*Zero's POV*

I was about to say we should head back to the dorms but when I looked over to Risu, she was sound asleep. I got up and headed to the headmaster's office to tell him what happened. "I know. Kaname told me." Cross said as I walked in. "Ok… I'm gonna go out there and keep watch." I said. As I was about to leave, I was stopped by Kaname. "What do you want leech?" I said. "You know, she's changing right? She doesn't know what she is. I hope you're prepared." He said as he walked away. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN!" I yelled as he ignored me. I went to my dorm and got blankets. When I went back to the stables, Risu was curled against Kurami wrapped in her hair. I covered her with one of the blankets as I sat next to her. I laid back and Mayonaka jumped on me and curled up. As I was about to doze off, Risu turned and curled to me. 'It's like they're in sync with each other.' I thought. I then went to sleep.

*My POV*

I felt the warmth of the sun as it started to rise. I woke up and saw the mess from the night before. I started to get water and food for Kurami so she didn't have to get up to feed. I checked her bandages and then started to clean the blood and ash off the barn floor. "…Risu… what are you doing?' Zero asked waking up. "I'm cleaning. The owner will be here soon. It's too much of a mess to leave." I answered starting to change the hay. "Let me do that… you should go wash, you're covered in blood." Zero said taking over. "By the way… nice outfit." He said chuckling to himself. I then realized I was in my shorts and bra. "Well sorry… I didn't know there was gonna be blood." I said smiling and walking away. "oh… thanks for the blanket." I said. "Yep." Zero replied as he was checking on Lilly and washing the blood off her and Kurami.

*Zero POV*

I watched as Risu walked away. 'I wonder if I should tell her what Kaname said… that leech.' I thought. I finished washing and brushing Lilly and Kurami when the owner came in. "What happened?" he asked looking at the bandages on Kurami. "She was attacked by wolves. Risu got me… we helped her but she may not be able to be ridden for a while." I explained. "What about the foul?" He asked concerned. "Risu would be able to tell you more about that. She is getting ready for class though." "ok. You should get going too. I'll take over from here." He said. "Sure thing." I picked up the blankets and went to get ready for class.

*My POV*

I went to my room and took a shower to wash the blood off me. When I got out I got ready for class. I was gonna be late anyway so I took my time. When I was walking to class I met up with Zero. "What did you tell the owner?" I asked. "That Kurami was attacked by wolves. He was asking about the foul…" Zero said. "Well you can't really tell until she gives birth. It will most likely be a still birth however." I finished as we reached the classroom door. We both walked in.

"Well nice of you to finally join us… Risu and Zero." Yagari sensei said as we took our seats. "There was a problem at the stables last night." Zero explained. "So that made you late this morning?" Yagari questioned. "Yes it did! Is there a problem?" I snapped. "No… no problem." Yagari said at my sudden attitude. The door opened. "By the way, we have a new assistant for the school. Please introduce yourself." Yagari said. "Good morning class. My name is Hokoru Musuko." He said wickedly smiling at me.

*Zero POV*

"…My name is Hokoru Musuko." As the new assistant introduced himself. I looked at Risu and see that she is terrified. This thing was her brother. Great. She got up and ran out of class. "I'll go fetch her." Hokoru said. "NO! I'll get her. As part of the disciplinary committee it is my job to make sure others are in class." I said walking out.

*My POV*

I got up and ran out of class and into the Headmaster's office. "Oh Risu… Just the person I wanted to see. The new assistant Yagari hired is sharing your room…" He started to explain why but I cut him off. "ARE YOU NUTTS!" I yelled at him. He looked at me confused. Zero walked in. "You know that the 'new assistant' is her brother right?" Zero asked the headmaster. "No… I had no clue. Yagari hired him. There's no other place to put him…" headmaster said. "Why didn't you suggest my room?" Zero asked. "He told me he didn't get along with other males…" Headmaster said. "AND THAT DIDN'T STRIKE YOU AS WEIRD!" I screamed. "Risu… There is nowhere else to put him…" Cross was starting to say. "NO! Bullshit! I'm not sleeping in the same room as him." I said walking out of the room. "Mayonaka what say you to some hard alcohol?" I said as I started walking to town with Mayonaka.
