Night Twenty - Zurie
I heard a commotion outside the office and Sebastian stood up and ushered my brother and I to follow him. We turned to the right and saw Kaname talking to Vivian, "Like you're the headmaster's daughter?" Vivian gawked, "K-Kaname. Kuran? Like thee Kaname Kuran?" Lord Kaname nods, "In the flesh!" A person runs and tried to tackle Kaname but he knocks him away, "Another assailant…" He looks at the boy and frowns, "You are?" The boy on the ground was Gabriel, "I am Gabriel Cross. Why are you here Vampire?" We hissed and he looks at us and his sword glistined. Kaname looked at it and opened his hand and the sword flies into his hand, "Put this away would you?" He growls and tossed it back to him. Gabriel snarls and sheathed it. "Now then, Vivian, Gabriel? Continue your duty okay? With Kaname back, I am sure the other vampires have felt his presence." They nodded and ran down the hall.
About three minutes later our Aristocrats came down the hall and gasped, "I knew it! Lord Kaname!" Aido bowed, "It is an honor to have you back." Kaname looked at them and frowned, "Hanabusa? Wait where is the others?" Ethan frowned, "You mean my dad? Oh they are no longer here I am Ethan, your Lordness." He looked at his Aristocrat classmates and nodded, "We are all offspring of your original Aristocrats Lord Kaname." Kaname nods, "I see, well it is nice to see that the Aidos and still up and so are your families." Headmaster Cross cleared his throat, "Let's continue this inside, shall we?" All of us but Lady Lucille and her Aristocrats followed in, we looked at each other with looks of uneasiness, "Kaname, would you mind telling them why you are here?" Kaname nods, "Yes, I am here because of those two." He nods at my brother and I. "They are looking for my lost daughter. I'll be taking over their place until they return. Or perhaps I'll come along, who knows." He looks at our Aristocrats and they had their mouths open. "Aido, Souen, Ichijo, Kain, Toya, and Shiki, close your mouths. It's not polite." Alaric mutters and they sat up straight and closed their mouths. Kaname laughed, "It's quite alright." Aido stood up and grabbed Kaname's hand, "I shouldn't have been so rude to you earlier." Kaname frowns, "When?" Aido gazed at him, "And your eyes- ngh!" Alaric slapped Aido and pulls him away, "Enough!" Aido whimpers, "Sorry I was out of line." Kaname chuckled, "Same bloodline, same attitude. Did I ever have to tell you, I slapped your dad a few times here too." Aido rubbed his face and licked the blood off of his cheek, "Father, like son." Kaname smiles and Headmaster Cross clears his throat, "So when do you guys leave?" Kaname shook his head, "I want Aido, Shiki, the three Purebloods to go find her. I'll stay here with the others to make sure they stay in check." The others frowned and pouted, "Aido? I get why Shiki going but Aido of all things?!" Andrew shrieks and Alaric slapped Andrew, "Stop, it's already been made."
We told Lady Lucille and she looked at us like we were crazy and wrote in her notebook, "If she's missing them she doesn't want to be found." Kaname looks at her and nods, "She is arrogant." We nodded madly and Alaric turns to his class and yells, "I have a favor for you guys." The vampires stood up and listened intently. "This is Kaname Kuran, he will be your Dorm President while I am away. The class whispered and a vampire raised a hand, "Is he really Kaname Kuran?" She asked and looked at him. Kaname nods, "Yes." He said and looked at Alaric, "Where is that half-Vampire?" I glare st Alaric and Kaname and I wrote, "None of your damn business." Lucille walked away and Kaname looked at us, "Why doesn't she speak?" We look at each other, "She is afraid of exploding the world in such. Don't mind her." I muttered, "Look Lucille, Kaname was here so he could help your Half-Vampire!" I yelled after her. The class looked at Lucille and back at Alaric, "S-So it was never Alaric!" Aido stuttered. Dominic looked down and Kaname nods, "Come here." Dominic hesitated and Samael jumped up, "First off Aido, she didn't have a choice. He was attacked by a Level-E vampire. She knew if she didn't turn him he would've died. So take your prideful ass and cry over something else. Our lady has taken enough abuse from your aristocrats. She had no one after her parents and brother were murdered. She was abused by her father's own parents. And you she isn't arrogant! I bet Zurie told you that. My lady has lost everyone she held dearly, her mother was the most caring woman and she wouldn't grow such an arrogant daughter. No one knew who her mother's parents but her father accepted her anyway." Aido grows red and starts shouting, but Kaname's eyes grow red and they shut up. Nimue glares at Samael, "They won't understand anyway. No one ever does, she gave away the only memento of her mother to someone. We're leaving… Alaric if you ever wanted a war then you will have to face the entire Western Hemisphere, Europe, and our allies. Let's go, and that means you too Dominic. Before you judge her anymore think of your actions and words carefully even though she refuses to speak, she is currently protecting us all from accidentally destroying this entire area. You all think you are just think about a young girl who has to live with seeing her parents getting murdered right before her eyes and being the living one to tell the tale." All of Lucille's Aristocrats and Dominic leave the classroom. All that was left was silence. No one dared to speak and they all looked at each other. "What just happened?" I looked at Aido and Alaric slapped him. "Not the time, Aido."After a while the Headmaster comes into the deadly silenced room. "I'm disappointed in all of you and most of all you Kaname. Lucille is returning to North America because there is nothing left here for her. Kaname the fact that you can't recognize your own granddaughter is simply shaming. So spent her life protecting that child. She's suffered losing her entire family and having to rely on just her self for protection from a young age. You all drove a child away, who has been hurting for years and you all added to her burden. You may not like her but that does not excuse the acts that you've made to her. Alaric I'm also disappointed in you the fact that you let your aristocrats slander others to the point of no return. You all judged her too quickly before you actually got to know her." The headmaster left the classroom and went incredibly silent. I look over at my brother and he look a bit shaken, "Alaric are you okay?" He looks at me and smiles, "I'm fine." I knew he wasn't but I didn't press the matter anymore. Soon Kaname disappeared and we all went back to the dorms. I walked up the stairs and I walked into Lucille's room, "It's all gone… She's really gone." I stare at her room for a bit recalling everything I did. I shut her door and I try to find Alaric. When I find him he's just sitting in his room in the dark, "She's gone, her room is empty. She's not coming back is she?" He nods and contemplates, "We drove her to this point didn't we. She was right, I never thought she was right about purebloods. We are selfish, cruel, and arrogant." Alaric looks at me in surprise and tries to comfort me. I walk away and he frowns, "Don't think like that Zurie." I turn to look at my brother in disbelief, "Alaric…. We made her leave, through all our arrogant matters and words! We didn't even notice that she had no one around her. She was right about everything but we didn't care enough to help!" I look at my brother and he seemed a bit hurt. I leave Alaric's room in frustration and I walk towards the entrance.
When I reach the entrance I get stopped by Alaric, "Where do you think you're going?" I shake off my brother's hand, "Where so you think Alaric! To fix our mess." I find my brother hurt but I look away. I spot a familiar figure and I rush to it, "Nimue!" The figure turns around and frowns, "Now what? You want to humiliate us even further?" I frown knowing my actions caused this, "I want to help make things right!" Nimue frowns and rolls her eyes, "Then find her yourself. Also just know that the estate won't be in the same place so start looking." Nimue suddenly disappears, "Well that's just great. Alaric I'll come back but I need to fix our mess." Suddenly a figure pops in front of us, "As do I. She told me after I met you two but I couldn't believe it." We look at Kaname as he pulls out a locket and Alaric sighs, "Then we're all going to fix this mess." We nod and we leave the dorms.
