I am here with yet another chapter of 'Lost Soul'. I have every single chapter of this story planned so at least I know what am I going to to at each and every chapter. It will be a lot easier for me to update now.

I want to say that I made an account on Deviant Art. The link can be found on my profile but just in case my penname is RedBloodMoon. I already posted all my Kaname/Zero stories there and some of my other stories as well. Let's hope that I don't get kicked out of this website but if I do then you can find my work there.

Moving on. Here is another chapter and I hope that you all like it.

Disclaimer- The day that I get to own Vampire Knight will be the day when pigs learn no fly...unfortunately

Chapter 4

The wind was very soft at this time of day..er...night. It was not hot nor cold. It was of the perfect temperature for the sleeping Day class students and the awake Night class students. The moon looked a lot like a sparkling fingernail high in the sky surrounded by a thousand of fireflies. The weather was very pleasant this night. It felt uneasy somehow. The atmosphere around the place was very strange.

Kaname paced back and forth in his room. His eyes remained slightly closed as he followed the same routine over and over again. His hands were hidden in the pockets of his uniform, seeking warmth that he did not have at the moment. The room was completely silent right now. No sound from any living being or even an object could be heard.

Knock, Knock, Knock

The silence was broken by that sound. Kaname looked up at the closed door.

"Who is it?" he asked whoever was at the other side.

"Kaname-sama. Is me" came out Aido's voice.

"Come in"

The noble did what he was told to do. With a twist at the doorknob he entered the fancy dorm and walked right where his leader was waiting.

"Do you need anything, Aido?" Kaname asked.

"Not at all. Takuma sent me here to check on you" Aido said with all respect.

"I don't need anything at the time, Aido. You may take your leave" Kaname instructed.

The blonde nodded and made his way towards the exit. He did not know that he was being followed by a certain pureblood vampire. He noticed once they were at the living room, when a strong hand took hold of his shoulder and spun him around.

"On the other hand I have a special request that you can do for me"

"What is it, Kaname-sama?"

"Aido, do you mind finding some information for me?" Kaname asked the blonde noble.

"You can ask for anything, Kaname-sama" the blonde replied.

"I want you to find as much as you can about gems. Gather every book you find and give it to me" Kaname ordered.

Aido stared confused at his leader.

'Why would Kaname-sama ask for those kind of books. He has never been interested in jewelery before' Aido thought.

Of course when a pureblood asked for something the noble or any other lower rank vampire had to obey. They could not deny a single order or they would receive a great punishment.

"I will await for you at my dorm Kaname" said before disappearing into his own room again.

Kaname was now resting at the comofrtable couch at the living room. He was sitting in his usual post, arms folded in his chest. He was completely alone, all of the other nobles were searching for Kyriu while Aido did what Kaname ordered him. He was not going to search for Zero until he knew a little of what he was dealing with.

Aido walked towards the living room, a large book in his hand. It has written 'Vampiric gems' in the cover and in the back. The color of the book was a beautiful aquamarine blue with fancy designs all over it. The book cover was strong as well. It was one of the most rarest book in existence.

Aido spotted Kaname at the couch and walked towards him.

Aido said, catching the pureblood's attention. I found your requested information

"Bring it here then" Aido handed Kaname the book.

He sat on the couch at the other side of the room and eyed Kaname as he rapidly changed from page to page, looking for something specific. That is until he reached a specific page.

'Soul Amethyst'

Kaname began reading the article.

'This specific stone contains the beauty of both amethyst and diamond combined as one. The insides of this stone allows to seal away memories, granting one vampire to replace them with new ones. The new memories can be made up or they can be memories forgotten by the user, depending on the situation. The amethyst has to be placed were the heart is suppose to be located for it to work. While the process takes place it needs to drain out the soul of an user, driving he/she in a comma state. The process is complete once a year, when the moon turns crimson red. This gem is considered one of the rarest and most dangerous in vampire society and must be used only when needed.

To break the effect that the stone has on a vampire is not simple or hard. A special someone to the user of the stone needs to put him/her back in place. However, this person must be really close or it cannot work. Not even a pureblood can break the effects if it is not close enough to the user. The effects of the stone become permanent after one year. Once the year has gone by the stone can be removed and the user will remain with the false memories...'

Kaname stopped reading at that point. The unfamiliar feeling of fear took over Kaname at the thought of Zero's soulless soul for an eternity. He shook his head. He would not allow this.

Aido watched as Kaname kept starring at the book. His expression was a thoughtful one. Whatever he read had a big effect on the pureblood. Kaname closed the book shut and placed it at the little table besides the couch.

"Do you need anything else?" Aido asked once more.

"Nothing else at the time"

Akira his behind the nearest bush he could find, eyes starring directly at his prey. A noble woman was sitting on the clean floor of the building. The building was abandoned but it's beauty still remained intact. The noble woman was clearly unaware of her surroundings, brushing her emerald colored hair with a peaceful smile on her features.

Akira took a step forward, not making any sound at all, and held his breath so that the woman would remain unaware of his presence. He licked his lips in anticipation as he got nearer to his prey.

When the woman finally noticed Akira's existence it was already to late. A hand covered her mouth, chocked screams could be heard but not so far, and fangs were not buried deep into her flesh. Piercing into her jugular vein Akira fed from all her life-force. The blood tasted very sweet. She was a noble after all. But no blood could be compared to his beloved Zero's blood. He has never had a big taste of Zero's sacred blood but the simple scent of it was able to drive Akira insane.

Akira pulled away, the noble turning into ashes in an instant. Akira needed more. he had an burning ache in his throath and one simple threat was not going to satisfy his needs.

"No blood compared to yours, Zero"Akira said into the air, a gentle breeze swept those words away.

Akira's vampire senses were now taking in a new presence. The noble's family was near by. He could a;ready feel it. Hiding into the same corner as before Akira awaited for the family to arrive. The poor vampires will soon be joining their beloved woman. Akira will make sure of that.

Kaname returned yet again to his dorm. He was feeling quite tired already after hours of searching. Aido is still looking. Kaname told him to rest but the noble insisted on keep looking So Kaname just said nothing and returned to his dorm, laid in bed and let his mind wander off in a peaceful slumber

Dream

Everything was white. Not a single trace of any kind of object was around. The only thing Kaname could see was Zero, sitting in the middle of the lifeless room.

"I was waiting for you" was how Zero greeted Kaname.

Kaname said nothing, eyeing every single inch of the already familiar room. He has never been in a place like this before...well...besides the previous dream. It's strange how Zero's consience can be so empty at the time. He knew that the ex-human must be thinking a lot of things so an empty mind and consience was just illogical.

"I can see that" Kaname replied to Zero's comment.

Have you decided to help me or not? Zero asked. He was not so sure in the last meeting. Their connection was somehow interrupted and he did not give Kaname a chance to reply He was now desesperate. He needed to get out of his own mind now. It was too much.

"Of course I will. It's not everyday when you see Zero Kiryu begging for help"

Shut up, Kuran Zero gave one of him famous glares to the pureblood. You don't know how is like to be trapped within your own mind. I don't know how can I even communicate with youI wonder that as well. It doesn't matter though. The important thing right now is for you to tell me who has youKaname watched as Zero's expression changed from angry to confused.

"Didn't I tell you the last time you were here?"Zero remembered telling Kaname very clearly. Maybe his mind was playing tricks with him.

"You did. However, I only heard the first part of the name. 'Ak', if I recall correctly, is what I heard. I'm sure that's not the complete name, right?"Kaname asked.

Zero nodded.

"His name is Akira. He didn't tell me his last name so I can't say it"

Kaname was now deep in though. The name was very familiar. He has met a few Akira's in his entire life.

Akira Fujimori- CEO from the 'Fuji Mart', a store made for both vampires and humans. The purpose on the store is thanks to his goal for vampires and humans to co-exists. He is over a thousand years old and Kaname can always count on him.

Akira Kouno- Noble vampire known for his wisdom. He always gave advice when needed and always liked to help purebloods, nobles and level C and D vampires. He was killed in a blood purge caused by an army of Level E vampires.

Akira Suzuki- Noble vampire and sometimes business partner with Kaname. He is always by Kaname's side when the pureblood needs him. He likes to travel around the world and make deals at all sorts of places. Even though he was never born human he likes to keep in touch with an 'human' side of himself.

Akira Seguchi- Pureblood vampire. He comes from the lesser ranking pureblood line: the Seguchi clan. He fell in love with an human and thus he was rejected by his family. He once came to Kaname asking for help but Kaname was in some other business at the time. Finding out that his parents went mad and tried to kill the love of his life he destroyed them first but the human got turned into a vampire. Being persecuted by the Vampire Council it is unknown about his were abouts.

Kaname's thought were drifted away by a pale hand waving in front of his face.

"Kuran, you still there?" Zero asked the spaced out pureblood.

Yes. I think i may know who did this to you. I'm not so sure yet Kaname told Zero.

"Tell me now!"Zero yelled at the pureblood.

"Is..."before Kaname could finish a pair of hands appeared in the floor.

"What the..."Zeo said before he was taken away to a different part of his soul, leaving Kaname alone again.

Kaname shook his head at what just happened. He will never understand Zero's mind...or soul. Heck, even Zero did not understand himself at times. All left for Kaname to do was wait. There was no other choice. Tomorrow night he would tell Zero the truth. As for now, he would go back to his own dreams.

TBC...

This chapter is finally finished. It was suppose to be uploaded five days ago but my computer crashed. They had to delete every single file on my computer and re-program it to I had to re-write this chapter. I only have WordPad at the moment so it was hard for me to write this without any spellchecker. At least this website seems to take WordPad.

Here is the preview for all of you

Preview

Akira began chanting, amethyst light surrounding him before he found himself in a complete different room. It was so full of doors and it had a mysterious aura.

"So this is Zero's soul"he said to himself as he began to wander around.

He was completely fascinated. Zero was full of enjoyable memories, but none of them were the ones he was hoping for. There were sad memories as well, some from his own family. Akira wanted nothing more than to go back in time and make it all stop. He knew he couldn't and it pained him to admit it. He decided to ignore those memories and got back to wander around.

End Preview

That's all I will give you for now. I think that you will be very surprised once you know a little more about Akira. I want to say that I got this whole story planned out. It will consist on 26 chapters and it will not be completely about Zero's soul being taken away. There is so mcuh more than just that.

Reviews are really appreaciated and cherished.

Love,
