CHAPTER-2: WHERE AM I?
Light….light was the first thing that flooded the boys eyes as he blinked them open. Next was the fact that he didn't he was and then he felt the presence of someone near by him. He slowly turned his head to the side to see a pretty young girl, probably a few years older than himself, with long chocolate brown hair and fiery brown eyes reading a book in the candle light." Where Am I?". He thought for a few moments past until the girl noticed the eyes looking at her.
"Oh! Hello". She said softy. "How are you feeling?". She smiled at him showing her fanged teeth.
At this sight the boys eyes widened and in his panic he jump up from the sofa he was laying on and took a step towards the only door he could see in the room before his vision swam and he fell to the floor with a thug clutching his head.
The girl immediately ran to him from her seat and tried to calm him, but as soon as she tried to touch him he let out a yelp of terror and cowered away from her as tears fell from his eyes.
"Mum, Mum". She called out in a panicky tone as she backed away from the boy.
The next thing the boy heard was footsteps coming towards the room he was in and then the door opened reviling a tall woman with long curly hair, the same colour as the girl in the room, a tall man and a younger man hurrying in behind her.
"Oh god, oh god I´m gonna die" the boy thought as he sensed that the other people in the room where vampires too, and more tears fell from his fearful eyes.
"Yuki, darling what happened" the older vampire man asked.
The girl told them what had happened and then the woman turned to the boy who was now pressing himself into the far wall as if trying to become invisible with a gentle motherly smile. "Its ok dear, we won't hurt you, we just want to help" she said.
The boy just seared at her with wide eyes like she was going to attack him and then made another attempt for the door this time more successfully as he reached the handle only to be grabbed by the younger vampire man in the room. As much as he tried to kick and punch at his captor he couldn't get louse and then the vampire woman came over to him and placed a gentle hand on his forehead.
"Ok, this is it., deaths finally coming for me, I wonder if there really is a heaven?". The boy thought as he started to feel dizzy and then distend into blackness.
"Oh Mother did you really have to sedate him". Yuki asked innocently
"I wish I didn't have too, but it was for his own good". Juri sighed.
"Your mothers right, sweetheart, he could of hurt himself or one of us in that state. We'll try and talk to him calmly when he wakes up". Haruka agreed.
Juri and her husband left the room after laying the boy back on the sofa and Yuki was about to sit back down with her book when Kaname turned towards her. "You go get some rest sis, I'll watch him". He said calmly as he sat down next to the boy.
"Are you sure?". She questioned, when he nodded she got up from her seat and headed for the door. "Thanks, Kaname". She added before leaving.
Kaname sighed as his attention turned back to the sleeping boy in front of him. He had stunning silver hair and the palest skin possible and stunning lilac eyes. He was dressed in nothing more than a pair of ripped and rugged dark trousers and a what once would have been a light coloured shirt in the same state and and a rag of o blanked around his shoulders covering all his upper torso so Kaneme couldn't see his body very well, and every thing on the boy was covered and painted with ether blood, mud and dirt or both.
Kaname sighed again; it hurt him to think that he was related to the monster that had done this to the boy. Just then the boy stirred in his sleep then began opening his eyes slowly. As soon as he saw Kaname the fear return to his eyes again.
"Shhh! Its ok, I wont hurt you, i just wanna help". Kaname soothed, when the boy just sired at him without moving he continued. "I'm Kaname Kuran, me and my friends found you last night being attacked by vampires and we rescued you and brought you back here to my home to protect you.". He finished.
The boy just sired at him for several minutes while thinking things over."Can I really trust him?". The boy thought. Then nodded his head in understanding. He didn't know why but he trusted the man in front of him. Kaname then let his eyes wonder to the boys clothes.
"First of all I think we need to get you out of those old clothes and into a nice hot bath. What do you think?". Kaname asked.
The boy just looked himself over before nodding his head in agreement.
Kaname stood and walked towards the door and the boy followed close behind him as they walked out the door and down the long hallway towards the bathroom. Then Kaname opened the door and began filling the large bath tub.
When it was almost full Kaname turned his head back towards the boy who was just standing in the doorway shaking.
"Are you not going to undress?" he asked in curiosity. The boy just stayed rigid as Kaname stood and walked towards him. "Would you like some help?" he continued.
The boy quickly shook his head in disapproval and dropped the blanket from around his shoulders to the floor.
Now Kaname could see all the holes and blooded cuts in the boys once white shirt and then gasped in horror when the boy removed his shirt as well.
The boys back and chest were completely covered in large cuts, scratches, burn marks and purple and black bruises. Kaname couldn't even begin to imagine what the boy had been through.
As the boy was about to remove his trousers he suddenly turned towards the brunette vampire and glared at him. Kaname quickly understood and turned the other way so he was facing the wall.
Once the boy was sure he wasn't being watched he removed the rest of his clothing and stepped into the tub.
When he was settled Kaname turned to face him again with a comforting smile. "So are you hungry?". He asked.
Just then as if on cue the boys stomach growled and he looked away in embarrassment.
"Its ok, I'll get you some food". Kaname laughed as he let the bathroom and returned a few minutes later carrying a tray of cheese and ham sandwiches which he handed to the boy in the bath.
The boy just glared at him in weariness. Kaname just sighted and said " Its not poisoned and the took a bite out of one of the sandwiches and the passed the plate back to the boy who eagerly took it and within minutes emptied it and passed it back to Kaname who just laughed again.
Soon after the boy started to nod off. "Hey you cant sleep in the bath" Kaname said before standing up and heading for the door. "Stay there, I'll be right back". He continued before leaving the room.
The boy just sighed as he waited until the brunette returned carrying some clothes. First Kaname grabbed a towel and handed it to the boy before turning away from him.
When kaname wasn't looking the boy stepped out of the bath and into the towel as Kaname turned to face him again.
Then when the boy had dried himself a bit Kaname knelt down in front of him with a pair of black boxers for the boy to step into. Once he had done so the boy dropped the towel as the vampire held a white shirt above his head. The boy lifted his arms int the air as Kaname lowered the shirt over his head.
The boy turned to look at himself in the mirror and his eyes widened at the sight before him. His skin was so pale and he had huge shadows under his eyes. The next thing he noticed was that the clothes he'd been dressed in where way to big for him, the boxers coming down to his knees and the shirts looked more like a dress.
"Come on". Kaname said breaking the boy from his trance. They both left the bathroom and began walking down the hall when they met Juri half way.
"My, aren't you looking better, I'm glad you've calmed down now". Juri said sweetly to the boy before bending down and Passing the boy a cup of tea. "Here, this will help you relax a bit". She said.
The boy just looked at the liquid and smelt it before shakily handing it back to the mother vampire.
Juri frowned as she took the cup back. "What's wrong sweetheart? Don't you like tea? Would you prefer a glass of warm milk?". She asked.
The boy just sheepishly nodded his head. "Ok, I'll go get you one". She replied to the boy. Then she turned to Kaname. "Why don't you take him to bed and I'll bring it up in a few minutes".
Kaname just nodded in agreement and him and the boy continued walking down the corridor until they reached a large wooden door which the vampire opened and hey walked in.
In the room there was a large double bed, a wardrobe, and a writing desk. The colour schema of the room was a dark and pale blue.
""Here we are". The Brunette said. "This will be your new room". The boy just steered at him in disbelief; he'd never seen such a big bed in all his life.
Kaname walked him over to the bed and pulled back the covers for the boy to jump in, which he did, and then tucked him in. A few seconds later Juri knocked on the door and walked in with the glass of warm milk and passed it to the boy before leaving.
Once the boy had finished drinking he handed the glass to Kaname who accepted it. Then the vampire stood and turned to leave but suddenly stopped and turned back to face the boy again who was steering at him.
"What's your name?" Kaname calmly asked. The boy stayed silent and just as Kaname was about to give up and leave the room.
"Z..Ze..Zero". The boy replied in a scratchy cracked voice.
Kaname just smiled as he continued walking towards the door. "Good night, Zero". He said before leaving the room and closing the door.
