DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN VAMPIRE KNIGHT!
Enjoy the story lovelies! :3
"I'm sorry, but President Cross is unavailable at this moment. Come back in an hour." I informed the Archivist when I saw him carting a stack of books to Kaien's office as I was heading to main gates. He glanced over at me confused. "Where is he?" He asked. "He's in a very important meeting and cannot be disturbed." I lied. Well maybe I'm not lying, he is having an important meeting with sleep at the moment.
The Archivist sighed heavily and nodded. "I'll be back in an hour then." He told me. He headed back down the hall towards where the archives are located. I sighed and shook my head. Well at least I managed to get Kaien an hour nap in.
I was about to start heading to the exit when I saw Zero heading towards me. I cocked an eyebrow when I noticed the urgent look in his eyes and crossed my arms over my chest. "You're needed at the main gate, there is a vampire wishing to speak to you." He told me. "Well I guess it's a good thing I'm heading that way anyway." I told him and tried to step around him.
He blocked me and I looked at him confused. "Kaito and Yagari both agree that for your safety I come with you to speak to the vampire." He informed me. I blinked and stared at him to see if he was telling the truth. The concerned look on his face told me the vampire clearly didn't try to approach peacefully which made me feel uneasy and I nodded.
"In that case let's go see this vampire." I told him and motioned him to lead the way. We headed to the main gates to see Kaito, Yagari, and a couple other hunters standing by the gate looking as though they are waiting for one wrong move from our unannounced visitor.
I stepped around Zero and saw it was a messenger from the vampire council who looked a little alarmed. "Everyone stand down, it's just a messenger." I told them and watched as they slowly lowered their weapons and then had the gate opened. I stepped out and sensed I was being followed. I glanced over at Zero confused. "I'll be fine, it's just the vampire council's messenger." I assured him. He clenched his jaw and nodded. I looked at the messenger and smiled reassuringly. "Sorry about that. Are you here to inform me about a meeting?" I asked her. She blinked and nodded. "Y-yes, My lady! They request your presence as soon as possible," she glanced over at Zero and then back at me," and to at least bring a hunter with you." She informed me. I nodded and glanced over at Zero. "Do you mind coming with me to this meeting? It's no doubt a trial with an aristocrat and they just want to make this easy for everyone." I told him.
"I'll take the Association's van." He told me. I nodded and glanced over at the messenger. "tell them I'll be there soon and will be arriving with one of the hunters." I told her. She nodded and bowed her head. She turned around and walked away. "Why did you ask me by the way?" Zero asked. I glanced over at me and shrugged. "You seem to be determined to protect me and I like spending time with-" I covered my mouth quickly when I realized what I was about to say. However, it was to late clearly because he smirked and nodded his head towards the Association.
Well at least he wasn't offended, disgusted, or upset about that confession. Would be more embarrassing if I told him I love him right now.
I couldn't help but think back to earlier when I woke him up and that familiar look in his eyes. Could Zero be slowly breaking out of Suki's hold? A part of me hoped so, because that would mean I might be able to help him break her spell on him and then I can rip that bitch's heart out and crush it!
I heard a soft growling and though what was more confusing was the fact I could see not only in front of me but behind me as well. Zero and I both looked over our shoulders to see a white wolf with bright blue eyes looking at us. I noticed a butterfly wing slowly morph into its ear and I started at the wolf dumbfounded. "D-did I just do that?" I stuttered.
Well, Iris, you clearly can see what the wolf is seeing as well and Yuuki doesn't have a wolf familiar and Kaname's is a wolf and bats, I thought sarcastically.
Wait so I not only can I create a familiar after all, I can assume I have two considering the fact the wolf was apparently was formed by butterflies, and I took after both of my siblings familiars?!
Hell yeah!
"It looks like it." Zero chuckled. "I didn't even...how?!" I gasped. Zero shrugged and ruffled my hair gently. "Don't ask me, I'm not an expert on that subject. Hopefully you know how to make it disappear." He told me. I pointed at him and the wolf let out a sad whine. I walked over to it and knelt down in front of her. "But, Zero, who could wish this cutie to disappear?" I asked and scratched behind her ears.
Zero groaned and shook his head. "At least don't let it inside the council." He grumbled. "You can be a good girl, huh? Yes you can because you already are, huh? Who's a good girl~?." I asked as I used a baby voice. She barked happily and nuzzled her head under my chin: "Maybe when I'm done with the meeting I'll get you the prettiest collar I can find?" I suggested. "You're going to put a collar...on your familiar?!" Zero asked dumbfoundly. I looked over at him and grinned. "My familiar, my decision." I told him.
Maybe I can have her watch over Zero sometimes?
