A/N: Well here we go chapter 6 and are you reviewers ready to find out what happens next with Zero and Kaname? Hehe...
Chapter 6
Ivory watched as Ichiru was pulled into a big bear hug by a woman she assumed was his mother. Yagari was right beside her, with his hand on her shoulder.
"Akahanna, this is the young lady who watched over Ichiru during his time in Las Vegas." The woman looked at Ivory and smiled. Obviously Ichiru didn't get his looks from her.
"I'm Akahanna Kiryuu, and if you haven't guessed by now, I am Ichiru's mother." Ichiru pulled out of the hug and looked at his mother.
"Have you found Zero yet?" Akahanna lowered her eyes.
"No. I sure hope you can find him Ichiru." A man who looked like an older version of Ichiru walked in and gave a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness you found him Yagari..." Yagari nodded towards him.
"Ivory this is Yuudai Kiryuu, Ichiru's father." Yuudai looked at Ivory and smiled.
"Hello."
"It's nice to meet you both." Ichiru coughed loudly and everyone looked at him.
"Where was the last place Zero was seen?" Akahanna sighed and pointed upstairs.
"In the room he shared with his partner, Arian." Ichiru narrowed his eyes.
"I would love to meet this Arian." Akahanna and Yuudai exchanged a glance, but before they could say anything Ichiru started going up the stairs.
"Ichiru! Arian doesn't like vampires!"
"I don't care! If he could put up with Zero for four years, he can handle me!" Ivory sighed and rubbed her head. 'I seriously hope that Zero isn't as straight forward as Ichiru is.' Finding the room somehow, Ichiru slammed the door open, only to walk in on some guy making out with a girl.
"Arian?" The guy looked away from the girl he was currently kissing and looked at the door. His face turned red with anger and embarrassment as Yagari, Yuudai, Akahanna, and Ivory appeared behind him.
"Oh so you came back, eh, blood sucker?" Ichiru glared at him and was in front of him in two seconds, holding his neck.
"How dare you talk about Zero in that way!" Arian seemed to pale, before he chuckled darkly.
"So you are his twin that he never gave up on. Heh, you Kiryuu's look the same." Ichiru hissed at him, and Arian continued. "And even the twins of the Kiryuu's are both vampires. What a perfect family." Ivory came forward and grabbed Ichiru's arm.
"Ichiru, that's enough. We need to find Zero." With a hiss, he released Arian's throat and went searching through the room, but Ichiru suddenly froze when the scent of blood reached him. 'Zero...' Running out of the room without saying anything, Ichiru ran.
"ICHIRU! COME BACK!" His mother screamed loudly and Yuudai groaned. 'Come back Ichiru...or else your mother is going to go insane...'
~With Zero~
Zero fell down to his knees as he held onto his throat, the gashes all the way across his throat. Kaname looked down at the vampire and hissed as the pain in his left arm twinged again. 'Damn hunter guns...'
"Zero!" Yuuki ran forward and looked at the wound on his neck, before looking at Kaname.
"Why? Why would you injure him like this?"
"Yuuki, he is a vampire hunter. He-"
"I don't care what he is! Kaname he saved my life! And this is how you repay him?"
"You left him!"
"Don't make it sound like I'm dating him! But he's my friend, and I told you to follow me!" Yuuki's tears felt blistering hot against her cold cheeks right now.
"Lets go home Yuuki." Kaname reached out a hand for her to grab, but she flinched away from him.
"I'll be home in awhile. Someone has to stay with Zero in his last minutes." Rolling his eyes, Kaname stalked off. Only when he was gone did Yuuki pull Zero up, who had fallen all the way onto the ground, into a sitting position and put his mouth near her neck.
"Please Zero..drink." Opening his eyes a little bit, all Zero saw was Yuuki's neck, but he complied with her wishes and bit. The blood of a pureblood entered his mouth quickly and started to drink. After a few minutes he felt his wounds healing and another few minutes later he stopped and looked at Yuuki.
"Why?"
"What?"
"Why did you let me drink your blood?" Yuuki smiled sadly.
"You're my friend...and I..." Not able to continue, Yuuki curled in on herself and started to cry. With a heavy sigh, Zero slowly stood and froze. There standing at the edge of the trees was the one person he had not seen in four long years. Eyes widening only one thought went through his mind, but the same thought was most likely going through the other persons mind as well.
'Ichiru...'
'Zero...'
All right review! I hope you all have a great 4th of July (if you celebrate it of course)! I updated for you and I will be honest, I seriously debated about putting in the scene where it shows how Zero's and Kaname's fight went. And yes I realize I just did yet another cliff hanger on you guys, but you have to admit it is not as bad as the last one I just did. Ok so review please and let me know what you people would like to see in upcoming chapters!
