AN-I finally wrote it! Warning may be a little OCC or very depending on your views. I might have done a lot of grammar mistakes due to the fact that, grammar is my weak point. So....bored....School starts, I did summer homework. Finally finished! Woo hooo!
I would like to thanks my two reviewers, out of the forty hits I got and the people who alerted me... If you read it just tell me what I need to do to improve. It is late (afternoon) it is late for a vampire and the light burns so reviews.
Yeah...do us all a favor and review....
I have two OCs and I own only those two...the rest they don't belong to me.

Chapter Two
A Dreamer's Dream
All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.
-Edgar Allan Poe
WEEK ONE-
"Knight-san, what is the answer?" The teacher questioned her, with an evil glint in his eyes, as if he suspected that Naomi will answer the question inaccurately. "The answer is 1895.74; she answers absentmindedly, staring out the window, only to look at the teacher briefly as a look of shock came upon his stern features. "That's correct." He managed to say, after a moment of silence.
He didn't call on her for the rest of the lesson, which was fine with her, as she stared out into space, locked in a trance. "Naomi-chan, come 'on class is over." Yuki's voice snapped her out of a reverie. "Sure." She muttered as she followed her out of the building, enjoying the wind playing in her hair. Walking with Yuki was awkward, Naomi tends to distance herself from her at times, and mostly she doesn't answer her questions, but still she was a genuine person and that is one of the reasons Naomi enjoys her company, but…
I can't trust her…
No...
It is the other way around, she can't trust me.
No one can, can they?
Naomi leaned against the tree, and closed her eyes as her hair fluttered against the wind. She wrapped my arms around herself, murmuring gentle lullabies to herself, ignoring the Kyaa's made from all the girls…I wish they would shut the hell up, they sound like banshees to be honest…
Go down the path, go down the path
What narrow path is this?
This is the shrine god's path
Go ahead down the path
If you have no errand, don't go
I come to pray in celebration for this child's seventh birthday
Going is easy, coming back is scary
Even though it's scary, go down the path, go down the path
She opens her eyes, the green irises of her eyes looked as if they were blooming with sadness, but yet the sheer determination was hard to avoid. She let her gaze follow the Night Class, before she froze as chocolate brown eyes stared calculating in hers. Naomi blinked, before walking away from the Night Class.
She didn't like the look he was looking at her as if she was a monster. It's not like she needs another reminder. Her emerald eyes grew wide, as tears threatened to spill as she collapsed into the ground. Her hands clutched the grass, as she sat there in the forest, lost and alone. One moment she was happy, but the next moment she sold her soul to the devil.
I'm getting weaker; each day…I feel a part of me disappearing, just like he said. But if you care about someone enough, this pain would be bearable then losing them. I made a promise and I intend to keep it.
"You will be feeling like this for a while…Naomi."
It was darkness all around me as I glanced around; trying to find the voice, but the only light was coming of the luminous glow of my body. I was dreaming…again. "How much longer, till it is over?" I silently asked the voice.
"A while, but it will get easier over time." The voice tried to reassure me, but alas no avail. "How will it get easier? Every day is even more agonizing then the last, how do you expect me to find it less painful?" I shout in the darkness, my voice echoing.
"Naomi…please try…for me…"
The voice turns into his voice and I found it hard to refuse the offer. I hated it. As if he had casted some sort of spell on me, making me fall into his demands. But the difference is that, I was doing this willingly, I had control…I can escape him.
But the funny thing is…that I can't…
"I'll try…for you."
After all I love him.
"Naomi-san?"
"Uh…" Bleary vision clouded her mind as she closed her eyes only to open them a moment later. "I'm fine…what happened?" She asked them, rubbing her eyes tiredly. "You collapsed, Aido and I found you there lying unconscious, screaming.
"Care to tell us what happened?"
Naomi finally glanced at her two rescuers, Akatsuki Kain, and Hanabusa Aido who were glancing at her, with curiosity in the infirmary. She glanced at the two cousins, before she heard Yuki's alarmed voice, "Is she all right?" Yuki asked to no one in particular as she ran toward her. "Naomi-chan, how are you, when they brought you here…your screams…" Yuki shuddered, Naomi looked away ashamed. "It happens a lot. That is why I was requested my own room."
"Oh…" Yuki looked down embarrassed for asking such a question. "It's all right…I'm used to it," Naomi smiled reassuringly. Lie. I am not used to it. A matter of fact I am completely tortured by it…and it gets worse by each passing moment. Naomi felt, a deep sinking feeling of guilt as she lied. Yuki has been nothing more than genuinely kind to her…why does she have to lie to her?
Oh yeah…because it would be better if she didn't even know my predicament…You don't want someone as innocent as Yuki to be trapped in this cage as well…
That's why.
She thought wryly, as a smile slowly crept up her face, giving her the look of sorrow. "Come on, I'll take you back to the dorms…" Yuki said as she watched Naomi jump of the bed, before smiling, "It is alright Yuki-chan…I am sure I'll be able to make it just fine. Thank you Akatsuki-senpai and Hanabusa-senpai, for helping me, sorry I kept you all away from class. And Yuki-chan, I am sorry I worried you."
She walked swiftly out the door, ignoring the confused looks that were placed on their faces. It's better if they don't know. For all of us…Second night of school and I already screwed up. Great. Just freaking great…Now what stupid lies will I have to make up? And when Day Class hears about this…Kill me.
"You know I can't do that…Nami-chan…" He chuckled, smiling. "Get out of my head, you freak." I scowled, "I am sick of being your freaking pawn. I hate being your doll. Just go away."
"I saved your life."
"No either way I lost it." I retorted, glaring at the blackness, but I knew I was conscience; I just opened my door to my dorm room.
"Go get some sleep, Naomi…You need your rest."
"Will you sing to me?"
After all these years, you just love hearing me sing, don't you?" He chuckled. "Every night, at exactly 11:11 you would come in my room and talk to me until I fell asleep." I reminded him. "That hasn't changed…"He said his voice distant.
"When will everything get better? Your promise…the words are as clear as the day we made it." I said as I slowly started to drift into oblivion.
"Soon…Naomi…"
Naomi tossed and turned the whole night. Dreams of blood sucking monsters, and fire swirled across her mind. "After all these years…those dreams still haunt me." She muttered as she ran to class, not bothering to wait for Yuki or get breakfast. I wonder if he is alright. This mental telepathy thing works for a while, but I am still worried. If I am lucky, maybe I won't have to see the Night Class. As much as I like Shiki, but still…I can't trust them.
Class passed by in a blur, but this time Naomi was alone. She avoided everyone she came in contact with, and had a monotone expression on her face as she stared at the window, answering the teacher's questions when called. As soon as class was over, she rushed out of class…running toward the same place as usual. Underneath the Sakura Trees that were in full bloom. She closed her eyes and frowned at the-
"KYAA! I LOVE YOU IDOL-SENPAI!"
"WILD-SENPAI!!!"
"TAKUMA-SENPAI!!!"
Naomi clenched her fists, if she has to hear another KYAA, she will personally hunt down that person to their doom.
"KYAA!!! KANAME-SENPAI!!!"
"SHIKI-SENPAI!!! KYAA!!!"
Upon hearing more squeals, Naomi stalked down toward Yuki, her glares ice cold.
"WHY CAN'T YOU SHUT THE HELL UP?!" It was all silent as they all looked at her, shocked. "YOU MAKE POOR YUKI-CHAN HERE, SUFFER AND I AM SURE THAT KIRYU-SAN HERE IS SUFFERING HERE." Naomi took a deep breath, before continuing, "You all are idiots. Fools," she sneered the word, before continuing, "All people want is a peace and quiet, but NOOOO….I have to listen to annoying fan girls instead. Do you idiots actually think that screaming, 'KYAA, KYAA!'" She stopped for a moment, mimicking the fan girls' expressions perfectly, before continuing, "Will actually get them to like you? Now that is funny."
"Now do us all a favor, and shut up, go away and get a life or something!" Naomi snapped as she watched everyone's deathly silence break into soft murmurs. Yuki walked up to Naomi, still in awe, "Wow…how did you get them to walk away like that?"
"I told them how I felt," Naomi laughed bitterly. How ironic. That stupid shrink was right, telling how you feel really does make a person feel better. She looked at the Night Class, who was still looking at her, and sighed, "You all better get to class…They will be here tomorrow no doubt."
They left after that, after nodding in thanks. Naomi watched them in a distance as she stood there with Yuki and Zero. "Thanks." Kiryū muttered quietly as he watched the remaining Night Class students disappear. "You are welcome, you guys should try it. Tell them they sound like banshees or something…I will die young if I continue to hear them screaming."
"Die young?" Yuki asked her, looking quite confused. "Banshees cries predict death. People hear them before they die, or that is what the legend says."
"Oh…"
"Hey, Zero, do you think banshees exist?" Naomi almost laughed at the serious expression on her face. It has been so long since she has seen innocence like Yuki's. It was refreshing…To see someone like her. A real treat to me…
"No."
"What kind of answer is that? Naomi-chan, help me get him to talk."
Naomi laughed, before shaking her head as she started following Zero away from the door."She will figure it out, right?" Naomi asked him, worried.
"Yeah…she is just slow."
"I am not slow!"
Both turned around to find Yuki behind them, steaming, for the first time since she got here, she see's Zero actually show some sign of amusement on his face. It surprised her, how much she enjoyed seeming him smile.
After all the smile is the door to soul, if the eyes are the windows to it.
"Enjoying yourself, aren't you?" The voice asked me, but I didn't mind. "Yup!" I exclaimed smiling, "When do I get to see you, again?" I asked him, my voice filled with hope. "Don't worry about it, you will see me soon enough."
"Do you promise?"
"I cross my heart, hope to die, swallow a thousand needles if I lie." He chuckled quoting the promise we used to make a long time ago.
I smiled, as darkness shrouded my soul, in slumber.
Fourth Day = Boredom.
That is what it was, boring. Complete udder purgatory…Naomi knew this was a life sentence, when she accepted the offer to come here, but…she thought it would be a little more fun. The day was completely normal, except for the 99.9% of the Day Class girls glaring at her. But it isn't like she cared; she has been around these types of people before so it wasn't a bother.
It was actually the fifth day that made a difference.
Naomi and Yuki went out to town with Zero who went grudgingly, but Chairman Cross who she still has yet, to meet forced him to do this…Unless he wants to spend more time with the Night Class, who Zero despises.
Naomi suddenly went into some sort trance like state and started to walk away from Yuki and Zero discreetly. The rose necklace she was wearing glowed faintly as she continued to walk, as her eyes were put into a spell. Her feet trudged slowly across the crowded streets, until she reached the abandoned mansion. "I'm here…" She says, as she enters, her voice in a monotone state. Her necklace grew brighter as she walked toward the library…or what used to be the library.
"Naomi…you have returned…" The velvet voice spoke up.
"Like you request…" she said, as she walked toward him. Golden eyes danced, watching her every move, as he stood up. "Come here…" He drew his hand, drawing her in. His hand traced her throat, as he leaned her head back and let his teeth sink into her neck, piercing her skin. She yelped, her eyes darkening, "Stop it…" she whimpered.
"You wished for an escape, Nami…I granted your wish. I let you go to a school and have a normal life. I discarded those fools you call parents for you…"
"And this is your payment."
"My life?"
"No your blood…"
"That is the same thing."
"I won't let you die, Nami…You know that."
"So…you will let me go and forget this whole thing ever happened?" She looked at him hopefully her, her green irises widening, she started to use the whole puppy dog eyes.
"No."
"I hate you."
"I love you too…"
"The feeling's neutral…"
"That is what your mind says, your heart says something else." Nami blushed and looked away, "That was…before…" she muttered, staring at the bloodstains on the floor. No one said anything after that, and once again his lips were on her neck, and as his fangs bit down on her neck…she just stood there lifeless, and defeated like a doll.
"Naomi!" She looked up to find four pairs of eyes looking at her with utter shock. "Naomi what happened…how…did…did?" Yuki looked at her wide eyed, gaping with shock at what she was seeing. "I become his personal snack? Well it all started the day I met him, 12 years ago and developed a friendship with him and then he became a traitor and used me-"
"Now Nami…we have more history then that…"
"That was before you became an overbearing psychotic vampire!" She yelled, seething. "It wasn't like you were any better…the poor, abused child of the family…completely broken." He taunted. "If you weren't already dead, I would kill you already."
Naomi finally took the opportunity to notice who else was with Yuki. Zero, who had a look of disgust at the vampire next to her, and she wasn't sure if he also felt disgusted looking at her…Then she saw Rima Touya, who stood there her face expressionless, not even one emotion could be interrupted. And lastly Shiki Senri, whose expression seemed to even more like an enigma than Rima.
"What are you guys doing, just standing there? Shouldn't you be attempting to save my life, instead of letting me die?"
"That would be impossible, because you rather die than let me get hurt. Ever."
"Like I said…that was before….you know, when you were still human…"
"I still am the same person, Nami," he says softly. "Oh yeah…trying to suck out my blood on a daily basis is normal." He grinned, "It is normal for me…"
"Shut up." She glared at him, before turning around and facing her audience, "Hello, girl captured by a monster here," she waved her hand, trying to get their attention.
Before she could continue, she watched as a powerful blood whip came, sending him into the wall. She looked back, and saw Shiki Senri move forward, the blood whip holding her captor tightly. "Well…normally our little feeding sessions aren't this violent." He chuckled.
"Alex..." Naomi said his name softly, as she walked to him in everyone's amazement and shock. "Don't hurt them…please…" she said stroking his brown hair softly, "hurt me instead…" Alex chuckled, "Nami, if you keep sacrificing yourself to me like that you will die. How am I supposed to let you live, if you keep doing that."
"I know how much you hate not being in control…but please stop it."
His gaze softened for a moment, before he whispered, "For you."
He slowly walked out of the room, ignoring the daggers that were being glared at him by Zero and the confused look that belonged to Yuki.
Naomi fell, coughing slightly, "Naomi-chan!" Yuki gasped and ran to her, the first to break free from shock. "I'm…fine…" Naomi sputtered, coughing badly as she tried to get up, only to fall back on the floor. "Okay…maybe I am not so fine, but it is okay…He didn't hurt you…" Naomi smiled, and right then everyone had to look at her in wonder. How does she smile when she is in that situation?
"There is another level E in here…he probably came from the smell of blood. I'll go get him." Zero said walking off, not bothering to spare another glance at Naomi. Yuki shot an apologetic look at Naomi, before running off to find him. Naomi glanced around looking at whoever was left, just Shiki Senri.
"Where did…everyone go?" she asked him gasping. "Well…Rima went back to the photo shoot to tell some lie of why I can't make it. Zero went to hunt some Level E vampire, so that leaves you with me." He replied, shrugging his shoulders.
"So what are we going to do now?"
Well this is awkward, coughing to death in front of a vampire who doesn't have any sense to go take me to the infirmary.
Bastard.
"I heard that." She heard a chuckle come from his mouth as he looked at her, a smirk playing on his lips.
"I said that out loud?" Naomi asked to no one in particular, before averting her eyes at him, "Hey! What are you…doing?" She yelled/asked/coughed "Taking you to the infirmary…" he said, with a smirk on his face.
"Can you stop smirking?"
"No."
"Why."
"Cause I just won."
"What are we playing?"
"I don't know, but whatever we are playing…I am winning."
"Bastard."
"And proud of it."
AN-Review. I would love to hear your thoughts on this. I don't know about you, but I think I am going to let you all decide on the pairings. The next chapter, Nami will meet the Night Class and Chairman Cross. More pairing choices, but my Nami will not get together with Alex, unless the magority want that to happen. There is only Zero and Shiki for now, but there will be more choices Shiki seems OOC at first, but what can I say? It is a story I can do WHATEVER i want. But I will take your advice too.
Review.
Now.
I am talking to you.
So.
Review.
