Another chapter of the story Blood Rose. Thanks to the reviewers and I hope that the first five people that reviewed liked the short preview. I am going to do the same with the rest of the story. First five reviewers get a short preview of the next chapter. This is all going to my website. I have to say that I was mad due to somebody using my story in another website without my permission. I honestly can't stand people like that. But me and another person already took care of it. But anyway...here you have another chapter of Blood Rose.

Disclaimer- I don't own Vampire Knight, it's characters or beauty and the beast.

A/N- The next chapter will either come on august 2 or 3.


Chapter 5

The next day after Kaname and Zero's 'little' discussion came slowly for Zero. He woke up at noon only to find Yuri and Yuki staring at him. He said nothing at them and ignored their disturbing stares for a minute. But he had to admit that it was difficult to ignore those big, bright eyes starring at him.

"What do you want?" he asked when he couldn't take it anymore.

Both Juri and Yuki jumped over to Zero until they were face to face with the silver haired man.

"Well, excuse us for wanting to invite you to dinner" Juri said with a mock of pain.

Zero let out a sigh and sat down. He picked Juri in one hand and Yuki with the other.

"You heard what Kaname said...or yelled. I can't get out until he says so" Zero told them.

Yuki let out a chuckle.

"What's so funny?" Zero asked.

"I never thought that you would actually follow Kaname's orders. Since yesterday I thought that you were the 'I just follow my own rules' type.

Zero stayed silent after that. The girl did had a point. When did he care about what Kaname said?

"You have a point"

Juri took that as a yes and jumped over to the door, Yuki quickly following her mom. She turned around to face Zero one more time "Come to the dinning room in one hour. Cross and the others are preparing dinner and they have to find a way that Haruka doesn't tell Kaname. But you will enjoy it. Our cooks are the best" and with that both ladies left.

"What am I suppose to do in a hour?" Zero asked as if somebody was hearing him. He actually forgot that there was indeed someone hearing him.

"We can talk" came Shizuka's voice.

"What If I don't want to?" Zero asked.

"Then as you asked a second ago, what are you suppose to do for an hour?" Shizuka asked him. Why did the boy was so stubborn?

"I don't know" Zero began thinking for a moment. He couldn't just sit around doing nothing. He was surprised he even survived two days locked inside a room. But he is going to sneak out. He might as well do it now.

Zero stood up and put on his shoes. He walked over the same place that Juri and Yuki left until he was stopped by Shizuka, who was blocking the entrance in front of him.

"Where do you think you are going?" Shizuka asked the silver haired boy.

Zero sighed.

"You heard the previous conversation, right?" Shizuka nodded. "Then you must know that I'm going to the dinning room"

"Weren't you suppose to go there in an hour?"

"I'm bored Shizuka. I have spent two days inside this room. Can't I just go to the dinning room and wait there?"

Shizuka stared at Zero for a moment. It was the least she could do for him. The poor boy haven't eaten in the two days he has been here. And he doesn't have his father with him anymore. Maybe she could let him go for some time. Kaname is probably locked in his room.

"Fine" she muttered. When Zero was going to get out she grabbed his arm " Just...don't enter in the room at the end of the hallway"

"Why would I do that?"

"That's one of the most personal rooms for Kaname. There are some items there that are not meant to be discovered. If anyone enters they have to suffer the consequence. So don't enter" and with that she left Zero go. Why did she had a feeling that she shouldn't have told Zero about the room?

As for Zero, Shizuka just activated his curiosity senses. He scanned both sides of the hallway. At one side were the stairs. It was probably the way he had to go. But he had an hour left so he was looking for the room. At the other way was a large, black door that had a weird symbol at the bottom. That must be the room Shizuka was talking about. And that is the room that Zero wanted to see. Maybe in the room was a secret about Kaname. He never got to know Kaname too much. And Kaname never got the opportunity to know more about him either. Maybe if didn't act so bad Zero could talk to him. Maybe.

Zero quietly walked around the large hallway. His curiosity got the best of him and he was determined to know more about Kaname.

He kept walking until he found the large door right in front of him. He slowly opened it to show a very fancy room. He examined the area. It was dark but he could still see his surroundings. A broken mirror could be seen right in front of him besides a couch that had one of it's legs missing. But something else caught zero's attention. A picture of a very handsome man could be spotted in one of the corners. He had long, brunette hair and his eyes were a beautiful shade of brown. Those eyes seemed very familiar. But the picture had a slash right in the middle of the man's face.

Zero took one last glance at the picture before his attention was directed to another item.

A rose. But it was no ordinary rose. The rose was crimson red, as if it was made of blood. It was truly beautiful, even tough some of it's petals fell. But it seemed healthy. Like it just bloomed. The rose was inside a crystal cage.

'Why would a rose be inside a cage?' Zero thought to himself as he got closer to the rose. It was even more beautiful when he got to see it closer. He could swear that he saw sparks coming out of the center of the rose. He was probably seeing things. He was starving. He really should get going.

"I'll be back" he whispered to himself and closed the door.

This time he went downstairs. He kept walking, not sure where the dinning room was. He suddenly heard some shouting.

"CROSS, YOU IDIOT! LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID!" he heard Haruka shouting from another room.

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING AN IDIOT! YOU ARE THE ONE THAT KEPT GETTING IN MY WAY!" this time he heard Cross shouting.

"I AM NOT THE ONE THAT DROPPED THE PLATES ON THE FLOOR!" Haruka once again screamed.

"SHUT UP OR YOU WILL WAKE HIM UP!" He heard Juri screamed. There was some silence after that.

Zero entered the dinning room to see that there were broken plates everywhere. He chuckled at this. The little fight he heard was the most entertaining thing he had since he began living in this castle...or prison.

"Zero. You're early" a stressed Juri said. "Sorry for the mess. This two can't stop arguing for even a second" she pointed with her eyes at Cross and Haruka.

"Don't worry. I was bored anyway" Zero explained.

"Dinner will be here soon. Just wait until we find new plated. Thank god those were not one of the living plates" and with that she left to help the others to clean the mess up.

Zero just sat and watched as all of them cleaned the previous mess and waited for his dinner. There was already some food served but he knew that it was not all. But as he waited for the food one thought invaded Zero's head.

'Who could be the man from the picture?'

TBC


I was going to leave it at the part where Zero left the secret room but I added a little bit. I know that in the movie Belle gets discovered but let's wait a little for that part. As I said before, first five reviewers get a preview of the next chapter. Now, how about you click on the review button ^_^
