Vampire Queen

Chapter 3: The First lesson

After that, Kaien Cross came into the room and gave Kiyomi her uniform and dorm room number. He left after a tightening snug hug with his daughter. Zero walked her to her dorm and they parted ways. All of Kiyomi's things were set in place. Her clothes in her closet, her pictures already hung on the wall. She got changed into her purple night gown and brushed her hair then plaited her hair into pigtails. Kiyomi fell flat onto the bed and drifted into her own little dreamland…


The next morning…

Kiyomi was awoken by the chirping of birds and the illuminating rays of the sunshine. She opened her tired eyes and yawned and stretched like a drowsy lion. She looked around her and smiled to herself. "I'm finally home!" She said as she got up and hit the shower. Kiyomi didn't share a room with anyone. The headmaster's daughter sighed in pleasure as she relaxed under the lukewarm water.

20 minutes later she was drying and brushing her long straight blonde hair. When she caught a glance of herself in the mirror she sighed. 'People say I look like mother and I don't even remember what she looked like.' Kiyomi forgot about who her mother was and what she looked like, when she saw her being killed in front of her eyes. The poor little five year old girl forgot everything about her late mother due to the state of shock. On with the story!

Kiyomi got changed in the bathroom, but her face scowled when she saw the skirt. 'Why is life so cruel? Look how short it is!' She pouted and sighed with defeat as she wore the skirt and the uniform. Then there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it!?" Kiyomi yelled.

There was a pause; "It's me!" a familiar voice answered. Kiyomi knew who it was, closed the bathroom door a bit, hiding herself, while smirking and an unusual tint of red on her face.

"Who is me!?" She asked playfully praying not to laugh. She could hear her childhood friend growl and hit his head on the door out of annoyance. She couldn't hold it any longer and she burst out laughing.

"Come on in Zero!" The door opened but immediately, Kiyomi realized that she was in her uniform and hid behind the door. Zero noticed her flustered face and looked at the ground with a tint of pink playing on his cheeks. "Are you ready yet? It's time to go to class." He stated a bit uneasy.

She went even redder, "Ummm, yes…" She was shy again, that she wore a skirt.

"Well come on then Kiyomi, we haven't got all day!" He sounded impatient. She opened the door revealing her. She stared at the floor.

"Uhhhh, I-I'm no-not use t-to w-wearing skirts…" Kiyomi stuttered.

'She looks so innocent, she looks like a Princess.' Zero thought to himself. There was an awkward silence between the pair. "I think we should get to class." She broke the silence that was growing between them. He nodded and they were off.

While walking through the corridors everybody stared at her. All the girls smiled at her and waved. 'Wow the girls over here are so nice!' She thought. Whilst all the boys gawked at her, some of them winking and others were saying 'Hey princess.' She got used to it like it's nothing now.

They got to the class and it was already full. Zero went to his seat almost immediately and left Kiyomi at the front of the class. The whole class were fixed on her, the guys whistling and the girls talking about how she looked. All the comments were positive and she smiled at this. 'This won't be so bad after all! At least the guys aren't that bad.' She grinned at this considering the past encounter with boys. Nearly all of them ended in broken bones and bruises, well not on Kiyomi, (you know what I mean). Zero's lavender eyes didn't leave her. He thought how her personality stayed the same, how cheerful and loving she was.

In came the teacher, Toga Yagari; still the best vampire hunter in the association. He had messy black hair and very light blue eyes. Yagari wore a smart shirt and trousers and had a few folders and books in his hand. 'Hehe, teacher by day, vampire hunter by night.' Kiyomi laughed in her mind.

Yagari stopped in front of her then rustled the girls hair, "Cross' little girl right?" He laughed with a deep voice. "Alright class, this is the headmaster's real daughter. Hey kiddo why don't you take it from here?"

Kiyomi nodded then stood forward, "Hello everyone! My name is Kiyomi Cross. Yes, I am the headmaster's daughter, but that doesn't mean a thing. So I am who I am and please accept me!" She said with a huge smile on her face. Everyone admired her personality she was so happy, sweet and herself. "Ok little one go-" That did it.

"Excuse me?" What Kiyomi hated most is when people called her little when she wasn't. Kiyomi is taller than average girls and much more mature and that is what makes her unique (one of the many things). She clenched her fists and they began to tremble. The angered girl slowly turned to Yagari and he gulped.

"What were you gonna call me Sensei?" She said through her teeth. Kiyomi looked like she was going to murder the next that moved even an inch.

"Nothing, I swear, just don't kill me!" He pleaded like a dog. The whole class had their mouths wide open like windows.

"It better not!" She walked up to the empty seat next to Zero. Whilst on the way she heard whispering of, "Oh my god! She's scarier than Kiryuu!"

"Even if she is, she sure did scare the hell out of Yagari!" She just laughed at the comments.

"Hey is anyone sitting next to you?" She asked with sparkling eyes and an innocent voice. Zero looked at her from the corner of his eye.

"No." She sat in the seat and Yagari proceeded with the lesson. She continued listening to the boring lesson but took a few notes here and there. Every time Yagari made eye contact with Kiyomi, she would glare and if glares could kill, then he would have been killed the first second she would look at him. He would immediately avert his eyes to the different direction.

Suddenly she felt an unfamiliar weight on her shoulder. She slowly turned her head, to see Zero sleeping peacefully in his dreams leaning on her shoulder. 'How cute! Sleep well, Zero you deserve it…" She said in her head. A smile played on her lips. But as minutes flew out the window she began to flutter her eyes. She leaned on his head and sunk into her own world full of dreams. A couple of minutes after, Zero woke up quietly and sat upright causing Kiyomi to fall onto his lap. She was deep in sleep and he couldn't help but smile himself, whilst stroking her hair. 'Sleep well, sleeping beauty…" he said in the deepest of thoughts as the lesson ended.
