Hey so my friend let me borrow her computer today! Hooray so I give you a new chapter! So I am just going to say that I might cut Zero out a lot from now on. Sorry Zero fans. I mean I don't hate Zero and all but he just gives Yuki too much grief in the series and with all the grief I am going to give her, I don't think she would be able to handle the shit that Zero gives. I will also not have him drink from Yuki, those scenes really bothered me. Once again sorry to Zero fans but he will not show up much in my story. Also I plan on finishing the story by the end of break, I am actually almost done but it just needs to be edited. My editor is lazy so they will take a while. She leaves some mistakes as some of you have noticed and I fix those (When I can find them). Hey also can you guys review? I feel that no one likes the story if I only have two reviews from one person. Please tell me what you guys think but no flames. Thank you for your support enjoy.

Chapter 4: Silver Fangs
It was another day at Cross Academy however Zero and I had been asked to go get some supplies for the chairman. We were out in town now and I was starting to get hungry so Zero and I stopped at a cafe for a snack. He orders coffee and I ordered a chocolate parfait.
"Little kid." I heard him mumbled as he sipped his coffee.
Before I could retort a waitress came up and asked, "Excuse me are you students at Cross Academy?" We nodded, and the girl looked at Zero, "Are you by any chance in the night class? Do you know Aido-kun he sometimes comes here for strawberry parfait-"
Before the girl could continue Zero slammed his hands on the table and got up. He exited the cafe leaving the waitress confused. After paying I followed him only to find the stuff he had been carrying on the ground. I ran after him but at some point I got lost and ended up in an unfamiliar part of town.
I had never really liked going into town on my own, it reminded me of that night. I sat on a bench to calm myself when a flash of red passed my vision. I opened my eyes that I had unconsciously closed and saw it had only been a balloon, a red balloon. It had floated into a tree and the boy it belonged to was crying. I jumped up and grabbed the balloon and handed it to him.
He looked up at me and instead of a cute little face I saw the horrifying face of a monster. He bit into my hand but I pulled away quickly and swatted him away with Artemis. I started to run and he chased me. I ran into an abandoned building and by the time I reached the top I was trapped.
The boy, no creature was about to lunge when it stopped and began trembling in fear. I turned around to see why and saw Kaname-senpai was there.
He hugged me from behind and said, "You poor thing, falling into this state. I pity you but the person you have decided to hurt is someone very dear to me." He covered my eyes and a I felt a strong gust of wind. He took his hands away from my eyes and I saw the creature was no longer there.
"Senpai, what was that?" I asked my voice still shaking a bit.
"Level E." He said.
"So he was not a vampire?"
"No he was a vampire but one different from us." He explained.
"Where is Zero?"
"Kiryu-kun has already returned to the dorm, come I shall escort you back." He token me back to the dorm and bandaged up my wound. I remembered I had to patrol so I got dressed and headed out.
Even though night classes had been canceled today I still decided it was best to patrol. It was already late at night by now so I chose to end patrolling for today. One way back in met up with Zero.
"Good work, how is your wound?" He asked.
"Fine, hey Zero about that vampire from today that level E. That was not a vampire that was a monster." I said.
"Stay away!" He shouted.
"Zero are you-" Before I was able to finish the sentence I had a flash, but this one was just an image, of Zero biting me.
Instinctively I grabbed Artemis and he lunged at me. I fell onto the steps and my wound reopened as I fended off Zero. Blood smeared my rod as I struggled to hold him back. His crimson eyes bore into my own, his fangs menacingly protruding from his upper lip.
"S-stop, stop it Zero!" I exclaimed and that snapped him back into reality.
He stopped his and backed up his eye still burning crimson, "Yuki I-"
"What is going on here?" Asked a voice and we both turned to see that Kaname-senpai was coming up the steps.
He took one look at Zero and said, "So you have finally fallen to that state, Zero Kiryu."
He brought me behind him in a protective stance, I remembered that night he rescued me from the E. He is going to kill Zero!
"Kaname-senpai I'm-" Before I could say anything I felt an ear splitting pain in my head. I fell to my knees clutching my head. I don't remember what happened after that but I woke up the next morning in my bed, so I had assumed it was all a dream; until Zero did not show up to class.
Worry took a hold of my mind as possibilities went through my head, finally being unable to take it anymore I walked out of class to go see the chairman. When I arrived at his office is found Zero was also there.
"So what do you think of your new uniform?" The chairman, who had yet to notice me asked Zero as he held up a night class uniform.
"If you think I'm going to join them then you are dead wrong Cross." Zero retorted as he turned to leave then noticing me he stopped.
"Zero-"
"What did Kuran do to you?" He asked in an angry panicky tone.
"What are you talking about l, after I fainted I don't remember anything after that. Now please tell me Zero are you really a vampire no more lies and dodging my questions."
"Kiryu-kun you can go I will answer all of your questions Yuki." Zero left and the chairman looked up from his desk and asked, "what do you want to know?"
"Is Zero really a vampire?"
"Yes but he was originally human until 4 years ago when his family was killed. He was bitten by a Pureblood vampire."
"I have been asking for a while but what exactly is a Pureblood?"
"A Pureblood vampire is a vampire among vampires and are very well respected in the vampire community. They have no human blood in them and are 100% vampire. They have the power to turn humans into vampires when they bite them."
I thought about that for a moment, a vampire among vampires. A vampire that is very well respected in the vampire community. "Is Kaname-senpai a Pureblood?" If it was true then it would explain Zero's deep hatred for him.
"Yes Yuki, Kaname-kun is a Pureblood, however he is a little different. He descends from the Pureblood line of royalty. Vampire society used to have a monarchy until Kaname-kun's grandfather abolished the system and created the Council. Even though the monarchy is no longer in place Kaname-kun is still treated like royalty by most." He stopped for a moment, "I shouldn't say anymore, this is something you should hear from him, not me."
"I understand but please don't move Zero to the night class!" I pleaded.
"That is not for me to Kaname-kun will make the final decision."
Upon hearing those words I ran out of the office, if I asked senpai then maybe he would let Zero stay in the day class. With that thought in mind I ran towards the Moon Dorm. Cautiously I entered the castle like building and saw that there were two men on a couch in front of Aido-senpai.
"Yuki-chan!" Aido-senpai noticing me called out as he began pushing the two men out of the dorm. Once that was done he pulled me in and closed the door, "what are you doing here? Everyone is asleep."
"I am here to see Kaname-senpai."
"Oh you're here to see Kaname-sama, follow me." I started going up the stairs and I followed.
"If it's a problem then I can come back later."
"No, no, you are special to Kaname-sama so it's fine."
"I see," I mumbled as I began blushing a bit, "but I don't think I'm special." I said trying to hide my embarrassment.
He stopped dead in his tracks, "I have been wondering for a while now," he turned to face me and his hand now on the railing. The railing began to freeze on contact with his hand and the ice spread to my feet trapping me where I stood, "Yuki-chan, what are you to Kaname-sama?" He asked in a tone that showed anger.
"Kaname-senpai saved me from a crazy vampire when I was young." I replied trying to stay as calm as possible.
"Oh, something like that happened. I see well then that means your blood belongs to Kaname-sama. One day Kaname-sama's fangs will pierce the skin of your neck and gently drink your blood, I wonder how that would feel? I bet you would be in pure ecstasy. Here's an idea how about you go give him your blood now? If you're to afraid I can freeze you and bring you to him." He begun freezing one of my arms.
"Aido-senpai that is enough!" I shouted and raised my hand to slap him but was stopped.
I turned to see who had stopped me and found it was Kaname-senpai. Aido-senpai was on his knees in an instant.
"Kaname-sama!"
Kaname-senpai backhand slapped his square on the face, "Did I ask for this Aido?" He asked in a seething tone.
"N-no." He replied still trembling.
"Go, I will deal with you later." Aido-senpai retreated back to his room and Kaname-senpai turned to me, "what did you require of me Yuki?" He asked going back to his gentle self.
"Can we talk somewhere more private?" I suggested.
"Very well, come with me." He led me towards the farthest end of the hall.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
He turned his head so that one of his eyes was looking at me, "My room." Those two words made me blush like mad and he smirked.
By the time we reached his room is was as red as a tomato. He opened the door and we went in. He sat on a victorian love seat and I sat in an armchair beside him.
There was a tension filled silence before he asked, "What is it that you wanted of me Yuki?" He asked.
"I wanted to ask senpai a favor. Please don't put Zero in the night class."
"Oh, was that all? Unfortunately Yuki I can not, he is a vampire whether he likes it or not
I can not grant that request even if it is for you my dear girl."
"But it's not Zero's fault-"
"Yuki was thus really the reason you came to see me? Just to ask me to allow Kiryu-kun to stay in the day class with you?" It sounded like he was getting irritated.
"No it's not a matter of wanting him to stay in the day class with me, Zero does not want to be put in the night class. I am doing this for him not myself."
"I see then I will think about it Yuki, but only for you." He said.
"Thank you Kaname-senpai!" I exclaimed as I got up and promptly hugged him. However, realizing what I had just done I started to pull away, but he just held me tighter.
"It makes me feel lonely Yuki, first it was 'sama' and now it's senpai. When will you stop calling me with such formalities?" I looked into his eyes and saw that they really showed loneliness.
"Senpai I-"
"There you go again, I feel as though you are purposely making walls around you. Every time I break one down you put another one up. Now I am facing the highest wall that I can't break through."
"I can't call you by your name like I did as a child."
"And why is that?"
"Because you and I are far too different. I am a human a weak being that will die in a few decades, you are a vampire your kind live for centuries. I will grow old and die while you remain young and live a long life. We are different in every way possible." Tears threatened to fall from my eyes as I was telling him all this. "I should go." I said as I got up and exited his room.
After leaving the Moon Dorm I ran back to my room in tears. When Yori-chan, my roommate, asked where I had been in did not answer. I decided to skip perfect duties since I did not want to face Kaname-senpai. Zero had skipped tons of times before so what was the problem with me skipping once.
That day was the first time I had talked to Kaname-senpai about how I felt. About how I thought he and I were different. I would have never guessed those thoughts would ever be proven false.
