A Sacrifice…or so it May Seem

"Ugh. I hope that whoever this is calling me has an emergency," Yuuki mumbled as she practically glided through the roomy hallways. She was grateful for the dim lighting; her head already ached enough as it was.
"It seems like they're out here…" she said thoughtfully as she gracefully pushed the weighty entrance doors open. She flew right into someone…felt familiar…Mm…whoever it was, she didn't feel like moving. It was so windy outside, and the person was so warm…
"Kaname-sempai?" she asked incredulously as she blinked up at him. "What are you doing here? I thought you left…?"
Geez, I wished I'd fixed my hair…She ran her hand through it self-consciously, tucking some of it behind her ear. With the excitement of Ichiru's surprise visit
"Why would I leave you here to walk back to the dorm all by yourself, Yuuki?" he asked her, rubbing her cheek with the back of his hand softly. 'Are you ready to go back? It's going to get light soon, and you need your rest," he told her tenderly. "Plus, it's getting chilly," he remarked, noticing her rubbing her arms. He held her tighter, sharing his body heat. He felt her content sigh through his clothes and flinched. Why was she so shapely? He could feel her every curve; she was so close to him that her curves practically molded to his own body. He winced. He would have to try to control his…feelings for the moment. It wouldn't do them any good if he pounced on her, nonetheless outside.
"Kaname…sama…" Yuuki whispered, grasping his hand. If only she could go back now…but she had to-, Zero-,
"Zero! Onii-sama, I have to take care of Zero!" she exclaimed, remembering. She turned and made a move to go back into the building, but Kaname had a strong grip on her slender wrist.
She didn't notice the slight glow to his eyes, or the sudden picking up of the wind.
"Yuuki," he started, his dark red eyes mixed with a multitude of emotions at the moment. "I sent someone to watch over Kiryuu. Why don't you come back with me?" he asked.
"But…" she looked back at the looming building unsurely.
"He'll be fine," Kaname assured her. "I'll call Elle and have her check on him for you if you want to be completely sure. How about that?" he asked.
"Well…"
His hold on her wrist got tighter. He wasn't going to be able to-
Before he could stop himself, he pierced her wrist with his fangs. Yuuki gasped softly, biting her lip to keep the moan that she knew was coming to herself.
"Onii-sama," she sighed, her words a struggle to get out, "what if someone from the Day Class sees you?" she asked. It was a dumb, random question, she knew, but it was the only thing she could get out clearly at the moment.
"Then let's go back to the dorm," he replied, licking the mess of blood from his lips and her wrist. Kaname let her lead the way back to the Moon Dorm as she pulled him along.

I don't get it. Elle thought to herself. She sat in one of the huge trees that sat behind the building. She'd seen the whole scene between Yuuki and Kaname. First It's Yuuki, then Kiryuu, now Yuuki. Either he's really that serious about Yuuki, or he's…one extremely horny dude.
But then, he's not the kind of person…well…I mean, sure, he can be a serious pain in my ass at times, but that's just plan ridiculous. Isn't it?
She bit her thumbnail, contemplating the possible answers.
"What's your next move, Kuran?" she asked, even though she knew he was beyond paying attention to her far-spoke question as she watched the two dash towards the Moon Dorm. Her hair blew in her face with the whipping wind, frustrating because she had to keep moving it out of the way of her vision.
Her thumb had started bleeding thanks to her stupid hair. And Kuran. She'd get him for that, she resolved as she sucked her thumb clean of blood.
Damn. And now, I'm thirsty. Stupid Kuran.
"Oh, shit. There's Kaien. He must be looking for me…" she leapt from the tree, landing agilely on the ground, and sped off in the opposite direction of the searching Headmaster.

"What do you want, vampire?" Zero asked rudely.
Well, he has a lot of right to talk, doesn't he?
"I come in peace," Ichijou said, sliding slowly from his spot behind the now closed door, his hands raised as a gesture of peace. "Kaname just wanted me to keep watch over you while he…erm, took care of some things." He looked away for a second.
"Leave. Now," Zero ordered, pulling his gun from his pocket.
"Now then, Kiryuu, is that really-,"
Ichijou was cut off by the sound of the gun cocking.
Oh, boy. Why do I always get the difficult ones? Ichijou asked himself with a roll of his eyes. The days I need Shiki, I always forget to drag him along. He sighed.
"Now look, Kiryuu," he said, pulling his sword out from nowhere and pointing the sharp end of the blade right at Zero's chest. His injury was nearly healed, but with a hit to it from the sword, Zero would be done for. "I only came to keep watch. I think that we'll get along just fine if I stay to myself and you to yours, don't you?" he asked with a smile.
Without another word, he went and sat down in a chair as far away as possible from Zero's bed as possible. Resolved not to fall asleep since the other vampire was in the room now, even though he was on the brink of exhaustion, he crossed his arms and struggled to sit up to help himself stay awake. It did no good; the pain still remained, just a bit duller. It would take a little while for Yuuki's blood to really kick in.
Damn you, Kuran. What do you have planned?

Author's Note: Sorry, I know it's short, but, hey, better than nothing, right? Plus, it's better than me going on about nothing and it just being drab. Ugh(s). Um…it'll probably…nah, I was going to say end soon, but the thing is, I have to tie this one in with the other two. (and the last one should have been the first, so the second one is going to be kind of short for a while, too) Argh! Curse me and my inability to form a structured storyline until the third freaking story! I'm sorry! –Bows once more, only deeper, this time-
