Hello again!!!! I hope you guys all had (or are having) an awesome Spring Break! Thank you so much to everyone who has reviewed. You guys are amazing!
HeadstrongNozomi: Don't worry; Senna will have her revenge.
akiharu-chan: I think I put at the end of one of my author's notes that these are all flashbacks to when she was tiny.
springblossem: I'm still not too sure about the ZeroxYuki thing. She broke his heart pretty badly and I don't know if I can forgive her for that.
guardianranger: He spanked her on the bum. He wouldn't ever slap her…I don't think anyways.
"I don't want her to come." Senna pouted.
Kaname sighed. "That's not very nice, Senna. Sara has been wanting to see you again ever since the soiree."
Senna folded her hands across her chest. "Yeah right. She just wants to take Ichi-nichan from me. I saw how she was looking at him."
Kaname rolled his eyes. "Why don't you go play? The guest will be arriving in a few hours and Rima will want to get you ready."
Senna stuck her tongue out at Kaname and quickly scampered out of the room. She shuffled around the Moon Dorm, not looking forward to Sara coming to her birthday party at all. She perked up when she saw Senri. "Senri-nichan, there's a big problem!" She screamed as she attached herself to the unsuspecting Senri's leg.
Senri sighed and picked the small vampire up. "What's wrong?"
Senna made her eyes water, as though she were about to cry. "Kaname-san invited that stupid Sara girl. She's gonna try and take Ichi-nichan from us and we need to protect him!"
Senri stared at her with a bored expression. "What's in it for me?"
Senna thought for a moment. "Pocky. Lots and lots of pocky."
Senri sighed. "What do you need me to do?"
Ichijo raised an eyebrow as he felt someone tugging on his pants. "Senna, why are you putting pocky in my pockets?"
Senna waved her hand dismissively. Her auburn hair was in a messy up do with ringlets framing her face. She wore a long sleeve red dress with a pink bow tied around the waist. "This is to help keep Senri-nichan nearby all evening."
Ichijo picked Senna up once she was done stuffing his pockets. "And why does Shiki need to be near me?"
Senna hugged him tightly, burying her face in his neck. "To protect you from the evil Sara."
"Senna, is this what you wanted me to do?" Senri walked up to the two. He held out three yardsticks taped together to Senna.
Senna clapped her hands excitedly. "Yes! Thank you so much, Senri-nichan!" She held out a piece of pocky.
Senri snatched the pocky from his clone and handed over the taped yardsticks.
Ichijo's eyes widened. "What on earth is that for?"
Senna rolled her eyes as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. "This is to make sure she doesn't get within three yards of you. If I can hit her with this, she's too close."
Ichijo chuckled nervously. "Senna, you really shouldn't do that. She is a pureblood, you know? You could get in serious trouble."
Again, Senna rolled her eyes. "Please, Ichi-nichan. I'm so sick of purebloods and their holier than thou attitude. They've caused me nothing but trouble since I was born. I'll treat them just like I treat Aidou."
"Couldn't you at least treat them how you treat me?" Ichijo asked pleadingly.
Senna thought for a moment. "Only Kaname-san. I don't like Sara so she gets treated like how Aidou does when he gets annoying."
"Where's the birthday girl?" Yuki sang as she and Zero approached the group.
Senna waved excitedly at the pair. "Hi, Zero-nichan and Yuki-neechan!"
Zero raised an eyebrow. "Why do you have a giant stick?"
"It's to help keep the evil Sara at bay." Senna beamed proudly.
"Who is Sara?" Yuki asked.
"A stupid pureblood." Senna answered.
"Oh." Zero said. "Well, that's fine then."
Ichijo felt like crying. "Please don't encourage her."
At that moment, a large number of vampires began to appear, causing Zero to become very uncomfortable. "We just came to give you your present."
Yuki held a wrapped box out to Senna. "We had to buy it together because it was a little expensive."
Senna made Ichijo hold her Giant Stick of Doom as she unwrapped her present. She squealed as she pulled out a beautiful crystal butterfly hair comb. "Can you put it on me, Zero-nichan?"
Zero almost smiled as he placed the butterfly in her hair. "You look very cute. We'll see you around."
Senna waved to the two guardians as they walked away. She quickly grabbed the stick from Ichijo and held it out in front of her, glaring at the approaching female. "Stay away from Ichi-nichan!"
Sara chuckled. "My, that's very…quaint, Senna-chan. Do you think your mother would have approved of your behavior?"
Senna waved the stick threateningly in Sara's face. "If you take one more step forward, I'll whap you. How do you know who my mom was anyways?"
Sara tsked at the small vampire. "My dear, everyone knows who your mother was. Why do you think so many parents brought their eligible sons to meet you?" She screamed as the stick was brought down on her head.
"I told you not to come closer." Senna stuck her tongue out. "And I don't wanna marry any of their stupid sons. I'll only marry Aidou-nichan, Akatsuki-nichan, Ichi-nichan, Zero-nichan, or Touga-darling."
Senri almost seemed to be pouting as he tried to get the pocky out of Ichijo's pockets. "Why wouldn't you want to marry me?"
Senna patted him affectionately on the head. "Because that would be like marrying myself and that's wrong."
Ichijo chuckled nervously. "Senna, please put the stick down."
Senna glared at Sara. "No way! If I do, she'll get closer."
"Senna," Kaname came over to the group. "there are some children that would like to meet you."
Senna pouted. "Ichi-nichan has to come with me." She made her eyes wide and innocent. "I'm scared to meet new people."
Senri rolled his eyes. "Who are you trying to fool? You're the one that's friends with the Vampire Hunter."
Ichijo sighed. "If I go with you, will you put the stick down?"
Senna glared over at Sara. "Only if she promises to stay away from us. She needs to go talk to Ruka. They can be annoying together."
Kaname smiled apologetically at Sara. "Will you please acquiesce to her request? It is her birthday after all and I would hate to upset her on her special day."
Sara huffed. "Very well." She screamed as she felt herself get smacked in the shoulder. "What was that for!?"
"Just 'cause I don't like you." Senna stuck her tongue out as she handed her stick over to Kaname. She hopped out of Ichijo's arms and grabbed his hand, leading him to where all the children were. Senri was close behind, still trying to get the pocky out of Ichijo's pockets.
Senna frowned and looked up at Kaname whom had followed them over. "Why is it just boys?"
Kaname smiled. "I thought you didn't like girls. You're always complaining about how noisy they are."
The parents of the vampire children looked anxiously at the dubious vampire girl. They each hoped their son would impress the young daughter of Shizuka and garner them a higher status.
"Sara-hag said that they want me to marry their sons." Senna looked all the boys over. "I don't wanna marry any of them."
Kaname smiled and kneeled down to her level. "You don't have to do anything you don't wish to." He glared up at the parents. "I'm sure none of their parents were foolish enough to think I would allow such a thing." His glare intensified when he saw the parents shuffling around guiltily.
"Sorry, but none of you are good enough to marry our cute Senna-chan." Aidou chirped as him and Akatsuki walked over. "Happy Birthday, Senri and Senna!" He picked the small girl up and nuzzled her cheek affectionately. "You look so adorable, Senna-chan! I could just eat you up."
Akatsuki smiled and kissed Senna's hand. "Are you two ready to open your presents?"
Senna looked pleadingly at Kaname. "Can we? Can we?"
Kaname smiled. "Of course." As Ichijo led Senna over to the table with all the presents, Kaname held the three yardsticks up. "I'll have to ask all of you adults to not come within three yards of Senna. I don't want your idiocy infecting her."
One of the little vampire boy looked questioningly up at Kaname. "May we go watch Senna-sama open presents, Kaname-sama?"
Kaname smiled at the children. "Of course." As the children rushed to follow after Senna, Kaname continued to hold the stick up in front of the parents. "Remember; three yards." He turned on his heels and went over to watch Senri and Senna open their presents.
Senna enjoyed tearing through all the wrapping paper. She received a pearl necklace from Aidou, a huge collection of books from Akatsuki, new clothes from both Rima and Ruka, a diamond flower bracelet from Kaname, and a golden butterfly necklace from Ichijo. Senna hugged all of them gratefully. All the while, she managed to sneakily throw wrapping paper at an irritated Sara. She even played with a few of the vampire boys though she told all of them to tell their parents she couldn't marry any of them.
Ichijo smiled as he carried Senna to her room after the party had ended. He wiped some more cake from her sleeping face. Once he entered her room, he laid her on the bed and began taking her accessories off and her hair down. He smiled warmly when sleepy silver eyes looked at him. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to wake you up."
Senna shook her head and snuggled into Ichijo's warmth. "I wanna stay with you and Senri-nichan tonight."
"Sure." Ichijo helped the exhausted child into a clean nightgown. He held her hand as they walked down the hallway to his and Senri's room.
Senna tugged on his hand. "Wait. I forgot to tell Kaname-san good night." She ran down the hallway to the pureblood's room. She didn't bother knocking as she entered. She tilted her head to the side when she saw Kaname was asleep on his couch, his shoes still on.
"You're so helpless, Kaname-san." Senna sighed as she took his shoes off. She went over to his bed and pulled the blankets off. She dragged them over to the couch and tucked the pureblood in. She kissed his cheek. "Good night, Kaname-san. Thanks for everything."
Kaname smiled as the small girl walked out of his room and closed the door. "You're welcome, Senna."
Hooray!!! I hope this chapter made you all at least giggle a little. BriBri-chan and I had fun planning this one. Review and let me know your thoughts!
