THE HEADMASTER'S OFFICE THAT NIGHT

We were sitting in Headmaster Cross' office waiting for an explanation for what occurred today. Kaname and I had a glass of Blood, from blood tablets each. We were all sitting in silence.

"I couldn't hide it from you Kaname and Tani," Headmaster said. "But after all, you really in a class of you're own. Without a drop of human blood coursing you or your ancestors veins, you're lineage is rare among vampires now. You're the vampire of vampires."

As if we could read each other's thought, which I knew was impossible, both Kaname and I brought our glasses to chest height as if to drink it.

"A pureblood vampire," Headmaster continued. "The powers of your ancestors have been passed on to you two. And it is for that reason your existence strikes fear in the heart of other vampires."

Kaname placed the glass he was holding on the table and pushed it away from him. "Headmaster Cross," he said standing up and walking towards the desk. "It is because I trust you that I have avoided bringing up this issue in the past." He placed his hands on the desk and leant slightly towards the Headmaster. "Regardless-"

I interrupted, knowing where Kaname was taking this conversation. I agreed to what he was going to say so I put in what I have wanted to say for a while now. "The steps you have taken are only minimal at best."

"Why do you continue to treat Zero like an ordinary student?" I heard the sound of something crushing and looked up to see that Kaname had curled his fingers into the desk. I got up and placed a hand on his shoulder to try to calm him down.

He must have been really angry as his muscles didn't lose and of its tightness.

"Stay this course and Zero will destroy the pacifist ideology you have worked hard for," Kaname continued as if I hadn't been standing next to him.

Headmaster cross sighed. "Kiryu's parents were killed by a vampire. And somehow in that blood bath only he miraculously survived. How can I be more cruel to him?"

It was my turn to sigh this time. "But we must tell you," I said. "No ordinary vampire killed his family." I stood with my back to the table and leaned against it. "It was a pureblood vampire, like us."

"You of all people should know," Kaname said before standing straight again. "In your day you saw many human life end in a miserable, wretched way. Back when you, Kaien Cross, were a Vampire Hunter."

The Headmaster closed his eyes, sighed and bowed his head slightly as if he were ashamed. But why would he be ashamed? He was one of the best Hunters when he was working.

It was silent for a while. After about five minutes it was starting to become awkward.

"It will happen," I spoke suddenly, breaking the silence. "Zero's fate is truly horrible but it's something he can't avoid."

"Any human who's bitten by a Pureblood's fangs and survives, becomes a vampire," Kaname explained.

That isn't all. "A human who is bitten by a Pureblood will suffer one of two fates. Dying from the loss of blood or, unfavourably, surviving and suffering the pain of slowly transforming into a vampire. Other vampires don't possess this dark power that Purebloods have."

"He was only a human, yet he resisted the powerful vampire instincts for four years. I respect his strength of will. However-" Kaname suddenly stopped in the middle of the sentence.

I wondered why until I smelled what I thought was the same thing he did; blood.
