Heya pets!
So here is the next chapter for you. I have decided this will be a multichapter piece in the end. There is just too much fun to be have with this.
Heres the story and look for comments and such below when your done!
"How is it possible", the voice was above him. It took a moment to realize he was laying down on something, a couch in the chairman's house by the feel of it. How did he get there? Last thing Zero remembered was chasing the cat and getting a hold of her.
"That is what I am trying to figure out", the smooth, elegant drawl was a voice Zero would know anyday, Kaname Kuran was to his right. "I don't know! The book didn't explain what the spell was supposed to do.", this miserable, whining voice was Aidou to his left. "He looks so cute", Zero wanted to smack Yuuki, near his feet from the sound of it. Though, he was too busy trying to understand why they were all around him in the first place. Not to mention he was trying to understand what the dull ache near his hip was, did he get hurt? "He's waking up", Yuuki's voice raised in pitch making him flattened his ears and shift in protest.
"Zero-Kun", Kaien asked nervously as the silverette shifted again and his eyes slowly opened to all four of them leaning a little closer. Kaname's brow cocked briefly, something Zero caught. Yuuki gasped softly. "Your eyes", she whispered drawing Zero's gaze. Confusion knitted his brow. "What's going on", he grumbled out as he pushed up onto his elbows, making everyone move back to give him space. "Z-zero, what do you remember?", the headmaster inquired. "I caught the cat and then nothing... Where is the cat?" he asked as he looked around. A nervous sound from the chairman and Zero instantly looked to him. "Here", it was Akatsuki offering a hand mirror to him. Zero frowned at him, suddenly aware of how intently everyone was looking at him. Was something wrong with his face?
Hesitantly Zero took the mirror and turned it around while looking at everyone else. "What's going on", he demanded and looked down at the mirror. Instantly he tensed. Cat ears on his head twitched almost on their own, familiar silver piercings glinted on the white and light gray appendages. His eyes looked back at him wide and with slit pupils, the lavender in his eyes was a stronger shade now, with that intense hue that cat eyes usually had. Slowly Zero raised a hand and touched the ear with the silver cuff along its left side. A tingle shot down his spine and the ear flinched. The mirror slipped from numb fingers and was saved from shattering by Kaname. "Zero", Yuuki looked worried as she leaned closer. "W-what happened", his voice sounded hoarse to his own ears, er, his cat ears.
"You stumbled across a spell I was testing in the forest.", the meek reply came from Aidou who sounded and looked downtrodden. Zero shot him a glare and he felt a tap on his leg and looked down startled. "No", the word barely fell from his lips. The hunter jumped to his feet and twisted at the tail, he turned a sickly pale color suddenly. Everyone seemed to watch him wearily. "Zero", Yuuki once again prompted. It seemed to shake him from his thoughts. "You", the word hissed darkly from his teeth. It seemed to startle those present, other than Kaname.
Zero rounded on the blond vampire present. "You", and Aidou flinched at the dark look he got. "I-it's not like I ..", Hanabusa was cut short with a yelp as Zero launched over the couch and they fell back. Sharp nails bit into Aidou's neck as a hand closed around his throat. Zero's tail lashed violently back and forth, a dark growling hiss rumbled through the ex-human and his ears were flat against his hair. Hanabusa struggled for air and release under the fury of the neko on him. "Zero!", Yuuki, and Kaien yelled at him. It was Kaname who pried him from the noble vampire. A hand on his neck and Zero froze releasing his hold, much like a kitten would in its mothers hold. Kain went to his cousin as Kaname pushed Zero back onto the couch, his aura dark once more. Kaien and Yuuki looked rather surprised. "It would seem the cat is a strong presence in him", Kaname pointed out to the chairman who nodded numbly.
There was a silence that settled over them before the question that had yet to be voice came from the pureblood. "So what is our next move with these circumstances", Kaname asked looking at the headmaster, because really in the end Zero would only listen to reason when it came from the ex-hunter. Kaien looked thoughtful. "Well he obviously can't go to classes or do his prefect duties in this shape...",the man said working out the best solution. "I need him close for tests to reverse the spell", Aidou butted in, clearly in a reluctant manor. Everyone knew full well that neither vampire wanted to be around the other, not after Zero's aggressive reaction to the blond vampire. The glare that was shot his way only emphasized that feeling. "If we have him stay in the Moon Dorms until a reversal can be done then he can have some freedom without being seen", Kaname suggested and all eyes were on him, one brilliantly colored pair narrowed to the smallest of gleaming slits. "Yes, and we can have Yuuki-chan get notes and the work for him everyday until he can return to his classes. I'm sure I can talk Yagari into coming to help with patrols in his absence too", Kaien latched onto the idea happily.
"No", the cold response sent eyes onto the neko sitting on the couch glaring defiantly at the ex-hunter and pureblood. "Zero-kun it's the only way, besides I'm going to be giving Aidou-san a pass to leave his classes while he works on a reversal for this spell", Kaien tried to talk the silverette into agreeing. The two stared at each other for a long moment before Zero huffed and looked away, his tail thumped lightly on the couch in irritation. "Fine", he grumbled. "Then it's settled, I'll see to all the changes", Kaien declared warmly.
It seemed almost too easy to pack things from his dorm and to move into a empty room in the moon dorm. He was situated too close to Kuran's room for his tastes but there was little choice in the matter. Kuran said it was to ensure no trouble would fall over the dorms from him or the other vampires in the dorm. Apparently the pureblood had spoken to his following of bloodsuckers about the situation because none of them seemed surprised by his appearance. Zero was acutely aware of his ears and tail, pinning them back and trying hard to keep his tail down. It was hard to keep control of the tail though, it seemed to have a mind of its own. Something that irritated Zero to no end.
Speaking of things that irritated Zero, this room was simply ridiculous in how fancy it seemed. There was even crown molding! The hell kind of room has crown molding? The neko shook his head with a light scoff as he dropped his duffle on the over sized canopy bed and made for the heavy curtains that hide the window. Gripping them he pulled them open to get a view of the garden in the back yard. It looked fairly simple and peaceful unlike that night he and Yuuki came for Ichijou's birthday. His tail lashed behind him and an inner sort of growl rumbled in his chest, startling him. Wide lavender eyes shifted down at himself and then to his tail, with twitched at the tip. This was going to take some getting used to. However, hoped he wasn't stuck like this long enough to get used to it though.
Zero turned away from the window to go into the bathroom connected to the room. He flicked the light on and faced the large mirror over the long marble counter. Slowly Zero moved until his hip bumped the counter and he stopped. A twitch of his ears brought Zero's gaze to his head. Curiously he reached up and touched the furry appendage. He started when a tingle rippled down his spine in response. Wide eyed Zero stared at himself before something caught his attention. His brows meet as he leaned forward to look at his eyes. They held far more purple in them than they had before. And his pupil changed. Touching the skin just under his eye lid Zero leaned back once more with a sigh. A brush along his leg and Zero glance behind him a the tail and brushed his fingers along the silky new appendage. Shaking his head Zero turned away from the mirror. He couldn't deal with this just yet.
The neko turned the light off and moved to close the curtains and shed his shoes as he made his way to the bed. Once Zero was down to his pants and a shirt he dropped on the bed pulling a pillow over to hug with a heavy sigh. The silverette never managed to reach for the blanket before he felt the irresistible pull of sleep make his limbs too heavy to move. A yawn and Zero curled up and promptly fell asleep, more drained and tired than he had been aware of himself.
