Takuma knocked on the door and asked in a quiet voice, "Senri, are you awake?" The door creaked and made a few not-really-good noises before it jerked open, Senri standing with the door open surprised. His pale hand was curled elegantly around the door knob, his Mahogany hair rather messy-showing that he usually kept his bed-head hair during the day- and his stone blue eyes actually showed some surprise. He was wearing a basic yellow T-shirt and brown jacket, a pair of light brown pants on and he was also barefoot. Needless to say, if there were any fangirls or if Aiko was around, they'd have a heart attack.

"Takuma?" Senri questioned, his voice slightly drowsy. "What's up?" He stifled a yawn. Takuma gave a bright, closed-eye smiling and held up a packet of blood tablets saying,

"I have something to give you!"

Senri blinked and stared blankly at the blood tablet packet Takuma was holding up. He blinked once again before asking confused, "You're giving me these?" Takuma smiled, his golden hair brushing over his eyes slightly.

"Yeah. I'm drinking them too; they taste pretty good." He explained, smiling brightly. A few sparkles even formed around him. "Besides, you said the ones you were taking tasted horrible right?" Senri nearly sweatdroppped.

'I only said they tasted bad, because I could hardly even take them at all.' He thought, slightly bitter. Rima had been giving him blood the past few days so he wouldn't go crazy and attack Aiko-the closest human there was to the Night Class. That and he secretly craved her blood. Senri sighed, thinking for a few moments. It would seem weird if he didn't take them, after all, Takuma doesn't know that Senri can't take the blood tablets-so it would seem suspicious, especially after he told them that the ones he had tasted bad.

"Hmm...well, since you're the one who's giving them to me, Takuma, I guess I could-" Senri reached out to take the packet, only to have Takuma pull them out of his reach with an awkward smile on his face. He gained a tick mark, annoyed. "What are you doing, Takuma?"

Takuma shuddered, placing a hand on his face in distress as he held the packet up in the air, "Se-Senri, don't! It's-It's dangerous!" He trembled and scooted away from Senri slightly, "It's dangerous, so don't come near me!" Senri sighed, glancing at his friend weirdly,

"Takuma, you've been acting weird since yesterday."

"What? Not at all!" Takuma replied cheerfully, reverting back to normal as he held out the packets. "Here you go-no, no, don't take them!" He cried, clutching them to his chest as he scooted away slightly. "You can't!" Senri sweatdropped, unsure of what to make of the situation before yanking the packet it out of his hands. Takuma looked like he was going to collapse at that point.

"Takuma was acting weird?" Rima and Aiko questioned. Senri leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, nodding.

"Yeah, I mean, Takuma's always been strange but...But that was him being manipulated by Sara-Sama, I think." He explained, stating his opinion.

"Didn't he say something about sticking with blondie so he could help someone?" Aiko questioned, frowning. Rima nodded in agreement before holding up a packet of blood tablets.

"And these are the suspicious tablets you were talking about?" She asked, frowning. "I got them from my roommate." Senri took out his packets and plucked off a few blood tablets,

"Oh yeah, those are the ones." He opened his mouth and plopped the blood tablets in, chewing them. Aiko and Rima cried out in alarm.

"Senri, you idiot!" She exclaimed. Rima's blue eyes were wide as she shouted at him,

"Wait a second!" Senri barely cast them a glance as he replied, still chewing,

"It's faster if I just taste it." He swallowed and frowned, stating, "It's good. But what is this taste...?" The scent of sweets filled his nostrils and his gaze traveled over to a glaring Aiko. Her brown hair was barely covering her neck... Senri's mouth went slightly dry at the thought of her strangely sweet blood gushing into his mouth and-Senri snapped out of it, realizing what he was doing. He quickly moved his gaze back to the blood tablets.

"Good grief!" Rima exclaimed, sighing. Her shoulders slumped slightly as she leaned forward, her arms hanging down at her side limply. "Just because you're a Vampire, doesn't mean you can treat your body so recklessly!"

"You're a damn idiot, you know that?" Aiko told him, frowning deeply. Her lilac eyes were burning with slight anger. "Rima's right-Vampire or not, you shouldn't be doing that to yourself. It's ridiculous." Senri looked at them both and he found his gaze trailing back down to Aiko's bare neck, only to force him to look at their faces.

"Thanks for worrying..." He told them softly. His stone blue eyes were full of some emotion that Aiko could not figure out, even as he locked his eyes were hers. It really, truly puzzled her.

"Of course we'd worry." Rima told him, giving him a look. Senri blinked and shifted his gaze of to the orange-haired girl.

Amaya looked out the window from her spot next to Yuuki, frowning. Zero was standing guard by a tree and he looked paler than normal. That one thought caused Amaya's chest to tighten. Was Zero sick?

"Zero hasn't looked good for a while now, but," Amaya and Yuuki turned their heads to see Maria standing there, her blue eyes filled with worry. ",lately, he seems to be getting even worse." He lilac bangs fell over her eyes and she tilted her head. "I wish there was something I could do for him..." Amaya blinked and stared at the girl sympathetically, knowing how she felt from previous experiences.

Yuuki frowned and stared at both girls sadly.

"Good evening, everyone." Sara greeted, walking into the classroom elegantly with her book tucked neatly under her arm and against her side. Vampires levels B and under started to bow repeatedly, saying,

"Good morning, Sara-Sama."

"Sara-Sama, good morning."

"Sara-Sama."

"Good morning."

"Sara-Sama, good morning. I trust you are doing well?" Yuuki and Amaya stood up as Sara walked over to them, telling Yuuki,

"Good evening, Yuuki-San." She then frowned, asking, "You look like you've seen something bizarre. The same thing goes to you, Chouko-San. Pray tell, what is it?"

Aiko had her elbow propped up on the desk, her palm pressed up underneath her chin and propping her head up as she stared boredly at the scene in front of her. She was out of place in the white classroom, wearing the Day Class uniform. Her dark brown hair fell onto her shoulders and rested slightly on her chest, a good deal of neck showing. Her lilac eyes gleamed with anticipation, just waiting for Amaya to snap and yell at the arrogant Pureblood woman.

Rima frowned worriedly, seeing Senri stare hungrily at Aiko's neck. His eyes trailed down her neckline and listened intently to the sound of her blood pulsing through her veins, her heart beating steadily. Her face was slightly flushed from the room temperature, but that only caused his throat and mouth to become even more dry. Rima spoke up, before her friend snapped and actually attempted to drink the human girl's blood,

"Senri?" The mahogany haired boy snapped out of it, jumping slightly at the sound of his name being called. Hand pressed against his cheek, he turned and looked at Rima through half-lidded eyes,

"Hm...? What is it?" Aiko blinked and turned to look at them, curious as well.

"Nothing. Well, actually," She replied quickly, only to remember something.

X.X

Hanabusa set down the bottle of blood tablets, along with the blood tablet packet Rima was given by her roommate, the glass jar making a CLINK sound when it collided with the marble floor. He retracted his pale hand and placed down to his side, his golden blonde hair shining. His bangs framed his face and fell into his eyes, the icy blue glittering with intelligence.

"It's likely the same thing." He told them. Yuuki, Amaya, Senri, and Aiko-along with Hanabusa- were all gathered around in the room, surrounding the bottle. Hanabusa elegantly crossed his arms, continuing, "Akatsuki told me to check into these. We're testing them out right now."

"Ichijou-Sempai said there was going to be a new kind of blood tablet available." Yuuki explained, "I think he was talking about this. He said that Sara-San wanted to improve them." Senri's eyes widened a fraction, it was so small, you would've missed it if you blinked. That would explain why he could take the blood tablets and not hack them up... "Please inform either me or Amaya when the results are in." Yuuki ordered Hanabusa. She glanced up at the blonde with narrowed wine-red eyes. "Depending on the results, we may have to tell the Association." Hanabusa nodded slowly.

"Right, understood." He then pulled something out of his uniform jacket pocket. He held the envelope out to Yuuki who paused as she walked by him, reaching out for the letter. She took it and opened it, revealing a packet of Blood tablets. She frowned deeply and walked off.

"Whelp, I'm headin' to class." Aiko announced, turning heels and walked away. Senri and Rima nodded in agreement, following the brunette.

"Bye."

"Later."

It was silent for a few moments in which Hanabusa and Amaya stood there.

"..."

"..."

"Listen, Hanabusa-"

"Amaya, we need to-" They spoke at the same time and they paused, tensing as they stared at each other. They both swallowed nervously and Hanabusa waved his hands,

"You go first."

"No,no, you can go first!"

"I insist!"

"No, really, you should go!"

"...Fine. We need to talk, come on." Hanabusa latched onto her wrist, surprising the girl, and dragged her down the hallway, up the stairs, until they got to Hanabusa's dorm room. Amaya felt slightly uncomfortable, still not used to be dragged around by people randomly. "Okay, first, you talk. Then I talk, got it?" He asked her, narrowing his eyes slightly. Amaya tensed but nodded, swallowing.

"Right...um, well-I, we-er..." She trailed off before deciding to just blurt it all out. "I think we need to spend some time apart!" Hanabusa tensed, feeling like someone yanked his heart out. He frowned deeply, knowing the reason as to why she would say something like that. "I need some time to clear mymy head and-"

"It's about Kiryuu, isn't it?" He questioned, nearly growling the name out. He doesn't like Zero, never had, never will. And he especially won't because of the lilac eyed prefect trying to steal his fiance away from him. He stepped closer to Amaya, who backed up-only to have her back slammed against the wall. Hanabusa took the advantage of her surprise when she found she was corner, and quickly wrapped his fingers around her wrists, slamming them onto the wall beside her head. "I told you once and I will tell you again, Butterfly." Amaya's eyes widened. Hanabusa hadn't used that nickname in forever. "I will not let Kiryuu of all people, have you. You are my fiance." He leaned down and nuzzled her neck lovingly for a moment before licking it, drawing out a shiver from Amaya and causing him to smirk, and bit down, her blood almost instantly gushing into his mouth.

Amaya didn't flinch, not once. She did however close her eyes and let Hanabusa drink her blood. Her face burned and her heart beat rapidly. Yes, Amaya loved Hanabusa, but it didn't mean that she didn't love Zero as well. She knew this-she was stuck in a love triangle. But, unlike Yuuki, Amaya most likely won't have a happy ending. It was only because of Kaname throwing his heart into the chamber at the end of the manga did she and Zero get together. No, she was either going to end up alone and heartbroken, or stuck in an never ending love triangle. The problem was, she didn't know whom she loved more. Hanabusa Aidou, the man her stole her heart more than once and made her blush and nearly faint so many times she could not even count them. Or Zero Kiryuu, the silver-haired Vampire-Vampire Hunter who managed to make her fall so hard that she was completely uncomfortable and acted like a complete ditz around? The man who she ended up crying over when he told her that he would be the one to kill her one day? The one she told him in such a joking manner that she would just keep on running and never look back?

Now that she thinks about, Amaya really hates Shoujo Manga and Hanabusa is basically reading every single thought of hers just by drinking her blood, isn't he? 'Damn it, I'm gonna punch a bitch!' She thought, gritting her teeth.

Hanabusa's fangs sunk even deeper and another shudder traveled through Amaya's body, a small moan making itself present. She could feel Hanabusa's lips rise into a smirk against her skin, drawing out another shiver. His grip on her wrists looses and traveled down her arm before stopping at her waist and shoulder. He removed his fangs, lapping at the blood and bite mark with his tongue teasingly before trailing kisses up her jaw line. Whenever he neared her lips he move away, drawing out a small groan of disappointment from the red-head. Hanabusa was absolutely loving the effect he was having on the girl.

Amaya couldn't take it anymore and reached up with her hand, gripping his tie and pulling down, causing him to gasp as he was yanked down and his lips collided with hers. Amaya smirked in triumph, kissing his lips hungrily and greedily, she wanted this man, his blood, his body, his everything and she would not let anyone else have him. No, Hanabusa was hers, she thought as she buried her fingers in his hair, Hanabusa wrapping his arms around her waist and pressing her against him, one of her legs wrapping around his waist as they deepened the kiss.

"I-love-you." She whispered as she pulled back for air before kissing him again. Hanabusa grip on her tightened as he moved down to her neck to kiss it,

"I-love you-too, Amaya."

Zero paused in his walking, seeing the familiar Mahogany mop of hair leaning against a tree and plopping multiple blood tablets into his mouth. Senri coughed a few times, some blood splattering against his hands, before licking that off and plopping in a few more blood tablets.

A sense of uneasiness ran through Zero, why, he did not know. He stared at the blue eyed boy, who paused and turned his head, feeling someone staring at them.

"What are you looking at?' He questioned rather rudely.

"Nothing..." Zero trailed off before speaking up, "Where's you Dorm Head? And the Vice Dorm Head?" He added as an afterthought, realizing some of the information he needed to tell Yuuki pertained to her as well.

Senri was silent for a moment before answering, plopping in a few more blood tablets. "No idea. They vanished as soon as break started." Zero frowned, listening to everyone talk about the new tablets and how good they were, before trying to pick up the scent of roses and pomegranates. He picked up the smell of pomegranates first, only it had the scent of lavender mixed into it. He felt slightly enraged at that fact, but pushed the anger and jealousy aside. He walked towards the scent, roses become even more prominent as he headed in that direction.

'Amaya and Yuuki must be together.' He thought in realization. He caught Amaya talking to Yuuki, who was holding up a letter and the packet of blood tablets.

"Yuuki, you were called by the President. Why haven't you responded?" Zero questioned, narrowing his eyes.

"Because I have other priorities to take care of first. Amaya decided to help me with them." She explained. The red-head was silent through the whole exchange, not saying a word.

"...There's a message, from Kuran Kaname, through the Association President." Zero told the girls, addressing them both this time. "He said that the one who killed Handagi-Sama was him and Jack Chouko, and that Sara Shirabuki and Aliza Chouko were next." Amaya's eyes went wide at the message and she gasped, asking in alarm,

"W-What!? Father would never-but he loves Aunt Aliza-why would he-!?" Amaya was shaking and it seemed like she couldn't handle the fact. "Why would he...?" She trailed off, eyes glazing over in sadness as tears pricked them. Her fists were clenched and trembling. She closed her eyes for a moment, standing up straight and regaining her posture. Her eyes opened and were much more narrow then usual, the emeralds burning with fury and determination. "I'm sick and tired of Kaname's games. I'm going to kill him." She then took a deep breathe and released slowly, giving Zero a goofy grin and laughed, scratching the side of his head. "Though, I'm fairly certain that's what he wants us to think! Ain't that right, Yuuki?" The red-head questioned, grinning.

Yuuki giggled slightly and nodded, clutching her book to her chest, saying, "Yeah, I guess that's what he'd think we'd think." Yuuki then turned back to Zero saying, "Thank you for telling us. I'm just glad to know that he hasn't forgotten me." Anyone could tell how much Yuuki loved Kaname, it was plain as day how much he was hurting her by doing what he was. She frowned, sadness forming on her features, "Or maybe I'm just one of his game pieces..." She blinked and her eyes burned with determination. "In that case, as one of his pieces, I'll do my best in the position I was given. Once this is all over, I'm going to slap him a few times." She started to walk off, Amaya following and suggesting,

"Can you make sure you leave a cut on his pretty-boy face? He deserves, putting us through all this hell." Yuuki laughed halfheartedly at that and paused when Zero reached out and gripped her arm. She turned confused and forced a smile, "What?" Amaya paused, staring at the two and ignored the wrenching feeling in her chest. Zero stared down at Yuuki, unconvinced, before releasing her arm.

"Aidou-Sempai's laboratory looked into these new blood tablets. They've found something that shouldn't be in there." Yuuki informed Sara Shirabuki, frowning deeply. Amaya continued, pointing accusingly at Sara,

"There's Pureblood blood in these tablets!"

"I see my admirers are in the room next door." Sara replied calmly, hands overlapping and resting on her lap, smiling innocently. Yuuki frowned,

"I wonder whose was used... It's certainly not mine."

"Indeed." Sara replied, her smiling growing even wider. "It's mine." Yuuki furrowed her eyebrows, exclaiming,

"Sara-San! You do realize how dangerous our blood is, right?" She questioned, using a tone that suggested that Sara Shirabuki was an idiot. She blinked in surprise when Takuma moved in front of Sara protectively. "Ichijou-Sempai?"

"Takuma?" Amaya questioned, surprised. Takuma did not answer, his bangs falling over his face so you could not see his expression.

"The blood I was born with and the power I hold," Sara began, blue eyes glinting. ",If I don't use it well, don't you think it's the same as dying?" She questioned. "Rather than someone using me, I'll be using my abilities to the fullest. Perhaps that something I can't do?"

"You're a damn idiot." Amaya stated bluntly, green eyes flashing dangerously as she growled. "You're being too damn arrogant and doing something people most certainly don't wish for!"

"Yes, that is something we can't forgive!" Yuuki agreed, crushing the envelope in her hand. "We will stop this!"

...Silence...

Sara burst out into giggles, her hand covering her mouth elegantly. "What you just said; are you talking about Kaname-San?"
