On Sunday Zero was called to the Vampire Hunter Association. He received a letter from the President a few days before and he was getting ready to visit the Vampire Hunter city. He was about to leave the Academy campus when Yuuki and Kaien Cross stopped him.
"Kiryuu kun! What a second! We prepared lunch for you!" Headmaster Cross was running beside Yuuki, wearing a very cute and girly pinny, holding a small box with food they had prepared early that morning. It was packed in a traditional Japanese style of obento.
"What the…" the silver haired guy had a disapproval face and stopped walking.
"Zero! We figured you would get eventually hungry, so we made prepared some food for you" Yuuki finally reached him.
"Thanks… I guess. I'll be back before night falls" he took the box and saw his watch " I think they just want to ask me some questions"
"We know, we know, but that's not an excuse to skip meals, so here, take it" the older man handed Zero the boy and suddenly changed his expression "take care and whatever happens, use your strength to control yourself. It could save your life" Zero gasped after his adoptive father said that, but he knew very well what he was talking about.
"I just wish we could go with you, but I'm sure you will be fine. Just try to call us before you take the train back, ok?" the girl smiled at Zero. She was worried about him, even if she didn't know the entire reason for it, but she always tried to be positive in times like that.
After that, Zero headed for the train station and started his little trip. The truth was he didn't know what to expect. The letter they sent was so sudden. They usually sent bounty ads for a wild Level E around town, but never a direct invitation for him.
As soon as he entered the building he felt the rough atmosphere of the place; something new for him, since he had always entered the building with his parents, but it was a different experience entering as a vampire. It was like everyone inside could tell what he was and judged him with their glares.
Lucky for him, the President was waiting for him in the main stairs.
"Zero Kiryuu. I'm so happy you are here. I hadn't seen you since you were a little boy"
"Hello there, Mr. President…"
"Come on, kid. Let's go to my office. We have so much to talk about"
They went upstairs, under the heavy glares of the vampire hunters in the place and there was something in the whole situation that made Zero uncomfortable, but he couldn't tell where that was coming from so he kept walking with the President, who babbled about random subjects until they arrived to his office.
"Have a seat, please. So… how's life with all those vampires at school" the President asked casually and Zero felt chills all over his body. He didn't like vampires at all but he couldn't just talk bad about them with the President of the Vampire Hunter Association. Even if he wanted to, there was something very wrong about it; so many implications and consequences it could bring, but at the same time he couldn't lie. Some observers had been there some days ago, and they knew how things were at the academy.
"I can't complain. There's never a dull day in there. I like it" he said trying to look relaxed.
"I'm sure of it, besides, you're in a privileged position, since you are near that pure blood, Kuran Kaname and you can watch his every step" and there it was, the reason why Zero was summoned there.
"In a matter of speaking, yes. But I don't see him that much. We barely speak, and as a school guardian, I get a lot of work. As so does him, being the leader of the vampires there"
"Oh, I see…" he was interrupted when someone entered the office.
"Sir!... I'm very sorry to interrupt, but we have a little situation in the administrative office"
"Is that so?... if you'd excuse me, Zero… I'll be right back… Daiki, please accompany my guest while I fix that problem" the President left the room.
"So, you are Zero Kiryuu… I've heard some things about you" this guy, Daiki was apparently the President's assistant; a young man with short and spiky hair, around Zero's height and upturned nose.
"Good things, I hope…"
"Many things, I couldn't tell apart…" he sat next to Zero and looked at him, studying him with his stare and the silver haired boy tried to ignore him. He didn't like him at all from the moment he saw him "you know, is a big honor to be personally summoned by the President, you should be flattered"
"if you say so…" the talked for a while, the assistant was the one talking mostly, and he did it as he checked some papers he brought along. One of them was a letter, not a particular interesting one, but he took out a small knife; a letter opener and gave Zero a little smirk. Immediately his eyes returned to the envelope and he opened it slowly, with delicate and calculated movements. The little blade reached a small part of his right finger, cutting him and causing a small bleed.
Zero's eyes turned bright red for an instant, but as quickly as it happened, they turned to light purple back and looked at Daiki, who was in vain staring at him expecting any abnormal or vampiric reaction from the silver haired guy.
"You should be more careful" Zero growled and handed him a tissue he got from his jacket.
"I apologize for my clumsiness. Thank you" he cleaned his hand with the tissue and an awkward silence invaded the room "I'll wash it and return it to you later on. I imagine this won't be the last time we met" Daiki smiled, showing malice in his eyes.
Soon after that the President came back and he was left alone with Zero once again. After his return the whole chat as pretty much pointless and not a single important or suspicious subject was touched, he just handed him an order to kill a Level E who had been spotted near Cross Academy and then he left.
On his way home, inside the train he thought about what had happened and the reasons behind that little meeting, smiling to himself for being one step ahead of them.
**Flashback**
A few days before the meeting, at Kaien Cross' office
"I received a letter from the Vampire Hunter association. They want to see me next Sunday, and I don't think is a meet and greet thing. I'm afraid… it is related to what happened when those visitants came" he looked a little disappointed, and he was. He felt like the incident had been a failure to himself and his pride. He almost threw himself at that girl, to take her blood and feed. He had been lucky that someone else stopped him.
"There's a good possibility for that and you need to be prepared. I'm aware of your intolerance for blood tablets and I'm not even going to ask, much less try to guess what you do to keep yourself controlled" the truth was, Headmaster Cross already knew about Kaname's little help, as well as Yuuki's but he didn't want to distress the boy more than he already was "but for your own sake, I think we should…"
"I'm not accepting help from that Kuran monster!" Zero broke the headmaster's desk again, in part because he was tired of relying on the pureblood's aid and because he should, somehow hid the fact of him drinking his blood twice a month to keep himself at bay.
"I figured that much, and I was thinking about something entirely different" Zero was speechless, he didn't know what the headmaster was talking about, but he was willing to try anything that could help him from get into berserk mode so easily "Yes, I had been thinking about it for a while, and now is the perfect time to test it. But I need to speak with Kaname… for practical reasons, wait for me here"
The headmaster left his office, leaving Zero with his thoughts and worries. It was past midnight and Yuuki had already gone to sleep, and as soon as she did he took the opportunity to visit the chairman. He didn't want to bother her with his problems, much less drink any more of her blood. Despite of that being wrong, he enjoyed it every time; being so close to Yuuki was heaven for him, being inside her thoughts and feelings, but when the images of Kaname appeared, his heart immediately overturned and he regretted doing it.
When Kaien Cross finally came back he was smiling and very eager to see if his idea could work.
"So? What's the big idea?"
"I'm afraid it will take a couple minutes, let's have some tea in the meantime" the older man got all he needed to make some teat, hoping to calm the boy's anxiety.
"I can wait for now, but we have to know it works before Sunday" Zero sat in the sofa and loose his necktie.
An hour later a girl from night class opened the door in a hurry, like if her life depended on it.
"Headmaster, I've got what you asked for and… Zero?"
"Rhoslyn?" he looked at the headmaster and understood what was going on "Oh well, it still is the best option"
"Headmaster explained me the situation but I didn't know who was he talking about" she sat next to Zero and put a metal suitcase on the table "at this point, I'm sure you know who I am, right?"
"Sanguinem Corporation…"
"That's right. Headmaster said we needed to feed a vampire urgently, so he wouldn't have the need to feed for some days, so got some concentrated packed blood, but Sir… " she looked at the headmaster "I don't think this is going to…" and Zero interrupted her.
"Where did you get that? Do you actually have packed blood on your dorms?" Zero's face showed some disgust.
"I used to, but then Kaname san grounded us… and by us I mean Aisha and me, and now we're not allowed to drink it inside campus anymore. But… this is a direct request from the Headmaster…"
"Where did you get that?"
"Oh… well, I called my personal assistant in Tokyo and he sent a chopper with everything I needed" she took out a cellphone and showed it
"Those things are not allowed, you know? And you are a prefect…"
"Oh shut up Zero, you want my help or no?" there was silence "That's what I though. Now, the thing is… you, being a… well, not being born as a vampire, I'm not sure it's going to work for more than two days. You guys need a higher amount of blood than we do"
"Don't worry, let's make a test, and check how much he can endure without have the urgency of blood" Kaien Cross was serious but a sparkle of optimism could be heard in his voice.
"If it last a whole day, there's nothing to be worried about, I'll just take it before going with the vamp…." He stopped himself from saying what he was about to and Rhoslyn understood what was going on.
"Let's see how this works, and before you do whatever you have to do, you should have an even more concentrated pack. It could be sent here tomorrow" the vampire girl opened the metal suitcase and gave Zero three bags filled with blood. He looked at them with some disgust and guilt but they were just too attractive for him and immediately his eyes turned red "go ahead"
Zero bit the bag and drank every single drop of blood from each of them, feeling his inner need be at ease and his hunger silent, a sensation that was very similar to the one he got from Kaname's blood, only weaker since his blood was more powerful.
"Because it's human blood, I trust you'll be able to resist temptation" Kaien Cross said serious as he looked at both students "Let's make a test tomorrow night and we'll decide what to do"
The next night, their experiment consisted in cutting the Headmaster's hand in order to see if Zero could resist it. It worked just fine. Zero's eyes turned red, but he was able to control himself with enough confidence, and the night before he left for the Vampire Hunter's association, he had three specially concentrated blood packs so he could resist any trap they could set him in"
**End of flashback**
Zero's smile showed how satisfied he was with their little plan and the road back home was very relaxing because he felt for the first time in a while that he could be around people without the nasty anxiety and need for their blood; feeling human again. But above that, there was still the fact of Daiki and possibly the President of the Vampire Hunter Association testing him, as well as the intentions behind all of it.
On Monday night an announce was made for Night Class students.
"Everyone! Headmaster asked me to tell you something" Ichijo stood in right in the school building entrance and gathered the vampire students before they could leave "As you know, the homecoming party will be this Saturday, and the Headmaster thought that some of you might need some time to make preparations for it, so tomorrow we'll start classes 2 hours later, in case you guys want to go to town and get your outfit or something for the party. The same will apply on Friday. Like today, tutoring sessions will be held normally, on Wednesday and Thursday. Any questions?" he looked around.
"I do!" a male student said "if I want to ask a day class student to go with me, when can I do it? You guys practically don't let us have contact with them….and how are we even supposed to ask them if we barely know them"
"Well, in that case…" Ichijo was speechless for a while but I then the Headmaster appeared in the door and smiled at the students.
"Like it was stated before, your date for the party can be a student from Day Class, and I'm aware of the difficulties to get to know them, so I prepared a special activity for that! It will be a raffle! " all students reacted to the lousy idea, but the headmaster looked rather excited about it "Every Night Class student who wants to attend the homecoming party with someone from the day Class, and hasn't invited anyone yet, should put a paper with his name on a box that will be in your dorm's living room immediately. Another box will be put in the school building tomorrow and in the afternoon the raffle will take place. Great idea, isn't it?" opinions were divided and that showed with the students whispering, complaining and talking. "curfew for Day Class will be delayed one hour and you'll be able to leave the Moon Dorm an hour before usual. All this among the presence of prefects and teachers, of course. Depending on how this develops, both classes might be allowed to spend more time together. So far, the tutoring sessions are going pretty well. So, any questions?" nobody said anything and the vampires looked cheerful and exited bout the upcoming party "oh! And before you leave, there will be school busses to take all students to the Party. They will leave in different hours, depending on when you want to arrive, and the same goes for the return."
The next day the raffle dynamic was going pretty well, although the prefects and most of the teachers from both classes were present, just in case anything happened. All the participant students were in the cafeteria and the organizing committee, namely Ruka and Ichijo were making the final preparations.
Meanwhile, next to the entrance door two girls were talking
"I need to do some shopping for the party... I didn't get any shoes so… wanna come with me, Aisha?"
"Sure!... by the way, who are you going with to the prom?"
"It's not a prom, is a homecoming party and… I don't know, if you don't get a date I suppose I'll go with you" she lowered her voice so the blond girl would be the only one could heard her "it's not like my boyfriend-for-social-gatherings, aka my fake boyfriend is coming with me anyways…"
"Really? But I thought this was a social gathering"
"It is not like I'd like to go with him anyways, but just look at that…" the girl pointed at Kaname, who was helping Yuuki stand up; the girl had just been hit by a bunch of female students chasing Night Class boys.
"Are you alright? Yuuki" he looked at her with the sweetest glance he could do.
"Kaname sempai… I'm fine, thanks. But I couldn't stop them"
"You are doing an amazing job as a prefect, and at least for today teachers are helping too, so should relax a little"
"I…" she blushed "thank you"
"Are you going to the party this Saturday?"
"This time I won't be in charge of security, so I guess I will"
"I'm glad to hear that because I would want you to go with me, if you'd like" he got closer and touched her arm.
"What?!" he blushed even more "I mean… I… I thought you were… you know, it's somehow public appearance and I thought… "
"What? That I would go with someone else? I would be honored if you'd accepted to go with me. I'm not interested in going with someone else. I was just waiting for the time to ask you. I hope this isn't so sudden" his smile was warm and he was genuinely hoping the girl would agree to go with him. Deep inside, he feared that Zero had already asked her so there was a possibility of her rejecting his invitation. Besides, he needed to behave as a common teenager. It was the least he could for Yuuki's so called normal life.
"Not at all… I… I'll go with you" the girl smiled at the taller vampire, but inside her joy was about to explode.
"Well then…I'll see you on Saturday at 7… by the School building entrance. I would love to pick you up but… I'm afraid we're not allowed in Sun Dorm" they both smiled and kept talking until Kaname had to go alongside the Headmaster to start with the raffle.
Some students took the chance to get some clothes or makeup for the big party; others were walking around, enjoying their free time and the city looked more crowded than usual; the most popular boutique had a bunch of screaming girls inside, trying n dresses and modeling them. The few shoe stores were crowded too and the beauty salons' agendas were full.
"So… usually both classes don't get to spend time together?"
"Not really. Your see, Yamato…is like they lived in a different world. Some of them are even models, who manage their own business at day and attend to school at night, which is very cool, but that doesn't exactly leave us much time to be around them, so the curfew doesn't actually have much sense at all"
"I think it's for protection" Yamato said coldly.
"Protection you said?" Kaseumi looked somehow shocked.
"Yes… I mean, just look at them, they are good looking, intelligent, and some of them even rich… so they attend to a school who provides them with security and, somehow a VIP treatment."
"You're right… but at least the guy I'm taking tutoring with is very kind, he is an avid manga reader and doesn't seem to be model or whatever those guys do"
"Yeap, my companion either. Although he's brilliant!" both guys were taking a little walk around the town, looking for a place to have dinner
"Oh, look! Is Rhoslyn. Yamato" Kaseumi put a serious face, like if he was about to give a speech "I might have lost my opportunity, but… as Class President, I name you as our last hop for asking a Night Class girl to go to the party with you… "
"You could have participated on the raffle, you know?"
"Is not the same!" he yelled at his friend " anyhow… now's your chance! Go!"
"OK!... Rhoslyn!" they ran to reach the two girls passing by "hi!... I didn't know you'd be here.
"Oh, hi! Yes... we were shopping"
"The silly girl left her shoes in Tokyo"
"No I didn't! I forgot to buy them… is not the same"
"Oh, so you're going to the party?" Yamato said "good… I was wondering if…"
"Hey! Look who's here! Yamato, how's that assignment I gave you going?"
"Aidou sempai!" the blonde vampire came along with his cousin, who looked at the Day Class President with a harsh look, making him very uncomfortable "are you here to get your attire for this weekend?"
"Me?... nah I already have the best… of"
"We don't want to know… so… Yamato, you were saying that…" Aisha gave an annoyance glance to the two vampire guys next to them.
"Oh yeah… I was wondering if… well…" he thought carefully about his next words "are you going with someone to the party this weekend?"
"Us?" Aisha was speechless; she didn't want her class mates to know they didn't, but she still had to avoid the two human boys' obvious question "well…that… we… actually"
"Aisha is going with me" Akatsuki suddenly appeared next to the blonde girl and wrapped his arm around her shoulders "right?"
"I…. yes… I'm going with him…." They smiled at each other in complicity.
"Cool! What about you, Rhoslyn?" Yamato turned to see the raven girl, with his eyes full of hope.
"I… actually… I'm thinking about asking Headmaster Cross!" everybody looked at her with shocked and priceless expressions.
"What?!" Aisha said trying to not drop her jaws.
"Oh, don't be silly… we are going together. Is just that she doesn't want to make anyone jealous" Aidou smiled and copied Akatsuki's position with Aisha, but Rhoslyn took his arm away.
"If there's anyone to be jealous about is you! I'm Sanguinem's….ehh... ahh!" she realized what she was saying and in front of whom she was saying it.
"Sanguinem… that name sounds familiar…" Yamato said to himself.
"Of course! Is the big Hospital and medic supplies corporation, you silly!" Kaseumi scolded him.
"Oh right!" the four vampires looked relieved after hearing that; Sanginem was a "vampire's world corporation" but for the humans it was a medical emporium.
"So you're related to Sanguinem?" Yamato asked.
"I…. yes… I'm… somehow related to the owner"
"That's so cool!"
"Yes, and she's going to the party with me" Aidou said quickly as he stepped between her and Yamato.
"Yes Aidou, you already said that… seriously Akatsuki, how can you be friends with him?" Aisha asked.
"He's my cousin, so I'm pretty much stuck with him…."
"What did you say? I'm a nice person, you know?!"
"We'll I guess I'll see you guys at the party… and during the tutoring" Yamato he looked at Aidou and smiled "Come on, Kaseumi, I'm starving"
"Oh, yes!" and they entered a ramen shop nearby.
"What the hell was that? You idiot! I almost screwed everything!" As soon as they were out of sight Rhoslyn scolded the blonde vampire.
"Are you crazy?! I saved you from going with that dude! And got you a date with the prince charming"
"Oh yeah… the charming part is the best one…" Aisha said and Akatsuki started to laugh. Aidou and Rhoslyn kept arguing for a moment.
"Well, you are going together then? Or should I call that guy and tell him to ask her?" Akatsuki said finally, and of course after laughing at them.
"No… we're going together I guess…"
"Great! So… see you guys on Saturday" Aidou smiled.
"You're aware of the fact that we are class mates right?...we'll see each other in a couple hours… and for the rest of the week…" Rhoslyn said sarcastically.
"And don't forget that we see them at breakfast, lunch and even in the Dorm halls…."
"always so accurate, Aisha…. Bye then" both guys left.
The whole week was a wild mess. All students, from both classes were very excited about the party and the flexibility with the curfew, so it kept the prefects and teachers busy during the afternoons. The atmosphere felt different from a normal class day, and it lasted the whole week. It was different from Valentine's day because the main event would have both classes to spending time together, so Day Class girls were more quiet and started to exercise around the campus to get a better shape and show it with their dresses.
When Saturday arrived, Day Class kids were all around the Sun Dorm getting ready for the party. Some girls helped each other to do their hair, fix their makeup or gossip around, some other went to the city to get their hair done and teachers were all crazy taking note of who gas going out and who was getting in the Academy.
Zero wasn't so happy about the party. He even considered the idea of not going, but it wasn't in his nature to leave all those "defenseless students with those monsters" so he decided to go, but he didn't make any special preparations until 30 minutes before the bus left; he only put a simple black suit, with loose tie matching the color and white shirt. He headed to the school entrance, trying not to think about Yuuki's date; the guy he hated not only because he was a vampire or because he was a pureblood, the same as the woman who cursed him, but because he knew Yuuki had a big crush on him, and the whole package made Kuran Kaname even more obnoxious for him. In the way there, he met Yagari sensei, who looked at him and silently, without saying a word and gave him a pat on the back as they walked together.
There were several school busses parked right outside the Academy's main door and teachers had papers on their hand, taking roll for all students. The party wasn't formal at all; it didn't require necktie usage but some student wore it. The same with the girl's dresses, that weren't long and made the whole ambient youthful. The nightclub where the party would take place was some kilometers away from Cross Academy and students didn't have cars… at least normal students didn't, so most of them went by bus.
"Guys! The bus will leave in 10 minutes and the next one won't leave for another hour, so you better hurry up!" Ichijo tried to organize his class mates. He was in charge of supervising the Moon Dorm habitants' movement to the night club while Ruka, who was already there, checked the final details for the party.
When Yuuki arrived to the school building, Kaname was already there, wearing black trousers, a dark blue vest, white shirt and a blue and white stripped necktie to match them. His coat was black too. He was smiling at her as he handed her a beautiful red rose.
"You look beautiful with that dress" she was wearing a two-pieced pink dress.
"Thanks… you look very good too" she blushed and smelled the rose "you shouldn't have…"
"I wanted to… and it's for you to remember the first time we go to a party together" she blushed even more and he offered her his arm "shall we go?"
The walked towards the Academy entrance, Kaname smiling the whole time as he was very happy to be with Yuuki, and more important, to have her a his date for the party. He thought it had been a long time since they sent time together doing something fun and he was looking forward to dance with her and enjoy the party like if they were normal teenagers, forgetting about the vampires, the blood and the invisible barrier between them.
Just before they could reach the entrance, Yuuki spotted a black Bentley and the turned, only to find Kaname's wide smile.
"Allow me" he opened the door for her and helped get inside the car, being a total gentleman. Then he sat on the driver's seat and started the engine.
"You like it?... I only use it for special occasions, like this"
"I didn't know you drove…."
"I do, but not as often as I'd like to…"
Meanwhile in the Moon Dorm…
"Why are they taking so long!" Aidou was walking from one side to another of the living room.
"They are women… that's what they do. Just keep it calm… here, have a glass of packed blood…" Akatsuki gave his cousin a glass "let's take advantage of the precautionary measures"
"Yeah but… they even had a stylist to do their hair or whatever, and they still are taking so long" reluctantly, Aidou took the glass and sat next to Akatsuki. He was wearing black trousers, electric blue shirt matching his eyes and black vest, and his cousin a black shirt with grey trousers; very simple but his clothes fitted him perfectly…
"Did you bring your driving license?... because that car of yours won't be of much use if you don't have the…"
"I do! Actually, I always carry it, just in case"
"And I suppose you use it as a trophy, after all the times you had to take the exam…"
"Oh, shut up and…oh… ah… eh… wha…t?"
"wow, your date looks very good!" they saw Rhoslyn coming down the stairs wearing a short blue dress with stripes in the left shoulders and her black hair curled only in the tips.
"Sorry I'm late"
"It's ok… I was... I… you look great"
"Thanks Aidou… shall we go?" they walked towards the door "Oh… Aisha it's about to come down, she had to take care of some business with Sicuressa's staff"
"I can wait… see you at the party guys!" Akatsuki smiled widely and stayed on his seat.
They walked to the Moon Dorms back gardens.
"Usually this entrance door is for emergencies only, but today we were allowed to use it…" they approached a couple cars parked behind some trees. All of them were luxury and expensive cars, as expected from the vampire students; most of them coming from wealthy families.
"I guess Night Class took the chance to make a parade of their cars… too bad I didn't bring mine"
"Try not to faint, ok?"
"As if! I'm not the one drooling over my attire" she teased
"Oh, shut up and get in the car…" he opened the car's door and they headed to the party.
The entrance for the party was guarded by Sicurezza agents and no one outside the school community was allowed. The main door was decorated with hundreds of blue balloons that were set as if they were a tunnel and some lamps were gathered around the main door and the parking lot, making the night club look even cooler.
Inside, everything was dark and some purple lights scattered around the place. Big metallic balloons were hanging from the ceiling and there were tables on the sides of the dance floor. Some of them were occupied by students from both classes and the dance floor had a grid pattern that looked as if it had oily deep blue liquid inside, that moved when any one stepped on the floor.
Right next to the DJ cabin a big table with candies, snacks and non-alcoholic drinks was set. Everything was very well planned and the people in there looked so happy. Even the music was great: the latest pop and electronic hits by a very talented DJ.
"Not bad!"Aidou stood next to the entrance door, looking at the decorations and students dancing with the music.
"I never expected this place to look like this. It was totally different when we came, right?" Rhoslyn said next to Aidou, both of them pretending not to notice the fact that she was holding him by the arm; a chivalrous gesture the blonde vampire had already done twice that evening.
"I know, this looks awesome! "A female voice came from behind and surprised them.
" Hey, when did you guys got here… we left before you and…
"Let's say I have a really fast car…"-Akatsuki looked cool as he said that.
"So, are we going to party or what?"–Aisha took Akatsuki by the hand and dragged him to the middle of the dance floor, where a bunch of students were dancing and having fun, not minding about their classes at all.
Day and Night class were partying together. The fangirls were pretty calm, considering the situation, a bunch of vampires were talking with day class students, telling them about the teachers and exams they had in Night Class, and some other were trying to flirt among each other. A pretty normal homecoming party.
The VIP rooms were occupied by some teachers that preferred to watch the student's behavior from the second floor, where the music wasn't so loud. Of course, the dark room was strictly forbidden and guarded.
Kaname was in one of the VIP rooms with Yuuki, but soon enough she managed to drag him to the main party. It wasn't every day that a celebration such as that would take place, and he just wasn't able to say no to any of her petitions.
The only one complaining there was Avriell, who wasn't happy at all with the lack of alcohol in the party.
"It's a school party, you dumb ass! You couldn't seriously expect to have any alcoholic drinks…" Zero scolded the vampire girl as she was being a diva with one of the waiters.
"Like as if! It's le least you guys could do, right? Besides, I can totally pay for it"
Zero left Avriell and her complaining and walked around the place, holding a glass with soda, looking for Yuuki. He spotted her alongside Kaname and Ichijo, talking and joking; having a good time, and for the first time he admitted he was jealous of that particular vampire. Then he looked elsewhere, seeing Aisha dancing with Akatsuki and blatantly flirting with him, as he held her close to him, behind the multicolored dry ice.
Everybody was having fun, dancing around, talking and jumping around with the music. Kaien Cross looked very pleased about the results of his little experiment and apparently nothing could go wrong, but suddenly a very loud and disturbing yell was heard next to the dance floor. Immediately the Headmaster and Yagari Sensei went to check it out.
There was a small gathering of students around something or someone. Kaname looked suspiciously at them and immediately knew that something was wrong. The music was stopped, lights were turned on and Yagari ran towards the exit. All the vampires got tense all of a sudden and Day Class students couldn't understand what was going on; only the cry of a girl could be heard around the place.
"Oh my! This is horrible!" a girl said to her friend as they walked towards the bathroom "that girl just slipped and apparently is an open fracture. There's blood everywhere!"
"Did you hear that?" the boy with glasses looked terrified when he spoke with his friend but something caught his eyes
"Yes I… Kaseumi?" Yamato turned to see what he was looking at "is something wrong?"
"No I… think I saw something weird. It was like the eyes of those night class girls turned red and then went back to normal"
"What? Are you serious?" Yamato asked, looking at those girls "To be honest, I think I saw that before…"
