I do not own Vampire Knight. Hope you guys like this chapter.

Chapter 9

In the shooting range. Victoria, Yuuki, and Zero were all at the shooting range. Victoria and Yuuki plugged in their ears. Victoria wore a bandage around her neck so no one can see the fangs around her neck. The whole time Victoria thought about what Kaname said

'I wonder, since when...I can only hope whatever it is you are trying to protect will not hurt you in return.' Victoria canfeel eyes on her so she looks up seeing Yuuki and Zero staring at her.

"Exactly how long do you two plan on standing there?" Said Zero. Yuuki stops looking at her sister and looks at Zero along with Victoria.

"But we're worried about you."

"Are you okay now?" Said Victoria. Yuuki looks at Victoria with a confused look. Zero looks at her but than looks down.

"It must be tough...being my guardian." Said Zero.

"How are you feeling?" Said Yuuki. Zero didn't answer her all he did was shot his target. Zero cut the paper in half with his bullets. 'Amazing.' Victoria thought as she saw the half torn paper then looked at Zero.

"Looks like you've never been better." Said Yuuki.

"Quit bandaging you neck like that, Victoria." Said Zero. Victoria looks at him. "It stand out too much."

"But I have to do this!" Said Victoria. Yuuki just keeps looking at Zero and Victoria listening to their conversation. "If I use a band-aid, then someone like Aidou-senpai could take it off." Yuuki's eyes started to get wide. 'Wait. Was Victoria bitten by a vampire again?' Yuuki thought.

Victoria touches the band-aid. "What if someone were to notice..."

"Like Kuran Kaname?" Victoria looks at Zero. 'Huh?' Victoria thought. "If you were going to have your blood sucked anyway. I'm sure you would rather it have been Kuran Kaname instead of me, right?"

"Eh?" Said Victoria.

"I can tell from your blood." Said Zero. This time Yuuki's eyes were wide when she finally realized where there conversation was going. "It tasted that way." Said Zero.

"It's really perverted somehow!" Said Victoria as she put her hand on the handle on the door. Victoria opens the door. "It's like you peeked into my heart! I don't like it!" Victoria starts to run out of the door ignoring her sister calling her name.

In the shooting range

'Victoria...' Yuuki thought as she looked at Zero. "Zero, I know that you are vampire, but while you two were talking it seemed like Victoria gave you her blood."

Zero looked at Yuuki shocked.

"You mean she hasn't told you?" Said Zero. Yuuki only shakes her head left and right.

"No, but I think I know why. She doesn't want the people she loves involve including me, but I know that she is offering her blood to you, so you won't fall into a Level E." Said Yuuki. Zero looks at Yuuki with wide eyes. Yuuki starts to walk at the door but stops.

"I don't agree with what she is doing, but..." Yuuki paused and looked at Zero. "This is her decision and I will always be their to support you, and Zero..." Zero looks at Yuuki that opened the door still making him face her protect. "Help me protect my sister, and don't drink to much blood so she won't faint again." Yuuki walks out of the shooting range to go find her sister.

'I still wonder who really is the oldest.' Zero thought as he looks back at the shooting range and started to practice again.

Back to Victoria

'You didn't need to tell me.' Victoria thought. Victoria starts to run to the couch and lays herself down on it. Hitting her head on the pillow. 'For the importance that Kaname-senpai's very existence hold for me...is one that I myself know best. And yet...to have done something like this to Kaname-senpia...and Onee-chan...' Suddenly Victoria's heart started to beat really fast.

"Will you betray them?" Said a womens adult like voice. "Will you close your eyes? Do you intend to consign everything unto oblivion?" Victoria starts to sit up.

'I...I...' Victoria puts her hands on her head.

"I'm scared." Said little girl's voice. "The scary vampire is going to eat us."

"Innocence is evil." Said the women's voice. Victoria suddenly started getting really scared. "You turn your eyes away from the truth, not realizing the foolishness of it all..." All Victoria did was shake her head left and right and hears the little girl going 'I'm scared' over and over.

Victoria's POV

"I understand. I will take care of these girls." Said the headmaster. "After all, you are the son left behind by the one who once took great care of me."

Me and Yuuki were little children who didn't pay attention all we pay attention to was the food in front of us. I just played with it, and poked my finger in it. Kaname was in the middle, Yuuki was on his right and I was on his left.

Headmaster sees me and that I poked her finger in the pudding. "They don't seem to realize that pudding are meant to be eaten."

"Yes." I looked at the boy next to me. "Yes, they appears to have lost all of their memories." Kaname turns to me holding the spoon. "Use a spoon to scoop this up." He says as he takes some of the pudding on the spoon. Me and my sister both see that sharp teeth when he says this to me. "Here, open your mouth."

"Reality cannot be changed." Said the women's voice. I suddenly just stare at the boys mouth with fangs.

"What's the matter?" Said the younger version of Kaname. "Here, open your mouth." I didn't listen to him I just got closer to him as I touched his sharp fangs I suddenly remembered about the vampire that was going to hurt me and my sister.

I heard scream that was next to the boy. I saw my sister covering her mouth with her hands eyes suddenly wide with fear. I got off the couch dropping the pudding and went over to my sister holding her. I looked at the boy, seeing that he was suddenly standing up.

"I think it would be better if I were to no longer appear in front of these girls." Said Kaname with a little hurt in his eyes. Kaname turn to look at the headmaster. "I shall return now."

"Return?" Said the headmaster. "You mean, to that place? That's the den of the demon who has been trying to use you since your parents passed away, though." Me and my sister looked at boy. I looked at my sister that didn't cover her mouth or with fear in her eyes.

"But I must return." Said Kaname as he was turning around. The boy looks at us. "Goodbye."

"That boy told me: "All girls are born princesses." I never did listen to the headmaster after all I did was stare at the window with the snow that was falling with my sister until he said.

"Victoria did you know that your name was actually a queen's name from England." I listened to the headmaster this time. "But you are still small and not old enough to be a queen yet,plus you are a little sister and seem more like a princess, so...little princess." The headmaster looks at me and my sister.

"Are you worried about what's outside?" Said the headmaster. We never gave him an answer. "It's okay." I didn't listen to him because the only thing that was on my mind as well as my sister was that boy.

The headmaster made a great feast for me and my sister telling us he made the official adopt papers for us to be his daughter, but I already knew. Me and my sister didn't listen to him again all we did was stare at the window again. He said that he will be our father starting today and we was very happy.

He wanted to call us him father but I was the only that speak to him when we are alone since he knows I am not from this world, but my sister only takes a glance at me and hugs me when she is lonely. She didn't talk for a week, and never saw that boy for week either. The little gesture my sister makes always makes me happy but I feel bad that I talk to him with Yuuki or talked to that boy.

I was in my room that was next to my sister when I heard someone laughing and someone saying my sister tried to put on clothes by herself. I walked over to my sister to see the boy and the headmaster going frantic. I see my sister and I start to laugh as well seeing at how silly she looks.

Kaname, headmaster, and my sister all see me laughing as I walked to my sister still laughing. There was a blink it over my sisters head. I can see that she wanted to see the boy too.

"Victoria..." Said my sister. Kaname and Headmaster looked at Yuuki surprised then looked at me.

"O-O..." My eyes started to get sad because no matter what I couldn't talk in front of my sister with the headmaster. My sister saw this and decides to hugged me. The boy wanted to come over there and hugged her as well but he knew that they they were afraid of him.

"I'll take my leave." Said Kaname. When I heard that I decided to walk over to him and pull on his coat.

"Kana..me? O..Onee-chan?" I said looking at the boy and Kaname. I started to smile saying their names over again with soft eyes.

"That peaceful and gentle period." Said the women. "It was both hope...as well as sin."

Me and my sister went outside with the gloves, boots, and coat waiting for Kaname. Headmaster told them to back inside since it was cold out there, but once Yuuki and I saw Kaname they started to run to him giving him hug both saying

"Kaname-sama!"

"Kaname...-sama?" Said Kaname.

"Today is our birthday!" Said Yuuki.

"Kaname-sama saved us one year ago today." I said.

"That's why...congratulations, Kaname-sama!" We both said with a smile on their face.

"You're mistaken, Yuuki, Victoria." Said Kaname. "The one who should be congratulated today is you two." Said Kaname as he was already patting Yuuki's head, but his hand landed on my head looking at me soft eyes. "But, thank you." He leans down hugging me and my sister.

'This is so nice.' I thought. He suddenly kissed my forward as me and my sister looked at him with smiles.

"The heart fabricated from lies...The kindness that continues to flow...And the sins that continue to accumulate..."

In middle school it was the time were I read about Vampires and Vampires Hunters. My sister's hair was cut short, and my hair didn't reach to my middle back, because I like long hair I decided to make my hair only to pass my shoulder a little a bit.

"Kaname-sama is a vampire, right?" Said Yuuki.

"That's right." Said Headmaster. Headmaster looks at me and sees that I am still reading the book of vampires but covers the title so Onee-chan doesn't it. "The government keeps the existence of vampires a secret from the public...That's why you and your sister must also keep it a secret."

I stopped reading my book and walked over to the window still seeing the snow that falls.

"Secret"..." Me and my sister both say.

"Even though it's supposed to be a secret," Said Yuuki.

"Kaname-sama let me touch his fangs." I said. Yuuki and the headmaster looks at me. "Kaname-sama is..."

"completely different from the scary vampire, right?" Me and my sister said in unison again. Headmaster told us that there are some vampires that we will get along with but there are others that we might never do. Headmaster gives us hot chocolate and I continued to read my book.

I started to walk in town in the snow on my own for the first time without my sister

"The special days of each season...The limited number of meeting that were allowed...The blissful moment ...The fading turth.

"He has to come through here to get to the house." I said. I looked around. 'Kaname-sama still isn't here? Of course he wouldn't after all he is here for Yuuki not me.' I gave small sad smile just thinking about it. That's when I realized he should be here it already getting dark. In front me I saw a vampire that should me its red eyes kept thinking it will eat me.

What I didn't know was that Kaname was behind me and the vampire in front of me bowed and walked away. I turned around and saw Kaname.

"Victoria." Said Kaname with a smile.

"Kaname-sama!" I said giving him a hug and a smile. "Why are you here? I thought you wanted to see Onee-chan?"

"I thought you were afraid of walking in the streets I wanted to see you." Behind Kaname I saw my sister run up to me calling my name and telling me that she was worried and run after me. I looked up at Onee-chan and Kaname.

"As long as Kaname-sama and Onee-chan is with me, I'm not scared of anything." I said with a smile. Kaname just had his eyes wide and patted my head. I see my sister with soft eyes and a smile.I started to hug my sister then went to Kaname to give him a hug.

"Neither am I." Said Kaname.

"Innocence is evil. Reality cannot be changed. Time...cannot be stopped.

Me and my sister start getting ready for the fire place when the headmaster starts calling our names. We run to the door seeing him with a boy name Kiryuu Zero and his family was murdered by vile vampire. I saw the hatred in his eyes.

When everything got settled I walked to the guest room with the fire place in it seeing that he is scratching his neck.

Zero's memory

"Zero-kun... What are you doing?" Said Victoria. I looked up at her.

"It's really disgusting. I can still feel...the touch of that women." I said.

"That must be painful." Victoria said as she was looking at the scars I made on my neck. "Stop it."

She grabs my hand with both of her hands.

"That women" is the one who did those horrible things to your family, right?" Victoria said. "She also did horrible things to you, right?" She put the back of my hand on her cheek and her other hand touching my cheek. "It's okay." I was surprised as I looked at her. "I will always be here for you. It's really okay."

I touched my neck with the tattoo on it still remembering her word that day. 'It's like you peeked into my heart! I don't like it!'

Victoria's POV

Once Zero was in the house the next night after that. The headmaster wanted him to be sure about something started to head for the door. Yuuki was pulling on someone to hurry. She asked many questions and she had a smile on her face. The person patted Yuuki's head. That when I recognized who it was.

"Kaname-sama!" I said. Kaname started to walk in. I ran to him giving him huge, he just smiled at me rubbing his hand on my head like he did with my sister. I completely ignored the fact that Zero had displeasing expression. I looked at Zero seeing his eyes going wide.

I see Zero suddenly holding a knife.

"No, Zero!" I said spreading it wide open to protect Kaname, but Kaname pushed me back behind him as I see Zero put the knife through Kaname's arm.

"Vampire!" Said Zero with hate in his eyes.

"Kaname-sama!" Me and Yuuki both said.

"Attacking someone the instant you meet them... How rude." Said Kaname.

"Shut up, vampire!" Said Zero. "You smell the same as that women!"

"That women?" Then, you must be Kiryuu Zero-kun." Said Kaname. "What happened to your family was truly a shame. However...I have no intention of allowing myself to be killed by you." Kaname pulled Zero off him and pulled the knife showing nothing on it. After the whole thing all I could think about was Zero.

I go to Zero's room. "Zero? I'm sorry. I should have told you about you alright? Zero?" I started to reach my hand towards him when he slapped it away yelling at me.

"Don't touch me!" Said Zero full of hate. "Not with hands that touched him."

"Kaname-sama saved me and my sister from a scary vampire." I said. "He's a really kind vampire."

"You, your sister and the Headmaster are all crazy." Said Zero. The headmaster told us about the Day class and the Night Class and why he is doing this and what the students will be doing. He said that the Night Class will be a class full of vampires.

Zero suddenly started to stand up dropping the book on the floor, and his hands in a fist.

"What are you planning to do, inviting those things here?" Said Zero. Zero was full of rage couldn't believe that vampires would be in class with humans. Kaname started to tell everyone about vampires and humans can coexist in peace.

"Kaname-sama." Said Yuuki as she runs up to him. "Good evening, Yuuki..." Kaname looks up at sees I almost starting to shake. "...Victoria?" Zero, Yuuki, and the headmaster including Kaname all look at me.

"So then vampires will be in a class." I said hugging myself. "Kaname-sama I know you are trying to help vampires coexist with humans, but..." I look up at Kaname almost tears in my eyes. 'The reason why I was crying was because one day in my world my cousin was almost about to die because she was bullied by what it seems like people with red eyes, and the day were everything in my world changed from that moment, and I never wanted that to happen.'

"Victoria..." Said Yuuki as she looks at me. Kaname starts to walk past Yuuki and heading towards me ignoring Zero's death glare. Kaname started to hug me, as he did I stopped trembling.

"Sorry." I said. Kaname shakes his head left and right.

"You only worried...about the people you care about. Thank you." Said Kaname.I closed my eyes in Kaname's arms. I suddenly hear Zero saying this is stupid and that vampires and human can't coexist. Headmaster and Zero started talking but of course I wasn't listening I was only feeling the warmth from Kaname.

Now

Nobody's POV

Kaname headed to were there was water and rocks outside saying Victoria's name.

Victoria was siting on the couch looking up. 'I don't regret my actions. That was what I thought, but... I can tell from your blood.' Victoria started lay on the couch the pillow on my head. 'What are vampires? Can they know the feelings of others through the taste of their blood alone? I wonder, since when did you stop telling me everything...'

I looked up touching the bandage on my neck. 'Since when...That's right. That day...'

Victoria's POV

'...something changed.'

I walked to the teachers' dorms with my sister holding hands in our elementary uniforms with Zero.

"The teachers' dormitory over there," Said Yuuki.

"shouldn't be in use, right?" I said. We said looking at Zero.

"Until the entrance exams are completed and the covenants signed, they're using it as the temporary dorm..." Said Zero. "for the vampires. Don't go near their nest."

'So Kaname-sama is also there?' I thought.

Me and my sister walked to the teachers' dorm that is going to be known as the Moon Dorms wearing comfortable clothes. We opened the door to only see a boy with blond and green eyes.

"Oh, if it isn't Yuki-chan, and Victoria-chan." Said Ichijou. "Did you come here to see Kaname-sama. Unfortunately, he's out right now."

"Eh? Um..." Said Yuuki.

"Excuse me, do you know about us?" I said.

"Yup, I live with Kaname, so I often give him rides to your guys house." Said Ichijou. "I always see you two from the car, tightly hugging Kaname. Well then, goodbye, Yuuki-chan, Victoria-chan. Go back to bed. Even if it's within the school grounds, you guys shouldn't walk around at night." Said Ichijou as he closes the door.

"Even though he told us to go back," Said Yuuki.

"We're already this close to seeing him. Just a little while." I said. Yuuki nodded as we started to open the door and head inside the Moon Dorms.

"It's really cold outside, so please allow us to wait in here." Said Yuuki. We went to stairs and sit down waiting for Kaname.

"What is this? A thousand-Question survey?!" Said Aidou. Me and my sister looks up and sees other vampires coming out. "This Headmaster Cross guy must have a really bad personality. And he actually asked us to hand it in by tonight?!"

"Who told you to answer it truthfully?!" Said Akatsuki.

'A vampire who intends to answer a survey truthfully...How weird.' I thought as me and my sister starts to laugh a little. The vampires that was walking stopped and looked at me and my sister. My sister started to stand up and bowed, I only laughed looked at them and nodded my head a little, then looked at my sister.

"What are two human children doing at a place like this? Sisters even?" Said Aidou. "They both are looking this way. Could they be a fan of mine."

"They are laughing at you." Said Ruka. "Don't you dare cause any trouble before school starts." They started to walk away. "I don't want my school life with Kaname-sama to be tarnished by stupid disputes."

'"Kaname-sama," she says...So that girl is also in love with Kaname-sama?" My heart suddenly felt pain.

My sister feel asleep on my shoulder while I was still looking at the door waiting for Kaname. I put my sisters head on my lap and run my fingers through her hair. I suddenly felt sleepy as I leaned my head against the banister.

Now

Kaname was standing in front of the teachers' dorm remembering Victoria and Yuuki at the stairs sleeping. He looked at Yuuki's neck even though the blood from her smells delicious. He thought that Victoria's blood was more delicious and so did other vampires. He saw part of her neck that wasn't covered from her hair as he suddenly goes closer to her neck, but stops and picked the two girls up. Yuuki on his back, and holding Victoria in his arms bridle style.

"You...are too cruel to me, Victoria." Kaname said.

Victoria's POV

I woke up seeing that I am on a bed no longer on the stairs, the moon still showing. I looked down seeing a coat that was covering me and my sister 'Kaname-sama.' I looked over to my sister seeing she is awake as well. We both decided to sit up.

"Ruka." Said a voice. We looked at the door seeing it a little bit open we walked over to the door. Seeing Ruka and Kaname embracing but what it actually was...Kaname sucking Ruka's blood from her neck, and Ruka passing out. My Onee-chan grabed my hand and we started to run out of the room leaving Kaname. Kaname was holding Ruka with red eyes and blood going down his chin.

'That's right. Run away from me, Yuki...Victoria. Victoria, you make me become so cruel.'

Nobody's POV

'That's not Kaname-sama!' Victoria thought. Victoria suddenly hear the child like voice in her head again as well as the women's voice.

'You should be well aware of it. Reality cannot be changed.'

'For Kaname-sama to do something like this. It must be a bad dream.' Victoria thought.

Victoria's POV

"They don't hesitate when taking another person's life." Said Zero as he takes my hand and my other hand takes Onee-chan outside the . "They are beasts in the diguise of humans, after same goes for Kuran Kaname."

"But you know, Kaname-sama saved me and my sister." I said as I was almost to cry. "Kaname-sama is different."

"Then...stop shaking." Said Zero. My eyes starts to get wide as I realized I am shaking. Zero starts to rap his arms around me. I stopped shaking when he embraced me.

'That night, I knew the meaning of fear once more.'

Me and my sister started to bow to Kaname and some other vampires.

"Thank you so much for carrying us the other day." We said in unison. Kaname started to turn around heading to the Moon Dorm. 'Kaname-sama is different from me. I became aware of that fact.'

Nobody's POV

Victoria starts to wake up seeing her sister sleeping on the chair and Kaname at the door.

"Kaname-sama?" Kaname looks at me, comes towards me and put his hand on my head.

"Sleep a little more, my little princess." I gave Kaname a nod as he head out of the door. 'Ever since the headmaster said little princess it seemed like Kaname thought it would have been perfect for me and Yuuki kind princess.'

Zero and Kaname talking.

"Why do I tolerate your existence?" Said Kaname. "I don't believe I've ever told you the reason before. I am well aware of how fragile the peace at Cross Academy is. Consequently, it occurred to me. This one who would be most suited to become Victoria, and Yuuki's shield in this miniature garden..." 'Mostly Victoria.' Thought Kaname looking at Zero. "You can never betray her because you owe her too much. And that is why, Zero, you are allowed to live...by me.

'That day, something changed inside me. However, one thing remains unchanged. Despite everything, I still love Kaname-sama.' Thought Victoria.
