door as the voice spoke again. Rising to her feet, the vampire weakly stumbled to the door before opening it to reveal Kaname. The pureblood prince looked down at Seras with slight concern, "Are you well, Lady Seras?" he asked. Seras nodded weakly, "I am fine thank you, Lord Kaname. Also thank you for last night."
Kaname nodded before saying, "Come down into the lobby in ten minutes, we will be leaving for class then." and walking away.
Seiren walked up to Kaname's side as he made his way back to his study across the hall. As they walked he said quietly, "I felt her suffer not too long ago. She just felt intolerable pain and yet she mentioned nothing of it to me. She can't heal as quickly as other vampires due to her recent transformation. Awakening a pureblood like that is dangerous and she will now suffer because of it."
Seiren looked at Kaname without saying word and he sighed, walking through the door frame and into his study.
Seras descended the stairs to the lobby ten minutes later, the noise from outside hurt. Her now sensitive hearing was taking the full impact of screaming girls from the day class students. She stopped three quarters of the way down the stairs and looked troubled as she put a hand to her ear. Akatsuki Kain looked up at her with a knowing look, "You will get used to this eventually." He said pointing his thumb over his broad shoulder at the door and windows.
Hanabusa Aido practically skipped up behind Akatuki Kain and smirked at Seras, "Well, well what do we have here?" He asked in an intimidating and husky voice. There was an abrupt cough from up at the top of the stairs that made Aido cower away.
"Lord Kaname." Gasped Ruka Souen, she smoothed down her skirt waiting for the pureblood to acknowledge her.
He reached the bottom step and stopped, turning to face Seras he said "Are you ready Lady Seras?" He held out an inviting hand towards her and she gratefully accepted after a moments of hesitation.
Light from the setting sun burst through the double doors as they were opened, girls screamed on all sides. The group of vampires walked out into the evening air Aido and Akatsuki leading, closely followed by the girls, then Kaname and then lagging behind was Seras. Everything around her seemed to sway with each step she took. A pair of eyes were drilling into the back of her head, the vampire turned unsteadily on her feet to see Zero leaning against the wall staring at her.
Kaname turned and clocked Zero, moving forwards he lightly held onto the swaying female vampire's arm, "Come Lady Seras." Seras allowed Kaname to take some of her weight as they walked towards their lesson.
