Chapter 8: Revelation and turning point
Story begin~
(with Yuu and Ziell – Yuu's room)
"Ziell are you finished with the preparation?"
"Not yet…give me five more minutes...Wait I already got it, it's finished!"
"Okay then, let's begin"
"Wait a sec, I have one more touch to make sure it would be safe"
"Just hurry up, we have to get this over with so he could proceed, and we're going up soon"
"I know, I know… Geez that Raito is always making us do the hard part every time"
"Don't complain, we both know that this is for the best"
"I know, but still…If we lost the two of them, it would be a real shame"
"A real shame indeed, but we must do it, for their sakes"
"Okay it's ready"
"Good"
With that being said, Ziell started to chant a strange language that only he himself know what it meant. After a few phrases were voiced, a large magic circle started to form on the floor near where Zero was.
(With Zero – Dream~)
Zero was slowly waking up again after being woken up several times and was put to sleep again for several times in a day's time. But this time, instead of seeing Kaname, he saw Yuu and Ziell in front of him. It was like the two of them expected Zero to wake up.
"It took you long enough, for a second there I thought you had crossed the other side or something" Yuu joked with a serious tone. Somehow, seeing Yuu reminded Zero of Senri Shiki.
"What do you guys want with me?!" Zero shouted suddenly. He had had enough. First of all, a guy he just met kidnapped him, and then there were those strange dreams disturbing his every thought, and then there were two weirdoes trying to talk to him. And it was draining him, both mentally and physically, but mostly mentally.
"You should explain it to him, Yuu. And by that I mean everything necessary" Ziell suddenly said breaking the silence caused by Zero's uproar.
"Fine" yuu muttered and he stepped closer to Zero "Hey kid, do you now the legend of the blue sacred seed?"
Zero shook his head "No, I don't know" he answered
"Then, let me tell you, here's how the legend goes 'One who ate the blue sacred seed will have his/her life changed drastically. If one who ate it was a human being, he/she has a fifty-fifty chance to die within a week after that person ate the sacred blue seed. If one who ate it was something else, be it an ex-human, vampire, werewolf, angel, fallen angel, or a demon, he/she WILL find his fated one and MUST be mated to that fated person. His/her fated one and their most likely future will be shown in a form of a dream. If they failed to be mated in a week time, he/she would die and so is his/her fated one. But, if the one who ate it didn't know about the legend, be it a human being or another, he/she wouldn't be affected whatsoever.' But let me tell you a little secret, there was a last part that were often forgotten by the ancestor. It goes like this 'During his seventh day, the person who ate the fruit would do anything, and by that I mean ANYTHING to finish the bond/ to be mated to his fated one"
"What a strange legend, but what are you trying to point out here?" Zero asked warily.
"You, Zero, ate the sacred blue seed"
The truth hit Zero square on his face. Unknowingly he murmured "So, either I'm going to have a family with three children with that fucking pureblood or I'm going to die?"
(With Kaname, Aidou and Kain – Germany – Airport)
"I can't believe that it's already night time" Aidou groaned in frustration. The three of them had just arrived in Germany and they were currently heading to the 'YXZ 901' corporation building. Even though they took Kaname's private jet to get there, it still took a while. And Aidou being Aidou, he didn't like being confined in a strange flying object that constantly vibrates, not to mention the strange suffocating aura emitted by his beloved pureblood prince that constantly made him on edge since they got inside the confine of the private jet.
While Aidou's statement wasn't really being directed at anyone in particular, Kain being the good Samaritan, said what he had in mind about his cousin's ridiculous statement. "Well, what do you expect Hanabusa? Just think of the distance between Japan and here. Six hours of flying can be considered fast." Kain stated simply, gaining some of his cousin's attention. Really, his cousin can be quite a handful sometimes, and not forget to mention that he was a blabber mouth. From time to time Kain would wonder of why he put up with his cousin annoying behavior. Maybe it was because he had known Aidou since he was little, yes that's the most probable answer, but his heart knew what the truth was and it was certainly not that. Suddenly, Aidou spoke again, breaking him from him self-musing.
"Yeah, I know!" Aidou puffed his cheek as he pouted "I'm just saying" he murmured silently.
Somehow regaining his confidence, Aidou spoke again. This time it was a question and it was directed to the brunette who is walking ahead of the two nobles. "Kaname-sama, may I know why did you decide to rescue that pitiful Level D?" Aidou asked bluntly. That question had been floating in his mind for sometimes now and since he was expected to be a part of the rescue team, he wanted something to encourage himself to save the prefect whom he always thought as a piece of dirt that was not worth mentioning.
Kaname stopped dead on his tracks before he turned around to face Aidou. His usual burgundy eyes turned into slits and the rude blonde could see that there were a slight red in those piercing chocolate orbs. "My reasons are none of our concern" he said sternly. Despite what he just said, his mind was in total wreck. He himself didn't know why he wanted to save the silver prefect. At first he thought it was because of his duty as a guardian to the school, but now he wasn't so sure that it was his real reason. He was so sure that he hated the prefect, so how could his hatred change in so little time? Unless, he never hated the prefect in the first place. Sure, the silverette occasionally irked him in a way that only the silver beauty could do, but maybe it just made him more fascinated by his peculiar acts. When he thought about it, he felt like it might just be the answer. And the answer is fact that he never hated the silver beauty. If he had to admit, he might even love the boy. Then his mind drifted off into the past, he remembered the first time they met each other. At first, what caught his attention he was his unusual fascinating beauty, his silver soft hair, and those gleaming lilac orbs. Then, there was his rebellious act which only made him more interesting in the pureblood's eyes. Even when the little boy hurt him, it pleases him deep down. It made him sure that there were still some people left in this disorderly world who have free will and the existence of freedom. Yes, freedom….that's what he wanted the most in this cruel world he lived in. Freedom.
As they continued their way to exit the airport, Kaname's eyes caught a slight glimpse of Raito's silver hair and his piercing green eyes. With the elegance and stealth of a cat, Kaname left the duo and moved passed many people with ease. There was one thing in his mind, and that is to beat the life out of Raito. He will make him pay for kidnapping Zero. Without him realizing, he was already outside the airport. He looked around, but he found no trace whatsoever from the thief. Somewhere in the distance, he could hear rapid footsteps and decide that it would be best to keep his guard up. When he realized that the footsteps were coming from his companion he relaxed and waited until they come to him.
Aidou and Kain who could finally catch up with the pureblood huffed heavily. They had bumped into a million people inside the airport and it was really tiring, why wouldn't they if they got hit every time they bumped into someone and also let's not forget about the chasing and the hiding from a mass of girls and angry boys. How the pureblood managed to get away easily despite his appearance, they didn't know and they most likely wanted to know how. "K-kaname….Sama…is there something bothering you?" the blonde asked as he tried to catch his breath. He always place the brunette at the top list of his concern.
"It's nothing, I thought I saw someone I know" The pureblood answered coolly. "Let's be on our way"
Both Kain and Aidou nodded in response. They know that the question was not up for discussion and so they will not mention it until their king deemed that they were to know his answer.
"It's good to know that you are finally here Kaname-sama" Raito suddenly appeared before them in kneeling position. A huge smile adored his seemingly innocent face.
Kaname immediately focused his eyes on the silver haired kidnapper in front of him. "Why are you here? And why were you expecting me?" his tone was passive and so was his outer appearance. Deep down, he was like a time bomb. He was ready to blow the silver headed kidnapper's head off his body.
Raito stood up and bowed slightly. "I'm here to make sure of something concerning you Kaname-sama. And I'm expecting you to come here because if you were to come late, HE would die"
"Explain what you mean by that!" Aidou interrupted. He, being an overly talk active person as usual was not happy that he wasn't included in an important conversation.
Sadly, poor Aidou pick a wrong time this time, since he received a death glare from the pureblood which immediately shut him up in an instant.
Inwardly Kaname was throwing a tantrum in his head. He was really, really upset about Aidou's interruption. If that blonde caused Raito to stop giving the information he needed desperately, he would surely, without a doubt kill the blonde noble cold bloodedly.
Raito just smiled as he watched Aidou shut his mouth like a little kid who is getting scolded by his mom. "It's okay Kaname-sama" he said reassuringly "And you two must be Hanabusa Aidou and Akatsuki Kain, I have heard about you two from Kaien." He grinned before adding "He said that Aidou was a bundle of sunshine that just need to have a right direction so that he wouldn't ended up on the street like a whore or something and if I remember correctly he said that Kain is just a shy person underneath his stone wall of a face and heart and maybe if he was lucky he would get laid someday" Raito laughed at loud after he said those words. If his prediction was right, the blonde would gave him a sarcastic remark right… about….. Now.
"What was that? I'm sorry I didn't quite catch what you were saying just now" Aidou asked sarcastically. His eyes were filled with fire and he was clenching his hands tightly. If it wasn't for his cousin Kain stopping him for advancing, he would have frozen Raito on the spot. 'How dare he! I'm so gonna freeze his ass!' The blonde thought angrily.
Raito was outwardly laughing his ass off. That blonde bundle of melted ice is probably going to be the highlight of his evening for the day. The shocked look on Aidou's face when he said the word 'whore' was priceless. His face was physically turned as white and as hard as a brick wall stone!
Finally had quite enough of laughing like a mad man, he coughed and straightened himself up. "Now let's get to the heart of the matter. Now I'll ask you three questions Kaname-sama, and I'm going to need your full support in answering truthfully"
"Okay, what are your questions?" Kaname asked impatiently. He was really not fond of wasting his precious time, moreover if it was concerning Zero.
"Okay, first, do you want to rescue Kiryu Zero?"
"Yes"
"Do you care for the boy, even a little bit?"
"Yes" the pureblood answered again, this time he mentally added 'Of course I care for the boy! If not why would I came here personally in the first place, what a stupid question' he huffed mentally.
"The last question is… would you complete the bond between the two of you?" This time Raito eyes were filled with amusement as he brought out the big gun.
Kaname was shocked, inwardly and outwardly. He really doesn't know what to say. In one hand, he wanted to complete the bond, oh how long had he been longing to bite that slender pale neck of the silverette and to taste his surely unique taste of blood. But on the other hand, he would only made the prefect life worse after he completed the bond because of the senate, and being bonded with a Level D would undeniably bring shame to his family, and he didn't want that. And what's going to happen to Yuki if she found out? But then again, if he didn't complete the bond, he had a feeling that the prefect would die. Now he was in a real dilemma, he really wanted to answer that he would complete the bond, but with Aidou and Kain behind him staring intently at his back, can he say it? He didn't mind if Kain know about the bond, but with Hanabusa…things could get really messy. Finally his mind was made up, he would say it.
"So, what's your answer?" Raito tried to corner him. He knew what the pureblood was thinking and he wasn't planning to be the good guy so soon. And he was really looking forward to how Kaname's going to react.
"I-i…" Started the pureblood unsurely "I…"
