Chapter 7:
"I really hope we don't become enemies." Aurora gave a polite bow as Hanabusa handed his empty plate over to Jeffy. He then walked over to Aurora who stood by the door waiting for him. They walked side by side as they exited the hunter's association. By the time they got to the car outside Jeffy was there and holding the door open for them to get in.
Once the car doors closed Aidou slumped against the seat as all the stress and tension he had flowed out of him. Aurora seeing this suggested to Hana that he should take a nap while they drove to his new home. Hana began to close his eyes and relax.
"Remember Hana, where ever I am is the only home you'll ever need." Hana fully succumbed to sleep once he heard those words pass her lips. The ride back to Aurora's personal home was just long enough to give Hanabusa the extra boost he would need to answer the questions coming up.
Aurora shook Hana awake as they approached the castle. Aidou was used to large homes since he was considered a best friends with a pure blood but her place was huge. From what he could tell the actual Kuran Mansion was based off of hers, which was much larger than the Kuran's. It was a mansion built in an actual mountain. Hana could see the front of the mansion which seemed as though it was pulled out of the mountain before it joined back into it. From how large it appeared with only the entrance showing Aidou couldn't even guess how larger it actually was.
Although he was glad to finally be out of that cage he couldn't help but think that he just wasn't good enough for the woman in front of him. He didn't want to fuck up and be send away. For damn sure Hana just didn't want to have to go back around the Kurans. Aidou slowly got out of the car after Aurora and followed her up the front steps. She waited at the top and fling both doors open wide before welcoming him to what was to be the best home he would ever live.
"Hey Ro!" Aurora shouted as she waved to Kiryu who was passing by with a book in hand. He looked up from his book.
"Hey Aurora, Aidou." He quickly turned his glance back to his book before walking a few steps. Abruptly Zero dropped the book and ran over to Aidou asking things like are you okay? Nothing back happened to you right? Hanabusa smile in response before he started to cry. Kiryu was shocked for a moment before he gathered Aidou in his arms for a hug. He knew exactly how Aidou felt.
"So what do you to do for the rest of the day?" Aurora asked before smacking her fist against her palm, "Maybe we should imprint the nine books of Law into you two. It will probably take say all of this week and most of next so by the time we go to the council we'll see a major improvement in both your ways of thinking."
Zero looked questionably at Aurora, "What do you mean by ways of thinking?" He asked still giving comfort to Aidou who obviously needed it. "I've read a bit and it's drug like with it's affects." Zero said with a slight blush.
"Ah, the reason there's so much hate today is because of the way you think. Well the Law will show reasons to get rid of such unnecessary emotions." She said with a smile. "Also I'll have you know that emotions are one of the main causes for someone's blood lust to act up."
"Ah, plus just to let you know, most of the things you've been taught as children is wrong." She stated as an after thought. "And I'm not just talking about the vampire side of things Ro. You would do well to learn how hunters truly came about and how your able to use abilities that you have."
They followed her into her library, which Hana found to be truly stunning. After all his years, he had found what appeared to be his perfect place. Aidou hadn't become a bookworm for nothing, he enjoy reading and that was the only reason for his knowledge. Then again reading had let him escape from being with his so called friends.
Aurora walked over to what seemed to look like an older section of her library. Sitting on the top of a pedestal were the books. Zero recognized them, they were similar to the ones he found except extremely more intricate. The books were square and about the size and an out stretched hand. Four were stacked together to form a bigger square and then there was another layer of that plus one odd one on the top.
"Oh, here watch," Aurora said as she pulled the binding of each book out to the right. The odd book fell into the middle which made it look like half a flower till she put the combined books on the table before she pulled on the bindings on the lower row to the left. Once that was done the books began to glow and sparkle. The odd book in the middle then floated slightly above the center of the book flower.
"That's beautifully crafted but how do you use it?" Hanabusa asked circling the pedestal in awe.
"It imprints to memory so you know at all times what is and what isn't against the law. It's like how pure bloods can block or slightly change memories of those lower than them. Apparently back then changing memories of humans so they could live in peace with them was something they all knew." Zero stated as he watched Aurora speak on her phone to Jeffy.
"Can we?" Hanabusa asked with wide eyes and slightly flushed face. Aurora stopped speaking on the phone and smiled sweetly to Hanabusa who looked as though he was given the key to a candy store.
"So how do you use it then?" Hanabusa asked bouncing on the balls of his feet.
"I get most of it but the last part since that part was left in the first vampire language, which no one really knows," Zero said, upset by the fact that he had to guess when he did it. Although he knew the language now, Zero didn't want to think about what would have happened if he didn't guess correctly.
"I know it. My grandfather taught it to me as a child. It's what he was known for. Although my father didn't learn it. I did. I haven't used it in a while so," Hanabusa said quietly. Aurora glanced at Hanabusa with one eyebrow quirked.
"I truly thought that no one knew the language anymore." She stated as she waited for Jeffy. "Well since you both know it, this will go smoother. Also I'm getting Jeffy to go get my quick learn robes."
"Quick learn robes?" Zero questioned.
"Yes they robes I made to help stimulate the body's ability to learn." She said as Jeffy appeared next to her with two dark green robes with bronze trims. "Okay put these on and then we'll begin."
Zero and Hana were quick to adorne the robes. Although the clothes didn't really match them they could feel the magic in them. The spell that Aurora must have use were great for they could feel their minds working overtime.
"Mistress, the arrangements have been made." Jeffy said with a bow before disappearing from sight.
"Arrangements?" Hanabusa questioned.
"Yes, I made Jeffy prepare rooms for the two of you in my personal wing. Plus thanks to Jeffy awesome skills I've set up and meeting between both councils two weeks from now." Aurora said plainly, "So by the time we get you two completely settled and you finish learning the law, we'll go to the meeting."
The two boys stood there in shock. How quickly she moved. They didn't understand why she wanted this to happen so soon.
"I want this because those idiots need to know who they're messing with. Also, I need to claim you two off limits to all." Aurora said as though she read their minds. "Plus you two need time to adjust to how I go about doing things."
Both Aidou and Kiryu stared at the woman before them with wide eyes. She showed signs of a sweet nature that both of them had never witnessed before in a vampire. They didn't even want to think about what she could do when angered for if she was so sweet on the outside the inside must be equally as sour.
