I don't own Vampire Knight

No flames please, and the Idea for this story came from Kevin the Seagull


Chapter 7

The Kuran Mansion, Rido, Ichiru and Haruka

"Rido, how's Ichiru?" Haruka leant on the door frame that lead into Ichiru's room. Rido didn't turn from his place on the bed to face him, all his attention was on his youngest son. Who had been bed bound for the last couple of days.

"Why?" Rido turned to Haruka, his heterochromatic eyes had a red rim around then indicating he had been crying, but his tears had long since ran out.

"First my sister and my wife, then my only daughter and know Ichiru" Haruka walked to where Rido was sitting. Haruka gazed at Ichiru, as the days passed he just seemed to deteriorate. Haruka guessed that he had a week at most to live, unless by some miracle Zero was alive and made it home before then.

"I…I don't think I can take anymore Haruka, if I lose Ichiru, please take care of Senri for me" Rido looked dead all the life that his children brought him was gone. Rido could no longer be in the world where all his beloved family weren't in it.

"Rido! You can't possibly say that what about Senri, how would I tell him that his father abandoned him just like his mother when he was 5 years old" Haruka was getting angry, he would not let him take the easy way out like his wife.

Rido was about to retort when a small broken voice of the sick boy on the bed stole their attention. Ichiru had his eyes open facing the left side of the wall. Rido and Haruka lent closer to the boy.

"Ze…ro…Zer…o…Zero" Ichiru's voice seemed to get stronger, he started to move, trying to get out of the bed, but Haruka and Rido kept him pinned down to it, but that just made him struggle harder, till he fell off the bed onto the floor.

"Ichiru!" both Haruka and Rido yelled, where had Ichiru gotten this strength from it just came out of nowhere. But when Ichiru started to crawl towards the door Rido had enough and picked his son up.

Only to drop him when his son slammed his elbow in his face, causing his noes to gush out blood. Ichiru took his chance and started to crawl down the hallway that leads to the living room and the entryway.

The Kuran Mansion, Kaname and Senri

When the boys were out side of the room Senri pushed Kaname in, he checks to see if anyone saw them before shutting and locking the door.

"Senri what the hell!" Kaname exclaimed, something was up with his cousin he noticed it when the bashed into each other, when Yuki turned up he acted strange.

"Kaname, can you tell me what happened to your mother?" Senri knew that it was a sensitive subject to him, but he just had to know that what he was told was not the truth.

"Why would you bring this up" Kaname couldn't believe what his cousin asked of him. it hurt, he had loved his mother but when he was 7 and Yuki was 2 it had all changed.

"you know my Mother left us just after Zero and Ichiru were born she never cared for us" Senri looked up at his older cousin, this was going to either change his perspective on his mother or fuel the fire that is his hatred for her.

"well that was not the truth it seems" Kaname just looked at his cousin with scepticism, his father had never told a lie to them before, Kaname was sure that the man couldn't even lie to save his life.

"well with aunt Juri, it seems she never left" Senri stared at Kaname watching as his auburn eyes widen when he processed what he was told.

"what!?" Kaname had trouble believing his cousin but he trusted him, he would never stir him wrong as he has never done it before, but he still needed proof.

"What proof do you have?" Senri looked around and went to the door opening it and making sure no one was listening in on his conversation with Kaname. But when he closed it again. a loud shout of "Ichiru" and a thump was heard coming from Ichiru's room.

Both Kaname and Senri went to the hallway to see Ichiru turn the corner using the wall as support whispering for his lost sister.

The Kuran Mansion, Front door

"do you know her?" Yagari question the pureblood in front of him, Yuki said nothing, she quickly can to her senses, she walked forward and looked at Zero. Yuki noticed that something was wrong.

"No, I don't, sorry" Yuki faked not knowing who she was, she couldn't scream at them that she was the one to send the Level E after her as it would attract the attention from the rest of the family.

That was the one thing she didn't want them to know, that Zero was back. Maybe these hunters will take her away from them forever and she can finally get Kaname to focus on her and only her.

She watched as Zero become saddened, the blond hunter went to comfort her, but the other just watched her with narrowed eyes.

Zero walked up to her and went to grab her hand but froze, instead she bowed. she stepped back from her till she was next to the hunters that saved her life.

"thank you for your help, we're sorry to disturb you" Zero said, she didn't know, but she felt something from the girl in front of her, it told her to trust her, but another part said to run.

Kaien put his hand on her shoulder and lead her back to the car, Zero took one last look at the mansion before ducking into the vehicle, Kaien closed the door behind her.

The Hunters Car

"I'm sorry to get your hopes up" Kaien turned to look at the upset girl in the backseat, Yagari was the one driving, he didn't trust Kaien and his lead foot. Kaien looked at Zero and smiled, he couldn't place it put she looked like someone he had seen before, but he didn't know any purebloods.

"you know, we have to call you something, we can't just keep say hey you or little pureblood" at that comment Zero glared at him, if they weren't in a car she would totally kick him in the face.

"I'm not little" Zero growled, yes, she was not as tall as them, but she was tall for her age, at least she thought she was. Well she was certainly taller than the other pureblood they just met, they can't be that much of a difference in their age.

"I know we'll call you Tsukiko it means moon child" Zero scrunched her face. Did he have to refer to her heritage of being a pureblood vampire.

"don't like that, well what about Miyako, beautiful night child" Yagari scoffed from the driver seat, he could only take Kaien attitude for so long.

"Can you be anymore obvious with a name, just prick name it's not that hard" he started to play with the radio trying to find a good radio station, after frustrating attempts he gave up, and reached for a cigarette instead. Kaien went to suggest another name, but Yagari turned sharply at him

"Not Yuki, there is enough girls out their called that, and I hate that name" Yagari sneered, Kaien looked offended, because he had told the man that if he ever had a child he would call them Yuki.

"Yuki is a beautiful name" Kaien started to rant on how Yagari could never know a good name even if it smacked him in the face.

Unknown to the two, Zero was struck with a sudden pain, it felt like her head was splitting in to

"My name is Zero!" "You don't have to help with these suitcases Zero" 'Zero! get off my fiancé!' ''Zero!'' the multiple voices echoed in her head, they were on repeat.

"Zero" she whispered that was it her name, the echo of pain followed when a pair of caring auburn eyes flashed in her head.

"my name is Zero" she started to laugh she finally knew her name, the laughter gained the attention of the males up front

"hey kid, something funny" Yagari turned to her, patting the ash the on the edge of the window, Zero beamed at him.

"my name is Zero" if she wasn't confined to the car she would be dancing, or at least jumping for joy she finally knew a part of herself.

"that's wonderful you remembered your name" Kaien went to embrace her, but remembered they were in a moving car when he nearly chocked himself with the seat belt.


Sorry it took so long, for the last few months I've had a lot of family drama and I was supposed to move but well more family drama prevented that as well.
