The week went by slowly, at least to Kit and the majority of the students on campus. All the girls in the Day Class had gone out early in the week to pick out dresses and had ordered corsages to match the colors they were to wear.

Now the middle of the week, Kit had decided that she would never want to take on prefect duties of this sort again. Zero and Yuuki had reluctantly done their evening class change chores, while Kit had done everything for the Night Class. With all the activities she had barely enough time to decide on how her dress was to look that evening, though she knew it wasn't terribly important.

"It's important though, that Yuuki and Zero spend what time together they can. I just hope I am successful.. " Kit thought to herself, reminded of how the pair had spent the last few days with each other; laughing, talking about nothing and everything, eating in their favorite spot, and holding each other for hours at a time, not saying a word. Kit was worried about one thing. Kaname seemed to be increasingly more irritated as he saw less of Yuuki. Chairman Cross had explained to the pure-blood, to some extent anyway, why she was not around to do her nightly prefects duties, and why Kit was doing them instead. That morning, she heard from her dorm room that Kaname was starting to get fed up with it all. He had screamed at Ichijou as the eloquent vampire tried to pry the reason for Kaname's foul mood out of him.

"It is none of your concern Ichijou!"

There was a resounding crack that made the windows rattle, and Kit knew he had released a large surge of energy. If something was not done soon, the Moon Dorms would be reduced to rubble before the dance. Kit decided that, against her better judgment, she should talk with the grumpy pure-blood. As she left her room, still several feet from Kaname's room, she could feel the menacing energy he was exuding.

"This is exactly why I dislike most pure-bloods.. " Kit murmured as she quickened her pace to a brisk walk, "temper tantrums the equivalent of a small storm.. "

Kit reached the hallway that Kaname's room was in within seconds, noting with surprise that Aidou and Kain were standing outside, guarding the doors. Kain was as expressionless as he always was, save for a bit of sweat that trickled down his brow. Aidou however, was obviously disheveled and had a visible cut on his dainty right cheek. Kit assumed that Kaname had taken a bit of his aggression out on the playboy, not caring at the point in time.

Aidou looked up as he heard footsteps, frowning as he saw Kit approach them, "Ah.. Kit, I don't think its such a good idea for you to go in there. Kaname does not wish to be disturbed. "

"Thank you for the concern, Aidou, but I'm a big girl. " Kit defiantly walked between the two, setting a hand on the handle, Aidou's slim fingers grasping her wrist only a second later.

"My concern is for Kaname, not for you. " Aidou's eyes glinted as he gave the last word strong emphasis. The curly haired vampire swallowed hard as he tried to keep his resolve, beginning to visibly shake when he noticed Kit's eyes. The pupils were no longer even visible as she stared him down, the normally tranquil depths of her green eyes being replaced with a bright and somehow frightening purple. Aidou quickly released the red-head's wrist, back stepping just as quickly to his original spot by the door. Kain noticed the commotion out of the corner of his eyes, turning his head to look at Kit. The tall and mostly quiet vampire reached out his hand to attempt the same as Aidou, knowing that his partner was, at times, cowardly. To Kain's surprise, he could not even touch Kit. It felt as if an invisible force was keeping his arm just inches away from her arm. Kit's eyes raised to Kain's level, making the teen blink.

"I'll let myself in, thank you boys. " Kit flashed the pair a small smile before turning the handle on Kaname's door and let herself into the dark room.

"Get out. " It was two words that should've sent chills down Kit's spine, made her leave the room post haste, but she stayed rooted to the spot, her eyes easily focusing on where Kaname stood in the shadows. "Do you have a hearing problem? I said get out! " Kaname released a surge of energy that hit the wall directly to the left of Kit, indenting it to the point that the boards used for support were showing.

"You know, instead of sulking like a child, you could go talk to Yuuki yourself. " Kit stood where she had entered, her hands on her hips. "The Chairman will not take kindly to the damage you're doing to the Moon Dorms for such a petty thing. " Kit made sure the emphasis she put on the last few words were heavy, but in a playful tone as she just smiled at the pure-blood.

"You dare say such things.. to a pure-blood? " Kaname was on the verge of boiling over. Had this creature come here purposely to mock him? She obviously was underestimating what he could do. Maybe the red-head needed a bit of a lesson in manners to someone higher then her. Kaname knew she could hold him back, that she could create shields to guard her from attack and make herself invisible, but surely this creature who was only around three feet tall in her normal form was not as powerful as a pure-blood such as himself. Kaname made up his mind; he would teach her a lesson and take out some of his aggression on her.

Kaname turned to Kit now, his eyes narrowing as the bay windows behind him burst open, the curtains that adorned them being shredded, wind like daggers as it whirled passed Kaname. The wind never touched Kit, only dug further holes into the wall above and to the left of her and splintering the double doors on her right. He had anticipated she would shield herself and took the opportunity to use his agility to get behind her, easily slipping one arm under her chin, the other grasping her wrist to pull it behind her back.

"You really thought you could best me, little fox? " Kaname's words were soft, but coated with venom as he held her in the air. She squirmed in his grasp, legs kicking lightly.

"Please, Kaname, I was only trying to -- ackggh! Ka-Kaname! " The pure-blood had tightened his grip on her throat, making her kick at him now. He tilted her head to one side, whispering against her ear.

"I warned you, Kit. Now you must be taught a lesson. " Kaname began to lean his head toward the crook in her neck, stopping halfway. Kit had started giggling as she sat there in his clutches. It was only a matter of seconds before she had burst into full laughter. Kaname jerked his head back, watching the red-head laugh. He tightened his hold on her neck, but she only continued.

"Teach me a lesson, oh you are funny Kaname. " Kit turned her head to see the surprise in his eyes, only making her giggle more.

"I do not find this situation humorous. You're about to be drained to within an inch of your life. "

"Poor Kaname. You should've realized by now that I've been toying with you. " Kit grinned widely as she felt Kaname tense behind her. His grip started to tighten again, to the point that would have easily strangled a normal person. Unfortunately for Kaname, Kit was not a normal person. In one swift motion, Kit grabbed Kaname's arm that held her above the floor, using only a little bit of force to pull the arm away and use it to fling Kaname over her head and onto his back with a loud thud. The pure-blood coughed in surprise as he landed, blinking in disbelief.

Kit knelt to one side of the tall teen as he lay there motionless, his pride obviously very bruised. "Now I will say again Kaname, go talk to Yuuki and quit sulking. Do that and I won't tell anyone you were bested by a fox less than three feet tall. Oh, excuse me.. bested by a girl. " Kit watched with a laugh that sounded borderline evil. "Didn't know I could read minds did you? And no, I don't delve farther then I should. Mainly just to mess with people, especially ones with a lot of power like yourself. Now get up and go talk to Yuuki. Wouldn't want your little friend's outside to see you in this state. " Kit stood and waited for Kaname to do the same before giggling and leaving the tall brunette to his vices.
