Chapter 1, will anyone tell me how it is? Please?

Chapter 1~A Family Reunion and the Past?

~ Elvira ~

I woke up with a start. Ever since I had been ordered to go help Kaien Cross I had been dreaming that night every time I fell asleep. I looked out the window of the cab, I could see Cross Academy in the distance. I was to join Cross Academy, that was all I knew at the moment.

I heard that Zero's entire family had been killed, including Zero. Man was I in for a big surprise.

~ Yuki ~

Zero and I were heading to the headmasters office. He said to go there about a forty-five minutes before we had to go protect the Night Class. When we arrived, the headmaster explained.

"We're getting a new student today, they will be joining you in the prefect duties as well. They should be here any minute. I want you to be nice. Just then there was a knock on the door. "Come in." the headmaster said. When the door opened I saw the cab driver carrying some luggage, when he moved out of the way I saw two guns facing each other. One was Zero's Bloody Rose while the other was a metallic black and had a silver columbine etched into it. I also saw a curvy script spelling out 'Frozen Columbine' on the side. But as quickly as the guns came up, they were dropped on the ground. Zero and the new girl were pointing at each other with wide eyes. Then the girl ran up and glomped Zero. Surprisingly, he hugged back. I could tell the girl was trying not to cry.

"I thought you were dead..." she said softly.

"Same here, when I heard that you had been found I was so happy. But then they said that they were to late."

"Okay, whats going on here?" I asked super confused. I saw the two of them give a smile. When they stood up, I got a real good look at the girl. She had long silky black hair that went all the way down her back. She had bangs covering the right side of her face, but she tucked them behind her ear. She had black crystal studs in the normal place and slightly above there on both sides. She also had a few silver rings on the shell of her ear on both sides. On her left ear a chain was connecting a hoop on the top of he ear one of the studs. She also had a small black crystal stud on the right side of her nose. Her eyes were a dark gray. She had on black mascara and thick eye liner on her eyes. Her lips were a dark frosty red that brought out by her pale complexion. She was slightly taller than I was. She was wearing skin-tight black leather pants, a tight black and white striped long sleeve shirt with a black short-sleeved shirt that had a silver moon on it, both a little short and showing a little but a her flat stomach, black combat boots that came up half her shin, and a black trench coat the was opened up with the sash tied in the back. She had a black lace choker with a skull on the front and a silver locket hanging around her neck.

She walked up and held out her hand, which I took. "Hi, I'm Elvira Nightshade. Also know as 'Mistress of the Dark' by the Association. There was a request from Headmaster Cross asking for someone to help you guys out with prefect duties. He also asked that the person be, and I quote, 'someone my lovely son can bond with'. I was wondering why they sent me, but I guess I know why now." she said in a smooth voice.

"I still don't get it, are you two related or something? You look kind of similar."

She gave a small laugh "I wouldn't be surprised, do you want to tell her or should I?" she asked Zero

"Go right on ahead." she gave a small nod, then turned back to me.

"The night before my eighth birthday, my family and I were attacked by a crazed Level E. Zero and his master came just in time to stop her from killing me, but they were too late to stop her from killing the rest of my family. I was given my mothers gun, a picture frame, a locket, and boots to represent my starting to train as a vampire hunter. After they saved me, I was taken back to Zero's family and I lived there for about one and a half years kind of like a daughter/sister. Then I was taken away to increase my training." she said

"I still don't get how he thought you were dead." I said. I saw her stiffen.

"I'll show you two latter..." she said looking at the ground.

"Well here's you're school uniform. You can go change if you want. Then you can go start by helping with Change Over." The headmaster said handing Elvira the Cross Academy uniform. She gave a nod and left the room. When she came back, I saw that she now had on a black and red lace finger less glove on her left hand. Zero handed her her gun and she put it away under her skirt like how I had Artimas. Then we went to the Moon Dorms. We were a little late.

"Let's see how you handle this, Elvira." Zero said gesturing to the crowd. She gave a nod. Was Zero crazy! No one but Zero can handle the day class girls! Elvira gave a sharp whistle and then yelled

"Okay everyone, shut up and let me introduce myself." it all went silent "I'm Elvira Nightshade. A new student and Prefect. I don't know how Yuki and Zero handled this, but from what I've heard Zero scares the crap out of all of you, and Yuki can't control you guys. Now you have two choices. I can make it so I scared you more than Zero, or we can find a happy medium." she waited in silence, then one of the 'chosen ones' walked up to her. The 'chosen ones' think they are perfect for the Night Class. They're the most trouble.

"Who the hell do you think you are? You just walk in here like you own the joint and like you've got so much more swag then everyone else." she said. I went to walk over to them but Zero stopped me. He had a smirk on his face. "You're probably just like Yuki. You're going to hog the Night Class aren't you!" she yelled. I saw something snap in Elvira. There was silence when a slap rang through the area.

"You know what?" Elvira growled as the girl held her cheek "I don't give a damn who you are, who you think you are, or who you think I am. I'm here because the Headmaster asked me to be. If anything I hate the Night Class as much as Zero does, maybe more so. For all I care you can have them all to yourself, but a word of advice. They wont give you the time of day. They'll take what they want from you then act like they don't even know you. Your precious 'Idol' more than the rest. If you want to be used, go right on ahead, but don't blame me if it costs you your life." she said angrily. The girl ran away crying. She glared at the rest of the girls and they all got in line silently. When the gates opened, Hanabusa snuck up behind Elvira, before he could even touch her she grabbed his hand and spun it behind his back in a painful hold.

"And so they come." Elvira said with a smile, completely different from just a moment ago.

~ Elvira ~

"I see you're the new Hunter. Just like Zero over there. You even smell delicious to." then he leaned in close "I'll have to pay you a visit later..." he whispered in my ear. Before I could stop it, it happened. He gave a surprised yelp. "What the hell did you do! I can't see!" he growled at me. Just then Kaname walked up and dispersed it.

"I see you're a part of the Nightshade family." he said. Hanabusa gave a surprised gasp and then kneeled before me.

"Don't bow to me, Vampire." I growled low enough for our little group to hear, but not the Day Class who looked confused.

"But you're-" Kaname cut him off.

"The Nightshade Hunter family. They're considered royalty to the humans for no apparent reason and to Hunters and Vampires because of their unique abilities. In this case, you are considered 'Mistress of the Dark' because of your abilities and the tendency to hunt at night. Am I right?"

"Aren't you late for class, Pureblood?" I asked

"Yes we are, we should be going. I wish to speak to you again sometime soon though." then he walked off with the rest of the Night Class.

"Okay people." I said turning to the Day Class. "Time to head to the dorms, if anyone one person ventures off course, I will follow you like I'm herding sheep until you get the ponit that it's time to go. Now move it!" I said. The Day Class hurried off.

"What was the whole thing with Hanabusa bowing to you?" Yuki asked. I gave Zero a look, he gave nod.

"I'll tell you after patrol along with the whole supposed to be dead thing. Now let's go." I said

~ After Patrol ~

~ Headmaster's Building ~

The three of us sat down at the table with cups of hot chocolate. I was staring at the surface of the liquid when Yuki asked the question I wanted to avoid.

"So why did Hanabusa bow to you?" she said. I gave a deep sigh.

"I'm a Vampire Hunter like Zero as you know. The Blood Lies of the Kiryu's and The Nightshade's have been close in some ways. They are also well-known. They both have amazing skill but the Nightshades are know and looked up to for another reason. They are considered royal because of their abilities. It's said that they are descended from Pureblood vampires. That's why they have special abilities."

"So wait, do you drink blood or something?" Yuki asked, I gave a small smile.

"No, if we were it would have been centuries ago. The vampire DNA would have been taken over and altered by the Hunter DNA."

"But Zero-"

"Zero's different. He wasn't born with Vampire blood. He was bitten and changed by a Pureblood. It's that simple." I said

"How'd you know?" Zero asked looking at the table

"Simple, I know your family was attacked by a Pureblood and you were the only one left. And no, I' don't hate you. Yes I dislike vampires but not Level E's. They are human beings. When they lose their humanity, I kill them to put them out of their suffering. You still have your humanity, therefore part of you is still human, well Vampire Hunter."

"Vampire Hunters aren't human?" Yuki asked

"Not really, they can endure more than a normal human can."

"Wow, so um...what about you being supposedly dead?" Yuki asked.

"Follow me..." I said walking to the Headmaster's bathroom. After everyone was inside I closed and locked the door. Luckily I had a tank top under my hoodie. I slipped off the black clothing and pulled my shirt up to just below my breasts. Yuki gasped when she saw the scars.

"What happened?" Zero asked

"Shortly after I left I was kidnapped by a vampire. I was allowed to only sleep during the weekends and I had Wednesday's to clean my self up. The scars you see aren't all of them. He took a lot of my blood during our 'activities'. The Vampire Council gave the Hunters permission to kill the vampire if they found me. I was in bad shape when they found me, so they pronounced me dead just in case I had any other undead followers."

"Why would they need permission to kill him and what 'activities'?" Yuki asked, she was so naïve. I could see Zero shaking in anger.

I gave a deep sigh. "Yuki," I said slowly "I was raped by a Pureblood vampire."
