Chapter 17: The Fight Begins
I walked around campus wait for a level E, but so far nothing. I have been hoping to kill of some so that there isn't many that we will have to kill later, also it would be easier to protect the humans. When I had first started to walk around I made a quick stop at my dorm room to pick up some weapons, I have them hidden in my jacket, I also have my sword at my side. After a little while I saw my uncle and the headmaster talking, I started to run towards them. I heard my uncle say that he was given an order to kill Zero. They were going to fight but they didn't. I ran up and stopped when I was close enough.
"Naomi? how is Yuki?" the headmaster asked
"She's fine, she has my brother and Hanabusa protecting her" I said
"I see" said the chairman "I'm glad" Then Zero came down.
"Zero" said the chairman
"Is something wrong?" I asked
"So then you've come to kill me" said Zero
We all noticed something is wrong with Zero so we prepared ourselves in case we have to fight.
"Ha of course you have, after all I am a vampire... come on, do it" said Zero
"Zero, stop it" said the headmaster
"I don't think he can" I said
He than came and attacked us. My sword was at my side but Zero was to quick and I ended up blocking his attack with my arm. All three of us had to fight him off. I eventually got him pinned against a wall.
"Zero! Please remember who you are! Remember who I am! I thought you wanted to protect me!" i said to him but I didn't get through to him. He threw me to the ground instead. He went to attack me but my uncle and the chairman restrained him. I stood up and brushed myself off. Then i helped my uncle bring Zero to a place for him to calm down. When we go there my uncle threw him down, i ran over to him and kneeled down beside him and put my hand on his shoulder.
"What are you getting so worked up for? Who do you think I am anyway? If I wanted to hunt you down I would have done it a long time ago. The Hunters Association and the senate are all in bed in this. The Hunter Association, this Academy, this whole world is rotten. Don't get me wrong I still intend to kill vampires, just not you. If your gunna sit around and feel sorry for yourself than stay her, till you clear your head. Maybe then you'll find a solution, I'll say just one more thing. You are a vampire hunter" my uncle said placing the bloody rose down and left.I could see that Zero's hurting, so I put my head on his shoulder, and hugged him. He stiffened for a second but relaxed.
"It's going to be OK Zero" I said "Things will get better" I released him then walked towards the door. "I hope that you can join us. We won't be able to do this without you" I said then walked out. I had another vision, I saw Ichiru offer himself to Zero, and Zero drinks his blood, so that Ichiru can live in inside him. I drop to the ground and think "So Ichiru does end up dying at a young age, no, he lives on inside Zero" A silent tear fell down my cheek. I almost didn't sense the presence of a level E near by. But when it attacked I turned around and kicked it. It flew into a tree and I threw a knife into the vampire, and it turned to ash. I walked up to the tree and grabbed my knife. I put it back into my boot and went to find my brother. I found them and Akatsuki saw me first.
"Naomi we have to keep the day class students safe and out of harms way" said Akatsuki
"Yes I know i just came to tell you that level E's are starting to appear, I just killed one" I said
Akatsuki nodded and me, him, Ruka, and Siren all started to walk off to find more. We walked around until we found some vampire's that attacked us when they saw us. We fought them off. Ruka was able to get them to kill themselves, or each other, Siren is able to use knives to kill, Akatsuki is able to use fire, I was able to do many things but I was only using my weapons. Ruka wasn't paying attention and one had almost got her when it's body was covered in ice, and burst. When I see him I look around and I don't see Yuki with him.
"Aren't you supposed to be protecting Yuki Hanabusa" I ask
"Uh yeah but, she gave me the slip" said Hanabusa
"What! It was your job to protect her and you let her slip away and out of your sight!" Ruka yelled
"Ruka yelling won't solve anything, and it won't help us fin Yuki either" said Akatsuki
"He's right we should go find her, she has no control over her power and she can't use her Artemis rode either" I said. After that we all took off running to find her. I then see where she is and that she is in trouble, I quickly change direction and I yell at the others "Come on Yuki's this way and she's in trouble!" and I keep running. When we break through the trees we see that Yuki is about to be attacked when Akatsuki saves her.
"Yuki! Are you alright" I say as I run up to her
"Yes I'm fine" says Yuki. I stop and give her a hug. I let go of her and look at her.
"What were you thinking? Rido Kuran A.K.A. your uncle wants your blood to make himself more powerful to destroy you, Kaname, us, and this Academy" I say to her
"Kaname will be able to kill him won't he? I mean he is strong and powerful" said Yuki
"He can't, don't ask me why but he can't give the final blow to Rido. Don't worry though Kaname has this all planned out, all the way to the last detail. The only person who can give the final blow is Zero" I say
"How do you know all this?" asks Yuki
"Because I do" I reply to her "And you need to leave to get to safety"
"No I understand why you want me to leave but" Yuki began
"Would you Stop!" Ruka said, she was about to continue but Hanabusa stopped her.
"This is going to be a long and difficult battle, you know what your getting yourself into right?" asked Hanabusa. Yuki nodded, then we heard a gunshot. "It's from the main gate!" Hanabusa yells and we all take off for the gate. We arrive just in time.
" !" Yuki yelled
"Uncle" I yell as I run up behind him and put my hands on his shoulder. We were getting ready to fight when a wall of fire came up, then my uncle kneeled on the ground.
"Well, Well, you know when your teachers getting beaten up the least you could do is get her sooner" said my uncle
"Are you alright" I asked
"Did you get hurt" Yuki asks
"Just who are they?" asks Hanabusa
"Their ours, it's one of the Hunter's Associations dirty little secrets, they breed they're own level E's" said my uncle. We all look up to see three level E's jump over the fire and the headmaster kill them.
"Headmaster!" said Yuki
"Sorry I'm a little late, so are they back yet? Your memories of Juri your real mother?" the headmaster asks, Yuki nods.
"Very well, everyone protect Yuki or rather, Cross Academy" said the Headmaster than he jumped up onto the top of the gate. "This is as far as I will allow you to go!" said the headmaster to the level E vampires. He stuck his sword into the gate, it cracked then it collapsed.
"Leave these ones to me" said the headmaster
"No that's crazy he can't take on that many alone" yelled Hanabusa
"Headmaster!" yelled Yuki
"It's not headmaster, it's father" said the headmaster
"Your right father" said Yuki, He smiled than he jumped down, we all gasped Yuki yelled "Father no!"
"Your father sure is one crazy old man" said my uncle
"Everything he's done it to protect this Academy, let's go, let's find Rido Kuran" said Yuki
"Are you sure?" asked Hanabusa
"This is not a matter of what I want, this is a matter of what I have to do" said Yuki "In order to protect this academy"
"Haha you may not be blood related but you are his daughter" said my uncle "don't worry I wont let the old man fight alone" Yuki nodded and we all ran off. We soon met up with Senri and Rima.
"You guys are way late" said Senri
"Did you find Rido?" Akatsuki asked
"We didn't even have to look" said Senri "He has really bad taste"
"He's just way to Obvious" said Rima pointing behind her. We all followed the trail all the way up to the roof.
"That smell is" said Yuki when we opened the door. Then we continued running.
"I've been waiting for you Juri" said Rido we all all looked at him and started him down. "I'm so glad you came Juri are you ready to become one with me?" asked Rido
"You will have to come through us first said Hanabusa as we ran ahead of Yuki to protect her
"And we will reduce you to ash" said Rima
"And that's a promise!" I said
"Hm... such fools" said Rido, then all of a sudden we couldn't move
"Why can't I use?" Ruka said
"You are all vampires you can't lay a finger on a pureblood" said Rido "This is a fun night and I don't want to ruin it by being a selfish cad, so why don't you guys have some fun" All of a sudden we started to get surrounded by level E's.
"That's enough! Rido stop!" yelled Yuki running up to him. He than disappeared and reappeared behind Yuki and grabbed her.
"Let, let go of me" said Yuki
"You know you smell Exactly like Juri did" said Rido
"No!" yelled Hanabusa
"Rido licked Yuki's neck. She reached for her Artemis rod but it repelled her. The level E's are closing in around my neck, then I remember that it's almost exactly like what happened when my mom died. I started to tremble. "This time, there's no one that can save me like last time" I think to myself as their fangs sank into my neck, and I started to freak. More vampires came and looked for some skin to sink their teeth into. The others saw that I was freaking out. Hanabusa yelled "Let her be!" to Rido and that's when I remember that I must protect Yuki. Then she got Artemis and cut Rido.
"Artemis it worked" said Hanabusa
"But how is a pureblood princess able to wield vampire hunters weapon?" asked Akatsuki
"You see I am a Guardian, and no matter what I will protect this Academy, and not just the day class students the night class students as well" said Yuki
"That's the Juri I know, No wait that's Juri's daughter" said Rido
"And as for the rest of you, step away from those students right now" said Yuki, the vampires backed away and I started to calm down.
"Huh you seem to have a lot more spunk that Juri did" said Rido "Juri was a lot more dazzled than you are, indeed the very first time I had a Taste of her blood" than the ground under Yuki grew red vines and tangled her up in it.
"Let go of her!" said Hanabusa "This has gone far enough I wont let you... Ah!" said Hanabusa than he got struck and fell back.
"Hanabusa" I say and run over to him
"Come on cry out for help" said Rido "It's alright Juri cried the first time I drank her blood, she begged for Haruka to come save her through muffled tears, it was absolutely brilliant"
"What are you... Ah!" cried Yuki as the vines tightened around her neck
"Give it a try call out the name of the one you love" said Rido then he got shot. Yuki looked behind her and said "Zero"
"Get your filthy hands off of her right now!" said Zero
"Zero" said Yuki "Zero what did you do to Ichiru?"
"So dangerous" said Rido
"You monster" said Zero than his shoulder started to swell. "Zero" said Yuki
"Whats wrong?" asked Ruka
"I don't think he has any idea how to control his power" said Akatsuki
"Zero" said Hanabusa
"This is bad" said Senri, then his arm came down and caused the bricks to fly. We all covered our faces while Akatsuki covered himself and Yuki.
"Zero" said Yuki
"Hm... this is what happens when a former human devours his own twin" says Rido
"Rido" says Yuki venomously
"There is far more power than your human vessel can contain, you can't master all that strength so quickly" said Rido
"Zero" said Yuki again, and we all stood up.
"Yuki" said Zero standing up
"What are you?" Yuki asked
"Use your Artemis and cut me" said Zero
"Zero" said Yuki
"Are you out of your mind!" said Hanabusa
"There isn't any other option right now, this power is out of control, it's the only way to stop it" said Zero
"But Zero if I use the Artemis rode on you then" said Yuki
"Don't worry Yuki, that isn't a weapon that can kill me, remember our promise?" asked Zero, Yuki stood there for a moment than yelled "Zero!"
as she ran and cut his arm. Once that was done we realized that he has the bloody rose.
"Zero" said Hanabusa
"He has the bloody rose" said Akatsuki. The gun is glowing in his hand and he says something I can't make out.
"Hahaha interesting" says Rido "Alright fine if you want to play, kill me, I will resurrect every time"
"I choose to keep living" said Zero than he shot Rido
