Momo: Whoa damn, I'm being threatened, so I updated before I have an angry mob after me.
Takuma's POV
I knew Hikari would be angry with me for going into town to look for her, but I was worried about what would happen and what she would do. The smell of blood drifted in the air, I recognized it to be Hikari's. I quickly ran faster, trying to follow the scent of her blood so I could find her. The smell was stronger as I ran toward a corner, I could feel someones presence with her, which worried me even more. I turned around the corner and my jaw dropped. Hikari was unconscious with Kiryuu feeding off of her. I felt my fangs and claws extend, how could he do this to her!?
I ran up to Kiryuu and tackled him to the ground, making him release Hikari. "What do you think you're doing!? Trying to kill her!?" I yelled. He pushed me off of him, he clearly had no control over anything he was doing. He ran at me, attacking me. I dodged and jumped at him while he was in front of me, tackling him to the ground once again. I punched him to knock some sense into him. His head rebounded off of the pavement and his eyes went from red to lavender. "What the hell are you doing?" he asked coldly. I growled, completely angry with him. "I'm stopping you from killing Hikari." I snapped. His eyes widened. "I didn't try to kill her." he said. I got up, walked over to Hikari and picked her up. "Then explain this and the blood that's on your shirt." I growled. His jaw dropped as he came to the grim realization that he bit her without mercy. I didn't have time to yell at Zero, I quickly rushed Hikari to the school, hoping Kaname-sama and the headmaster would know what to do.
Hikari's POV
I slowly awoke, but did not have the strength to open my eyes, but I did hear voices in the room. "You what!?" a shrill voice yelled. Yuuki most likely. "I didn't..." a voice started, probably Zero. "But you did, now look what's happened." yet another voice said, it had to be Kaname. I finally opened my eyes and started to sit up when a severe bolt of pain rushed to my stomach. I yelped and fell back down on the bed I was laying one, immediately getting everyone's attention. "Hikari!" Yuuki exclaimed as she ran up to me. "Are you alright!?" I just stared at her for a couple seconds, wondering how I got here and how I was alive. "What the hell happened?" I asked. I heard the door slammed, Zero was no longer in the room. "Ichijou-senpai brought you in, he was really mad." Yuuki said. "Ichijou? How the hell did he do that? He wasn't there." I said, completely confused. "At least that's what you think." Kaname said. "Takuma, I believe you have explaining to do." he added. Ichijou stepped out, that smile that was normally there was gone. "We'll leave you alone." Kaname said as he ushered Yuuki out of the room.
It was only the two of us, Ichijou and I. I tried to sit up again. "Lie back down, you're really hurt." he said. "How did you save me?" I asked. Ichijou sighed. "I was worried when you didn't return, so I went looking for you. When I found you, Kiryuu was feeding off of you and I got angry and got him off of you. When he regained control, I told him what happened and brought you back. "How is he?" I asked. "Very upset with himself." Ichijou answered. Figures, I knew Zero would be mad at himself. I understand that he couldn't help it though, I know he couldn't control it. What vampire would be able to control it when they were hungry and had a running blood buffet? There was a long, uncomfortable silence for about ten minutes before I decided to break it. "Why were you so worried about me to look for me?" I asked. He looked at me seriously. "I didn't want you getting hurt, I was hoping you were alright." he said. He was worried for my well-being? "Thank you for your concern, but you didn't need to worry about." I said as I sat up and used the bed to support myself as I pushed myself up. "Besides, you have more important things to worry about." I let go of the bed and tried to stand. As soon as I did, my legs gave out and I fell to the floor. I yelped in pain as I landed, I could feel on of the gashes on my stomach reopen.
I felt Ichijou scoop me up and hold me in his arms. He sat down on the bed and let me rest on is lap and in his arms. "Oh no, your wound!" he exclaimed. He looked over at the bandages. "I'll have to do this, you know." he said with a light blush on his face. I realized what he was talking about, he'd have to take off my shirt and apply new bandages and ointment before I bled out. "I understand." I said, my face turning bright red. He helped me take off the shirt I was wearing and he immediately pulled of the now bloodied bandages and tossed them in the trash. I was glad he was only focusing on the wound and not gaping at me, very gentleman of him. "This will hurt." he said. I looked at him with a dull look on my face. "Do you honestly think I haven't felt worse?" I asked. He nodded and applied the burning medicine onto my open wound. "AHHHH!!!" I yelled. It hurt like hell. He hugged me tightly, trying to get my mind off of the pain. Once the pain subsided, I relaxed. He lifted my back up and put the clean bandages on my stomach. "Thank you." I mumbled as he helped me get my shirt back on.
"You said I had more important things to worry about?" he asked. "Well you do, I'm just a human that happens to be a good friend. You needed to worry about the school and everyone in it." I explained. He looked at me with a sad look in his eyes. "No. You're wrong. I didn't have anything more important to worry about than you." he said. "Why do you say that?" I asked. He smiled and leaned his face very close to mine. "Because you're the most important person to me." he said as he kissed me tenderly.
Momo: I know this is evil and I'm getting my ass kicked for this, but CLIFF HANGER!!!! I couldn't help it. I'll have this out very soon. Later! ^^
