Chapter 3

"We already decided with whom you will stay" Konoemon said looking at Leona.

"Hum… It is necessary to share room... I mean, it's not that I don't like the idea, it's just I would want to be alone…" Leona said.

"Sorry, but we have always done it this way, for now you have to share a room, don't worry you will be fine" Konoemon said smiling.

"It seems I have no choice... Okay" Leona said, sighing "Who am I going to stay with?" Leona said, raising her left eyebrow curiously.

"You are going to stay with two classmates, Haruna and Ku Fei" Konoemon replied stroking his beard "Takamichi will accompany you" Konoemon said looking at Takamichi.

"Come on, Leona" Takamichi said looking at Leona, she nodded and followed him, then, they left the principal's office.

/Grace of Destiny/

"How was the class today? Are you comfortable in the class?" Takamichi asked looking at her as they walked.

"Yes, I am fine"

"I'm glad the first days are usually difficult, is here" Takamichi said, pointing with his index finger toward the dormitory. "This is where the students stay, apart from dormitories. It has a fairly large bathroom. And here are your keys of the dormitory." Takamichi said, took the keys out of his pocket and gave them to Leona.

"Thanks" Leona said catching it with her hand.

"I'm going to accompany you, so you know which room you're in." Takamichi said as they walked into the building, they went up the stairs and went down a hallway, then stopped at one of the doors "It's here" Takamichi said as they were inside, then, two students greeted them.

"Oh, it's Takamichi" Haruna said looking at them "Hello!"

"Hello!" Ku Fei said looking at them.

"Hello, I come with Leona. I guess you have already been informed that she is going to stay with you" Takamichi said, raising his hand toward Leona.

"Yes!"

"Well, Leona if you have any doubt-"

"You can ask to us!" Haruna said smiling and raising the thumb.

"Well, I have to go to see the director now" Takamichi said goodbye raising his hand.

"Goodbye!" Haruna said, watching as he walked out the door and closed it behind him. "Well! I'm going to show you as your new home is! This is the living room with the television, the table, the desk… As you can see there are three beds in this room, one is a bunk bed; the other is a bed against the corner of the room. You sleep in the bed, Ku Fei and I sleep in the bunk bed; the kitchen is small, because it is attached to the living room; the bathroom is on that door there." Haruna said, pointing with her index finger towards a door.

"It seems that you are selling this..." Ku Fei said, stroking her head from behind.

"You can take a bath here or in the other bathroom that is outside. We usually go there, because it is very spacious and it has a Jacuzzi, the bathroom from here. It has a bathtub that is not so large… Any questions?" Haruna said looking at Leona.

"No" Leona said looking at her.

"Well, by the way, I draw Mangas and Ku Fei is an expert in martial arts"

"Yes! Although I still have a long way to go!" Ku Fei said with her arms crossed over her chest and smiling.

"I will show you the manga I'm making, when I finished" Haruna said smiling.

"It's okay"

"By the way, have you dined?" Haruna asked.

"Hum… No" Leona said.

"Then don't worry, we went a little bit too far with the food. So, now I bring you a dish! By the way, very funny what happened with Nitta, I had to keep from laughing."

"Eh? Hum ... "Leona said.

"Don't worry, in the course of time, I think you will get along with him!" Haruna said, smiling while her hand was giving pats on Leona's back.

"Do you think?" Ku Fei said.

Haruna went to the kitchen to bring the plate of food for her, after a while, they went to sleep. The next morning, the sun pierced through the bedroom window curtains, everyone was asleep, until the alarm went off.

"With how well I was sleeping..." Ku Fei said, still with her eyes closed, she turned in her bed, while the alarm kept ringing, it rang louder and louder, then Ku Fei took the alarm and threw it down with force on the floor, then Haruna and Leona woke up, abruptly.

"What the hell is going on?!" Haruna shouted.

"Forgive Paru, it was inadvertently." Ku Fei said, stroking her head from behind with her hand.

"Ku Fei, from now on, I will put the alarm clock beside me, to avoid shocks, and buy new alarm clocks" Haruna said looking at the alarm clock that was broken on the floor.

"Leona, are you okay?" Haruna asked looking at her "You seem a little nervous."

"No, it's just the alarm clock. I didn't expect that blow on the floor." Leona said shifting her gaze in another direction.

"Did you also get scared, eh?" Haruna said.

"Sorry" Ku Fei said, stroking her head, from behind with her hand.

"Well, come on to class." Haruna said.

"I can't wait for the holidays…" Ku Fei said looking at the ceiling.

"Just like everyone else" Haruna said looking at her.

/Grace of Destiny/

"Hello, everyone!" Haruna shouted, walking through the classroom door, Leona and Ku Fei entered with her.

"Hello" Kazumi said, waving from her table.

"Hey!" Yuna shouted as she approached Leona.

"Hello" Leona said looking at her.

"How you prefer to be called, Lio or Leona? By the way, I am Yuna, nice to meet you!

"As you like, I don't care, it doesn't bother me" Leona said.

"Leona" Ayaka said, Leona looked at her, Ayaka had risen from her seat and was now standing in front of her.

"Yesterday, I didn't introduce myself to you correctly, I am the delegate of the class, if you have questions you can ask me" Ayaka said smiling.

"Okay"

"By the way, the girl who is sitting there and has two pigtails" Ayaka said, whispering in Leona's ear "I warn you that she has a bad temper and-"

Suddenly, a chalk hit Ayaka's head.

"Ah!" Ayaka shouted.

"What are you saying, Iinchou?" Asuna said from the whiteboard and looking at her.

"I was saying how rude you are, Asuna!" Ayaka said with an expression of anger.

"How?! Leona, this person here is a cradle robber!" Asuna shouted, pointing with the index finger toward Ayaka.

"What?" Leona said with a confused look on her face.

"How dare you!" Ayaka shouted walking towards Asuna, then they began to argue, while classmates approached them.

"Don't worry. It is normal for them to have an argument." Yuna said, smiling to Leona.

"Does anyone know where Ako is?" Makie asked.

"Ah? If I remember correctly, she is in the infirmary. She was found unconscious on Sakura Lane, amongst the row of sakura trees" Madoka replied.

"That sounds familiar to me..." Kazumi said with a hand on her chin.

"It must be because it is the same thing that happened long ago" Misa said looking at the class.

"Ah, it's true!" Makie shouted, "The same thing happened to me!"

"The rumors say that it has returned" Misa said, raising her index finger.

"Who has returned?" Leona asked with a tone of curiosity in her voice, raising her left eyebrow, Haruna adjusted her glasses, and pointed with her index finger toward Leona.

"It refers to the same thing again! It is 'The Vampire's return, second part... Will it have a third part?!" Haruna shouted. Leona narrowed her eyes.

"You say it as if it were a movie Haruna..." Yue said, looking at her askance.

"And why did the vampire attack Ako?" Fuka asked.

"She will have the sweet blood" Kazumi said, shrugging her shoulders.

"Vampire..." Leona whispered.

"It is like a few months ago, the vampire has returned to migrate here and attack the young students." Chizuru said, with a voice to scare them.

"Eh?!" Fuka and Fumika screeched, as they began to cry.

"Can you tell me, because you add 'migrate'? What does that have to do with anything?! Since when they migrate? As if it was birds!" Chisame shouted looking at her.

"Is the vampire looking for a partner to mate?" Fumika asked.

"NO!" Chisame shouted as she put one hand on her face sighing.

"Come on, we aren't sure if it has been a vampire." Asuna said with a hand on her waist.

"And what about Ako?" Yuna said looking at her.

"She fainted on the road." Asuna replied.

"What a topic to talk about" Ayaka said with a sigh.

"Where is the Sakura Lane?" Leona asked to class.

"It is going through the dormitories" Kazumi replied.

"And why does the vampire only attack on the Sakura Lane?" Fumika asked.

"Because there are Sakuras" Fuka replied.

"..."

"Done!" Konoka said looking at the board with a chalk in her hand, she drew some kind of rare animal, besides of it, on the board was written: 'It uses this to suck blood', 'Body length 1-9M' and 'Chupacabra'.

"That drawing again…" Asuna said, eyes narrowing, looking at the board.

"What is that thing?" Leona asked.

"It is a Chupacabra!" Haruna said.

"Eh?" Leona said looking at the drawing.

"It is the prime suspect in these attacks" Misa said with a hand on her chin and a serious expression on her face.

"You are confusing things…" Yue said.

"Do we really need to talk about this again? Besides, there's no way something like that could exist!" Ayaka said as she pointed at the board with her index finger.

"I agree" Chisame said with arms crossed.

"Ok, that is enough, you are always with the same thing" Ayaka said.

"Even though you say that, aren't you afraid too, Iinchou?" Makie said looking at her.

"Of course not! Because there is no way such a thing exist! "Ayaka shouted.

"You can't know that for sure" Leona said with a serious look.

"Leona... Are you also with that Chupacabra?" Ayaka said raising her left eyebrow.

"Eh? No, I'm talking about the vampire"

"Once the vampire bit me at the base of my neck" Makie said, raising her hand.

"It is more than likely that you fell asleep and dreamed with it" Ayaka said with a sigh.

"No! I was attacked,, while I was going to the dormitories" Makie said.

"Of course, while you were coming to the dormitories"

"Yes!"

"Makie, if so, you would have noticed any change, like in the movies or books" Ayaka said with a sigh.

"No, the vampire only drank from me"

"I heard that vampires really like to drink virgin's blood!" Haruna said raising her index finger.

"..."

"Why?" Makie asked, turning around looking at Chisame.

"How should I know?!" Chisame replied.

"Well, it is best to ask Ako, later." Misa said.

"She was in the infirmary, wasn't she?" Leona asked the class.

"Yes" Asuna replied "But why-"

Leona went to the infirmary.

"She's gone" Asuna said, then the door opened again and Negi showed up in the class.

"Good morning!" Negi said smiling as he went to his desk.

"Good morning, teacher Negi!" The class shouted.

"As you know, today is the school health checkup, please prepare to take off your clothes" Negi said looking at the class.

"Ahem!" Chisame said looking at Negi seriously.

"Ah..."

"Negi is a pervert!" Makie said smiling.

"What- NO! You don't misunderstand me! "Negi shouted, as he moved his arms up and down faster, and then left the class running.

"This aniki..." Chamo said.

"The same to you" Asuna said, taking him from teacher's desk.

"Hey!" Chamo complained.

"Come on!" Asuna said as she threw Chamo outside the class.

"Tch, I almost got it ..." Chamo said looking at the closed door.

/Grace of Destiny/

"Ah... Ah... Finally I found it..." Leona said tired, she opened the door and closed it behind her.

"Are you okay? You look a little tired" Shizuna said looking at her, she was sitting in the chair next to a table where there were sheets of paper.

"It is nothing"

"Are you feeling sick? I'm the nurse"

"No, I'm fine, I came to see Ako, they told me she was here..."

"Yes, she is now resting, don't worry" Shizuna said looking at Ako lying in bed "Apparently she was found unconscious on Sakura Lane amongst the row of sakura trees, although the girls in this school, they didn't think it was just that, though..." Shizuna said, opened a desk drawer and picked up a magazine.

"Eh?"

"Have a look" Shizuna said smiling.

"Ok" Leona said and looked at the magazine, it had a picture of Ako with an expression of shock showing on her face, above the picture, the title was written in black ''The Vampire's return' next to the picture 'The victim was on Sakura Lane, it is mentioned that is the same vampire who attacked Mahora long ago...' and small under the article was the picture of the teacher Nitta saying 'Let's see whether you stop saying about all those things that don't exist and once and for all, you start to study'.

"This Asakura" Shizuna said smiling "I don't think it was a vampire, this place tends to have strange things, but it must have some logic explanation, don't worry about it"

"Ah…"

"I have to go to Principal's Office for a moment, if you have any problems or you are feeling sick, you can come anytime you want"

"Okay..." Leona said, watching as she left the infirmary room door, then left the magazine on the table and she approached Ako.

"She doesn't seem to have any bite marks on her neck, I don't notice anything strange either, if it had been a vampire at least should have the bite, unless the mark had disappeared... She must have only fainted, because I don't' want to imagine that thing on the board..." Leona whispered.

"You seem to have some interest in this topic about the vampire, girl" Evangeline said, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, next to her was Chachamaru.

"You..." Leona said looking at her.

"Would you like to meet it?" Evangeline said.

"What?"

"You know what I mean"

"Maybe"

"Hmph, if I were you, would watch your back because you could be the next, let's go Chachamaru"

"Yes mistress" Chachamaru said, bowed and left the infirmary's room with Evangeline.

"Why did she say those things?" Leona said, then the school bell rang.

"Ah! I have to go to class! "Leona said, she left the infirmary and went down the hall, while Evangeline was watching as she was leaving.

"Excuse me mistress, why you are interested in her?" Chachamaru asked looking at her.

"I feel magical energy from her, so I think I will have some entertainment" Evangeline replied smiling, her fangs showing.

/Grace of Destiny/

"In the end I came... What a silence" Leona said as she walked by Sakura Lane, she was dressed in normal clothing. It was night, the street lamps were the only light that had, and only the wind could be heard blowing some of the cherry blossom petals of the trees, while the full moon lit up the night sky. "Full moon..." Leona said, looking at the moon, "I never get tired of seeing it" Leona said, then she saw a vending machine.

"I'm going to take a soft drink" Leona said walking towards it, pulled from her pocket a coin and she put it in the vending machine. Then she chose a soft drink, but the vending machine didn't give her back the soft drink.

"... No way..." Leona said with a shadow covering her eyes, started hit the button several times, but the vending machine didn't give her the soft drink. "Dammit!" Leona shouted, sighed and began to walk again, suddenly she noticed that something passed by her side, she turned but saw no one there. "What was that just now?" Leona said, and started to walk again, then the wind began to blow harder and she saw somebody standing on one of street lamps. The person was wearing a black witch's hat and a black cape swaying back and forth as it fluttered into the wind. "What-?"

"Girl!" The person said.

"But what… Who are you?" Leona asked, as she stood in defensive position.

"Who I am? I thought you wanted to meet me, girl"

"Eh? This person knows me? Maybe is... But it can't be, it must be the vampire of the rumor… Or so I think… I'm confused!" Leona thought.

"Then, should I take your blood?" The vampire smiled slightly, with her fangs showing.
