Chapter Two- -X

X – Mirror Eyes-x –

I need you more than anything
our heart is so lonely
and I just want to hold you forever

One year had passed, and Cross still waiting for his beloved son, his beautiful Zero-chan to return home where he truly belong , but now his little angel was living at the outsides of Tokyo in the famous Twilight Mansion.
With him were his protectors and closest relatives, the ones who remained alive, the only ones that would be able to protect him for the upcoming war.

Yet Cross longed for Zero, to see his child happy, running around the house, giggling and laughing, oh how the former hunter missed his little boy.

Xx— Twilight Mansion

"Towko-chan tiwcklwes" The little angel of now six years giggled and tried to stop Toko from tickling him.

Toko was a girl around 10 with light read head and deep honey eyes, she was Zero's cousin, she and his brother Tsukumo were Zero's only relatives. Tsukumo was 7 years; he was pretty much like Zero, with his unique silver hair. The two looked like brothers when they were younger they could be easily confused, expect for the color of eyes, the little angels were lavender, while Tsukumo's honey-colored ones just like his sister.

"Luwka!" Even if the little angel giggles, he called for his protector, who was far away neared a tree with his arms folded, thinking about something, about the past, and the present, about his betrayal, about his little Zero and their bond and about her… he was thinking about Yuki. Sodom was on his neko / human form running after a butterfly trying to catch it, the little neko heard his little master cry and ran after him calling at his old master.

"Master hurry Zero is sad!" The little neko boy cried and held Luka's hand pulling it with him and running after Zero.

Luka was still thinking about that time when he met Yuki Giou, a beautiful human girl, the light of God, the protector, the princess, he fell in love with her, he had completely fallen for the young woman, it was so much his devotion and love that he decided to switch sides. The powerful Opast had betrayed his clan to be with her, with Yuki.

Nevertheless, after that fatal war, his beloved Yuki died in his arms, asking him to forget about her, to be happy. The beautiful girl had told him that someone more pure and innocent would come to his life, someone to love him, their love would be strong enough that they needn't to create a contract, their bond was strong both soul and hearts, body and mind.

Moreover, at first Luka did not believe in those words, for years he was devastated, locking himself, crying for his lost, it had to passed hundreds of years until that pure being appeared on his way. The little being had escaped a terrible death, fortunately was not at the hands of the duras, the little baby had been abandoned and had left alone in an alley, in a small crib. Luka heard the cry of the angel and went to see, a beautiful baby boy, with huge lavender eyes, there it was such a beautiful creature all alone and scared, crying for his mommy, wanting to be hold. At this image with the moon caressing the soft baby skin and illuminating his lavender eyes, Luka felt such a strong bond connecting them, a bond so strong that not even death could break.

Suddenly he felt like someone was pulling his wrist and then heard Sodom's voice, saying something about his little angel needed him. Luka did not hesitate and ran faster thinking that his child could be injured or in danger.

When he get close to where the boy was, he could realize his soft giggles, and Toko tickling him, the little angel was blushing and trying to escape from her. When the Opast appeared, Zero felt the strong presence and smiled; he stood up and ran at his protector.

"Luwka" The little angel whispered with his baby cheeks still blushing, he want at his savior and hugged his leg. Luka kneeled and took little Zero-chan on his arms, the little boy placed his tiny arms around Luka's neck and giggled

"Oh Luka-san it's good to see you here, Zero-chan and I will go to eat" said Toko a little flushed as standing up and brushing the grass left on her clothes. Sodom had changed to his baby dragon form, the little black fuzz was hovering above Zero's and Luka's heads.

The little angel was still hugging the neck of his opast, hiding his little silver head in the boy's neck. Luka's silver eyes stared at the young girl and nodded following the girl inside the Twilight Mansion. When they arrived at the commoner room, they saw Tsukumo playing with two other boys, one about 8 and the other 10.

"That's cheating!" Tsukumo said, while the two other boys laughed.

"It's not" Said a young boy of light brown hair almost blond with lovely hazel eyes named Shusei, beside him was another boy of ten with wild blond hair and dark green eyes. Both boys were Tsukumo friends and Zero's guardians.

Hearing Tsukumo's voice and Shusei and Hotsuma laughs, little Zero giggled and he turned his little face glancing at the three, his tiny lips curved into a beautiful smiled while Luka's hand pet his little head.

"Shwuswei Howtswuma donwt lawhg owf Twswumow" Little Zero scolded, realizing that both Hotsuma and Shusei were laughing at Tsukumo, the little angel called his cousin Tsumo because he could not pronounce the name of his cousin right. Nevertheless, the silver-haired boy and honey eyes did not care; it was cute the way in which Zero called him.

Luka also smiled at his little angel reaction, this little boy in his arms was so pure and innocent, this little angel was his life now.

I'll watch over you

When the night falls

I'll be by your side

Because you belong to me

As I belong to you

Xx—

During the night, Zerorin began to yawn and rubbing his eyes, his head falls on the nearest red cushion. The little angel was falling asleep.
Sodom had fallen asleep and Luka had placed him in his little crib, the little dragon always accompanied him everywhere and protected Zero.

"Might be tired," thought the Opast then turned back the black sofa and smiled seeing his little angel opening and closing his lavender eyes, trying to be awake.

"Sleepy?" Asked tenderly and the small boy nodded, yawning tenderly, with a cute pout, Luka chuckled and went to his little boy, carrying him gently and placing his little body in the bed, covering his body, keep the boy warm. Little Zero closed his eyes and drew a smile on his face when his head felt the soft pillow and warm covers. Luka smiled and placed a soft kiss on his angel's forehead and lips. The he went to the bathroom and took a shower, after a few minutes he left the bathroom wearing only the trousers of his pajamas, he did not like to wear the shirt, so his shapely chest was bare.

He looked at his bed and saw his little angel sleeping peacefully, his tiny arms hugging Lucky, his little neko plush. Luka smiled and brought the tiny body near his, and smiled, slowly closing his silver eyes, allowing himself to sleep for a while.

Outside, the darkness began to reign, and with it the rain began to fall, thunder and lightning lit up the room, showing the silhouettes of the trees in the blue walls of that room, little Zero-chan awoke so suddenly, hearing the loud thunder and tree branches scraping the window. Monstrous figures appeared on the walls. The child's lavender eyes looked with fear and hid his small head under the covers.

Luka felt the little body was moving from one side to side; he also heard Zero's little beats, he felt his angel fear and slowly pulled the little body closer to his.

"What's wrong angel?" Luka asked as sweetly as he could, this tone of voice only used it for Zero and no one else, thus calmed him, regardless of his fear and worry.

"Mowntwerw" The little voice said accompanied by a soft sob.

Luka smiled realizing that his little boy was afraid of the storm, with his hand stroked the head of his angel. "It's okay little one, it's just the rain" he said quietly "And I here with you, I will protect you… forever," He said in a sweet, reassuring voice, his child finally stopped shaking and his sobs were calming down.

"Sleep well my love," said the Opast, feeling his angel silver relaxed and went back to sleep.

The Opast decided to stay awake knowing that his child may re-awaken frightened and trembling, and definitely, he would not let a silly storm scared his beloved angel.

He remained holding his silver beauty, protecting him from any nightmare or cold, Luka had uncovered the little angel's head and now he could admire the sleeping form of the child. So peaceful and pure with a smile on that angelic face, his tiny white hands clutching to his chest, he could hear the soft breathing and calm beats of heart.

At dawn, Zero began to stretch his little body and left the warm body of his protector to approach his black little neko plush, his lavender eyes opened and closed trying to regulate the sunlight that began to illuminate the room.

Sodom was asleep in his little bed, its body rose and fell as he slept; his little pointy ears began to move gently making little Zero giggle.

Luka sighed and rolled his body near his angel whispering in the ear of the little one "Good morning Angel" said sweetly making the small boy form a tender smile and a thin pink adorned his baby cheeks.

"Mwoninw Luwka" The boy said softly and giggled when Sodom appeared over his little head, the baby dragon moved its fluffy tail making Zero chuckled and raised his tiny arms trying to catch the little neko.

Luka rose from his bed and then went for Zero-chan, carrying the little boy on his strong arms and leading him into the bathroom, preparing in advance the water not too hot or too cold. The water was calm and a thin scent of violets.

Slowly he removed his pants and boxers, leaving them on the floor while removing as well his child's pajamas. Slowly he entered the tub and carried Zero near him, Zero who began to move and protest trying to escape the water.

"Oh no this time you will not escape," said Luka holding with a little strength but without hurting the small waist of his child.

Little Zero-chan began to cry when his little feet reached the water, though it was warm the angel feel the water a bit cold and started moving. Luka saw his angel's tears and sighed not wanting his angel to cry. With his power made the water to warm more and gently placed the little boy between his legs. Slowly and tenderly he began to wash Zero's head, preventing the soap to fall neared his angel's eyes and mouth.

Zero was more comfortable with the hot water, while Luka washed his hair, his tiny hands started to play with the water and he created small bubbles, giggling and smiling. The carefully Luka rinse is angel's silver hair and began to wash his tiny body. With a teddy bear shaped sponge, Luka poured baby soap with scented of violets, started rubbing the sponge on the child's body, causing Zero giggles when Luka's hands touched his belly and the teddy sponge tickling him.

After cleaning his angel, Luka carried him carefully, when little Zero felt the cold air he clung to the chest of his Opast. Luka smiled at the gentle action of his child and put a towel around the two, gently drying his little one.

The Opast also gave a small silver-colored towel to the child to dry his hair. When Zero finished drying his hair, they left the bathroom; Luka placed Zero's body on the bed and went to his closet to get his clothes and the child's ones.

He decided to dress Zero with white pants and a shirt the same color with long sleeves, since it was almost winter decided Zero wore a white coat of the same white. As for him, he decided on his black leather pants and a sleeveless coat the same color.

He approached the bed and knelt down, Zero was waiting for his protector, when Luka came and knelt front of him, Zero smiled tenderly.

"Zero, can you put your clothes while I finished my bath" Luka asked tenderly as his hair still had traces of baby shampoo. Zero smiled and nodded happily.

The Opast smiled as well and went to the bathroom to finish his bath; it took no more than five minutes and left the bathroom dry and fully clothed. He looked at the bed and found the cutest image he has ever seen.

There was his little angel with his shirt badly off; Zero was trying to put his tiny arm through the hole where the head was. His pants were backwards and he had put on one sock and the other not. Luka laughed and went to his angel who had apparently stuck in his shirt and began to struggle with tears in his lovely eyes.

"Oi, how did you get there," said the silver-eyed boy and freed Zero from his shirt, noticing the small tears in his angel beautiful face. "Look" The Opast said and he explained Zero how to put on his shirt, pants and socks and sneakers.

Xx— Back at Cross House

Maybe his little angel was not coming back yet, but life was not so cruel to Kaien, the former hunter had connections with the vampires and hunters, it were pretty impressive during his long life he had tried to create a peaceful coexistence between both species. Moreover, when he learned of the alleged suicide of the Kuran, a powerful family of pureblood, the former hunter did not doubt for a second to help the only survivors of that family.

Kuran Kaname Kuran and Yuki, of course due to such events, the little girl had lost her memories and now was called under the name of Yuki Cross.

The events repeated again, and a little angel came to his house, accompanied by her guardian and brother Kaname Kuran, who for security reasons had chosen not to make her sister to remember who she truly was and return her to her vampire form.
The way in which Yuki and Kaname looked, played, their strong bond, somehow reminded him of his other angel, his beloved Zero-chan.

"Yuki I told you thousands of times to wait for dad and not leave the house unprepared" scolded the former hunter with crocodile tears, saying things such as his daughter would not listen to him and not love him.

Yuki, a little brown-haired and chocolate eyes girl about five years was ignoring her father and ran at the arms of that vampire who saved her from being devoured by a hideous monster.

"Kaname-sama!" Cried the girl and ran as fast as she could, she clung at the body of her savior.

"Yuki" Kuran Kaname the pureblood vampire, heir to the vampire throne and Yuki's brother smiled, seeing his little sister, though she did not remember him, he was glad to see his little girl. Kaname was determinate to keep his sister safe away from any danger, even if that mean the girl does not remember who he really was.

"How have you been?" The brunette asked softly, looking how innocent and pure was his precious girl.

"Fine… Kaname-sama, Cross-san said a year ago you rescued me from scary vampire, so happy birthday Kaname-sama "said the little girl hugging the vampire.

"No Yuki, today we celebrate your birthday, so that means Happy Birthday to you… Yuki" Kaname said tenderly, feeling the warmth in his heart with every word Yuki said.
The pureblood vampire knew very well he had to wait, he should first kill all the corrupt society of vampires, and thus he could awake his sister memories, that way he would forget his loneliness to which he was confined.

Waiting for a light beam that could warm his so lonely heart

Xx-

Therefore, time passed both Cross-san House as in Twilight Mansion; two angels lived happily, each of the children were protected by their savior. The little girl would be hidden again, away from the dark and wicked world, the vampire world; she was transformed into human to live a quiet happily life, until the time reach and she would return at her own world, welcome to her race as the pureblood princess Kuran Yuki.

While the other angel would live under the protection of his guards, and him, his protector, his dark guardian angel, the angel's powers were sealed for the good of humanity. His dormant power would be awakened later, when little angel was old enough to control his gifts. It would be then the sacrifice, the silver-haired angel would give his life to save the world from the cold darkness.

It was his duty

as the prophecy said.

Come with me, please do not fear me
because in the darkness of the night I will take care of you, the mantle of my arm will protect you as my heart will split to save you.

A truly silent so painful, so deep, burning my soul and with it darkness disappears, do no fear me My angel, I am your protector.

I will always protect you with my mantle.

Always be…

Xx—

"Takahiro!"

They heard screams, cries, the barrier had fallen and were now unprotected. They have to fight, they have to protect the silver angel.

"Where's Zero?" Asked one of the members of the Giou Clan.

"Toko-chan is with him, in the sacred room, they are hidden," said his brother Tsukumo who carried his gun with him were Shusei and Hotsuma.

"And Luka?" Aya asked, she was Zero-chan's nanny.

"Outside, he is trying hard to avoid the Duras entering the Mansion" Hotsuma replied he was ready to show his power at those disgusting creatures.

In the sacred room, a shielded and dark room for protection of the angel, were both Toko and Zerorin, the boy wept for the absence of his protector.

Toko kept the child in her arms trying to calm him but it was impossible, Zero-chan sobs increased, while the room shakes, and outside was starting a fight between the Zweilt and the owners of the darkness the Duras.

Toko was scared, but she could not show her fear not to Zero, she embraced and sang a lullaby at angel who kept sobbing and trembling.
Outside the room, in the gardens, halls and everywhere on the Mansion you could see bursts of fire, light and darkness. Luka's body was emitting lightning he was decided to kill those bastards, he had to protect Zero, and he had to save his little angel, his soul mate.

All that was a truly symphony of light and darkness, it was scaring yet beautiful, the combination of both sides, bad and good, white and black. It was a storm, a frequent and endless struggle, where monsters of darkness thrown at the mercy of the Zweilt.

Hotsuma launched its flames at any creature approaching, while Shusei created a shield to protect the members of the house.

Takahiro also fight, exceeding the limits of his power, it was not time yet, he could not awaken Zero's powers. The child, the angel was still very young and his powers were a danger to himself and those around him.

They had to fight and protect Zero at least until the child is old enough to awaken his great gift.

Suddenly, someone broke the door of the sacred room and that someone crept into the room camouflaged his body with the darkness; very slowly the creature approached the redhead who cradled the angel.

Bang!

They heard a shot and the one who had dared to penetrate the room fell into the hands of Tsukumo and his weapon.

"Toko, you have to leave now!" Tsukumo yelled at his sister Toko who kept holding Zero's tiny body tightly.

The girl still in shock shook his head, she refused to leave her home, to let others fight alone "I will not go" said the girl with a trembling voice

"I'm not asking you" said her brother "Is an order" The look of her brother was really scary.

"Tsukumo ..." The redhead sighed with tears in her eyes, fearing to leave her brother alone.

"There's no time to get melancholy" said Tsukumo handing a sword to his sister "Take Zero to a safety place, the portal will send you somewhere safe, you wait there until we find you"

"But ..." Toko felt a tear slid down her cheek and nodded.. "Be safe please I don't want to lose my only brother," The girl said and run with Zero in her arms, she ran as fast as she could and went deep into the forest, there she saw the portal.

"Please be safe," She said looking back at the Twilight Mansion in flames, and then she turned her at Zero's sleeping form and smiled sadly.

"There's the boy, caught the child!" One of the demons shouted.

Luka saw all Duras ran into the woods, he did not hesitate to follow them by launching bursts of power, with his sword broke in half these poisonous creatures. His silver eyes showed no mercy, his blood was boiling just thinking that these beings could capture and killed his precious angel.

With firm steps, he walked through the dark forest his sword emitted a great light and power, with Sodom transformed in a fully dragon. The powerful Opast fight with all his soul, his fury had been unleashed and in his mind were his words his promise:

To Protect Zero…

The portal began to close it was now or never. She had to make a choice although Toko did not want to leave her family behind, protect Zero was the priority. She closed her eyes and jumped inside; holding Zero tight to her body, the portal quickly transported them to somewhere far from home. One of the Duras managed to penetrate the site without being killed but severely injured.

Luka ran into the portal on its way to killing any demon who dared to stand in front of him, maybe they did not know, maybe had not heard of that legend, the son of the darkness had betrayed his family, he betrayed his own race to protect a being of light. The son of the Damon King, prince of darkness could kill any creature, demon being with only his eyes silver eyes, which show no mercy.

"Zero!" Luka shouted his voice hoarse, his eyes saw how the portal closed in front of him, he shouted angrily and buried his sword into the ground, his body emitting a great power sweeping all the demons of darkness.

At least someone precious to him was safe ...

Zero was safe wherever he was; his little angel was free of those demons that wanted to devour him.

His Zero please allows him to live, allow him to see his beautiful face and innocent eyes once again.

Xx—

Kaname and Takuma were traveling in an armored car leading them to the house of the former hunter, Kaname wanted to see his little sister, even if she did not remember him, he wanted to see her, even it was painfully, he wished to hold her, to kiss her, to love her.

It began the first snowfall of the year, and Toko ran aimlessly in his arms a little Zero who began to awake, fearing and his tiny body trembling, he did feel him; he did not feel his guardian nearby.

"Ahhh" Everything went black, she felt both fell to the icy floor, Toko felt someone was following them, and claws dug into her leg. The girl screamed for the immense pain and tears ran down her cheeks, she was scared, she was alone and Zero…. Zero was crying, his sobs were heartbreaking, lavender eyes showed fear and loneliness.

The duras had managed to hurt the girl and now the angel was at the mercy of the devil.

What the Duras did not know was that other creatures were in the same place, watching, staring at the scene, deep crimson eyes, looking at the girl unconscious in the snow her delicious bloodshed in the snow, a total waste. But the little boy, he was alone.. What a tasty food.

"Run run Zero ..." She whispered.

"Kaname, do you smell it," Takuma with concern, the blonde boy with emerald eyes who was usually a cheerful one and Kaname´s best friend asked, his emerald eyes turned light crimson.

Blood

A strong smell of blood intoxicated the senses.

Definitely it was a vampire, possibly a E level was attacking, and were near the house of Kaien.

Yuki ...

Kaname did not think twice and climbed off the car, with a speed vampire ran to the strong smell of blood.

Zero little body began to tremble, he was scared and his mind yelled for Luka, for his savior, he wanted to see his Luka.

"Well, well, well what a lovely boy we have here " The duras moved toward the little angel.

Zero felt threatened, he turned his head where Toko lay unconscious, he could not understand clearly, what had happened, but he felt he was in danger, the creature in front of him was frightening, such a scary creature wanted to kill him.

"I'm not going to hurt, do not be shy," said the demon with an evil smile.

Zero did not think twice, he ran, his little legs trying to move quickly, but because of his small size, the distance he traveled was short. The duras meanwhile laughed and let the children run, anyway the boy was alone, and there will be anyone to save him.

"When Reiga-sama sees what I had brought for him, I will reward" The Duras said to himself and began to chase the little creature.

Dark, everything was dark, the threes, they seem to talk with each other, scary creatures moved like shadows, scary eyes. Zero was feeling tired, even if he was running he did not know where to go.

Two strangers appeared in front of him "Hey little one" One of the strangers spoke, facing the snow, his hair covering his face. The other stranger approached the little boy.

"Hwelwp mwe" The little boy whispered softly, crystal tears abandoning his eyes, his body shacking uncontrollably.

"Of course my little boy, come here close to me" The stranger extended his arm, his voice soft and gentle, his plan was working because Zero's little body began to moved, he walked slowly at the stranger who had his arms extended.

"I just want to taste your blood" The man said, he lift up his face, showing deep crimson eyes, and claws on his hands. Zero's body tensed.

Blood

Real red blood…

One of the strangers caught him and the little angel began to struggle. " Lewt mwe gwo"The little angel cried.

Such a beautiful angel, so lonely and lost, why are you afraid, if we just want to test your blood, why are you afraid if your blood will be shed for our salvation.
Such a beautiful and pure creature came to save us from this sin, your blood will save us, leading us to the light, to return our humanity.

The darkness will be vanished; you will save us… such a delicious blood, such a beautiful angel.

Little angel of silver-haired, you do not have to be afraid, I am a friend, my fangs just want to taste the elixir; please do not fear me, my beloved child.

"Damn where's that child" The Duras cursed, how he was so stupid, he did not sense the boy's aura, what if something had happened to the brat. "Damn"

In the night Kaname continued following the traces of blood for some reason the scent have gone, it was impossible for the scent of blood to disappear so quickly. Kaname could still feel the presence of two vampires, two level E.

Following his nose, Kaname followed the trail of the vampires focusing on their auras.

The snow kept falling, making it impossible for the Duras to follow his path; the demon was lost and could not return to Reiga with his hands empty. Damn that silly boy could not be so far.

Kaname appeared behind the vampires, the creatures seem to have caught their prey. "Do not fear me little one, we are not going to hurt you ... too much" One of the level E laughed, his fangs were fully extended. Kaname could sense the aura of their prey; it was a human, a little boy.

Suddenly he hear the little boys sobs and saw one of the vampires neared at the boys neck trying to bite him, Kaname could not allow that, the little boy was at least five or six, almost Yuki's age, he could see Yuki, when that vampire tried to bite her.

His aura of pureblood expanded, indicating to the vampires of lower rank he was present, in a blink of eyes Kaname launched his vampire power, to pair and they turn to ashes immediately. The small boy hit the ground, his tiny body curled, trembling, he was afraid, his sobs were heartrending.

Kaname slowly approached the child, covered him with his coat and carried him in his arms; the small boy did not stop sobbing. Kaname could realize the features of the child: his eyes were lavender, as unique and strange as his silver hair and his skin extremely white as porcelain. His cheeks flushed, and tears that did not ceased. The child's heart was beating too quickly. Kaname could feel the boy's fear. "Shh it's okay you are safe now" Kaname spoke in a soft voice, calming the boy a little.

The pureblood vampire smiled, seeing the boy calm his cry and closing his unique eyes, trying to catch some sleep, poor little thing, he might be scared and lost, and his family, maybe they were dead or somewhere else. Kaname sighed sadly and walked towards Cross house.

Xx—

Takuma sighed, he had managed to reach the Cross house, there he met the former hunter safe and small Yuki sleeping in her bed with a slight smile on her petite face, she may be dreaming something nice due the smile on her lips.

"But then nothing has happened here" Takuma asked with concern in his voice.

"Not that I see, everything has been quiet" Kaien said with a smile.

"Kaname has not arrived yet," whispered the blonde vampire, sipping her tea.

"Do not worry, Takuma, I'm sure Kaname-kun is coming our way" Kaien said with one of his smiles.

Kaname sighed, the little boy in his arms had calmed down, now the boy was sleeping peacefully in the arms of the brunette. The vampire realized the beautiful face that the child possessed; it was so surreal, so beautiful and innocent. Never in, his life he had seen a creature like that, and could not help wondering, why there was a little angel in the snow, just at the mercy of vampires.

Doubts grew when he realized that the aura of the child was not quite human, but he was not a vampire. The boy's aura radiated tranquility and purity, something that a vampire could not.

"What are you?" The brunettes asked and gently let his hand rand through those silver locks, so soft so beautiful.

Kaname kept walking, his dark wine eyes admiring the sleeping form of the boy, then he found in the road facing the house of Kaien, he hold gently the little boy in his arms, knowing he would have to explain all to the former hunter.

Inside the house was Kaien with Takuma, both felt two auras coming closer, one of them was Kaname, the other ... so unknown to Takuma.

But that aura, the essence so pure… it could not be, what was he doing in a place like that, what had happened?
Without thinking twice, Kaien rise from his chair and walked to the front door, the former hunter opened the door to find Kaname, and a small child in his arms.

"I found him alone in the snow" Kaname whispered careful not to wake the child.

"Where?" Kaien demanded

"Near the forest" Kaname replied, surprised by the suddenly question.

"Give it to me!" The man said, well more or less the former hunter ordered, Kaname raised an eyebrow not recognized the blonde actions. Nevertheless, decided to tend him the child "Zero…"

Who was this child, and what was his relationship with the hunter, Kaname did not know but he was sure Kaien knew about this child, perhaps later the brunette would question him about the boy's. What mattered now was to see if the little boy was injured.

"What happened?" Kaien asked more to himself than to Kaname, watching the face of his infant son, seeing the tears still came. "Where is him…. Where is Luka" Kaien asked once again, Kaname noticed the anger in the former hunter's voice and who was that Luka man.
