Thanks!
Disclaimer: Ditto~ from chapter 1!
Her eyes were filled with fear and shock. She hold her neck so that the blood wouldn't spill out. The images were going in her head about Silver biting her neck.
Silver is...
A vampire!
Shadow, who was in the Chairman's office, looked up.
"What's wrong, Shadow?" Vector asked.
"I can smell blood..."
Vector's eyes shot open. And in a split second, Shadow was out of the door.
"Shadow! Wait!"
Vampire Knight
4th Night
Trigger of Conviction
Silver looked at Amy. His mouth was filled with blood. His clothes were as well.
"Amy... I am..." As he started to walk towards her, Amy stepped backwards. They stood there for some time.
"Amy?" Shadow was coming up the stairs, were Silver and Amy were. Amy looked at Shadow.
"Shadow...?" She questioned.
As Shadow stepped in front of Amy and angrily told Silver, "So, you've finally fallen into the blood lust of beasts... Silver."
Shadow pulled Amy towards him. Amy then had the flashbacks of when Shadow killed that vampire when she was young.
"You're a disgrace to all vampires."
'Silver will be killed!' Amy thought scared of the idea. She did not want Shadow to kill Silver!
So Amy stepped front of Shadow and put her arms out. "Don't kill him, Shadow-!"
She had lost too much blood... she fell into Silver's arm. He had a shocking face.
"Amy...!"
"Your thirst must have been insatiable. To have drained her to the point where she can't even stand..." Shadow said.
Shadow picked up Amy, bridal style and looked at Silver before walking away. "Amy's blood... was it really that... delicious?"
Silver's eyes were filled with shock. He put his hand to cover his face filled with shame. Shadow walked away with Amy in his arms.
"Silver..." Amy said. Shadow looked down at her. "Shadow... why is Silver..."
She could not finish her sentence. Shadow met up with Vector who was standing in the dark hallway."
"Chairman." Shadow said firmly.
"Yes... I know." Vector said looking away.
At the infirmary Amy was treated. She could sit up.
"Um... Shadow... it's okay, so..." Amy put her hand in front of her. "I'll be fine if I just sit down for a while..."
"No." He said simply. He then he cupped her chin making her looked at him. Amy blushed a little.
"Let me see..." He said. He then saw the big bite mark. Shadow then cleaned all of the blod out of the way. That was when he saw the the big bite mark.
"The bleeding has almost stopped, but..." Shadow said. "It's deep. He must have bitten it with all his strength..?" He looked up at Amy. "Amy..."
Her eyes were filled with tears.
"Does it hurt?" He asked.
She then snapped out of it and quickly wiped them away. "Um..."
Shadow kneel to her level and looked at her in the eyes. "Are you afraid of vampires now?"
She shook her head. But the tears were still forming in her eyes.
I don't know why...
My head's still spinning...
But I know one thing for certain...
Silver...
Attacked me...
There was a knock at the door. Shadow and Amy looked up and saw Vector standing in front of the door.
"Shadow, could you go back to the classroom for a while? The Night Class is getting restless with the scent of blood in the air."
Shadow got up. "Understood." he got up and left.
Vector came in and put a large bandage in her bite mark.
"I took Silver back to his dorm. He's calmed down a bit now." Vector said. "We've hidden it from you for so long... You have every right to be shocked. Especially since it turned out like this... I'm sorry, Amy."
"How could I have known that Silver was a vampire!" Amy almost yelled. "For the the last 4 years..."
"I know." Vector said. "It's because Silver was once normal like... you and I. Up until 4 years ago..."
Vector sighed and got up. "Four years ago... his family was attacked by vampires... Silver barely survived. When I found him, he still had the signs of a deep bite mark on his neck."
Silver...
Was bitten
by a vampire...?
"Then..." Amy said. "He used to be normal... but now he's a vampire? It's because he was bitten?"
"Amy... You don't believe in that legend that normal people (or mobians) bitten by vampires turn into ones themselves, do you?" Vector asked. He then looked at her. "But it's true. Vampires that can turn mobians into one of themselves..."
Her eyes shot open. Was she going to turn into one?
"Only a few exist..." Vector said, "The "Pureblood" Vampires."
"Pure... blood..." Amy repeated.
"But you don't have to worry... Amy. Silver isn't one of the Pureblood Vampires. So... You won't turn into one."
I didn't know anything...
Silver...
Four years...
You've been afraid...
And alone...
What kind of life have you led...?
"There was a blood scent earlier..." Sonic said playing with his fake blood. "but in the end nobody told us anything."
Knuckles came in with a towel around his shoulders. He yawned "I don't really care. I am not interested."
Sonic spilled his drink then turned it into ice. "That is... the scent of Amy's blood." He then licked the frozen fake blood.
Amy walked down the large dark hallway. She was thinking. That was until she heard some voices.
"How long are you going to keep him in the Day Class?"
Amy stopped and looked around. "Shadow?" She then saw a door and that light was coming from it.
"But there is no precedent for transferring from Day Class to Night Class." Vector said.
"No precedent is needed, is it?" Shadow said. "You have no choice but to let Silver be admitted here."
Amy was hearing the conversation from outside. 'Silver is transferring to the Night Class?' She thought.
She stepped back and ran. Shadow knew she was there.
I can understand
Where Shadow is coming from.
Now that Silver's become a vampire
It's natural to put him in the
Night Class.
But what about
His feelings,
When he hates vampires
so much that he wish to kill them?
All of them...
Even himself...
Amy then realized it.
Silver has been
hating himself...
Even So...
I...
I said something terrible.
I didn't know I was referring to Silver...
The next day, Amy was in class with her best friend, Tikal.
"6x times 6x plus 7x minus 5..." The teacher went on.
As the boring class was over, Tikal was putting her books away.
"Silver hasn't arrived, right?" Tikal asked.
"Yeah... he hasn't been well since yesterday."
"Did anything happen?"
"?"
"Which reminds me... you don't look very well either."
Tikal then went to look at Amy's neck. "It bugs me... but is your injury serious?"
Amy quickly covered her neck. "Ah..! This? When I went patrolling yesterday, I was careless and got cut by a branch. It's not a big thing. It's okay."
"Then it's fine."
"Alright!" The teacher said "The lesson is going to start. Go back to your seats!"
"All right..." the class said in a boring tone.
Amy looked at the place were Silver would usually sit.
I know, I...
Amy suddenly ran out of the door ignoring all of the calls of the teacher.
"Hey! Amy!" The teacher roared. "Where are you going! Hey!"
She ran. She ran towards the Night Class's Dorm. She was panting. She went to the front gate to see the creepy guy again.
He looked at her.
"Well..." Amy said nervously. "Perfects can go through, right?"
"That's the second time you've gone this morning... It's strange for you to go inside in the morning. Okay, pass"
Amy was relived.
Sonic yawned really loud.
"This is a request for you- the one known as the miracle-boy." said a guy with glasses sitting next to a fat guy. They both wore business suits. They were also sitting in front of Sonic.
"Please help the investigating organization." The chubbier one said. "If you publish the research paper..."
"Eh?" Sonic said annoyed. He had his legs on the couch and had a -_-' face. "But I am not interested in working during daytime. I'm tired, so could you leave?" He said rudely.
"The door is over there." He pointed. Just then, Amy came in.
"Oh? Amy...?" Sonic questioned.
"Oh! Sonikku! I-I mean Sonic!"
Sonic got up and told the two men, "Come on, leave please."
He pushed them out.
"Please! Listen to us a little more!" But Sonic just closed the door.
"Ah... it's so bright... I'm so sleepy..." Sonic said. "I'm tired... it's all their fault!"
He then stared at Amy. She suddenly gulped. "I'm sorry... for disturbing you...!"
He yawned and stretched. "Forget about it. It was their fault... Why are you here, anyways? Everyone is asleep. Ah!"
Sonic then got an idea and put his arm around Amy. "Don't tell me, you want to let me suck your blood..!"
"Of course not! I want to see Shadow!"
He let her go and and started to go up the stairs. "Ah, is that so? Then, come this way."
"Eh? You're taking me there? Fishy..." She muttered the last part.
"Because Dorm Leader Shadow is only kind to you alone." He then looked at her "Everyone just follows him..."
He then looked at her in the eyes. "Amy... Whose teeth mark is that?"
Her eyes grew wide. How!
She quickly touched her bitten part of her neck... the bandage wasn't there!
Sonic playfully waved the bandage around and chuckled. Then he leaned on the rails.
"Last night, the scent of blood suddenly drifted in to the classroom. It... excited us. Though I was the only one who noticed immediately that it was the scent of your blood, Amy. Shadow told us to forget about everything, that is why we stopped making a din."
"Shadow , he..."
Really...
I've especially come to tell him
To help Silver and his secret,
But it seems that even if I
Don't ask him to...
Shadow is that kind of person...
Amy blushed and said "Is that so..."
But Sonic just frowned, then all of the lights of the candles lit out.
Amy was shocked at this sudden movement of Sonic.
"That's enough..." Sonic said holding the rail. "I'm really... irritated..."
The rail turned into ice, going all the way were Amy was.
"What are you to Shadow?"
The ice went up to Amy and froze her right foot making her gasp.
He then approached her.
'My leg! It has been frozen to the spot! It's one of the special abilities that only Nobel Vampires possess...'
"What are you to him?" He questioned again.
"Shadow saved me from a crazy vampire ten years ago; he's my saviour!" Amy said frowning.
"Hum..." Sonic said "Oh, so that's how it is... Such a thing happened... huh." He then smiled "Then to show your saviour your gratitude, Amy... Shouldn't you offer all your blood to repay him for his kindness?"
"Blood?" Amy asked.
"I see... your blood is meant to be Shadow's... but those are not Shadow's teeth marks?"
He got closer to her, almost whispering he said "You shouldn't give your blood to others... including me..."
Sonic touched her bite mark and said "One day, Shadow's lips... will lightly touch this neck of yours..."
Amy's eyes were filled with shock and were also scared.
Sonic continued "And slowly, Shadow's teeth will sink in.."
Amy blushed of the idea.
"If you hear the sound of Shadow drinking your own blood... Amy... then, for sure you'll feel ecstasy?"
Sonic chuckled. "Yes... Go now and ask Shadow... "Please drink my blood"
Amy pushed his hand away from her face. "Stop deciding by yourself!" She said angry.
"Are you embarrassed?" Sonic then grabbed both of her arms and ice began to form on them.
"Sonic! Stop this nonsense now...! Enough already!" She was about to slap him in the face when...
Shadow got her hand before it hit Sonic.
"Stop, Amy."
"Shadow?"
Sonic's eyes grew wide. He knew he was in trouble. "Dorm Leader Shadow!"
All of the ice steamed away.
Shadow glared at Sonic. Suddenly Sonic felt something hard go across his face. He spit out some blood.
"Who want's to do that sort of thing?" Shadow said.
Sonic immediately bowed down with a knee. "No... I was being too impudent. I am really sorry, Shadow."
"Get lost." Shadow commanded.
Sonic nodded and left.
Shadow turned around and said to Amy "It seems that he said things to make you angry... Sorry, Amy..."
But Amy just dazed at him. Then snapped out of it. "Ah! Yes! No... No... Erm..."
He cupped her cheek and said "It's okay. Only Amy can stay being Amy... You're different from those fellows of Night Class who just follow me..."
Amy blushed.
"That Amy is filled with warmth... is already enough."
Why is that...
This person is very..
Very...
Lonely...
"Well, it's time." Shadow said. "Next time, don't come to scary places by yourself."
"Yes..."
"Ask Silver to come with you. As long as there's something he took from you, he should at least be that much of use."
Amy and Shadow were walking to the door. But Amy stopped.
"Please, stop it..." She said. "Why do you have to say it like that..."
Shadow just looked at her. " "Why"... Do you ask...?" He started to caress her face. "Amy... I cannot be indifferent about it, as I had expected. Because my most important girl... has been bitten by another guy."
"Shadow... Actually... I came here because I have something to request from you."
"Hmm?"
"Please do not put Silver in the Night Class!"
"Why?"
"Even Silver has been always fighting on his own... I did not even notice it for the past four years. Even though I'm always by his side. I... did not even notice a bit."
"You're kind, Amy. But that isn't something that you should worry about."
Amy shook her head "That's not the case! I was totally shocked to find out that Silver was a vampire. But yesterday I …. hurt Silver badly." A tear slipped her eyes.
"Amy..." He wiped the tears away, "Sorry... but even though it's a request from you... I can't agree to that. A mobian that transforms into a vampire will definitely sink into a Level E type. He would not want Amy to see him in that form."
Amy stepped backwards. "How could that... " She ran out of the door with tears in her eyes.
Shadow just stared at her even though the door slowly shut in his face.
"I still don't understand why Dorm Leader Shadow is so attached to her..." Knuckles was leaning against a wall with his arms crossed. "And also, being the last member of your family, letting Silver in... Not everyone will be able to accept the fact that they have to mix with someone who was born into a family of vampire hunters."
Shadow just walked by him. "Amy..." Shadow said tuning his head. "Is... the only girl in this world... who is important to me..."
Amy was walking down the stairs of the Academy. She was still thinking about what Shadow had told her about Silver...
"A mobian that transforms into a vampire will definitely sink into a Level E type."
Silver is becoming...
How could that be?
She was outside, it was now dark. She looked up and saw Silver's window with the light still on.
Silver, are you awake?
I haven't seen Silver the entire day...
I wonder what he's doing right now...
Amy started to walk away when she realized it. "Silver!"
She ran towards his dorm.
Sliver threw his suit onto his bed next to a suitcase. He went to his closet and pulled out a dress shirt. Then, something fell from it.
Confused, Silver picked it up. It was a picture of Amy and him. She was smiling brightly and he was just... serious. He remembered when Amy gave it to him. On the picture it said: Hooray! We are in the same class at high school!
Silver sighed and sat down in his bed. He was holding the "Bloody Rose". He put his head down and loaded the gun. He remembered when the Chairman gave him the gun.
"Since you're a perfect, I'm giving you this just in case the one in a million chance arises where something goes wrong. This gun won't hurt mobians... But it will kill a vampire."
Silver pointed the gun towards his head. He was ready to shoot when Amy came running in.
"SILVER!"
She quickly ran towards him and snatched the gun away from his reach.
"What the hell are you doing!"
"Nothing..."
She was on top of him struggling to keep the the gun away.
"Liar! You took off the gun's safety catch!"
"Why did you come here?"
He suddenly flipped her around to that he could be on top of her. He then grabbed the gun with her hands and pointed it to his throat.
"Shoot me now."
Amy's eyes were getting filled with tears.
"Shoot me now... before I sink into a Level E. Kill me with your own hands."
Amy shook her head. He then pulled the bandage from her neck.
"You must have heard it, right?"
Amy just looked at him.
"Can't you hear it? The sound I made when I sucked at your blood... While that sound is running through my ears... You'll never be safe around me... How can you feel fine after a dreadful experience like that?"
"Silver... I-"
"I can't stop myself from feeding on your blood. I don't even know if I will kill the next person I prey on." Silver then, once again, pulled the gun closer to his throat.
"Shoot me now. You're actually afraid of me, right?"
Amy once again, shook her head.
If she wanted to she could shoot him. He finger was on the trigger. But she said, "I could never do that."
He frowned and let go of the gun. He took got off and grabbed the suitcase. Then, he walked away saying, "Then... Don't bother with me anymore."
He left Amy on the bed, still holding the gun in her hands. She sat up and saw a picture on the floor. She remembered when she gave it to him some time ago.
She looked at it. She remembered telling Silver to smile...
"C'mon, Silver! Smile! You look like a zombie!"
"Let me go, Amy. This is stupid."
"No way!"
"That's right, I've..." Amy said... She quickly ran out of the door.
I've always been with you, Silver...
Always...
Silver was going to leave... She did not want her friend to leave. Even though he didn't see her as a friend sometimes.
"Wait!" Amy called out to Silver.
Silver was just a couple of feet away from the main gate.
"SILVER!" Amy called out. She ran up to him and hugged him from behind. He immediately dropped his things.
"Everything is fine already..." She said still hugging him.
Silver's eyes were wide open. He would remember when Amy would always say that back then...
He would sit by the fire and scratch his neck until blood would come out. Amy would watch him dosuch horrible thing. With tears forming in her eyes she ran up to him and hug him saying, "Everything is fine already."
"Amy..." Silver said.
"Though I don't understand anything... I've always been watching you for the past four years, Silver. So I'm not afraid."
She hugged her friend tighter. "Silver, I'll support you!"
I'll be Silver's guardian.
The only people who know...
That Silver is a vampire...
Are the Chairman, Myself...
And Shadow...
Silver looked up at the dark blue night sky filled with thousands of stars... "Amy..."
"Shadow will definitely forgive me for that." Amy said.
Meanwhile...
Eggman was sitting in some throne. Vector was right in front of him.
"I did not expect you accept my invitation, Vector." Eggman said, "How is their son doing? Silver. He's just about reached that troublesome time."
"Not at all... Silver is still holding still together. The Hunter Clan's concern for him is deeply appreciated." Vector turned around to walk away. "I didn't expect that the peace at Cross Academy would arouse suspicion."
"Regarding this issue, I'll await the report from others."
Vector suddenly stopped his tracks.
"I've dispatched that boy." Eggman said. "Should that boy sense any danger, I don't think he will show any mercy in cleaning up the mess."
Vector continued to walk away.
With Silver, he had his eyes still looking at the dark sky. She did not let him go. But little did they know, Shadow was watching them the whole time..
I'll also show you a sweet dream...
Next Night...
