It had been several days since Rima had taken Aikura with her into town, and now she had just found out about Aikuras true name, her parents names, and even the fact she was more than just Kanames cousin; but in fact Senris Half-Sister. When Rima had found out, her bright blue eyes had widened in shock, before she turned them onto Aikura as she had spoken

"I...I didn't know Senris father was Rido Kuran"

"He is Rima, Though keep this quiet, Aikura-Chan wishes for Senri to work it out on his own" Kaname had said softly to the blonde haired vampire female, nodding in understanding, Rima walked over to Aikura with a bright smile and hugged the pure blood female tightly as she whispered lowly

"Just don't let Senri take to long to figure it out"

"I won't Rima-Chan" Aikura whispered back softly.

The following night, when Aikura had awoken to the soft sounding tapping at her bedroom door, she sighed deeply as she dragged herself from her bed; straightened out her pale blue silken nightie, and sauntered sleepily over to the bedroom door. Opening it slowly Aikura glanced out into the hallway to see Rima smiling brightly at her, her blue orbs glimmering softly as she spoke

"Good morning Aikura-Chan, Kaname-Sama asked me to come wake you up"

"Oh... why?"

"Because we have class soon silly" Rima chuckled softly, "Plus I wanted to suggest something to you, a way to wear your hair for today"

"Oh..." Aikura whispered, rubbing at her eyes as she let her new friend into her bedroom, as she walked over to her wardrobe and pulled out her uniform; before she turned around to walk towards her bed, and placed it down slowly, "What did you want to do with my hair?"

"I was thinking of you wearing it tied back, with this" Rima said softly pulling out a lilac ribbon from her skirt pocket, that had a light blue rose sewn into the center, "I think it would look just perfect. With you having platinum hair, and icy blue eyes; I thought these colours would be perfect"

"Thank you Rima-Chan" Aikura said softly, a bright smile touching her lips, "Just give me twenty minutes to get showered"

"Okay Aikura-Chan, I will just go grab something from my bedroom and inform Kaname that you are now awake" And with that, Rima left Aikura to get showered and dressed.

About forty five minutes later, Aikura and Rima were standing at the top of the stairs, Rima in her normal Academy uniform of white skirt, black blouse, white jacket, black knee high socks, and brown boots with her blonde hair tied into pig tails. While Aikura, wore the exact same as Rima, though Aikuras long waist length platinum hair had been pulled back, into a rather high ponytail; that looked as if it was almost situated upon the top of the pure bloods head, with the lilac ribbon. that Rima had spoke off earlier that evening tied tightly around the long flowing hair, with a pale light blue rose at its center. Several of Aikuras long platinum hair hung loose in several tendrils slipping into the pure bloods eyes and framing Aikuras young features, while her icy blue orbs glimmered softly, as the two females started down the stairs; to gain the attention of all the night class students. Each stared up at the two females in admiration, as Aikura smiled at everyone; only two days before hand Aikura had slowly started talking to her fellow class men, finding that each vampire was uniquely different, yet they all respected her. Parting her pale pink lips slightly, Aikura smiled before she spoke ever so softly

"G-Good morning"

"Good morning Aikura-Chan" Senri was the first to speak, as he walked towards the two smaller female vampires, a small blush dusting across his pale cheeks; as he leaned down slightly and placed a light kiss upon Aikuras cheek, and causing the young pure blood to also blush softly, "You look wonderful"

"Thank you Senri-Chan" Aikura said softly, her icy blue eyes gazing back into Senris own dull blue ones, as they heard the sound of foot steps coming down the stairs, them to turn around and to glance at who it was coming down the stairs, as Aikura smiled softly, "Morning Kaname-Sama"

"Good morning Aikura-Chan. Are we ready?" Kaname asked simply while turning his eyes to everyone else in the room, receiving nods from everyone Kaname turned to Aikura and Rima who were already by the doors giggling together, "Well then it seems the girls are leading the way. Senri, Ichijou, please walk with the girls" Kaname stated as said males nodded and walked over to the females; Takuma beside Rima with a small smile, while Senri grabbed for Aikuras hand, a small pink tinge touching his cheeks. Aikura just chuckled softly and leaned up kissing the brunettes cheek before herself and Rima led the way, out of the dormitories and down to the gates.

Once at the gates, Aikura and Rima glanced at each other with uncharacteristic smirks touching their lips, as they pushed the gates open to come face front with the screaming Day Class girls. Noticing how Zero and Yuki were keeping the girls in check, as Senri walked hand in hand with Aikura along the path.

Both having faint blushes on their faces as several of the screaming girls, noticed how the young female was much closer to Senri then she had previously been, and started crying out that they wanted Senris attention, cursing at Aikura; one even thought it would be funny to throw a nearby stone at the young Pure blood Vampire.

Aikura sensing the incoming object reached her hand out, grabbing for the stone in mid-air; as she was suddenly surrounded by all of the night class students, who had ran towards her, to keep her from harm or lashing out towards the Day class females.

Kaname glared towards the Day class students, causing Senri to pull Aikura closer to his body as Takuma, along with Rima quickly indicated that they headed towards their class with Senri continuing to keep Aikura close to his form. While they made sure nothing else happened on their way, stopping only once they had reached the Academy classroom building; once inside they turned to face the area in which they had come from when they heard a loud commotion coming from where the day class girls were, causing the four night calls students to sigh deeply, when Rima turned slightly to glance towards Aikura who was visibly shaking with what she knew would of been rage as she spoke softly and calming

"Aikura-Chan, are you alright?" Rima asked as soon as the main doors were closed behind them by Takuma with a low sigh

"Y-Yeah..." Aikura whispered lightly as she blinked several times before gulping thickly, Senri just pulled her closer to his chest and held her protectively; as he lowered his lips to the pure bloods ear and whispered lowly but softly

"I'm s-sorry Aikura-Chan, you shouldn't of been in the firing line of those stupid fan girls"

"It is fine Senri-Chan" Aikura replied softly while glancing slowly up at the male who held her so protectively, though noticeably still pretty shaken up by what had just happened when they left their dormitory.

Rima sighed lightly as she and the other three made their way towards their class room, none of them speaking a single word, in fear of Aikura snapping at the,; something Takuma had noticed that Aikura had done towards Hanabusa when he had attempted to talk to her just several days before hand. Entering into the class room that was used as their class for the night, the four silent vampires took their seats, while they waited for the remaining night class students to join them; the class room doors opened, and both Toga Yagari accompanied by Headmaster Cross entered the room.

Both older human males stared towards the four quiet Vampire students, before glancing at each other, before Yagari turned his attention back to his Night Class students, speaking with a low inquiring tone

"Oh, is it only you four today?" Toga asked almost softly, while staring at the four seated Vampires

"No... Kaname-Sama and the rest of the night class are dealing with stupid human girls" Aikura spat venomously, her icy blue orbs narrowing towards the known vampire hunter with anger slowly lacing her words, "Stupid humans need to learn their damned place"

"Aikura Fate! You cannot say that about the Day Class Students"

"Oh I can!" Aikura spat, clenching her fists tightly before snapping her eyes towards the Headmaster of the Academy, "One of those stupid girls threw a stone at ME!" Aikura hissed out, her icy blues slowly turning into a deep crimson

"W-What!?"

"It is true Headmaster Cross, one of the girls from the Day Class attempted to attack Aikura-Chan. If she hadn't responded so quickly... Well I am sure that half of the Day class girls would of ended up dead, especially if Shiki didn't pull her away in time and dragging her into his arms, or Kaname and the rest getting between her and the Day class girls. I sure that if the other Students had gotten between Aikura-Chan, who Shiki had, had to hold back and those Day class girls, I am certain that Aikura-Chan would of destroyed your pacifist ways" Takuma said softly, noticing how Aikura was starting to growl lowly, so Takuma shot a glance at Senri to get her out into the hallway, with a small nod; Senri did just that. Tapping the growling female vampires shoulder, catching her attention, as he indicated for her to follow him, which she did instantly.

As soon as the two had left the room, Takuma sighed deeply as he stared towards the two humans before himself and Rima, as he parted his lips and speaking with a slightly hushed tone as so to be certain that Senri would not hear what was about to be spoken

"Aikura-Chan, could of spilt her own secret in front of Shiki, she has after all explained to us that know of her secret, that she wants Shiki to figure it out on his own that she is his sister. So far, Shiki has been able to get her to open up a little more to us all, but I fear that she may explode if the Day class girls do not calm down about her presence near us night class boys. They are just getting way out of hand now, they seem to of become jealous and angry girls, and it is all aimed at Aikura-Chan. When she has done nothing wrong, she only walks to class like the rest of us beside Shiki, because they are siblings"

"I do understand that Takuma, though I have noticed that Aikura-Chan has opened up much more over the last few days. Kaname has informed me that, that was your doing Rima"

"Yes it was, I took Aikura-Chan shopping with me the other day and we have been well, pretty good friends since, I really like having Aikura-Chan around; she seems to be the only female in both night and day classes who can make Senri smile" Rima said softly, just as the doors of the night class, classroom swung open slightly, the first who entered was Hanabusa, flushing crimson

"T-they're...they are kissing again!" Aidou exclaimed before stomping over to his seat and sitting down, followed by the rest of the night class students, including Aikura.

Though still out side, Kaname was talking lowly with Senri, dull blue eyes glancing down at the floor with a slight crimson tinge to his cheeks

"Well Senri? Did you come to a conclusion about Aikura-Chan?"

"I did Kaname-Sama..."

"And what was it that you came to conclude?" Kaname asked simply, his red wine coloured eyes, eyeing the slightly trembling boy

"I... I love her Kaname-Sama. I want to be with her, so I can protect her completely. To be by her side forever. To be the only one to hold her at night" Senri spoke quietly with a deeper crimson dusting his cheeks

"I understand. If that is what you wish Senri, then I will be here for you. You are my cousin after all, and it would be nice to see you happy for a change" Kaname stated as he turned his back to Senri and walked into the class room with a flushing Senri following behind.

Once every member of the Night class students were in their seats, Kaien Cross, the Headmaster explained that the Cross Academy Annual Dance was only seven days away, earning groans to slip from the mouths of all the Night class students; all except for Aikura who growled lowly

"What does this dance even consist of?"

"Well Aikura Fate. The Annual Dance is the one and only time, where both the Day Class students and the Night class students come together" Kaien Cross said simply, though noticing the pure blood vampires disgusted glare directed straight at him

"Hmph! I don't see why they get to spend an evening with our kind, they are loud, disgusting, and out right annoying" Aikura hissed, earning a smack upside the back of her head, making her glare towards Kaname, "Why'd you hit me for!? I am only stating a fact!"

"Aikura Fate! You will not ruin this dance for the students. You do not have to attend the dance if you really think so lowly of the Day class students" Kaname growled darkly at his own cousin, causing her to stand up and leave the class room as she growled out darkly towards Kaname himself

"I'd rather not be any where near those annoying little humans! They shouldn't even be permitted to be in our kinds presence! You of all people should know that, and to think you want to be near them is a disgrace, and outright disgusting! WE are of the night, not some damned toys for those wretched girls to fawn over Kaname Kuran!" With her words hissed out darkly, and with icy blue eyes glowing a dark red, Aikura stormed off out of the classroom while slamming the door shut; and almost smashing it off of its hinges; and leaving all of the Night class students in stunned silence

"How dare she! She has no right to Speak to Lord Kaname like that!"

"Ruka, Just leave the girl alone" the tall orange haired male spoke lightly

"NO! She had no right!" the one called Ruka retorted as Kaname sighed deeply, looking towards Senri before speaking

"Senri, please go and make sure Aikura-Chan doesn't do something stupid"

"Yes Kaname-Sama" Senri replied, as he pushed himself out of his seat and left the class room to go and look for Aikura.

Once Kaname was mostly certain that Senri would be way out of ear shot and wouldn't hear what was about to be spoken off, Kaname stood from his seat and cleared his throat as he glanced around the class room

"I want you all to listen to what I have to tell you" He started, as everyone still in the class room nodded and quietened down, after witnessing Aikuras out burst towards the pure blood Vampire they all followed. Kaname sighed deeply as he placed the book in his hand down upon the desk in front of him, before glancing around the entire class room once more, "There is something you all need to know about Aikura-Chan. We-" Kaname said as he indicated towards himself, Rima, Takuma, as well as both Kaien Cross and Toga Yagari, "Were hoping that Aikura-Chan could keep her identity a secret from you all"

"Lord Kaname, what do you mean?" Ruka asked staring up at the Pure blood vampire, she had for so long desired to be with, with slight confusion lacing her brown eyes

"What I mean is that, Aikura-Chan isn't like any of you in this room" Kaname said lightly, earning him confused stares as he inhaled deeply, while exhaling slowly before he parted his lips to continue speaking, "What I mean is, Aikura Fate doesn't exactly exist. Her real name by birth is Aikura Hio. She is a Pure Blood Vampire like myself, this is the reason that I did not retaliate to her outburst towards me, like I would of towards any of you who would of dared to pull such a stunt. Because she has my respect, along with the fact that she is the daughter of Shizuka Hio, a pure blood vampire."

"B-but Shizuka never had children" Ruka gasped out, not wanting to believe the words that she was hearing from the mouth of her child hood love

"She did, with her Fiancee. In case you have forgotten, Rido Kuran was Shizuka Hios fiancee. Shizuka had fallen pregnant around the same time Rido had gotten another young women pregnant. That women was Senris Mother. Senri has no idea that Aikura is actually his half sister, and Aikura-Chan would rather like to keep it that way for as long as she possibly can. Senri himself needs to find out for himself about who Aikura-Chan really is; to himself, and what it is that he wants to do about how he feels for her, so until then, I want you all to keep quiet about who Aikura-Chan is, and to realize that Aikura-Chan is also my cousin. I also want you all to treat her with respect she deserves!" Kaname growled the last part out, while glaring his crimson turning eyes towards the Vampires of the night class. Everyone in the room bar the four who had already known of Aikuras true identity and who she was to the Pure blood vampire, stared at Kaname with wide-eyes before several gasps echoed within the room, fear evident with in half of the Students eyes at what they had all just been told and had been trusted with to keep to themselves

"S-So that bratty child is a Pure Blo-" Ruka was cut off instantly as a harsh sounding slap landing upon her right cheek, leaving an instant red hand print, and causing the sound of said slap to reverberate off the walls, as Rima glared deadly at the taller female

"Don't call her that! You have no right! Especially when she isn't even here to defend her self against your wretched words of hate, or to even hit you herself! Aikura-Chan has never done anything to cause any of us any trouble what so ever! She has had to live with both Vampires and Humans alike hating on her, all because she is the daughter of Shizuka Hio. She has suffered a life beyond any of you could even think of! She kept herself hidden, because of the fact of the sins of which Shizuka had done towards the Kiryu family! Because of this she is hunted just for being the heir to the pure blood vampire, as well as having that Kiryu boy blaming her for her mothers doing, she doesn't need the likes of you or Zero treating her so badly! Especially when she has done nothing wrong!" Rima snapped, causing everyone to gasp loudly at the smallest of their class of vampires actions towards Ruka of all people

"Rima Touya"

"I'm sorry Lord Kaname, but this isn't fair! Zero targets her every chance he gets! He threatens her very existence! He makes Aikura-Chan feel as if she doesn't belong here at this Academy with us, her own kind. Just because of what happened in the past with her mother, that was Shizukas doing, not Aikuras! All Aikura-Chan wants is to be accepted by us, the Vampires! Why should she have to feel so unwanted because of one Hunter who holds a grudge against her name sake! She deserves to be welcomed, to be shown that she does belong with us! Because of everything that has happened to her... Because of the humans driving her out, the hunters trying to kill her because of her name... Aikura-Chan feels like she should go back into hiding, away from those she shouldn't have to hide from! And for all we know, Aikura-Chan could be feeling as if she has done something wrong, just because she was born to the women who destroyed Zeros life! If all we know while we are all in here discussing this, he could of cornered Aikura-Chan with Senri and slipped out who she is! That will break Senris Heart! To know WE Kept it from him, kept who Aikura-Chan really is from him! He loves her, I have known for a day or so now, and I will be damned if anything happens to destroy this only chance Senri has of being happy! I don't want to see my best friend being hurt because of some stupid Vampire hunter who holds a grudge against the wrong Hio!" Rima screamed out, dropping to her knees while holding her head in her hands; her small form shaking with the frustration and anger that she felt within her heart.

Takuma noticing the pain the young blonde vampire felt jumped to her side, attempting to comfort the female as much as he possibly could, to calm her down so that she could return to the Moon Dormitories, as he glanced up at Kaname with worry laced eyes

"Kaname, Rima has a valid point"

"I understand both of you. I want everyone to go in pairs and find Senri and Aikura, to make sure they are both safe and out of harms way of the Day Class girls, and Zero Kiryu" Kaname stated authoritatively, earning nods from everyone in the night class, as they all left the class room one by one to go in search in pairs for the pure blood Vampire and her brother.

While heading back towards the moon Dormitories, Aikura was growling lowly, her small hands clenched into fists as she stopped suddenly, causing the running Senri to run into her with a low groan

"A-Aikura-Chan, why did you stop?" Senri asked suddenly, as he glanced to where Aikuras once icy blue, now crimson red eyes were fixated on. Several feet away from where they stood, stood Zero Kiryu, his dull lilac eyes focused on nothing but Aikura, who had started growling, and had caused Senri to stand between them and breaking Zeros locked eyes to stare at himself

"Why aren't you in class Vampires?"

"That has nothing to do with you Zero Kiryu"

"Doesn't it Vampire? You and that disgrace should be in your classes, not running through the school grounds. Or has that things thirst for blood gotten to her?" Zero retorted venomously as Aikura gripped onto Senris jacket, before stepping out to the side of her half-brother, her crimson eyes still flashing

"Why can't you just leave me alone!? All you disgusting hunters are beginning to get on my nerves!"

"Well if you weren't-"

"Shiki! Aikura-Chan!" Takuma shouted as he ran over to them quickly, cutting off Zeros sentence as he stared between them, "What is going on here?"

"That is what I want to know" Zero growled lowly

"How about I tell you" Aikura hissed lowly stepping closer to the Vampire hunter with her fangs beared, "The next time you mention that name, I will not think twice of ripping you apart myself" The young Pure blood stated darkly as she stepped closer to Zero making said male take a hesitant step backwards, "Because if that name is ever muttered in my presence again, I will do what she failed to do and be rid of you!"

"Aikura-Chan, there is no need for that. Come on back to the dormitories"

"Fine, I don't want to look at HIS face any longer" Aikura hissed before turning around and walking off in the direction of the moon dorms, followed by Senri close behind her, leaving Takuma staring towards the other male

"Look Zero, we all know you hate Aikura-Chan because of her mother, but please be considerate to her feelings. She had no idea of what Shizuka Hio done to your family, or to you. So just leave her alone, and let her live her life here with us, where she belongs" Takuma stated simply, before he to left the scene and headed after Aikura and Senri who were heading back to safe confines of the moon dormitories.

Back at the Dormitories, Aikura slammed the main doors open, startling Rima and Aidou who had been sat quietly upon the couches in the lobby, as she stormed up the stairs; muttering something about being left alone. Rima just blinked stupidly as Senri ran in moments later, slightly panting

"W-Where is A-Aikura-Chan?"

"Er... her room I am guessing" Hanabusa said lightly as he watched with Rima, as Senri ran up the stairs to follow Aikura.

Standing outside the pure blood vampires bedroom door, Senri leaned his head against it lightly listening to the sounds of things crashing and being broken within, as he sighed deeply before knocking on the door

"Leave. Me. Alone!"

"A-Aikura-Chan... Please let me in" Senri said softly, though a little saddened that the young female vampire seemed to be so angry, and hurting deep inside with the things that had happened, when the bedroom door slowly opened, causing said male to glance towards the crimson eyes staring towards him, "please, let me in. I am on my own"

"Fine" Aikura whispered lowly, as she stepped away from the door, allowing her half-brother to enter her now trashed bedroom; dull blue eyes staring slightly wide eyed, at the two broken tables, and a broken chair; Senri sighed lightly as he closed Aikuras bedroom door, before he stepped closer to the still obviously angry female

"Aikura-Chan. Please calm down"

"I don't want to"

"Please, for me, will you calm down?" Senri asked softly, causing the pure blood vampire to turn her gaze into his saddening eyes, and causing Aikura to blink several times before running into Senris arms as she softly sobbed into the taller males chest. Senri just let a small sigh of relief slip from his lips as he ran his fingers up and down Aikuras back comfortingly, causing said female to glance up, her normally icy blue eyes still a deep crimson as she parted her lips slightly, revealing her fangs as Senri closed his eyes slowly and nodded at her; indicating that he would allow her to take her thirst of blood from himself.

Aikura sighed weakly before leaning up, fangs beard as she slowly stuck her small pink tongue out, and licked up the length of her half-brothers neck several times; before sinking her fangs deeply into the pale flesh, piercing the flesh instantly, as warm blood flowed instantly into her mouth; and causing a small moan of satisfaction slipping from Aikuras throat. Filling her instantly with his warm blood, as she gulped it down hungrily, gripping her hands into the taller males jacket, and pulling him ever closer; as Senri groaned lowly, wrapping his arms tightly around the pure bloods waist, and pulling her flat against his chest.

Pulling away shortly after, Aikura stared at up Senri, his blood trickling down her chin from the corner of pale pink lips; causing Senri to smile softly, as he leaned down, darting his tongue out slowly, and licking the blood up from Aikuras chin to the corner of her lips, before kissing Aikuras lips lovingly.

Icy blue eyes, finally returning, Aikura stared up at Senri, before leaning up and wrapping her slender arms around the males neck, and pulling him closer as she crushed her lips against Senris. Earning a slightly startled gasp, before the almost sweet yet hungry kiss was returned with just as much ferocity as Aikura put into this kiss, both vampires moaning softly; as Senri pulled the pure blood female more into his body, lifting her up slightly, and carefully though quickly moving towards the females bed, before falling backwards onto it with a soft 'flump' yet not once breaking the fiery kiss.

Aikura broke the kiss first, gasping softly for air as she gazed down into Senris glazed over and clouded eyes, cheeks flamed a rich deep crimson for both vampires as they stayed gazing into the others eyes. Not wanting to speak a word, Aikura leaned down slightly after shifting her body to sit over Senris waist, and pressed her forehead lightly against Senris.

Parted lips on both parts breathing lightly, allowing their breaths to mingle together before once again another much more heated and passionate kiss began, this time Senri being the one to evoke the battle of tongues; causing Aikura to gasp lightly when she felt the others warm moist muscle to slip into her parted lips, pressing against her own, and causing the pure blood vampire to moan lowly; and return the kiss with the same passion and heat in which it was evoked upon her.

Hands entwining together, while lips locked, tongues battled against each other; while small moans mixed in with gentle groans, filled the pure bloods bedroom. Nothing seemed to matter to either of the two Night class students, while they stayed in this one sensual moment of what could of been described as well... the happiest moment in either of their lives.

Suddenly, fingers trailed from small pale hands, to slip around a small lithe back, and pulling the smaller body atop of his own closer; as Senri groaned out lowly, while tilting his head back to gasp out, and allowing Aikura to once again attach her lips to Senris neck. Darting out her small pink moist muscle to lick up the length of the males neck, before placing a gentle kiss to the pulsing veins beneath the stretched and taut flesh of the males neck.

The two Vampire Students, just stayed in the seemingly peaceful moment they had between them, neither moving; both staying still all for the slight moving of their chests, when they breathed faintly. Though their seemingly peaceful moment shattered when the sound of shouting voices made their way to Aikuras and Senris ears. Both gasping and staring at each other, before they both jumped up off of Aikuras bed, and ran out of her room to the top of the stairs to see Kaname staring Hanabusa down. Glancing to stare at each other, Aikura gulped lowly and ran down the stairs to find out what was happening, when she was suddenly stopped by Takuma and Rima grabbing her, and carefully pulling her back

"W-what is going on?"

"Hanabusa bit one of the Day class students, when he was meant to be helping Rima looking for you and Senri earlier" Takuma said quietly, as suddenly the sound of a back handed slap echoed through the whole of the moon dormitories, Aikura gasped loudly as she stared towards her cousin, who had back handed the blonde male with a dark growl

"If you think that is your only punishment Aidou, think again! You dare touch Yuki again, and I will make sure you are kicked from this Academy!" Kaname growled out in the blondes face, causing said blonde to whimper and back up into the wall, his normally bright blue eyes casted down to the ground as he whispered a reply; though only loud enough for Kaname to hear.

Aikura just stood blinking stupidly for a while when Kaname turned around to head back to his room when he saw Aikura staring towards him, her icy blue orbs looking saddened as he walked over to her, reaching his hand out to her as he said much calmer

"Aikura-Chan, I need to speak with you. Meet me in my room please"

"Y-Yes Kaname-Sama" Aikura whispered weakly as she watched Kaname walk past her, her icy blue eyes glanced down at the floor, with a deep sigh slipping from her lips when she felt a pair of arms wrap around her shoulders. Looking up she came face to face with Rima smiling lightly

"Don't worry Aikura-Chan, Kaname won't be having a go at you. I think it will be about the Annual dance that is just around the corner"

"I... I won't be going"

"Please Aikura-Chan, me and you can go with Senri together. The three of us. I am sure that Kaname and the Headmaster will make sure that none of the Day class students cause any trouble" Rima said softly as she gazed into Aikuras saddened icy blue orbs

"L-Like, share Senri-Chan at the Annual Dance?"

"Yeah, why not? We hardly ever enjoy going anyway, and we always went there together. so why not make it a form of 3-sum invitation?"

"I... I will think about it Rima-Chan" Aikura whispered lowly, before turning and heading up the stairs to see what it was that her cousin wanted to talk to her about.

Sighing deeply, Aikura gazed down at the floor as she nibbled her lip lightly, when she heard the sound of the door before her opening. Glancing up quickly, Aikura gulped lowly as she entered her cousins room, her icy eyes looking slightly worried, and she feared what was about to happen when Kaname let out a small sigh before speaking

"Aikura-Chan. I want to discuss with you, the terms of the Academies Annual Dance next week"

"I won't be going. I will stay in my room. There fore you can all enjoy your night with those humans"

"That isn't what I wanted to hear from you Aikura-Chan" Kaname sighed deeply as he sat down upon a crimson form of lounge chair as his red wine eyes glanced towards Aikura, "Listen, I want you to give the Day Class students a chance, It won't be just the girls there. There are also Day Class males, who I am sure will find you just as attractive as any of the Night Class"

"I am still not going, I am have made up my mind. I am sticking to it Kaname-Sama"

"Aikura Hio!"

"Don't call me that! I don't want to be reminded of my mother! Or did you forget she abandoned me!" Aikura freaked as she turned on her heel and headed towards the door before glancing back with a low growl, "If that is all, then I will be returning to my room, Kaname Kuran"

"Listen to me would you!"

"NO! Not if you insist to call me by that wretched name!"

"Then listen to me! Then I wouldn't have to use your real name Aikura-Chan" Kaname stated just as darkly as Aikura had spoken to him, "I am not the only one who would like to see you at that dance, I know Senri would be exceptionally pleased if you were to attend this Annual dance. Plus, I know that many of the others would like you to go, except for Senri, everyone now knows who you are"

"They w-what!?"

"You brought this upon yourself for your behavior in class! How else was I meant to explain to them that I wasn't about to punish my own Family! Aikura-Chan, please engage your brain before you open your damned mouth!"

"B-but... what if they tell Senri! He needs to figure this out on his own!" Aikura screamed loudly, her icy blue eyes lacing with slight worry

"They will not let it slip! I have warned them all, but you have to be careful around Zero Kiryu, I know he wants nothing more than to make you suffer, but you have to tread carefully. Threatening to rip him apart, is not acceptable. Even if you are my cousin Aikura-Chan"

"I still won't go"

"Aikura-Chan, at least please think about going. I think it would be good for you" Kaname stated simply as he stood up slowly and walked closer towards his young pure blood cousin, causing said female to sigh deeply as she was pulled into an almost loving embrace as she closed her eyes and whispered

"F-fine... I will think about it... Now may I return to my room?"

"Of course, get some rest"

"Thank you. Good night Kaname-Sama" Aikura whispered lowly, as she pushed Kaname away from her, and exited his room. A deep sigh slipping from her lips, as she noticed that Senri was sat in the lobby talking with Rima and Takuma. Closing her eyes for a brief moment, Aikura leaned against the railing with a small smile touching her lips, while she watched her friends, and her half brother engage in small conversation. Rima giggling almost girlishly, glanced her blue orbs up at the railing, where Aikura was leaning and watching them all fondly

"Aikura-Chan, come down here and sit with us" Rima said softly, as both Takuma and Senri turned their gaze to stare up at the young female

"No, that is alright. I am going to bed, I have a headache coming on" Aikura said softly, her icy blues dulling slightly as all three Aristocratic vampires smiled lightly up at Aikura.

Senri had a faint blush tracing his cheeks, as he bidded Aikura a peaceful nights sleep. Rima following suit with a bright smile. Though Takuma stood up from the couch he had been lounging on, a soft smile tracing his lips, as he turned to walk up the stairs; where he took Aikuras hand when he reached the pure blood vampire, and walked her slowly back to her room. Leaving Rima along with Senri staring off after the two vampires.

Standing outside of Aikuras bedroom, Takuma smiled down at Aikura, with almost sparkling light emerald eyes; causing Aikura to smile softly as she opened her bedroom door when Takuma spoke softly

"Aikura-Chan. About what Rima asked you earlier"

"A-about the...Annual Dance?" Aikura questioned with a small yawn, as she covered her mouth with her small hand

"Yes. We were just talking about that, and Senri really wants you to go"

"Kaname-Sama said the same thing" Aikura said lightly, with a small sigh, as her icy blues gazed down at the floor while nibbling her bottom lip

"Well don't feel as if you are being pressured into going. If you really do not want to go, then you don't have to. Just please for me Aikura-Chan, will you think hard on your choice?"

"Yeah... Okay Takuma. I will. But only because you have asked me so nicely" Aikura said softly, as she glanced up into Takumas glimmering eyes with a gentle smile upon his lips, "Anyway, I am tired. Please leave me to sleep"

"Of course Aikura-Chan. Sleep well" Takuma replied softly, as he pet the girls hair, before leaving the young pure blood vampire to get herself some well needed sleep.

Sighing deeply to herself, Aikura collapsed upon her bed, after she had gotten undressed; and changed into her pajamas. Closing her icy blue eyes slowly, Aikura let a small sigh slip from her parted lips, as she reached a small hand up to touch at her lips; her pale cheeks flushing a slight pink, just as she drifted off into a deep and relaxing sleep.
