Chapter 34

Hay, just a quick note. If anyone wants to Write me a chapter in hopes I'd use it like I did with that other one. Feel free. Just PM me and ask first. Or Ask in a review


Normal P.O.V

Ashlen was once again sitting on her bed as she listened to her My Memory music box. She stared at the dancing diamond ballerina as tears leaking out of her eyes. She still couldn't understand why Rido did what he did and now the nightmare she had made her fear him more.

Was it even just an ordinary dream or was it some kind of vision or sign? That Rido wanted to kill her and would use Aido's body to do it? Ashlen wasn't sure and she also wasn't sure if she wanted to find out. Maybe she'd be brave enough to face Rido if she was with someone but she didn't want to put that person in danger.

"Ashlen…………." The girl's head snapped up and she looked all around the room to where the whisper came from. It was really soft, gentle and Rido's.

"Where are you?!" She called out, half hoping he wouldn't answer, that the voice was just all in her head; a whispery memory.

"Ashlen, come to me." The same whispery voice came again. Ashlen shuttered as she looked out her window, where she realized where the voice was coming from. More tears leaked down her face.

"NO, YOU CAN MAKE ME." She shouted and let out an uncontrolled sob. She felt lucky that she sound proved her room so her neighbors wouldn't hurt her screams and think she was crazy. Although at the same time she wished someone could hear her; she didn't want to be lift alone.

"Ashlen, are you alright?" A female's voice asked. A moment later, her door was opened and Mikii got it; thanks to the spear key she had stolen. Ashlen looked at her in surprise.

"Mikii, you heard me? But I sound proved my room so no one could hear me from the outside." Ashlen said, rubbing away tears and Mikii smiled.

"I heard your voice echo outside from an open window in the hallway; your window is open; that is why I could hear you." She explained so Ashlen nodded.

"OK." She answered before looking out the window, listening to see if the voice came again.

"So, what's wrong?" Mikii asked, sitting beside Ashlen. The witch girl began to shed a new batch of tears.

"He's here. I heard him call out to me; twice." Ashlen said, whimpering and shaking her crying so great. Mikii frowned and scooted closer to Ashlen before looking out the window.

"I'll go tell him to get lost." The vampire girl said, standing up and walked to the window. Ashlen stood up as well.

"No, he'll just hurt you; I'm the one he wants after all." She said in an 'don't argue with me, I'm coming no mater what' toned voice

Mikii sighed deeply, hanging her head for a moment before lifting it to look back at the witch.

"Fine, but stay right beside me. Since I am a child a Rido, he would kill me; but you might have a point that he might hurt me." She ordered strictly, now her tone holding the 'do not argue with me.' Ashlen nodded her head. "Aright, lets go then." Mikii said, turning back to the window before jumping out of it. Ashlen followed close behind.

The two girls walked out of the safety of the Sun Dorm area and into the courtyard where the huge fountain was. They walked side by side as they both looked for any signs of a tall man with mismatched eye.

"Baker-Chan, Mikii? What are you two doing out here?" A voice from the said called out. The two girls turned around to see Aido and Kain standing only a few feet away.

Ashlen felt relieved to see the two other vampires; though the dream she had still fresh in her mind, so she didn't want to risk getting too close to the two vampire cousins. Mikii looked at Aido and, surprisingly, it held no glare or nasty look of any kind it usually had when she looked at him.

"He's here. Ashlen said she heard him call out to her a little while ago." Mikii said and Ashlen's eyes widened as she looked at her.

"You told him, Mikii, I trusted you." Ashlen said, really upset at her friend; she had betrayed her trust. She tried to rush off but the girl grabbed her arm to stop her.

"Ashlen, I didn't tell. I told Shiki, since he has a right to know, and that creep eves dropped." The vampire girl explained as she pointed her thumb back to the blond vampire, who was looking shocked then insulted.

"Well whatever, Mikii. Anyways, if he is indeed here, you should be in the safety of your room, Baker-Chan." Aido said, a small frown on his face. Ashlen sighed deeply.

"Yes, I know that but he still wont stop until he has me. I'm frightened he'll hurt you to try to get to me. I don't want to lose anyone else." Ashlen said in a soft, saddened tone as she once again remembered the screams of her parents before they were killed.

The two male vampires looked really confused, especially Kain since he wasn't sure who they were talking about. Aido hadn't told him what he had heard Mikii and Shiki talk about; he did it for Ashlen's sake, for her safety.

"Hay, Kain-Sempai, can you do me a favor and just go tell Kaname he's here? Don't worry, he'll know who you are taking about." Mikii asked the tall vampire with a sweet smile. Kain rubbed the back of his head.

"Um, sure I guess." He responded, clearing confused though he still left for the Moon Dorms anyways.

"Wait, Kain-Sama, I mean Sempai. I'll come with you. Aido, take Ashlen back to her room and stay with her." Mikii ordered as she started to run after the male vampire.

"Huh? But I'm not allowed over there." Aido called to the running girl. Mikii stopped running to look back at the blond male vampire.

"Just do it. I'll tell Kaname but he'll understand. Just trust me, OK " She called back, her tone annoyed before she turned back around to run after Kain again. Aido sighed deeply, shaking his head slowly before looking at Ashlen.

"Well, Baker-Chan lets go back to your room." He said, turning his body so it was facing the direction of the Sun Dorms.

"Alright." Ashlen said soft, nervous tone. She was still very nervous about the dream she had. I mean, what if Rido really was possessing Ashlen and was just waiting for a chance to get her alone.

Ashlen suddenly and quickly glancing towards a tree where she thought she heard something. After a small moment of staring and listening, nothing happened or was heard so Ashlen sighed, rubbing her head as she followed the vampire boy to her room in the sun dorms.

She hugged herself nervously as she walked, always looking side to side, and behind her to see if there were any signs of Rido.

"OK, Baker, which is your room?" Aido's voice asked, bringing Ashlen out of her trance of thinking to see they were standing by the Girl's Sun Dorm building.

"The one with the open window." Ashlen responded in a dull whisper, walking the way she knew lead to her room. Aido followed her close behind.

"You know that's not very smart; anyone can get into your room that way." Aido pointed out, his tone warning, and in a 'know it all' kind of tone.

Ashlen frowned and shuttered at the thought. Now she didn't want to be left alone more then ever; or she'd just shut and lock her window once she got back inside her room. That is if Rido was not already in there waiting for her; if he knew where her room was that is.

"Here we are." Ashlen announced when she got to the open window room. She climbed into the window then moved a little into the room to let the vampire boy climb in himself.

"Aw, you have your own room? I wish I did but I have to share with Akatsuki." Aido said once he was inside, pouting like a little kid and crossing his arms. Ashlen only ignored that statement as she sat herself down on her bed.

She picked up her teddy bear, hugging it against her chest in her lap as she once again stared at her music box. She started to cry softly again, the tears out of her control as they rolled down her cheeks. Aido saw this and he frowned, sighing deeply before he sat himself down beside her.

"I heard what he did to your parents. I feel for sorry for you; it must be hard to lose a loved one." Aido said in a strangely gentle and understanding toned voice. He placed one of his hands on Ashlen's back and rubbed up and down slowly

Ashlen suddenly lost all control and started to sob. He body slumped into Aido's side and her face buried into his shoulder. Aido frowned some more and wrapped his free arm around to her comfort her. This was his second time seeing her cry like this; the first time being at the dance.

A sudden evil, dangerous aura filled the room and Aido suddenly let out a grunt of pain before slumping off the bed and onto the floor; his grip sliding off of Ashlen as this happened. She stared at the boy in shocked surprise before looking behind her to where the aura was coming from.

Standing on the other side of the bed was a man in a cloak, though not just any cloak; a wizards' cloak. It was the same kind Ashlen had used the night she snuck home. The man, though his face hidden in the shadows of the hood, looked at Ashlen before at the boy again. He took a step towards Aido with a murderess aura but Ashlen jumped in front of him.

"NO, he's my friend, leave him alone." Ashlen demanded, spreading out her arms in hopes it'd help her stop him. The man did stop and his aura slowly disappeared. A deep, male, sigh was heard from under the before the voice came.

"As you wish, Ashlen." He whispered before he brought his hand up and over Ashlen's eyes before she could react. "Sleep, Ashlen." He whispered again before a light purple glow came from his hand. In only a few seconds, Ashlen fell limp in the man's arms.

Rido's P.O.V

'Finally, I have her.' Rido thought to himself as he glanced at the boy once more. He had the same scent of which was on the Baker's house hold couch that one time. If he didn't promise Ashlen, he'd kill him here and now. Though even if he didn't promise he couldn't. Rido needed to leave now.

So, holding Ashlen bridle style, and picking up the music box as well as teddy bear Rido jumped out of the window and hurried away from Cross Academy.


Hay, I'm still taking offers for chapter and flash back ideas. As you can see below I already used some. Also, as it says above, if you want, you can right me a chapter and I will use it in the chapter, even if it has to be a bonus chapter.
