-Strip poker?

I looked at Takuma. He sure can confuse people.

-Why do you want to learn how to play that?

-Curiosity.

-Oh.

I pulled Aidou and Kain.

-C'mon, I need you two.

-What for?

Aidou asked while a cute face.

-For strip poker.

-For what?

-You'll see.

A few minutes later.

-You lost again, Hanabusa.

Kain sighed.

-I'm not taking my trousers off!

-You have to! Those are the rules!

Aidou already lost his shoes, socks and both his shirts. Takuma took only his shoes off, while Kain and I didn't lose anything.

-Why are you complaining, Nora? You didn't lose even once!

-You are not following the rules!

-Well, why don't you make me follow them?!?

-Fine.

I jumped onto him, trying to take off his trousers in the process. I gave up after Aidou rolled on top of me. I heard Takuma laugh, and Kain chuckle.

-What's so funny!?! Aidou, get off of me!

-You two don't know how you look.

My attempt to push Aidou off failed. Then I heard the door open. Someone burst laughing. I looked up and saw none other that Dimitry! Yes, I just needed that perv on top of all this!

-Oh, he's ONLY a friend, huh?

Dimitry teased trough gasps.

-You are SO dead!!!

-Yeah I am… When Aidou let's you go. Don't let go, Aidou!

-Aidou, move or I'll make you move!

-I will if you promise not to hurt Dimitry.

I groaned.

-Fine, fine. I promise. Now LET GO!

He moved aside. I instantly jumped up and ran after Dimitry.

-You promised, Nora!

-I'm not going to hurt you! I'm just going to change your looks!

-You are mean, Nora!

We ran out of the room and down the hall.

-There they go again.

Kaname sighed.

-Kaname-sama, should we stop them?

-You could try, but I doubt you'll succeed.

Aidou looked at Kaname. It was weird for Kuran to act like that, well everything was weird around Nora!

We ran out of the Moon Dorm. Then I stopped. I noticed something was wrong. I looked around me. Then my breath stopped. I couldn't breathe!!! I looked in Dimitry's direction. He was pretty far away. I struggled to say something to catch his attention.

-You are a tough one.

A cold voice said from behind me. I turned around with a lot of trouble. My legs gave out. All I could see was a tall person with a black hood catching me before I fell. Everything went dark. Wait! I could still feel the person! It seams that I was carried. I tried to open my mouth to say something. Then I felt air on my lips. Now!

-STARLIGHT!

I yelled with the rest of my strength. I suppose the person was shocked, because the moving stopped. I put all of my effort and opened my eyes. Everything was bright, but not because of the Sun, but because of a big, silver dragon. I smiled.

-Impressive.

I looked at the voice source. The person was a guy around my age, his hair was red as blood. Though his eyes were the amazing part. They were pure green and seemed to glow.

-You could summon that even without your witchcraft. You truly are amazing, Nora.

He put me on the ground.

-However, I don't intend to fight you. I'm here to talk. To tell you the facts, to be exact.

-Wh-o a-re y-you?

I tried to speak with my broken voice. It was obvious I didn't have enough energy to talk.

-Don't speak, ok? I don't want you to hurt yourself.

I looked at him surprised. Why is he so kind? He just kidnapped me!!! Then he chuckled.

-I didn't mean for it to look like that. Though, you aren't leaving those vampires, so I

had to take you away to talk to you.

He can read my mind?!? He smiled again.

-Yes.

I blushed. PERVERT!!! This caused him to laugh.

-You never change, do you, Red-eyed?

My eyes widened. Could he be?

-I am Ricardo the Wishmaster.

I glared at him. What? Then he is an enemy!!! He smiled again.

-No, I'm not your enemy.

Wow, I wonder. I rolled my eyes. He took his hood off. I saw a spiky necklace around his

neck.

-They control me with this.

He pointed at the necklace.

-You know in your heart that I would never hurt you.

No way I'd believe him! But maybe he is… WAIT! NO! HE IS AN ENEMY! Ricardo looked hurt.

-Well anyways, the thing is. I am the door and you are the key. Dimitry is the gate keeper. He has to let you unlock me and let the demon out. There is no other way. Keep that in your mind, ok?

I nodded.

-Thanks, Rick.

He looked surprised.

-You got your memory back?

I nodded.

-I can't walk. Can you help me?

-Sure.

He smiled and helped me up.
