Chapter Six: Kaname's Weakness

Turning his head, Zero saw the same eyes Yuuki had before she collapsed. But he did not falter; instead he gazed steadily into his captors stare. Vaguely, Zero was aware of screaming from Rima, and shouts from Shiki. But, he could only focus on Kaname. "Hm, didn't think you'd die today, did you?" the prince of vampires inquired dully.
