Curiosity Killed the Secret.
A/N: I'm so sorry it took a long time to make this chapter, I've been having so many projects, and exams, I barely had any time to myself. D:
JennaRinslet11: I'm sorry you felt bad, you might be a little scared in this chapter, but it'll go by quickly I promise :) Lol I know! I couldn't remember his name either, I kept thinking that Klaus was his middle name or something and Santa was his frist name XD. And the quote you made for my story will come up very soon, maybe not this chapter, but most likely the next one or the one after that. :D
Cream-Pie13: Lol I can't remember Klaus's last name either, I had to look it up to make sure I had the spelling right XD
skressshun: Thank you! I'm sorry it took so long to update, I had a long two weeks with work and work and work being assigned to me DX.

-Alice's POV-
I couldn't help myself.
I needed to know.
Currently, at 3:34am, I was jumping from tree to tree in the direction of a medium sized dojo in the middle of nowhere.
Why me?
Finally, I came to an instant stop when Shun, and what appeared to be his grandfather yelling at him.
"FASTER! YOU HEAR ME BOY, YOU'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO BE A GREAT NINJA LIKE ME!" He's caregiver yelled.
"WELL MAYBE I DON'T WANT TO BE A "GREAT NINJA" LIKE YOU!" Shun recoiled.
"YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT!"
"SHUT-"
"HUSH BOY, CONTINUE."
Shun grumbled angrily, and did as he was told.
Eventually, his suffering came to an end at about 4:50am; I didn't want to know what time he started training at.
I watched through the windows of his house as he went passed them. He practically led me to the far right corner with a huge Oak tree beside it, probably hiding himself from all his 'fan girls.'
I jumped on that mysterious Oak tree and looked through his opened window.
"Shun are you sure you want to do this?" Skyress asked.
"I have to Skyress, sh-" Skyress cut him off.
"You don't have to do this, you want to do this." Skyress emphasized on the 'want.'
Shun still turned on his laptop.
"She could be being abused; no body's body temperature could possibly that cold." He tried to reason.
"You shouldn't be prying into her life though Shun, maybe she's secretive for a reason." She said in a motherly tone.
"I can't help myself… I just want to know that she's alright." Shun's voice softened.
"You've only known her for a couple of days though Shun, don't you think you're jumping to conclusions?" Skyress persisted.
"It doesn't feel like I've known her for a short time, it feels like I've known her forever, yet she's still a mystery to everyone." Shun drifted off.
"Shun." Skyress said solemnly.
"What?" He turned to look at her.
"What if… What if she's not who you think she is?" The Ventus Bakugan asked.
"What do you mean?" Shun asked curiously.
"Ah… Never mind, I'm going to bed." She went into her sphere like form, and Shun knew that the conversation was over.
He stared intensively into Google Search, as if it would give him the answers he needed without having to type in everything in detail.
After a few minutes of realizing nothing would happen he signed and slowly typed in "B-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l-l-y P-a-l-e G-i-r-l W-i-t-h C-o-l-d S-k-in."
Shun looked unsure about this, he looked like he was rethinking what Skyress had told him. But in the end he took a huge breath and clicked the Search button.
Links such as "The Cold One," and "Immortal," came up and my breath was caught in my throat.
Don't do this to yourself Shun, I'm not worth it.
Shut off your laptop.
Don't click anything.
Forget about me.
I was begging silently in my head.
I watched in terror as he clicked "The Cold One."
Within half an hour he'd seen everything from "The Cold One," to "Speed," to "Immortal."
My whole world was coming down at this very moment, and I couldn't help it anymore.
"Shun." My voice echoed through his room.
He looked around feverishly.
"Alice?" He replied.
"Put the laptop away. Get some sleep okay?" I didn't reveal myself, keeping myself in the depths of darkness.
"Come out." He said sternly.
I took a deep breath and jumped from the tree branch into his room.
"I'm out." I looked at him with pity.
He stood up to approach me with his hand out to touch my face.
I took a step back.
He looked hurt, "How'd you get up here?" Shun asked, putting his hand down by his side.
"I… You know." I looked away from him.
"Know what?"
"You know what…"
"Alice how old are you?" He asked out of the blue, and I knew instantly where this was going.
I exhaled quite loudly then looked out the window.
"I'm 17 Shun." I whispered.
I sensed him tense even though I wasn't looking at him.
"How long have you been 17?" He asked unevenly.
It took me a few minutes to answer; I knew there was no way to save Shun now. He did it to himself. He exposed himself to something I might not be able to protect him from.. Unless… No… I can't…
"A while." I said blankly.
"I know what you are." He came up to me and held my arm.
"You're abnormally fast, and you have ice cold skin.." He added.
I looked at Shun's amber eyes dead on. "Say it."
He didn't answer.
"Out loud." I said.
"Vampire." He's eyes didn't change emotions.
"Are you afraid?" I asked.
"No." He said gently.
"Even if I did this." I stood up and put my opened mouth against his warm neck.
"I'm not afraid." He said sternly.
"Well, you should be." I said solemnly.
"I know you won't hurt me." He said matter-of-factly.
"Will I not?" I laughed bitterly.
I started to crawl along objects like a monster.
The next thing Shun knew I was on his door.
"As if you can out run me." I said bitterly.
I appeared behind him.
"I'm designed to kill." I said keeping my bitter tone.
"You won't hurt me." He said trying not to act scared.
"I know you won't." His normal voice still remained intact.
Maintaining my bitterness I said. "It's because you believe the lie. Shun. Everything about me draws you in! My face, my skin, my hair, my eyes, even my scent draws you in."
I dropped to the floor hugging my knees.
"I'm scared of myself. I'm scared that I'll lose control of myself. I'm scared that I'll drink from the source… I'm scared that…."
I was cut off by Shun hugging me, and patting my head.
"Shhh shhh. It's okay, nothing bad is going to happen to anyone." Shun said comfortingly.
"For now.." I whispered.
We stayed like that for a while, with Shun asking me questions about the supernatural world. I tried to ignore him at first, but there's no way Shun can escape me now. He tied himself to me in more ways than one. So I told him what he wanted to hear.
Dawn started to break, and rays of sunlight were shinning throw his window. Shun instinctively tried to cover me from the sun. I put my hand on his shoulder.
"It's okay. It won't hurt me." He slowly moved out of the way and saw how my skin seemed to form millions of tiny diamonds.
"I told you… I'm… Different, than other vampires." I said solemnly.
"You're, beautiful." He said in awe.
I laughed bitterly.
"It's the skin of a killer Shun, it's a consistent reminder of what I am." I whispered.
"I don't care, you're still beautiful." He persisted.
I eventually gave in. "Thanks."
"Anytime."
"I must be going now, Grandfather is probably wondering where I am." I said.
"Your Grandfather, is he… A vampire too?" Shun asked curiously.
I signed, and looked out the window, of which I entered from.
"Yes Shun, he is, but unlike me, he's a full-fledged vampire." I answered his pending question.
He nodded, and I was about to leave when I felt two strong arms wrap around my waist.
"Are you going to be in trouble?" He asked.
"I'm going to Hell. But I wouldn't worry about me, I would worry about you. The world isn't as friendly as it seems. Humans are often blinded by their sense of security, and sense of thinking that "their" the "top" of the food chain. So watch out, and remember, nothing is ever as it seems." I answered.
He let go of me. "I'll be cautious."
I gave him a wiry smile. "That'll give me some peace in mind."
Giving Shun one last look, I jumped out of his window and ran back to my house.
I was applying sunblock when my Grandfather came downstairs and paced me a cup of Negative B.
"You're here early Alice." He stated.
"I couldn't find a lot stuff to keep me occupied last night."
More like I was too busy explaining the darker side of the world to a certain raven-haired boy.
"Oh one of those nights, I see."
One thing I liked about my Grandfather was that he never floated.
After drinking my cup of blood, I headed out towards the school.
The wind blew my hair out of my face, as I looked down on the pavement.
Mythology Class will be entertaining today…
I kept having flashbacks about how I climbed and crawled along Shun's walls, and how I yelled bitterly at him.
I felt guilty for being so inhuman… Being a monstrosity.
But he needed to be scared. He needed to be aware. He needed to frightened. Because will never see the world normally, the way you should, ever again.
You've intertwined yourself to me more than in one way Shun. Be prepared, because of what's coming… I'm not sure if I can protect you.
A/N : PLEASE REVIEW! I'll try to make my next chapter a longer one since this one is pretty short compared to my other chapters :)
See you next time! :D
