I bolted upright, my heart pounding thunderously in my ears. I looked around my room in alarm. I calmed down, it had merely been a nightmare, I tried to remember what happened in it, but all I could remember was pain, suffering. Nothing more. I checked the time on my phone, it was about two in the morning. I had gotten back from my first night of patrols late last night, I couldn't have been asleep very long. I could feel that something terrible was going to happen soon, but what? I didn't have the slightest clue. I decided to remain awake, I wasn't that tired. I showered and dressed. I felt like going and patrolling or saying that's what I was doing. I didn't want to chance being seen or waking anyone, so I exited my room through the window, landing in a nearby tree. I didn't care I was leaving my window open. I jumped from tree to tree, landing gracefully each time. I reached a tree where it was a good distance to any other tree. I wasn't going to jump down yet. I attempted the jump but fell short, hitting the tree but not being able to grab on to anything. All I could do was fall, and wait to hit the ground. Though instead, something, caught me. I looked up to see who it was, and as fate would have it, Kaname was the one who had caught me. I couldn't think of anything to say, on any other occasion I would have been able to think up countless responses, but none came to me, my mind was blank. The silence seemed awkward. I knew I could keep up a sensible conversation if one was started, but I couldn't start one.

"What were you doing?" He asked, great something to go off of. I shifted my thought from the present.

"I couldn't sleep, so I was hoping around." I thought it sounded odd, but it was literally what I was doing. Hopping.

"You shouldn't be wandering around at this hour. It's not safe." He said.

"Can you put me down now? I'm fine." I asked. Kaname carefully set me down on the ground. As far as I knew, there was no one else around. "Tell me." I began. I thought carefully about how to phrase what I wanted to say. "Tell me about my past. I remembered, but I don't fully understand. My first question is, why, if I had my own family, was adopted into a different one instead of just living with my real one?" This seemed to make Kaname a bit uneasy. I didn't care, I wanted to know I felt I had the right.

"Yumi..." Kaname began, cupping my cheek gently in his hand. I pulled away.

"Why can't you just tell me?" I asked, slightly angry.

"Why must you be so persistent?"

"I'm going to find out eventually, but I don't want to wait until then!"

"I'd tell you if I thought you could handle the truth." He said. I didn't know what to say, fear pooled in the pit of my stomach, could there be something truly horrible I wasn't remembering? Could that be why Kaname didn't want to tell me? I became lightheaded, these thoughts ran through my head, many different possibilities popping up and being replaced quickly. The world spun around me, and I fell. Next, came darkness, warm and comforting.

I awoke in a dim room, just as someone was leaving.

"Wait!" I called quickly, I knew who it was leaving the room. They closed the door and walked back over to me, I sat up, looking up at Kaname. "Tell me." I said sternly. Kaname placed a hand on my head, then after a moment walked back to the door and began to leave. "Kaname!" The door closed behind him as he left. I waited a couple moments, wondering if he'd come back, I realized he wouldn't, so I got up and walked over to the window and peered through the curtains to see the sun dipping into the horizon. I studied the room, I recognized it, the room that had been mine when I was in the Night Class. I slipped out of my old room, walking quietly, keeping an eye out for anyone.

"What's a Day Class student doing in the Moon Dorms?" Someone said from behind me. I had to have the worst luck possible. I turned to see who it was, long light brown hair. That was all I needed to know. I was doomed if she recognized me. Right! Excuse, I had to think of an excuse!

"I was uh...just leaving..." I said cautiously, backing slowly away from her.

"What's your rush?" Came a voice from behind me. Why did the voice sound annoyingly familiar? An arm landed on my shoulder, my head turned and I saw someone, blond hair and blue eyes, great. Probably the most annoying person in the entire Night Class, and someone who would kill me if they recognized me, I was so doomed. Aido seemed surprised, I thought about it, and realized all the Day Class girls went crazy over all the Night Class guys. Thankfully they didn't recognize me, if they did, I would have a lot more explaining to do, but then again, I have a lot to do as it stands.

"I'm gonna go now..." I said, breaking the silence and pulling away from Aido's reach. "I have...stuff to do..." I managed to slip away before there could be any protest. I snuck through the front doors, oddly not being spotted, right after the group got outside, I bolted out, running. I made it to the gate about two minutes before it opened, seeing as how I stopped by my dorm room to grab my katana (just in case). When I arrived with my katana, it was silence. They must have good memories. "I'm glad we have an understanding." I said proudly. I tried to blend into the crowd a little, so I couldn't easily be spotted by Aido or Ruka, seeing them once today was plenty. As the group drifted through, Kaname stalled as he passed me, just enough where only I could notice, however impossible that may seem. The Night Class was gone and the crowd dispersed, remaining in whispers out of fear. Clouds were gathered overhead and something began falling from the sky, snow. It was snowing. Excited murmurs ran through the crowd, usually I too would have been excited, but for some reason, I felt that with the first snowfall and coming of the holidays, dread would come along with it, all tied up with string.

For the next week, nothing of true interest occurred. The winter holidays came around, and we were granted some vacation time to do as we please, I'm not one for celebration, but it would be nice to visit home over the vacation. So I decided to surprise my parents and show up, I caught a train and in a couple hours arrived at home, it was the house I had grown up it, my parents loved this house and we were happy here, so we never moved. I walked up to the front door with the things I'd packed, and rang the doorbell. I waited a few minutes, and nothing. I noticed the door was open a crack, it wasn't like them to leave the door open, I set my stuff down and pushed open the door all the way. What I saw next stunned me, blood was splattered on the walls, on the ground lay my parents mangled bodies, I couldn't distinguish the messes, it was just blood soaked flesh, everywhere. Things had toppled over, glass, shattered, pictures lay on the ground, also soaked in blood. Everything was drenched in either the stench of death, or blood, it was suffocating. I staggered backward in horror and disgust, running into someone. I quickly looked up over my shoulder, I saw a familiar person standing behind me, I relaxed a bit, it was Kaname. I didn't know why but my eyes were drawn back to the gory scene in my house.

"There's...so much...blood." The large amount of blood before me didn't make me crave blood, but it agitated me. I wanted to run, but I couldn't, I couldn't look away from the mess. Kaname placed his hand over my eyes, preventing me from looking any more. I felt thankful to him for that. I heard the front door close and Kaname lifted his hand from over my eyes.

"You should go back to the academy, I'll take care of things here." Kaname said, I turned around to face him.

"No!" I protested, shaking my head. I didn't want to be left alone. I knew it must have seemed selfish of me, I knew it was, but right now I hardly cared. Kaname hugged me close to him, I could feel the heat emanating from my cheeks.

"Alright." He said softly, it comforted me knowing I wasn't going to be alone. I had a feeling this wasn't simply some freak accident, someone attacked my house that I had lived at four my nearly my entire life. I could feel it, someone was trying, to kill me. They must have anticipated me coming home for the holidays, but they struck too soon. I wondered if Kaname knew too. I looked up at him, he seemed distracted, that gave me my answer. Kaname released me from the embrace. "We should go now." He said and grabbed my suitcase.

"Th-thank you." The streets were empty, only a couple cars or people would occasionally pass by but Kaname still made sure I stayed close to him. We reached the train station with no trouble, there were a couple people already on the train so Kaname brought us to seats in an empty cabin. Kaname closed all the shades of the windows, I thought he was being a little paranoid, but I didn't say anything. I sat on the inside seat and Kaname sat next to me. Boring time passed, and I realized the excitement of the day had made me quite tired, so I ended up drifting off to sleep.

"Yumi." Kaname's gentle voice said, waking me, I opened my eyes and realized I had been sleeping with my head resting on Kaname's shoulder. I sat up quickly, embarrassed. He didn't seem affected by it in the least. "We shall be getting off the train soon." He added. I nodded and sat silently, staring at the shade that remained covering the window, I wondered what things were going by outside. It had to be approaching the early hours of evening, I thought about what I had seen not long before, the scene was stained into my mind, I would never be able to forget it. It scarred me. I felt a hand on my back and my head whipped around, I relaxed, it was Kaname. "Are you alright?" He asked. He must have noticed that I was a bit upset.

"Oh, I'm fine." I assured him. The train lurched to a stop, I got up slowly, my legs a little numb from all the sitting.

We got back to the academy and I didn't know what would happen next. Should I go back to the Sun Dorms and act as if nothing happened? Would Kaname ask me to transfer back into the Night Class? I couldn't just weave between the classes, people would get suspicious, and people would begin questioning, and they might even try to transfer into the Night Class. If I went back to the Night Class, would I still be a guardian? No, it wouldn't be logical, the guardians are there to protect the Night Class's secret, so it would be stupid to have a Night Class student be a guardian.

"What now?" I asked as we were walking. Kaname looked at me.

"I could arrange for you to come back to the Night Class...If that is what you wish." It tore at me, should I go back to the Night Class, or stay in the Day Class? Both have their ups and downs, in the Day Class, I don't belong and I have to go out in the sunlight every day and be among humans. In the Night Class, I am with my own kind, there is never homework, I get to sleep during the day, and I'm closer to Kaname. Returning to the Night Class seemed to be the obvious choice but I couldn't make the decision final.

"I want to attend the...Night Class." I said quietly. It was final now, there was no going back. Though, why would I want to continue attending the Day Class? There was nothing good there for me anyway, just a bunch of humans, scared to death of me. I could still use that to my advantage though, so I would have to keep that in the back of my mind.

"Alright." He said. We reached just outside the Moon Dorms.

"I'll go get my stuff from my room in the Sun Dorm." I said.

"Be careful." He told me, cupping my cheek in his hand. I placed one of my hands over his.

"Right." I said with a nod, and took off running. I reached the Sun Dorm and dashed up to my room, attempting to be quiet, though the dorms would probably be near empty with all the Fangirls swarming to see the Night Class students. I reached my room and carelessly packed my things, stuffing clothes in any empty bag, it worked. After I was sure I had everything, I ran back to the Moon Dorms. When I got there, Kaname was no longer standing outside, my bag was gone too. Maybe he took my things to my room. So I went inside the dorm, it was empty, my footsteps echoed on the wooden floors as I walked quickly. I reached my room, and my bag was sitting on my floor and I didn't see Kaname. I set my things down, had he gone to take care of the paperwork? I looked around my room, it seemed so familiar, yet so alien. I sat down on my bed, I felt so lost now without Kaname, it seemed pitiful. He leaves for a couple minutes and I no longer know what to do. I thought about the reality of things, I understood now, I had no one anymore, the only one left, was Kaname. If he left me, I would be alone in the world, I buried my face in my hands, no, I didn't want that to happen. I closed my eyes and began to cry, I could't believe what had happened and that I was this close to being so alone. I dried my eyes with my sleeve, I had to stop my crying, it would make Kaname worry. I pulled off my shoes and set them on the floor, even though I'd slept on the train, I was still tired. I got up and shut my door, then I got into bed, falling asleep almost instantly.

So much...blood...everywhere... Blood splattered on the walls, dried on the hardwood floor, random flesh, soaked in blood... So much fear, pain, suffering... Their screams, echoed through the halls, their screams of terror and pain. Their repeated cries for help, no one heard them. No one knew. It was terrifying.

I woke up screaming. My scream died out but my terror remained, my door burst open, it was Kaname, he looked worried. He quickly walked over to me.

"Are you okay?" I searched for my voice but I couldn't find it, but my eyes must have done an adequate job of answering. Kaname embraced me, and barely touched the back of my head, I knew what he was doing, I didn't care. My mind was blurred, confused, I was terrified and half dazed, I couldn't find the will to care, even if I could, I still wouldn't. Darkness consumed me, but it was kind now, nothing terrifying could reach me, at least for the time being.

I woke up, pushed my self up so I was sitting, and stretched a bit while still in bed, I had slept well, I remembered enough, I remembered that Kaname erased a part of my memory because of a nightmare I'd had, but I didn't remember the nightmare. It would probably be better that way for now. Nightmares making me have a lack of sleep on top of everything else wasn't something I wanted to worry about right now. Even without getting up, I could tell that it was sunset, the slowly fading light in the room and the curtains were parted slightly, allowing me to see a sliver of the outside. There was a knock at my door.

"Come in." I said absently. The door slowly opened and I waited patiently for the visitor to enter. Kaname stepped into my room, and shut the door behind him, the sound of it closing barely audible.

"Did you come here to tell me about my past?" I asked, half-joking, running my fingers through my long brown hair. Kaname sighed. "I won't stop asking until you tell me, you know that." Kaname sighed again and sat down beside me.

"Fine, I'll tell you. I don't know everything, since I wasn't told much and didn't listen in to their conversations, but I know the basics of things." He began. He paused a moment, waiting to see if I might interject. Seeing I was just going to sit and listen intently, he continued. "Your parents were hunters." He paused again, this time only a moment. "They had a child, you. The thing is, you greatly confused your parents." I shot him a questioning look. "Yumi, you were born a vampire." I sat there in shock, absorbing the information. "The even stranger thing is this, later, your parents from observation, discovered you weren't just a vampire born of two hunters, but a pureblood." One of my hands shot up and covered my mouth, I was speechless. Then, a grin spread across my face, I was smiling. It wasn't a case where I was smiling out of a random emotion and didn't know what to do. No, I was truly happy. Even though it took me a moment to fully realize it. I had been born...a Pureblood. How wonderful it seemed. I was the highest class of vampire, even though it didn't even seem possible, it shouldn't be. Two hunters have a child, what should the child be? Just like the parents. But no, I defied all logic and sense. My hand moved from covering my mouth and I began laughing, a demented, crazy laugh. For absolutely no reason. Kaname gripped both my shoulders. "Are you alright?" I stopped laughing for a mere moment, I looked at him with the crazed look in my eyes and the crazy grin still on my face. Then I saw it, for only a moment though. I saw fear, in his eyes. He was scared, even if it was only a brief moment. That made me stop laughing, stop smiling. I never thought I would be in a position like this, I felt bad. I looked down to the ground. "What's wrong?" Kaname asked, still holding my shoulders gently. I looked up into Kaname's eyes.

"I'm sorry...I-I-" Kaname cupped my cheek in his hand and rested his forehead on mine.

"Don't apologize." He told me. "It makes you look so sad." We just sat there for a while, not moving. I had no idea how long it was, I didn't care. Sitting there, with him, made everything seem alright, I even forgot what he had told me, all I knew in that time, was being there with him. It was so peaceful. Then Kaname suddenly pulled away, it startled me, bringing me out of my daze. "I should go now." He said, beginning to leave. I quickly grabbed his wrist with both my hands.

"No...Don't go!" I pleaded, feeling empty as he threatened to leave.

"Yumi. It's alright." He said.

"No! I don't want you to go!" I shouted, shaking my head and hugging his arm closer to me, thus pulling Kaname closer to me. Kaname embraced me tightly with his free arm.

"Don't worry. I won't let anyone hurt you." His words comforted me, and I released his wrist. He held me a moment longer before he really did leave. I didn't want to allow him to go, but I didn't stop him, I restrained myself. I thought about what Kaname had told me earlier, about how I was a Pureblood. I was tired now, I had found out so much, yet all I could think about was Kaname, and sleep. Although somehow sleep seemed more important at this moment. So I laid down, without any care for the time, and closed my eyes. I let my mind go blank, and my subconscious take over, having free reign over my mind for a few hours at least.

I woke up in my room, it was empty except for me. I got up and looked out my window, it was snowing, blanketing the academy in a beautiful pure white. I showered and changed into my uniform before I even bothered looking at the time, it was six o'clock in the evening. Class would start soon, so I grabbed a volume of my manga, and left my room. On my way to the main room where everyone would probably be.

"Hey! You look like that Day Class girl that showed up here the other day!" I swore violently in my head. Could I just kill him?

"Listening to your voice makes me wish I was deaf." I said coldly, turning to face him. His usual bright blue eyes seemed to flicker as he realized what I had said. His face turned dark.

"Why you-" He growled.

"Aido." Someone said. He snapped out of his mood immediately and we both looked to see who it was. Kaname. We waited in suspense. "Go find me a glass hammer." We both just stood there a moment, doubting the authenticity of his request.

"Yes. Dorm President Kuran." Aido said obediently, disappearing quickly. I watched him as he walked away. "Yumi." My head whipped back to look back to where Kaname still stood.

"Class will be starting soon."

"R-right." I said. I walked down the stairs, joining the crowd. I walked over close to Kaname and he gently pulled me closer to him. I noticed I was getting evil gazes from the majority of the Night Class, I ignored it though. I allowed my head to rest on Kaname's shoulder. It seemed a bit awkward, but I began to get used to it. Many things were different now, yet still completely the same. I felt completely safe where I was, right next to Kaname. We walked to class, I noticed the disciplinary comity members glaring at me, I tried to simply ignore it, but it was difficult, I could feel their stares in the back of my head. They didn't have the right to disapprove of my decisions even if they saw it as betrayal to them. Things change. They should know that. I could always make things a bit interesting, there was no way Yuki remembered she was a pureblood. Not yet at least. I smirked at my evil thought, Kaname looked down at me, studying my eyes, I cleared them of all emotion and stared right back into his eyes. He was the one to look away first, how unlike him. He may hate me for what I was going to do, I didn't care. I was used to being alone.
