Chapter III
.
Yuuki woke up to the pale moonlight shining through the cracks of the window. It looked about early evening judging by how it wasn't that dark yet, the sky still had light blue tints here and there.
Stretching her limbs, Yuuki looked around through bleary eyes. Somehow she ended up in what seemed to be a thoroughly run-down mansion. She had no recollection of what happened last night and how she got there.
Getting up from the ripped mattress, she stretched yet again and went to walk about. Going for something she called a 'Mini Adventure'.
As she walked out of the room she was in, she encountered a long hallway filled with debris lying around the place.
The hallways were filled with paintings of what seemed to be landscapes and portraits. Though they were already completely torn. What once was exquisite wood lined it from top to bottom. She had a guess that this was once a home of a noble.
Going deeper into the mansion, she suddenly stiffened. She could smell someone else's scent in the manor. Using her vampiric ability, she hid her presence and with inhuman agility, glided gracefully through the hallway towards the unknown person.
As she neared, and the person's scent grew stronger, and as more hit her sensitive nose she suddenly felt a wave of recognition go through her. Memories of the night before flooded through her mind and she recognized the aroma.
It was Kaname.
Feeling her tense muscles relax, she took a deep breath and walked towards the room in which Kaname occupied.
The door to the room looked like it had been through war and back. It was in such a mangled state that Yuuki considered for a brief moment that maybe it wasn't a door but something else.
Shaking her thoughts, she lightly tapped it to inform Kaname of her entrance. Suddenly, the door crumbled to the ground. Yuuki stared at the pile of debris by her feet in shock.
Kaname glanced to the side from the worn book in his hands at the ruckus the girl was making, raising a brow slightly at the rubble that was once a magnificent door.
He wasn't shocked by her sudden appearance, in fact he knew long before that she was coming towards him. Her presence alone filled the entirety of the place. It was like she was luring everything towards her by letting them know of her location. He sighed. She was like a fire to a swarm of flies.
She was unique, unlike any other vampire he has encountered before.
The usual vampire would be arrogant and self-centered. Demanding attention all of the time and constantly looked down on others. They were the ones Kaname despised. But, upon their first meeting, something deep inside him whispered that she was different from the others. That part of him was indeed correct as the said girl continued to stare at the rubble with unconcealed shock.
He watched with hidden interest as she squatted down on the ground and picked up a piece of the door. The moment she held it up to her face, it crumbled into dust. Her sigh of resignation echoed throughout the room.
"Yuuki," Kaname's baritone voice called to her, making her snap her head to his direction, "What are you doing?"
Slowly standing up, she brushed her hands on her skirt briefly before answering. "Well I sensed that you were here so I came to join you, that is if you don't mind?"
She looked at him under her thick lashes with a gentle smile, still standing over the rubble.
Kaname felt his heart skip a beat at her smile and found it quiet curious. He later then brushed it off as his imagination. "Of course, you're welcome to." And with that he went back to reading his book.
She beamed and entered the spacious room. It was a library by the looks of it. Books ranging from thin to thick lined the walls in shelves. They were in quiet a good condition in comparison to the rest of the mansion. She looked through the faded titles but found none that caught her interest.
Walking towards Kaname, she tried to take a peak at what he was reading so intently.
"What's that?" She asked.
He looked down at her curious face and couldn't help but let a ghost of a smile appear. She was quite adorable.
"It's a book about vampires." He said simply before ushering her to a somewhat ruined couch and sat on it. He patted beside him and she sat down with him.
"What does it say about our oh-so-glorious kind?" She giggled. A ringing of bells is what reminded Kaname when she did.
"Well, it seems there is a hierarchy amongst our kind." He said, flipping through a couple worn pages delicately.
"Oh?" Yuuki was now very interested.
To know there was some sort of hierarchy between vampires was fascinating. She figured that everybody just did his or her own thing. However, she also figured that with how arrogant her kind were, there had to be some vampires that were made to keep others in line.
"Of course as we all know, there are the failed vampires." Kaname started, "They call them Level E's, the lowest of all low, the scummiest of scum. Then there are the Level D's, these are the ex-humans that slowly deteriorates to a Level E. The common vampires are called the Level C's. They are mostly servants amongst the Level B's and A's."
Yuuki shifted some more on the uncomfortable couch so she was touching Kaname. This did not go unnoticed by him. His skin tingled where their bodies touched although there were some clothing in between them.
"What are the Level B's and A's?" She asked, looking up at his now rigid posture but not noticing it.
Inaudibly swallowing the growing lump in his throat, Kaname explained, "Level B's are what they called noble vampires. They descended from the Level A's which are what they call Purebloods."
Yuuki shifted a little more so half of her body was now in front of his, trying to read the book. "Purebloods? I think I've heard that somewhere before."
Kaname's back was now ramrod straight. He could feel his cheeks heating up at their close proximity. His heart was beating so fast he was sure she could hear it. Am I sick? Why am I feeling like this?
Yuuki read the passage on the book, squinting her eyes through the ruined writing. "It says here that Pureblood's are the only ones who can make humans into vampires. It also says that if the bitten human didn't drink the blood of the pureblood who turned him, he would become a Level E."
Scrunching up her eyebrows, she stuck her bottom lip out trying to think very hard why this sounded so familiar to her. Then it all clicked.
She turned her head towards Kaname so fast he was worried she got whiplash. "I'm a pureblood!"
He blinked at her sudden outburst. "How'd you come up with that conclusion?"
She removed herself in front of him and he found that he suddenly missed her warmth.
"Well, remember when I jumped on you telling you to drink my blood so that you won't turn into a failed vampire?" She said waiting for him to nod in remembrance before she continued, "The reason why I did that was because way before I met you, I drank from humans during my waves of hunger. It wasn't in my intention to bite them; I just really needed to sate my thirst. Then one after the other, they started turning insane. They killed other humans without conscience and that scared me. So after that incident, I vowed never to drink from a human again. However, my hunger came again and I tried hard to keep it down. A human was walking through the woods near where I was and I lost all conscious thought. I became aware of my surroundings when I was latched onto his neck and feeding off him like there was no tomorrow. I quickly let go of him and in my panicked state; I slit my wrist and made him drink my blood. I didn't know what I was doing then. I readied myself for an attack from him that I was sure would come, but it didn't. He woke up later on seemingly normal with two fangs under his upper lip vowing to be my servant for all of eternity. I was confused at first but then I did it the second and last time and it worked. I turned them into vampires without them failing. Then I met you."
Kaname was lost in thought. He placed his thumb and his forefinger underneath his chin. "Sounds valid enough."
She looked at him quickly with shining eyes, "What about you Kaname? What level vampire are you?"
Crossing his legs and resting his elbow on the armrest, he smirked at Yuuki. "I'm something far above the Level A vampire."
Yuuki blinked in confusion, "But there's nothing above Level A."
He released a deep chuckle, "Oh but there is."
"Then what is it?" she asked, slightly irritated that he was dragging this on.
He paused before he replied, looking at her angelic face framed by dark brown locks. She looked so adorable. Releasing a small sigh he finally answered her, "An Ancestor."
