Recap:"I want you to help with a plan of mine."
"If it involves murdering you're family like the sadistic sick bastard that you are then do it by yourself." She pushed him against the dresser in a harsh manner as he chuckled. "What's so funny?"
"You, dear. So protective like a mamma bear is with her younglings. If you don't help me don't be surprised when the twins may I remind you whose family you murdered are no longer pure and you know I can do it. Maria might be a good choice to, but I think I want the older one more. What's his name? Ah, Zero."
Shizuka froze in her position. Looking up with defeated eyes she only answered with an angry tone. "What is it?"
"Uh, Zero…" Zero felt someone shaking him in his sleep. Groaning and turning the opposite direction from the person he was smacked on the butt. "Wake up, dumbass!"
With a muffled growl Zero pushed the figure off his bed and was wide awake now. He nearly laughed when he saw Yuuki on the ground cursing at him. "What do you want midget?"
"Stop with the short jokes, asshole," She scrambled up on her feet and fixed her blue nightgown. "I…"
"Yuuki, it's midnight, what on earth are you doing here?"
"I can't sleep and big brother won't let me into his room."
"Did you go to him directly or did you assume because of what happened during class?"
"What happened during class besides me getting slapped in front of you, again? Anyways I didn't try because I felt that he was mad at me."
Zero stared at Yuuki when she asked him the question. Maybe she didn't see his kiss with Kaname. Thank god… "So why come to me?"
"I was going to ask…," A blush appeared on her face even in the middle of the night you could see it. "If I could sleep here with you if that's okay?"
Despite how much of pain she was to him nowadays, it was difficult to hate her. He couldn't hate her to save his life. Shaking his head, Zero scooted over for Yuuki to get in who gladly climbed in snuggling up to him in the process. He noticed something furry hit him and looked down to see Yuuki holding a bunny stuffed animal. It was shoved in his face and he recoiled back away from it. "What the-!"
"Kiss it." The princess demanded. They sat for awhile glaring at one another, before Zero sighed and did as he was told. The unexpectedly, Yuuki cuddled up to him and kissed him on the lips. That's right lips! It was light brush but enough for them both to feel the electricity coursing through them. Yuuki heard the gasp come from her friend and she giggled slightly before trailing her lips down to Zero's neck.
"Yuuki, what are you doing?" Zero stopped short when he felt a warm tongue lick his neck and trail up and down. He took a sharp intake of breath when Yuuki's fangs scraped against his neck.
"I can't be satisfied with blood until I drink from my other one. I've already drank from big brother, you're the last one in order for my hunger to be completely sated." With that the girl bit into Zero's neck without warning when she felt the form next to her stiffen at the sudden intrusion. Feeling the need to do as she pleased because she was princess, she drank large amounts of blood from the exhuman. Despite their arguments, Yuuki felt that in a way she still owned Zero's heart and if Ciel wanted it or big brother; she would be the obstacle guarding it, daring them to get past her. Zero was her property just like Kaname and she would see fit to make sure it stayed that way.
Feeling Zero start losing conscious, Yuuki released him and looked at how deep her fangs had pierced him. By the looks of it, despite having accelerated healing it would be awhile before those punctures closed. He would have to walk around with that neck thing on until it closed. I mean can you imagine him walking around with two holes on the side of his neck? "See over before you know it. I'm the second ones whose ever bit you beside's Shizuka. You know you're blood taste really sweet, Zero, almost intoxicating. Addicting more so. Can't let anyone else have that, I might have to fight for my life." She gave a small smile at the figure who was already asleep not paying any attention. She traced her small hands on the tattoo adorning the hunter's neck and placed a kiss on it.
Sure she was engaged, but nothing was wrong with keeping a personal pet for hunger satisfaction. She still wasn't going to give up on Kaname, but she was in a battle also with Ciel for Zero. Those were her boys and she intended to keep them fighting over her.
Next Day (Night Class Dorms)
"Takuma have you seen Yuuki?" Kaname had visited his friend who was in his room reading his manga. Looking up from his book Takuma questioned his friend. "She disappeared last night after class and I'm curious to know where." Of course he had a hunch of where she was. Though it scared him at the thought that she might be with Zero alone. She was difficult to read now unlike before. He wasn't sure if she wanted Zero dead or alive, but always made sure to make his life a living hell.
"I have no idea. I haven't seen her one bit today. Why do you think she went somewhere bad?"
"In a way I do." Kaname said aloud before spinning on his heel and leaving the room. He closed the door with his mine as Takuma gave him a thank you. He roamed around the dorms until he returned back to his room where Yuuki was sitting on his bed. The girl gave a bright smile and jumped up to give him a hug. He held her back with one hand as she slowed down her attempt. "Why were you at Zero's?"There was an animalistic growl placed in the sentence as he waited for his sister to reply.
If you did anything to him, I swear…
"I couldn't sleep and Zero was my only comfort, you didn't seem like you wanted to be bothered big brother. I did you a favor. Are you jealous because I went to him and not you?" The girl gave a hopeful gleam in her eyes before her brother shot it down.
"I could care less about jealousy. If I find out you did more than that, Yuuki…" His voice was warning her and his eyes narrowed dangerously. She sat in silence hoping he didn't see the fear in her eyes if he ever were to find out what she did. Why was he holding Zero as some importance, she must have been the only one roaming around thinking they were still arguing over her. Right? "Let's just say, you're very naïve if you think I'll let you get away with it because you're my baby sister." She could scream right there. Both frustration with Kaname and fear of what he might do. God she hoped Zero didn't have the neck patch on, but wait then the punctures would still get her caught.
Oh my god! I'm screwed!
Yuuki wailed inside her head and didn't even notice Kaname had left. She ran out of the room looking for him but now he couldn't be found, it was like he fell off the face of the earth. "Oh crap…" She found Takuma who explained Kaname had left the dorms and said she wasn't allowed to leave. "Or else what?"She challenged. Little did she know she was going against Kaname's order.
"Well, Kaname said if you insist on being hard headed and bothering him, then go ahead and rush into full tragedy dead on. Then he'll deal with you personally." The blonde stated happily before returning back to his book as if Yuuki had left. His only job was to interpret the message to her nothing else. If she wanted to die, that was totally up to her.
"Damn it all!"
Day Class Dorms (Zero's Room)
"I can't believe you let her do that to you, Zero." Ichiru scolded his older brother as he placed the band aid on where she had bite his brother. "You just sat there too until you lost conscious. You're so reckless." There was a knock at the door before Ichiru could finish his scoldings at Zero. Both looked at it, before saying it was unlocked.
The door opened on its own and the twins looked at each other confused before they watched as a tall figure came into sight. It was Kaname and he didn't look to happy. He must have heard. "Hello twins, I thought I would drop by and apologize to Zero if Yuuki gave him any trouble last night." The way Kaname had said trouble it was defiantly obvious he had heard their conversation.
"Yeah she did. She thought she find comfort in biting Zero." Ichiru stated as his brother hissed at him. "Kaname would you do something about you're damn sibling. Whether you kill her or knock the hell out of her, it has to stop." Kaname nodded looking at Zero's bite mark. He remained calm, but inside he wanted to rip his sister in half then feed her to dogs. What made him even madder was that Zero let her get away with it!
Pinching the bridge of his nose, he avoided eye contact with Zero seeing the boy blush at remembering yesterday. He would have smirked and purposely kissed him in front f his brother had he not been mad. "I'm terribly sorry for my sister's idiotic mistake. I'll handle it right now." Ichiru had finished placing the patch on Zero's neck after Kaname began walking off. The pureblood stopped to take a glance at the exhuman one more time. Zero noticing looked up before looking away slightly flustered.
Damn, I knew I should have kept an eye on her.
Kaname blamed himself for what happened to Zero. Even though he let it happen and let her get away with it, it was still unforgivable. It was extremely foolish of Yuuki for doing this. He would make sure this time it would get through her head to leave Zero alone before class exchange.
Class Exchange
The twins and Kaito waited outside for the night class to come outside. What surprised them was when no one seemed to be interested in what was happening. They looked lifeless currently. Kaname was leading this time a distant look on his face, Yuuki was behind with her head hung low. Maria was the only one who ran up to them; she hooked her arms with Ichiru. No doubt they were dating.
"What's going on?"Ichiru asked still watching the class.
"I'll tell you about it during class. It's insane."
Kuran Mansion
"What do you mean, Ciel?"
"I mean you're stupid daughter bite Zero! Bite him! I'll kill that brat of yours Haruka!" Haruka backed into the wall at his cousin anger. Ciel was a terrifying sight when angered; he was just as bad as Kaname. That's why it was best to stay on his good side.
"Don't hurt her, she's my only daughter."
"Conceive another one! Make sure this one's smart and not abusive."
"Calm down Ciel." Juri came in the living room as both men watched. She sat down in the nearest chair, crossing her legs. "I know it's hard to stay calm when it comes to Zero or Ichiru, but you can't kill Yuuki."
"Juri!" Haruka ran to his wife as she openly held her arms out. Ciel rolled his eyes as both of them talked in happy voices. He was the only adult currently in the room. Both parents noticed before going back to their composure. "Anyways, it must be hard, Ciel as a guardian for the Kiryuu twins. You're job is to protect them and make sure all goes well. Basically putting your life on the line."
Ciel sat down on the couch burying his face in his hands. "I shouldn't have gotten suspended. That was immature of me."
"You were doing your duty so stop moping around!" Juri was out of her seat and pocking Ciel in the nose. "If you're job is to protect the twin then you do anything means necessary including hurting my daughter. Lucky for you, I think Kaname is changing drastically his feeling for Zero, which mean he will defend Zero with every bone in his body. He won't let anything happen if you're not there, same if he wasn't there. You both will protect him!"
"Honey, don't let Ciel hurt my little girl." Juri and Ciel turned to glare at Haruka; he was the only one defending Yuuki. Clearing his throat he gave up on her safety. "Sorry, Zero's parents entrusted you as a guardian next to that vampire hunter, Yagari. I guess it's fine if you hurt her for what she did."
Ciel smiled when Haruka looked like he would cry as Juri comforted him. He knew Zero's parents when they had the twins. He was one of the few vampires they tolerated even came to like. They liked him so much that they named him a guardian of the twins, but he never showed his face. He stayed hidden in the shadows whenever he was around. After their parents murder he lost track of the twins until he met them again at the party after that he promised he would stay with them. He decided against attacking Shizuka when he found out she took them in. Instead he decided at the last minute to enroll in Cross Academy to be with the twins. Then he realized he had fallen in love with Zero. Then Kaname had realized that he had also fallen in love with the exhuman, but kept to himself until Ciel made sure to bring it out.
Despite his love for the hunter, he knew he was off limits. Zero wasn't meant for him. In a way he was, but he belonged to someone else and Ciel knew who it was. Though that little niece of his was a bitch compared to Juri (who isn't one anyway) the cheerful, optimistic Kuran. If that girl kept getting in the way of what he was trying to do for Zero, she will die. Princess or not. It was time for him to return back to the academy with Cross's permission. Three days and Zero's was bitten, thirty days was too much.
Next Day (Headmaster's Office)
Kaname sat inside the headmasters office with the twins waiting for the ex hunter to return with Ciel. He felt he should tell Ciel about what happened to Zero after he dealt with his ignorant sister. The pureblood had answered with worry knowing Kaname wouldn't call him just for fun, it had to have something to do with Zero.
All three heads turned to see Ciel entering with the headmaster and Yuuki behind him. The princess still had her head hung low. From what Maria had told them, Kaname made Yuuki keep her head down from sight as a way of showing how dishonorable she was to the Kuran family. "Oh wow a full house today!" Kaien said coming to sit down in his chair. He looked from each group and his smile started to fade from the rising tension. Everyone except Yuuki and Zero were glaring at Yuuki. Yuuki was glaring at Zero and Zero kept his attention directed on Cross. "Hey eyes on me please!" The other three stopped and looked at Kaien waiting for his next action.
"Well Yuuki this is the second time, you've attacked a student let alone another old friend of yours. Last time Yori decided you're punishment. Zero will also do the same. Well Zero?" Kaname and Ciel's eyes flew to Zero who sat in silence debating whether or not to punish her. He didn't want to since it was Yuuki. She had probably been through enough hell as it is when Kaname found out about what she did.
"Nothing let her off." Kaname's mouth nearly dropped when he heard these words and he had to turn his face from how foolish Zero was. Ichiru looked like he would strangle his brother and Ciel shook his head keeping the anger from rising. "She doesn't have to do anything." Ciel shot Kaname a glance that told him to step in since it was his sister. They had an internal war going on through telepathy.
Do something Kaname!
Cross said it's Zero's choice. You do something!
If I do it'll involve you're sister dying at my hands.
Go ahead, it's not like I'll miss her too much.
Kaname I'm serious. I don't have an impact like you do when you give off an order.
…
"Headmaster Cross," Zero and Kaien directed their attention at Kaname. Yuuki stopped her giggling when she heard her brother. "Might I decide for Zero since this is my sister and I must also take responsibility?"
Yuuki shook her head at Kaien telling him not to, but the man gave in to the pureblood's request. A wicked smile placed itself on Kaname's lips as did Ciel. Zero was used as a shield for Yuuki out of fear while Ichiru pulled his brother out of the crossfire. "Thank you, what about…,"
Rikuschika778: Annnnnnnnnnddddddd Cut! That a wrap for this chapter folks! So Yuuki bite Zero, that was actually not planned until later on but I decided to go on and use it. Kaname found out and punished her, but no one knows what it was. Ciel's back and you just found out his real reason for being in the academy. Zero decided to let Yuuki off the hook (Such an angel, Kaname is deciding on Yuuki's punishment for Zero. I guess this was like a YUUKI chapter wasn't it, I wasn't trying to, but I guess I wanted a chapter where she turned really bad on Zero by biting him. Hehehe sorry.
Anyways!
Question1: Whose glad Ciel's suspension is over early?
Question2: Do you think Zero's to soft on Yuuki?
Question3: In this whole story does Zero seem out of character?
Reviews loves!
