Kumi: Hello! This is chapter 3 of fearless night. Yay! It's a new chapter again!
Zero: Will you shut up.
Kumi: Geez Zero. Why can't you try and be nice to me?
Zero: Just shut up.
Kumi: Aren't you glad I'm not sleeping late now?
Zero: You still sleep late!
Kumi: No I don't!
Zero: Yes you do.
Kumi: (pouts)
Zero: Why are you pouting again? Sigh. Never mind.
Fearless Nights
3rd night: Like the past
After that simple talk with Kain, a knock came by her and so she stood up and opened it. In front of her was a very sleepy vampire with dark reddish maroon colored hair and blue eyes. It was Shiki Senri. "Senri-kun." Aimi said blinking in confusion. "Wh-What is it?" She asked then Shiki pulled Aimi's stuffed bear in front of him.
"This is yours, right, Aimi-sama?" He asked and she nodded. Shiki handed the bear to her and left yawning on his way back. She left the bear in front of Shiki's room when Kain was pulling him back. She closed the door and hugged the bear smiling. This was an important item and yet she left it on the hallway.
"Sorry, Zone. For leaving you there." She was talking to the bear. "You must be lonely." She smiled again and walked to her bed. Aimi fell asleep easily and her bear stuck in her arms, hugging it.
There were a lot of screams from the outside and due to her good hearing, Aimi woke up instantly. She sat up, her hair a mess. Aimi covered herself under her blanket but it was futile. She sat up and dragged herself to fix things for school. She walked out of the room, yawning whilst carrying her white bear. "Good Morning." She said walking down towards the other vampires. Kaname walked towards her then started fixing some of her hair. "Nii-san?" She asked still sleepy.
"You should fix your hair." Kaname replied. Aimi looks at him as his older brother. He was always caring. She was like a little girl that you need to watch out for every time. Well, in vampire years, she is certainly young. She smiled and hugged Kaname, still holding unto her bear. "Aimi." She replied.
"Kaname-nii-san, Thank you." She smiled and Kaname sighed. She was so childish. The other vampires then prepared to go out and then later the gates of the moon dorm creaked open revealing a group of girls screaming for Idol and Wild. Some called out to other vampires. Among the crowd are two men in day class uniform, though they were not cheering for the class of beauties. One was asking the girls to keep quiet, charming them. And the other was glaring icily at the girls, scaring them. The charming one was Kaito, a new prefect and a vampire hunter. And the other is none other than Zero.
Aimi walked beside Kaname smiling lovingly. The girls started to whisper but was later charmed when she waved at them and smiled. Though that was not her sincere smile, they were still charmed. Everyone was quiet as the beauty passed by them. She was still holding on her stuffed bear tightly.
Zero noticed the bear that she was holding and froze on the spot. He remembered it well. He was the one who gave it to her during her birthday. Why is she still holding unto it? He asked himself. Kaito turned to him to see that stunned expression of his. "Kiryuu-senpai?" Kaito touched his shoulder and he collected himself. Kaito's green eyes blinked and the wind blow his black hair. "Is there something wrong?" He stood straight and walked away from his sight.
Aidou walked towards the happy Aimi. "That's so great, Aimi-sama." He beamed. "You got the girls' hearts with just one smile." He continued. Aimi smiled grateful of his complement. She told him thank you and then the teacher came revealing Toga Yagari's face. Aimi stood up smashing her hand on the table making everyone look at her.
"Yagari-senpai!" She beamed and when everyone looked at her, she sat back down and blush a deep red. After class, Aimi decided to pay Kaien a visit. "Otou-sama!" She yelled still carrying her stuffed bear, opening the door to see Yagari, Kaien, Kaito and Zero there. "Ah." She flushed again, embarrassed. She bowed. "Sorry, I think I should come back later." She turned to the door and was about to leave when a hand stopped her. She turned around and to her surprise, it was Zero. They stood there staring at each other. "Please let go of my hand." She said her stuffed bear on the other. Zero's gripped tighten and he let go calmly. Aimi's locks hid her eyes.
The tension was too much in the room. "Ai-Aimi-chan, why are you here?" Kaien asked breaking the tension. Aimi turned to her, ah I mean him. She looked pass Zero and smiled. This took Zero back, seeing that smiled.
"Well, I was thinking of having a chat with Kaien-senpai and complain for the work Yagari-senpai gave me." She said in a childish tone. "It was too much." She continued. "Even if I sleep for too long, there wasn't much work in the hunter's association too." She crossed her arms and noticed that her bear was gone. "Eh? Where is Zone?" She said looking for it. Kaito pointed at Zero dragging it with him. "AH! What do you think you're doing?"She yelled grabbing Zone's other arm. "This is mine." She said.
"I'm taking it back." Zero retorted.
"No! This is mine!" She said again. "You gave it to me and it's not yours!" She answered back.
"I was the one who bought it! It was MY money." Zero fought. The two continued fighting just like the old times and the three others in the room sweat dropped. It was like they are so closed to each other again. Then after finally noticing that they were arguing, they stood straight and turned to each other's back. Aimi was holding on to Zone. "Just give it back." He calmly said. Aimi's grip tightened at the bear.
"No." She plainly replied. "Sorry, senpai-tachi. I'll just visit again sometime." Aimi ran away.
"Was that the Akane Princess? The clan of deep red?" Kaito asked the moment Aimi ran away from the room. "How did Kiryuu-senpai knew her?" He asked again.
"She was a former human named Mizune Chitose." Kaien didn't answer his question directly but it explained everything to him. "She studied under me." He continued. Kaito nodded understand. Zero grew darker by just hearing the name Mizune Chitose.
"She's not Mizune!" Zero yelled then ran away from the room as well. He shot the door behind him and slowed by the minute. "What am I getting angry with?" He asked himself. "Everything was all in the past." He face palmed. He then heard a loud bang coming from outside and when he stared at the window, he saw Aimi tripping in a group of trash bins. Kain was walking over to her. He was assigned by Kaname to be her babysitter.
"Aimi-sama, you should be more careful." Kain said helping the helpless girl.
"Well, it's in my nature." She smiled, taking his hand. Kain handed Zone to him. She threw it to him when he fell. "We should head back." She said then smelled the foul smell. "I need a bath." She said then they turned to leave towards the Moon Dorm. Zero, on the other hand, grew angry with no particular reason. Was it jealousy? Guilt? Pure anger? He didn't know. All he knew was that he didn't like what he saw.
Kumi: (still pouting) I managed to finish that.
Zero: I was jealous? Hardly possible.
Aimi: Hardly possible but not impossible.
Kumi: That's right. (happy again)Please read and review.
