Hey everyone! I hope you all had a great summer as I did except for the summer homework. I'm glad I made myself take some time out and write the next chapter. I would have posted this earlier but I been having problems with my laptop and I lost all my files, but fear not!
Okay, enough of my rambling. Read and tell me what you think! :)

Chapter 13

"Its good to see you again Yuki." said the woman. It sounded like the Headmistress. She didn't move from her spot by the window. "I've been waiting for a while." I tried to say something though my ducked taped mouth, but all that came out was mumbles. I saw the Headmistress make a slight nod, and someone from behind me, came and ripped off the tape. It stung within seconds after he pulled it off.

"What do you want with me?" I asked harshly.

"Now, Yuki. That isn't the tone you should be speaking in to me-" I cut her off.

"I have no intension of speaking to youin a polite tone, even if you are a pure blood. The only pure blood I will ever listen to is Kaname."

"Funny you should speak of him.." She trailed off for a few moments, and then moved to her desk.

"What are you talking about!?" I asked angrily.

"That's nothing you should worry about. At least till later." Headmistress opened the glass case behind her desk and pulled out three small potion bottles. The first one was a bright red. The second one was light sky blue. And the last one was a normal green. Then the Headmistress pulled out a medium sized, empty potion bottle.

"No!" I protest. "Tell me now. What's wrong with Kaname." My voice filled with worry by the time I finished my sentence.

"Well.. If your that worried about poor Kaname. I guess I could tell you.." She trailed off again, and started to focus more on her potions in front of her. She started to the bright red potion into the medium sized one. Then the light, sky blue and the green. Once the green potion was poured in, a small puff of smoke formed and lifted into the air. I could smell the potion from where I was sitting. It smelled like burnt bacon on a Saturday morning.

"Well, don't just sit there quietly! Tell me!" I almost started to beg.

"Fine. If you insist." She gesture her hand towards someone behind me. I heard the door opened. I tried to turn myself to look, but I couldn't. A strong vampire was pulling someone in front of me. I couldn't see his face, but I knew his scent. It was Kaname's.

"Kaname!" I gasped. Tears started to form in my eyes. I wanted to let them out so badly, but I knew that crying only showed weakness in a pure blood's eye.

"Yuki!" Kaname said to me in shock. Then he started to talk to the Headmistress. "Let her go." His voice as strong and protective. "I'm the one you want, so let Yuki go."

A smirk started to form on the Headmistress's face. "You are correct, but you see. Yuki has a powers so powerful, that she doesn't know it yet. I want those powers. I want her in my army to destroy the humans and turn them into vampires." I heard her chuckle under her breath.

"No! Let her go at once!" Kaname's voice got louder and more fierce.

"I will… Wait.. Not I won't." Headmistress let out a victorious laugh. She took the mixed potion bottle and came over to me.

"Yuki." she said. Her voice was so soft and hypnotizing. "Yuki, I want you to drink this potion."

"N.. no.." I stuttered.

"Yesss." She hissed. "Drink it and Kaname won't be harmed. You will take his place instead. Drink it." I wanted to listen to her, but at the same time, I didn't want to.

"You swear not to hurt Kaname?" I asked.

"Of course. You have my word." I couldn't tell if she was telling the truth or not but I still took that chance.

"Done." I said with sadness in my voice. Knowing what I had just done. I gave my life to a pure blood other than Kaname.

"No! Yuki! Don't do it!" Kaname tried to break free from the vampire holding him back, but couldn't. My tears from before had finally spilled over as I took the bottle from her.

"I'm sorry, Kaname.." I whispered. I took a small sip of it. It tasted nasty. Almost as if it was medicine.

"That's it." Headmistress encouraged. "Go on." I look over to Kaname, who was watching in horror. Instead of a sip I took a big gulp. Then another and it was gone. Not one drop was left in the bottle.

"Excellent." I could tell Headmistress was satisfied with me. I sat quietly in my chair I was still tied to.

"Kaname can go now right?" I asked after a few moments of silence.

"Sure. Sure" I could tell she was annoyed I kept asking. "He can go." She motioned her hand to shoo Kaname away. I couldn't even look at him.

"I love you, Kaname." I said quietly as he passed by me. He didn't respond. I knew he was hurt from what I just done. I also knew that he wanted to take my place instead of me.

Yes, I know. Its short. I wish I could write more, but I didn't want to give too much away for the next coming chapters. Reviews are appreciated :) Thanks!
