It has been one year since I had had my teeth grow back, er, my fangs grow. My teeth didn't really grow back. My teeth have grown a bit since then, but not too much. Before, there was a small lump on the front of my lips. Also, I have had eight other teeth grow in. Only this time, I have two at each corner of my teeth. Well, more like almost-corner.
The only happy thing I remember was having two birthdays! Yay, I turned 9!
Kaname had a birthday, too (obviously). But he didn't want to celebrate it 'cause he thinks it would be a selfish thing to do. Really, he doesn't get the point of birthdays.
But today is a very special day, because Kaname finally agreed to let me visit humans. I get to go meet Yuuki and Kaien Kurosu! Well, what's supposed to be Yuuki Kuran and Kaien Kurosu. Anyways, it's exciting, yay, blah blah blah.
Akumu! Bring me with you!
I yelled at Nini, facing her sitting position on my bed. "I already told you, NO!"
I turned away from the bed towards the door and crossed my arms. I opened my eyes when I heard the door open. Kaname came in the room with a black coat that had all the weird and unnecessary pockets.
"Yume, we have to go."
Oi, oi! I just stood still for a moment, then yelled as loud as I could without facing the demon that was currently laying on my bed.
"You better be quiet, or your gonna get a beating so hard, that you won't be able to talk, fixed or not." Kaname chuckled at the door way.
"Yume, just ignore her. I'm sure you'll have fun without her."
I just hung my head low and started walking out of the room and closing the door behind me.
I felt a hand on my head and looked up. Kaname was smiling and rubbing the top of my head lightly for a few seconds before pulling away and moving on through the corridors. We arrived at the big double doors, a maid opening them while bowing and smiling. "Kaname-sama, your car arrived just a few minutes ago." He nodded his head in a 'thank you' and we continued on.
We had been walking through the town for a few minutes after being dropped off by some fountain. Kaname said that he didn't want people to see where he went, so he always had them drop him off there.
Walking through the town was kind of weird. There were a good amount of people, but it just didn't feel right.
I heard Kaname's footsteps come to a halt, so I looked over at him. His eyes were glowing red. I looked toward the direction he was staring and saw a blonde weirdo vampire, or at least I think he is, standing in front of who I assumed to be Yuuki. She wore a light brown coat and had a small purse at her side. She looked like an older version of the one I saw, obviously, and a much younger version of Juuri with hair that didn't look like it had too much hairspray. You know how she has those random strands of hair around her that look like tiny snakes? Yeah, I have no idea how her hair is 'all natural'.
Weirdo was facing our direction and Yuuki was a few feet in front of us. Weirdo bowed than walked off somewhere and Yuuki turned to us with a curious and fear filled face. Though, as soon as she turned to us, her face lit up with a smile.
"Kaname!" She nearly jumped into Kaname's arms and latched onto him tightly. I just stood there with an odd and confused face.
W-Wait a second. I thought humans were afraid of vampires! Didn't they almost wipe out the human race?! And, from what I saw in Kaname's memories, she is totally afraid of vampires!
I sighed audibly. I think I get it. She's a hypocrite. She's scared of every vampire except the one that she's spent her whole life yet. Then again, she did have a most likely traumatizing experience when she was born. Again.
Hmm. I wonder what would happen if she knew her past and was still a vampire? I probably would never have seen Kaname.
Wow. Maybe I should shake Rido's hand or give him some money as a thank you before he becomes my enemy. He seems pretty insane, but those are always the most interesting characters in books.
Kaname spoke up. "I thought you were afraid to walk around town all by yourself."
"If your with me, then I'm not scared of anything." After she said that, he had a surprised look on his face, open mouth and everything. Weird. It's been so long since I've seen that face. Probably the only time being when I told him that I knew everything about his past and when my eyes were 'evolving'.
After the few seconds of the daze Kaname was in, he replied with such a smooth and soft voice. And for some reason, it was a sort of annoying voice. "And neither am I."
Ever since I was young, I've had a problem with those oddly comforting voices. True, it was never annoying when I was hurt and crying, but that's more because I'm focusing on my injury, since injuries hurt. But I always found them annoying probably because they make me feel weaker than I actually am.
I watched as I was being ignored and as Kaname hugged Yuuki just as tightly as she did with him.
I cleared my throat, trying to get their attention. "Ahem. Uh, hi, Yuuki-san." I gave a small wave and open smile, trying to be as nice as possible. I saw her fearful face after looking at me, then she started backing up behind Kaname.
"Um..." She spoke almost nothing. I wonder what made her so... scared? I looked behind and around me. I don't see a purple elephant with a giant chicken anywhere. So... she is scared of me. But what I'd do?
Kaname spoke up in an authoritative voice, one that I have never heard directed at me.
"Yuuki, this is a friend of mine. Her name is Yume." He looked down and tried to whisper. "Would you like me to go?" She looked up, smiling and shook her.
He sighed. "Ne, Kaname, is she... a vampire too?" He nodded his head and took her hand in his. He started walking with her towards where I assumed was Kaien's house.
"So you are afraid of vampires. Just so you know, I don't think someone as nice as Kaname here would pick a mean vampire." I started to walk in front of them. "And besides, not all vampires are scary."
I tried persuading her about the situation. I don't really want to feel like never seeing humans for the rest of my life because of a bad first impression. Especially because of Kaname's sister. But I can't also help but feel like I'm already being ignored.
Wait, oh shit, I did not just think that. Well, I'm gonna have a good sleep tonight. And Nini is gonna have fun, too.
"Um... Why are your fangs so weird?" ... Eh?
I stopped walking. By now, we were in a forest like area. If I looked behind me, I could probably see the small village just down the long hill.
How am is supposed to answer such a question?! 'Hey, I eat flesh, but don't worry. I haven't gone hungry yet, but I probably will the next time you see me, if you ever do again.' She'll run screaming to the hills if I told her the truth. She's already afraid of regular vampires, she doesn't need more of a reason just because... because...
A monster was born?
W-What? My knees are weak. I don't want to hear what that thing says. Not now, not ever. But I have to.
"Yume? Are you alright?" I looked up to see Kaname staring at me with a worried look. I looked further behind him and saw Yuuki with a confused look on her face.
At least people know that I'm just a figment of your imagination. But what about you?
I jumped into Kaname's arms, sobbing. His arms rapped around my small back immediately, probably sensing the center of my worries. If I were in his position, I would know immediately why I was I was crying. I mean, it's only happened thousands of times.
I stopped suddenly when I felt Kaname pick me up and put me on his back. He whispered in my ear before continuing on. "If you want, we can leave and come back another time." I thought about it for a second.
If we leave, then Kaname will probably be sad that I couldn't make it because of Nini and that he didn't get to see Yuuki very much. I can't tell that he has a sort of family bond, and it makes sense since she is his descendant.
"No, but thank you for the thought." I smiled into his back, sleep taking over my heavy eyes.
Dream
As I opened my eyes in the cold black pit, I was met with nothing. No clock, no crows, no warmth. Nothing, but the blackness around me and Nini in front of me.
"You're a monster."
"I know."
"A demon."
"I know."
"And no one wants you."
"That's where you're wrong."
"What?"
"Kaname said he'll be there. And so far, he hasn't lied."
"Kaname? Don't make me laugh. Kaname will leave you as soon as he has a reason. And can't you remember that you aren't like a normal pureblood? Someday, Kaname will die, and you will be left to rot next to his coffin, all because you were too ignorant.
"Just you wait. You know that Rido isn't dead, you've seen it. And it's only a matter of time until he is fully healed, and will come after Yuuki."
I grimaced. That sick twisted pervert didn't die, I know. But, with my growing power, I know that I can kill him. The only thing that I have to develop on my own is my ability to kill, meaning I have to strengthen my self, emotionally.
"Nini. Why do you hurt me?"
She laughed. "Because your body wishes it so. How do you think I came into existence?"
"What? But I thought it was because I was lonely."
"Every cause does not always have to have 1 effect. I was made from loneliness, and like a guide. Long ago, humans were nearly extinct because of vampires. Now, a vampire growing in power who can't reproduce, but is immortal comes into existence. Not only that, but almost always has to kill someone just to find food.
"Every living thing is meant to reproduce, and yet you can't. True, few animals and humans may end up with something that takes away that ability. But you are different. All you do is kill."
"So I'm a savior for humans? I restore balance? That sounds way to cheesy for you to be saying, and how is it that I didn't figure this out?"
"No, that isn't what I said. I'm simply saying you have no purpose. Balance my ass! Pretty sure we want more, not less humans, you idiot!"
"So..."
"Are you this stupid? I'm not your fucking guide! I'm just evidence that your going insane! Ha, and you believed that part?"
She sighed. "But, using logic, I guess I could be... no never mind." I looked at her curiously with bloodshot eyes.
I just stayed silent. Wishing she would go away and I would wake up was just about all I have. Pinching doesn't work, I've tried it.
"Don't worry, waking up is the least of your problems, now. This just means more visits for me."
I woke up and felt a cold pressure on my forehead. "Chairman, Yume's waking up!" I opened my heavy eyes and saw Yuuki looking towards the door. The door opened, and Kaname and a person who I assume is the chairman came into the room.
Kaname looked at me worriedly. I chuckled. "Why is there a washcloth on my head."
Yuuki suddenly hugged me. "Because you seemed sick." ... Why is she hugging me? I had the sudden urge to ask what they had done to her. Before I woke up, she seemed more like she was afraid and thought the spot behind Kaname's back was comfortable. Oh well. I hugged her back hesitantly
After the little greeting she gave me, I got up and out of the bed. Kaname came up to me and hugged me as well. Now I feel like I just got back from some weird adventure, and everyone's hugging me, like in the movies. "Yume, are you alright?" I chuckled.
"Why wouldn't I be alright?" I knew perfectly well why he was saying that, I just didn't really feel like talking about it right now.
He pulled away, hesitantly though.
I decided to try and make conversation. "So... um... I never really got to introduce myself to you, Yuuki." I scratched the back of my head nervously. "I guess I was just nervous, heh... my name is Yume, and it's nice to meet you." I held out my hand and put a small smile on my face.
She took my hand in hers and shook. Her hand was warm and sweaty, but not by a lot. "Hi, Yume-chan."
Kaien looked over at Kaname and spoke. "Kaname, may I speak to for a moment?" Kaname nodded his head and went out the door, but not before saying goodbye.
"Ne Yume-chan, can I ask you a question?"
I nodded my head. "A-Ah, what is it?"
"Um... are you Kaname's sister? It's just that he seems protective of you, and you came along with him."
I guess that makes sense. But I look nothing like a Kuran. She did say he was protective.
Chapter 9, everybody! If you read the last two chapters, you will know that I was going to give a better explanation about the really big edit.
First of all, I'm sorry about it. And if you haven't read it, I suggest going and reading it, 'cause it IS important. Second, I did because I didn't like how crazy it sounded. I write these stories from ideas, obviously. But I constantly have different ideas for stories about Vampire Knight. Its really easy to make stories that go with it. But in each of my stories, I have an OC. But after about 1 week, I start to think that it sounds a bit too crazy and desperate, so I think of another one. And this is one of them that's being made into a story.
BUT! I thought the whole... ahem... second evolving was bad and I didn't think it through all the way. I don't want to say anything about it for the people who didn't read it before the change, since it shows up (sort of) later in the story. Actually, I'll probably have to think that through a bit as well. But I spent a lot of time editing today and, wow, that took up so much time. I even rewrote a whole chapter. Damn.
Business aside, lets talk! Or, you know, me talk and you think. Anyways, I am going to be putting up a poll. Its between the ShizukaxOC and another KanamexOC, though I think the ShizukaxOC will be more like a mother-daughter thing. Yes, my OC will be female. And, yes, this will be going on my profile. All this information, I mean.
Man, I really like writing A/Ns, Anyways, please review. I like hearing your thoughts, as do other authors. Bye!
Positive and negative criticism is welcome.
I do NOT own Vampire Knight, only the summary of the story and my OCs. Its FANfiction! FANfiction!
