Chapter 8: Zero's Fairy Tale

-30th Century-

Hundreds and hundreds of years passed. Zero's castle was buried. Only the roof of Zero's tower can be seen, though covered in dirt, stones, and shrubs. The days that Kaname still haven't came were tough. When Kain and the others were still alive they would visit here and there, but, when they all died of old age, Zero's sleeping form and the things that surrounded him grew lonely.

Zero was just waiting for his prince. Waiting and waiting. He wouldn't stop waiting, even if it gets lonelier by the second. Even if Zero is asleep, he knows what's happening around him. Then suddenly a prince came flying down to his front.

-Weeks Ago-

A black limo stopped in front of a private academy called Cross Academy. It contained a grade school, high school, and college, and due to it's overpopulated, the chairman was forced to divide the students into two, the Day Class and the Night Class.

A handsome chocolate haired male stepped out of the limo. He was wearing the Night Class uniform which consisted of a white jacket with black linings, a black button up shirt, white slacks, brownish black leather shoes, and a blood red tie. "Kaname-niisama, Papa and Mama wanted to tell you that be careful on your college trip." A long brown haired female said as she fixed her lipstick. She wore the Day Class uniform which consisted of a black jacket with white linings, blood red ribbon, white button up shirt, black knee high socks, black miniskirt, and black leather shoes.

"Yuki, once you're home tell them I'll be fine." Kaname didn't spare Yuki a glance which made her furious. "Kaname-niisama! Kaname-niisama! KANAME-NIISAMA!" Yuki screeched as her face grew red from lack of air. Kaname decided to ignore Yuki, who ranted about being his fiance, and some random shit. Kaname really was against the idea of marrying his younger sister, being a pureblood is something really sad. He went towards his school dorm, they had just returned from visiting their parents.

"Kaname-sama, welcome back to Cross Academy." A silverish brown haired female stated as he entered the Moon Dorm, the dorm for vampires. Don't mistake me, the classess are mixed, both human and vampires are in one classroom. "Ruka, call Takuma, I need to speak to him. Tell him to meet me in my study." Kaname said while the other whole heartedly fullfilled Kaname's command. Kaname went straight to his study which connects to his dorm room.

A blond knocked on the door. Kaname responded with the usual, "Come in." "Kaname-sama, you called?" Takuma showed up with his usual bright smile. "What's up with the location of the trip?!" Kaname looked annoyed. "What's wrong with a little hiking in a moutain?" Takuma answered. "Why pick a very far mountain?" Kaname asked as he thought that there wasn't anything interesting on that mountain. "Because it's special..." To you... Takuma left the last part unsaid.

"Special? How so?" Kaname asked as he leaned back. "Do you know it's name is the Kiryuu Mountain, well before it was called Mount Castle?" Takuma said while Kaname tried to hide the curiousity and nostalgia he felt. "It was called the Kiryuu Mountain because the castle buried underneath it was owned by the murdered Kiryuu family. Then as time passed by the Kiryuus were soon forgotten, thus the mountain was now called Mount Castle." Takuma finished while Kaname grew even more curious.

"Is that so? Anyways you can now leave." Kaname said hiding his curiousity. Takuma chuckled as soon as he closed the door. 'Kaname-sama, you're gonna see your beloved soon.' Takuma thought. "Takuma." A very lovely voice for Takuma said as he turned around and saw his auburn haired lover from the Day Class. "Shiki! Why are you here?" Takuma asked with a cheery voice. "Rima wanted me to talk to you, though I don't know why." Shiki said then walked beside Takuma.

Takuma smiled while silently thanking his vampire classmate. "Anyways, I wanted to talk to you too." Takuma said as they bumped into a lover's love-making. "Aidou and Kain, take those to your bedroom!" Takuma said as he was blushing while Shiki remained the same. Aidou and Kain blushed as they were caught. Kain bowed and apologized as he fixed his Day Class uniform. Aidou dragged Kain to his room. Takuma sighed.

"Why be angry at them? We do those things when were together." Shiki said as he ate a pockey. "But were in my bedroom." Takuma blushed pink. "Yeah and you're a good seme." Shiki said as he walked faster. Takuma stared at him before catching up with a brighter smile.

-With Kaname-Dreams-

Kaname stood in front of a cherry blossom tree. "Kaname." Said person smiled when he heard the voice. He looked at the owner of the voice with a content smile. "Zero..." Kaname smiled as he stared into amethyst eyes. Kaname walked towards Zero. When they were close with each other their lips slowly met. After a small chaste kiss, "I love you." Kaname said while Zero too smiled. "I love you too, but, please..." Zero suddenly became sad. "What is it?" Kaname asked concerned.

"Free me..."

-Dream End-

Kaname woke up before he could ask, 'Why?'. Kaname ran a hand through his hair. 'Who was that? Why did I say "I love you."? How did I know his name?' Kaname thought with a distressed look. 'Free him?' Kaname thought confused while changing his clothes. Today was the day they were going overseas just to go hiking at Mount Castle. Kaname glared back at the morning rays.

"Kaname-sama, It's time." Takuma's voice came from the other side of the door. "I'll meet everyone at the lounge." Kaname said then fixed his clothes. He needed to get his thoughts straight. "Zero, just who are you?" Kaname asked to no one. Kaname walked out of his room towards the lounge. "Kaname-sama." Everyone said then bowed. Kaname took notice of the two humans with them. "Why is Kain and Shiki... Nevermind." Kaname answered his question when he saw Takuma and Aidou with smiles plastered to their faces. One thing he didn't know is that, they're smiling not smiling because of that.

"Let's go." Kaname said as he led the vampires plus two human to the chopper. They were going to meet the two other classroom of Night Class at the mountain.

-Mount Castle-

Kaname and the others left their stuff at an inn at the foot of the mountain. They already started hiking towards the top of the mountain. "I forgot to tell you guys, be careful when stepping. You might step on a weak roof of one of the Kiryuu Castle's Tower. You will fall at that rate." Takuma said warning those who are goofing around. Kaname continued on with a deep thought. He was still thinking about his dream. Soon he was already very far ahead, when suddenly a crack caught his attention. He looked around then took a step. It seems to be a bad idea.

He fell.

-Time Skip-

Kaname woke up when it was already dark. He couldn't stand, his legs were trapped by debris. He looked around, being a vampire gave him an advantage in the dark. What he saw, is something very beautiful. Kaname tried to use his powers to lift the debris, but, he couldn't. He knows that the others are worried about his disappearance. He wanted to leave but at the same time he doesn't want to. He just wanted to admire the beautiful person in front of him. He wondered who would encase a beauty in ice.

"Kaname-sama! Kaname-sama! Where are you?!" He heard his inner circle shouting including the two humans with them. 'I'm here! Huh?' Kaname couldn't use his voice. He couldn't speak. He needed the others to notice him. He then got an idea. He took a sharp thing he didn't know what but he just slit his palm. That got the attention of the others.

"Kaname-sama!" Aidou appeared from the hole that Kaname fell from. Takuma was about to go down there but Kaname told him not to by moving. "But how can we help you?" Takuma asked as Ruka stood in the sidelines feeling nostalgia. Kain took out a long and sturdy rope. "Kaname, tie this on the large debris on your legs." Kain said then threw the other end of the rope to Kaname.

Kaname tied the rope to the large debris. When he signaled that he's done tying. Kain urged the others to help him pull. Kaname stood up ass soon as he was free from the debris. He untied the rope then tied it to the rose shaped ice. Kaname signaled the others to make a larger hole. The others moved and did as told. Then they started to pull the ice up, wondering what it could be. The only ones who didn't wonder were Aidou, Takuma, Shiki, and Kain. They knew who was inside the rose shaped ice.

After pulling the rose shaped ice out they threw the other end of the rope back to Kaname. Kaname tied it around his waist. It was obviously easier to pull Kaname out. As soon as he was out he saw Aidou, Takuma, Kain, and Shiki with a small smile, well, for Takuma's case it was a very big and bright smile. "What do you guys know about this?" Kaname asked as Takuma and the others looked at him.

"It's time for you to remember your past life, Kaname-sama"
