Hello! Another chapter is up! :) I don't own anything except my OC! Enjoy! And thank you all for your support!

I followed my siblings, quickening my step so that I could reach them only to stop dead on my tracks next to Yuki infront of the school entrance. Zero, however, had already passed though the entrance and was heading towards the town. I felt my heart skip a bit knowing too well that in a few hours the sun would set and it would be quite dark and dangerous for humans to wonder at the dark streets. Vampires were lurking at every corner, feeding themselves to the next human that had the bad luck to cross his way with them. Yuki took a step ahead only to have me grab her wrist and pull her back forcefully, my eyes narrowed at the small retreating form which belonged to Zero.

"Don't even think about it." I growled at her making her sunk away with slight fear and uncertainty before looking back at the hunter.

"But Zero-" She started but I cut her off.

"I'm going to bring him back. You, however, will stay here and go tell the headmaster. It's quite dangerous for you to wonder around the town while your blood draws the vampires so easily."

I fixed her with a serious look, causing her to nod before I started to run as quickly as I could in order to catch up with Zero or at least spot him somewhere. But the silver head was long gone when I stopped at the town's main street, looking around hoping that I would see him but with no luck. People were walking around me, some of them talking, some other just heading to their destination quetly, oblivious to their surroundings. But among them I could sense other precenses too, inhuman to be exact and I brought my hands closer to the vampire weapons on my sides just to be safe, while keeping my face blank but my heart was beating faster and faster from agony. Every time I was in town I was always alerted of my surroundings, since knowing and feeling that vampires were close to you wasn't a very comfortable feeling, except from the ones at school . But I was not here to hunt any of them down, infact I hadn't hunted any vampire yet cause the chairman was still to afraid to let me do it and was only training me.

I sat down on a stony bench as I felt my blood boil at the thought of my idiot brother. Seriously, why did I ever bother to search for him? He would probably shrug me off and pin me down with that deathly glare he is so fond of giving me and make me feel stupid for even worrying about him. But, I didn't bring myself to ignore the fact that he might get into trouble or getting hurt. I gave a sigh as I stood up and was ready to continue searching for him until I heard a scream, it's sound slightly covered by all the noise from the people but I could still hear it. Quickly, I ran towards the direction of it until I reached a secluded part of the town with old abandoned houses. I took some steps forward slowly looking around me suspiciously until my eye caught something on the ground. I knealed infront of the small pont with red liquid. My eyes widened slightly as I stood up and drew out my knives, fear washing my insides while my breaths came out short and slightly trempled. But there was no vampire here and from the small drops on the ground that were leading away from here it seemed that the beast's victim had somehow managed to escape. I cursed under my breath for me taking my time doing nothing while someone was ready to become the meal of a bloodsucker.

I run, following the small drops of blood until I stopped infront of a tall building. I heard a faint sound behind me and turned around quickly with my on knife pointing towards the source of the sound but nothing was there. I was ready to head towards there until I heard anothher sream, this time coming from the top of the building and a creepy lagh of what seemed a small child. I let a gasp of fear as I run as fast as I could, climbing the many stairs wishing that I was not to late. Finally, I reached the top floor and the sight made me want stand there in shock from fear and anger. There, on one corner was Yuki with the artemis on her trembling hands staring at the small vampire ahead of her with a frightened look on her face. The vampire jumped towards Yuki with its sharp teeth bare and its hands with sharp nails ready to tear apart my sister but in minutes I was infront of her and with a sharp strike with my knives it fell back on the wall, a loud scream of escaping from its lips as blood run through a deep wound on its chest. I felt a sting of pain on my hand and I saw a small river of blood running from a small but long wound that was probably caused by the sharp nails of the vampire.

I turned my gaze towards it, raising my knives ready to finish it off this time but I slowly lowered them as I saw it's eyes widened and turning to look with fear at the form that was now standing at the opening of the window, almost blocking the faint light of the sun. Yuki behind me gasped but I didn't turn to face him since I knew who it was. His presence was strong, as it was to all the purebloods, and I couldn't help but curse inside my head for my damn luck. Of all people he had to be the one to come and help us.

"Poor thing...lapsing into this state." His voice held that calm tone of his but I could sense a hint of anger too. I tried to look away as he made his way towards us and stood behind me and Yuki before pulling us towards him until our backs met his chest.

"But...you hurt two people very dear to me." He hissed as he moved his hands to cover our eyes and for once I let him do whatever he wanted. I relaxed a bit as I leaned more into him and as much as I hated to admit it I felt safe on his embrance. Soon, there was a strong blow of wind around us and the vampire screamed before everything fell silent, with mine and Yuki's quick breaths as the only sounds in the room. Kaname's hands fell from our eyes to wrap around our arms but I quickly pulled away from his embrance, taking a few steps back. Kaname narrowed his eyes at me for a bit before turning to my still shocked sister.

"It's over." He said trying to calm her down.

"T-that boy..." she started but stopped as a confused look passed her features. Kaname, as if sensing her uncertainty, took the liberty to explain to her.

"Level E."

Kaname's eyes were upon me as he said those two words and I felt my heart skip a beat as realization hit me, remembering Kaname's words one of the nights we argued once again. Level E; a vampire that constantly kills to ease its thirst... and Zero was going to transform to a thing like that boy. I held his stare for a minute before looking away, not able to bear the strenght his gaze held. Instead, I focused on my injured hand from which small drops of blood were falling on the dirty floor not paying attention to what Kaname and Yuki were saying. After that, the pureblood came and stood infront of me and took hold of my injured hand, bringing it close to his face to examinate it.

"It's not deep but the smell of the blood will draw more vampires."

"Just like it did to you?" I said before I could hold myself, noting that his eyes had turned crimson red at the sight of my blood but seeing the disaproving look on Yuki's face and the annoyed one on Kaname's I dropped my eyes on the floor, biting the inside of my one cheek so that I wouldn't say anything else.

"I can heal it-"

"No!" I exclaimed before releasing my hand from his hold and keeping it close to my chest. I knew exactly how Kaname's healing powers worked and I didn't need another reason to feel once again embarrassed infront of him. I threw him a small glare before grabbing Yuki from her wrist and headed towards the building's exit with the pureblood close behind, all the while giving my sister a very serious look causing her to look down in same. We had many things to discuss once we reached Cross Academy.

"Can you enlighten me what the hell were you thinking?" I hissed once me and Yuki were alone somewhere inside the school building. After we reached Cross Academy, I dragged Yuki inside with nothing more than a glance at Kaname who in return smiled to Yuki, who shouted her thanks to him as I was dragging her, before giving me a hard look as he walked away. Now, I was practically screaming at her for the past hour, not caring that someone might hear us while she looked like she was ready to melt on the ground from shame.

"Seriously, Yuki. What did you not undertsand from the phrase "you will stay here"?!"

Again she didn't say anything as a faint blush covered her cheeks and her eyes were still glued on the ground. I let out a sigh before turning my back at her and run my hand through my hair, trying to calm down. I took a deep breath before turning back to her again and gave her a warm hug.

"I'm sorry, One-san. I was just afraid that you or Zero would get hurt. I didn't think that something like that would happen..." She whispered as she pulled away a little and looked at me with that look that always made me give up and forget my anger. I smiled a bit as I patted her head.

"Next time you'll do exactly what I say. Am I clear?" I said with a warning tone and she nodded quickly before we smiled to each other and walked towards our room.

"But you have to promise me something too, Angel." She grinned at me as I gave a sigh.

"Okay. What is it?"

"You'll thank Kaname for coming to help us and apologize for snapping at him." My eyes widened at that but as I opened my eyes to object she threw me a small glare, making me bite my tongue and swallow my pride as I nodded.

"Fine! But it will be only this once!" I exclaimed with a determined look on my face. Yuki just sighed before speaking in an exasperated tone.

"Sure, whatever you say, Angel."

I walked around the building, mostly goofing around instead of doing my duties as a perfect. It was late at night and I couldn't help but feel my eyes close on their one whenever I sat somewhere and relaxed. Yuki had the same promblem but she was trying to do her best as always and that meant that she had to force me to do the same. At least she was kind enough to let me patrol inside the building. As for Zero, I hadn't seen the silver hair hunter since earlier the afternoon but the chairman said that he had returned to the boys dormitory later than us. Yuki wanted us to go and talk to him, but I knew that we would only make him more distant towards us. Not to mention that I was still a bit mad at him but I was begining to regret my behavior towards him since when I saw what a level E was.

I inhaled deeply, feeling my body tremple at the simple act but I didn't mind as I continued my way towards the stairs, where I stopped dead on my tracks. At the bottom of them was sitting the said hunter. I couldn't see his face since his back was towards me but from the way his form was moving I knew that he was breathing hard. Probably his thirst was once again taking over. I cleared my throat loudly making my presence known and I saw him tense as he glance at me from the corner of his eye before looking away again. He didn't speak or made a move to acknowledge me and I frowned at that before giving a sigh and decided to take the first step.

"We were worried about you today..." I started while studying him closely. He didn't move like he was waiting for me to continue and I took this as a good sign to do so.

"I was afraid that you might got hurt... I came looking for you." Again he didn't respond. I took a deep breath as I walked down one step causing him to glance again towards my direction. At least there was some reaction...

"Listen Zero, I don't like us being like this..." I paused for a bit before continuing. "I want you to tell me what is going on. I can help you-"

"You can't!" He spoke for the first time and I could sense fear and agony on his tone. I took some steps closer only to be stopped by the same tone on his voice. "Don't come any closer!"

"Why?" I asked and I couldn't hide the angry tone from my voice. He stayed silent for a bit as he stood up with his back still facing me.

"Please...you would hate me if you knew..." He whispered with his voice trembling at each of his words. I felt myself boiling with anger at what he said. How could he think so lowly for me? He was one of the most important people in my life, I would do anything for him and yet he thought that I would abandon him for him being a vampire.

"You think that I don't know what's happening to you? You think that I am blind at the fact that you are becoming one of them?" I took a few more steps ignoring the fact that he tensed even more at my words. "You thought that I wouldn't find out sooner?" A few more steps and I was standing right behind him. "And you thought that I would hate you for being a vampire against your choice?" My words were barely a whisper but I knew he heard me. He didn't move from his place, probably still shocked from what I knew but I still felt anger boiling inside me.

"But you were right about one thing. I should have left you alone in the first place since you seem to think so lowly for me." I hissed as I turned around to leave.

"Angel!" I felt him grab my hand but he let out a gasp as the bandage around my wound fell on the ground. Immediatelly, his hand grabbed mine roughly pulling me hard against his chest causing me to let a shriek of surprise but I was soon silenced when I felt his hot breath against my neck. My breath quickened and as his other hand wrapped around my waist tightly I tried to push it away but all was in vain. His lips brushed on the soft skin of my neck and I felt something soft and wet trailing down the side until it was replaced from something sharp being dig deep into the flesh. I let out a groan of pain and tried to get him off of me but the more blood he took the more tired I felt until I used all my strength and shoved him away. I took a few steps away looking at the sight infront of me with a frightened look on my face, my hand clinging at the side of my neck that he bit. He lips were covered with blood, my blood, while his eyes were cromson red.

Never trust a vampire, Angel...if you do, you'll be captured by those eyes...

"Angel..I'm sorry." He looked away with a face full of guilt and regret and I couldn't help but feel sorry for him. I wanted to reach for him and take him in my arms, telling him that everything would be alright. But I couldn't make myself move. My face softened as I watched him and I managed to take a few steps closer before I sensed the aura of another vampire around us. Quickly, I stood infront of Zero pushing away the dizzy feeling that was begining to take hold on me and stared hard at the intruder.

"So out of craving blood, you've turned into a beast, Kiryu Zero." Kaname climbed up the stairs giving Zero a hard look but when he saw me infront of him, with my arms streched at my sides in a protecting manner, anger flashed through his eyes and for the first time I knew that he was tempted to hurt Zero.

"Return to your class! I can handle him!" I said loudly with my voice trembling at each of my words as I was trying to fight back the feeling of tiredeness. Kaname stared at me, taking notice of my condition and took a step forward to help me but I stepped back fixing him with a hard look.

"Angel, you're weak-"

"I'm fine!" I exclaimed, trying to persuade myself but slowly I felt my legs giving in before I started falling on the ground until strong arms wrapped around me, before raising me and holding me in bridal style. A familiar scent hit my nostril and I placed my one hand on his chest in order to push away the man that was holding me only to have him tighten his hold, bringing me closer to him.

"You drunk a disgusting amount of blood, didn't you? So much that Angel can't even stand."

"Stop..." I whispered as I closed my eyes, slowly giving in to my weak state.

"Look at her...was her blood so delicious?" He hissed the last part with pure hate drifting from his tone before I felt him move as he walked away.

"Kaname..." I managed to say but he silenced me with a soft kiss on my forehead.

"Shhh... Sleep, my angel..." Those were the last words I heard as I let darkness take over, all the while thinking about a pair of lavender eyes.
