Hanabusa and I were in his room for the night.

Aidou brought me over to his bed. He laid me down on his bed.
What is he looking for exactly? I thought. I curled up into a ball on his bed again.
"The reason I call you princess is that rare, and Pure Bloods, vampires are like royalty to our kind," Aidou explained. "It's not just that. Before you disappeared, you were really close to Ichijou and his family. I'm taking a big leap here by saying that his grandfather saw you as a princess."
"Really? You mean it?" I asked. "Is that why he acted a bit strange when he first saw me at my old school?"
"Of course I mean it. Let me get you a pair of pajamas before we continue and I forget about it." Aidou went to the dresser to get me a pair of pajamas.
"Okay," I whimpered. "Tsukiko said that you picked me out some clothes when you two went shopping earlier. Is that true?"
Aidou nodded. "It is. There's a couple dresses for you, and some shirts and skirts for you as well. Also a pair of pajamas." Aidou brought over a pair of his pajamas for me. "Stay in here tonight. It'll make me feel better knowing that your safe."
"I will," I said as I untied the dress and got into the pajamas. For some reason I couldn't button the shirt correctly.

Hana-chan came over and helped me. "You're having troubles all over the place aren't you?" He finished buttoning up the shirt for me.

"Looks like it. Thanks for being there when I needed you."
"It's nothing Natsuko-chan. You can always count on me."

I nodded. "I know I can."
I got comfortable.

Hana-chan laid down next to me. "Get some sleep my dear," Aidou whispered in my ear. "I'll see you tonight." Aidou put an arm around me.
I snuggled in close to him. I nodded. I rubbed my eyes. I didn't realize how tired I was. My eyes began to droop. I felt him kiss my top of my head.

Where am I? I thought. I looked around. What is this place? I heard a voice calling for someone.
'Daddy wait up,' a young voice called.
I turned around and saw a young girl running towards her father. That must be me and my father. Wait that looks like Rido Kuran. I watched the scene unfold in front of me.
'Where's mommy?' I, well the younger version of me, wanted up. 'I want to see mommy. Why won't you let me see mommy?'
'She left us. I'm sorry my sweet, little angel.' Our father picked the younger of us up. 'I'm so sorry. I don't think she'll be coming back to us. I wish that there was something I could do to make you feel better. I miss seeing that precious smile of yours.'
I cried. I fell to my knees. Why did he lie to me about my her? Why? I looked over at the younger version of me and my father. The little girl smiled.
'It's okay my dear. I have you.' He pecked the top of my, her, head. He never let me go.
Daddy, I thought. I really need you right now. Where are you?

A hand rocked me. I opened my eyes slowly. "What is it?" I asked wryly. I sat up rubbing my eyes.
"You were crying in your sleep. I wanted to make sure you were all right," Aidou said. "You had me worried
"I was?" I asked confused. "How badly was I crying, anyway?"
"Pretty badly. Did you have a nightmare?" He asked.
"I'm not sure if it really was a nightmare," I answered. "It was about my father. I was just a little girl. I think it was three or four years after he killed my mother. My father resembled Rido Kuran. I'm not sure if he's actually my father. He might be." I looked out the window. I noticed that it was twilight. "How long was I out?"
"Pretty long. You must have been pretty tired. I just woke up a little bit ago." Hanabusa played with my hair a little.
"Aidou-chan do know where my father might be?" I asked after a moment of silence.
"Your father? I'm not exactly sure where he is. He disappeared shortly after his two siblings died. He's done some things that the Council isn't happy about." Aidou pulled me in close. "Sorry about not knowing what happened to your father. I know it means a lot to you to try and find out as much as you can."
"It's all right. Thanks," I whispered.
