CHAPTER 4
"So here is the picture of my son, Zero and my daughter, Yuuki" the chairman handed her the picture of Zero's and Yuuki's that is taken at Cross Academy in their first year as high school during the cherry blossom season. In the picture Yuuki looked happy as usual and Zero looked solemn as always. You've changed so much Zero over the years, she says quietly in her mind. She chuckled bitterly with an overwhelmed of emotion that enveloped her. With tired eyed she says silently in her mind , heh you're not the only one.
The chairman stop his stupid rambling for awhile and start to looked the teenager in front of her. no girl with her age should look like that….. he says silently in his mind. I shouldn't have let you go on that day…. But from now onwards I will protect you. With a look of determination in his eyes he silently prayed that the girl will open her heart once more to him and for other as well for her own benefit.
"Oh my dearest daughter, Ka-chan are you hungry" the chairman says so happily like they won a lottery ticket. Something snaps suddenly in the girl mind " Oi! Kuso - jiji I'm not your fucking daughter!" all her emotion that enveloped her just now turn to anger. Her eyes turns deadly like a tiger stalking his prey. The hyper active chairman just ignores her he act's like nothing happened. He just looked at her with his idiotic eyes like a kid asking his father to buy him a puppy.
She sighed. She does not come all the way here just to pounce on this idiotic chairman. She breathes in and breathes out to control herself. She didn't come here just to have fun with this idiotic chairman. She open her eyes and try to calm herself, she look at the chairman straight to the eye and say " Tell me Cross sensei how can you let two chipmunk to take care a 50 clutch of chicks against a pack of wolves?" The chairman looked at her like she says something weird.
"Huh chicks…. Chipmunks?" the chairman show his idiot face in front of her. She just glares at the chairman. She know that the chairman know what she really means. He just tries to avoid the subject at the moment. She give a look like a mother caught her son in a very trouble situation to the chairman. The chairman felt like a temperature drop suddenly. He can feels his hair at the back of his neck stands. Her cold icy aura surrounding him.
The chairman laughed awkward like to the girl in front of her. She just glared at him and give him the look that tells him I can do this all night. The chairman laughed nervously at her like a new employee laugh at his boss bad jokes just to lighten the atmosphere. " Ma ma ma….. Kac – chan don't look like that?" the chairman still look at her nervously. " Here have a tea I made this for you" he handed her a cup of tea in front of her.
She stood up from the chair that she just sit and fold her hand to her chest. " Do you really think I come here just to have a cup of tea with you?" She just glares at him. She look at him and demanding a straight answer for her question. The chairman placed the cup on the table in front of him. He know what she just meant the two chipmunk was referring to his two adopted children ; Zero and Yuuki and the chicks and the wolves is referring to the Day class and the Night class student. He know what she really says that how can you let a hunter and an average high school teenager take care of the students against the a group of noble vampires. He know she have a point there. But he truly believes his dream and juuri's dream and of course Kaname –kun dream will come true you just gonna have a little bit of hope.
" So you would rather see this world have a bloody battle of human against vampire than?" he says with a look like a mother tell her children why she always come back home late to her home to find a job to support their family. The girl just stands all her pent up emotion just now was somehow diminished instantly. She know who he really is, he is the Legendary hunter who have lived for over 200 years. Of course he is not a vampire. But the amount of vampire blood in him allowed him to live longer than usual compare to a human being. Not only that, his strength allowed him to be as strong as a pureblood also he doesn't age and cant die naturally like a vampire, that's why he is known as the "Vampire without Fangs".
Even she could tell he is tired of killing vampire in his live now. The way he said just now with tired look in his eyes. He just want to live somewhere peacefully where vampire and human can co-exist. He want to live normally with his family. Without the interruption of the Hunter Association.
"I should have never let you left with him." He says to the girl with guilt in his eyes. The girl just looked at him and says " Even if….. you…. ". They were interrupted when they heard a noise just outside the house. She sense a presence of a human and a human turned vampire. She looked at him and say "Nothing will change everything that has happened that night. Even if its you". The chairman looked down at his feet. He give up to say anything right now because it is not the right time to say it.
She walked towards the front door to leave this place and never come back in her. The headmaster only clenched his fist at his sides. The girl open the front door and saw a shade of silver in front of her. Then she feels the barrel of the gun pointed to her forehead. In all her life being a hunter herself she will never ever forget the feeling of an anti-vampire weapon is being directed at her. like right now.
The next thing she knew the gun was fired in front of her. the bullet was fired out of the barrel. In just a split second the bullet was shot at the wall Headmaster Cross was leaning on. The bullet was just on top of him. The distance between his head and the bullet was just less than 2 cm.
In her hand was just a crooked butter knife. Kasumi looked at Zero straight to the eyes and said " There's a better way to say hi you know… Zero".
Her long silky black hair was covering her face makes it hard to recognize her. Zero positioned his gun upwards, the barrel of the gun was pointing to the ceiling. But still he never let down his guards. Just like a true hunter when facing a dangerous vampire. Kasumi straightened her body to looked at the person. So that the person before her can recognized her. making her long silky hair moved just right to surround her face.
Zero looked closely at the hunter in front of him. The hunter has a silky long black hair. She wore a long black overcoat that extends just above her knee. Her eyes has the darkest shade of blue that almost black. The dark blue that you can see in the deep depth of the sea. Around her waist there's a holster for holding a weapon. But strangely as it is there is no weapon. Meaning that there's a weapon around here somewhere in the room.
" If its not much too ask, I would really appreciate if you point that gun of yours to the ceiling," says Kasumi. Zero did what the stranger in front of him says. But as a true hunter he is, he didn't let down his guard. No hunter would never ever let down their guard especially when facing an unknown opponent especially in front of him. Just know the hunter just deflect his bullet with just a butter knife in just a short minute of time. This guy is dangerous. If I let down my guard in front of him, worse thing will happen especially with Yuuki. He noticed that the shade of blue this hunter give a feel of familiarity in him.
" Thank you." Says the strange hunter. Even know he still cant recognize the strange hunter. " Who are you?" ask Zero. " Why as you can see I'm a hunter such as yourself" says Kasumi, with a snicker behind her smile. " Stop being stupid and avoid my question" counters Zero harshly.
" Well then take a wild guess? " Zero look closely at the hunter in front of him. Those eyes, those hair…. Could it be? Says Zero quietly in his mind. His eyes widened for the strange hunter in front of him. He wore a shocked expression on his face and he silently whispered " Kasumi Onee-chan"
The strange hunter smiled widely for the first time since his trip just now. But her eyes still wore that sad and tired look in it. Zero just ignored it for now. He wont ruin this eventful moment. He will ask later but just not now. Its nice to see someone he now when he was little. When his mom and was still alive. And he and Ichiru was still… no no this is not the time to think about that.
While Zero and Kasumi were in their own world. The chairman was still shocked of the bullet that was shot on top of him.
" Wow, I never know Zero has a sister" Says Yuuki whilst mixing a bowl of Caesar salad that Zero make for their unexpected guest. Zero and Yuuki were in the kitchen cooking for the party. Kasumi and the chairman were in the living room were putting the plates on the table.
" She is not my sister, she's just a the daughter of my parent's friend's" says Zero while he cutting some vegetables for the steak to add the seasoning in it. As the celebration for the guest Zero are making some western food. Zero still remember when he and kasumi were little she really love to eat western food. Especially some steak with barbeque sauce.
"Whoa... is nice to know someone from your early childhood" says Yuuki with sadness in her eyes. Zero scream a thousand curses in his mind for saying that just now. He know that Yuuki was desperately trying to remember her early childhood. That time when he, Yuuki, the Chairman and Yagari sensei went to the Hunter Association to checked her history at the archives. In the archives there were thousands of report made by the hunters. Reports about the Level E's. Guilt dwelled in him like a moth completely attracted to he light. " Yuuki i'm sorry.. i don't mean to" says Zero with guilt in his eyes.
"Ehhh... why? you say nothing wrong" Yuuki know how bad does her beloved partner really feels. She just doesn't want him to feel guilty especially the thing's he have done anything at all. But still she feels grateful to have someone care for her.
" Heii... Zero can i try that please" says Yuuki pointing at that knife there, where Zero were cutting the vegetables. " Yuuki, do you even remember the last time you ever use a knife except the table knife" says Zero. He know what Yuuki really doing , she's trying to change the subject so that he stop being guilty all the time they talk about this.
"Wait! Yuuki stop that"
" Relax Zero i'm an expert with these"
" I don't want you to get hurt"
" Relax, what the odd's me getting hurt by cutting the vegetables"
Slash... beautiful crimson colour, colour's her fingers down to her wrist.
red crimson colour appear in his eyes
so seductive that beautiful magnificent that sinful elixir
DON'T! Not now.. have you prove enough what kind of a monster are you. When you suck her blood countless time to regain your insanity. Zero uses all his strength to fight his inner demon. But all was lost when he hear her whispered that seductive tone " Zero please don't fight it! i'm here when you need it" she put her bloody fingers in his mouth.
She feel his fang's protruding her wound. More blood came out from the wound. But his tongue lick the blood from pouring down to the wrist. Her face redden by his actions. She was going to close her eyes, but something told her to look up. She tilt her head upwards she saw something that completely capture her eyes.
Light crimson eyes looked at her straight to the eye. But its sometimes change to that soft amethyst colour that always look at her, watch over her when she's tripped. Those eyes that can only belong to her most beloved person in the whole world.
Aaaaaaaaaa... i should not be afraid this is Zero.. He wont do anything to me that can hurt me. Zero is different from that Level E that night when the first time i met Kaname - sama. His crimson eyes were long gone by then when she notice that Zero dropped her hand returning to her side. He continue working and act like nothing happen.
" The steak's are gonna burn you know" says Zero pointing to that burning pan at the burning steak on the pan.
At the end of the corridor far from the kitchen. A figure was leaning over the wall. Red crimson eyes was seen and elongating fang was seen. A black line was moving from her back to her neck. Hard breathing was heard along the corridor. Don't fall ! Don't fall! she screams silently in her head. Don't fall to that insanity again please! she silently repeat those word in her mind over and over again. Like a mantra that can save her. Even if it's futile to pray but at least she fight's for her own insanity.
