Chapter 1: Harmonious DiscordYuu Kanda woke up at 5:30 as a part of his daily routine. He then spent the next two hours meditating and training with his family's heirloom sword, Mugen, in the backyard. He treasured these two hours of peace and quiet mostly because no one in the house woke up until about 7:30.
On cue, a voice cut through the tranquil environment. "Yuu-kun! Yuu-kun! It's time for breakfast!"
Kanda's eye twitched slightly as he angrily stomped into the house. "Damn it, old man. Stop calling me that!"
Froi Tiedoll ignored the murderous aura hanging over his adopted son and smile benignly. "What would you like to eat, Yuu-kun?"
The dark aura around the dark haired teen grew heavier, and Kanda's hand tightened around Mugen's hilt. He debated for a moment if killing the old man would be worth the trouble.
"It's not worth it, Kanda."
The tension faded a little as Marie attempted to calm Kanda down. The large man didn't seem very worried. After all, Kanda threatening their adoptive father became a daily occurrence years ago.
"Che. We'll never know until we try."
Daisya walked in and added his two cents. "Well, I don't mind if you off the old man, but who's going to clean up the blood stains?"
Kanda's eye twitched again. "Che."
Teidoll's smile brightened. "Ah. All my cute sons are here! Yuu-kun, Dai-kun, are you two ready for school?"
"Stop. Calling. Me. That."
The murderous aura returned full force accompanied by a vicious glare that usually made little children cry. Daisya backed away while Tiedoll just continued to smile, oblivious to the warnings of impending danger.
Fortunately, Marie intervened again. "What would you like for breakfast, Kanda? I'll prepare it while you shower and get ready for school."
"Che. Soba." With that curt reply, Kanda stormed off to his room. Daisya and Marie breathed a sigh of relief.

Lavi Bookman woke at 7:17 from a kick to the head, courtesy of the elder Bookman.
"Damn in, Panda-jiji. That hurt!"
Lavi was rewarded with another kick that sent him flying to the other side of his room.
"Hmph. Youngsters these days have no respect. Get up, stupid grandson of mine. You have school." Bookman then walked out leaving Lavi to nurse his headache.
Fifteen minutes later found Lavi and Bookman in the kitchen. Lavi noisily munched on cereal that was quickly turning mushy from the milk while Bookman quietly watched the news on the small television situated on the counter.
: Breaking news today. A body was found early this morning around 5 o'clock in an alley near Crest Street. Police say the victim was drained of blood, and the only clue as to how the victim was killed is two puncture wounds on the neck. Police have no suspects at this time. If anyone has any information about this crime please call 429—:
The reporter's voice was cut off as Bookman turned off the television. Lavi sat completely still staring at the TV with a wide eye. A spoonful of cereal suspended halfway to his mouth. Neither spoke for a few moments.
"I will go speak to General Tiedoll about this. You go inform our other General about this matter."
Lavi grimaced slightly as he put down his breakfast. "Why me? He scares me especially with that mask hiding half his face."
Bookman stared at his grandson for a moment then smacked the red head. "Don't complain about someone else's mask when you have an eye patch. And, I want you to inform him because he teaches at your school."
Lavi sighed dramatically before turning serious again. "Jiji, about this vampire—"
"We as members of the hunters' society, the Dark Order, have a duty to destroy the threat known as vampires. Don't feel sorry for those monsters. They may look like humans on the outside, but if you turn your back to them for a moment, they'll drain you dry. As a vampire hunter, there's no need for compassion, especially when the slightest hesitation will mean your death."
Lavi closed his eye. "…I know…"

: A body was found early this morning around 5 o'clock in an alley near Crest Street. Poli—:
"Allen."
There was no reply.
: —ined of blood, and reports say the only clue as to how the victim was killed is two puncture wounds on the neck. Police have no suspects at this time. If anyone has any infor—:
"ALLEN!"
The white haired vampire flinched. "Y-yes, Tyki?"
"What did I say last night?"
"Umm…to be c-careful?"
The dark haired vampire seemed to tower over Allen, who was sitting on the living room couch. "Then explain to me, how is leaving the body in that alley being careful?"
"I f-forgot."
"Forgot?"
"W-well, we usually m-move around a lot and rarely stayed in one city for l-longer than a few days, s-so it didn't really matter if I just left the b-bodies where I k-killed them. A-and—"
"Stop."
Allen instantly shut his mouth.
Tyki let out a long sigh. Seeing the normally happy and smiling Allen fidgeting and stuttering made him feel a little guilty.
"Hopefully the hunters will just think it's a random vampire passing by. Be more careful, shounen. We can't afford to have the Dark Order on our trail. This means no more killing your victims."
Allen nodded. Tyki noted that the movement was stiff and tense. With a slight smile, he ruffled the younger vampire's hair. Allen looked up at Tyki with large tear-filled eyes.
Tyki winced a little. Staying mad at Allen was comparable to staying mad at a puppy that just soiled a $500 rug. He wanted to be mad but that sad, pitiful look just made him feel guilty instead. Tyki sighed again.
"Come on. Go get your stuff. We have to go to school."
Allen's face brightened until he remembered something. "Tyki? About what you said last night. Who else is teaching at the school?"
The older vampire grinned a little. "You'll see."
"Tyki, I want to know. Who is it?"
"Hmm…did you say something, shounen?"
"Tyki!"
--
When Tyki and Allen arrived at Hoshino High School, the first thing Tyki did was show Allen where his office was located. Tyki knew of Allen's sense of direction or lack thereof. Despite how small the high school may be, Tyki was sure Allen would be lost half the time for the first month.
After getting a map from Tyki, Allen started to make his way to first period, which turned out to be Biology. He finally found the classroom five minutes after the bell rang. The teacher stopped calling role when Allen opened the door.
"Oh? You're late."
Allen automatically bowed and started to apologize. "I'm sorry for being late."
"You don't have to apolo—"
The white haired boy didn't hear the teacher and continued talking. "I'm new here and I don't know my way around."
"It's alrig—"
Allen continued to ramble nervously. "Also, I have a really bad sense of direction, and the map is a little hard to understand."
"Are you Allen Walker?"
"And—eh? I m-mean yes. I'm Allen Walker."
The teacher smiled kindly. "Good. As I was saying, there's no need for you to apologize. You're new here so let me welcome you to Hoshino High School. My name is Komui Lee, and I'm your Biology teacher this year."
Allen smiled brightly. "Ah, it's nice to meet you."
Mr. Komui nodded and looked around the classroom. "Let's see. The only open seat is next to… Lenalee. NOO!! I can't let a boy sit next to my precious Lenalee! No octopus shall taint my pure little sister!"
Allen sweatdropped a little as the teacher continued his rant about octopi.
"Excuse me."
Allen turned to the voice. A girl with long dark hair smiled and motioned for him to sit in the desk next to her. Allen glanced over at the teacher who was still rambling before making his way to the empty seat.
The girl greeted him. "Hi. I'm Lenalee Lee. The teacher is my brother. Just ignore him when he starts ranting."
Mr. Komui finally noticed that Allen was sitting next to his sister. He wailed, "LENALEE!!!"
Lenalee looked embarrassed. "Really, just ignore him. Anyway, welcome to Hoshino High. What classes do you have?"
Allen pulled out his schedule and handed it to her. Lenalee looked over it for a few moments.
"Wow! We have almost the same schedule. Only our last class is different. This makes it easier for me to show you around."
Allen brightened. "Really? Thanks! I got lost twice looking for this class."
Lenalee giggled. "Don't worry. Just follow me to the other classes and I'll tell you how to get to your last class."
"Thanks a lot, Lenalee."
"LENALEE!!"

After Biology was English with Reever Wenham. He looked exhausted, as though he hadn't slept in days.
Unfortunately, Mr. Komui decided that any octopus that dared to sit near Lenalee must be eliminated, so he pulled out a high-tech drill from out of nowhere and started chasing Allen. Lenalee grabbed Allen's hand and dragged him to their next class. Mr. Komui followed.
The look on Mr. Wenham's face was priceless when Mr. Komui burst into the classroom brandishing a drill and threatening a student.
"Komui! What are you doing? Get back to work!"
"But, but, Reever. The octopus."
"You shouldn't be chasing after students, with the amount of paperwork in your office. Go do your work!"
"But Reever."
"Out!"
Mr. Wenham kicked Mr. Komui out and slammed the door. After that, class went smoothly and peacefully.
Third period was Study Hall. Then lunch.
--
Lenalee led Allen to the crowded cafeteria. She looked around for a few minutes before she found what she was looking for. She pulled Allen over to a table in the corner of the cafeteria. Two boys sat there. One had red hair and a welcoming smile. The other had long black hair and a menacing aura warning people to stay away from him.
Lenalee laughed a little when they reached the table. "Lavi. Kanda. This is Allen Walker. He's new here."
The dark haired teen looked up and dark eyes met silver. For a moment, surprise, recognition, and an unreadable look flickered in the dark depths. Abruptly, those emotions vanished replaced with a dark glare. It happened so fast that Allen wondered if it had been his imagination.
The teen with red hair grinned. "Hey! I'm Lavi. The grouch over here is Yuu-chan. It's nice to meetcha."
The black haired teen snapped at Lavi. "Baka Usagi, don't call me that. And you, Moyashi, my name's Kanda. Call me anything else and I'll cut you to pieces."
Allen frowned slightly. "Moyashi? My name's Allen."
"Che. Whatever, Moyashi."
Twitch. "It's Allen."
A slight smirk. "Moyashi."
Twitch. Grit teeth. Twitch. "A-l-l-e-n."
A raised eyebrow. "M-o-y-a-s-h-i."
Allen wanted to scream at the annoying human. Really, how hard was it to say two syllables? Unfortunately, being raised as a gentleman, Allen was reluctant to raise his voice since that would be rude. "Why are you calling me that? What does it mean?"
The dark haired human had the audacity to roll his eyes. "Che. Look it up, Moyashi."
Allen resisted the urge to strangle the teen. Thankfully, since he fed last night, Allen could control his bloodlust and keep his eyes from turning crimson. He had to keep up his human façade whether he liked it or not. So, he pasted a forced smile onto his face and went to get his food. When Allen returned to the table, Lavi had already left to go talk to a teacher, and Kanda had just disappeared. The rest of lunch was spent talking with Lenalee.
And thus Allen and Kanda met.
--
After lunch was History with Kevin Yeegar then Foreign Languages with Miranda Lotto. Allen decided that school wasn't so bad, of course, disregarding his meeting with that irritating human called Kanda. So, Allen made his way to his last class with a lightheartedness that kept a smile on his face.
Even after getting lost three times on the way and being seven minutes late for class, Allen's cheerfulness wasn't ruined. As he opened the door to his last class, he thought, 'Life here might not be so bad. Right now, only one thing could ruin my mood.'
"Oh? So the new student finally deigns to show up for my class?"
Allen froze. His happiness drained away to be replaced with anxiety, paranoia, and memories of past traumas. 'No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Please no. Anyone but him.'
"What kind of idiot shows up late for class, anyway?"
'Life can't be so cruel. Can it?'
"Hey! Get your ass in here and close the door, stupid student."
Allen slowly looked up and nearly burst into tears. 'Why? Why must life be so cruel?'
Cross Marian sat behind a desk with his booted feet situated on top of the desk. An unholy grin adorned his face, there was a mischievous gleam in his one visible eye, and Allen swore he saw a hammer in the red haired man's hand.
Allen gulped. 'Help.'

Well, that's it for chapter one.
