Opening theme: Ai Nante by NewS
(Akari POV)
"Mou, hurry Zero! Chairman Cross said that he had something important to tell us...Ahhh, where's Aka-chan?? He wanted to see her as well...Do you know which part of the school is she patrolling? Just when we need her, she disappears..." Yuuki pouted.
Zero trudged slowly behind her sighing in defeat, they were seeing that idiot father of hers again...
I could hear her coming closer and closer, my last moments of freedom would soon be shattered by her screaming of my name.
"AH!!! Aka-chan!!"
I turned around, my black hair swaying with the wind, seeing Yuuki in this aggravated state was not a good sign. It sent shivers up my spine and I had to try very hard not to run away...Or I'll just get killed by her later...
"Yuuki-chan...what's the hurry?" I asked carefully, trying not to provoke any angry spots
"I've been searching for you EVERYWHERE! Were you even patrolling or just having fun?"
"...I was just looking at the moon...It just brings back some memories..." I pointed upwards towards the sky where the bright full moon sat, not daring to lie.
"Yes, yes, it's pretty, now lets go to the Chairman's Room, he has something important set for us."
"Do I have to?"
"Yes, you're a prefect too. Now lets go. Kaname-sama is going to be there as well, so I don't want to be late"
"Ahh...Yuuki-chan, shouldn't you just tell him how you feel about him already? And you call him sama here and senpai infront of him? tut tut."
"EHHH?!?!?!? MOU AKA-CHAN! YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT THESE STUFF IN PUBLIC!" Yuuki screamed, a dark red blush forming on her face
Seeing her face blush so hard was rare, I couldn't help but giggle "There's no one here besides me and Zero, you can hardly call this public..."
Unfortunately for Zero and me, Yuuki protested that we were in public the whole way with Zero covering his ears and glaring at me the whole time, reaching the Chairman's large wooden door, Yuuki took a deep breath, straightening her hair and skirt up to make herself look completely fabulous so that "Kaname-sama" would notice her more.
*Knock knock*
"YUUUUUKIIIIII!!!!" A scream of pleasure greeted them as Yuuki opened the door finding Kaname and her father already inside.
I sighed tiredly with Zero at the same time...Yuuki ran away from her father's embrace and ran to Kaname-senpai instead, bowing deeply and greeting him with utmost politeness...
"Ladies first" Zero pointed to the door, a special glint in his eye
I glared, knowing what he was planning to do.
"So that you can run away on this? I don't think so, we're in this together, and we're going to die together." I grabbed his hand and pulled him in. He sighed in defeat as I dragged him in.
I let go of his hand to bow down to my elders, "Kaname-senpai, Chairman Cross, Good Evening" Kaname-senpai always acting loyalty replied politely, Chairman Cross on the other hand...naturally fully embraced me and called me Yuki's younger sister...Thanks to Zero, he pulled us apart and he mouthed me 'You owe me one' and smirked, I glared and replied softly 'I don't owe you anything'
Remembering the first day I came through the giant wooden doors acting as cold as ever, seeing the same people in the room...
"Ah, Akari-san, would you mind telling us your past?" Yuuki asked, curious.
Kaname sat on his chair, frozen on the spot, legs crossed, hands placed neatly on his legs, the Chairman resting his head on his hands on his desk, Zero leaning against a wall next to the door, not really caring as usual, and Yuuki...She was standing in the middle of the room as if we were already friends.
I stared at her with cold eyes and replied "A young Pureblood vampire saved me from two Level E vampires and took me into this Aunt" I stared down at the floor, talking about the past was never easy for me, never knowing my parents, having no siblings at all. Raised up with this Aunt and her family, but then again, you could say that I've adapted with my other 'siblings'. "...I've never seen him ever since I was adopted..."
Thinking it would be best if I made a dramatic ending, I marched out of the door and down a random corridor that was closest to me. I glanced back at Yuuki who was staring at me from the middle of the room as if something about me reminded her of something. I looked away as I turned a corner. I froze when I realized I had reached a dead end and the stairs to the dorms where in the other direction. I decided to keep on walking so that I wouldn't look like a complete retard going back and passing the open door for them to laugh at me. I waited until I heard their door close. I sighed in relief as I started to head back towards the dorms, but as soon as I turned around I saw Yuuki right behind me with her eyes full of meaning. She briefly explained her past to me and that she wasn't shocked because of my reaction but because we were so similar together. She was the first friend that I had ever made (shortly followed by Zero of course). People tend to run away due to my coldness towards them...for I had never known what had happened to me before I was attacked by those Vampires who thirsted for my blood.
"Akari-san?" The chairman waved his hand in front of me, clearly his retarded sweet voice brought me back to reality again. I saw his gigantic face in front of mine that I screamed so loud and jumped back, tripping over my own feet and landing on my butt, earning painful bruises. Everyone laughed. Yes, EVERYONE. INCLUDING KANAME. Now when did HE learn to laugh?
"Mou," I complained, rubbing my butt at the same time "You didn't need to scare me like that."
"Hahaha, but then you were day dreaming again! I had no choice but to do that" Chairman cross laughed loudly, wiping the tears away that was coming from his eyes.
Okay, not EVERYONE was laughing, Zero wasn't... He sighed at those immature idiots and stuck out a hand. I carefully took it, not wanting to owe him anything or fall for another unseen prank. He said quietly, a bit amused, 'That's twice now' I glared at him even more. He just smirked. Honestly, he was nice in some ways but he is such a jerk most of the times.
"So, before such a comedy was performed, there is a new night student coming to Cross Academy" The chairman stated.
I looked up at him, he didn't seem to be kidding, Yuuki gasped, Kaname already pre-told so god knows what his reaction was and Zero was...being his usual own emo-self...
"His name is Hakushou Hikaru. I want either Yuuki, Zero or Akari to be his guide..." He asked us.
That name rang a bell...It sounded familiar but I just couldn't grasp where I've heard it before from...I saw the Chairman and Kaname-senpai shoot glances as me when I cocked my head wondering where I heard that name before.
"Gomen...but I've got detention with Zero because...we were sleeping in class again..." Yuuki apologized, "We've got it for a whole week so it's basically impossible to guide him to anywhere"
"That's fine" the chairman stated lightly as if he had been expecting this. He turned around to look at me with a way-over-the-top cheesy grin... "THEN AKA-CHAN WILL GUIDE HIKARU-KUN!"
"NANIIIIII?!?!?" I screamed at the top of my lungs.
The Chairman began faking tears as he tried to persuade me.
"Oh, Akari-san...*sob* You wouldn't want p-poor little Hikaru-kun wandering around the school with all the day students girls all around him do you? *sob*"
"No...but-"
"You don't want him to sit in a corner of his room and cry because he's all alone and lost do you?"
"NO...BUT-"
"You aren't that cold-hearted to not lead a poor little 15 year old boy around the school for his first week are you?"
"NO!!!! BUT THEN-"
"EXCELLENT!" he shouted as he waltzed out of the room "THEN I'LL CALL HIKARU-KUN IN!!!! JUST WAIT FOR ME RIGHTTT HERE! I think he's down in the lobby shivering in the cold..."
-SLAM-
I slammed the door in is face as hard as I could as he went out, I whipped around, and pointed at Yuuki and Zero.
"You...two...are...SO...SO...SO...DEAD!!!" I spat out the words through my teeth
For what ever reason, they bursted out laughing.
"IT'S NOT FUNNY!!!! STOP LAUGHING!" I yelled
Outside the door, I heard the Chairman's footstep growing louder accompanied by another pair of footsteps.
"Aka-chan," he asked through the wooden door, "Why were you screaming? Did Zero do something inappropriate to you? Why won't you let us in so we can talk this through? Hikaru-kun is getting frozen out here..."
"ZERO is not doing ANYTHING to me." I shouted as I opened the door roughly for them to come in "It just so happens that SOME STUPID ARROGANT DUMB CHAIRMAN decided to FORCE me into doing this RANDOM job when I NEED MY SLEEP so that I can GET FREAKING GOOD GRADES. But SOMEHOW me being Yuuki-chan's 'little SISTER' isn't helping 'PAPA' in ANY FREAKIN WAY." I shouted making quotation marks in the air while i gave death stares straight into the chairman's head as he went back sitting on his chair.
Somehow, the reaction was a lil' bit different from what I imagined... everything was quiet. I sprung around...the new kid was standing there staring at me as if he had seen me before, but not like I was some fool who just shouted at the top of my lungs complaining about some crap. He was wearing a black sleeveless shirt, pale white trousers and black shoes.
Something was seriously wrong with him. He was SUPPOSE to be GAPING at me as if I was CRAZY.
Making a fool of myself again...I laughed weirdly..."Oh hohohohoho...um, I'm Fukuoka Akari, you can call me Akari, nice to meet you..." as I slowly tiptoed back to where the chairman was sitting again and slammed my hands onto his table.
"You are going to regret choosing me to do this..." I warned him with my poisoned words... Swearing to take my revenge on him someday.
"Ano...Hajimemashte, I'm Hakushou Hikaru." he replied my crappy introduction with his perfect introduction.
I'm not joking, his voice sounded really familiar. "...d-domo..." I replied, embarrassed, feeling my checks getting a bit hot.
The chairman stood up as if he didn't hear my threat. "Well Hikaru-kun, since Akari-san is your guide here, she will lead you to your dorms tonight with Kaname-kun here. I think you two know each other already since you're both pure bloods and quite related together in a way too."
"I'm not doing it." I replied bluntly, crossing my arms, angry that he ignored my threat
The Chairman gasped at me, he fell onto his knees, preparing for another 'tearful explanation'
"Aka-chan...I...I didn't expect this...This is all too sudden...Oh...Oh!! *sob sob*, I'm begging you with my-"
"It's fine..."
I looked up surprised
"If Fukuoka-san doesn't want to do it then it's fine. I'm sure I'll be able to find my way in the school along with everyone else..." He looked toward the ground with miserable, regretful eyes (like he was expecting me to say no), somehow able to smile painfully while talking.
Zero, Yuuki, Kaname and the retarded Chairman looked at me, expecting some response.
I felt my face getting hot.
"Fine. I-I'll do it" I pouted
"Really?" He looked up, his face breaking into his first true smile.
I blushed even harder.
"Y-yea. But it's just for a week! And stop calling my 'Fukuoka-san' I don't like it."
"Hai, Thank you..." He whispered happily, mesmerized by my acceptance to guide him around the school.
"Oh Hikaru kunnnn~!!!" The Chairman interrupted, grabbed both of his hands and hugged them tightly with "tears" streaming down his face. "You made her say yes!! What did you do to her to make her say yes? You need to teach me how to do that so that I can persuade her to do anything!"
Me and Zero somehow reacted together. My left hand on the chairman's right shoulder and Zero's right hand on his left shoulder, we both pulled him back and (surprisingly) said together,
"Sexual Harassment is not tolerated in Cross Academy."
He pouted but then smiled smugly, "This is my wonderful splendid daughter, Cross Yuuki, and this is Kiryuu Zero, who is a vampire hunter who's got no guts to kill a fly, so there is no need for you-"
His words were cut short as Zero punched him hard in the face and he was sent flying across the room. Yuuki sighed, turning to me she ordered, "Aka-chan, would you mind brining Hikaru-kun's Night class uniform?"
Still mesmerized by this Hikaru-kun's reaction when I accepted, I went to get the uniform the chairman had specially ordered for him which was specially tailored, benefiting his rank (Freaking purebloods...I want my uniform specially tailored too! *pouts*). I brought it back out, handing it to Hikaru-kun. He smiled and I gave a tiny winy smile back. His smiles seemed forced, as if he was grieving about some pain.
Yuuki-chan interrupted my thinking coming up with something unimaginable.
"Um...Zero, Is it just me, or do they look like twins?" She stated
Before I could even protest that we weren't related in any way, Kaname was right in front of her, covering her mouth with one of his elegant hands pulling her out of the room whispering something into her ear, making her blush deep crimson.
The chairman got up from his spot and went over to Hikaru-kun and me. He spoke to us sadly as if there was something that didn't go as planned.
"Akari-san, unfortunately Kaname-kun is unavailable right now as he is outside with Yuuki... Zero, it would be best if you went down to accompany Yuuki and Kaname-kun. Akari-san would you please lead Hikaru-kun to the Moon dorms and ask Ichijou-kun to find him a room."
Zero trudged out of the room, not wanted to follow Kaname, but had to, incase he did something to Yuuki-chan.
I saw him turn his head back and said, "be careful..."
"Oh shut up Zero, I can take care of myself."
He stopped his tracks and turned his head again. "Oh yea? Who got attacked by vampires when she was a kid?"
"Oh shut up..." I mumbled.
"Stop arguing you two...Zero, Kaname-kun and Yuuki is waiting for you. Akari-san, I'm sure Hikaru-kun is bored of waiting."
Zero walked out of the door once again. I turned back to Hikaru.
"Hai. Please come this way Hikaru-kun" I spoke politely, wanting him to forget my stupidness that I had shown to him.
The chairman followed us out quietly saying "Thank you so much for accepting this job Akari-san. I'm sure it'll do you a world of good one day." He was actually smiling sincerely to me.
But I was so dumb, I didn't understand a word that he had said and replied "Hah? What are you saying Chairman?"
But him being the stupid secretive Chairman, closed the door in my face. I stuck my tongue out at the wooden door.
Hikaru-kun giggle beside me, making me blush. His laughter seemed to be filled with the need to laugh now. Why was it that his feelings always confused me?
I stood back up straight, trying to take away my blush unsuccessfully and walked saying "what are you laughing at? It's the dumb Chairman's fault for not explaining everything properly."
"Gomen, It's just that when I'm around you, I feel more free, more happy. To tell you the truth, I haven't laughed like this for the past 10 years."
"Are you serious?!? How can you manage not to smile or laugh?" I gapped at him
"Oh, when you're grieving about your entire family dying, you wouldn't be able to laugh much either… It would just bring back more and more painful memories when I was with my family, and my beloved- Ah, gomen, I'm just blabbering on about random stuff aren't I?"
"No, I don't think so. It's pretty interesting actually, I've never knew my parents and never had any siblings myself...It's like my brain is missing out on a whole chunk of memory, as if someone just sucked it all out of me. You know what, I've never thought about this before but somehow, I'd give away everything I have just to have that chunk of memory back. 'Fukuoka Akari' isn't even my real name, some aunt just decided to change my name completely when they found me on their porch. Boring but-" I had stopped abruptly because the whole time I was blabbering about some crap, he had been looking intensely on me, as if we use to know each other when we were small, and we were separated for some reason and he's now trying to absorb every bob and bits of me so that I could be like his 'other half'. He was still staring at me even though I had stopped speaking. He had chocolate brown eyes and black hair just like me. Yuuki was right. We did look like twins, but it was just impossible because he was a Vampire and I wasn't. Let alone being a Pureblooded one.
The guard at the Moon Dorm entrance made us break our eye contact as he needed my name as proof that the Chairman did send me here instead of being some crazy 'Aidou-senpai fan' with Hikaru-kun as a Day student in disguise. Even more surprisingly, he nodded his head respectfully to Hikaru-kun, just like how he would have done if I walked in with Kaname. Hikaru-kun returned a soft smile. We reached a beautifully polished carved oak door. I shivered as I remembered my first memory.
"Are you cold?" He asked me gently, as if he was born to protect me.
"No...It's just that...I'm scared..." I replied him softly.
This topic required me talking about the past, which currently wasn't a good idea when we were standing in front of a house full of vampires.
"Why are you scared? ...Can you tell me?" he whispered back a question
"It's...It's just because I had a scary encounter with two scary vampires who were after my blood when I was five...It isn't a pleasant memory, but from what I remembered there was like this little angel who flew down and protected me... If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be here now, so I'm very grateful..." I looked at him at he was looking at me with those soft eyes again. I couldn't help it but I smiled softly back at him saying "I still can't pick. Between my memories and meeting that little angel once again...It's such a hard choice."
"I'm sure you'll get both of them..." he whispered
"...What makes you so sure?" I inquired
He smiled softly towards the ground again "It's just that you're a very kind person, you deserve to have both of your wishes granted, don't you think?"
I gasped at him. No one had ever said those words to me before. He smiled back to me and gently took my hand, reassuring me again that I won't be attacked for he would be protecting me.
I gently opened the door just as the wind blew in, I whimpered, they probably recognized my scent already as the wind blew. I opened the door even wider now.
Hikaru-kun was wrong.
Very wrong.
Something did attack me alright.
I opened the door wider.
A shadow lunged out at me.
I screamed...
