"gabh na deugairean sin, cuir às do aois a 'chuirp aca, thoir air ais iad gu àm gun chuideachadh, bho seo gus an tig an draoidheachd gu crìch" Zero intoned allowing his magic out with the incantation, the hunter sealing mark appeared under the three vampires feet before glowing, and smoke rose and surrounded them, Zero watched in shock as the three began to shrink and now stood before he was no longer three teens.
…..
KIDS, children that were no more than 3-4years of age, Zero had turned Kaname, Kain, and Aidol into little kids, he stood there shocked as the three looked around in confusion until they had looked at one another and it began to sink in as to what had happened to them.
"Zero…." Kaname began before stopping at the sound of his voice.
"Kaname….I shouldn't have used that incantation…. not without knowing what it does" Zero said, there was no anger or malice in his voice, he sounded genuinely sad for what he had done.
Kain and Kaname were shocked at the change but it also gave hope that Zero may become friendlier with them. Aidol's sudden change in the body didn't help him and he started crying again, only it wasn't silent. Zero stood shocked as he watched the blond break down into tears, Kain stood there unable to help as he no longer provided the comfort Aidol needed now they were the same height, Zero's heart ached at the sound of Aidol's crying, he had never liked it when young children cried, and even though he new Aidol was only a few months younger than himself he had been turned into a 3-year-old body and it was heart-wrenching for Zero.
As Zero stood unsure of what to do as Aidol cried, Kaname and Kain moved to try and ease the younger of the three vampires, however, before they could Aidol ran past them and straight up to Zero hiding his face in the young hunter's leg as he wrapped his small arms around said leg and cried holding as tightly as he could, Zero looked down at the crying blond wanting nothing more than to comfort him, he then looked to the other two who suddenly looked uneasy at what had happened. Zero not able to take Aidol's heartbreaking cries any longer reached down and gently pulled Aidol's arms off his legs which only served in making Aidol cry harder, breaking Zero's heart further. Zero then lifted Aidol up and onto his hip while running his hand over his back in small circles as Aidol's arms wrapped around his neck and he buried his head into Zero's shoulder as he cried.
Zero glanced a the other two vampires as he continued to soothe Aidol, taking note that Both vampires looked shocked but nothing else Zero returned his attention to the boy in his arms, quietly whispering soothing words to the young boy. Aidols cries began to slowly subside as he clung to Zero taking in his scent and soothing whispers until only soft occasional whimpers were passing the young vampire's lips as he relaxed fully into the hunter's arms. Zero's heart eased as Aidol's cries slowed the occasional whimper.
"Kaname, where's the phone? I'm going to have to call Cross and tell him what I've done" Zero asked as he kept his tone gentle as not to scare Aidol once more, whose head was now nestled between Zero's shoulder and neck, the occasional hiccup or sniffle passing the young boys lips.
"There's only one and it is in my office" Kaname mumbled his voice shaky as he tried to come to terms with what had just happened, Kain moved closer to Zero taking hold of the other trouser leg he just stood quietly and kept his head down, taking in the comfort Zero seemed to provide, Kaname kept is eyes on Zero as Kain did this, noting that he only seemed shocked but nothing else.
"Okay, then we should head there, the sooner we tell him the sooner we can find out what happens now and sort everything out, I have a feeling this will take a while and we need to at least make a start before the others return form classes," Zero said as he gently shifted Aidol in his arms without disturbing him too much so that when he walked Aidol's legs wouldn't hit Kain by accident. Then looked to Kaname for him to lead him to the office.
Kaname slowly climbed the stairs while keeping a hold of the banister so he didn't lose balance as he went up, Zero doing the same so that Kain didn't lose his hold on his pants leg and the banister, once the three were in the office Zero led Kain to the couch and placed Aidol down on it gently as possible, Kaname watched Kain climbed onto the couch as well, Zero then moved to the desk and picked up the phone and began dialing then waited. Kaname turned from Zero two the too on the couch, Aidol seemed to have dozed off while he was held by Zero if the way he rubbed his eyes while looking around was anything to go by, Kain was just sitting quietly as he watched his cousin.
"Cross, you are needed at the night dorm, I used an incantation without really knowing the effects only the words to the incantation, and used it on Kain, Aidol, and Kuran…Yes, yes I know….. I should have known better…. I known…..the incantation was 'gabh na deugairean sin,cuir às do aois a 'chuirp aca, thoir air ais iad gu àm gun chuideachadh, bho seo gus an tig an draoidheachd gu crìch'….yes, I'm now aware of what it does now….yes…..Toga did…..we'll wait for you in Kuran's office" Zero spoke, looking more and more annoyed as he spoke to the headmaster, once the conversation was over Zero put the phone down with a sigh before sitting and closing his eyes.
"Kuran, Cross will be here in about 10 minutes, after he's chewed out Toga for teaching me that incantation and not what it does, he'll also be bringing my car around with buster seats in them so that we can all go shopping for clothes for the three of you, since the spell used will last a week at the least… maybe longer depending on how strong the Magic is…. as it varies between each hunter who uses it," Zero said as he looked at Kaname who had sat beside Kain.
"we?... who else will be coming shopping with us," Kain asked as Zero seemed unhappy about something.
" well...Cross has decided that either Yuki or I shall be staying with the three of you until your back to being yourselves, as you may have noticed there are things you cant do quite do without help now, that is one of the sides effects of the charm used the other is that your emotions and actions will also be affected and will reflect the age of your body's until the magic wears off.. once whose been decided to stay, both Yuki and I shall be taking the three of you shopping" Zero explained.
"Does that mean you might not be staying with us… and what of the rest of the night class?" Kaname asked, not at all liking the idea of Zero being replaced by Yuki, deciding to later question the other side effects once the more pressing issue of Zero not staying with them has been fixed.
"yes, that might be the case, it is essentially Cross' decision whether it will be Yuki or myself that shall be staying…if it is myself, the night class girls shall be moving in with Cross and Yuki, If Yuki is the one staying than the boys shall be moving out'" Zero said he leaned back into the chair and sighed as he looked up at the ceiling. The three stared, not sure how to take the information as they all sat in silence waiting for the headmaster. There was a knock on the door and all eyes were on the door as Cross and Yuki came into the office.
