Hey everyone, I'm back and this is the third instalment of Ruby Walkermen.


*Chapter 3*

Ruby POV

"Ruby, wake up! It's already 4pm! If you don't, I'll have to pour ice water on you."

"You're joking, you won't do it. I'm still tired from the jet lag" I mumbled 'sleepily'. I walked into the bathroom, fully aware that Seiren, sent by Kaname to watch us, was on a branch outside our room's window watching our every movement for a suspicious one.

"Anyway, let's head to one of those restaurants in the town near to here that serves sashimi and sushi. Hey wait; we have not explored Cross Academy yet, so let's wait for the night class to come out before leaving for dinner." I acted like a spoilt girl.

"Fine, whatever you want, Ruby!" Annabeth was told by me that she has to drop the Master and Servant relationship when we are in Cross Academy.


15 minutes later

"Ok, I am done, let's go Annabeth" I called out.

I walked out of my dorm room only to have a near head-on collision with Yuuki.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Yuuki, what are you doing?"

"Running away from fan girls…"

"Oh, why don't I help you? And in return, you will give me a tour around the school." I enthusiastically told Yuuki.

"Take care of the fan girls." I instructed Annabeth while running off with Yuuki.

(Random visiting of campus and saw Chairman on the way and we talked to the Chairman, here is the conversation.)

"Hello, Ruby! Hello, Yuuki!" exclaimed the Chairman.

"Hello, Chairman Cross!" we chorused together.

Chairman Cross collapsed to the ground and started crying, "Why didn't Yuuki call me otou-san?"

I looked at my watch and started swearing. I walked away and said, "It's time for the night class to come out."

Yuuki said to Chairman Cross, "Good Bye, Chair… Otou-san…"

Yuuki dashed off with me following after a "See you again soon, Chairman Cross."

We got to the gates of the Night Class Dorm as the Night Class started to walk out and met up with Annabeth.

I muttered with disgust as Aidou Hanabusa started his routine of, "Good morning, ladies. Have a nice evening…" to the fan girls. I noticed Seiren appearing from behind Kaname to report about what she observed of me and Annabeth to Kaname.

With my hearing, I was able to pick out Seiren report from the mass of noise. It goes "Kaname-sama, Walkermen-san and Heo-san did nothing to arouse my suspicion except they woke up around 4pm today"

Kaname replied to Seiren's report with a nod of his head. Kaname looked up to me and catches my eye and I smiled at him. He looked perturbed by this for a moment and then he adjusted his expression and told Seiren to continue to keep watch on us.

We (Me and Annabeth) continued our walk to the school gates after the crowd dispersed and it was uneventful until Aidou appeared.


Aidou POV

Eesh, class is so boring, I for one, will skip class.

Where should I go…? I know, I can visit those two beauties that have just arrived whom are in the day class. But where are they?

I walked around the whole school with my vampire speed and found them as they were walking to town for dinner. I started to comment on their beauty, "You are so beautiful… …,"

Then Annabeth commanded me to go away. I ignored her and wanted to continue when I sensed a chill in the air like when Kaname-sama gave me a glare. I slowly turned my head and saw Annabeth giving me a similar glare. I walked away as fast as I could and went back to class.

"Haha, did you see what he did; he took off like a bat out of hell. That boy never ceases to amaze me…" I caught this part of the conversation before getting out of earshot.


Ruby POV

"Haha, did you see what he did; he took off like a bat out of hell. That boy never ceases to amaze me; I wonder what else he can actually mess up during our time in Cross Academy."

After Annabeth got rid of Aidou, we continued to walk to town. I commented Annabeth on her excellent death glare. After a few minutes, we reached town and located the restaurant that sold sushi and sashimi. As we were queuing up, I felt the aura of a Level E in the area with a scent of human blood and I said, "Let's go hunt that Level E!" Annabeth agreed and we set off to hunt down the Level E.

We located the Level E quickly and found it in an abandoned building at the fringes of town. It was attacking a human as we entered the room. The Level E turned towards us and smiled "Here comes another few more treats!" It said eerily at us and turned back to the victim.

"Annabeth, this time I will take care of that beast. So just distract Seiren for me, will you?"

"Yes, my lady."

I released my aura and the Level E swivelled around and spoke a word that I have not heard since 10 years ago, "Silver-blood"

"Ah you know," I smirked, then continued, "You shouldn't have become a vampire, now look how pathetic you are. Even attacking a victim much weaker than you, to satisfy your hunger, you are a disgrace to me!"

My eyes flashed silver, and the Level E exploded leaving nothing but dust.

"Let us head back to Cross Academy, Annabeth."

"What about dinner, my Lady?"

"All this action just cost me to lose my appetite." With that, Annabeth and I headed back to Cross Academy.


2 minutes earlier, in Kaname's study.

Kaname POV

(Sigh)Yuuki is arguing with Kiriyu again! And why does that prefect get to be so close to Yuuki.

I was still thinking about Yuuki, when an unknown and more prestigious aura than mine flashed for half a minute before disappearing. It made me snap around quickly to face town which is where the aura came from.

I was still staring in the direction of the aura after it had disappeared and walked briskly to one of my many bookshelves and forcefully pulled out a book that was untouched since I came to the Academy, titled 'History of the Past'. I flipped through the pages of the book and it only provided a description with a few words for a very small group of vampires. It said 'More powerful than purebloods' and nothing more. It gave no more information than what I already knew.

I slammed the book together in frustration and went back to my study table. I sat down on my posh armchair as I drummed my fingers on the polished wood and wondered who could have that mysterious aura.


Ruby POV

Now what should I do I'm so bored, and there is still quite a number of hours before the sun rises. Ah… I know, let's go and take a look at what Kiriyu-Kun is doing, shall we?

I stuck my head out my room's door to check whether Yuuki or Zero is patrolling the corridors. I know doing this is stupid, but it is just to keep up appearances.

Hmm… I wonder how Kiriyu-kun is doing; he has been fighting his vampire instincts for 4 years which is fantastic for an ex-human vampire. But soon he will drop to a Level E if Level A and above doesn't help him.

I walked along the corridor and surprisingly, saw Zero running pass the girls' dorm with a pain look on his face and was giving out an aura of hunger and frustration.

I followed Zero to the stables while completely erasing my aura since Kiriyu is very sensitive. He collapses onto the soft ground grasping his collar and he also tensed up, his face showing immense pain.

My my, seems like he can't hold on much longer. Kuran Kaname better act soon or one of his pawns will die. Anyway, I wonder should I step in to stabilise Kiriyu Zero blood status. Whatever, like I care what happens to Kiriyu Zero but this is for Kuran Yuuki's sake.
