Shattering Masks~2

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Vampire Knight

Enjoy the story lovelies! :3

I trudged up the door steps to the Kuran manor, eager to just crawl in my bed for a few minutes before I head out for my second job. I had a second job also with the Hunter Association, but it was a bit of a secret from everyone but Kaito and Yagari.

If anyone thought I was just sitting around and doing nothing about the fact Zero is being manipulated by a masked lunatic who knows mentalism spells, they were out of their damn mind. Kaito and Yagari has been helping me trying to find that woman and in return I help them with their hunts though of course I needed to be in disguise so no one knew it was me. However, Kaien wasn't to tickled that a mysterious woman with black hair and green eyes has been running around handling his hunters jobs.

I opened the door and closed it behind me. "Yuuki, I'm home!" I called.

I wasn't the only one having issues with men. A week after I moved back into the manor, Kaname suddenly disappeared and Yuuki kind of became a depressed mess. I walked over to where the staircase is and noticed her sitting on the steps.

Well that's progress, she hasn't been downstairs for a few months. If it wasn't for the fact I always go into her room to make sure she didn't attempt to take her life, I would have thought she was dead.

Her long hair was disheveled, and her throw over jacket was partially on. I walked over to her and sat down behind her. I pulled my small hairbrush I keep in my purse out and carefully brushed her hair out. "Are you okay, Onesan?" I asked her. She mumbled something under her breath and I cocked my head to the side. "I didn't hear you, what did you say?" I asked. "I'm...pregnant." She whispered. I stopped in mid brush stroke and looked at her surprised. Did not only our jackass brother leave her unannounced but left her pregnant with his child?!

I never liked my brother but now the next time I see him, he's a dead man.

"When did you find out?" I asked. "I attacked Aidou and drank his blood like I haven't drank any blood for a thousand years. He managed to get me off him and he made a comment he heard a smaller heartbeat in me." She whispered. "Two questions. Are you alright and is Aidou alright?" I asked. "I'm trying to take in the news, but yes I'm okay. Just still thirsty. Aidou is a bit drained but is scarfing down blood tablets." She admitted. "You're drinking for two so yeah you're going to be thirsty a lot." I pointed out. "I don't know if I want to be angry at him for leaving me with our unborn child or for being careless." She hissed.

"You can be angry at him for both reasons." I pointed out. She leaned against my legs and sighed heavily. "What am I going to do, Iris? I'm not ready to be a mother!" She panicked. "You're not going to be alone during this. You'll have me and...vampire pregnancies are different I take it judging by that look on your face." I commented when she turned around and raised her eyebrow at me. She nodded. "My point is no matter what you're not alone." I told her. She nodded and smiled a little. "Thank you, Iris, I appreciate it." She told me. "Hey us Kuran girls need to stick together." I told her. She chuckled and nodded. "Especially since it seems we can't trust our men to be there for us." She grumbled. "You can say that again." I snickered and sighed when my alarm was going off to tell me to get ready for my second job.

"You need to get ready for work I take it?" She asked. "Yeah...um...since you're now downstairs whatever you do don't freak out when you see someone with black hair and green eyes coming down the stairs. It's a long story." I told her and headed up stairs.

I headed to my room and quickly changed out of my blouse and business skirt and quickly changed into a pair of dark blue destroyed jeans and a maroon v neck shirt on. I slipped on my combat boots and fastened my gun holster on my waist. I slipped on my black leather jacket and shoved Ravek into my inner coat pocket. I quickly used the spell I have been using to change my hair color-that's all I could master with the transformation spell-and put my hair in a high pony tail. I slipped on a pair of green eye color contacts and headed out of the room.

I took a deep breath and headed down the steps. "Iris, you really have a lot of explaining to do when you come back home." Yuuki warned. I glanced over at her and smiled sheepishly. "I will explain everything I promise. Right now I need to head out because I have two hunters waiting for me impatiently in town." I told her. She cocked her head and sighed. "What the hell have you gotten yourself into?" She groaned.

"Will be part of the explanations." I answered and headed out the door.

Yuuki's POV

I shook my head as Iris closed the door behind her and placed my hand on my stomach. "Hopefully you don't inherit your aunt's tendency to find trouble." I grumbled.

Iris, what have you been getting into during the last three months?

Iris's POV

"Why are we meeting on a rooftop?!" I growled at the two hunters after I managed to pull myself up from the ladder. They looked over and motioned me over. "Kiryu isn't at his assignment and instead went here." Kaito whispered. I cocked an eyebrow and walked over to the two men. That is really out of character for Zero, even right now when he is not exactly himself thanks to a certain lunatic.

We all peeled over to see Zero coming into the building and I looked over at them curiously. "What building is this?" I asked. "A hotel, why?" Kaito asked. "I think I have an idea on how to get inside and see what's going on." I told them. "You're going in pretending to be a guest?" Yagari guesses. I nodded and looked at the two. "Unless someone has a better idea?" I asked. They sighed and shook their head. "Alright in that case move aside, I'm heading down." I announced. "Wouldn't that make the plan complicated?" Kaito asked. "Do you really think someone is going to see me at nine o'clock at night when I'm wearing dark clothes?" I asked. "The plan could still work as long as she lands on the road." Yagari pointed out.

Kaito sighed and both men moved out of the way. I took a few steps back and sprinted towards the edge of the rooftop. I leaped off the building and braced myself for the landing. I landed on my hands and knees on the road and hissed a little from the stinging pain in my palms.

That kind of smarted.

I stood up and brushed myself off. I headed inside the hotel to see Zero waiting at the receptionist desk. I approached behind him at a decent distance so he wouldn't be suspicious. He rang the bell on the desk and groaned. A gentleman stepped out from his office no doubt and looked over at us surprised. "Sorry about that! I didn't mean to keep you two waiting. How can I help you?" He asked.

"I'm hear with Suki Kuro, can you tell her boyfriend," the nasty feeling of jealousy and anger boiled inside me as I grimaced the moment he said that," Zero is downstairs?" He asked. The receptionist nodded and looked over at me. "And you ma'am?" He asked. "I'm just here to get a room for the night." I told him as I did my best to disguise my voice with a British accent. He nodded and motioned me to come over. Zero stepped aside and I approached the desk. "Will it just be yourself for the night?" He asked. "I have two colleagues waiting outside for me to get a room. We're fine with all three of us sharing a room if you don't that much room." I assured him.

May as well bring those two in so we can do a stakeout here.

He nodded and looked over at Zero then at me. "Could you wait a second while I notify one of our guests her visitor is here?" He asked. I nodded and watched as he pulled out a phone to call Suki. He dialed some numbers and waited a moment. "Yes, Ms. Kuro, a gentleman by the name of Zero-Okay I will tell him." He assured her. He hung up the phone and looked at Zero. "She will be in room 302." He told him. Zero nodded and headed to the elevator.

It pays to be nice.
