Disclaimer: I don't own vampire knight and never will (crying face)...I so wished i owned it though…

…..Ai….

Did you really have to do this?... Don't struggle to stop me anymore ... I have to atone for my sins…

But i don't want to imagine a world where i can no longer hear your voice... I don't want to know what that's like... If only i wasn't born .. if only i didn't existed.. then you wouldn't..

Yuki you are saying as if I...the moment he was about to say something else...the girl in his arms turned back and kissed his lips...shocked he didn't understand why she did this...when zero was right there ...seeing his bewildered expression she kissed him again...and for the first time in these years she showed her smile with tears in her eyes saying you idiot did you really think i was gonna blame myself...i wouldn't do that... I would never do that.. those were your choices and this is my choice ... With that she kissed him again ...a bit forcefully this time and flashed a beautiful smile while taking out her own heart in the process and throwing it in the furnace before kaname could even stop her...Kanane never wanted that ..he never wanted this for her... Angered and desperate as if on the verge of tears he asked why would you do that … in the end even the one person I wanted to protect the most… i couldn't protect you…

Ahh you idiot again with your self blaming…geez how long are you keep that up…kissing him again and again…never actually giving him a chance to say anything…

Yuki why are you doing this ?... Zero is right there…you love him…why are you willing to leave him for my sake when I am nothing but death…why are you doing this ?... Confused kaname asked…Zero please take her heart out of the furnace…kanane begged …

More than anything kaname really wanted to bring that heart out … it was just impossible for him… unless the fire is extinguished he couldn't do it…he couldn't take her heart out….

Yuki looked at both of them…she saw that they were both desperate to see her live…

Yuki why did you do this...i can't let it happen ..this cannot be happening…again he asked with tears in his eyes … Purebloods never ever cried but the most ancient one is crying right in front of her…because he didn't want it he really didn't want this for her….

Yuki kissed his lips once more as if to stop his next words which she knew were gonna be of his self loathing , blaming and grief …

And she spoke again Look at me you idiot…just look at me…and listen…

I love you Kaname … I love you… the answer that you have been so desperately seeking is just this…i love you more than myself …and a little less than our future children if we could have had one…she said that with a giggle…Shocking kaname … you are laughing at this..kaname being a little angry…

No i am not you idiot… Well… If atoning for your sins is your choice...then remaining by your side is my choice and you have no say in this my beloved and besides do you have any idea how long i have been in love with you ..just how much you mean to me... I don't want you to be alone ... besides no matter the place being by your side is the only fate i will ever accept... without giving Kaname any chance to speak yuki sealed his lips yet again…

Why are you doing this , yuki... Just why ?

Answer is literally one simple word…love nothing more than that.. nothing less than that …

Zero seeing this couldn't take it anymore...asked her what about me...did you even think a bit about me…

Zero you are the one of the most important part of my life...but i am really really sorry...this is the one place i want to be .. please forgive me if you can in your heart… besides i am not the girl you fell in love with… She is somewhere in me...but i am not only her… I have loved this idiot from a life before all of this .. I know both of you are shocked with this ... But I want to be with him whether dead or alive...this idiot love of mine…If you think I am giving up my life for nothing…then in no way it's that.. I just want to be with my husband in this journey ..

So please love me , mourn me and then let me go...live your life ...with that she gave him a forhead kiss...but i have always loved you yuki…

I love you too zero a lot actually... So please be happy for me ... I know what i am asking is very cruel... Thank you for being in my life…

Both Kaname and zero cried …

Yuki don't do this... please don't…

I am sorry but i already did it kaname...and i am not sorry for this...will you fulfill one wish of mine kaname … yeah yuki please say it…i will do anything for you…" If we ever meet again ... Will you love me again … " she asked Though his consciousness was fading ... He knew he could no longer dissuade yuki ...smiled and gave her a kiss on the lips ...and whispered "yes... Always….and forever"...before yuki could say anything else … she too felt her consciousness was fading..she placed one last kiss on his soft lips with her fading consciousness …before whispering let's meet in our dreams …falling on top of him..their hands interwined..

Yuki … zero cried…as he kept calling out her name…furnace took his bloody rose and transformed it into the most powerful weapon in the world…he felt the world was ending…but since they sacrificed their lives for this world…he won't let it go to waste…

Thus the fierce battle began between Purebloods and hunters…although many Purebloods died in that battle…but they still managed to have power and came to a peace agreement…more like they got scared of this powerful weapon…

With this zero felt as if his whole world crumbling down... He didn't know what to do... though because of their sacrifices... academy was secured...power balance was restored...but where were they ...why did they have to do this...just why … he felt as if everything was pointless … he no longer felt point in even killing vampires…he felt as if none of this ever mattered…

He kept thinking that ...and was unable to move from that site for around a month...Yuki and Kaname have been encased in ice by Aidou…

Aidou wanting to do something…found something in Kuran family's libraries…this was Kaname's old research on how to turn vampire into humans…if he can use this … he can in someway bring them back…he knew the World cannot go on like this…he can't see his precious people sad like this…

Like this two months passed that Aidou felt a disturbance Yuki 's body...he felt as if something was growing inside of yuki and on closer inspection found that yuki was pregnant... Zero and kaien used to regularly come to this grave and watched ovethem… Zero no longer feeling anything… One day when they came to visit … Aidou was shocked at this discovery and was stunned at this new founknowledge...He frantically called everyone and asked them to gather saying that he has something very important to share with them all … Yuki's best friend was also called as she too came to visit almost daily…To understand why her best friend did this…both Yori and Aidou knew their pain was nothing as compared to that of Zero..Zero started losing all of life…he was breaking inside but he didn't show it..all he could remember was her smile at that moment…currently that's the only thing that kept him going… As they all gathered around the ice coffin. Aidou announced to all of them …" Yuki is approximately two months pregnant now" Everyone was shocked at this statement ..how is this possible… I mean it's not impossible in that department …I mean how is the baby growing…said Takuma…Seiren followed soon after…yuki sama is carrying kaname sama's child…stunned…we have to save that child… Zero's mind couldn't register this…"what? Yuki is pregnant…she is carrying Kaname's child "... "Is that even possible?".. If it wasn't i wouldn't have called you guys… I confirmed with my own two eyes…look at this ultrasound.. there's a heart in there … it's beating…but we have to do something very fast…i don't know how long that little baby can

survive in there…we have to do something.. Zero's heart welling up with all sorts of emotions …mostly of yuki and this little life growing inside of her… I have thought about it… But it's going to be a very difficult procedure…we have to perform surgery on yuki and place the little one inside an artificial womb …this is going to be very risky…i don't know if the baby can make it…"then can't we just wake yuki up"...said Zero …"it would be impossible without extinguishing the furnace ….are you all willing to take the risks…" Vampires and Purebloods will all be on the lose…and we won't anything against them…we won't be able to hold them back… For now the safest bet would be to transfer this child in an artificial womb… i have already made all the preparations…i will need lots of blood…maybe a constant supply of blood..cause this baby won't be getting any from her mother.. The next few days were hectic…everyone was busy for the operations…they were happy with news of arrival of the baby…but sad at the same time that it's parents wouldn't be here for her… Through advanced surgery and surrogacy…they were thinking of surrogacy but this time around it would be impossible…as they didn't know about the complications…so it could endanger the mother as well although Ruka and Yori were more than ready to become baby's mother …

The baby was put in a artificial womb with stable environment thanks to Aidou 's and other doctors… Zero who was slowly and slowly dying inside found strength to go on..seeing this little life as the last chance to protect something dear to him…currently he only saw this little life as a ray of hope …he knew he had to protect this baby for yuki…He hated Kaname for taking yuki away with him… it's always was on his mind…what if he never let go of her hand that day…would she still be here with him…These questions were always on his mind…and his bloodlust was as always getting the best of him…but he knows now more than ever that he can't let this thought get to him…as he has to protect this baby..he was astonished by her will to live…how this baby survived…and he is going to make sure she survives and flourishes in this world protected by her parents…he no longer wishes to seek answers for all these questions…just wishes to protect her…he can go ahead and kill every vampire and revive them but what would it change nothing…he learned this from kaname how his craziness led to his downfall and death of one person closest to him…Zero was the first volunteer for this job of constantly giving the blood to the baby…and just like this three years passed.. And finally the day arrived when the baby was born…Everyone was gathered around…Zero was the last one to arrive at the scene…they were all at her side and staring at them…Ruka saw her and realised how much she looked like both of them how this little one was so like a mini version of her father with her mother's beautiful smile…You can see both Kaname and yuki in her…one look at her and you can say it's their child…then Zero came and looked at her…at first he didn't feel much…he thought the baby would look more like yuki…but she looked more like kaname…yet noone can deny Yuki's presence in her … because of her eyes…that shone…so you are the miracle of love..Life..Zero didn't know why he said those words and yet after looking at her that's the only thought that came out of his mouth…and soon she held his finger very tightly as if to never let go… Zero held her in his arms and said let's call her Ai…all of them just looked at him …this seems a befitting name for her … yeah let's call her Ai…Cross also came running to meet her…his beloved granddaughter…Cross took her in his arms and brought her to her parents…See Yuki it's your daughter…Her name is Ai…i won't be showing

her to you kaname…my daughter followed you in death…i hate you…but since today is a happy day i'll let it go… Then Takuma turned serious and told them we can't let others know of her existence…besides nobody seems aware of this little princess…so we should keep it that way…we don't have any Purebloods guidance for us…we won't know how to raise her…or we can just raise her… Why should we hide her…there's no point to that…we just don't need to disclosure her existence…Cross said i will raise her…she is my granddaughter..kind of they all wanted to raise her and be in her life…in one way or the other…As soon as Zero and Cross decided to raise her and take her away from that place…Ai started crying …they didn't understand why…even at their home she kept her crying not knowing what to do…they were at a loss…Then Zero's bloody rose fell by her side…and she took it in her little hands…she stopped crying… Cross and Zero saw this and realised her vampire instinct must be searching for her parents… This brought them a sense of loss…as to how they will raise her without her parents…Zero kept looking after her…never really leaving her side for a months…only when it was absolutely necessary…afterall he too was going to be the future president of vampire hunter association…

What do you think of this idea where yuki actually died with kaname…? Please read and review..
