I get to go to a wedding this weekend! I'm super excited 'cause it's my first friend to get married!

xxx Queen of Slayers: Wow, it's been a long time since I've been glomped. I'm glad you liked the chapter so much!

kankananime123: I'm not sure who Senna will be paired with. She is only about 6 or 7 after all. She's still got quite a bit of growing up to do before she starts dating.

Thank you to: starberries bite, Totally CRAZY and Hyper, hisanachan, Sakura02, Usagi323, xXxXMomoXxXx, Kizee, InsaneWolf42, Bonds of Hatred, and i-love-naruhina for reviewing! You guys rock!

Akatsuki Kain was always the calm one of the group. He never really liked trouble even though trouble always seemed to find him. He blamed that fact on his 'luck' of being Aidou Hanabusa's cousin. Not much made him angry.

The sight before him made his blood boil and his eye glow red.

His precious little Senna was strapped down to a metal bed. Before he even saw it, he could smell her blood. It was oozing out of puncture wounds in her arms and legs. Her silver eyes were barely open and were hazy. Doctors were standing around her, scribbling notes on clipboards, checking her vitals, and poking more holes into her arms.

The first doctor had barely noticed the redhead at the door before he was violently shoved into a wall. The other doctors were quickly disposed of in similar fashions. He frowned when he noticed Jadoku was not among the doctors.

"Akatsuki-ni…" Senna could barely speak and her vision was blurred. The only reason she knew it was him was from his scent.

"It's okay, Senna. We're here now." Akatsuki carefully cut the straps that bound Senna. He took off his jacket and gently wrapped it around Senna's body. He scooped her up into his arms with ease, frowning at the smell of blood surrounding her. "Hang on baby girl."

"You really came for me, Akatsuki-ni…" Senna smiled weakly. Tears filled her eyes. "I was so scared…I missed all of you so much…I hurt…"

"Of course we would come for you. You're our baby." Akatsuki whispered.

"Seeennnnaaa!!!" Aidou shouted as he ran up. His hands were covered in blood. "Are you okay!?"

Senna winced and buried her face in Akatsuki's chest. "Aidou-nichan, you're noisy…"

Aidou grinned. "Yup. She'll be fine."

"Senna!" Shuuchi ran over. "Is she okay!?"

"She's fine. Just weak." Akatsuki muttered. "We need to meet up with Kaname and the others." He led the way through the chaos that was the lab's hallways. Vampires that had been freed from their cells were attacking the lab workers while the human prisoners scrambled to get out of the way. Akatsuki led them into a small room where the others were waiting.

"Senna!" Yuki cried out and took the unconscious girl from Akatsuki. She sat on the floor and cradled Senna in her lap. "Oh, I'm so sorry it took us so long."

Mikiri moved to Yuki's side. "Is she alive?"

"Barely." Aidou frowned.

"Where's Senri-nichan…?" Senna mumbled.

"He and the rest of the group are dealing with Jadoku's men." Kaname sighed as he stepped forward. "You are so troublesome, Senna." He held his wrist to her mouth. "Drink up."

Senna wrinkled her nose and turned her head into Yuki's chest. "No…your blood taste icky…."

There was a loud crash outside the door. Kaname stood up immediately. "Aidou, Akatsuki, come with me. Shuuchi-kun and Mikiri-kun, I'm entrusting Yuki and Senna to you. Do not fail me."

Yuki handed Senna to Shuuchi. "I'm going with you too, Nisama!"

Kaname sighed. There was no point in arguing with Yuki once she decided on something. "You'll trust Senna to be alone with these two?"

Yuki nodded her head. "They'll take good care of her. Won't you?" She turned the two and smiled.

Mikiri refrained from rolling his eyes. Were all purebloods that high and mighty? He looked down at Senna's paler than normal face. He barely noticed the vampires running out to join the fray. "Senna, you need blood, right?" He held his wrist to her mouth. "So, take some of mine."

"No…" Senna stubbornly pushed his hand away. "I don't wanna hurt, Mikiri-kun."

"Senna, please," Shuuchi pleaded. "you need blood." His entire body was tense just from smelling her blood. It had tasted delicious to him the one time she had allowed him to drink from her. He pushed those thoughts aside. "Please, Senna."

"No…you'll hate me if I do…" Senna was crying now. Her eyes were barely open and she could hardly see the two boys crowding around her. "You won't like me anymore…"

Mikiri smiled as he wiped the tears from Senna's cheeks. "I could never hate you, Senna. Please…" He held his wrist to her mouth. He winced as Senna's fangs sunk into his wrist. He knew her strength was returning when she grabbed his wrist to hold it in place.

"Senna, that's enough." Shuuchi whispered. Someone was coming closer to the room they were hiding in. Someone unwelcome.

The door burst open and there stood Jadoku. He grinned at the three. Without saying a word he threw a gas bomb into the room before being tackled by a very angry Akatsuki.

Shuuchi panicked. He couldn't see much through the haze the gas had created. What was worse, he couldn't feel Senna in his arms anymore. "Senna?" He choked out.

"I'll get rid of this stuff!" Carine shouted as she appeared. With a flick of her wrist, a gust of wind swept the gas out of the room.

Mikiri and Shuuchi both looked down at the pile of clothes that lay between them. A small lump was moving inside. Mikiri hesitantly pulled the shirt away and gasped. There was a small, naked child blinking up at him.

"Senna!?"

Sorry it's late guys! What will Mikiri and Shuuchi think of Senna now? What happened to Jadoku? Review to find out!
