Thank you to everyone who reviewed or added this to story/author alerts/favs. The fact that people want to read this and have taken the time to review/add to alerts/favs makes me very happy. I apologise again for another late update, I wrote this in sections then needed to join them together, which was meant to make my writing quicker, but instead it slowed down because I couldn't get into the flow of the story, so I am very sorry, but will try to keep updating quicker that this.

Summary: Zero and Kaname have always been similar, with similar traumatic experiences and pasts. Both are drawn to one another, though they are loath to admit it. As they both know the biggest difference Zero is a level D, who will one day fall to level E, while Kaname is a pureblood. However a new Day Class student seems to have hidden secrets which concern Zero, and when the truth is revealed the changes it brings about throw them into the greatest danger ever possible.

This will be a Yaoi fic, which is M/M with ZeroXKaname and vice versa. There will possibly be some TakumaXShiki as well. Some possible other pairings but Kaname/Zero Zero/Kaname will be the main one. This will mostly be Romance, Drama and possibly Humour.

A.n. This is slightly AU as Ichiru died when Shizuka was killed and Zero has not got any of her blood– so there is nothing to stop Zero falling to level E. Kaname hasn't yet given Zero any blood and Yuki is still human. Also Rido hasn't yet attacked the academy.

Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Knight or its characters, they are the work of Matsuri Hino, I am just borrowing them for the purpose of this fic. All I own are my own characters and the plot line.

There is OOCness and switching of pov's. I should probably have mentioned this before, but this is un-betaed

On a side note, I personally prefer Zero seme and Kaname as uke, so that will come across more but I'm not going to place either in the exclusive role of seme or uke, so they will be changing round.

Pureblood Powers

Chapter 4 - Conversations

Arriving back at the Day Class Classrooms

Normal pov

Yuki was anxiously fidgeting in her seat in the classroom, where was Zero? She had hovered outside for as long as she dared hoping to see his familiar head of silver hair coming down the corridor probably completely unhurried as he didn't seem to care if he was late. Yori at first had waited with her but when the teacher began to take attendance Yori had headed inside and a few seconds later her teacher had told Yuki she was to come into the classroom immediately if she didn't want a detention.

Yuki had promptly headed inside, taking her place next to Yori glancing up to see Alanna was already seated and didn't seem that bothered by Zero's absence. Yuki sighed usually she wasn't that worried but today…Zero had been with Kaname and whenever they were together they seemed to fight and she was sure that Kaname being a pureblood would be stronger that Zero being only a level D despite his strong hunter traits, so what if Zero was late because he was injured? Luckily before Yuki's thoughts could lead her to doing something rash the classroom door opened and Zero slouched in heading up to his place at the back of the class without even glancing at the teacher

"KIRYU! Why are you so late? Class began 20 minutes ago!"

Zero shrugged in response and then began ignoring the teacher again, in favour of sending a glance down to Yuki and then looking up and across to Alanna.

Zero's pov

I really don't have anything to tell the teacher 'sorry I'm late sensei but I'm actually a vampire and Kaname Kuran (and all the rest of the Night Class) is as well and I needed blood so I'm late because I was having a blood drinking session with Kaname that then turned into a bit of a make out session and therefore we lost track of time.' Yeah that would really go down well! He could only imagine the face of the other Day Class students and his teacher! Even Yuki and Alanna would probably be surprised at the "make out session" part. Also of course the trouble it would cause for the headmaster would be unimaginable. Yes the shrug was definitely the better option, also all he wanted to do right now was go over the last few minutes in his head. He was finally actually happy, Kaname returned his feelings! And he was going to see him tonight at class change over!

Normal pov

Yuki threw a worried glance in Zero's direction, he didn't seem to have fought with Kaname, at least there didn't appear to be any physical injuries. And there was something…off…about Zero's aura right now, he seemed less…angry than usual. And Yuki was still unsure as to why on earth Zero would want to escort any vampire much less a pureblood, especially Kaname, any where unless it was into the Hunter Association headquarters for interrogation or imprisonment! So why was he now readily escorting Kaname back to the Moon Dorms?

Alanna too was looking questioningly at Yuki, seeming to have just remembered her words on how much Zero hated vampires, especially purebloods and extra especially Kaname Kuran, she threw a glance to Zero then across to Yuki who shrugged her shoulders in response. Alanna glanced back down at Zero and seemed to stiffen for a moment before gazing at him as if in new light, a slightly smug smirk on her face, what had caused that? Yuki wondered, she sure as hell wanted to find our! But Alanna had turned back to her work seeming nonchalant.

Alanna's pov

I'm sure I smelt blood just now, it was very faint, but coming from the direction of the Moon Dorms. And now Zero's back, nobody else noticed it (of course) but Zero smells like Kaname! It's faint but I'm sure I sense him on Zero. Wait! What am I doing! I nearly revealed myself all because I thought I smelt something! I'll just ask Zero about it later.

Normal pov

Yuki sighed now both Zero and Alanna had there heads bent thought Zero looked like he was asleep while Alanna was working, she turned to Yori ready to start up a conversation, but before she could the teacher pounced

"Cross! Come up and do this problem, Now!" Yuki panickedly stood up desperately trying to do the mathematical problem on the board in her head before she reached the front of the class. After standing at the board for about 5 minutes (and feeling like a total moron) the teacher sighed and sent Yuki back to her seat and doing the problem himself, Yuki sighed interrogation of Alanna (and Zero) would have to wait if she wanted to have even the vaguest hope in hell of understanding the lesson.

(There are going to be a few time skips in this chapter and those to come, because otherwise I'll have to put in filler chapters. Because at current were onto chapter 4 and only 2 days have passed)

Time skip

A few days had passed and Zero and Kaname still hadn't had a chance to talk together, neither wanted to go to the others dorm and Kaname hadn't really given a reason for his absence in the morning. It seemed that not only was Takuma up but also for some inexplicable reason so was Aido ,who it seemed had told others and it now seemed to have spread round the moon dorms like wildfire, therefore he knew they were watching him with suspicion. If he was to skip class so soon the other vampires would begin to wonder what he was doing, it was only natural, even if they told him they weren't (which meant they weren't being loyal) and non-loyal followers could double cross him for another pureblood, that could be disastrous. Also Zero hadn't got a reason for missing patrol to give Yuki and Alanna, and right now what he wanted would definitely put paid to patrol for that whole night.

Yuki still hadn't had a chance to quiz Zero or Alanna either, how on earth they managed to disappear between lessons she just didn't know, she was sure that they were avoiding her. After missing them at lunch her first instinct was try at class changeover or patrol. Class changeover quickly proved way to hectic and after patrol Yuki was always to tired to try and bring up the subject, consequently 3 days had now passed and she was still unsure of what had transpired that morning 3 days ago. Sighing in boredom and tiredness combined she slump down on the desk. Just a few minutes won't hurt and the teacher probably won't even notice she smiled, a minute later she was sound asleep with her head on the desk.

A few hours later

Bbbrrringgg!

The bell for lunch went, this jolted Yuki awake. She eagerly gathered her books looking for Alanna or Zero either of which she wanted to question in the cafeteria. To her dismay neither was to be seen which was now becoming usual, in fact the only other person left in the class room was Yori, patiently waiting for her.

Meanwhile Zero had quickly left the classroom and after grabbing a quick lunch from the cafeteria he headed for the place on the grounds he was sure he could be alone – the stables – where he had headed at each lunch before. Which was why he was surprised to arrive there and find Alanna, who had spent every lunch before (unbeknown to him) searching for him. Though what surprised him more was the fact that she was standing next to White Lily's stall petting the mare. Zero had never seen White Lily let anyone except him that close to her and he watched for a moment in the shadows of the doorway and Alanna rubbed the usually temperamental horses nose. After few moments she called out

"Zero are you going to stand in the door way all day? I won't bite you know!"

"Sorry Alanna, it's just…I've never seen White Lily let anyone that close to her except myself."

"Oh! Well I've always had a way with animals…"

"I see"

Zero entered the stables and flopped down on the straw next to Lily's stall.

"Aren't you going to get anything to eat Alanna?"

"Nah, I didn't eat in the day time before and it would feel weird if I did now. Anyway Zero, what went on with you and Kaname? When you took him to the Moon Dorms?"

Zero was instantly suspicious, why was Alanna asking? "Nothing, why anyway?"

Alanna sighed "Are you sure nothing happened?"

"Yes what is this, 20 questions?"

"No...but…well…" (How do I say this without revealing anything?!) "You were acting awfully different when you came back, that's all."

"I wasn't acting that different!"

"You were too acting different and you seem happier, then and since then – even now" then in a whisper Alanna added "and you had Kaname's aura all around you…"

"What!" (How on earth can she tell that? The only people who can tell that are vampires and strong hunters! All I can sense from her is human, so how…? Though I guess I'd better tell her seems she's going to find out anyway)

"Do you promise not to tell Yuki?"

"Promise"

"Kaname gave me his blood, because otherwise I'll fall to level E and it's his fault because he killed Shizuka Hio, and I need my master's blood to prevent the fall. However as another pureblood, especially since he was the one who killed my master, his blood should prolong the time I have left." (after that I felt his feelings through his blood and we ended up confessing to each other and kissing, but I don't think Alanna need's the know that!)

"What if there were a way to prevent the fall forever, and you'd defiantly never have to think about becoming level E, because it 100% would never happen?"

"I'd like that, but there's no way and even if there was a way there would probably be some sort of catch to it."

"Oh…" (So he'd like to not ever have the possibility of falling to level E, but I wonder if he'd feel the pros out weighed the cons? Hang on a minute! That doesn't explain why he had Kaname's aura all around him! I would expect a bit of aura to get on him when drinking blood, but since they hate one another (supposedly) they surely wouldn't have got that close to one another (which is the main and easiest way to get another's aura on you), so something else must have happened!)

"Zero are you sure absolutely nothing else happened? Aura's don't move so easily just by drinking blood." Alanna stood for a moment studying Zero's face, watching as it turned from lightly dusted pink, to a deeper and deeper cherry red. A second later realization hit Alanna like a light bulb lighting up and illuminating the darkness caused by confusion and half truths, but before she could confirm if her sudden idea was correct or not Zero hurriedly began to talk.

"Alanna, you must never ever, and I mean ever, tell anyone else. In fact I have no idea why I'm telling you, but I really like Kaname, and I mean I like him. When I drunk his blood I felt his feelings for me and so we sort of confessing and ended up kind of kissing each other…"

Alanna swallowed, well it wasn't like she hadn't expected something along those lines, still hearing it…

It also made her think, how will Zero take it? When he knows the truth, it will affect far more people than just him now. He has the pureblood prince, which means by revealing everything, I bring not only myself and Zero into trouble, but I drag Kaname in (which I suppose might have happened anyway) and with him comes the rest of Night Class, probably Yuki too, the headmaster will almost certainly follow her! Then before you know it I have dragged the whole Hunter Association and Vampire Senate into this, it's like some giant chain reaction! The resulting leftovers, who and what will remain to pick up the pieces? I'm beginning to think I should have stayed well away, even if that did result in my death, though who knows if I had stayed away would anything be any better of? At least this way we might have a fighting chance!

While Alanna had been wrapped up in her thoughts Zero had begun to eat his lunch, hoping Alanna wouldn't question and embarrass him further luckily she seemed to have run out of questions. And this allowed his own thoughts returned to Kaname and what had occurred between the two, however his train of thought was interrupted by Alanna, who at some point had obviously returned to the real world and was now attempting to, once again, converse with him.

"So Zero, when are you next gonna see Kaname?"

"Um, we didn't really state anytime or place, we were going to meet at class change over that night but ever since then Aido or Ruka keep popping up and herding him away almost, I hope tonight will be different though or that he might just cut class to come and see me."

"If you want I can cover your area for patrol, it just means adding a bit extra to my area. Then you can try and get Kaname to cut class earlier or tell him you're free at least. I'll even make up an excuse to Yuki if you aren't back by the time we end patrol. Though to be honest I don't know why you don't just tell Yuki, I promise I won't though."

"Really, you'd do that! Alanna, you are like officially my second most favourite person right now, after Kaname obviously. Oh…and we don't know how to tell Yuki, honestly Kaname saved her about 12 years ago and she's always adored him since, also we kind of used to fight for her affections, so it's a bit awkward, explaining that we now like each other not her."

"I guess that makes sense, though I think she'll probably find out. It's not like you can keep this a secret forever and if you keep acting different she'll realize something's up. She was looking at you really quizzically when you came into class."

"Yeah, I know that's part of why I keep coming to the stables, I sort of avoiding her till I get to talk to Kaname at least. Plus I want to be alone. I'll have to ask Kaname what we should do about Yuki, we'll probably tell her together at some point."

Alanna glanced at her watch, and yelped in surprise.

"Lunch is over, the bell went just now. I suppose we couldn't hear it since we're in the stables and away from the school building!"

With that the two headed quickly back to the classroom, managing to slip in just as the teacher began to take attendance and so avoiding a late mark. To Zero the afternoon lessons seemed to drag on forever, until the final bell went and the Day Class filed out. Zero, Yuki and Alanna went to the Night Class gates to wait till class change over and soon there were many girls and a few boys waiting to catch a glimpse of the Night Class.

As the Night Class began to walk through the throng, led of course be Kaname the Day Class rabble became more un-orderly but still remained within reason, as they all remembered the day just a few days before.

Kaname made a beeline straight to Zero, luckily tonight there had been a small drama in the moon dorms between - who else - Aido and Ruka over who was the most loyal to Kaname. Neither had wanted to admit they were keeping Kaname away from the prefects and so consequently Kain – as ever in between the two – had stepped in and taken Ruka aside, for once managing to push his responsibilities for Aido onto Takuma. Therefore now both Ruka and Aido were unable to prevent Kaname from going to see the prefects.

"Hi, Zero. Nice work, keeping them in check. And I'll see you tonight." The last part he whispered so only Zero's vampire hearing allowed him to pick it up. Luckily for both Zero and Kaname, Yuki was trying to stop three girls intent on getting a photo and didn't notice their transgression, however Alanna did.

As the Night Class moved on and the trio of prefects began herding the girls back to the dorms Alanna fell into step beside Zero,

"What did Kaname say to you just now?"

"He said he'd meet me tonight so I'm going to wait near the school building."

"I thought I could tell Yuki, you felt unwell and so I offered to cover your area for patrol? I'll try and get her off on patrol quickly too."

"That's great! Thanks Alanna."

"Your welcome."

Once the girls were safely in their dorms Alanna turned to Yuki

"It gets dark so quickly at this time of year doesn't it Yuki? We really need to head of on patrol now don't we."

Yuki didn't seem to notice anything amiss and agreed, heading of on patrol after reminding Zero not to skip out on his duties. Alanna turned to Zero and winked before sprinting of to patrol herself. Zero flushed slightly before making his way towards the school building.

Kaname was heading to class with the rest of the Night Class when he spotted a flash of silver through a window. Finally spotted Zero, he thought, I was wondering how I'd find him! He quickly turned to Takuma

"Takuma I just remembered some important business I have to attend to please inform the teacher that I will be unable to attend classes tonight."

"Of course Kaname, will you be gone all night?"

"Yes" was all Kaname replied before waiting till the rest of the class had gone into the class room before turning and leaving the building, then hurrying in the direction he had seen Zero running.

Zero was loitering near the room the night class was using that night, trying to see if Kaname was inside without being noticed by any other Night Class members or being spotted by Yuki. Kaname hid his aura and slipped behind a tree to observe Zero, admiring the way the moonlight made his hair glint silver. Suddenly he had an inspirational idea as how how to let the Zero know he was there, keeping his aura hidden he sneaked up behind the hunter then wrapped his arms around him and whispered in his ear,

"Hey, I am here you know, or perhaps you were looking for someone else? Aido perhaps or maybe you'd prefer Takuma? Hate to say it but they both already like someone and it isn't you. You know who does like you though Zero? I do. I like you a lot."

"What the hell Kaname! Why did you sneak up on me! Stupid pureblood."

Kaname pretended to pout,

"You're making me upset Zero. And looking at other guys, you'll make me jealous."

Zero dragged Kaname away from the school building

"I know you aren't upset Kaname, so you can stop pretending."

Now they were out of sight of anybody Zero kissed Kaname quickly on the lips before whispering in his ear

"Also why would I look at other guys, especially other vampires, when I have my very own pureblood vampire right here?"

Kaname couldn't help shivering slightly at Zero saying that Kaname was his. There was something about the possessiveness in that statement that Kaname liked. He had spent his whole life trying not to be owned by someone as a pureblood, but with Zero it was different, he wasn't just some pureblood, he was a person, and he liked the thought of being owned but only if the person who owned him was Zero.

Now they were out of sight of the school buildings and the areas where the patrol passed Zero's more playful side was appearing.

"You know Kaname you really shouldn't tease a hunter, especially me." he was now walking Kaname backwards until they hit a tree, he then swooped down kissing Kaname even deeper than before.

"Zero" he managed breathlessly as Zero was now beginning to kiss down his face and neck

"Umh" Zero replied barley moving from where his head was inches from Kaname's neck

I told Takuma that I'd be gone all night…"

"Good, cos I have Alanna covering for me…and I want to spend all night with you Kaname"

To make sure Kaname understood in exactly what way he wanted to spend that night he retuned with his ministrations and moved closer so his body was flush against Kaname's. He then easily let one of his legs go between Kaname's legs and beginning to push Kaname's legs apart.

Kaname moaned as he felt Zero's thigh rub against his length which was already quite hard. Zero smirked wickedly, what had been his fantasy was now his reality – and he sure was enjoying it! He rubbed harder lowly whispering in Kaname's ear

"You like that Kaname …? You want more, don't you Kaname?"

Kaname was struggling to remain in sense of the whole thing and didn't even hear Zero's rhetorical question. When Zero received no response he looked at Kaname, his eyes shut panting and almost arching into him, his dark tresses mussed round his head and a very obvious arousal straining against his trousers, Zero pulled back slightly removing his leg from between Kaname's. The latter mewed softly at the loss of the friction and bucked his hips trying to regain it.

"I said Kaname do you like that and do you want more Kaname?

Well Kaname heard that now the friction had gone!

"Fuck yes! Zero, I need you, more now!"

"As you desire Kaname, so where can I steal you away too?"

"Why?"

"I don't know about you but against a tree in the woods is hardly a fitting place for ones first time." Kaname wasn't so sure about that right now all he wanted was Zero, as quickly as possible. But unfortunately Zero was quite sure he wasn't going to carry on here and, exerting enormous will power on his own part, managed to actually look as if he would move away. Kaname pulled back into reality for a few seconds

"Moon Dorms…should…be empty…now" He breathed out

"Fine by me" Zero swept Kaname into his arms after all it wasn't like he could think of anywhere better. Using vampire speed he sped to the Moon Dorms. Once he arrived in the empty Moon Dorms he headed instinctively to where the purebloods scent was strongest, his room.

When he had got there he tumbled Kaname onto the large king size bed, before shedding his own jacket and easily tossing Kaname's aside. Slowly he knelt on the bed capturing Kaname's lips in a searing kiss, his hands moving down to the purebloods shirt and begging to unbuttoning it, his hands sliding under it to caress his now bare chest before being pressed against Zero's, Zero's shirt already having disappeared. Both the males gasped at the skin on skin contact.

Until now Kaname had been allowing Zero to do as he wanted though he doubted whether or not he could have stopped him anyways, but now decided to take the initiative and managed to reverse there positions so now Zero was beneath him, the then ran his hands down Zero's chest relishing the speeding up of Zero's breathing, till his hands reached the prominent bulge in Zeros pants.

Then he began fumbling with Zero's belt buckle, damn why wouldn't it come undone?! He wore a belt everyday why couldn't he undo this one! It was only slightly different from his own. He heard Zero chuckle and his slender fingers joining his releasing the buckle

"Is that what you wanted Kaname?"

Kaname didn't even have the ability to answer, he was too busy looking at Zero's hard length

"It's so big…" he whispered it's big…bigger than my own!

Kaname then remembered what his original intentions had been and threw all caution to the wind as he bent down and swooped his mouth onto Zero's length.

"Ah…god…Kana…me!" the feeling of Kaname's mouth round him! It was so warm

Slowly Kaname began to suck swirling his tongue around Zero's dick.

"God…Kana…me…I'm…gonna…cum…!"

Zero tried to warn Kaname who ignored him and swiped his tongue across the slit at the head tasting the salty pre-cum.

"Kaname!" Zero screamed out shooting cum out and down Kaname's throat.

Kaname swallowed all that he could be didn't get it all there was a small trail dripping down his chin, Zero began slowly came down from his high. Seeing Kaname still sitting there with some of his cum on his chin made Zero feel hard again and he swooped down to level with Kaname's head pressing his lips against Kaname's pushing him down straddling the elder male still kissing fiercely. He began trailing kisses down the purebloods body till he reached one hardened nipple, his mouth latching onto it. This had Kaname arching up against the hunter, as Zero then moved across and began giving attention to the other previously neglected nipple.

With these actions Kaname was putty in Zero's hands, before he had wanted to gain control but now he was once again beneath the hunter, and the sinful mouth that just wouldn't leave his nipples alone, not to mention that his hands were sliding down his body. He was sure he would have remembered his pants disappearing but somehow that had escaped his notice, leaving both hunter and pureblood completely naked.

He shuddered as one skilful hand went to cover his erection slowly raping itself around and beginning to stroke it. Kaname lost all possibility of coherent thought as the onslaught of pleasure overcame him. After a moment he noticed that the mouth moving down him had stopped.

Zero now looked down at the wonderful pureblood he had as a soon to be lover, his delicate frame that still somehow showed masculinity, those deep crimson brown eyes, showing darker with lust, that sweet mouth that made the most delightful sounds. He swooped down again kissing Kaname deeply. Kaname melted into the kiss. His eyes snapped open when his mouth was suddenly removed from Zero's. He looked up seeing light silver tresses mussed and amethyst eyes darkened some what by lust and arousal, Zero was truly beautiful. He found fingers replaced Zero's mouth

"Suck" Kaname was only to happy to oblige coating Zero's fingers with saliva

Zero decided they were covered enough and slipped his hand down and one finger into Kaname's tight entrance Kaname moaned against the intrusion, Zero kissed him again

"Shh Kaname it's okay" Kaname hissed but the pain was slowly ebbing away and Kaname felt Zero push a second finger in and begin to scissor his fingers in Kaname kissing him all the while till he felt him loosen up and he then pushed a third finger in. Kaname whimpered softly Zero kissed him again.

"Sorry kana I'll take the pain a way I promise." With that Zero began to massage Kaname's walls then thrust his fingers, at first Kaname hissed again but was soon thrusting back onto Zero's fingers. Zero deemed Kaname ready and removed his fingers at which Kaname whimpered against the loss

"Sorry Kaname, this will hurt. I'm sorry." Zero then thrust all the way in Kaname screamed, Zero was so big, he felt like he would rip in two, slowly the pain ebbed away to be replace by the feeling of being filled. Zero waited a few seconds till Kaname adjusted to his size a little more and when he got a nod and a whispered

"Zero…please…move…I...need…more…"

Zero pulled back only to thrust back in going even deeper hitting that little bundle of nerves that sent Kaname writhing in ecstasy and thrusting against Zero's hips pulling him in deeper. Both could feel the pressure building up and Zero reached down and grabbed Kaname's previously neglected erection which was wet and slippery from pre-cum, he then began to pump it in time to his thrusts. Both came together, screaming one another's names. Kaname shooting his essence across both of their chests while Zero shot cum into Kaname's hole filing him completely.

Zero rested himself down slowly onto Kaname his now limp dick falling from Kaname's hole which was beginning to leak a little cum out. As they both came down from their high's Zero began to nuzzle his face into Kaname's chest.

"You know Zero, I really love you!"

Zero chuckled then whispered in his ear

"I love you back…Kaname"

Both now realized the fact that that they were both covered in Kaname's cum and Kaname could feel Zero's cum leaking out from his hole.

"We need to shower" Kaname said decisively he made a move to get up only to find he was trapped by Zero's arms around his body.

"Not before a kiss." Kaname sighed and kissed Zero who immediately deepened it and one kiss easily became three or four, before Zero allowed Kaname to escape to the bathroom, ignoring the sharp shot of pain which was quickly receding due to his pureblood healing powers, a delightful deep flush covering his face. A little while latter Kaname reappeared, with a towel slung round his hips.

"It's all yours Zero." Zero then went into the bathroom and proceeded to shower quickly. When he came back into the bedroom Kaname smiled

"There's some pyjamas here you can borrow."

"Kaname, I really should go back to the Sun Dorms"

"Please don't go yet, we have all night don't we." Zero smiled yes they did, and it looked a very enticing prospect to curl up with Kaname right now.

It seemed that only a few hours had passed when both hunter and pureblood began to stir. Zero flickered his eyes to the bedside clock and almost jolted from Kaname's arms.

"Shit! Its 5:00am I need to get back to the Sun Dorms!"

Kaname sighed "can't you stay a little longer?" He loved waking up with his beloved Zero, smelling his soft hair and running his fingers through it. Zero reached a hand up stilled Kaname's fingers.

"I really do need to go Kaname." he said regretfully Kaname sighed but allowed Zero to leave the bed and begin picking up his clothes.

"I'll see you at class change over tonight, right?"

"Of course, I need to protect you lot from the raging Day Class girls." This sent a sudden thought into Kaname's head

"Yuki…what are we going to tell her? Oh sorry Yuki but I kinda fell for Zero and somehow ended up having sex with him and now were going out. Some how I don't think that's gonna go down to well. And what about Alanna she'll wonder where you went too, won't she?"

"I don't know what were going to tell Yuki, but Alanna already knows."

"What! How! Why!"

"I don't know how she figured it put but she sensed something happened when I escorted you to class, and I ended up spilling the beans about it. But she promised not to tell anyone about it."

"Okay, but she better not tell Yuki, I don't know what to tell Yuki myself."

"Don't worry Kaname we'll think of something."

And with that Zero bent down and placed a quick kiss on Kaname's lips before pulling open the window and jumping down to ground level, Kaname rushed to the window to see the shadow of Zero vanishing into the shadows of the woods. His thoughts turned to himself now he had to think about what to tell Yuki.

Outside Day Class Classrooms the next day

Just before lessons begin

Normal pov

"Hey Zero where did you go last night, I waited by the meeting place before going in from patrol and you never showed up!"

"I…had some stuff to do so decided to head straight back to the dorms."

"You could have told me or Alanna-chan!"

"Yuki stop bugging Zero, I told you he be fine and that we should just go in, but no you kept fretting about whether or nor Zero had killed a member of the Night Class or gone into bloodlust!"

"Sorry, Alanna-chan I can't help but worry about Zero, he's like my own brother."

Alanna sighed "Well it's a good job the headmaster told us to come in because I was getting cold."

"Well I'm sorry, anyway we need to get to class now or were going to be late, come on."

The three went into class Yuki chattering to Alanna. Zero however was lost in thought

Zero's pov

When did they get to be such good friends? It must have been on patrol last night. Me and Kaname need to think of how to tell Yuki, it just isn't fair to keep her in the dark about our relationship. And Alanna seems to know Kaname from somewhere, but he doesn't seem to have any recollection of her.

Normal pov

Still musing Zero slouched into class, and made his way to his seat and prompted putting his head down to sleep on the desk top. To Zero the lessons passed in a blur which he didn't even bother trying to follow, he really needed to try and think of how to tell Yuki.

Then end of the school day

Class changeover

Zero was glad he had managed to avoid Yuki all day, he was sure Alanna was keeping her out of his way, she obviously realized he wasn't sure how to tell her yet. But now they had to keep back the raging day class girls

Alanna, Zero and Yuki were standing holding back lines of screaming day class girls as the gates opened and the night class began to file out. The girls pushed forward yelling their favourite's names.

Alanna's pov

Nearly safe as soon as Kaname's past me most of them will calm down. Finally! Here's Kaname now. Huh! What dizzy, so dizzy! What's happening? Darkness. Black. Everything's so dark.

Normal pov

There was a cry from the line of girls near where Kaname was approaching, which had Zero, Yuki and Kaname all turning to the sound. Alanna with her arms outstretched to try and prevent the rush of the girls was swaying slightly, then with any warning she simply crumpled to the ground. Kaname moved quickly towards her, followed by Zero and Yuki. Kaname outstretched one hand towards Alanna but as his hand made contact with the skin a sharp shock shot up his hand and he pulled away as if he'd been stung. Zero shot a concerned gaze towards his lover and reached down himself but didn't feel anything from the girl. Yuki looked at her fellow prefect before trying to place her own hand on Alanna's only to pull back as if she too had been stung

"Zero, what's wrong?"

"I don't know what's wrong. For now I'll take her to the infirmary. Kaname you'd best get the Night Class back to class."

"Your right Zero see you later."

"DAY CLASS, GET TO YOUR DORMS, RIGHT NOW!" Zero yelled and the Day Class scattered, as Zero bent down and scoped Alanna up

"Go patrol Yuki it's late, I'll let you know how she is, okay."

Yuki sighed but rather than fighting she simply turned and headed off on patrol, calling back

"I tell the headmaster what happened, Zero."

Zero began to walk to the infirmary, Alanna stirred in his arms "Jay"

huh thought Zero who's Jay?

"Alanna! Alanna!"

"Zero?!" she muttered before falling back again limp in his arms.

Crap, thought Zero.

There was now a strange sort of power coming from Alanna and her body was almost cold. The only sings of life were the soft rise and fall of her chest, which seemed to be getting shallower by the second. The last thing Zero needed was the girl to die on him!

He hurried ever faster to the infirmary. At the infirmary door he was met by Kaien Cross 'Yuki must have called him'

His suspicions were confirmed when Kaien spoke

"Yuki called me, she said Alanna collapsed at class changeover?"

"Yes Chairman, that's what happened, she just swayed a little then collapsed. Will she be all right?"

Kaien carefully took the girl from Zero and laid her on one of the beds

"Only time will tell, it's too early to say yet."

"What do you mean Headmaster?"

Kaien sighed, and whispered more to himself than Zero

"If only you wouldn't push yourself so much, you know that time is approaching. You won't hold out much longer at this rate, you really should release to curse."

Then he turned to Zero and before he could open his mouth he said

"You have patrol now don't you Zero, so patrol."

"But Headmaster, Alanna – there's something, not…right. Neither Kaname nor Yuki could touch her bare skin…only I could. And you…you kept your arms covered while you carried her. Why? And also there was a…strange…power, while I carried her AND she called out 'Jay' then 'Zero', just what's wrong with her?!"

"That's her secret to keep and reveal when the time is right. I can't tell you myself, it would break a very important promise I made to her, her parents and her adoptive parents."

Kaien answered quietly Zero sighed and turned to patrol himself, there was defiantly a big secret to do with that girl.

Meanwhile

Far from Cross Academy

In the deep dark swirling shadows of long since forgotten caves

"Celium, what is the meaning of this, I sense her powers stirring, but they seem to come from within the earth itself!"

"Umbra-sama! I can not say why, but I am sure she can tell you when we capture her."

"You have made progress in her location?"

"Not exactly but I feel that the powers we can feel will be stronger that closer we get so we simply need to move towards the strongest regions of power and that will lead to her. However I have bad news, that vampire can not have done as we had hopped, we really should have gone back and checked she had destroyed all of the family. Because there is defiantly a second presence, which means there must be another heir."

"I have only one other question, Celium. What progress has been made in finding the heirs to the other two ancient families?"

"One heir seems to have disappeared of the face of the earth-"

"WE THOUGHT THAT ABOUT HER UNTIL A FEW DAYS AGO!"

"wait, Umbra-sama, I also believe the heir to the final ancient family is close the her, if we go after her we can find them all, and she will surely lead us to the heir of the other ancient family, if he is still alive…mates do not stray far from one another for years on end, unless one dies. Then we shall hold all the ancient families' heirs and we may do as we please, our mission shall be accomplished, we can eradicate those pesky vampire and hunters once and for all."

"Surely you don't mean me, after all I'm a vampire too." A third voice came into the conversation as a dark chocolate haired vampire appeared, one blue and one red eye staring at the two beings before him.

"Don't worry Rido, you will have your cut, you and your allies within the council. All you want is your nephew and niece, am I correct? You can have them – unless the Kuran family turns out to be one of the ancient families, then we shall need them first. Though once they have served there purpose…you are welcome to them." Umbra let out a evil cackle of mirth

"Thank you, My Lord Umbra-sama"

End of Chapter 4

(translations of Umbra and Vita are in A.n. at the end of the previous chapter)

This was one crazy chapter to write, and I'm sorry to place Rido in a "bad guy" role, but he really lends himself to this part, though I might change him slightly later on (though that will be near the end) Also has any one got any ideas of who Alanna actually is yet? Because I'm really curious to know if I've made it to obvious or not, it should be coming clearer in the next chapter and the truth is to be revealed in the chapter after that, yes I do have a plan of what's going to happen in the coming chapters, despite how long it take me to update!

Finally Zero/Kaname lemon scene! Please let me know what you thought of it because it's only the second lemon scene I ever written (the first was Takuma/Senri in chapter 2).

Also I've put a time skip of a few days in, this is because I suddenly realized a lot was happening in only a few days and I need the have a few weeks passing in the next chapter so I might as well start with a few time skips now.

And as a final thing, I've started muddling up the honorific's a bit so I drop them where I'm not sure. Though in the scenes with Umbra/Celium (there isn't any meaning in her name, the name just came to me)/e.c.t, the reason Celium uses 'Umbra-sama' and the other use 'My Lord Umbra' or 'My Lord Umbra-sama' is because she is closer in statues to him than the others, basically it's about levels of power and how much further down that Umbra a person is. So I hope that doesn't get to confusing.

That's all for no as it's bout 5:30 am and I am dog tired

Please Review XD
