Hi there! Before the story I just wanted to answer a question about Mia really fast. A guest user asked if Mia could change her form (Wolf and werewolf) without the use of the moon. The answer is she can due to the fact she is a bit more wolf than the normal bitten or bred werewolves. I will go into more detail on that later, for now, ENJOY!

No matter what answer I came up with, the outcome was never good. I knew the association hand a reputation for killing vampires, but what wold they do to a werewolf? One as powerful as me at that. I wasn't just a bitten wolf like most, I was born a half breed as well. Different on all angles yet the same on most others.

I looked into the eyes of the man asking the questions to see if I could get a read on what he wanted and why. But the gray color didn't give anything away, just the cold calculation of what he saw in front of him. Giving a sigh, I knew I had no other choice.

"I...am a werewolf...On my father's side." I said, a chorus of whispers echoes through the room. The room was silenced by a wave of the man's hand as he stared me down. "Thank you for being honest. But what makes you different? We have had our fare share of werewolf kind in the past but, with you there seems to be many things out of the ordinary." He passed me many pictures of my time practicing changing forms and fighting my father as a wolf and a werewolf.

I held my breath before looking back to the man with my own gaze of steel. "I was also bitten on a full moon. Guess the wolf just soaked up the power and made me stronger than the others." I growled, getting over my nervousness and just getting angry. One of the members in the back stood up and spoke. "I don't see why she would be a threat, she's living with not one or two hunters but, three of our most powerful hunters that could bring down pure bloods." He said, waving a hand at Toga, Zero and Kaien Cross.

Murmurs rolled around the room as the man up front looked me over one last time before closing his eyes. "Very well, any decision of her life will be decided by those hunters. Any wrong move she makes away from them and her life is forfeit." He slammed the pal of his hand on the table and stood, glaring at me with hatred before standing and leaving the room.

I let out a breath and looked at the three that held my life, not that they would take it or anything. Getting up from my seat, the man who practically saved my life came down to speak with me. "I deeply apologize for Jaden, he tends to hate anything that isn't human." He said, shaking my hand with a small smile. I nodded as he turned to leave, though he gave me a warning. "I wouldn't test anyone from this room, Miss Mia. Some are not as caring as the hunters you have grown close to."

*Back at the chairman's house*

I was in a fluffy pair of pants and a tank top watching a random show on the TV after the ordeal with the association. Zero was in the shower and Toga has been talking with Kaien in his office. I didn't know where my mother went but she might have just gone to bed. with nothing else to do, I flopped to my side and put my legs over the back of the couch. Then I ever so slowly slid over so that my head was almost touching the floor. Now I was able to watch the TV upside down, and it was interesting.

Until a certain someone decided to flip my legs over and have me face plant into the ground and topple over to my stomach. "You can end up in the strangest positions when you're bored." The voice of Zero called from above. I just mumbled out a few things he wouldn't be able to make out and struggled to get up.

Back on the couch, Zero pulled out a brush and I was up and running before he could reach for me. I don't know about you, but brushing my hair rarely turns out to be fun. My hair is a tornadoes work of wild and wolverine fur thick. Trust me, my scalp never enjoys a brushing. Too bad Zero new my best hiding places, like under my bed, in a closet, on top of the china cabinet or, if I have time, on top of the roof. I was on the china cabinet this time and was drug down and placed back on the couch.

All I could do was keep a brave face as the tugging torture began once again. Though it was significantly shorter this time as the brush broke and got stuck in the mess of hair. "Why don't you just get it cut?" Zero huffed, doing his best to free the poor brush from it's confines. "Cause I like it long...But I guess for management sake, I could get it shorter." I mumbled, thinking back to the last time my hair was forcefully chopped off. I didn't have too many friends growing up, just people that didn't like that I was so different.

"If it makes you feel better, I'll cut it instead of taking you to someone you don't trust?" The hunter offered, finally releasing the broken come from it's hairy prison. I thought it over a few minutes more before nodding slowly. Zero got up and took me to the kitchen where he pulled out a pair of scissors and a chair for me to sit on. "I promise I wont cut it too short." He said as I took my seat and let him clean up my messy, wild black hair.

I had closed my eyes when Zero started cutting at my hair. I knew he wasn't doing this to bully me, but the memories of my school days always came back at times like this. The hair fell onto my lap and shoulders as he trimmed around my face, I couldn't imagine how much would be on the floor. Zero ran his hands through my hair a few times before saying he was done. I opened my eyes and saw the mountains of hair surrounding me, guess I really did need a hair cut.

Walking to thee bathroom, I noticed how light and airy my hair felt. It wasn't heavy and, well, messy feeling. I looked into the mirror and took a moment to realize it was me looking back. My hair was now a wavy style cut right at my shoulders, Zero even gave me some bangs to hide a scar above my eyebrow. I gave a smile to myself and felt the soft locks, feeling the hair slide through my fingers without the rough matting I had before.

My favorite silver haired male walked in and I gave him a smile. "You would do well as a hair stylist." I commented, looking away from the mirror and to the boy's violet eyes. "I only cut my girlfriends hair." He smirked, causing me to blush deeply. He chuckled and pulled me into a hug. "I'm glad you trust me so much." I heard him whisper as I wrapped my arms around his waist, letting out a small hum of happiness.

Back on the couch, Uncle Toga and the Chairman came around and saw my new hair cut. (Though honestly, who wouldn't be able to tell?) "My adorable Mia looks even cuter!" Swooned the motherly man as Toga picked at my hair. "She looked more like me when it was a mess." He said, a little bit of a pout in his voice was evident. I giggled and looked up at my Uncle. "I still have your eyes though." I smiled, Toga just scoffed and ruffled my hair in return.

After a few moments in light conversation, my mother decided to join us from wherever she had been. "Awe, my baby got herself a haircut." She cooed, stroking my soft hair with a loving smile. "It looks beautiful on you." She sat beside her brother on the arm of his seat while we all watched whatever was on the television at the time. Seemed like this Supernatural show spiked Zero's interest when they decapitated a vampire. Personally I thought Dean was a wonderful character while my mother was drooling over Sam. Uncle Toga simply gripped abut it bein so fake and the Chairman just sat quietly while biting his shawl in anticipation to what would happen next.

Before too long, I was drifting off into dream land while snuggled up to Zero as he continued to watch Supernatural. He really loved this show. I was just about to enter the world of black before a loud pounding at the door startled everyone in the house. I was up and wide eyed in seconds as Zero wiggled out from the couch and to the window to see who was there. "What are they doing here." I heard him growl as he stomped over to the door and swung it open.

"Is Mia at home?" A voice I didn't recognize asked as I slipped from my seat to the door. "What do you want to see her for?" Zero asked in his pissed off voice. "We just need to speak with her on a private matter. It won't take but a moment." The man said and I peeked around the corner to see who was doing the talking. It was obviously one of the associations people, but not one from my case. "What do you need?" I asked, stepping from my spot and walking up just behind Zero.

"Hello, Miss Mia. I am Garner from the research and development department, I have recently heard of your breeding and you like to draw some blood for testing, it may help us gain a better understanding of creatures that are none human and ex-human." The man said with an obviously fake smile that I sneered at. "Sorry, but I don't like the thought of being a pincushion." I grumbled, slowly backing away from the man as he started to dig though a bag he held. "Oh, I am sorry. But it would seem that you have no choice, you see. I have a slip of paper ordering your hunter friends to get what I need, and you don't have to be willing to give blood."

A shiver ran down my spine as Zero scanned the paper, all the while that man eyeing me like I was a pastry. I felt someone behind me as Toga snatched the paper from Zero, his eyes narrowing as he read. "I want to just gut that two bit coward and get it over with." He snarled, tossing the paper back at the man as he pulled me away. "I'm sorry Mia, we don't have a choice." My Uncle said, looking into my eyes as he lifted me onto the counter. "It won't take long, just let him get the blood and leave," I grit my teeth and stiffly nodded as the man walked into the kitchen and placed his bag beside me.

Several needles were placed on the counter with a few bags and vials that would soon be holding my blood. "Alright, I will just insert the needle and start collecting that mysterious life blood from you." The man almost laughed as he swabbed the crook of my arm with rubbing alcohol. I eyed the biggest needle that lay in a row of smaller ones and I just knew that would be the one he picked up. Turns out I was right, how I hate that feeling.

"Zero, it might be safer if you left." I heard the Chairman say as the man prepared to jab my arm with the hollow piece of steel. "Right." I heard my boyfriend grumble as the needle was raise to my arm. I held back a sharp yelp as the large needle was shoved into my vein, crimson liquid oozing from the needle and up a clear tube into a bag.

Two bags and five vials later and I was no longer able to stand properly without having the world spin and send me to the floor. Stupid geezer took far too much blood than what could pass as healthy. Toga bandaged my arm and carried me to Zero's room, knowing I would need someone to watch over me while my body recovered from the draining. "I swear the association has a truck load of explaining on Jaden's part." He grumbled, kicking the door to his apprentices room open and dumping me into his arms. "Stay close to her, I'm going to kick some answers out of a few pansies."

Zero held me throughout the night, trying to keep me as warm as possible. Loosing so much blood was quite the experience, shivering my butt off was not. I had learned that I had a fear of needles of any size now thanks to that bozo. But, at least Zero was keeping my mental state intact. "At least it's over with, though I wish I could have done something for you." I heard him say. I wriggled up a little and kissed his nose, a little pink dusting his face in the sparse light. " You do more than enough." I whispered, snuggling back into comfort and slowly drifting off to sleep. Ending one of the most stress filled evenings ever.

A/N: Aright another chapter down! YAY! Until next time!
