Chapter 11: Kami and Zero
It had been a couple of weeks since Zero was a pure vampire. Kami spent most of her time with Yori-chan. Kami hasn't seen Zero since his transformation. Kain sempi said that he was helping Zero to adjust to things. Yori-chan understood kami's pain since she also hasn't seen Kain sempi since the day after Zero changed. He told Yori-shan that he might not see her for a while. That was the day he gave Yori-chan a kiss on the cheek. She said to Kami that it was the best day ever and also a sad day. Ever since that day the girls became closer then they were before.
"It's almost the end of the school year," Yori-chan said with a cup of tea in her hands. "Graduations around the corner then," Kami said petting her rabbit Thumper. "How is it with vampire hunting?" Yori-chan asked. "So far there's been less vampires giving problems," Kami answered putting Thumper back in his cage. "Oh that's good," Yori-chan said with a smile. "Yeah, it seems like their settling down instead of being more noticed,' Kami said trying to give her a smile. "Kami, I know your worried about Aero, but don't worry. You'll see him again," Yori-chan told her with a smile. "Last year when we were to upset with each other to talk, he said that not talking to me was like killing himself some how," Kami told her. "Kami-chan," Yori-chan said sadly. "I'm glad Zero made it this far," Kami said. "Kami you do love him," Yori-chan said smiling as kami looked at her and smiled, "It's almost time for night class to come," Yori said looking at the clock. "I should go," Kami said and both girls headed out of the house.
Yori-chan went to their dorm room and Kami waited at the gate for the night class. The girls were in two separate lines waiting for the night class to start. Kami knew that the girls would do what she asked because they knew not to mess with her. As the gates opened Kami moved off to the side standing next to a single line of girls.
"Good evening everyone!" Aido sempi said. "Hi," a few girls said and blushed. Kami rolled her eyes in irritation. "Kami," a soft gentle voice said her name and she saw the owner of that voice. "Takuma Sempi," Kami said. "Why do you look so sad?" he asked putting a hand on her shoulder worried about her. "It's nothing," Kami said putting on a fake smile. "Kami, what's wrong?" he asked seriously. "It's been two weeks since I've seen Zero. I haven't heard anything about or how his transformation," Kami said. "What if I told you there was a way to see him," he told her quietly with a smile. "Sempai," Kami said surprised. "I knew it'd cheer you up," he said smiling removing his hand from her shoulder. "Is it a good idea though?" Kami asked him. "Zero has his hunger under control but he's still cautious. Once you get into the Dormitory, Kain will take you to Zero's room. Let him know you have my permission," Takuma instructed her. "Alright thank you sempai," Kami said hugging him. "Your welcome, now go," he told her with a smile. Kami released their hug and she ran towards the Dormitory.
Kami arrived at the dormitory and opened the door. She saw Kain Sempai look up from his book to her. Kami walked towards him thinking that he knows where Zero was. "Kain…I.." Kami tried to say but he interrupted her, "I know why you're here. I'll take you to him." Kain lead the way up stairs and to Zero's room as Kami followed behind him. She knew that he might not let her in. Kain knocked on Zero's door. Zero walked towards the door smelling Kami's scent. "Zero, she's here. She wants to talk to you," Kain Sempai told him. "I'm not ready to see her. Have her stand by the door," Zero said calmly. "Ok," Kain said, "Kami." He motioned her and she walked towards him. "Only talk to him. He can't see you yet," Kain explained to her. She nodded and went to the door. Kain left the two of them alone.
Kami placed her hand on the door. Zero leaned against it on the other side. "Zero?" Kami asked. "Yeah?" Zero asked her. "Are you alright?" she asked him. "Other than being bored, I'm fine," Zero told her. "Do you hate yourself for what you've become?" Kami asked. "No, I just hate that this happened," Zero answered. "Zero, I wanted to let you know…" Kami paused for a second, "that when I said I loved you not matter what, I meant it. Level E or pure blood." "I still love you too Kami," Zero said. Kami rested her head on the door knowing there was a connection between them and it was only the door in the way. Zero could feel Kami through the door.
He sighed and said, "How's the hunting?" "Slowing down a bit. Not as many vampires come out much," Kami said. "That's good," Zero said to her. Kami's watch beeped at that moment. "I have to go," kami told him. "Be careful," Zero said. "I will," Kami said. She walked out of the dormitory and went to guard the Night Class. She arrived at the house when she was done. She heard the chairman talking to someone on the phone. She walked past him but he stopped her. "Kami, Kiba's on the phone," the chairman said, "He wants to speak with you." He gave the phone to kami and walked away.
"Hey Kiba," Kami said. "Hi, now tell me why you've been so upset lately," Kiba said irritated. "It's nothing Kiba," Kami said. "When I get there I want an explanation," he told her. "Ok fine," Kami agreed. "How's the vampire?" Kiba asked her. "He's fine, just being cautious," Kami answered annoyed. "Good. Well I have to go. See you soon," Kiba said. "Okay, bye," Kami said. "Bye," Kiba said.
Kami hung up the phone and went straight to her room. She got into her pajamas and went to sleep. Zero sat outside her window keeping watch for anything suspicious. He had only been doing that for the past couple of nights. Ever since kami's Aunt told him and the others people would take Kami away, he had felt more protective over her. He was only able to watch over her after he had his feed. But he knew that by the day after tomorrow he could join the Night Class.
Kami woke up the next morning. She fed her rabbit and went to school. She felt that time could go by faster. But it didn't for her today. She and Yori-chan hung out most of the day. Then she had to go on duty. She was walking around on school grounds and saw a white wolf approaching her.
"Kiba," she said with a smile. "Hey long time no see," he said turning human and frowned, "Now explain yourself." Kami sighed and said, "I snuck into the dormitory to see Zero. Ever since he became a pure blood, I haven't been able to see or talk to him." "You miss him," Kiba said understanding how she felt. Kami nodded to him and said, "We love each other and I remember him telling me that not talking to me is like killing himself in a way." "Yeah he does love you, but he also wants you safe as well. So he has to do what he has to, to keep you protected," Kiba said. "Yeah," Kami said. "So, don't be upset, you got to talk to him," Kiba said thinking positive. "Yeah, it's just hard," Kami said trying to smile. "No one said life was easy," Kiba told her with a laugh. "Thanks Kiba," Kami told him. "Yeah your welcome. I gotta run, it's getting late," Kiba said. "Okay, be careful," Kami said smiling. "You too," Kiba said and turned back into a wolf and ran away. "That was a quick visit," Kami said and continued the night keeping guard.
The next day Toga Yagari asked Kami to go hunting during school hours. Before the chairman could reject, Kami left without saying anything. Kami went around the outskirts of town and she hadn't found any vampires yet. She was a bit surprised. She went inside an old ware house that smelt like fish. She heard what sounded like footsteps. Within a flash the Artimis was at it's full length and a few vampires showed themselves. All were male vampires.
"Hello Kami," A deep voice said. "Who are you?" Kami asked. "Friends of Morgan and Lord Darcia," he answered with a smirk. Kami gasped and glared at him. "So now you decided to show yourselves. You couldn't face me at the school?" Kami asked frowning at them. "You would we do that when we know you're a vampire hunter," the male vampire told her, "Let's see if your worth the fight!" They charged after her. Kami prepared herself for the fight tightening her grip on the Artimis.
Zero arrived at Night Class. He stopped for a minute as he saw blood splatter everywhere in his head. Kain Sepmai saw his reaction and was worried if coming to school was alright. All three, Takuma, Kain, and Zero caught Kami's scent. Zero's eyes widened, Kain's eyebrows furrowed together, and Takuma frowned and clenched his fists. Zero's eyes gave a glare as he ran off. Kain and Takuma followed running as well. Kami couldn't move as her body laid weak on the concrete floor. 'I can't do this. There's to many of them,' she thought. Cuts and bruises were on her arms and legs. Her blood was everywhere. She figured too much blood was spilt. "Still a fight?" the male said showing his fingers. Kami was on her hands and knee's barely keeping herself up from the floor.
There was a loud bang noise. Kami looked upp and saw Zero with his gun, smoke coming from it. The other vampires tried to get away but Takuma and Kain decided to have fun getting rid of them. Zero walked to the vampire he shot. The male was shot in the arm with a regular unaffected bullet. "Don't you dare think about hurting a pure bloods mate," Zero hissed at him. "A pure blood," the male asked. "Go tell your friends that are still alive that a pure blood has been born. And if you cause any trouble in this town, I can guarantee a cruel punishment," Zero promised to him. The male quickly rushed out of the room scared.
Zero walked over to Kami. "Kami," he said kneeling next to her. "She won't survive this," Kain told him looking at her. "What will help her?" Zero asked. "Life of what we are," Kain answered him. "No!" Zero said, "She won't be a vampire." "Zero, Kami said that she would be one if it came down to it," Takuma said, "She told me herself." "But I can't," Zero said turning her over so she was lying on her back. "You want to lose her like Yuuki?" Kain asked frustrated with him. Zero fists clenched, "No." "Zero," Kami said weakly, "It's okay."
Zero leaned towards her and kissed her neck like he used to. His fangs bit into her neck as he drank her blood. Kami's eyes were closed when he bit her. When he stopped, he pulled away, his eyes were a firey red. Kami opened her eyes and they were red like Zero's. Kami got up in a sitting position and watched her wounds disappear on her body. "Kami, you have to drink Zero's blood now," Takuma told her. "Why?" She asked him. "So you can be a pure blood like Zero," Kain explained. Zero nodded to her and moved his shirt showing his neck. She placed a kiss on his skin before she licked it. She bit into his neck and drank. When she finished, she wiped away the blood on her lips. "Now we have two pure blood," Takuma said. "Kami, your highlights are back," Zero told her. "Huh?" kami took the long pieces of her hair and saw long red highlights. "Odd," Kami said. "Come on you two, we have to tell the chairman about this," Kain told them. Zero helped Kami up and they walked to the academy.
They walked into the office. The chairman looked up in curiosity why they were there. "How may I help you?" the chairman asked. "Move kami to the Night class Head master," Zero answered. "WHAAA…." The chairman asked in shock. "Dad please," Kami said. "So, you've become a pureblood as well Kami. I guess I have no choice," the chairman said. "I will come here on the weekend Head master," Kami said smiling. "No! I still wanted you to call me dad," he whined sadly. "Dad, I promise I'll visit on the weekends," Kami said. "Yes, please do. Take care of her Zero," the chairman told him.
"I've been taking care of her," Zero told him. "I see," the chairman said fixing his glasses, "Is there room in the Moon Dormitory?" "Yes sir, she can have Ruka's old room," Kain Sepmai answered. "the bed has been made, and never used since then," Takuma said. "Well Kami, I suggest you stay there until you are able to handle being around humans," the chairman told her. "Yes dad," Kami answered with a nod. "Good, it's almost sunrise, you all should go and get some sleep," the chairman said. The group nodded and left. Kami got a few of her clothes from her closet and then she left with everyone to the dormitory.
"You okay Kami?" Zero asked her. "I just realized I'm going to be leaving Yori-chan along again," Kami answered him. "I'll tell her what happened and I'll try to visit her more often," Kain told Kami. "Thanks Kain," Kami said. "Yeah, it's been a while since I've seen her and well…" Kain paused blushing. "You miss her?" Takuma asked with a smile. "I didn't say that," Kain said turning more red. "He meant it though," Zero muttered and Kami giggled.
They all walked to the moon dormitory and the sun began to rise. The sun blinded their eyes as the looked towards it. Kami ans Zero looked away from the sun and entered the dormitory. Kami knew then that sunlight affected the eyes of vampires. Zero and kami followed Takuma to the room she was staying in. "Here you go Kami," Takuma said opening the door. "Thank you," Kami told him as she walked in the room. "I'll uh… let you two catch up," Takuma said as he and Kain left the room. "Thank you," Zero told him with a smile. Kami closed the curtains to get rid of the sun light. Zero turned on a light. Kami sat down on the bed and Zero sat next to her.
"So caught up time," Kami said smiling making Zero laugh. "We already did that when you came to visit," Zero told her. "That's true," Kami said looking at him with a smile.
Zero leaned towards her putting his hand on her face and Kami blushed. He kissed her and placed her hands on his chest. He moved his hands on her back as he kissed her passionately. Kami thought that they're catching up was an interesting way to catch up. He leaned more towards her to where they were laying on the bed. Kami unbuttoned his jacket and he let her pull it off. Zero also took off Kami's ripped up jacket. They continued to take their clothes off and got underneath the covers as they made love to each other.
