Akane skipped happily down the path, her arm swinging in rhythm to Zero's as she hummed a soft tune under her breathe. The sun had just begun to set and she could see ahead of them, a group of day class girls crowding around the moon dorms.
"Why do they gather so?" Akane asked, looking up at Zero.
"Because their clueless." He mumbled. She frowned at him. It wasn't a sufficient answer so she turned to Yuuki.
"They think that the vampires are very beautiful people. Their in awe of them." Yuuki said kindly.
"That's rather idiotic of them. Shouldn't they be warned?"
"No, oh no Miss. Osaka-san. They can not be told. They can never be told about the night class." Yuuki stressed. "That's what me and Zero are for, to make sure no harm comes to the day class or night class."
"That's why Zero-san has a gun?" Zero looked down at her gray eyes to Yuuki's round ones in surprise. "I saw it when he stood. Do not worry Yuuki-chan. I would never think of touching it."
"It's only if Zero is in grave danger. He would never use it otherwise." Yuuki said in a hurry. "Right Zero?"
"Yeah." He said. "Only if I have to."
"I understand. What may I do to help with your duties Zero-san?" He sighed. 'Stay out of my way' was what he had wanted to tell her but he decided against it. She was only a little girl, he had to remember that.
They made it to the group of giggling girls, and Zero pulled his hand free as they turned to stare at Akane.
"Oh she's adorable!" Someone shouted.
"Is she yours Kiryu-san?!"
"They both have that solemn look!"
"The cutest thing!" He ignored all of them and motioned for Akane to follow. He took her down the line, all the day class praising her as they went.
"Stand here. If anyone tries to pass you, tell them to step back." He gave her the smallest portion of the line, the last part before the building where very few girls bothered to gather.
"I don't see how this will help you Zero-san?"
"It's a big job." He said flatly. As long as she wasn't in the way and he could still look after her. She nodded and stepped to the spot he had pointed.
"Oh Kiryu! Is she are little prefect!?"
"Isn't that sweet!" Just then the door opened and the night class filed out, drawing the girls attention. Zero returned to his usual spot, having to spread his arms wide while the screaming began.
"Step back!" He repeated with Yuuki farther down the line as Aido and Kaname passed. Akane was doing rather well, mimicking Zero's serious face.
After the night class had made it safely through, Yuuki expected the girls to return back to their rooms. Instead they turned to Akane, making one huge circle around her and began asking her question, petting her raven black hair and touching the expensive silken dress she wore.
"Wow, it may be a little more difficult to keep an eye on her then I thought." Yuuki said to Zero, he frowned in agreement.
"What are you doing out here?" One of the girls asked.
"Helping Yuuki-chan and Zero-san." Akane replied.
"Where are you staying?"
"With Yuuki-chan."
"Are you related to Yuuki or Kiryu?"
"No."
"Look at her hair!"
"That's the prettiest dress I've ever seen!"
"Why are you helping them?"
"I asked Zero-san if I could." Zero sighed once more and began pushing his way through the crowd to get to her.
"She's so cute!"
"What's your name?"
"Where are you parents?"
"They're dead." Akane replied, answering the question in hopes that they would leave her alone. They didn't.
"Oh you poor thing!"
"How did they die?"
"So you're living here!?"
Zero finally managed to get to Akane, picking her up in one arm before the girls could swarm over her anymore. She was so light, it surprised him.
"Enough! Go back to the dorms!" He snapped. Akane wrapped her left arm around his neck and stared blankly at the girls, more annoyed at them then anything.
Reluctantly, with Yuuki's persuasion, they started to leave, still murmuring how Zero-Kiryu, was taking care of the poor orphan girl.
"Are you alright Osaka-sama?" Yuuki asked, looking up at the little girl who still hung in Zero's arm.
"Yes. I'm sorry Zero-san. I suppose I offered more work then help." He placed her gently back on the floor.
"You should take her to bed Yuuki. She'll be tired." Zero said.
"Ok.-"
"Won't you come to say good night Zero-san?" Akane asked.
"I'll say good night now. I'm going to bed to."
"See you in the morning Zero." Yuuki said. He nodded and looked at Akane who motioned with her hand for him to lean down. He did, and she leaned in close to whisper in his ear.
"Thank you Zero-san, don't worry I hate Kaname-sama as well and Yuuki-chan isn't in love with him." She then kissed his cheek and skipped over to Yuuki. "Good night!" He waved and watched as they walked to the girl dormitories.
He was sure he had never said he hated Kaname, at least to her, and positive that no one had mentioned Yuuki and the purebloods relationship. Perhaps Akane wasn't that much of a vampire but she was far from human. How did she know these things?
He shook the thought away and headed for his room. He was passed exhausted, all he wanted to do now was sleep.
