Chapter 26: A Little Thing Called Revenge
Kain heard us approaching and spun round his green eyes angry and piecing.
"what are two doing get out of here!" He shouted to us but at that moment there would no be escape. We owed Kian and the night class vampires who had returned looked ready to pounce for us if we moved.
"were not going anywhere" Zero told kain and we walked up and joined him. Zero looked to his wounded shoulder worry lining his face.
"its not deep just a scratch" his voice did not even turned back to the vampires as they hissed at us.
"Why is she a vampire, she's a pure blood!"
"how has this happened?"
"what are they?"
Whispers went through the the looks of it Kaname had not told them anything. They thought that he was there friend as well as president but they had obviously been mistaken. He had played us all. I stood on kains left as zero stood on his right.
"You two shouldn't be here, and zero you've only just got better"
Zero sniggered. "I'm a hunter and these lot have attacked a Human. Its my duty"
"its my duty as the school committee member" I told him proudly. My blood was boiling due to the fact that they had harmed a student. I could smell his human blood thick in the air but it didn't bother me. It made me feel stronger. Stronger and ready to face them.
Adio stepped ahead of the group. His once blue eyes were crimson and glinting dangerously in the shadows.
"He killed him! He killed him! He will not live another day" The ground under him started to freeze over. It looked blue in colour and the ice crept forward steadily. Aido had always had an infinity with ice. But I had only seen this a handful of times in action. The solid smooth ground shined and gleamed in the remaining sun light.
I remembered the day I had found zero chained up and I also remembered Adio whispering sorry to me as he closed the door behind me. Why did he say sorry? He was under the control of Kaname but now he's not, so why say sorry but attack?
"Adio you don't have to do this anymore you are bound to no one!" I pleaded with him. He looked to me his eyes some how softened slightly but his gaze soon blazed once more.
"He was also my friend...Killed by a disgusting human!" his anger was boiling over, the rest of the group seemed to get more eager with every word he spoke.
"HE DESERVED WHAT HE GOT! HE ATTACKED INNOCENT PEOPLE FOR HIS OWN GAIN, HE USED YOU ALL BUT YET YOUR STILL DRAWN TO HIM" kains voice broke Adio's and the vampires turned silent once more shock plastering there faces.
"HE DIDNT TELL YOU THAT YUKI WAS HIS SISTER OR THAT HER VAMPIRE SELF WAS PUT TO SLEEP, HOW MANY MORE SECRETS DO YOU THINK HE KEPT!"
Adio looked defeated and fell to his knees staring bewildered at Kain his eyes changed to the electric blue but the ground remind frozen. It cracked under him and formed miniature ridges and caverns.
The rest of the group didn't seem to want to listen and one of the girls that I couldn't remember the name of but new to be Kanames most faithful servant took a knife from her pocket. She jumped over the ice and ran towards us her fangs barred. She was as swift as a gazelle and gracefully powerful in her running.
Kain was defenseless. I realized I was too.
Zero rushed infront of us and blocked her attack with the gun. Both the metals clanged of each other and the blow had them both stumbling back. Zero recovered first and held the gun at arms length his finger over the trigger ready and waiting. The girl stared at him anger filling her whole being but she looked to Kain. It was obvious she wanted to devour him.
"Its my fault he died, it was by my gun there for its me you should be after" Zero spoke loudly so the other's would hear. They hissed again amongst themselves but made no move towards us.
"You don't even deserve death" she spat at zero. "you've already survived level E there's not much worse then that" she growled at us.
"what?" me and zero spoke together.
"Zero isn't level E anymore?" I asked her even if she wouldn't reply.
She looked at me like I was stupid and got up of the ground still staring at Kain looking for an opening to get to him.
"He has taken pure blood he is no longer in a level E state" she gave us the information even if she didn't want to. She sounded robotic. Like a teacher board and telling the students the same thing over and over.
"You can cure level E by pure blood?" Zero asked her his eyes wide with shock.
"In some cases not in all" she told us then turned around and started to walk away.
Zeros arm fell to his side and he stared after her unable to speak. Zero was no longer a level E? That meant he wouldn't die. That meant I didn't have to kill him. It meant that he was normal. Normal for a vampire anyway.
"Were are you going?" Kain called after the vampires as they started to turn there backs. Apparently they had given up there hunt from the site of the bloody rose. Or maybe they had just gotten bored quickly.
"Don't you worry, we will find you again, and then we will kill you"
They all disappeared into the shadows hissing, there red eyes glowing. Adio was left still sitting there stunned, unmoving. The ice he had been admitting was creeping onto his knees. He didn't seem to care or feel its coldness.
"Im not, I'm not level E?" zero looked at me his face still in shock and I beamed at him in spite of everything that was happening this was the best news we all could of wished for. Kain had ignored there threat and also looking at him smiling. The cut on his shoulder didn't seem to bother him.
"I didn't know, I...i Guess I feel different...i feel stronger, but I thought that was just because ive had a lot of rest, I didn't think..." His face broke into a smile and I wanted to take a photo of it to always remember it. It was the happiest I had ever seen him.
I hugged him and he hugged me back still looking shocked but happy. I then turned to Adio. I had almost forgotten him but his ice cold presence was hard to forget.
I walked over to him slowly so he knew I wasn't coming to attack. He didn't even seem to notice my presence at all. I knelt beside him. I knew he wouldn't hurt me. He didn't have the drive to fight against us any more. He was no longer the puppet. His strings we no longer being pulled by his master.
I put my hand onto his shoulder and stared into his unblinking glossy eyes.
"What do I do now" he whispered his mouth hardly moving. "I was used all this time, just a piece to a chess set" his eyes remained unfocused and I felt sorry for him. He seemed young even if he had lived a long time. It seemed all this time he had only wanted to be accepted by someone.
"You can lead your own life now" I told him gently. He looked up to me his blue eyes tender and scared looking. Kain being wiser then he looked stayed were he was some feet away. Zero took a couple of steps towards me but remind a fair distance. His hand still held tightly around the bloody rose.
"They will come for you too now uno" Adio spoke to me but he seemed to be staring off. Seeing something that wasn't near us. "you should all leave, or every student will be in danger" He stood up slowly and I did too watching him closely.
"I never wanted to be a bad person" he told us while looking up at the sky which was now dark.
"ino you didn't" I whispered to him.
He looked over to Zero. "Take care of her" and then he turned around and started walking away. It seemed he wasn't going to tell us were he was going. And I hoped that he would do some good with his life.
"I will" Zero called after him as he disappeared into the shadows.
