Shadow here! I am so sorry for my huge delay in getting my next chapter up, but I'm back with the new chapter! School is starting back on Jan. 5th, so my updates may become a little spread out, but I will try to not let that happen. Anyways, onto the story! :)

Disclaimer: I don't own Vampire Knight; I only own my OC and parts of the plot in this story. :]

Last time:
Time seemed to go by so slowly. I wasn't sure if it was my excitement, or if it was just my imagination. Throughout the rest of the day, Kaname and I weren't able to talk much more aside from anything class related. Finally, after forever, school ended. Now, all I had to do was survive the night until it was time to go see Kaname again.

Night finally fell, and I used the same tactics as last time when I snuck out. While on my way to Kaname's, I noticed I was being followed. Realization hit me…It was the same care that was following me on my birthday! I sped up a little now that I felt somewhat afraid. I was thankful that Kaname's house was too far from where I was.

The silver car was coming up on my passenger side, and then he rammed into my car! I was barely able to keep my car under control, and once I was sure I wouldn't wreck I sped up even more so I could get to my destination even faster. As soon as I was about to turn off on the long driveway that lead to Kaname's house, the car that was following me did an abrupt turn and left as quickly as their car would take them.

I was a little disorientated as I knocked on the door. Aidou answered it again, but this time there was another boy with him. The new boy looked similar to Aidou, and if I had to guess I would have said they were related in some way. "Ah, Miyako, you came back. I'm sorry for the way I acted last time, and I promise it won't happen again." I smiled somewhat as I walked through the door, "No, it's alright. By the way, are you two related?" I gestured to the other boy who had so far kept quiet, but by his expression I'd say he doesn't really talk much for conversation. He looked bored, or maybe sleepy.

"Oh, this is my cousin, Kain. He's more of the quiet type, which really translates to the lazy type." Aidou's cousin, Kain, glared at him, but otherwise said nothing. "Anyway, did you come to see Kaname again?" I nodded while I was silently laughing at the bantering way the cousins acted. The cousins led me up the stairs and into a different room than before. Aidou told me to wait for Kaname here.

After they disappeared, I decided to take a look around the room and a bookcase caught my eye almost immediately. I walked over and scanned through the books. I spied an Edgar Allen Poe poetry collection, and I grabbed it and sat down. I began to get lost in my favorite poem The Raven. Just as I started reading the 6th stanza, the door opened to reveal Kaname. I stood politely as he entered the room, but he just gestured for me to sit back down. "There's no reason for you to be so formal. Just make yourself at home."

He had already sat down, so I sat down beside him. Apparently my face must have still looked a bit disorientated. "Is something work, Miyako?" I jumped slightly before I sighed, "Well, before I tell you, tell me what you meant at school earlier." He closed his eyes, "I'd rather you forget what I said that, but I'll tell you anyway. Do you remember when I told you I was a Pureblood vampire?" I nodded, and he continued.

"Well, that's not the only kind of vampire there is. Think of it as a pyramid. On the top of the pyramid there are the Purebloods. We're the most powerful vampires, but also the rarest. The Purebloods are the only vampires that can turn a human into a vampire. The Aristocrats come next. They're like the nobles of the vampire world. They're powerful, but not as powerful as the Purebloods. Just about all of the vampires here, with the exception of myself, are Aristocrats. Common vampires come after the Aristocrats. They're just like their name says; they're just normal vampires with not much power, but they're civil enough. After them, we have the Former Humans. They're humans that were turned by a Pureblood. They'll pretty much act like act like they did before they were turned, but they're not very good with controlling their thirst. The lowest level on the pyramid is the Level Es. They're Former Humans that have completely given into their bloodlust, and by doing that they've reduced themselves into nothing but bloodthirsty beast."

The thought of Level Es wandering around frightened me some. "What about the Level Es? Do you just let them wander around with that mind frame?" Kaname shook his head, "No, whenever we receive a report of a Level E, we dispatch someone to take care of it. There's no cure for them, so we have no choice but to kill them." I felt sympathetic towards the Level E's, but I could understand why they needed to be taken care of in that manner. Personally, if I was wandering around like that I would want someone to kill me. I wouldn't want to take the chance of me hurting someone I loved and not realizing it. I shivered at the thought, and Kaname wrapped his arm around me.

"The reason I enrolled in your school is because we got a report that evidence has been found that a Pureblood has been purposefully creating Level Es for a kind of revolution. Since we don't have much information on this particular Pureblood I figured I'd personally enroll in your school to make sure you were safe. This Pureblood is hoping to enslave the human world so that the vampires will once again have their reign, and he's even given his little organization a name. They call themselves The Sin Crusaders. I didn't want to take the chance of having you harmed in any way at all."

There was a strong silence that lasted for awhile before he finally broke it. "Now, what were you going to tell me earlier" I felt his eyes fall on me when I didn't answer right away. I was trying to figure out the best way to tell him without having him get too worried. "Well, I'm kind of being followed by someone. Do you remember that night you came to my house?" He nodded urging me to continue.

"Well, that was my birthday, and that morning on the way to school I noticed I was being followed. A silver car with really dark tinted windows seemed to follow me down every road I took. I decided to take a back road to school to make sure someone was following me instead of me being paranoid. Sure enough, the car followed me, and just as I was coming up on the last turn the car turned around and left. Then, today while I was on my way over here I saw the same car following me again. Apparently, whoever they are they really don't like me. They tried to total my car. I guess I'm a better driver than they thought though because I was able to keep fair control over it. My car isn't totaled; they rammed into the passenger side and did a pretty good amount of damage."

Kaname did not look pleased, "When did you say this first started?" I looked up at him, "On my birthday; the same day you came to see me. Why?"

Yes, I know…I left off on a cliffhanger and it's short, and I keep promising to make them longer, but I can't find the time to do so. I hope I can make the next one longer…So, again, I hope you enjoyed and please review if you have time. :)

Please Review!
