Chapter 10: Pure blood or Not

"You need to know something Zero," Kami said looking into his eyes as he glanced to the jar and back at her. He nodded once to her and waited to listen to what she had to say. "You know already that this is Shizuka's blood, if you drink it you become a pure blooded vampire," Kami told him. Zero tightened his fists at the name of the woman who created him to be the way he was. "No," Zero said, Kami looked shocked at him, "I don't want to be something I hate." "Zero please," Kami begged him. "No," He said as he began to shut the door. Kami hurried when she put the jar on the floor and slammed the door open. She grabbed Zero and pushed him agaisnt the wall hard. He looked at her his shock. Kami tightened her grip on his shirt. "Kami," He said in shock.

"You have to drink it," Kami said taking a few deep breaths to help calm her. Zero stared at her still in shock. "You're almost at the end, Zero," Kami tried to say calmly. "Kami, I can't drink it. I don't want to be someone I hate," He told her. "Did you not hear me!" Kami yelled looking at him as he gasped at her, "Zero you're going to be a level E and there is something here to help you and yet you say you don't want it!" Zero was quiet as he stared at her as she looked down at the ground. "You're lucky that this was found and that it's her blood," Kami said more calmly. "Kami," Zero tried to say. "If you continue this then you'll end up killing me!" Kami yelled at him and looking at him again, "You'll end up the same way my aunt did!" Zero continued to stare at her.

"Kaname said that you have a reason to live now, and that's why you should drink it," Kami told him Zero's eyes widened at what she said and she quietly looking down a little as tears welled up in her eyes, "he said that you can live as a pure blood. You can even live past the regeneration of the world when it's gonna ends soon."

Zero could feel Kami's sadness as he placed each hand on the sides of her waist.

"You won't have to suffer anymore," Kami told him looking at him as tears ran down the sides of her cheeks, "I'll love you not matter what." Zero quickly wiped her tears away and placed a quick kiss on her lips. "I'll do it, so don't cry anymore," Zero told her as he hugged her. His eyes became red and he tightened his hug. Kami knew what was going to happen.

He moved her hair to one side as he said," This is the last time." Kami nodded to him as he kissed her neck and licked it, then came the fangs. She felt like there was a lullaby playing in her head as he sucked her blood. He didn't for to long because there was more blood for him to drink. When he stopped he licked her neck to stop the bleeding and kissed it. She looked up at him and she placed a kiss on his lips for only a few seconds. He released her as he walked towards the jar and picked it up.

"Kami?" he asked as he took the lid off of it and smelt Shizuka's blood as Kami looked at him, "Go, and don't come back tonight. You could still get hurt after I turn tonight." Kami nodded as she walked past him leaving him.

Zero's side:

He closed the door and stared at the jar. He lifted it and began to drink it. Zero drank it til the last drop as his eyes were still firey red. He didn't have the need to drink blood every five minutes like he did before. He looked around his room and thought that he felt the same as he did before. The window opened as the wind blew Zero's hair. Kaname entered the room looking at Zero. Zero furrowed his eye brows with his eyes still red from drinking Shizuka's blood.

"Kaname Kuran," Zero spoke, "What do you want?" "You still hate me?" Kaname asked him. "You should care why?" Zero asked him back. "I don't, even though I know you'll listen to what I have to say," Kaname spoke with a smirk. "What is it?" Zero asked him. "You were allowed to be a pure blood by me. You're lucky that I was able to find her blood for you. It was frozen in a container and meant to be for you. At least thats what the note said," Kaname explained, "So shouldn't you be thanking me?" Zero narrowed his eyes at Kaname.

"What I have to say is, that you will be staying in the moon dormitory," Kaname spoke. "Head master agreed to this too?" Zero asked him as Kaname nodded to him. "You know that you can't drink Kami's blood anymore Zero," Kaname told him with a stern look. "I know that," Zero growled at him. He sighed and closed his eyes. He opened them and his red eyes went back to it's normal color. "Shall we go?" Kaname asked him. Zero nodded at him. Zero grabbed his belongings and he and Kaname both left the boys dorm rooms. Zero looked up at the sky and saw the full moon. He smiled rememebered how Kami would always look at it while they were on duty as guardians.

Kami's side:

Kami walked towards the girls dorms. She thought that at last Zero will be okay and won't have to suffer being a pure blood now. Kami meant it when she said she'd love him no matter what happened. She hoped that Zero was alright for the night being by himself. She also knew that he couldn't drink her blood anymore. She stopped and looked at the full moon above her and smiled. 'Zero,' she thought, 'You'll be alright. I can see you when I go on duty during the night classes.' She smiled as she made her way towards the girls dorm room. She stopped when she saw the chairman standing on the steps to the girls dorm room.

"Dad," Kami said, and asked, "What are you doing here?" He sighed and said, "Kami, Zero's not going to be with you in school or when your on duty as a perfect." "I know, he's going to be a pure blood," she told him. "That's right, and he's going to stay during the night classes. You already know what that means, you will be on patrol by yourself at night," the chairman said. "Yes, it'll be more freedom for me and practice for my vampire hunting skills," Kami said with a smile. "You will start your vampire hunting tomorrow alone as well," the chairman said with a sad face. "Dad, please don't tell me it's something you don't want me to do again," Kami said looking at him frowning. "Oh no," He said smiling, "you're a big girl. I know you can do it!" "Thanks for the encouragement," Kami said with disbief.

"Headmaster," A male voice interrupted them. "Ah Kaname Kuran, I thought you left," the chairman said. "I had some things to discuss with Kirryu-kun," Kaname said, "He's safely in the Moon Dormitory." "Well done Kaname," the chairman said. Kaname saw Kami looking at the building of the Moon Dormitory. "Don't worry Kami, you will see him soon," Kaname told her as she looked at him, "Zero will learn how to control himself a little more and he won't be able to bite you or suck your blood anymore." "Kaname, out of curiousity, if someone wanted Zero to turn them into a pure vampire, would you allow it?" Kami asked him. "Are you inquiring this someone is a person you know or in fact... you?" Kaname asked her. "Uh..." the chairman said glancing back and forth at the two of them.

"Yes," Kami said as the chairman went ballistic. "Kami no!" the chairman said. "Headmaster please," Kaname said holding up his hand to calm him. Kaname looked at Kami and said, "If that was his choice and yours, I would say yes. My reason would be because I know you both and I know you wouldn't be any trouble to any humans or vampires." "Kaname Kuran this girl is part of the Vampire Hunters association," the chairman said. "She would obviously have to quit or retire from that," Kaname said to him. "Oh," The chairman said nodding to him. "Well I should be going," Kaname said. "Good bye and thanks Kaname," Kami said. He nodded and disappeared out of their sight.

Kami yawned and streched. "I'm going to bed," Kami said as she walked towards the door to the girls dorm. "Good night," the chairman said as he left with a smile. Kami walked in the building and closed the door behind her. She went to her dorm going in and closing the door behind her. She changed out of her clothes and put her pajama's on. She laid in her bed and felt the marks in her neck. She sighed as she turned to her side she looked up at the stars. She couldn't see the moon since it was behind the girls dorm. She didn't mind looking at the stars, they sparkled to beautifully and then she began to fall asleep.

Kami woke up the next morning and knew it was the weekend. She remembered everything that happened last night. She got out of bed and took off her pajamas and got on her clothes for the day. She grabbed the artemis and put it in her coat pocket. She put her hair up in a ponytail so that it wouldn't get in the way. She heard Yori Chan move in her bed and Kami turned quickly looking to see if she woke her up. Yori let out a yawn and said, "What are you doing Kami?" "I didn't wake you did I Yori Chan?" Kami asked her. "No, you didn't," she said smiling at Kami.

"Oh well, I'm going vampire hunting for the first time today," Kami told her. "Finnally! You and Zero will spend more time together," Yori tol dher smiling. "He's not coming," Kami said with a frown.

"What do you mean?" Yori asked confused. "Last night Zero turned into a pure blood," Kami said. "That means that..." Yori chan said but Kami cut her off, "Yeah, he's with the Night Class and probably will retire from being a vampire hunter." "It's gonna be a bit lonely in class then," Yori chan said. Kami sighed and opened the door while saying to Yori Chan, "I'm gonna go." "Good luck Kami!" Yori chan said smiling and waving at her. Kami smiled and shut the door.

Kami walked to the headmaster's house and walked into the kitchen. She saw the chairman making breakfast and he saw that she came in the room. "Good morning Kami Chan," the chairman said nicely. "Hello," Kami said getting into the fridge and began to make her breakfast. "You ready for your big day ahead of you?" he asked her. Kami smiled and said, "Yeah, I'm ready just want to get some food in me first." He nodded at her as she began to eat her food. He poured her some orange juice in a glass and placed it in front of her. She smiled and took a gulp of it and set it down.

"I should be going," Kami said standing up and began to leave. "Good luck Kami," the chairman said. She nodded as she walked out of the house and closed the door behind her. She walked away from the campus grounds and knew that she was on her own in a dangerous place. She walked into the town near by knowing that there was a vampire around some where.

She stood in place for a minute as she glanced to the building next to her. She could see something move in the distance behind the window wear she was looking, it was almost like it was a shadow. She looked at the people around her as she began to walk into the building. She saw that it was an empty space, there were torn curtains still hanging above the window. She kept her ears open to make sure she would be able to hear any sound from every direction.

She looked out the window and saw less people walking by. She thought they must be on their way to work. She tried to control her breathing to make it sound like she wasn't breathing at all. She jumped when she heard a loud thump on the ceiling above her. She grabbed the artemis and pressed the button that made it longer. 'That sounded like a body hitting the ground,' Kami thought as she began to quickly go up the stairs infront of her.

She peeked her head into a room and saw a man holding a human girls body in his arms. 'Level E vampire perhaps,' Kami thought narrowing her eyes at the man. She walked in silently and slowly behind him. He turned around to see Kami in a flash and she hit him it the artemis. He cried in pain as she bent over quickly to see if the human girl was alive. Kami felt a pulse and glared at the vampire who was wounded on his arm. Kami swung the artemis and the artemis showed it's true weapon, with the blades and the top end of it. He laughed and hissed at her as he ran towards her. She swung the artemis in a flash and the vampire quickly turned to dust. 'That wasn't so bad,' Kami thought as she heard something in the other room.

She walked across the hall towards the room where she heard the sound. 'Great. Another vampire,' Kami thought. The vampire jumped on Kami out of no where and they stumbled on the floor fighting. "I'll devour you little girl," the male vampire hissed at her. "I thought vampires suck blood not eat body's," Kami said as she hit him witht he artemis. He screamed in pain from the hit. She hit him again with the sharp blade at the end of it and he turned to dust. She waited quietly and ready for the next vampire, if there was one left. She waited for a good half an hour, and there wasn't any sound or sense of another vampire prensence near her or anywhere in the house. Kami went into all the room and saw nothing. She went back into the room where the girl was lying on the floor and was a prey from those vampires. She picked the girl up and carried her out of the building. She was making her way towards the academy until she saw Toga Yagari.

"What happened to her?" he asked Kami. "She was being sucked by vampires," Kami answered him. "Ah, that must have been intersting," He said looking at the young girl. Kami sighed and said, "Well they weren't that tough to fight off. She's alive still so that's a relief." "You made sure there was no one else in the house?" he asked her. "Nope, only two vampires and her," Kami told him. "So you're first day went well huh?" He asked with a smile. "Yes, sensi," Kami said smiling at him. "Here let me take the little girl," he said grabbing her arm. "You sure?" Kami asked. He nodded as Kami gave him the girl and they made their way to the academy.

A/N: Chapter 10! Zero's a pure blood vampire! Kaname and him are kinda starting to be a little nicer to each other now since there's no reason to be angry with each other anymore.
