A/N : Good Evening
A/N: I'm back! Sorry for the long wait. I've been busy with my school work. TT. At least I was able to write this. :) Hmm… Sorry because this chapter won't be that long. I'm also sorry for some errors. I'm really sleepy.
Thanks a lot for the people who viewed and reviewed.
I do not own Vampire Knight. It belongs to Matsuri Hino.
I hope you enjoy reading. :)

Chapter 5: SECRETS REVEALED
"We're home at last." Aido said glancing at Kiyomi who had been silent all the way. "H-hey! Are you alright?" the vampire asked nervously. Kiyomi regained her energy at last and she replied "Yes! Thanks for rescuing me earlier sempai!" Aido gave a sigh of relief and the two went in.
They decided to see the headmaster first and while walking Aido started a conversation to cheer Kiyomi up.
"I'm glad you stopped crying."
"W-why?"
"Well… I wasn't used to see girls crying."
"Really?"
"Yup."
"That's because you are used to seeing girls go crazy for you."
"H-hey! Are you teasing me?"
"Kind of."
"Well…you're not cute when you're crying. So don't cry."
Kiyomi giggled at the vampire's remark. Aido smiled too.
"At least I made her laugh…"
--
After their conversation, they quickly went for the headmaster. They thought that the eccentric man might be worried for them. The blonde vampire knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Aido opened the door and he let the girl beside him enter first. When the two are inside, they were surprised to see Takuma right before them.
"V-vice president!" are the only words that Aido can say. Kiyomi can't help it but to ask "Ichijou-sempai how did you make it here before us?" The care-free vampire replied "I quickly found the boy's house."
Kiyomi smiled "Really? Then let's go visit him sometime." Takuma's sweat dropped. "We can't do that. The boy's family is moving."
Takuma's fingers are crossed. "I hope she won't notice…" he mumbled to himself.
"Ah! Yuki-chan!" Aido exclaimed. Kiyomi saw Yuki staring outside the window. "Oh! I found Yuki-chan after I took the little boy home." Takuma said scratching the back of his head.
The headmaster suddenly came to them holding a tray of delicious treats. "Here, help yourselves." He said putting down the tray. He went to Yuki and gave her a pat on the shoulder. "Don't worry. Kiryu-kun will be alright."
Kiyomi heard that statement and she asked the headmaster "Did something happen to Zero?" Her voice was so loud that all the attention was on her. It didn't matter to her; she drifted her sights on Yuki.
"Zero's been looking for you. He must be home at this time." Yuki said her eyes on the floor.
Kiyomi felt her heart skip a beat.
"Now Yuki. Don't you have faith in Kiryu-kun?" the headmaster said. "Kiryu-kun is a guardian. Nothing bad will happen to him." He added with an assuring smile.
The two girls had calmed a bit.
--
"Well then headmaster. We shall get going." Takuma said bowing. "Thanks for the food." Aido added. The two vampires went out.
--
"Why don't you two go to sleep as well?" the headmaster asked. "When you wake up, I'm sure Kiryu-kun is here."
Yuki and Kiyomi nodded making their way towards their rooms.
When the two of them left, the headmaster's happy face became a serious one.
"Those attacks are…taking over Kiryu-kun again."
--
The moon shone upon the Cross Academy, fighting the darkness from prevailing. The dark aura from the Moon Dorms set free.
"What took you so long?" Kain asked his cousin. Aido just plopped on his bed and said "A troublesome level E was on the way."
Kain gave a sigh "I suppose you don't want to go level E hunting again, Hanabusa". Aido replied "I wouldn't mind doing it again. In fact this day had been a nice one."
Kain gave Aido a questioning look "Since when did you enjoy working?"
Aido didn't reply but he smiled.
"I really can't figure you out." Kain said.
--
"It's really late. Zero' not yet here." Kiyomi said trying to stay awake. After a few minutes she had gone to sleep.
--
"So as I was saying Kaname… There had been a lot of Level E nowadays." commented Takuma to Kaname who had been playing chess all by himself.
"I see. Then perhaps another search and destroy must be conducted."
"It appears so. Kaname."
"Okay vice president. Thank you for your report. You can go now."
"Yes."
Kaname stood up staring at the moon.
"Next time it's your turn… Kiryu…"
--
Midnight…
Zero was struggling to open the gates of Cross Academy. It's not that he can't open it. It's just that his vampire instincts
was taking over again. He was covered with sweat.
"Damn."
After a few moments, he was inside the Academy. He slowly made his way to the headmaster. He doesn't want anyone to see him like that.
--
The headmaster upon seeing the suffering Zero, quickly came up with blood tablets. Zero frowned at the sight of those tablets.
"I told you man times before. I don't need those."
"B-but Kiryu-kun…"
"It must be better if you shoot me here. I can't live like this forever."
"I can't do that. Yuki would be mad at me."
Zero left.
--
Zero entered his room. Then he fell on the floor, clutching his chest. "Damn. I may…die here…" he said. He stood up, locked his door and then he opened the light.
His eyes turned crimson.
Zero saw Kiyomi sleeping on the floor, her head resting on the side of Zero's bed. He tried to control his urges but he failed. He moved closer to her.
He knelt before her sleeping form and he brushed the red locks which covered her neck.
Kiyomi woke up at his touch. "Uhmmm...Zero! I'm glad you're home!" and she smiled. Zero looked at her blankly.
"Zero…what's wrong?" she asked.
Zero stood up pulling Kiyomi closer to him. He then pushed Kiyomi on his bed. He pinned her down not taking his eyes off her.
"Z-zero…what are you…" Kiyomi stuttered but before she can finish her sentence Zero had brushed his lips on her neck. Kiyomi didn't know what to say. Her heart began to beat faster.
Zero slowly showed his fangs. He then bit Kiyomi. Kiyomi felt the pain of being bitten. She bit her lip to avoid screaming. She heard the sound of her blood being sucked.
"What the..? Zero…is a vampire?"
Kiyomi tried to be free from Zero's grasp but she fell weak. "Z-zero…" and she fainted.

A/N: Whew… I can sleep at last. I've got classes tomorrow. Rush hour again! Take care!
