Hanaketi dressed and waited for Yuki to arrive as she usually did, there was a knock to the door and Yuki entered,
"You're up early as usual." She smiled,
"Yeah, you could say that. We're gonna be busy tonight aren't we, it being the night before Valentine's Day?" Hanaketi asked,
"Most likely, are you up for class today?" Yuki asked,
"Yeah, I've had enough time off; it's about time I got back there." Hanaketi replied,
"Alright let's get breakfast and get going." Yuki replied the two girls joined Zero at breakfast in the Headmaster's office.
"Ah Hana, how did you sleep?" Headmaster Cross asked,
"I didn't," Hanaketi replied,
"Ah still troubled then?" He asked,
"You could say that, I'm still unsure at how competent my relatives are," Hanaketi replied,
"And still so cold towards them even after all that's happened,"
"Do you really expect to change now that they're dead?" Hanaketi snapped, "If things were different I wouldn't be sat here right now." She sighed,
"That's what's upsetting you... It's their Funeral today right?"
"Yeah they aren't being buried yet though, Ketsu said the bodies will be buried in a few of days, he's still trying to get me to go back before they're buried..."
"Are you sure you don't want to?"Yuki asked,
"Yeah, I decided the minute I heard I wouldn't say good bye." Hanaketi replied, "I'm finished I have a few things to do before class, I'll meet you two there." She said leaving the room and heading back to her own. Her phone flicked and said she had two missed calls she put in on her desk and pulled her gloves on before clipping a pure red rose to her hair. She sighed and then headed for class.
That evening the three fought off girls trying to give Valentine's Day chocolates early. Zero caught one of the girls trying after she fell from the wall. Hanaketi was keeping the girls back just by staring at them aggressively, the vampires came out of the gate Hanaketi made no signs of noticing them walk past,
"Thanks for all your hard work Hana." A voice said from behind her, she spun round slapping Akatsuki in the face; the other girls gasped not knowing what had happened.
"Kain! You'd be better off not Provoking Miss Sueki." Kaname warned, Akatsuki smiled and walked off, leaving Hanaketi in a worse mood.
"Everyone back to you dorms!" She yelled forcefully most of the girls made a run for it. Hanaketi sighed,
"Hana, are you alright?" Yuki asked,
"It's nothing; I'm just not in the best of moods today." Hanaketi replied,
"You still haven't gotten any sleep yet; you really need to rest a little at least." Yuki stated,
"Maybe tomorrow, right now I'm too pissed off to get any sleep." Hanaketi replied. She headed a different way to the others for her patrol, "Stupid holiday, stupid parents..." She grumbled to herself, "I'd rather pay no part in tomorrow then have to stand and watch all those love-sick fools giving out their chocolates." She said angrily, her fist hit the wall blocking off the Night class dorms from the rest of school full force, she cringed slightly before putting her gloved hand to her side, and she sighed and moved on.
Later she returned to her dorm she knew her hand was bleeding so she couldn't remove her glove, "At least it wasn't like I wanted any sleep tonight." She sighed, sitting on her bed leaning on her pillow. Yuki came in to check on her, "Hana, you really should sleep but you shouldn't keep your gloves on." She said approaching her,
"I can't take them off, I hurt my hand while I was out and I'm bleeding." Hanaketi replied,
"You had your gloves on the whole time time right?" Yuki asked,
"Yeah, no one should've been able to smell my blood."
"Here, I'll clean it up for you, in the Headmaster's bathroom." Yuki said taking her into the Bathroom Zero was there,
"What are you two doing in here?" Zero asked Hanaketi raised her gloved hand.
"Hana hurt her hand while I was out it needs cleaning or it's going to get infected," Yuki said taking Hanaketi's glove off Blood covered her knuckles,
"Hana, what exactly did you do?!" Yuki asked,
"I might have punched the wall when I was really mad..." Hanaketi replied quietly,
"This might sting a little." Yuki said putting Hanaketi's hand under the cold water and cleaning the wound, Hanaketi grabbed some bandages from the first aid box and wrapped her hand,
"Thanks Yuki but I'll be fine. I'm going to head back to my room to relax before the sun comes up." Hanaketi replied leaving and grabbing her glove before returning to her room.
The next evening all the girls were lined up waiting for the Night class to arrive.
Hanaketi hadn't put her gloves on yet so her bandaged hand was showing.
Yuki did a speech and the Vampire spread out to collect chocolates, "Hana, I see you hurt your hand, was it your blood we smelt last night?" Akatsuki asked from behind Hanaketi, she rapidly turned around.
"It's likely. I don't see anyone else here with a blooded bandage." Hanaketi replied,
"What happened? I did hear a loud crash I don't suppose that and your hand were connected." Akatsuki asked,
"I punched the wall blocking off the Night Class Dorms." Hanaketi replied, "Now get back to your line or would you like me to punch you as well?" Akatsuki smiled and walked off,
"Damn that guy always pisses me off." She muttered to herself watching the girls and Vampire mingling. When the Vampires were leaving she saw Zero throw a box at him that Yuki had dropped. She approached Zero and Yuki when Takuma from the Night Class caught up to her first,
"Kaname-Sempai said he received a gift for you in the mail, and wanted me to get you so you could retrieve it." He stated,
"Why would Kaname-Sempai get MY mail?" Hanaketi asked,
"I'm not exactly sure," Takuma replied,
"Fine lead the way. I'm curious to know what this gift is." Hanaketi replied following him to where Kaname was,
"Ah, this came in the mail for you this morning, I'm not sure why I got it instead of Headmaster Cross, but it was sent here." Kaname stated handing her a letter with two boxes. Hanaketi read the name it was addressed to, and her eyes widened. "T...this isn't possible. I'm going to have to excuse myself, this seems urgent." Hanaketi stated leaving the dorm and running past Zero and Yuki,
"Hana?! What's wrong?!" Yuki asked, Hanaketi didn't stop she sat on her bed and opened the letter.
'Dear Radiant Flower of the Sueki Clan,
I'd like to say firstly I was never going to target Ketsu. Next along with this letter is two items, one is a gift from your mother the other is a gift from me, I doubt you'll eat them, I'm telling you now they aren't poisoned, and they aren't a form of revenge.
Now if you're reading this I presume you must have killed me, but I have a story to tell you whether you believe it is up to you.
I never killed your parents, this first death was unfortunate but had nothing to do with me, I met with your mother and father on numerous occasions before their deaths, I was there when your mother died, and I hold myself responsible for her death even though I didn't kill her, the Vampire who killed your father returned to kill your mother while I was with her I failed to protect her so I still believe it's my fault. Your mother said some things to me that I refused to accept they trusted me like family and wanted me to become a part of the family, with you. I wouldn't have it, a marriage between a Vampire and a Human will only result in one of us dying. I turned her down but I never stopped loving you. That's why I needed you to kill me. I left my DNA on both of the bodies knowing they'd take those results, after you mother died I personally took care of the Vampire who killed her, for proof check the neck wounds on both bodies my DNA isn't there but his is.
The gift from your mother was given to me in her last moments she wanted you to get it but knew you wouldn't unless I gave it to you. I left the letter to make sure you'd come I knew you'd do anything to protect the others.
Thank you for crying in front of me, you couldn't have given me a better gift.
Love Rasaiath, the Vampire you slayed last.'
