-1He was nearly there. He could see the building clear as day and at the break neck speed he was running, thanks to his new found strength as a result of fully turning, he would be there in a matter of moments. The thing he needed was there. It lay in it's holster on his desk where he had left it before visiting Kit that evening, because he felt he did not need it when he was there, but now as he drew closer to the building, Zero felt a presence that made him wish he had the gun on him already. As a level D vampire he could feel his presence before, and now as a level B, that man's aura was exuding and choking the very air with it.

Deciding that this was no time for a quarrel, Zero sprinted quickly the rest of the way to the dorm building that his room was in, and as he turned the corner, the one he had felt before was standing just outside his room, starring blankly out at the battle he knew was there.

" Even though she's concealing it, I'm sure every one in the Night Class can feel what's going on out there. The amount of energy flying around is.. Otherworldly. "

Zero narrowed his eyes and brushed passed the pure blood to his door, nearly pushing through it as he turned the knob and strode to his desk for the Bloody Rose. " What're you doing here Kaname? "

Kaname didn't answer a moment, he merely turned to look at Zero with eyes as deep red as blood itself. Then without warning, Kaname had quickly moved in front of the silver haired teen, making him take a step back. " That thing out there, it's likely that it will destroy the school if it's not taken care of soon. I can't have everything I've worked for ruined overnight. "

" Everything you've worked for? Is that all this is, is just some accomplishment to you? The people in this school, the others of the Night Class, even Yuu-- "

The last of Zero's question was interrupted by Kaname's hand as it grasped his neck tightly, squeezing to the point where the teen could just barely breathe. " Do not ever assume anything with me, especially when it comes to Yuuki. It is by her will alone that I let you live to this day and with her choice that I do not kill you for having the affections for her that you do. " Kaname's eyes were narrowed as he threw Zero into the wall across from him, cracking the drywall as the teen slid to the floor.

Coughing and rubbing his throat, Zero stood with one arm out stretched, the Bloody Rose pointed square in the middle of Kaname's heart. " I feel the same way.. Make no mistake about that, but I have no time to deal with your crap. " Pushing away from the wall, Zero ignored the pure blood's death stare as he moved back out into the hall and made his way down the stairs. He couldn't believe that Kaname actually had the gall to spit the words out that he had just now. Pure blood or not, there was no one letting him 'live' other then himself, and perhaps Yuuki. Zero thought about how she seemed to be the only thing that mattered to him for as long as he could remember at the moment. " It's not important right now, damnit. I need to get to where Kit is. "

" Kiriyu, hold on a moment. " Kaname called softly as he walked out of the dorm just shortly behind Zero.

" What now Kaname.. " Zero turned on his heels and stared at the pure blood, watching as he came closer. Kaname had stopped to the side of Zero, looking into the distance in the direction of the front gate, seeing Kit appear and disappear as she put up and brought down her barriers.

" I doubt that the power of that weapon alone will do anything to phase the beast out there. " Kaname sighed as he brought his hand up to run it through his bangs, tussling them slightly. " I hate to say it, but I think we should work together. I have an idea and to get it to work I'll need to talk to that blasted dragon without the creature hearing me. "

" You mean you can communicate in some sort of telepathic way with Hokaiju? " Zero turned to face in the direction that Kaname did, starting to move toward the building on which he had left Yuuki previously.

" It's a pure blood influence, not so much telepathy, but I can't force him to do anything It's more of a suggestion that I make with my aura that he and any other vampire can feel. " Kaname moved with Zero as their strides started to get longer, picking up the pace slightly.

" So what exactly is this plan that you have in mind? " Zero and Kaname were both now at a full run, quickly getting to building they needed to, but to Zero's surprise, the pure blood had started to vault up to one just behind it. With a grunt, the silver haired teen followed suit, standing somewhat behind him.

" You'll feel it once I start the influence.. Though I'm assuming you've already picked up on the spot on the creatures tail? " Kaname gestured to what he was able to see just as Zero had.

Zero nodded as he watched the spot, though with some difficulty as it was being thrashed about by it's owner. " Yea I saw it shortly before I ran back to my room, what about it? "

" We're going to use it against the creature, and the dragon is going to help us do it. " Kaname's eyes narrowed slightly and as the wind began to pick up around him, Zero could feel something come over him that he never had before, and all at once he had drawn the Bloody Rose to shoulder height and held his aim steady as he felt the sensation wash over him. Hokaiju had felt it as well and though he was all bone, the depths of his eyes shone a deep red, an acknowledgement of Kaname's plan, one that was to change his life forever.

A/N: Oh. My. God. I know it's been forever DX I'm so sorry but I've been suffering such horrible writers block and it was really hard for me to just get this out! I've had this kinda floating around in my mind, but I couldn't quite get it out no matter how hard I tried. WELL. Here we go, new chapter, another cliff hanger, and it's only going to get better. Stay tuned kiddies! :3
