Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Knight… What a sad thought.
A/N: So, as you know, Zero is now awake and kicking. However, do not think this means that Kagami is gone by any means. He will still show up every now and then. Sorry this took so long, I have interviews the past two days so I haven't had much time to concentrate on any of my stories. Anyway, on to the chapter! Please enjoy!
Fences Not Easily Mended
"That's enough Zero," a calm voice came from the door.
Zero glanced to the side to see Kaname leaning against the door jam, his rosewood eyes calm. Those eyes traveled up and down his body, making Kagami's words flutter through his mind: I doubt you have to worry about him looking you in the face… He'll probably be looking elsewhere. Forcing down the urge to blush, he returned his attention to the noble in his grasp, entirely content to ignore the pureblood at the door.
Tightening his grip, his voice was deathly calm, "Why were you so close to me?"
"N-N-Nothing," Aido wheezed, struggling to breathe.
"You were in my face vampire, and I want to know why!" Zero snarled, tightening his grip even more as anger clouded his mind.
Aido's mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water. The grip on his throat was too tight, he couldn't breathe. His vision was beginning to blur from lack of oxygen. It was ironic, he thought, thinking he was going to die by Kiryu's hand when the hunter had almost died by his.
"Zero," Kaname spoke from behind him, "Let go of Aido."
Zero's shoulders trembled as he fought against the commanding tone from behind him. Kagami had warned him that he would feel compelled to follow the pureblood's order, but he hadn't paid much mind to it. Clearing his mind, he forced himself to focus on Aido, whose lips were turning blue, and his own anger so as to block out the need to obey.
Another snarl ripped from Zero as he felt a hand on his shoulder. Throwing his arm back, he was slightly shocked that it actually connected with flesh with a crack. Two other snarls sounded in the room, no doubt from Kain and Ruka. Looking back he saw Kaname kneeling on the floor with a hand held against the angry red mark on his cheek, eyes slightly wide in surprise. As the other two started toward the hunter, a guttural growl sounded in the room. If Zero had been in his right mind he would have been shocked that the sound came from him.
Zero's vision narrowed as he focused back on Aido, seeing the fearful blue eyes, he smirked. Inhaling deeply, the anger and fear in the air was intoxicating. He felt he could be satiated on that smell alone for the rest of his life. Why had he denied himself this for so long? It felt as though he were suddenly free from all the chains that had bound him for the past four years.
"Calm down Zero," a voice floated across his conscious.
Ignoring the voice, Zero leaned forward, burying his face in the side of Aido's neck. His tongue peaked out to run teasingly along the tantalizing flesh before him. A purr of contentment rumbled in his chest, tasting sweat that held the tantalizing taste of fear. His eyes nearly rolled back in his head.
"You're losing control, stop," the voice warned him.
The powerful presence behind him had him releasing Aido to catch the arm approaching him. Spinning, he quickly pinned the person beside the collapsed noble, arm across their throat. Calm rosewood eyes stared straight into enraged crimson. Kaname Kuran was staring into a face that spoke of death and pain.
"Pureblood," Zero growled, putting more pressure on his arm.
Calm eyes flicked to the side, making Zero remember that there were more people still in the room. These people had hurt him, had tortured him, and had humiliated him. It was unforgivable. Gritting his teeth, a warning growl rumbled through him as he felt them step closer.
"Stay back," Kaname ordered before his eyes moved back to Zero's, "Zero?"
Zero's eyes flashed briefly as he purred, "Kaname."
"Calm down Zero, no one here means you any harm," Kaname stated, trying to bring the hunter back to his senses.
Zero didn't listen to the pureblood, his senses instead tuned to the people behind him. He could still here them shuffling about, trying to edge closer. Moving his arm, he gripped Kaname around the throat.
"One more move and I'll tear his throat out," he warned with a snarl.
"Zero!" the voice shouted in his head.
His eyes suddenly widened, flashing between crimson and lilac. Something was happening, pulling away his strength. Gasping, he collapsed to the floor, releasing his hold on the pureblood. He kneeled, one hand supporting his weight as the other grasped the fabric over his heart. His eyes turned lilac, a crimson ring surrounding the iris, as he felt his heart stutter in his chest.
Suddenly, he was on his back, gasping for breath as he stared at incensed brown eyes that were tinted crimson. Ruka pinned him to the hardwood floors of Kaname's suite, a knee firmly planted on his chest. Clenching his eyes, he hissed in pain. His chest felt on fire, but it was different that the pain of bloodlust. Instead, it felt as though his heart were slowing. Gasping, he struggled to move but found he didn't have the strength.
"Zero-chan!" a panicked voice shouted at him.
"K-K-Kags," Zero stuttered, his vision blurring.
He saw the pleased smirk take over Ruka's face as his heart stuttered once again. He vaguely recalled that his heart had stopped once before, apparently it wasn't up to his exertion upon awakening. His lilac eyes turned glassy as he finally allowed his last grip on consciousness to fade.
Kaname stared in shock at the scene before him. He hadn't predicted the events that had just transpired; it had slowed his reaction time as his mind struggled to get up to speed. Zero was positively furious when he had awoken and all hell had broken loose. His eyes widened as he heard Zero's heart stutter and stop again. Just as he was about to move, things were taken out of his hands.
Ruka suddenly went flying across the room, smashing into the wall like a rag doll. Kain started forward, wanting to help the others in the room but he was swiftly flipped over the hunter's shoulder, pinned to the floor with a hand wrapped tightly around his throat. As he looked up, his copper eyes widened in shock; there was no way that the person before him was Zero Kiryu.
Dark crimson eyes glared down at him, the black pupils barely visible in the sea of red. His face was pulled back into an animalistic snarl, baring his fangs threateningly. The aura was all wrong, too oppressive, for the hunter.
"I wouldn't advise any of you try that again," a deep voice that definitely didn't belong to Zero warned.
"K-Kiryu?" Kain asked.
A grin spread along Zero's lips, "You could say that."
A recovered Aido and Ruka approached the two on the floor, trying to be stealthy. Zero's head whipped up, silver hair flying, as he snarled at them. They both took an involuntary step back, not used to see the raw rage and aggression coming from the man before them. Even Kaname paused at seeing that, however it soon passed as he too took a step forward with the others.
"Keep back Kuran-sama," Zero warned, his eyes flashing.
Everyone stared at him as though he had lost his mind. It was highly irritating; no wonder Zero was so pissed off all the time. He had all this shit to deal with. Sighing inwardly, he cursed himself as he realized he had let the figurative cat out of the bag. But he had no choice, even now Zero's heart was barely beating, he had done it out of self-preservation.
"Who are you?" Kaname asked curiously as he stepped back, motioning for the others to do the same.
"Zero Kiryu, vampire hunter yet vampire, Day Class student, senior, 18 years old," Zero smirked, rattling off facts.
"Y-You're not K-Kiryu," Kain muttered from beneath him.
Frowning once more, he tightened his grip, "Who gave you permission to speak?"
"I will ask once more, who are you?" Kaname asked impatiently.
Zero grit his teeth, hearing the slight command in the question. He was glad for his stubbornness or he would have spilled the beans. He ignored it for the time being, wanting answers of his own.
"First, I want to know why Ice-boy was so close to my-me," Zero said.
"Aido?" Kaname questioned softly.
Aido huffed before looking to the side to hide his blush, "He smells different."
Understanding dawned in both Zero and Kaname's eyes, of course Zero smelled different. He was well on his transition to a noble and that fact would be obvious through his smell. Every level of vampire smelled different, slightly more intoxicating, with purebloods being at the top.
"Go around smelling people in their sleep often?" Zero leered at the blushing noble.
"What! No!" Aido protested, his blush deepening.
Then Zero's face turned serious once more, "Get out."
"Don't order us around like dogs!" Ruka shouted, her eyes furious.
Zero glared, crimson eyes smoldering, "I said get out."
"You!" Ruka snarled, stepping forward.
"All of you, leave now," Kaname ordered.
"But Kaname-sama!" Aido protested.
Kaname's eyes narrowed, "Do not question me. I will deal with all of you later. Now get out."
Zero smirked as he let go of Kain's throat, his smirk widening as he noticed the cautious look the other gave him. Jerking his head, he motioned to the door, signaling he wouldn't do anything else to him. Soon enough all the other nobles were out the door, and he sighed softly as he felt their presence fade for his senses.
Kaname leaned against the wall as he asked, "So are you going to tell me who you are and why you look like Zero?"
Chuckling softly, Zero went to stand but crouched back down with a hiss, clenching his hand over his heart. Even after all the blood and sleep he had had over the past few days, his body was still lagging. He felt his heart stutter once more as he begged it not to stop completely.
Suddenly Kaname was there, a hand on his shoulder, eyes concerned, "Are you alright?"
"No," Zero growled, the corners of his eyes pinching in pain.
"What's wrong?" the pureblood asked.
"His heart hasn't fully recovered yet," Zero muttered, wincing as he realized his slip.
"His?" Kaname questioned, confused once more.
He sighed, he needed help now, "Look, we'll answer all the questions you want later, right now, if you don't help us, you're not going to get any answers at all."
Kaname nodded his understanding as he popped the first few buttons on his shirt, showing off his graceful neck. The tilting of his head was all the invitation that Zero needed. Moving forward, he swiftly sank his aroused fangs into the neck before him. He groaned, the deliciously spicy tang bubbling across his taste buds; it was truly the first time he had tasted it. He sighed through his nose as he felt his heartbeat begin to even out, becoming strong once more.
"Kags?" the confused voice touched his mind.
He nearly cried in relief at the sound of that voice. It had gotten pretty hairy there for a few moments, his host's voice had gotten so weak that he was afraid that he was going to lose him forever. Closing his eyes, he allowed his mind to connect with Zero's.
"How are you feeling?" Kagami asked.
"Why am I back here?" Zero asked in confusion.
"I had to come out so I sent you there. Your heart almost stopped again, I tried to tell you not to over exert yourself but you didn't listen. I guess your heart couldn't take the strain so soon after everything," he explained.
"Let me out?" Zero asked softly.
Kagami sent a smile to his host, "I'm feeding on Kuran-sama at the moment. He has a lot of questions for you."
Shock registered in their mind, "The others?"
"They were ordered out after a being thrown around a bit," Kagami reassured his host.
"What should I tell him?" Zero questioned softly once more.
"It's up to you Zero-chan," he told his other half.
"He's going to think I'm crazy… He won't believe me," Zero whispered.
"Don't doubt him so quickly; Kuran-sama is a smart pureblood. He will at least put faith in the fact that you believe it. He won't dismiss you right off the bat," Kagami consoled.
"Alright… I'll trust you," Zero said, a small smile registering.
Kagami sent a smile back, "Are you ready to come back?"
"Yes," Zero responded.
Kagami sent another smile that was accompanied by a stern warning, "Alright, but take it easy. You need to remember that you are not a hundred percent right now. No fighting or screaming unless you can help it… At least for a few days."
"Yes mom," the sarcastic reply came.
Kagami chuckled as he let his conscious drift back into the recesses of Zero's mind, "Have fun Zero-chan."
Bleary lilac eyes opened slowly, the realization that he was still attached to Kaname's neck sinking in. Taking a few moments to listen to his heart, he realized it was beating normally, which was a relief. Pulling his fangs out of the pureblood's neck, he licked them before cleaning up the blood that he had managed to spill. Leaning back, he allowed himself to fall to the floor, gasping for air.
"Better?" Kaname asked as he raised a hand to his neck.
Zero rolled his eyes over to Kaname before nodding, "I'm good… Thank you."
Kaname's eyes widened slightly, not used to being thanked, "You're welcome… Kiryu?"
He heard the question in the pureblood's voice, "Yeah."
The pureblood's eyes narrowed slightly, staring deep into Zero's eyes. It was an occurrence he had never seen before. If one didn't look closely, they would surely miss it. While Zero's eyes were their normal lilac, there was a small ring of red around the pupil as small streaks stretched out across the rest of his eyes.
"What?" Zero huffed, shifting nervously at Kaname's penetrating stare.
Kaname blinked, scenting the nervousness in the air, "Forgive me, I was just taking note of your eyes… They've changed."
Zero stared at him in alarm, "Changed how?"
"Nothing much, there is just some red in your eyes now that doesn't seem to be fading; just around the pupil and miniscule streaks throughout your iris," Kaname placated the hunter.
Zero groaned, "So now I'm even more of a freak?"
Kaname chuckled, "No Kiryu, it's not noticeable unless you really look."
Zero frowned at the use of his last name. He had to wonder if Kaname was still mad at him for the way he acted before. He supposed the pureblood didn't know exactly what happened to cause him to act in such a way.
"Why are you frowning?" Kaname inquired curiously.
Zero glanced to the side, "No reason…" Then he changed the subject, "I guess you have some questions."
"They can wait until you are fully recovered," Kaname stated.
Zero shrugged, "No time like the present, ask away… Just don't try to lock me up afterwards."
Kaname sighed before standing, looking down at the boy beneath him, "Wouldn't it be more comfortable to sit while talking?"
Zero grunted before heaving himself off the floor. Once he was on his feet, he stumbled slightly, bringing his hand up to his face as he wobbled unsteadily. Kaname went to help the hunter but Zero had already begun to walk toward the coach. The pureblood chuckled under his breath at the hunter's stubbornness.
Zero flopped long-ways on the couch, draping himself over the entirety of it, "So… ask."
After Kaname situated himself on the opposite couch, he came up blank, "I don't know where to start Kiryu."
Again Zero frowned, his last named sounded so distant when spoken by the pureblood. It seemed like he was trying to put up a wall between them. For some reason, Zero hated that.
"Then tell him," Kagami prompted.
"I… I can't," Zero protested.
"Why?" Kagami prodded.
"Forward much?" Zero replied sarcastically.
Kagami grinned, "Fine… Be stubborn."
"You can call me Zero," Zero was horrified as his mouth moved on its own.
Kaname blinked at Zero, "What was that?"
Zero huffed, silently cursing the hysterically laughing voice in his head, "Nothing."
"Your eyes changed again," Kaname pointed out.
"Look, forget it. Just ask you questions," Zero huffed, fighting to keep the blush down.
Kaname frowned at the tone, but consented none the less, "How are you feeling?"
Zero frowned also as he contemplated the question, "I'm alright… I feel like I have too much energy that I don't know what to do with. My… chest still feels slightly uncomfortable… But other than that I'm fine. Next."
"What happened a few moments ago, with Ruka and Kain?" Kaname asked the question that was taunting his mind.
Zero's frown deepened, nothing like getting to the point, "It's… crazy."
"Has that ever stopped you before?" Kaname taunted lightly.
Zero chuckled at that, "I suppose you're right… I don't know how to explain it really… I guess… I have a question for you: What do you think of your inner beast?"
Kaname taped his chin as he thought about it, "We are taught that it is the manifestation of our inner desires, our baser instincts. Every vampire has one, even ex-humans. That's all we are taught."
Zero sighed as he stared in the pureblood's eyes, hoping his honesty was shown, "What would you do if… I told you that that's not entirely true?"
Kaname stared right back, dead serious, "I would listen and make a decision based upon your explanation."
Zero pinched the bridge of his nose, "Vampires' inner beasts are like… repressed instincts. Even when born with them, vampires also have a human conscious, though they try not to show it. The human psyche cannot deal with the… darker instincts of a vampire. This causes a… break in the mind… Shit, I don't know how to be tactful about this!"
Kaname's interest was piqued, "Then be blunt Kiryu."
"Stop calling me that damn it!" Zero shouted suddenly before slapping a hand over his mouth.
"Then what should I call you?" Kaname asked.
Zero groaned, "Forget it, it's nothing… Anyway… Back to what we were talking about. Inner beasts… are not just instincts… You could classify them as people. They have their own thoughts, feelings, and whatnot. They just never show themselves because no one has ever tried to look for them."
Kaname stared at Zero with a deadpan expression, "You're right, that does sound crazy."
A smirk that was definitely not Zero's crossed the hunter's face as his eyes flickered crimson again, "Don't knock it til ya try it."
"Why do your eyes change like that and why do they have flecks of crimson in them even if you are not hungry?" Kaname questioned.
Zero sighed as his eyes once more turned crimson flecked lilac, "Alright, I'll tell you BUT no interrupting and no calling me crazy. Got it?" When he saw Kaname nod he continued, "Well… When I woke up, I was in this… black space. I couldn't see anything. I heard this voice and something kept touching me. When the 'light' finally came on, there was someone who looked like me standing before me except that he was wearing a night class uniform, had red eyes, and fangs. After some… minor setbacks we talked… The reason my eyes keep changing is the fact that I have met and made a deal with my inner beast. His name is Kagami."
Zero took a deep breath as he waited for Kaname to process the information he had given the pureblood. Actually, he was waiting for Kaname to either kill or laugh at him. If he hadn't experienced it firsthand he doubted he would believe himself.
"You gave him the information, it's up to him to decide what to do with it," Kagami said as a ghostly hand stroked Zero's cheek.
Zero sighed, "I know…"
"Why didn't you tell him I gave you your memories back?" Kagami wondered.
Zero shrugged, "He probably hates me anyway for the way I acted the morning after."
"Maybe, maybe not. You never know unless you try… Tell him Zero-chan. I think you'll be surprised… It also might not hurt to throw an apology in," Kagami grinned.
Zero groaned, "You're not gonna let me alone until I tell him are you?"
Kagami chuckled, "Noooooope!"
"-ryu? Kiryu? Kiryu!" a voice broke through his mental musing.
Blinking quickly, he jerked back as he saw Kaname kneeling in front of him, "What?"
Kaname stood, "You were staring into space, you wouldn't answer when I talked to you."
Zero rubbed a hand over his face, "Yeah, I was having a conversation."
"With this Kagami I presume?" the pureblood asked, his eyes still disbelieving.
Closing his eyes, Zero leaned his head back on the couch, "Yeah… So… Any thoughts on what I told you?"
"Give me one reason I should believe you Kiryu?" Kaname asked, betrayal flashing through Kaname's eyes before it was gone, covered by an emotionless mask.
Zero sighed, "You're still mad at me aren't you?"
"Whatever for Kiryu?" Kaname asked calmly.
"Because I forgot," Zero mumbled.
Kaname's eyes narrowed, "What do you mean?"
Sitting forward, Zero rested his elbows on his knees, "You broke down in front of me and the next morning I acted as though nothing had happened. I yelled at you and even pointed my gun at you… While I was with Kagami… He showed me everything… He showed me the night in the clearing, how you helped me afterward, and he even showed me what happened with Aido."
"So you're saying you forgot… everything? And that's why you acted that way?" Kaname asked, although he already knew, he wanted to hear Zero say it.
Zero stood up quickly, glaring at the pureblood, "So what! You'd rather believe me to be an uncaring heartless bastard than to admit I'm not perfect? Well you know what! Fuck you Kaname!"
With that Zero turned and ran from the room. Kaname sat there, stunned for a few seconds before rushing up to the door. However, as he looked down the hall there was no sight of the hunter. Sighing softly, Kaname ran his fingers through his hair, mentally cursing himself. Suddenly, he stopped, what was that smell? His eyes widened as he recognized the smell of tears; looking down, he saw a few crystalline drops resting on the floor right outside the door. Walking quickly to his desk, he picked up his phone and dialed numbers rapidly.
"Hello?" the voice on the other end answered.
"Kaien, we have a problem…" Kaname whispered, gripping his hair harshly in one hand.
"I'll be right there," Kaien responded and hung up.
Kaname sighed; Kaien was going to be furious. He had trusted Kaname to take care of Zero but the pureblood had only dug himself a deeper hole with the hunter. Growling, Kaname collapsed in his chair as he rested his head on his desk.
Tears stung his eyes as whispered hoarsely, "Zero."
END
A/N: I was going to have them make up and be all happy n such but then I was like, wait! That isn't right. Just because of certain circumstances doesn't mean they would automatically understand one another. Anyway, I don't know quite how I feel about this chapter but I tried my best to make it entertaining. I hope you all enjoy it and please let me know what you think! ALSO: IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS FOR ZERO'S NOBLE POWER, LET ME KNOW. I WILL TAKE ALL SUGGESTIONS INTO CONSIDERATION!
Benny-sama- I am so happy that you decided to review :D I am also happy that you like the story so much. Don't worry, while I had thought of making everything square between Kaname and Zero, I fixed that. There won't be any rushing of the relationship. I also have no plans of characterizing Zero as a girl, he is still going to be his tough stubborn self, even in bed lol. I hope you continue to enjoy it :D
ishala8- Lol, I didn't mean to make it seem like incest but it probably did come across that way. I kind of wanted to characterize Kagami as a sibling figure to Zero, who smothers the other in affection and love because as I said, Zero never truly had that after he was turned. I don't plan on anything else happening between the two like THAT but now that you mention it, I might make a slight side story to this in the future :D I hope you continue to like the story!
ben4kevin- Again, I'll see what I can do about the Zero worship, seems a little ways off at the moment. Kaname and Zero need to get their acts together first. How's that for waking up indeed, bet Aido wishes Zero would have stayed asleep now lol. Anywho, hope you continue to like the story!
fujoshii92- It was Kaname alright, though things didn't exactly go in a good direction. I promise to fix that in the next chapter! I hope you continue to look forward to the story :D
xXBlackxxStarXx- I'm glad you liked it :) I hope you continue to do so!
freakish88- Yup, it was Kaname at the door :D Sadly though, old habits die hard between the two. I promise to make it better soon! Please, continue to enjoy :D
Miyuki1393- Yup, Zero is awake now… Though part of me wishes I would have kept him asleep if I knew I was just going to hurt him again :( I'm glad you like Kags n Zero, I worked really hard on them! I hope you continue to enjoy the story.
Sonzai Taz- I'm sure this wasn't the reunion you had in mind, but at least they… kind of talked lol. It will get better soon, I promise. As for Zero's personality, as you can see he is a bit more… sensitive but more changes will be noted in the future. I hope you like the chapter, please let me know what you think.
Evangelion-Wings- Lol, I'm glad you like Kags, he is such a sweetheart… Unless someone hurts his precious Zero-chan :D I hope you look forward to more Kagami appearances! Please, read and review, let me know what you think :D
sweet Sonia- As for your question, it is episode 7 of the first season when Zero stabs Kaname. Scarlet Maze or Scarlet Colored Labyrinth I believe. Aido sniffing Zero just seemed funny to me and it gave me a chance to have Zero try to rip him a new one. Sadly, that didn't quite happen lol, but he might have a new respect for the hunter :D I hope you enjoyed the chapter, please let me know what you think of it!
Kistarus- I know right! Stupid cliffhangers! I don't know why I continue to write them, I guess I can never find a good place to end concretely so they always end up cliffies. I hope you like the chapter!
Warfang- As you can see, Kaname isn't reacting… too well to the idea of his beast having a mind of its own. I'm glad that you intend to keep reading, I hope you continue to enjoy the story.
Naruta13- Lol, I guess just think of Kags and Zero as Ichiru and Zero together but with one of them with red eyes. Zero's awakening started badass but it kind of tapered off there. And Kaname hurt poor Zero's feeling . stupid pureblood! I hope you enjoyed the chapter!
Sasu-Sama' Sarukiji-Sempai- Honestly, Kags came out from my pure laziness in not wanting to write his full name over and over again lol. But I'm glad you liked it. They haven't found out he's a noble yet, but they will. I hope you liked the chapter.
SonamySistah96- I'm glad that you had fun ^^ and I'm glad that you liked the last chapter. Kagami is kind of childish only cause Zero isn't, Zero was forced to grow up way too fast. I'm glad you like how they interact ^^ I hope you enjoy this chapter and those to come :D
queenruby987- As for Zero's power, I have a few ideas but if you have one, as said above, please let me know. I will take all suggestions into consideration and make a decision based upon that. I hope you like the chapter, please let me know what you think :)
lovestatic- I'm glad that you found the story, I keep waiting for new ones to come up as well. I've practically read all the completed ones as well as the ones that update regularly, I'm running out of reading material. Sadly, I read my own stories on when I get bored, conceited huh? Lol. Aido's punishment at the hands of Zero is not over by a long shot :D I hope you continue to enjoy the story. I hope I don't disappoint you :D
Angelling- Lol, all the ideas in my head is pretty much a blessing in disguise. Most times I can't concentrate on anything else other than writing. I am currently working on another story besides this one and Relinquish that is slightly AU. Once I get a few chapters typed up I will post it. I am really happy that you are enjoying my ideas. Also, thank you for the compliment :D
vampireprincessn1- Hahaha, I'm glad you like it so much. Here is the next chapter :D I hope you enjoy it.
Irmina- In this fic I kind of have Zero characterized as being fed up with fighting against aspects of his life that he knows he can't change. It's a little different from his actual character but it kills me knowing Zero hates himself so I wanted to change that a little bit. I'm glad that you like the Kags/Zero interaction. Kags is the epitome of Zero's childish side. I'm happy that came through. I hope you liked the chapter, I hope you let me know what you think :D
Emomanga- I'm glad you like the story so far. I will try to continue to crank out chapters but I'm trying to get a job (need money for school) so I don't know how well that will work out :( But I will still try to do my best! I hope you continue to enjoy the story!
Tiffanybane- Lol, I'm sorry? I know cliffhanger suck, but I can't seem to stop writing them, can never find a concrete way to end the chapters. I think this chapter is a little better in that department. I'm happy that you are liking the story, I hope you continue to do so :D
mi5tan- Sorry, no Aido butt kicking in this chapter :( But Aido's torture isn't quite complete yet, I will make sure of that! I'm glad you like the story. I look forward to hearing from you in the future :D
Wow, that was a lot of reviews! Thank you all for taking the time to review, it means the world to me. Also, thanks to those who added my story to any of their lists :D You guys are all awesome!
