"I'm sorry, Senna-chan." Cross smiled apologetically, being as gentle as possible as he handcuffed her tiny little wrist. He held her hands in one of his own. "Please bear with this for just a little while."

Senna didn't say anything. She simply nodded her head. As soon as Cross released her, she rushed over to Aidou and leaned against his side. She smiled when he picked her up. She would've wrapped her arms around him, but the handcuffs made it difficult for her to do so. She looked at the back of Yuki's head and sighed sadly. Yuki had been just as quiet as Aidou on the ride over. She wished there was something she could do to help both Yuki and Aidou. Stupid Kaname…this is all your fault…

"Kiryu-kun, where are you going?" Cross shouted, snapping Senna from her thoughts.

Zero didn't even look at Yuki as he walked by. "On a hunt. It's urgent." Briefly he made eye contact with Senna. He could see how hurt and upset she was. He almost reached out to her, but he could feel the eyes of all the other Hunters on him and the group.

Senna rested her head on Aidou's shoulder. She didn't call out to Zero. "I wanna go home, Aidou-nichan…" She looked up when she felt someone removing the handcuffs from her wrist. She gave a small smile to Touga, though he did not return it. He gave her hand a small pat, which none of the other Hunters saw. She and Aidou were escorted to a small room where they could rest while Yuki was being questioned.

Aidou put Senna down and went to sit on the edge of the bed. He didn't say a word. He stared blankly down at the floor, barely moving at all. When Senna pushed against his side, he moved enough so she could crawl under his arm and rest against him.

Senna hugged Aidou tightly around the waist. She still didn't know what to say to Aidou. She knew there was nothing she would ever be able to say that would make him feel better. Without realizing it, Senna had begun to cry again. She blinked when she felt Aidou brush away her tears. She looked up at him with tear filled eyes. She opened her mouth to say something, but all that came out was a pitiful hiccup.

Aidou didn't say anything. He stroked Senna's hair as the little girl continued crying and hiccupping. He looked back down when he felt Senna grab his hand.

"Hit me." Senna sniffled out, tears still rolling down her cheeks. She was trying her best to look serious and tough. "If it'll make you feel better, you can hit me."

Aidou rested a hand on Senna's head. He leaned down so that their foreheads were touching. "I'm not going to hit you, Idiot." He looked up and then quickly looked down when Yuki walked into the room.

Yuki knelt down on the floor in front of Aidou. She looked first at Senna, and then at Aidou. "You can go home, Aidou-senpai. I would have been fine coming here on my own. This is my responsibility. I have to find out why. Please wait here with Senna-chan. I have some things I have to do in his place."

Aidou wrapped his arm back around Senna and pulled her close. "Kaname-sama put you and Senna in my care. I'm not going away." His determined gaze wavered and he lowered his head back down. "Why did my father accept me…" He blinked as he was suddenly being hugged by both Yuki and Senna.

Yuki suddenly gasped. "Senna, stay here with Aidou. I'll be right back."

"I think she smelled blood." Senna said when she saw the curious look on Aidou's face. "It's really faint, but I can smell it. You sure you don't want to hit me?"

Aidou couldn't help cracking a small smile. "If I was going to hit you, it would've been when you abducted me and tied me up on the roof."

Senna puffed her cheeks out indignantly. "You still haven't forgiven me for that!" Her face fell and she looked nervously up at Aidou. "Do you hate me now? Kaname adopted me…I'm part of his family…"

"I don't, and I won't ever hate you." Aidou said, putting a hand on Senna's cheek. "I won't hate you, or Yuki-sama, or Kaname-sama. No matter how hard it is right now…"

Senna snuggled back against Aidou's side and hugged him. "I wish we could go back in time. I want things to be like how they were before. When Yuki-neechan was still a human, and everyone was in the Night Class. I liked things better that way. I don't wanna lose anyone else, Aidou-nichan…"

Aidou didn't answer. He stroked Senna's hair until she finally fell asleep. He gently tucked her into the bed before laying down beside her. He held her hand in his. "I won't leave your side. I promise, no matter who else leaves you, I'll always stay by your side."

"Are you ready, Senna?" Yuki asked, smoothing out a wrinkle in Senna's pretty pink dress. "Remember, no matter how scary everyone in there may seem, you have to stay strong and keep your brave face on. Show me your brave face."

Senna puffed her cheeks out and scowled. "Like this?"

Yuki giggled and poked Senna's cheeks until they deflated. "Good enough." She smiled softly and hugged the little girl. "I know things have been hard, but we're going to get through this. We'll stay together as a family, no matter what." Yuki straightened up and took Senna's hand in hers.

Senna looked around nervously as they walked through the long hallway to the room where all the vampires were waiting. She had to do her best to not hide behind Yuki when they entered the room. She stood up straight just like Yuki had shown her, and made eye contact with each vampire in the room.

Yuki squeezed Senna's hand. "I want to restart the Night Class." Yuki declared, not seeing any point in skirting around the issue. "I want to protect the agreement between the Hunter Association and my brother. There's only so much I can do on my own, though…"

One of the nobles scoffed. "You don't need our permission to do anything. You can do whatever you like with your power as a Pureblood."

Yuki shook her head. "The Night Class should be made through a collaboration. I want comrades who will protect the agreement with me. I want to get along with all of you and all the humans as well."

Another noble spoke up. "What do you intend to do about Kaname-sama? We can't deny the possibility that Kaname-sama may become our foe. Yet, you'd rather discuss restarting the Night Class than what to do about Kaname-sama. With all due respect, I highly doubt you'll find anyone to collaborate with you."

"That's not true." Senri said softly. He and Rima stepped through the doorway and stood beside Yuki. Senri sighed and picked Senna up when she began tugging impatiently on his sleeve. He kissed her cheek and then nuzzled his nose with her. "Hello, Little Me. It's been a while." He looked back at the nobles. "We'll collaborate with her. We understand what she's talking about."

Rima looked around curiously. "You didn't ask Aidou-san, did you?"

"Yuki-neechan didn't want to ask him right now." Senna piped up, glaring over at the nobles. "He's dealing with enough right now."

One of nobles smirked. "Well then, let me be frank with you; we have no desire to end up like Aidou-dono. We have no guarantee that you won't do to us, what Kaname-sama did to Aidou-dono. Aidou-dono's son must be even more suspicious of you than we are."

"Will you punish us for not following you?" One lady noble asked nervously. "Why don't you just use your Pureblood powers to make us follow you?"

"She's incapable of doing something like that. I believe in her."

Senna knew she was supposed to keep her serious face on in the presence of the nobles. She couldn't help the huge smile that broke across her face when she recognized the voice. She reached around Senri and hugged Aidou tightly around his neck.

"This is weird." Senri muttered, finally pulling Senna away from Aidou so their faces weren't so close together.

Aidou gave Senna a small smile before going to stand beside Yuki. "Sorry for the intrusion. I'm also collaborating with her."

Yuki gave Aidou a grateful smile before bowing to the nobles. "Please…"

After a few hours, all the details had been hammered out. Senna grinned and ran outside, her arms flung out wide. She couldn't wait to go back to Cross Academy with everyone. She could hear Yuki shouting at her to slow down, Aidou complaining about her being a spoiled brat, and Senri and Rima talking quietly to each other. A little shard of her world was back in place. Slowly but surely, she would put all the pieces back together. She'd get her family back.
