* I changed up the last bit of chapter 9 cause I cant do what I wanted to do yet. Sorry guys! But it will be in this chapter, so don't get all sad on me now! Here is chapter 10! *

OMG SO SORRY FOR THE WAIT DONT HATE ME! I have been recovering from the flu and have had a lot of things going on. Jeez its been like 2 weeks since i updated... I suck. X(

" See? You're not fine." Zero confirmed. " You need to get to the hospital wing."

" I can heal fast you idiot. I'm a wolf remember?" Growling under my breath I grit my teeth before putting pressure on my broken ribs. I held back a gasp of pain as the bones throbbed. " Okay maybe not fast enough... but they are healing." I added.

" Yeah okay, okay. Your so stubborn." He sighed as we walked back into the Association.

" You're one to talk."

Yagari came running around a corner with a gun in his hand. " You guys come with me. He's on the roof!"

I began to run after Yagari but a hand stopped me. " Where do you think you are going. He hurt you Anna!" said Yuuki.

" I don't care! I want him gone." I snarled and slapped her hand away before running after Yagari ignoring the calls of Zero and Anna. Ignoring the pain in my side I came up to pace with Yagari as we ran. Then he stopped and held a hand over his eye.

" Master?" he turned towards me.

" This wound aches whenever i recall it. The person whom I was engaged to was turned into a vampire by a pureblood. And I was the one who got rid of her. Seems like Kaito was under the circumstances too. And the same goes for Zero. He tried to kill himself." He said as we reached the top floor with Kaito and Kaien on our tail.

" Master... what-" The smell of pureblood blood wafted to my nose and I saw Kaname standing with Seiren, who was holding the sword in a blanket.

My eyes instantly narrowed at him and my ribs pounded with pain at the mere sight of him. This... this monster! This parasite. Like I had heard Yagari say,he had hurt a lot of people, even Yagari himself.

I new he was going to get past Yagari with ease so i backed up and then turned to walk quickly down the hall I had come. About a third of the way there I saw Zero and Yuuki come runnign through the door.

" Guys. Kaname is up there. He's-" a strong hand wrapped around my neck and slammed me into the hallway wall.

Stars and black dots exploded in my eyes as my head hit the wall. His hand constricted on my throat making me start to choke and gasp.

I reached up and gripped his arm, My nails dug into his arm to try and pull it away so I could breathe.

" The last one to block my way would be you. I knew that all along Yuuki." He said to Yuuki without looking at me.

" Let *gasp* me... go." I rasped.

" Now why would I let you go. You'll only try and attack me." He reasoned, finally turning to look at me.

" Kuran!" yelled Zero.

Kaname leaned toward me and his voice lowered to a whisper. " I see Kiryuu is very protective of you. I wondered what would happen if I did anything to you."

" You... already-... have." I growled, still try and get out of his grasp.

" Hmph. Not enough." he said and slammed me into the wall twice as hard. Darkness clouded my vision and I fell to the floor before loosing conciousness..

I woke to find myself alone lying on the floor.

" Ugh." I groaned clutching the back of my head. Just then the building shook and a low hissing sound filled the walls, making it sound like snakes slithering inside them.

A faint but overpowering aura made me recognize what it was. The Parent. The Parent was the maker of vampires and vampire hunters over ten thousand years ago. She was buried or deposites underneath the Association a long time ago.

I phased and corrected my balance when a rush of vertigo hit me. Kaname had hit me pretty hard. I was surprised I didn't have some mental malfunction. " Where is everyone?" I wondered and heard the sounds of fight a few floors up at the top of the building once again.

Racing outside I leaped onto one ledge after another until I reached the top to find Takuma, Kaname, Zero, Yuuki, and Sara standing around.

I saw Takuma behind Zero holding his hand over Zero's ,which held the gun, against Zero's jaw.

" Takuma!" I yelled in his head.. " Let him go!" He jumped with surprise but tightened his grip on the weapon. Zero glanced at me before looking back to Kaname.

" Ichijou. Do you really think that Sara is a pureblood who should be allowed to live? Yuuki, do you think so?" Kaname asked.

" I don't." said Takuma. " But...I don't want her to die. I think the same way about you." he said. I reformed to a human and ran cautiously over to Takuma, placing a firm hand on his arm.

" Takuma." i warned sadly. " Please don't. Let him go. We can sort this-"

" No we can't!" He hissed.

" I'm sorry, Takuma." Sara said moving closer to Kaname with some sort of thin metal spear with rings around it that ended with a cross at the top. " Even so, I want to become queen." She moved forward to stab Kaname. Yuuki moved her body in front of his.

" No Yuuki!" I cried and covered her body with my own. Kaname's arm stretched out over us just as the ground exploded. I peaked to see a giant sharp rock shard pierce Sara through the heart, lifting her completely off the ground. Letting go of Yuuki, I grabbed Zero and hugged him when I saw Takuma release him in horrified shock at what had just happened to Sara.

Zero wrapped one arm around me but gasped I saw his arm being coiled around by a sand and stone like tentacle. Kaname and Yuuki's weapons were also grabbed by it.

I reached to help get it off Zero's weapon but was grabbed by it and held there. I watched as it coiled around Kaname's still form and he did not try to get away. He just stood there.

A woman appeared with her long blond hair pulled into a side braid with a hood over her head. She caressed his face with a hands and a sad look came to her face. It almost looked like she was going to cry. This must be The Parent.

And then the coils disappeared as did the lady. The building began to crumble and sway.

" It's collapsing! RUN!" shouted hunter's as they fled. " We can't do anything about it. Get away!"

I looked around frantically for Kaito but couldn't find him anywhere. he had to be somewhere in the building with no quick escapes.

I dodged a large chunk of stone that slammed into the ground a foot from where I stood and ran into the building, completely ignoring the screams for my name.

I ran through the collapsing entry hall and down to the room I had last seen him which was near the basement. Avoiding falling pictures and glass I zigzagged over wall, ceiling and jumped over holes.

" Kaito! Kaito!" I shouted over the roar and crackling of fire.

" Anna!" The voice was faint but I could still here it.

" Where are you!" I screamed and maneuvered around yet another larger hole.

" In here! I can't get out!" I found the door where his voice emanated from behind and pushed with all my might at a a large bolder shape wall piece that had fallen against the door. Next I kicked the door until the wood broke under the force of my kick and I ran into the room. It was ablaze with smoke and fire.

Kaito appeared covered in ash and dirt but alive. " Come on!" I yelled.

" The building won't hold much longer! Go! Run!" I told him and sprinted down the hallway I had come. In a matter of minutes we reached the entryway. Kaito was 10 feet near the door when the ceiling finally gave away and fell down. I shoved Kaito with all my might and he fell outside just in time, leaving the building to collapse on top of me.

I found myself pinned ontot he floor by a large peice of stone unable to move. It was dark and I couldn't see anything but I was lucky to be alive and not crushed to death.

I tried to wiggle around and found I still had some room on the upper half of my body. After a few minutes of trying to get myself free i quit. My body was already spent and tired from the events that happened earlier.

" Takayima!" " Anna!" Muffled voice called for me. I yelled back and it took them a few tries of marco polo to find me. Light filtered to where I lay and a pair of familiar arms dragged me into the persons lap.

I looked up to see Zero and Kaito's concerned and relieved faces looking down at me.

" You are one stupid and reckless chic. I hope you know that." Kaito yelled.

" You betcha!" I said, and yawned leaning against Zero's shoulder. " Sorry for running off like that." I told him.

" It's alright. I'm glad we found you."

" Yeah, what are we going to do about the Association mess. Won't this take forever to rebuild?"

Zero laughed. " After all that happened and you're worrying about a building?"

I chuckled and yawned once more and closed my eyes as I drifted off.
