Chapter 14
Moonlight Festivities
A figure walked through the town with a long brown coat and long black hair.
He had a cigarette in his mouth and a patch over his eye.
Walking with his gun into the hunters town.

Mayu's POV
Zero and Yuki came to class rather late but I didn't question it. Yuki gave me a bracelet with the school symbol on it and I was wondering what they were hiding from me.
Yuki isn't good at keeping secrets and she was acting not like herself.
Zero was a it distant too.
I was worried but he didn't look as pale anymore.
But I still couldn't talk ever since the attack.
I wonder if Zero will continue protecting me. He promised me he would. But I hope I'm not a burden on him. I feel guilty just thinking about it.
I guess Zero does need time alone. I've been out for a couple of days, a week at the most, but still.. Did he really miss me?
~::~::~::~::~::~
Guardian Duties. 10:00 pm
This is so tiring~! Poor Zero and Yuki-chan, they have to go through this every day. And I do too now.
I sighed.
I was with Yuki at the moment but I wanted to go with Zero. I was using my spell at the moment and I had it floating around beside me. It was almost like a fairy. I giggled earning a strange look from Yuki.
I shook my head, smiling reassuringly.
She smiled faintly back. She then turned back to look at one of the giant windows behind her.
We only saw Kaname's back and smiled at Yuki. She really did love him. It was really easy to tell.
She then looked back at me to see me smiling and blushed deeply. "C-come on." She took my hand and we jumped off. I sensed a pair of eyes and assumed I was just paranoid. We continued looking around, I was so anxious to ask about her changes and what had happened. Including her injuries.
I left my note pad and pencil in my dorm. Sighing, I knew I'd have to keep my questions until tomorrow.
~::~::~::~::~::~
The Next Morning
"Hurry up you two!" Yuki yelled as we ran through the halls to the class. We we're late, and in a rush to get to class. We busted through the door and stopped to catch our breath.
"Safe!" Yuki managed to breathe out while making swiping hand motions.
Students chatted and it was giving me a headache.
"Did…something happen?" Yuki asked as we both walked up to a group of girls.
One of the girls turned, "Yuki, Mayu, did you know that a new ethics lecturer is coming?" She asked. Yuki and I looked confused and kind of astonished.
"Huh? In this time of year?" Yuki asked.
I think Yori went to her seat by now while I sighed, not wanting to hear, since they were a bit too loud.
I sat by Zero and he still seemed a bit distant so I left him alone. I took out my things and began doodling while putting my head in my arms on the table.
The door opened and girls looked in fan-girl mode while they all went to there seats.
He had long messy black hair with some sort of patch on his left eye. He wore some sort of suit.
This man looked almost like … him.
I shook my head. No. It isn't him. His eyes aren't dull but instead a pretty light blue.
Including he didn't have any vampric aura around him.
Students stared at him in awe.
He held a book on his shoulder.
"It appears you've already heard about me." He declared.
The teacher made his way to the front of the class room and set his book on the desk.
"I am Toga Yagari." He told us.
Toga Yagari? I'm sure Zero told me about him. He said he taught him how to hunt.
That was probably the first time cried in front of me.
~::~::~::~::~::~
Flash Back
Mayu and Zero were sitting in Zero's bed in his room.
He and Mayu were cuddled up in the blankets while they read a book together.
They were comfortable and there was a nice silence.
"Mayu." Zero whispered in her ear, causing the young pink-ette to shiver slightly. She looked up at his deep violet eyes and blushed.
"Hm?" She hummed as she laid against his chest. He sat the book down on his lap.
He ran his fingers through her hair causing the girl to snuggle against the boys chest.
"You do know I'm going to protect you, from now on, right?" He asked while resting his chin on top of her head.
She nodded and smiled a real smile.
"No beast will ever touch you, I promise."
She nodded then a question popped in her head.
She grabbed hers note pad and wrote down,
"Are you a hunter, Z-chan?"
He blushed faintly at the nickname and nodded.
"I had a teacher, he was committed to teaching so much he risked his life. His name was Toga Yagari." He leaned back against the bed frame and looked up at the ceiling. You could see a sad smile on.
"He lost his eye, to a nurse at my school who was transforming into a Level E me and Ichiru were there at the time. (He told her about him, their close, huh? ^~^)
If we weren't so naïve then…He wouldn't have gotten…" He croaked and held his mouth. Tears trickled down his pale cheeks.
Mayu looked up at him worriedly with pity.
She sat up and hugged him. He hugged her back as the tears ran down and wet her shirt. (PERVS! XD) It was a slight awkward hug but Mayu continued hugging him as she pet his silver hair. "Daijoubu." She cooed. (It'll be okay)
He calmed down a bit and Zero lied against her chest while he hugged her waist. (Lying down now)
He fell asleep and Mayu moved the book and note pad to the side table. She smiled and blushed then flicked the light off as he breathed in and out slowly. She was fine… as long as he was with her.. ( I know a bit over dramatic sorry =-=")
~::~::~::~::~::~
END OF FLASH BACK
I smiled faintly at the thought, wondering what had happened.
"And I'm taking over the ethics class from today." He spoke.
"Nice to meet you all."
"He's pretty cool." Yori said in her regular, monotone voice.
I nodded and Yuki nodded too,
"Yeah… but he's sorta…" Yuki looked up and I followed to where she was looking.
Zero looked as of he was in a shocked state. I scooted over a bit and grabbed his hand and squeezed it. He squeezed my hand back shakily but didn't look away from Yagari-sensei.
Z-chan…
"Instead of an introductory speech, I'll accept questions." Yuki and I looked up to the teacher and the hunter.
He looked back at the class and caught my pink hair. He looked at me strangely and it looked as if he were fangirling inside.
I smiled faintly at him which he returned with a nod.
(Let's just say he has a thing for cuteness, but it's his secret =.= Oooh~ (*c*)
A girl raised her hand , "Professor are you single?" She asked. Another raised her hand as other students began chatting, mostly girls, "Do you have a girlfriend?"
"You like personal questions, don't you?" He asked a bit amused.
I giggled. Boys and girls began asking over themselves, yelling out questions with smiles.
The class president then began spazzing out saying, "One question at a time!" I wasn't listening too much and focusing on Zero who was still shocked.
That was until one question in particular came up,
"Your right eye… Is that the latest fashion trend?" It was Nedeshiko..
Me and Zero froze as he clutched my hand tighter. I squeezed it lightly back.
Zero had enough. He stood up and pulled me along out of the classroom with him.
"Zero…?"
We began walking out of the room and I couldn't tell what he was feeling because of how his hair covered his face.
His hand was still shaky and I jogged over beside him, and squeezed his hand. He continued walking and didn't respond, but only dragged me along behind him.
We made it outside and I could here someone's footsteps behind us and I turned to see Yuki running to catch up.
"Zero! Mayu! Wait up!" She called.
"Come on Zero…!" She grabbed my arms to pull herself forward for a bit more momentum.
Zero stopped and we both looked forward.
Standing in the front of the gates was father. He was smiling with his pretty honey-colored eyes. We al stared at him wondering what he was planning now.
~::~:::~::~:::~::~
We were outside in town and Zero kept me close by, worried and very protective.
Yuki stretched, she was in her pink jacket with red lines running through her sleeve and front to back, with a dark blue shirt on. She also had a plaid blue skirt with black socks and light brown shoes.
"Being sent on an errand by the headmaster has it's perks, huh?" She asked. I nodded with a smile.
"Not really." Zero was in his light blue-ish white shirt and a dark blue line on the neck line. He also had a dark blue jacket on and green kakis.
He was carrying all the bags with his long slender fingers that made me want him to hold me (I feel awkward typing this =-=). I looked over to him and giggled. He made my heart skip.
His tattoo showed which he got when he was still around 13.
I was wearing a dark blue dress and a white neck vest (IDK =-= it's like those bibs, kinda like from Gakuen Alice but it's not a rectangle instead a circle like shape, here's the link to what she's wearing: images?q=tbn:ANd9GcR7-Bgmw7QYaZfAaxNQbzMPIIhzQPHT8sHJOjPrjg 1XZ850Skp_5w Click paste and go. If not listen to my sucky description), and a red bow. The shoulders puffed up and the cuffs were white two white buttons.
The dress wraps slimly around her waist and the skirt puffs out that stops around her thigh.
She also wears a black bow that separates a thick piece of her hair from the rest of her hair on her feet and legs she has black knee-highs with a stitched bunny on the side. It's a pink bunny with one x for an eye then the other is a button with a small stitch on the cheek and finally a red bow on the neck.
Yuki pulled me along saying, "Oh, Zero, Mayu, this way! This way!" Childishly.
I heard Zero sigh and I smiled. It's just like when we were kids.
Yuki and I were looking at a dress, that would look really pretty on her.
"This…feels like the way it used to be." Yuki mumbled.
"Hm?" I hummed.
She shook her head. "Nothing, come on let's go~!" She chirped.
We got lots of things for father and some things for us too. Yuki got lots of cute clothes for me and her both, including Zero. He didn't care though.
We then went to a café called,
"Negozio di caffe. Una Carozza." With a carriage on the sign. I sat by Zero as his arm was resting on the top of the chair and I snuggled beside him a little bit, but Yuki never noticed. He ruffled my hair then rested his hand on the top of my head.
(It's actually those fluffy seats that don't really look like chairs, if you've watched or went to Mcdonald's you'd know.)
Yuki got a large sundae which I don't even think she can eat. I got a couple of brownies and milk while Zero had coffee. He was really mature and that's what I loved about him.. I mean-!
I shook my head a little then ate my brownie.
"I'm digging in!" Yuki cheered.
"I wanted to eat salt-ramen." Zero complained causing me to giggle a bit.
Yuki froze.
"Hm?"
Zero continued sipping his coffee.
Yuki shook her head and continued eating.
"But I love sundaes at this shop, and Mayu loves their brownies." She argued while eating quickly.
"I came with Yori the other day…"
I'm not sure that's good for her health… ^^"
She had a stain of ice cream then began,
"Say, Zero…?"
"Huh?" He asked.
"Do you know that teacher?" She questioned.
Zero looked away and then moved his hand away from my head and rested it on the seat. I grabbed his hand and held it.
His lips curved into a scowl, causing Yuki to overreact.
"Oh, it's alright. You don't have to answer…" She reassured.
"But he's kind of scary…" Her voice lowered.
He opened his eyes,
"No he's actually…"
"Excuse me." A waitress walked up.
We all looked up.
"Are you a member of the Night Class at Cross Academy?" She asked Zero.
I was a bit shocked and shook my head frantically.
He wasn't a part of the Night Class! E-Even so I've been sensing a vampric aura around him. It's probably just a mix up!
…Right…?
Zero looked up a bit taken back by the question, and angered.
Girls stared at him and I clutched Zero's arm and glared at the girls including the waitress.
"So you are! And your girlfriend is rather cute~!" She chirped making me blush.
I shook my head waving my arms in front of me.
"I knew it right away!" The girl looked really pretty actually.
"You're different from the others, too bad your taken."
"U-Umm.." YUki said awkwardly.
"People in that elite class are exceptional …" She began
Zero then let my hand go and grabbed the bags.
"Excuse me…" Yuki said politely.
But she only went on and on, making me more and more angry, by the second.
I've never gotten mad before.. W-what's happening to me?! I-I want to..
Zero stood, "I'll be waiting outside." Then he left.
"All right." Yuki stared off after him and I watched him exit with worry.
"D-did I say something wrong?" She stuttered. I glared.
"Ah, N-no he's actually apart of the Day Class and he's not to fond of the Night Class." Yuki explained.
"O-okay then, sorry." She bowed, I continued glaring causing her to scurry off, Yuki never noticed I don't think. I walked over to Yuki and sat beside her pulling her sleeve, signaling we should leave.
She nodded, "Okay let's go." She paid and I wrapped my brownies putting them in my yellow bag.
We walked outside only to see no Zero.
"Zero…? Thanks for waiting. Are you okay…?" Yuki then realized he wasn't there.
We looked around, he was no where to be seen.
Worry rushed over me and I panicked a little. He could handle himself, but he wasn't his usual self ever since Yagari showed up, and including after that week when I was out, he's been acting strange.
"Zero?" Yuki's eyes searched around frantically.
We looked over to the right side of the store and right y the bushes were the groceries and bags.
Zero…!
"Come on!" Yuki yelled as she grabbed my arm, pulling me along as she ran. It feels like de ja vu all over again.
I hope Zero's okay.
We ran looking down every ally and street. While we were running her jacket got torn and I got a scratch making me bleed a bit.
"Ah, Mayu, I'm sorry! Are you okay?" She asked worriedly. I nodded and smiled. It was only a scratch, but what headmaster said wouldn't it attract-
I sensed and vampire and a pair of eyes. I looked behind me to see a vampire jumping off the roof.
Yuki must of sensed it too, because she took out her artemis rod. I yelped making my throat ache.
The Level E growled, hissed and smiled with it sharp fangs and red eyes.
It grabbed the rod and Yuki threw him back.
It smiled, it was him, but… not exactly… A minion.
"Hmm, so your that girl. He was right, your blood… smells nice. I want it." He growled. "Let me drink … it all."
Yuki froze in fear. I panicked and the vampire rushed towards us and a hand reached, grabbing the rod and hit the vampire pushing him back, piercing it's eye.
They were pale slender fingers, I recognized them immediately.
The Level E screeched and held it's eye.
"Don't just stand there, Yuki!" Zero's voice yelled.
"Zero…!"
The rod then began sending electric shocks, and it shot off the rod to Zero's hand.
"It seems Artemis Rod doesn't like me to use it…" Zero began.
I walked over and wrapped my arms around his waist hugging him.
He hugged me in a protective manner, my heart skipped some beats.
We looked forward to see him still clutching his face.
The vampire looked forward with a print of the tip of the rod on his forehead.
He snarled with large sharp fangs and red glowing eyes with black shading over his eyes. Yuki dropped to her knees.
"He's a … Level E?" Yuki asked.
I dropped to my knees beside her and nodded while hugging her.
Zero slightly gasped from what I could her and when the vampire was about to attack he got in front of us and was about to block it when.
The minion was cut into two and dust blew every where. "You Will Die." I was the only one to hear it.
Zero covered us and I decided to use my barrier. I put two of my hands in front of my blocking the dust from Zero, Yuki and I. I didn't listen to the vampires words and pretended I was fine, even though I was worried and scared inside.
The spell made me lose energy, but the light spell didn't take that much, along with others.
We looked up surprised to see both Takuma and Shiki there.
I blinked a couple times.
"Itai.." I rubbed my eyes a couple more times and got the dust out.
Stupid dust ^
Takuma was holding his sword (Mayu didn't have hers on her at the moment)
He put his sword back in his sheath, "Ichijo… Shiki…" Yuki mumbled a bit loudly.
Shiki looked a bit pouty which made me giggled a bit.
"All done." Takuma chirped.
"I wasn't really needed here…" Shiki continued pouting.
Yuki got up and Zero got in protective mode again
"Why are you two doing this?" Yuki questioned, even so it was quite obvious. I didn't think she'd be so naïve.
He almost killed us and he was a Level E.
"If you want to know…" Ichijo began.
"Come to the Moon Dormitory." He finished.
"I'll tell you all about it. The reason why we dealt with the Level E." He then walked away, but I knew he wanted something out of this too.
Yuki didn't know about the vampires tragic history, I was told my parents though. I never knew why or how they knew.
Maybe they were vampire hunters too.
I'll ask Zero later, but still.. Why do I sense the vampire aura around him…? Could he be one of them? What was he not telling me?
All these questions with no answers. I shouldn't bother him. I didn't want to, I guess you could say I was scared. But not of him. Of what would happen.
The dust was blown by the wind and disappeared forever in time. But that man. He was coming after me.
Would Zero still protect me then?
Would He?
~::~::~::~::~::~
Regular POV
It was night and the young pink head was making her way to the Moon Dormitories. Yuki persuaded Mayu to go and it took a while.
She didn't want Zero to find out and he would scold her ending in a lecture, and some hugs. (Which she wouldn't mind getting =~= Also you know happens before, Zero gives Yuki a gun she refuses blah blah, he's hot! *q*)
She has her little light ball following beside her, making Mayu not feel so alone, even though it won't take, it's comforting.
She made her way there to see Zero and Yuki there.
'Huuu~ Zero-chan's going to upset with me~' oo
She thought, she saw Yuki and Zero talking with serious faces and the brunette was holding something. She cocked her head then dimmed her light. She could here only a few words like, "Fight … Won't need …. Pistol." And the rest was indistinct. She had a pit of jealousy bubble inside along with some urge. An urge to.. Hurt something. She shook her head.
'No, this isn't like me. What's happening.' A sharp sting pierced through her head and she clutched it.
Mayu gained her composure when yuki called.
It only echoed and then she finally heard it.
"Mayu!" She yelled making her wake up.
"Ah." Mayu began.
"Phew, are you okay? You weren't answering and stood there." Yuki looked at her with worry and Mayu nodded.
"Uhuh."
"Well, looks like your talking again... Sorta.
Are you sure you still want to go?" She asked.
The pink-ette nodded her head.
Behind her was Zero looking just as worried.
"Mayu.." He began. She shook her head and put on a fake smile, that she was used to doing sometimes.
His eyes softened and he looked away.
"Come on." He turned and glanced back.
They nodded and began to walk beside him.
You could faintly see the gun sticking out of her pocket and Mayu got worried.
~:::~:::~:::~:::~:::~
After the encounter with Akatsuki and Aidou popped out and weapons were pointed at their heads and throats (Aidou-throat-Yuki Akatsuki-Gun-Zero).
They were escorted to the Moon dorms.
It was full of vampires and they were chattering amongst themselves, but Mayu paid no attention to them. She gave off a nice aura, you could say which calmed the vampires, but made them hungry.
"This way." They followed the cousins and the two girls peeked over from behind.
"Huh?" The girls said together and froze with confused faces.
It was Takuma smiling brightly saying, "Welcome, Yuki, Kiryu, Mayu-chan~" He chirped with sparkles. (GOD NO IT'S TWILIGHT! o)
Behind him was a feast with a huge four layered cake.
"I'm having my birthday party tonight." He began.
"Please have fun." He finished.
"Oh, we didn't come here to play." Yuki explained.
Mayu's childish side took over, "Huuuu~" She whined tugging at Yuki's sleeve.
"I want to here about what happened today." She told him trying to be nice.
Mayu pouted because she ignored her causing a certain pureblood to chuckle softy and smile.
"Oh.." He said with disappointment.
"Umm… Why did you destroy the Level E?" She asked, seriously.
Yuki was explained about why they killed it and pureblood rules.
They talked about lower vampires who were once human, causing Zero to flinch.
Mayu and Yuki were given a orange drink, maybe orange juice? I don't fucking know, don't ask meh! :l(
Anyways sorry for breaking the wall.
They continued talking and Zero was given something different. A red liquid. (Since he can't take tablets I don't know what he got!)
"I ordered it." A purebloods voice spoke.
The three guardians looked over to Kuran who was leaning against the pillar.
He was in a white suit with white pants and a black shirt, which showed a bit along with his chest.
"Huh?!"
"I told Ichijo and Shiki to hunt down that Level E today." He said bluntly.
Kaname said he was surprised that the two young girls came, simply because of what Takuma had said.
"Come over here, Yuki, Mayu, Kiryu." They were taken back by the order but complied. Takuma took their glassed and Mayu thanked him.
Her voice was getting better, which was strange since her vocal cords were ripped out half-way.
Her personality changed a bit too and she wasn't acting like herself too much.
She had a strange, violent urge.
But Mayu ignored it.
The pureblood knew this too.
He sat down on the elegant couch and leaned back.
The three walked up in the stairs. It was a bit awkward.
"Yuki and Mayu sit next to me." Kaname ordered again.
Mayu and Yuki stopped surprised at what he was requesting.
"Huh?" Yuki questioned embarrassed.
"Would you?" It wasn't a question, it was an order.
"It's all right." Yuki said not aware by what he wanted.
Mayu blushed and fiddled with her fingers.
"Yuki… Mayu…" He said sternly.
Yuki complied with embarrassment then sat down.
Mayu chuckled nervously.
She and Zero leaned against the railing.
"Mayu." The pureblood spoke a little irritated.
"Ah, a-ano.." She looked over to Zero who looked away, ut she could tell he was angry.
She sighed then her blush deepened while walking over to the other side of Kaname.
He had a small smirk and wrapped an arm around Mayu's waist and one hand on Yuki's shoulder.
Mayu blushed and slightly whined.
"Next to me is the safest place."
They looked over to Zero who quickly looked away, wanting to avoid the scene.
The young pink haired girl felt a tug at her chest and looked after him worriedly.
Kaname noticed this and only grew angry but didn't show it.
"Umm… I-I've been wanting to thank you." Yuki started out nervously.
"In all honesty they shouldn't be born." Kaname stated bluntly.
The three guardians flinched. Yuki and Mayu looked up at the pureblood.
They began talking about the vampires as Kaname explained the past of vampires.
He rubbed Yuki's arm making her flinch and blush and then gripped Mayu's waist letting his hand travel a couple inches further also making Mayu blush just when she calmed down.
Some of the Night Class flinched with jealousy.
He continued explaining an of course Mayu knew this from Zero.
Well except the more angrier and twisted version…
Kaname had also told her about this too, with a nicer sad version, not that Zero wasn't nice about it, his goal was just to scare her into never talking to Kaname again and have her running to him… Good plan, right?
Kaname then reached over to and grabbed Mayu's arm she scratched which was actually deeper then she thought.
Yuki's arm was healed, but she was jealous that Mayu got his attention, yet she wanted her sister to hurry up and heal, so Yuki just watched awkwardly. ^^
"On occasion it means ending their lives." The vampire finished.
The gauze unwrapped and Zero appeared in front of him.
:It is the duty of the vampire hunters to hunt vampires." Zero spoke coldly.
"Then why didn't you kill that Level E first?" The pureblood asked irritated.
Zero's eyes widened and Mayu got confused.
"Hm?"
"This si the injury that you sustained?" He asked Mayu. She nodded and blushed slightly
"I will.. Erase the pain for you." He told her.
She blushed more deeper.
Zero told her about the purebloods powers and he could either put hand on it and heal it, or kiss it.
He kissed it making Yuki flinch and she began getting confused. She didn't know what purebloods possessed. Nor the powers.
He leaned in not giving her any time to ask anything and kissed her arm.
She flinched and blushed, knowing Zero was watching.
Mayu slightly whined and closed her eyes not wanting to see Zero or the pureblood.
"Did you perhaps sympathize with him, Kiryu?" He asked.
The pink-ette got more confused.
What was he not telling her?
Mayu looked up at Zero with confusion and slight hurt. Zero and Mayu told each other everything. So what was he keeping from her? Why would he?
Zero pulled his gun out at him while flinching before pulling it out.
Mayu could tell he was offended and didn't want her to find out.
She would hate him, or worse. She would be frightened. That was the last thing he wanted. He promised to protect her. Even though he couldn't protect her from himself, was it best to let Kuran have her?
"Zero!" Yuki screeched turning towards the hunter. (added it in)
No. He wouldn't give up. He'd rather die.
Seiren on instinct brought her sharp nails up to Zero's neck.
"Seiren … It's all right." Kaname spoke while he gently held the pink haired and, blue eyed girls hand, hovering.
Yuki and Mayu looked over to the brown-eyed pureblood.
"I'm then one who said something I shouldn't have." But in truth the vampire wanted her to continue and kill him.
But not in front of Mayu and Yuki.
The ones he tried so hard to protect, but he had Kiryu.
He would never betray them, and that's why he couldn't kill him either.
Seiren brought her hand down and Zero did the same with his gun.
"Pointing a gun at Lord Kaname…" Aidou began, in a murderous tone while crossing his arms.
"Tearing you apart limb by limb is too good a punishment." He seethed.
Mayu looked over to the ice user in disappointment sending a pang of guilt into his chest.
He had feeling towards the girl but he ignored them, she belonged to Kaname, but he didn't know how long he could keep it in.
Zero looked over and glared while Seiren stared at him with her bored look.
"I won't do that. As long as we're here in this academy. I don't want to shatter Headmaster Cross's ideals of peace." The blonde spoke out, gaining Mayu's attention and an happy, approving look.
The human was controlling his emotions and he had to shake it off. He would not let the human toy with him.
Yet how long will he pretend? How long can he keep it in?
Aidou decided to gain his pride back by speaking again, this time a threat though, "But do not forget…" He un-crossed his arms.
"We vampires are here at this academy solely due to the presence of the Pureblood, Lord Kaname." He spoke with confidence.
(Here comes the no fucking duh, Yuki, moment =-=)
"You are a Pureblood… Kaname?" Yuki asked, surprised, while turning to the vampire.
Mayu of course thought she knew, after all these hints.
The first one she should have got immediately when Takuma said they were ordered y Purebloods to hunt and kill them.
Then when Kaname said he ordered them, it's pretty simple and obvious.
"You're expression tells me it's the first time you've heard of this, Yuki."
(SHE'S BLONDE I TELL YA! I HATE YOU FUCKING YUKI, GO DIE! :( -cough- Sorry.. Well if your reading this fanfic anyways, you might hate Yuki anyways soo~ No flames about that please? O^O)
"Are you afraid?" He asked her.
"I've always been… a bit afraid of you…Kaname." She answered, looking down in a bit of guilt.
"Even now… Although just a little bit."
He nodded then slightly turned to Mayu, "And you… Mayu?" He questioned, hoping for a good answer.
She looked up and looked into his eager eyes.
Mayu smiled at him then shook her head.
Yet Mayu didn't know about what Yuki had seen.
Kaname sighed and nodded with a faint smile, making Yuki look at them not so sure, and a it awkward with jealousy stinging through her.
"Hello! Please don't forget , everyone. It's my birthday today! Celebrate me, please." Takuma chirped trying to lighten up the mood.
"Yuki, Mayu and Zero are my special guests."
The crowd sighed and continued with the party.
~::~::~::~::~::~
"It's been four years." Yagari began as he stood in the headmasters office.
"I never thought I would still see him alive." He looked at the picture of Yuki and Zero which was taken on the first day of high school.
"The one in the photo with him is my Yuki and Mayu~." Headmaster chirped.
"They are very capable. I've given Yuki, Mayu, and Zero the task of keeping an eye on the Night Class."
(Mayu is capable with all her spells and abilities.)
Yagari scoffed and flicked the picture away.
"A Level E wandered into town today." He told him.
"Hmm… You did your job?" Cross asked.
"No… someone eat me to it." The hunter spoke in disappointment.
"My, my … I wonder who it was … That saved the town." The headmaster smiled pretending to be clueless.
"Don't play dumb." Yagari knew it, he couldn't fool the hunter, and he was irritated by it.
"I know that it was someone from the Night Class. They call it duty but they just see it as a sport. We the Vampire Hunters are the only true hunters of vampires." He spoke with seriousness.
But that didn't stop Cross's childish act.
"But it's forbidden to kill them without a reason." He whined.
"Besides, why have you come here?" He asked, a bit curious.
"Your not the type to obey anything the Hunter's Society's orders."
Yagari grabbed his hat and set it on his head.
"It's an oath I made…"
"That passionate oath we made to each other…" The headmaster mocked in a microphones, he got from…somewhere.. His ass? I dunno.
Yagari looked over to him while Cross had on a dumb grin he's always had on and Yagari got pissed~
"OWWW~" Kaien howled as he was beaten and pounded.

Mayu's POV
I sat on the couch a bit awkward. The vampires danced elegantly and some of my friends from the Night Class, looked as if they had an urge to ask me something, but I wasn't sure what.
They chatted and talked as Kaname sipped his drink.
Probably a blood tablet.
Vampires let their dates sip the drinks and it was really awkward for me!
I blushed and hid it as best as I could with my sleeve.
My injury didn't hurt anymore as I touched it and glanced over to Kaname. I quickly looked away, he looked really beautiful.
Yuki looked over to Zero worriedly, making me curious and my chest pulled a bit.
"Shiki shall we cut?" I looked over and saw Takuma holding a knife with Shiki beside him looking bored from what I could see.
He nodded but I wasn't sure if he responded.
"Hold it for me, Ichijo." Shiki ordered but more like asked him.
Shiki took the knife, sliding across his finger and for some reason I smelled something.. Strange.
Blood, maybe?
Takuma raised his hand saying something indistinct from the chattering.
Shiki took his finger and licked it.
"Shiki, I have no intention of serving myself." Takuma spoke. He avoided my gaze and looked a bit embarrassed.
Zero ran and I watched his retreating form, as I stood slightly with Yuki, only to be pulled down by Kaname with his hand.
"Kaname, I…" Yuki began then ran without saying a word.
"Yuki-chan~" I whined worriedly.
"I'll be right back! Stay here!" Yuki yelled out as she left.
She was caught by Aidou.
"Yuki-chan, want to dance with me?" He chirped but not his regular self.
"Oh, I…" She got out of his grasp and ran.
"Hmm." I hummed with concern.
"Daijobu, Mayu. I want to enjoy your company, do you mind?" He asked kindly as he raised my chin, making my vampire friends freezing slightly, from the corner of my eye.
I blushed deeply and looked away.
"Ah." I nodded a bit, but still worried, for her and Zero.
What happened? And what's happening to me?!
I was so confused.
The pureblood in front of me smiled sweetly and then wrapped his long arms around my waist and pulled me against his chest and nuzzling in my hair.
"S-senpai..." My blush deepened, if that was even possible.
How come he was like this around me and not Yuki-chan? How would Yuki feel if she found out? I didn't want to tell her, and have her be hurt, nor have her be mad at Kaname.
But if I didn't tell her… and she found out… She would feel even more hurt.
What do I do?!
I knew Kaname saw my worried and uneasy face through the flustered one.
"What's wrong… Mayu?" His deep voice rumbled as my head rested against his chest.
I shook my head.
"N-nothing…" I muttered.
He knew something was wrong but didn't push the subject any further.
"Care to dance?" He stood and stretched his arm out to me.
Then the song came on. The song Me, Yuki and Kaname danced to, when we took turns.
Just as I calmed down, I blushed faintly and nodded shyly while taking his hand, I still had my blue dress and had to rest for the rest of the day, because I felt sick.
He led me down the stairs and then we got in dancing position.
We began dancing, but I was still worried.
We continued dancing and I was passed on to my friends. Once we finished dancing people clapped as I blushed and Kaname brought me inside.
We stood by a large window and he brushed a stray hair away from my face.
I looked down with a blush.
"K-Kaname-senpai.." I squeaked shyly.
"I-I have to-" I moved away and that's when I heard a gun shot.
I gasped and "Wha-!" I began only to be cut off by soft lips, pressed against mine.
Kaname held me, pulling me closer, and muttered, "It's okay." As he continued kissing me.
I was stunned and didn't know what to say or do. I shut my eyes tightly, blushing madly.
What was going on?!
