Okay, sorry I haven't been updating on any of my stories recently. With school and constant pressure on my back, I've barely had time to write. Lucky for you, I have actually been saving this fic for a while before publishing, so I am a few chapters into it. Anyways, quick recap: Nathan Kisuki, now Nathan Kisuki Cross, has just been adopted by the headmaster of Cross academy. Yuki (I know that in some versions her name is spelled Yuuki, but it was Yuki in the version I was reading) and Zero have just discovered that he was bitten by a vampire, but don't know if he was bitten by a pure blood or something else. I do not own Vampire Knight, R&R, Enjoy.
Ch. 2: New Student
(Zero Kiryu)
The boy, Nathan, was now adopted by the Headmaster. Yuki now had an older brother. It had been a few days since the headmaster adopted him, and we were back in class. He attended classes here and he did exceptionally well. He explained, using a pen and some paper, that at his previous school, he was known as "The Walking Encyclopedia". He mainly excelled at math and science, but also did fairly well in his other classes. He couldn't really talk, but could write down what he wanted to say. The school nurse said his vocal chords where a bit damaged, but they should heal over time. He also seemed to show his expressions through odd growls and grunts. I don't really know how to explain it, but it seems he uses patterns and tones. Yuki has been hanging around him, I guess to make a good impression on him. She got through once, but it faded when he saw the Night Class for the first time. When he saw them, he made an angry face and would make a low growl, like he knew they were vampires. Aido, one of the Night Class, saw him and pointed him out to Kaname, the president of the Night Class. He looked over, but didn't react. Once they had gone, Nathan went back to his dorm room. He had one all to himself, so I considered him lucky. He was a good kid, but those bite marks made me feel uneasy. Was he just another victim, or would he turn into one of them. I thought to myself only time will tell.
(Nathan Kisuki Cross)
I was dreaming about something. I couldn't really make it out, but I knew where I was. I was on a plane with my parents, and we were heading to our vacation home. Father pointed out my window and I looked out. I couldn't see it, but I still stared in amazement at something.
Then a time skip occurred in my dream. We had just arrived in the city from our country home, and it was beginning to snow. We were on our way back, when we got hit by something. We were knocked off the road and we drove into a snowbank. I was bleeding a little, but alive. My parents were also alive, but then something happened. The driver side door opened and Dad was pulled out. I heard the sounds of a fight and was telling Dad to beat him up and win. My back was turned and I didn't see Mom get pulled out. My door opened and was pulled clean off its hinges. I got thrown out of the car, and landed in the snow. I looked up and saw three men. Two were fighting my parents, one was walking towards me. I tried to run to my Dad, but the man sped in front of me. I quickly turned and ran to Mom, but he jumped right in front of me. I heard a cry of pain from behind me. I turned to see the one guy get pummeled into the snow. Dad ran over to Mom and they both took out the other guy. They started to run over to me. I saw the two guys get back up and I yelled for them to look out.
But it was too late.
I saw them rush over to my Dad and snap his neck. He was dead. Mom turned around to face them, but not before saying, "Run, Nathan! RUN!" And the man who kept blocking my path drove his hand straight through her chest. I gasped in horror, as she fell to the ground. The men began to devour them. Then, I saw they weren't devouring them. They were licking up or sucking out my parent's blood. Then, I turned and ran. I heard one of them start to go after me, but the third man stopped him. I knew why. They knew I wouldn't survive out in the snow.
But somehow, I did survive. I made it to the country house and packed my stuff. I hitch-hiked my way to the city. A few days later, I was outside the academy.
The dream ended as I was woken up by Yuki. She kept shaking me, as if she didn't know if I was awake or not. I opened my eyes fully and made a small grunt, confirming I was awake. She told me since it was a free day today, so she would try to help me speak correctly. She sat down and tried to get me to mouth and sound out words with her. I had a bit of a hard time, as my vocal cords were still healing. We practiced for about half an hour and decided to stop. I could sound out some basic words and tried to make a sentence. "He-llo Yu-ki, how are you?"
She replied and said I was doing great. I smiled and rubbed the back of my neck. I felt something on the side, and moved my hand closer. It was some sort of bandage. I tried to feel around, see if I could identify what kind of wound it was. I pressed on one spot and felt a hole. I felt around and found three more. They were not in a random pattern, but in a sort of square pattern. Like a bite mark. Yuki got my attention, and I looked at her.
I shook my head and said, or at least tried to, "I go-ing out. Need, fresh air." I turned for the door and went outside, grabbing my favorite hat from my bag. It was sunny out, and the other Day Class students were socializing. I just kept to myself, hiding in the shadows. I didn't talk to anyone, but they sometimes looked over at me. Some of the girls waved over at me, and sometimes I would wave back. I walked around campus and tried to familiarize myself with the locations of classes. I heard a shout and went over to the sound. I saw two Day Class students, both guys. One was holding the other up. From what I could hear, the bigger guy was telling the other kid to give him something. I doubted it was lunch money, and I decided to end it.
(Yuki Cross)
Nathan said, with a little bit of difficulty I'll admit, that he was going outside for fresh air. I decided to get some air too. I didn't follow him, but instead went the other direction. I was trying to find Zero. I eventually found him under a tree, just sitting there. I woke him up and asked if I could sit next to him. At that moment, we heard someone shout. We ran over to where we heard the noise, and saw two Day Class students fighting, one being held up by the other.
We were about to stop them when we heard someone shout, "HEY!" We looked over and saw Nathan walking over to them. The student let go of the other kid, who ran off. He walked up to Nathan, and he was bigger by only an inch at most.
"What did you say?" Nathan didn't respond with words, but instead with a growl. The kid backed up in mock fear.
"Oh no!" he said. "Fido's going to bite me!" He then broke out laughing, which only made Nathan angrier. I tried to walk over to him, but Zero stopped me. I guess he wanted to see how it would work out. I didn't want to admit it, but so did I.
"Easy way, or hard way," Nathan said. "Your choice." The guy just laughed and used more mock fear. Nathan readjusted his hat. I thought I heard him give a small laugh, but I did see him smile.
"Hard way it is," He said, popping his knuckles. The student made a punch, but Nathan dodged it and moved behind him. He moved as if time was standing still. The student looked around, trying to find him.
"Behind you." I heard Nathan say. The kid turned and he saw Nathan facing the other way. He saw his chance and punched his back. I thought Nathan would be sent flying, but he didn't even budge. The other student looked confused. He punched him a few more times. He stopped, surprised Nathan hadn't even moved an inch forward.
Nathan turned and said, "You're done already?" It seemed his vocal cords had finally healed and he was speaking just fine. "I was actually enjoying the massage you were giving me." The student made one last punch, but it Nathan caught it mid-swing. The student gave a yelp of surprise. Nathan moved their hands downward, leaned in close and whispered something to him. The student nodded his head frantically and ran off when Nathan let go of his hand. Nathan looked around and saw everyone was staring at him. He spoke up and said, "Carry on."
He walked off and moved past us.
Zero grabbed his arm and said, "What did you do to him."
"Nothing," he replied. "I just said never bully anyone again or risk getting a black eye." He shoved his arm out of Zero's grip, which is actually very hard to do, and walked ahead.
Okay, again I think it's a little shaky. Also, before anyone points out, I know that the "Behind you", and forward part was an animation for the Big Bang Kamehameha in one of the Dragon Ball games, but it was the only way I knew how to actually play out the fight scene (I do not own the animations from the DBZ games either). So, now Nathan can talk properly, and he put a bully's career into the garbage. Review, and wait for the next chapter. Oh yeah, if I don't get, say, 5-10 reviews, I won't update. They also have to be real ones, not random junk like this:

So REAL reviews, or no update.
