I keep deleting and restarting this chapter. For some reason I don't like it and that's why this chapter has taken so long to put up online.
~Trisana
There moon low in the sky, just after sunset, is my awakening sight. It's odd for me to sleep so much but my body must have needed it considering almost twenty hours to have gone by. I sit up, rubbing out the stiffness from my neck while surveying the area. No one was around,Kaname, Ai, and Haruki were all gone. I frown to myself and prepare to go back to trekking alone. I wasn't sad for their loss, I normally travel alone and we had just met, but I had been looking forward to the change and I was growing to like the strange group of misfits.
"Ai and Haruki are out hunting and shouldn't be long." I turn around, somewhat caught off guard by the sudden voice, only to find Kaname standing in all his purebred glory. I would be stupid to deny the natural enhanced beauty of vampires in general, but something about purebreds is special as if they get an extra dose of good looking genes. Even so, I can not have this affect me, I'm better than some stupid low life possy vampire that gets sucked in by titles, power, looks, and blood.
"Thank you. So where were you off to?" I ask curious as to what he's scheming. It's in his nature as a purebred, but even so there's nothing to be preparing for except journeys to come in this works outside of colonies.
"I was taking a walk." A frown visibly forms on my face, I don't buy his story and I will let it be known.
"I need to trust you with my life on the journey you are joining me on. I understand that you just met me and you have no reason to trust me at this moment, but you chose to travel with me and I just a few rules;
1. Do not ever lie to me. If you don't want to tell me that is your prerogative, but don't lie to my face. I'm not stupid and I'm good at catching lies, even a Kuran's.
2. Never drain any of the animals around me, or on the boats because I will see them drained and it will greatly upset me.
3. I may not believe in killing my prey, but if you ever cross me I will hunt you down and kill you. I have nothing better to do for eternity." Kaname looks at me a little aghast by my rules then chuckles a little.
"You have more fire in you than I expected. I thought you were a pacifist, prey hugging hippy like you portrayed yourself to be." Brows furrowed in an odd mix of confusion and annoyance I puff my cheeks out in disdain.
"Just because I don't like to kill, doesn't mean I'm any less of a vampire than the rest of you. In fact it makes me a more developed and evolved vampire, I just have a few things I can't stand." Kaname chuckles at me again.
"Yes, I guess that is very true. You should teach me so I may join you." My brows furrow more as what I take to be mockery of me.
"Where are the kids," I demand while turning my back to him. They are out hunting somewhere.
"I'm not sure, but I'm certain they won't be much longer now." I scan the area and sigh, my excuse to try and get my mind off of Kaname's and my discussion no where in sight.
"When they get back we need to discuss our next move. I'll explain everything when they get here, but we still need to travel for at least half a night."
"I wouldn't worry," Kaname reassures me while placing his hand on my shoulder. I turn my head up towards him.
If you just weren't so purebred, Kaname, I trail off thinking to myself as I stare into those deep rustic brownish red eyes of his. He truly is a wonderful man and I've always liked him, scandals and all, but because of living as a purebred all his life he didn't know any other way of life. I want to teach him a whole different way of living that i believe he could be happier with. If he turns out to not be happy with it I will show him several colonies where he could purebred them all.
"Is something wrong," Kaname in an attempt to pull my attention back from my thoughts.
"Mhm, oh no nothing is wrong I was just thinking is all."
"What about if you don't mind me asking?" I bite my lower lip in thought.
"It's something I wish to not disclose at the moment." With that said I move away from him and towards the new sound of bushes moving.
"How was the hunt," I ask the kids as they come through the bushes.
"It was quite well, thank you," Ai replies smiling at me and Haruki nods.
"I'd like to start traveling if that is fine with all of you." The group nods their heads, indicated that they were ready, so I take off in the direction of the ocean. It was time to leave what was once England.
AN: Though there is no mention of the specific location as to where they are in the world I'm placing them in England do to the western style and architecture in the manga.
