I groaned. Light was hitting my eyes, waking me from another 'fantastic dream'. Note my saracasm. I opened my eyes and met with a bright light and not-very-closed curtains. Apparently Kaname had neglected to shut the curtains before going to bed.
I turned away from the curtains and saw a sleeping, peaceful Kaname. Since we had moved into the dorms of Cross Academy, we have one bed in a big bedroom, next to our personal study and bathroom. There are some nice perks being a pureblood.
After four years of living in the Kuran Mansion, and solving my eating problem, we have moved into the dorms of Cross Academy, a high school with the goal to promote peaceful coexistence between vampires and humans. There are two different classes, the night and day class. Obviously, the night class is made of only vampires, with Kaname as the dorm president and Ichijou Takuma as the vice dorm president. The day class is made of only humans with... I don't really know, but I think it's human. The nigh class usually wakes up around 16:00, and leave for class at 16:55. We finish class at 23:00 and the night class is usually asleep and in their dorm rooms at 07:00. The day class... I don't know. I don't live in their dorms, and they have a LOT more people.
I looked past Kaname's head and looked at the clock. 13:00. I gently slipped from under the covers, to the floor, trying not to wake Kaname. I gently crawled over to the window and tugged the curtains over to the opposite side of the window. The room almost instantly became sleepable again. For me at least.
I looked over and crawled back into the bed, seeing Kaname on the other side of the bed with his back to me in a black button-up shirt and black slacks. Plain as usual. I dragged myself into the empty side of the bed. I looked at Kaname in the dim room. Er, more like his back. I sighed.
Kaname has grown so much since he was a 'kid'. He looks almost exactly the same from before he died, only he has shorter hair.
Me, on the other hand, look like an 11 year-old girl, and it's stayed that way for four years. The only thing growing is my hair, so now I have a heap of black curtains falling behind me. They nearly reach my knees. Also, when I say my hair is the only thing growing, I mean it. I have a chest as flat as a board. Had I let the hair on my stomach grow, I'm sure it would have exceeded the length of my chest. My eye hasn't changed from its black color, and my other eye is still missing. No one notices it, though, except Kaname, Yuuki, and Kaien. I had gotten someone to cut and part my hair correctly so it would grow over my missing eye. Luckily, the Day and Night Class don't notice my missing eye, or my black eyeball. And if they do, they don't dare speak of it.
I stared at Kaname's back, thinking about everything and nothing, when he turned tiredly over to me. He smiled. "Are you alright?" I nodded my head.
"Mmmm." Was his response. His smile turned into a relaxed expression, and he went back to sleep.
Kaname and I have stayed good friends, but Ichiou isn't very happy about it. Ichiou wants Kaname to marry a working, female vampire. And by working, I mean someone who can have children.
I have made the discovery that I cannot have children. My body is small, and wouldn't be able to support a child, or most likely wouldn't. Even if I could, the child might not make it, with how I feed myself.
But back to Kaname and Shirabuki, Ichiou has a crazy idea that I'm trying to doom the Kuran line and seduce him. Honestly, Ichiou is a complete idiot. Unless Kaname's into children, I don't think I'll be seducing him.
Kaname hired a bodyguard named Seiran not long after moving into the Kuran mansion, and she's quite nice. I think of her as a sort of mother figure, even if she's in high school. Seiran acts more like an adult than a teenager.
And as far as the Day Class know, I'm not a Night Class student. They think of me more as a cute kid that accompanies the Night Class. Kaname and the chairman don't make me wear the uniform, so it's even more convincing. But I do take the assignments and I do study.
Kaname and I have built a stronger relationship, enough that he trusts me with his plans for the future. Most of the time, I spend time in his company. I don't have anything else to do, might as well spend time with him. Half the time we play chess and talk, the other half we just spend time in each others company or talk about
Most of the time, I sleep in his bed, even if I have my own personal bedroom. Kaname and I have become used to each other's company, having half the bed taken up by someone else's body and the other person sitting on the other side of the couch. We're used to each others presence, and it would honestly be lonely without him.
I could sleep for three more hours... It sounds tempting. I decided to close my eyes and sleep.
"Yume, wake up." I heard Kaname's voice and felt a gentle shake on my shoulder. I groaned and turned away from him.
"I refuse..." Recently, I've grown more used to sleeping with Nini in my dreams, and more fond of sleep. "Mmph."
"Yume..." He sighed and walked somewhere around the room. "I warned you." Suddenly the room was filled with a bright, orange blinding light.
"Gah! Kaname!" I tried to pull the covers over my body, but the disappeared as the veil monster grabbed them from my hands.
Kaname smiled evilly and picked up my small and squirming body. "You're late again, Yume." I stopped squirming and playfully hit the top of his head. You know, sometimes it pisses me off thinking how tiny I am.
"Idiot."
After so long, Kaname became a bit more open with me, but still reserved about the more serious things, like his plans and some of his feelings. I wonder sometimes...
But, he's an emotionless robot wearing fifteen masks without a personality outside of 'just us'. Although, he seems to be less reserved with Yuuki, but not so much. He just smiles and puts more emotion into his voice.
I walked over to the walk-in closet and Kaname walked out of the room, closing the door without a sound behind him. I went into the bathroom and changed quickly out of my nightgown dress and into a casual dress with long, skinny sleeves with the skirt reaching almost below my knees.
Because I looked like I should be in Middle school, the chairman and I agreed to make me a night class 'helper'. I look for the night class when they run out of the classroom, and I cleanup the class if they've made a mess. I also transport textbooks around. I may not look it, but I can carry a lot of books. For an 11 year-old.
I finished changing and walked with Kaname into the giant, gray room. It wasn't really a glowing white. It was more of a depressing gray in a poorly lit room. Apparently vampires these days were to busy living in Victorian days that they couldn't upgrade their lights from candles and their style.
Kaname spoke. "Shall we go?" The vampires in the room nodded, and we all walked out into the bright daylight and screaming fan girls and shy boys. The two prefects were off to the side in day class uniforms: Kurosu Yuuki, or who is supposed to Yuuki Kuran, and Kiryuu Zero, some guy but by a vampire named Shizuka and is special or something.
I haven't talked to him much, but I know he's an idiot.
Anyways, we walked into the crowd as usual, and Aidou did his thing where the fan girls went crazy over his gun thing, teasing Yuuki.
I looked over and saw Kaname crouching next to Yuuki, helping her up, then Zero came along and grabbed his arm, trying to 'protect' Yuuki from a vampire. They were talking, but I wasn't really paying attention. It was the normal routine. They we're probably saying something like...
'Hey you bastard vampire, don't touch her.'
'Hey mister disciplinary.'
'Kaname wasn't doing anything wrong!'
'Ooh sure, let's run away dramatically now as I grab your wrist!'
Yeah. Only sometimes they don't runaway because of the day class. And if you couldn't figure it out, I find them annoying. Zero's just touchy, and so is Kaname!
"Yume, let's go." I looked up to Kaname and nodded.
As we got farther away from the day class, I spoke. "You know, it's pointless to keep doing that. It's kind of childish." He looked over at me.
"Childish?"
"Your doing it to piss of Zero, aren't you?" He had a surprised look as we neared the door, but looked ahead and emotionlessly.
"Not really..." I giggled. These were the times that were most comfortable. The times that he would vaguely let his emotions run wild. I like the slightly childish side of him. It's comforting.
The night class opened the door, and we all went to our classrooms. The night class may not be very big, but we all use four different classes to make sure it's not crowded. Me and Kaname stay in the same class room, but everyone has atleast one class in here with us to watch over them.
But, we don't really do much, we have less class periods than the day class because one of them is more of a study hall.
We entered one class room, and an old vampire with white hair eyed everyone as they walked in. Me and Kaname sat in the usual spot, with him in a chair and be on the window.
Once class started, he spoke in that 'old man' way, which was how I described it. "The effectiveness of the blood tablet, which the nightclass has developed, has been accepted worldwide."
Wait, since when did we all develop the blood tablet?
"All of you are the pride of this school, and students of the night." I stifled the laugh that always came after those words that people spoke.
Souen Ruka spoke lazily. "That was no big deal."
Ichijou Takuma spoke after her. "That was just a group study."
"That Kiryuu really irritates me!" I looked over at Aido, who was scribbling in his notebook book (which contained hilarious pictures of either Kiryuu doing something stupid or a picture of himself), had an angry look on his face like he was ready to beat Zero to a pulp. Aidou sounds in love with Kaname, much like the other times he speaks of his adoration. Even if he doesn't say it directly. "Just who does he think he is?! Grabbing Dorm President Kuran by the arm!"
"Oh you sound like someone in love."
I agreed with Souen. "Yeah, I'm not the biggest fan of Yaoi. It would be weird to see Aido with prez."
"As if! I'd kill the disciplinary member with my own hands!" Aido looked over at me with 'ice' in his eyes.
Often, I called Kaname 'prez' or 'president' when in public, to be more formal. It's better than his first name without honorifics.
Ichijo looked up at me, and chuckled, nodding. "I recall a few anime shows beginning with the main character hating the person he soon falls in love with!" We teased Aido. It was one of my favorite hobbies to pass the time in school. And this topic came up with ease almost everyday. And the secret broken items he keeps in his room is just to much to not laugh about!
"Shut up! Yume-sama!"
Shiki spoke up. "Oh, but the girl looks yummy." Kaname, reading his book, stopped mid turn. I looked down at him, and pat his head so he didn't yell at Shiki. Not that it helped that much.
"Time to feed." Rima through a few of the blood tablets towards his mouth.
Souen spoke. "You seem awfully interested in her, Kaname-sama."
"Ah, I guess you could say that."
Souen suddenly seemed to drop into a sad mood and took it out on poor Aido's hand with his own notebook. "Ow. Ow! Ow! OW!" He got up from his seat and slammed the notebook onto the desk. "Ruka, I'll kill you!"
Kaname and Takuma started to suddenly talk about the moon, and I stifled my giggle once again. "The moon is going into hiding."
"Right from now, it's our time." All the vampires eyes had suddenly turned red, being intimidating for no good reason.
I whispered under my breath and sighed. "How dramatic." I threw my legs over the ledge of the window, and sighed again. "I don't see anything so important about the moon." Maybe it's because I'm not a real vampire, but I decided not to say that last part. It's pretty private.
Me and Kaname were walking along a path next to the main building where all the classes were. I was pushing a cart to a class and Kaname accompanied me. "Are you sure you don't require any help?" I looked up at him and smiled.
"If I ever do, I'll ask only you. Kay?" He nodded worriedly.
Did he know about it?
As we walked along, I smelled the familiar scent of Yuuki. Yes, scent. As I had gotten older and my body had developed new interesting abilities, I couldn't really 'sense' anyone like regular vampires, my sense of smell had just improved more than a regular noble's. Not that I have human blood. Actually, I'm on a whole new level of Pureblood vampires. But I still can't tell if that's good or not.
Kaname spoke. "Thanks for patrolling the grounds." She gasped, blushed, bowed, and ran off.
I stopped pushing the cart and kept staring off at her. She remembered a time when Takuma was talking to Kaname, and she had overheard their conversation about abiding the human's rules, and how hard it was. He mentioned Yuuki, saying she was interesting. I didn't really understand what he meant, but that might be because I know about her.
"'Interesting indeed,' eh?" I kept pushing the cart, ignoring the thoughts and going on my merry way with Kaname at my side.
I was watching by the sidelines as two day class students tried to wiggle their way into the main building. How annoying. When was a damn prefect going to show up? I don't like dealing with the day class. They always say I'm cute and pinch my cheek like some old lady.
The day class students had short ginger hair, one with blue eyes and one with green.
Then, finally, Yuuki showed up and started to to talk to them. I was watching in a tree from above, almost lounging silently. She jumped from the roof and landed infront of them, showing her badge.
"It is against school rules to wander around at night! It's dangerous, so go back to your dorms."
Green eyes spoke. "We came to take pictures of the nightclass."
Blue eyes started to talk as well, but when she also tried to get up, she showed her knee injury, which was what got me here. I was making sure a prefect did their job, and no one was severely hurt along the way. It's part of my job.
Yuuki worriedly ran over to her. "Are you hurt?" She looked and saw the small bit of blood. "Oh no, you're bleeding! Hurry and get back to your dorms!" The girls started questioning her as she was pushing them towards the day class' dorms.
I smelled Aido and Kain, almost as fast as Yuuki did. Only that was more of a prey's instinct for her. She got out Artemis, the weapon that held more meaning than she would ever know, and turned around threatening Aido.
"N-Night class Aido Hanabusa-senpai, Kain Akastuki-senpai!"
"No way!" They held each others hands in a fangirly way. I tried not to laugh out loud.
Heheh, they were totally gonna regret whatever it was they were doing. At least I've finally required stealth skills. Aido started in a hungry voice. "Geez, we came because we smelled blood. You're so mean, Yuuki-chan. Really, we just came to see..." He trailed off, trying to hide his eyes, which had momentarily turned red. He held his head up in pleasure, with a creepy smile.
Yuuki hurt herself on the way down from the balcony. "Back off!" I tensed up. I was getting ready for a fight, and I would see what happens. I'm a witness, but that's just one of my jobs at this school.
"You smell so nice."
The fangirls almost yelled. "Oh my god! He said we smell nice!" I snickered. Idiots.
He grabbed onto Yuuki's Artemis, and made his way down to her hand gripping it tightly. Artemis wasn't reacting the way it should to Aido. Why?
"Did you fall?" He opened his mouth to show his fangs and his eyes glowed red.
I guess the fangirls finally realized what he meant by 'smells nice'. "Oh my god! Are those fangs?! He's a vampire!" They fainted dramatically.
She dropped Artemis and tried to pull away, but he kept a firm grip on her wrist, trying to squeeze blood out from her wound. Honestly, what did she think would happen when she jumped from a branch? "Your blood smells so nice. Maybe just... one taste?" He grabbed her and pulled her back into his chest. He brought her wrist to his fangs and poked them, and sucked on it quietly. When he was done, he restrained her arm once more and leaned down.
"May I partake from your neck?" Almost as soon as he said this, Zero came running and pulled her from Aido. He was pointing his gun at Aido, his finger caressing the trigger.
"Don't touch her, vampire." He hissed out the last word. Akastuki was sitting by, still, but got a worried look on his face. Yuuki was a bit slower, but not fast enough as his finger pulled back on the trigger.
I felt it. And with what food I had had in the last month, it was no easy task to accomplish what I did in a millisecond. I'm quite proud, actually.
I pushed myself from tree, breaking the branch off as I summoned my sword with my hand reaching out, right before the bullet could hit the materialized metal, that couldn't be broken unless I willed it to do so.
As time seemed to stop and then fly back to normal, the bullet squished up against the sword and fell lifelessly to the ground.
I was standing next to my sword. It was almost bigger than me. It had a black handle. The rest of it was wide, and it looked very heavy. It was like thick paper, and one side was a straight line down, and the other was jagged spike-like shapes. It didn't look like an 11 year old could hold it.
This was a power of mine. I could summon something as long as I knew what it looked like and how to use it, and if I wanted to make it even stronger I had to know major components that made it. I could copy it, and use it to my liking. I chose this one sword I saw from Kaname's memories, a legendary vampire hunter weapon. But it was destroyed and used for something else because no one could pick it up, much less swing it around.
And it was only one of my powers. I could also use it to make something that I don't know about, such as armor. I would rarely use it since I had no reason to, but I could make a shadow like armor that would have a brace around my wrist. My mind was something on a whole different level, and my reaction timing was great. My mind was more connected to me. It's actually quite amazing.
The only reason I look human is because my mind evolved with surroundings to look normal, and when something attacks me, my mind will work on its own and try to dodge it, such as moving my body to certain places, and moving around vital organs. Weird, huh? My mind is different than a vampires. It works in my favor for survival both emotionally and physically. And, if someone were to perhaps blow me up, or cut a limb off, my mind has copies throughout my body, and can manage without the rest of my body. If blown up, my body will automatically come back together, slowly piecing itself like a puzzle. Same thing with limbs, only less complicated.
So the braces on my wrist will cover whatever is being hit along my arm, it will spread around to that without me having to worry. I guess my brain does it for me, but I'm a part of my brain. Weird.
I took my sword from its place in the ground and held it out in front of me. It was light, but also heavy. No one else could pick it up, except me. It was heavier, and thus more power.
Yuuki looked at me weird and Aido was frozen to the spot. He was scared of me.
"Y-Yume-san, what are you doing here?" I looked over at her.
I smiled. "I smelled your blood. I was just doing my job." She looked at me I question.
"W-What's that?"
I held my finger to my lips in a hushing way, teasingly. "Perhaps another time, right Kiryuu-san, Aido-kun?" Kaname and Ichijou came out from the trees.
Kaname looked annoyed. "I will report this to the headmaster." He picked up Aido's collar, and he was scared. Kaname looked back at Kain. "You are guilty as well, since you didn't do anything to stop Aido. Is that alright, Yuuki?" She blushed and bowed.
"Yes! But, about the students..." Seiren popped out of nowhere and started to erase and change memories.
"Their memories will be modified. And Aido and Akatsuki will be punished." He looked over at Yuuki, and then me, without saying anything more and dragging them off to the headmaster's. I heard Aido complaining, pushing Kaname's buttons.
"But Hime-sama was there too!" Kaname ignored him and kept going. I turned to Yuuki and Kiryuu, who were walking off. Well, more like Kiryuu dragging Yuuki.
I walked over to Seiren, who was just finishing Blue Eyes. "How's a going?"
She looked over at me as my sword was slowly disappearing into a shadow like mist. "Are you alright, Hime-sama?" She had worried eyes, but still had her mask.
I smiled. "Of course I am! And drop the 'Hime-sama' crap. We're alone, Seiren!"
She looked away towards the day class students. "Please help me carry them, Yume." I clapped happily and squealed.
"Yes! But..." I had evil, grin now. "Only if I get to spend alone time with you in the dorm!" Wow, that sounded more dirty than I intended.
She looked to the side hesitantly, than back at me. "Yes. Let us do that." I smiled widely and hugged her as tightly as I could.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" I was very happy! Seiren rarely ever shows emotion through her face, so any hesitance was great! It meant she was opening up to me! At least I think so. "Alright, Blue Eyes! Let's go."
Hello! So that was chappie 11, I hope you liked the entrance into Cross Academy! And did anyone notice the big resemblance at the scene where Aido drinks Yuuki's blood to the anime? And then it got almost completely off track. Yeah, I was completely off track, but that was because for half of it, I had internet, the other half I didn't. But I'm trying to make it as similar to the anime as possible, just so I can hopefully pull off making the personalities correct.
Sorry it took a while. I disliked explaining the whole Cross Academy thing. And I'm sorry if you don't like how Kaname is. He's just friendly with Yume.
And, I think I might make this into a love story. I said I wasn't sure before, but now i think I want to, but its kind of weird considering Yume looks like she's 11. Also, just so you know, NO LEMONS will be put into this story. I don't have anything against them, I would just rather write a story without it. Also, I think that in the middle of Akumu, I'm going to put up a short story. I think that would be nice. I have an idea for it, too.
Since this chapter was one episode long in the anime, I am going to shoot for 2 episodes in one chapter. Hopefully I can still make it within a month.
