Chapter Two
To Quit or not to Quit?
"That was a very interesting speech..." I hear a smooth voice saying next to my ear I jumped a a little and quickly turned around my eyes widen a bit when I saw who it was.
"Idol-senpai!! Aido-senpai!!! Kyaaa!!" The girls suddenly screamed and I could hear the horde coming from behind. I knew it was to late to stop them.
"Hiii everybody! Did you miss me?!" Aido-senpai said in a cheery voice as all the girl ran over me to him.
'What do you know, first I was standing on my two legs and now I'm sitting flat on my but on the freaking floor! God is my karma that bad?!' I thought to myself as I slowly stood up while rubbing my but and lower back, it hurts like hell when you get run over by a wild pack of Night class fans. I looked at the girls who were all clinging on Aido-senpai asking him to shoot them...
'Those girls really are freaking insane. Asking some guy to shoot them...'
I sighed and dusted my self off and looked around for Zero. He was already prying of the girls around Aido-senpai. I was ready to walk towards them to help Zero out. I suddenly stopped my tracks when I felt a warm hand on my shoulders.
"Are you all right?" A deep, velvet voice asked me. I could feel my heart beating faster as I turned around to find a pair of dark chocolate brown eyes looking back in my own. I could feel my body stiffen up as I looked at him. My cheeks were heating up as I nodded slowly. The words wouldn't come out of my mouth damn it! He gave me a gentle smile and held out his hand to me. In his hand was my new prefect arm band.
"You dropped this." He said in a gentle voice. I looked up at my arm and then at his hand.
"Oh, I must have dropped it when I fell down. Thank you Kuran-senpai." I said as I found my voice again and bowed a little showing my gratitude towards him.
"I see that you have become the new prefect of this academy.." Kaname said as he watched me put on my prefect wrist around my arm. I clipped it with a safety clip, making sure that it wont fall of again.
"Unfortually yes. The head master somewhat insisted that I become one but I don't actually understand what the use is of it. I mean all we have to do is to make sure that the Day class students stay out of the way for the Night class students..." I looked at Kaname and saw that his gaze was fixed on me, intensely. I gulped a little as he came closer, he was about to say something but we were interrupted as a blond haired boy with bright green eyes walked towards us.
"Kaname, Aido is making quite a fuzz don't you think!" He said happily and looked at me before a smile appeared on his lips.
"Why hello, I think we haven't met before! I'm Takuma Ichijou I'm the vice president of the Night class. A pleasure to meet you! Oh, I see that you're the new prefect and that you're helping Kiryuu-kun around! What is your name?" Ichijou said and asked as he took my hand and shook it. I blinked a couple of times and nodded at him.
"My name is Souma Juuri and yes I kinda help Zero out." I said as I shrugged my shoulders a bit, taken back by his action.
"If you are helping me out why are you then talking with the Night class students?" a voice of a certain somebody hissed behind me. The certain somebody pulled me back from Kaname and Ichijou by grabbing the back of my uniform. I yelped softly as he turned me around, looking back into a pair of purple eyes glaring at me. Why does he always glare at me?! I could feel my temper coming up.
"I couldn't help it! Those girls ran me over when they saw the Night class students come out! I fell on the ground and Kuran-senpai asked me if I was okay! I was about to go back-" I wanted to say more when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I frowned and yelped again, feeling myself being pulled back again but this time away from Zero.
'What am I a ping pong ball?!'
I looked up and saw Kaname staring at Zero and Zero back at Kaname. They both looked calm and collected as it was like a kind of staring competition. Every body grew quiet as they could feel the tension in the air. Even those idiot fangirls.! I could see that Zero was tense his fist were now in tight balls as he was trying to hold back himself. The Night class students had serious looks on there faces, even Ichijou and Aido. It was like they were afraid that Zero would snap ore something, like they were alert. The tension was so think you could cut the air with a knife and this was freaking me out to be honest. I quickly turned around, facing Kaname and bowed.
"I'm terribly sorry for holding you up Kuran-senpai. Would you please continue your way towards the academy. I believe that your class is starting." I said in the most politest tone, still bowing. I could feel all the stares on me.
'God! This is so embarrassing!'
"I see..." Was the only thing Kaname said as I hear his footsteps, fallowed by Ichijou walking past me. I looked up and saw that the Night class students were waiting for Kaname and Ichijou. Kaname suddenly stopped and looked over his shoulder straight at me, his dark eyes peering in my brown ones.
"Thank you for the hard work... Miss Disciplinary Committee" I didn't knew why but I could feel my face heat up a little as I looked away quickly. Anywhere but his hypnotic gaze. A small grin appeared on his lips as all the Night class students walked away in silence to the school. The girls were screaming and whining before Zero scarred them away. Now it was only me and Zero. I looked at Zero and he just glared at the path that lead the Moon dorm to the academy.
"Zero.. Look I'm sorry that this all happened. You know I didn't ask for this job-"
"Well, you got it! So you better act like it!" Zero snapped at me. I frowned and glared at him.
"Zero, what the hell is your problem?! This was my first day you can't expect me to do everything right on the first day! I didn't even know what I did wrong! All I did was talking to Kuran-senpai and Takuma-"
"That's exactly the problem" Zero snapped again but this time he walked forward towards me.
"You aren't supposed to make a chit chat with them! You're supposed to do your job, letting them get to the damn academy as soon as possible!" He yelled at me.
"Why do they have to get to the academy as soon as possible?! It isn't like the academy will run away? And why does only the day class have prefect why doesn't the Night class have any?" I yelled back at him as loud. Zero only looked at me as I asked all these question's. He turned around and pinched the bridge of his nose while sighing softly. I crossed my arms over my chest and waited for him to continue. He put both his hand in to his pockets and looked at the Moon dorm.
"It doesn't concern you at all. Just do you your job!" Zero growled a bit in frustration and walked away from me. I could feel the steam coming out of my ears and the anger boiling in side of me. I hate it when people hide certain things from me and that boy is definitely hiding something and he's not telling me what. I was about to yell and curse at him when he stopped in his tracks. He didn't turn around or anything like that he just stood. We both stood there in silence. I was about to ask him why he is acting like this when he suddenly spoke. The tone of his voice was cold like ice and there wasn't sign of any emotion in. It was just cold and hard.
"I advise you not to get involved with the Night class students. They aren't what they appear to be..." and with that he walked away from me. Leaving me alone in confusion, repeating that sentence over and over in my head. Trying to understand what he meant.

'Calm down Juuri! You just go in to the Headmaster's office and say that you refuse to do this job because some stupid idiot boy with purple eyes is getting on your damn freaking nerves and that you can hardly hold yourself in before choking the life out of that selfish bastard!' I thought taking a deep breath, as I stood in front of the Headmaster's office. I nocked three times on the door before a voice behind the door said enter. I opened the door and was greeted by a crying Headmaster who sat behind a desk that was... broken in two?
"Juuri-chan! I didn't expect you here! You just missed Kiryuu-kun!" His expression changed drasticly. From a crying one to a happy one...
'Is this guy bipolar or something like that?' I shook that thought out of my head as he asked me to sit down in front of him and his desk that was broken in two. I bet a hundred bucks that Zero did that.
"Would you like something to drink, Juuri-chan? Maybe a nice cup of hot tea?" Kaien-san asked as he stood up and grabbed two cups. I nodded at him as he pored the hot tea in the cup.
"Now what brings you here to me, Juuri-chan?" Kaien-san asked with a small smile on his face. I took a zip of my tea and gave him a soft smile before I bowed my head to him.
"I don't want to be a prefect, Sir. I quit." I said straight forward. I took the prefect arm wrist of my arm and laid it down on the broken desk. I looked at the Headmaster and saw to my surprise that he was laughing at me. A look of confusion was set on my face as I watch him laugh. Tears started to form in his eyes.
"Uhm, Sir? What's so funny?..." I asked unsure not knowing why the statement I made was so funny to him.
"Oh, Juuri-chan... You just gave me good laugh! I thought you said that you want to stop being a prefect!" Kaien-san said while whipping the tears from the corner of his eyes. I blinked a couple of times and just looked at him. His laughter slowly went away and he just stared at me.
"You want to quit?..." He asked slowly while pushing his glasses up. I nodded at him while finishing my tea.
"Sir, I just think I'm not the right person for this job. I mean I can't cooperate with my colleague and he the same with me. He totally hates my gut! He just glares at me and in his eyes I do everything wrong. Today I got ran over by the girls and fell down, Kuran-senpai asked if I was all right and handed me the prefect wrist band that fell of my arm. Then Zero all of the sudden snapped at me and held a starring competition with Kuran-senpai! I mean that is just ridiculous!" I threw my arms up in the air in frustration.
"Well, I don't think Kiryuu-kun hates you at all." Kaien-san said while taking a zip of his tea. I frowned and looked at him with disbelieve.
"Uh Sir, I don't think you heard me quite good. He does hate me!" I said getting annoyed. Kaien-san just smiled at me and signaled me to come a little closer.
"You want to know a secret?" He whispered softly. I looked at him and slowly nodded not having a single clue where this conversation was going.
"Zero never lets anyone call him by his first name. Yet I didn't hear him say to you to call him Kiryuu-kun. So can you understand why I think he doesn't hate you? I'm not even allowed to call him Zero! And I'm his adopted father!" Kaien-san said in a whining voice. I blinked a couple of times and pointed at the Headmaster himself.
"You don't call him by his first name?"
"Nope! He'll kill me if I did." He said and picked up the prefect wrist band that I had put on the broken desk.
"Why not? I mean you're his adopted father. It makes sense that you call your son by his first name right?" I asked not quite understanding. Kaien-san stood up and walked over to the window, looking out at the Academy as the sun was slowly setting. He didn't say a word for a moment when I heard him sigh softly.
"Kiryuu-kun, used to be a happy carefree boy who could get along with everybody. Until his family, parents and his brother were murdered. Can you understand that your world is happy one moment and then suddenly be destroyed? Knowing the ones you love will never return to you... Since that awful day he has been like this. So you can't blame him. He just had hard childhood... " Kaien-san said in serious voice while crossing his arms over his chest. I just sat there staring for a moment the Headmaster before looking down to my hands that were resting on my lap. Knowing this all about Zero, I couldn't help but feel guilty. I have been judging him when I don't even know single thing about him. The Headmaster turned around and saw me bowing my head in shame. A small smile appeared on his lips as he walked over to me and put his hand gently on my shoulder.
"I know that you don't like being a prefect but you can't exactly just quit."
"Huh, why not?" I asked and looked up at him. He pushed his glasses up when I saw a twinkle of mischief in his eyes.
"Well, because of... Article 51 of the Cross Academy, rule number 7: An appointed prefect chosen by the Headmaster himself cannot take the decision to quit." Kaien-san said as a grin appeared on his face. My eyes widen and stood up immediately.
"What?! I can't quit?!" I yelled out loud. Kaien-san covered his ears for a second, still wearing that grin on his face before grabbing my arm and sliding the prefect wrist band on it.
"Nope! You can't so you better hurry up and meet Kiryuu-kun in the school gardens. He's waiting for you there. Your going on your first patrolling for the night. So you can't miss it! Isn't it exiting!" He said and pushed me gently out of his room. I tried to protest but he just cut me off.
"I also have a gift for you Juuri-chan but to bad I don't have it with me now... Kiryuu-kun has it and he will give it to you! He will explain how everything works and what you're tasks are! Just make sure that none of the Day class students go near the Academy! Now have a good time Juuri-chan and remember don't go near the Night class students!" Kaien-san said with a goofy smile while waving a little. Before I could say anything he closed the door in front of my face, leaving me in the hall way. I looked at the door while blinking couple of times. I put my hand in front of my forehead while closing my eyes, taking all the information in what Kaien-san just told me. I sighed and opened my eyes again.
"Well, we can't let Zero wait now can't we." I muttered softly to myself, making my way to the gardens.
-+-+-+-
"What the hell took you so long?!" Zero snapped at me as he saw me coming towards him. I sighed and apologized softly saying that I went to see the Headmaster and I forgot the time. Zero didn't say anything for a moment after a moment he nodded slowly meaning that he understood while standing up from the bench he was sitting on, waiting. He walked to me and held his hand out to me, his head turned away from me. I looked at his hand and then at him. Confusion clearly written all over my face. Zero sighed softly and turned his head to me.
"We didn't start out good. So this is a sort off make up, since we will be partners from now on... The name's Kiryuu Zero." Zero said as he looked at me, straight in the eye. His purple eyes looking deep in to my brown ones. I accepted his gesture, putting my hand in his own.
"Souma Juuri, I'm looking forward to work with you." I said while shaking his hand firmly before letting it go. Zero just nodded and pulled something out of his pocket.
"The Headmaster told me to give it to you." He said and gave it to me. It was a necklace with the Cross Academy logo on it. It seemed to be made of pure silver and in the middle of the rose there was a red ruby in it.
"You must wear it when you go on patrolling at night. It will keep you safe and you must not take it of until sunrise." Zero said as he watched me examine the necklace. I frowned a bit and looked at him.
"Why does it need to keep me safe? I mean nobody is going to attack me out of nowhere, right? I mean we are on school grounds." I said as I put the necklace on. I looked up at Zero and saw that he was staring intensely at the necklace. I called him a couple of times but he didn't responded. I took a step forward towards him when he suddenly snapped out of his daze. He looked at me, his eyes slight wide while his breathing quicken up a bit.
"Zero?... Are you all right? You don't look so good." I asked him a bit worried. Zero took a few steps backs before turning around saying that he is okay. I just nodded not believing him at all but I decided to drop the subject, he obviously didn't want to talk about it. He started to walk a bit before stopping by the fountain motioning me to fallow him. We both walked to the Academy and stopped in front of the Academy doors.
"We will be patrolling around and inside the Academy. Making sure that none of the Day class students will sneak in. If you find some students and they refuse to go back to there dorms after you give them some warnings, you must ask their name, grade, class and tell them that you have the ability to suspend them for a day and if they still don't want to go back, you are allowed to use force until a certain limit. I will be patrolling inside the Academy taking the West, south and east wings. You will be patrolling the area in front of the Academy. We will be patrolling the whole night until the class of the Night class students is finished. We will then meet here on the same spot. Do you understand that?" Zero asked looking at me.
"Yes, I do. I'm in charge of the area in front of the Academy. Making sure that none of the Day class students will sneak in to the Academy. When the lessons of the Night class students is finished we will meet here again on the same spot." I said taking a deep breath. Zero nodded at me as he watched me walking away from the doors towards the entrance pad.
"Juuri..." Zero said suddenly. I stopped in my tracks and turned around, blinking a couple of times.
"Yes,?" Zero was still for a moment when he spoke.
"What ever happens stay away from the Night class students."
I watched Zero opening the grand doors and closing it, disappearing behind it into the Academy. I sighed and slowly looked up at the dark sky that was filled with stars. I didn't understand why I need to stay away from the Night class students, both Zero and Kaien-san told me the same thing. They don't seem bad to me they actually look normal except that almost every student has beautiful looks. I shook my head a bit, I needed to focus on job and not on something els. I looked in front of me again before walking into the forest, not knowing that a pair of chocolate brown eyes were watching me from above.
