Chapter 4
I changed the writing style to first person. This also might be my longest chapter yet.
~Rido's Point of View~
So far today had been a really good day. My precious niece was turned back into a purblood, ripe for me to eat and I was back in my own body. Right after all of the Level-E's that I turned over the years found me in the Moon Dorm room that I was in. Every other vampire was out so no one stopped them from entering.
Right away I ordered some of them to look for some humans for me to eat while others stayed behind so I could eat them. It had been ten years since I've had a full meal so I was starved. (1) Yes I would eat while I possessed someone but once I leave the blood would stay in that body. Also, my body was in a coffin of blood as I healed, but that was to help me heal. I sometimes would eat but only a very little so that my body wouldn't be weak when it completely healed. (2)
I was very glade when my Level-E slaves brought me my first human snack. Apparently Cross and those Night Class vampires weren't so good at protecting the humans as they thought they were. I then laughed when two more human kids were brought to me. Cross's attempts really were pathetic. I had three of his little students in my grasp.
I only ordered my slaves to put the humans in the corner. I was going to save them for last since their blood tasted a lot better then the X-humans around me. I have heard of human children always eating the food they like first in a meal before the food they don't. I rather do it the other way since it get rid of the bland taste of X-humans.
The red head human's blood was so delicious and she was the first human blood donor in so many years; Ichiru didn't count since I only licked what was on my hand after I stabbed him. I couldn't help but suck her practically dry. I only left a tiny bit in her since I got detracted as Rokuro came in with another human girl. He was one of the humans I turned before Kaname, my supposed nephew, ruined my precious body.
I had smirked at the new human when I recognized her scent. It was similar to the Miyako vampire hunter I encountered fifteen years ago. I knew this girl had to be Ayama Miyako, the daughter of Taro Miyako's brother, who I heard refused to become a hunter himself. (3) I remembered that the vampire hunter had said something about his niece before I was about to kill him. Before I could kill the hunter, back up came and I fled, the thought of the hunter's niece in my mind. By the way he described her she sounded like she'd make a really good snack.
Now I had the little girl in my grasp and she smelled delicious. I was nearly shaking in temptation to sink my fangs into her pretty little neck. Though I was going to wait a little while until I ate her. I was actually having a little fun watching the human girl struggle. She was quiet amusing really. She was the only human to look at me with such emotion that wasn't fear. I guess this is how Shizuka felt when she attacked the Kiryu family. Ichiru told me about Shizuka while I possessed my son's body. It's such a pity he betrayed me. The boy would have made a good servant.
I narrowed my eyes over at the young Miyako. She was tied with her wrists behind her back and around her ankles to stop her kicking. The Level-Es also gagged her so they wouldn't have to hear her swear anymore. I was a little disappointed since I was interested with seeing what she was going to say next. Although the screaming was a little painful on the ears so I didn't blame them. The vampire I was feeding on died so another then took it's place.
~Ayama's Point of View~
I struggled against the rope that tied my wrists behind my back. My legs were also tired along with my wrists, making it extremely hard for me to stand up. One vampire even put a rag over my mouth to stop my shouting, and swearing, at their vampire leader that killed my best friend. Although, it had taken three of the vampires to hold me down as I was tied up.
Since I was from a vampire hunter family I had hunter blood in me, making me stronger then most humans. I was just not a hunter since my father didn't believe in murder so he refused to become a hunter. Still, my uncle still trained me in the way of recognizing a vampire and how to fight one off. Although, since I too didn't feel right about murder, I refused to use a weapon. I now regretted that but I still wasn't going to go down without a fight.
"You're brave yet stupid. You do know he's going to kill all of us, right? It doesn't matter what you try to do." The blond girl I knew as Akiko Tamiko said. 'Like I give a shit.' I thought as I rolled my eyes before I looked over at Sora Mitsuo. (4) Akiko saw that I was looking at him and she hugged her legs and frowned. "He tried to save Atsuko. One of the vampires got mad and pushed him so hard he hit the wall and became unconscious." She said and I saw her shake lightly.
She was scared and I didn't blame her. Up until now, vampires for her only existed in books. movies and legends. They weren't so post to be real for humans like Akiko in real life. But unfortunately they were and she, along with Sora and Atsuko, who was dead now, found out and the bad way I might add. If only she and the others listened to the Headmaster they would be safe, Atsuko would still be alive and I wouldn't be here right now. Fate had a really weird way of working.
I looked over at the vampire, who I finally realized was a purblood, to see him looking at me. I narrowed my eyes into a glare at him. 'What the hell are you looking at?' I thought snarled to him. I couldn't speak because of the gag so I thought to him. Purbloods were so post to have many powers so it'd surprise me if this Rido Kuran couldn't read minds.
As if to answer me, his one blue eye changed to match his red one but they both seemed to glow a little. I narrowed my eyes even more and struggled against the ropes even harder. 'Not in your life time, Vampire.' I snarled once again. I didn't give a crap that this vampire was one of the rare purbloods, I was not going to show him any respect.
"You should really learn to respect your higher superiors." The purblood mumbled, licking his lips after the X-human vampire he was drinking from died. 'Screw you, I'll never show you any respect.' I thought as I watched his one eye go back it's blue color and his red eye stopped glowing. I saw a soft smile come on the purblood's lips as he stopped another vampire from offering herself to him. "We'll see about that." I barely heard him say in a silky whisper.
I watched as Rido then got off the divan as a rumbling then came from above us. "Ah, it looks like the little war has found us. Well, it's about time I joined it anyways and find my niece." The purblood said, grinning up at the ceiling before turning back to look at the X-human vampires that surrounded us humans. "Take them back to my house so I can have them for later. Oh, and if there is the small chance that I don't come in a few hours, feel free to eat them yourselves." The purblood said before a huge hole appeared in the ceiling.
Before I could look up to see who, or what, made the hole, I was grabbed by one of the vampires, once again placed over his shoulder. The vampire that held me then jumped out the window, alone with the vampires that held Akiko and Sora. I could see where we were going since I this time I was facing the way we were leaving and the vampire was running too fast; every thing was blurry. So I could only guess where we were going and when we would get there.(5)
(1) In Vol 7 of Vampire Knight Kaname talks to Shiki/Rido about it being a little over ten years since he attacked his family
(2) I made that up, but it still makes a little sense to me.
(3) Taro means:"great son," or "eldest son."
(4) Akiko Tamiko stands for:sparkling child and child of the people. Sora Mitsuo means: Shy and Shining man
(5) OK, yes, she knows that she is going to Rido's home but what I meant was...... I actually don't know ow to explain it. Sorry
(Other) My mistake. I'll make Rido make Ayama is pet in the next chapter, or else this one will end up too long
