Chapter 18

"Well at least I'm not the one who's scared of shirtless bodies," I stuck out my tongue at Ichijou before stealing his pencil. We were back in the classroom and Ichijou was teasing me about my reaction towards the moth in the room. I don't like giant moths, okay?! I had a bad dream about them suffocating me! They're creepy little things!

"I wasn't scared; I was in shock. Anyways. What about you, Cassie-chan?" I look at him before resting my forehead against the table, fearing the worst, "And what about me?" "I saw the sweet, caring side of you; Rima and Shiki are also witnesses." "Don't bring us into this." "This proves that you're not that heartless as you tend to be." I know he's teasing me but he's getting into my personal life. "You should act like that more-" "I am who I am." I bowed my head so my hair was shielding my face. Even though I was working on my assignment doesn't mean I stopped listening. He has no right to tell me how to act, "You have no say in my personality. You don't know nor will you ever know what happen during the past. So shut up and stop acting like biological family." I look up at him and his bright happy smile was gone for once. I grin widely as an evil glint flew across my eyes.

"But you wouldn't understand, would you?" I stared into his eyes; everything around us vanished. "You never walked a mile in my shoes. You were born into a wealthy family." My grin disappeared and was replaced with a smirk. "I heard your dad's an actor and your mom's a head of a flower-arranging school. Meanwhile, your grandfather wants you to fall in his footsteps as the head of the Senate." I'm just reading his emotions in his eyes. It's like an open door way to his past. I don't know how to explain. "But in reality he's just using you…I don't know what about though. You block out negative things through your eyes. But perhaps, you should open your eyes and watch your back; for things are just getting started. Chow!" I blew a kiss and winked before running out of the classroom…and into Zero. MY HERO!

After dragging him outside, I clung onto him. "COMFORT ME! I think I made Ichijou mad at me! I read him out loud to the class like I did with you! But that was just you and me! My first fight with my 4th husband! Oh, the horror!" I collapse on to the ground while still holding on to Zero's arm. My other arm was draped over my eyes. I hear him sigh and mumble about drama queen again. Where's his theater spirit?! He somehow gets my grip off him and drops it to the ground before stepping over me. I jump up and hug his waist. "Give me a hug!" "No!" "Then the piggy-back ride begins!" I jump onto his back, wrap my legs around his waist, and pulled his hair while saying 'Getty-up horsy!' Now, I'm older and a few inches taller than him…poor Zero. I look to the side to see a even wider eyed Yuuki. I never laughed so hard in a few days like that. I mean, here we are, in another awkward position, caught by the same person! It's hilarious! I basically had to crawl away just to stop laughing. Cause by now I was wheezing. I'm pathetic, I know!

Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø

It was early in the morning when I had the sudden urge to visit Ichijou; to apologize for saying his story out loud. I could have done it last night but I was avoiding everybody and went to sleep with Onyx. After I cleaned up the present in the bathroom that is. I still have to get the supplies so October can stop bugging me about the cat food money I owe her.

As I walk into the Chairman dude's office, I noticed a person that I never saw before. He wasn't a student because he didn't have a uniform, looked about 21, and had a shot gun strap to his back. Perfectly normal in this part of town! As soon as the door closed behind me the Chairman dude and the other guy turn to me. The dude had messy light brown hair and under that brown trench coat he was dressed nicely… but he still has that gun.

"Gee, you would think that incident the other day would make me knock but I didn't! Nice weather we're having, huh? The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, there's a guy with a gun strapped to his back; such a wonderful day!" Then I turn my back against them, "Does he have this much power? Is he this mad? I knew I shoulda apologize before coming here! I'm gonna die!" I squeaked as I curl up into a ball in front of the door.

"I thought your vampires had manners?" the dude spat at the Chairman dude. Did he just say vampire? The gun… ugh! He's a vampire hunter! I'm so stupid! "Excuse me, what did you just say?!" I march up to him and got in his personal space. Just then the Chairman dude decided to introduce us.

"Cassie, this is Kaito Takamiya. He's a Vampire Hunter/ Teacher-in-training," he rests a hand on Takamiya-san's shoulder before turning to me, "And this is Cassie Leach, my new daughter. She's the Night Class's Perfect!" he engulfs me in a hug. Which I ignored. All we could do to each other was glare… is that what all Vampire Hunters have in common?

****Chaotic's P.O.V. ****

I knew something was wrong this morning! As soon as I heard Cassie getting ready, rather earlier then usual, I sense a bad presence. I race downstairs to the main lobby and sat on the couch trying to clear my head. 'Focus Chaotic, focus;' I thought to myself, 'where's that Dove when I need her?! ...ahh there she is!' My mind psychologically reaches towards the Dove and gain control over her body. It's not like she gets nothing in return! She gets to have bird treats for the winter! I'm not a manipulative vampire! ;A;

As I (the Dove) flew around trying to find Cassie, the bad presence got stronger. There's a Vampire Hunter here. My first thought was someone told an Elder about October and then they told The Hunter Society. My vision turn red and a deep low snarl form from the back of my throat. Then footsteps arose from the staircase.

"Hey irony, what's up?" it was October. Instead of calling me sweetie or honey she calls me irony. J I continue to glare at the coffee table; if I have to, I will kill for her. (A/N: what's up with purebloods being so possessive? Crazies…) "Wait, w-what's wrong?" her voice grew; I grabbed her hand and she became very alert. We have done this before. When she takes my hand, I can show her what the bird and I are seeing. Cause we have a strong bond with each other. I watch as she sat down beside me with a zone-out look. I release the hold of the Dove and took over a hawk. Mostly because I can listen/see better when I reach the Headmaster's office.

"What are you guys doing?" I look over towards the voice to see Ichijou and Shiki. When we made eye contact, they straighten themselves. "There's a Vampire Hunter in the Headmaster's office and—oh look there's Cassie. You wanna see? But we have to hold hands; is that a problem?" They shook their heads no and Ichijou hold October's hand as Shiki held Ichijou's hand. Ughhh... four channels...this is gonna be so tiring.

After a long pause, Ichijou broke the silence, "What's Cassie talking about?" "She's talking about you, stupid!" October snorts, "She thinks you're mad at her and sent someone out to kill her. I love it when she's paranoid in the mornin! And I think I know that hunter." This is when we turn towards her. While scratching Onyx's ears, she chuckles at our reaction. "We used to play together when we were kids. He's two years older than me and he used to tease me and the Kiryuu twins a lot. Kaito Takamiya has always been a cocky jackass. I wonder how his brother's doing."

Takamiya... I heard of that last name before but where...? Oh! ...oh shit. "His brother's dead." I whispered to myself, remembering that the Elder's were talking about the incident years ago. "What?!" October exclaims with her nails digging into my hand! Itai! "A pureblood bit him and Takamiya-san had to kill his own brother." October runs towards the door but I stopped her just in time. "You can't comfort him-" "But his brother was my best friend!" "Yeah? And what do you think he'll do when he sees that you're a vampire now? ...Now do you understand why I left this world?" I whispered in her ear as I nuzzled against her neck. "I'm sorry..." "There's no need to be. Now let's go back and listen on Cassie's conversation, eh?" I kissed her tears away before walking back to the others. We won't get much sleep today.

****End of Chaotic's P.O.V. ****

I look at this Kaito dude then gave the Chairman dude a blunt look. "He's a Vampire Hunter? Oh well, how wonderful! Hunters like him will kill random humans!" I turn fully towards Kaito-baka and shoved him into the wall. I don't know why, but just standing next to him pisses me off! "These are fake, stupid! You fail at life." I plop myself in a chair across the room and glare at the moron. He smirks as he walks over to me. "You have a big mouth for being human bait. I'm surprise you're still alive for living with those monsters. Perhaps you're just a toy-" Kaito-san couldn't finish for my foot was making contact with his groin. "Don't call my friends that!" I snapped and pushed his crouching figure to the floor. "Now they're your "friends" but when this whole thing is over, they won't even talk to you anymore!" I clench my fists in rage. I haven't thought about that...and they do have appearances to keep up... I sit back and sigh dejectedly, "That may be true but until then shut up!" He chuckles at my answer; you could hear a smirk in that laugh.

"Why are you here, Cassie?" the Chairman dude asks while sitting back down in his desk. "I need to get some supplies for Onyx; so can I go to town?" "You know the rules." "But they're either in class or sleeping!" I whined, slouching in my chair earning a kick to my shoe by Kaito-san. "Then go with Kaito-kun! He'll take care-" "WHAT?!" Kaito and I yelled in unison, "I'm not going with him/her!" I push Kaito away and slam my hands on the desk. "Look at him! He'll ruin my rep! I look like-" "an idiot who believes in peace between vampires and humans." Kaito finishes; he's really starting to get on my nerves. "Hey the Chairman dude believes in that too-" "My point exactly!" Why that cocky son-of-a-gahhh! I went for his throat but the Chairman dude was already in between us. "Either you go with him or you're not going out for the whole week!" now he was using his serious side...how rude. Pictures of Onyx and Kouhel popped into my head. I'm doing this for them! Suddenly, I had a feeling that I was being watch. So I look over to a random window and automatically flipped off this hawk that was watching us. I don't know why but it seems like the right thing to do at the moment. "Fine! Onyx better give me a kitty snuggles after this!" I grab Kaito-san's wrist and pulled him out the door.

"Just can't keep your hands off me, huh?" he smirks as we past the fountain. Pervert. I let go and pace faster towards the gates, "Not in the mood so shut up!" "I can fix-" I put in my earphones to block him out. Hey, I'm trying my best not to punch him! From the corner of my eye, he was trying to put his arm around my waist! Grrrawr! I hate mornings!

*Meanwhile in the Moon Dormitory*

"Did she just flip us off?" Chaotic asks flabbergasted. (A/N: I love that word! Lol it sounds so cool!) Perhaps Chaotic and Cassie hung out too much over the years; if she's able to sense his presence like that. October laughs beside him, by now she had a bowl of popcorn; the couple didn't have to hold hands in order to stay in the loop. Takuma and Senri were also sharing popcorn and took turns feeding Onyx. Anyone who was to walk by would've thought they're staring at the wall... or on drugs that is.

"Heh, heh, heh, he likes her personality!" October snickers next to the guys. And of course, they return a questioning look. "He likes it how she pushes him around. Look! He's even trying to put an arm around her! He likes her personality. That flirt!" October laughs as she leans back to stare at the ceiling. A growl arose from the couch. The wide eyed trio turns to look at Senri. He was being his unemotional self but there was a tint of hatred in his blue eyes. "He should stop touching her." Sure, this was the first time he spoke since he was done here but they were still surprise none the less. Takuma chuckles at his friend, "Are you jealous, Shiki-kun?" The mixed colored brunette gives the blonde a blunt look, "No. She just looks uncomfortable." October perks up at this; her high school memories were kicking in, "Are you sure you're not jealous?" she lean forward with a sly smirk on her face, "Cause, she can take care of herself; you should know this by now." But Senri just shrug his shoulders and left. Shortly after, Takuma followed explaining that they're going to bed and that the couple should too. It took 9 minutes for October to make her husband stop spying on Cassie and Kaito. That overprotective fool!

*Back to original P.O.V.*

We just got done getting all of Onyx supplies and we're leaving to get something to eat when I spot a familiar neon red head. I couldn't tell who it was fer sure, for her back was towards me. The girl was pouting as she stared at some strawberry pocky and back at her... American money? My eyes grew wide in hope as I picked up the nearest stone and chuck it at her head. Next to me Kaito facepalmed. ^^

Apparently, I threw too hard, for the girl spun around and gave a cold-hearted glare. I would recognize that blue eyed moose anywhere! I squealed delight as I drop the bags. "TORI-CHAN!" flew out of my mouth before I tackled her, spun around once, and fell. Her reaction was priceless! She's sleepy and pissed! A good combination for a death wish! :D!

"What are you doing here?" I asked Tori as I help her up "Miss me already?" She rolls her eyes and snorts, "You wish. I got on the wrong plane-" "I can see that! Well we'll deal with that shit later. Now let's go get some lunch!" I pulled her towards Kaito, "This is Kaito Takamiya. And this is one of mah besties Tori-chan aka moose! Yes, on a full moon she turns into a moose!" I burst out laughing as she punches my arm. Owwie! T-T

Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø

"So...instead of going to Arizona and eat a wedding cake; you came to Japan to eat ramen noodles with me and Kaito-kun?!" I gave an open-mouthed smile as they facepalmed. That's the 10th one today. How rude! "Didn't they check your ticket? Or don't they know how to read?" Kaito asks as he pays the annoying waitress; she won't even look at me without trembling. "I don't know, but it was all in a rush; there were a lot of people." Tori sighs while resting her head on her arms. "Well the Chairman dude will help you. Perhaps the twins can fly their jet over here and pick you up tomorrow-" "Hayden and Aiden? Tomorrow? DO YOU WANT ME TO DIE?!" she crises dramatically; causing us to laugh. You know Kaito can be a jackass but when the conversation isn't about vampires, he is tolerable. But I just wanna see how far I can push this. "Well the worst they can do is put fake vampire fangs on with super glue," she gives me the "Tori stare" (it's scary!) "THEY WON'T COME OFF!" Now it was my turn to cry dramatically/hysterically. "Did you pull?" "Hai!" "Yanked?" "Sí!" "Have someone else pull on them?" "Yes!" She gives me an emotionless stare before laughing out loud, saying that I'm screwed! Everybody's mean today!

"So this is your uniform? First time I saw you with a skirt," as we leave the diner. "Hey! I'm still wearing skinnies! Plus, I look cute," I pout before continuing, "The Night Class uniform is better than the Day Class ones. The Day Class ones are supposed to be black but they're really dark, dark, dark blue!" "You're a dork." "IT'S TRUE!" I whined before petting Kaito on the head. He's being a good boy! HAHAHA! Oh, how I wish I could say this out loud! Tori rolled her eyes before questioning if she was going to see the rabid fan girls. "Of course! I don't wanna go through the torture alone! I'll hide you behind a tree so you don't die! ^^" "And what about him?" she points at Kaito. He was wearing an expressionless look, in a way he reminds me of Shiki. "I don't know. I just met him; but he's not going back to Cross Academy," I spoke in a rather stern voice. "You just met him and you're petting his hair?!" "It seemed rather natural at the time." "Oh bullshit!"

Here's what's gonna happen when we get back to Cross Academy. Kaito will leave with his perverted-ness, I'm going to bring Tori up with me to my room (quietly I might add), dump Onyx's supplies on my bed, and then she'll help me dye my hair. And if anyone wakes up (Kaname) I'm gonna be in deep shit! Let the ninja-ness begin!

Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø

"Where's the window in this bathroom?!" The ammonia is getting strong in this small closed off room and we were beginning to get a little loopy. And if we lose control of our laughter everyone will wake up. I sure hope no ones thirsty! ^^;;

After killing some brain cells, we were able to find the damn window. You see, I want my hair to be bleached on top, and then dye it purple until it fades into black. So far, so good! No one is up or knocking on my door. Onyx is sleeping with her butt on my pillow...it's all good!

Silence filled the bathroom for a few minutes until I heard someone walking around in my room. I hid Tori behind the shower curtain before going to investigate with a towel on my head. When I open the door I saw a snooping Ducky in his boxers; oh great!

"Why are you in my-" "Why do I hear voices?" "I don't know but you should probably get that checked out!" "But!" "No buts!" I snapped while pushing him closer to the door. "You have a butt!" Why is he speaking too loud?! "And you are an ass yourself! See ya!" I close the door and prop a chair against it. :D!

Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø

Tori and I was just out the door when the she-bitch called me out. Ruka is at the end of the staircase with a satisfied smirk on here face. We were so close to the exit too!

"So who's your friend? Kaname-sama will need all the details..." she sneers, walking closer oh-so-silently. She's in predator mode. I stand in front of Tori going in a fighting stance. "And you look uglier than you did before." Ohhh where's a dart when I need one?! "Ever heard of the saying "snitches get stitches" Ruka?" The space around us was darkening when Rima came into view. Then Tori popped out beside me.

"Gomenasai about the intrusion but my name's Tori Kay. And I got lost at the airport so I came to Japan instead of Arizona," Tori bows shyly and steps back. I laugh at her mistake, "Why did you come here? I would stay in Tokyo! They have cool fun stuff, like toys!" "I worry about you-" "Shut up!" I flick her forehead, grab her arm, and ran out of the door. Each step I took was more powerful than the last, I was basically dragging her! I had to make a quick escape; not for my safety but hers. Even though it was one in the afternoon and the vampires were stirring... not a good thing.

We ran all the way to the office and by then we were outta breath but I still manage to scream at the Chairman dude! " . . . . .THEN. . . . ' . !" -Insert the Chairman dude and Tori's sweat dropping here-

After explaining all that have happened, the Chairman dude got a note on his computer saying that Kaname, Ichijou, and Chaotic were coming down in an half an hour. I'm gonna die! So instead of waiting, he let us go on an errand to my old Day Class and deliver something to Oliver. I skip out the door with Tori following. "Why did you really leave the Day Class?" Tori asks while narrowing her eyes. "I told you for academic purposes. When I was in Seattle, Alexander, helped me on a lot of stuff; even though he's a 10th grader," I explain even though it won't do any good. Tori doesn't know about vampires but that doesn't mean she's naïve about the world. She has questioned Chaotic a lot about his fangs and eyes. I always wondered what she'll do if she did ever found out?

Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø

After Chaotic and I got done begging; the trio agreed to let Tori sit in the Night Class for tonight. And then noon tomorrow the twins will come by and take her to Arizona...well more like kidnap actually. But now Tori went to take a nap in one of the Chairman dude's guest rooms and I took a nap on the floor in front of his desk. I like sleeping on floors.

Four hours later, we had to wake up and go outside. The girls are already there! I motion towards our mp3's before hiding her behind a tree. Zero and Yuuki didn't even notice Tori which is good cuz I don't want to explain AGAIN why she's here =.=" Zero was glaring at his bunch; I really wonder why they obey under his glare. When I glare at them they just get more physical! And with Yuuki; she's a small thing so if they really wanted to, they could over power her and give her a concussion! And when the vampires finally came out, the girls got wilder! But Aidou wasn't really looking at the girls but in the trees where Tori were positioned. October gave me a reassuring smile before running up to Aidou and giving him a head-noogie. I am proud to say that I am not the most wanted girl on campus anymore! ^^

As soon as we entered the classroom, October was hugging the crap out of Tori! So I left her. What? I don't wanna get mixed up in that! DON'T MAKE ANY SUDDEN MOVEMENTS! Then Tori sat on the right of Chaotic, I followed after along with October. So in a way, it looked like a protective barrier around Tori.

"Wow October, this is the first time I saw you in-" "Shut up!" October snaps and smacks me instead of Tori; I think I just saw Chaotic facepalmed too. "I think that's the 26th time of someone saying shut up and 13th time of someone facepalming today," I thought to myself out loud while rubbing my sore shoulder. "You've counted?" Tori ask before turning away and facepalming. "14th!" "Oh my god!" "But! You and Kaito were doing most of the facepalming while I was saying shut up to you judging bastards!" I giggled, earning a hit to my other shoulder. I shrunk lower to the desk when feeling Chaotic's uncomfortable gaze on me. So he was the one spying on us in the morning! Ughh great; now he's going to interrogate me later on! "-or you were hitting him." "I can't help it! He has that certain personality that makes me want to go all ninja on him!" "...so that's why you pet him—" "You wanna die, don't you?" I asked in a high pitch cute voice with my hand covering her mouth. October began snickering beside us…what's her problem?!

I look towards the window to see the moon up already. It was partly cloudy but still nice. I took my eyes away from the window and saw Shiki. You know, Shiki and Kaito really do look the same but will always be different. I poke Tori then point at Shiki, "From behind he looks like Kaito-baka." Tori laughs before correcting me, "But Kaito's hair is more flat; his is poofy." I love the word poofy… if that is even a word. October leans forward and makes a weird hand motion to Shiki, "I can't believe you guys just compared Shiki to Kaito! That's a rude insult." Everyone is staring at us again. "Well they have different hair color!" I added quickly (I was pushing my luck with this hunter thing anyways); "Kaito has light sandy brown hair (A/N: I have no idea what Kaito looks like I'm just guessing cuz there's been no colored versions of him without it being fan made.) While Shiki is more of a brownish, pinkish, purplish, ra-redish hair! Hah, I almost said radish. Yesh! He grows radishes in his hair; while behind his ears are potatoes!" Almost everyone was laughing or grinning. Ichijou's having a laugh attack, Aidou's in a fit of giggles, Rima's smirking up at me, and even Kaname's laughing! And most of the time he's expressionless! It wouldn't surprise me if he's related to Shiki somehow. But Shiki just looks irritated. I'm a stinker! "Are you quite done?" he asks after the class quiet down. I held a finger to my lips and made a thinking face before flashing him a toothy smile, "Nah man, where's the fun in that?"

"Open your mouth." Tori demands with a determine look on her face. I open my mouth but then closed it when she tried to grab my left fang. "Look Cassie, its Bri!" Tori points towards the door and I follow with an open mouth smile; only for my head to whip back to face her. Pain shot through my neck causing me to yelp and jump from my seat. I ended up landing on Nao-chan and Ducky's desk, which was right behind. Backwards jump…that takes skillz! "You gave me whiplash…and you ripped off my fang… aww." I whimpered like a puppy. My whole personality is changing because of her. Usually I fight back or cuss out the person but since I knew her for a long time, I just shrink into a small ball. She can punch hard when she wants to…I have such abusive friends. "Well you wanted them off; I can do the other if you-" "NO! Now I can be the can opener I always wanted to be! You poop head!" I cover my mouth to keep from laughing as she chuckles/smacks me. "Mommy, Tori-chan hit me!" "Who's mommy?" "Chaotic. Cause he nags like a woman." Up in front, Aidou bursts out laughing; I don't think he can breathe. "You know the saying 'Women will be the death of all men'? What it really meant is that Chaotic will be the death of all of us!" This time I couldn't help but laugh along with the class. There's nothing wrong with laughing at your own jokes! I couldn't see Chaotic's face but I could see the whites of his knuckles. "I have a feeling that I'm going to die at a very young age; at least let me turn 17 first. You can wait a month, right Chaotic-chan?" I watch him as he gave a dark chuckle. See! I told ya I'm gonna die!

I look over to see Ichijou reading a manhwa called Jack Frost. (Me: A manhwa is like a manga but from Korea; and its read like regular books but sometimes it can be like Chinese manhua and Japanese manga...yeah I'm a nerd so what?) I nudge Tori with my foot, "Ichijou is reading Jack Frost too," I jerk my head towards him. He looks up at the sound of his name and waves. "That's the one with the weird unicorn named Maru, right?" Tori turns around to give me an are-you-serious look, "Is that the only thing you remember?" "Well that was the only thing I could see since you were reading so fast in the car!" She rolls her eyes and asks what volume Ichijou is on. He's reading the 4th book but just got done with the 3rd. So being the gentlemen he is, he invited her to read with him. "Sure! I love it when Jack teases Junoa." If Tori ever found out about vampires, she wouldn't freak out but would be quite interested.

Fifteen minutes later; she was done. I bet she doesn't even look at the pictures! I look back at Ichijou only to realize that I haven't talked to him all day. Even when we were in the office there was no words shared. Is he really mad?

"I'm sorry about yesterday, Ichijou-san," I gave my most sincere smile that tends to brighten up my own area. Obviously, I don't smile like this often. Most of my smiles are force, fake, sad, or just plain evil! "What did you do now?" Tori sighs, she looks comfortable around Ichijou. :D! "I took his pencil," I wave my hand as if it meant nothing. "A pencil?" Now she was using a tone that says yeah-and-tigers-lay-legos-too? Tigers lay legos... I double dog dare ya to say that five times fast! "Yep and then I threw it out the window," now I'm speaking with my hands to enhance my speech but also make her forget what we were talking about, "and when it hit the ground it exploded into a giant unicorosaurus! But not just any unicorosaurus, this one gave birth to a cow! Which I named moo-moo!" She made a comment about why'd she ask before laying her head on the desk.

"What's a unicorosaurus?" I look down to see October sitting on her desk, facing up at me. "A unicorn and Tyrannosaurus rex." "How does that..." "A unicorn went back in time, had sex with a T-rex, came back, and gave birth to a cow. Then the cow gave birth to a pencil. Now we know where mechanical pencils come from...a cow's ass...just like Chaotic!" my fake pout quickly turn into a wide sneer. "Where did you get this crap?!" Ducky asks over Aidou's laughter and Kain's elbowing. I point to my head as Chaotic threatens me. While Tori's staring at him with wide eyes.

"...your fangs have gotten sharper, Chaotic..." See! I told you she wasn't stupid when it came to these things! Everyone around us turns tense; they paused what they were doing and either look at her from the corner of their eyes or focus in on their hearing. Chaotic smiles wider flaunting his fangs...he's obviously used to (enjoying) this. "I sharpen them to make me look sexier!" "Well, you have a long way to go then..." she mumbles but it was still audible. October and I high-fived each other before snickering at his hurt ego. "You girlies are so mean!"

Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø

"-that will be due Thursday. Leach-san you may leave." the ethnic teacher nods my way. I get up and tell Tori to do the same. She's still by Ichijou, so there was a table between us. She leisurely got her stuff and starts down the steps. I was already by the door when I saw Aidou in her way. What is he up to now?! He had a...rose in hand? Where did that come from?! "I hope you have a safe goodnight rest, my rose..." he puts the rose WITH THORNS in her open palm. Her eyebrows were raised as if he was crazy. As she walks by him, his eyes trailed up to her neck most likely taking in her tattoo and her main artery. His eyes are glowing bright red. And being the wonderful Night Class Perfect that I am; I search through my pockets and found one of Chaotic's stolen pencils and threw it at Aidou's head. As the pencil fell to the floor, Chaotic notice that it was his so when he flew up to grab it, he pushed Aidou back on Ichijou's table. I almost burst out laughing but this was just a diversion. I need to get Tori out of here! DIVERSION, DIVERSION, DIVERSION—that almost sounded like virgin! XD!

I ushered Tori out of there until we were outside. As we were talking, Zero and Yuuki came out of nowhere and scared the living shit out of us. Hell! I could see Tori's soul floating away! "What are you doing here, Tori?!" Yuuki asks as she jumps up to catch her soul. Note to self: never use height against Yuuki-chan... "The Chairman dude didn't tell ya Tori was here?! Tori got on the wrong plane and came here. We made class fun tonight! I'll be skipping Perfect duties for Tori will be leaving at noon so bye!" I shout as I ran towards the Moon Dormitory. Tori had no choice but to follow.

Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø

Tori was sleeping on my bed as I made my closet into a kitty jungle. I had shelves up so she can climb all the way to the top shelf; where there's another cat bed and cat toys. Then down below, there's a cat climbing tree. Right now, Onyx is eating fresh catnip...nuff said.

After I got done, I turn off the light and walk over to the bed. The Night Class should be returning and I just know Ducky's gonna stir up trouble. He won't lay a hand (fangs) on her when I'm around. I sat on the floor, raise my knees to my face, whip out my anti-vampire weapon, and stared at the door. I can faintly hear people's voices and Onyx is having a spazz attack beside me. That crazy neko just bounce off the wall!

Around 30 minutes later; Ducky finally opened the damn door. He was confused at first, seeing me awake but then I flash the blade at him. Making sure to reflect the light. "Oh? So my princess was waiting up for me? How nice." he puts on a grin of his own before shutting the door behind him. Darkness elopes me like a hug as I stood up to greet it. "Get out." I demand while gripping my blade tighter. And even through all her spazzing-ness, Onyx came up to him and hissed at his shoe...before going back to chase her tail...at least she tried! Then the door opened again to reveal Shiki. I had to squint my eyes for the hallway light is really bright. "Don't worry Shiki-san, I was just leaving...teh," Ducky slides pass him as if he was a saint. I quickly withdrew my blade and walked out so we could talk without disturbing Tori. "Thanks...again," I gave a smile before yawning with a hand over my mouth. See I can be polite when I want to! "Shouldn't you be sleeping?" he gives a blunt look and cross his arms; as if he's scolding me? Oh geez. "I can't sleep today. I have to protect Tori-" "You can't protect her if you're tired. Even Rima and I get more sleep than you do. Follow me." he walks into his room. Oh-so talkative today, eh?

Before walking in, I grab Onyx and then proceed in curiosity. His bed covers were pulled back on the right side when I walked in and he was already in the bathroom. So what am I suppose to do if he walks into another room? Stand still or steal all his candy on the floor...goddamnit! I can never do nothin'! "Why am I here—and I mean in your room, not in general because I'm still trying to figure that one out!" I sat Onyx on the bed and began doing weird hand movements. I started doing the wave! You are getting very sleepy...now you are sleeping...and when you wake up you will get yourself a cookie... okay I really need to stop talking to myself. Don't deny that you don't like it! STOP IT! I heard of a saying that talking to yourself is the first step of craziness. But I also answer myself sooo...aw look at Onyx! "-To sleep. I'm returning the favor," I almost missed his voice. Doors will do that to a person . I sat down on the bed, striping off my jacket, but keeping the rest on. If he tries anything I will kick his balls.

I got under the covers and looked up at the ceiling. Falling in and out of consciousness, I could barely tell that he was walking around in the room. He switch off the lights before walking back to bed, "Oyasuminasai, Cassie-san." That's the first time he said my name..

Ø~‡~*~*~‡~Ø

"–I see nothing in your eyes and the more I see, the less I like. Is it obvious in my head?" my hand shot out and shut the damn phone off. It's so loud! As I look around, I noticed that I wasn't in my room. I look to my side to see Shiki laying there. Immediately, I look under the covers. Yep, fully clothed... though I wouldn't mind... he is a male model after all. I burst out laughing at my dirty thoughts causing Shiki to wake up.

"Hn? Why did you wake me up?" he covers his eyes with his arm. I get up and grab my jacket before coming over to his side, "Arigatou, Shiki-kun," I lean in close to his face only to poke his cheek then reach for Onyx. She was almost on top of his head; she kinda looked like a hat. She likes sleeping on people's heads for some reason.

Tori was still sleeping so I took a shower ahead of her. When I was done, I sneaked over to her sleeping form, screamed/yelled, and then shoved her surprised form off my bed. That hog! From the floor she gave me such an ominous glare that I just about shit my pants! I burst out of my room with her hot on my tail. I slid down the railing hoping that I'll get further ahead. My wet hair was sticking to my face by now. When I got down to the lobby I spot Kaname, Aidou, Ichijou, and Nao-chan sitting on the couches.

Stopping in front of them, I began waving my hands in the air like I was having a spazz attack, "Tori's gonna kill me!" I whined and as Tori rounded the corner, a bit out of breath, she still had that glare! I gave a girlish scream before backing away slowly. "Can't we just talk about this without the painfulness?" My loud mouth bitchy side was gone and was replaced with a submissive high-pitched weakling. So I was standing behind Kaname for protection. :P

"You. Shoved. Me. Off. The. Bed-" "I thought it was funny—I mean I-I love you…?" I gave my open mouth smile before running towards the kitchen only to receive a kick to my ass. This why you never turn your back on people -.- I flew 3ft. from my original spot and landed on my ass. Basically doubling the pain. I quickly crawl backwards for she was walking pretty damn fast! Then Chaotic came up behind Tori, flashing his fangs in her face. "If you kill Cassie, October will turn to me. Besides; you need to get ready, Tori-chan." Meanwhile, I continue to back up until I ran into something, well more like someone. Looking up at a smirking Ducky was a nightmare. He lifts me up by my arm and begins playing with my purple shaded hair, "I'm still adjusting to your strange behavior and now you dye your hair? You're insane," he snickers before taking a sip out of his red "juice". "You know, I have drunk more blood tablets than usual since your friend has been here?" I roll my eyes at him. Vampires don't need blood to survive, they just want blood. It all depends on your self-control. Level E's are a different story.

"Are you saying you have no more self control then a Level E?" flew out of my lips before I could stop. I'm gonna die from my mouth fer sure! His eyes brown eyes flashes red. Thank the tooth fairy for having my blade with me. I back up until there was 10 feet in between us, than I ran like hell towards the lobby. I grab Nao-chan and threw him in front of me, "HUMAN SHEILD! Wait I mean...crap." He faces me but I spun him back around. "Ducky is gonna eat me!" I push my face into his back. He kinda smells good by the way ;D! "YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT SHE SAID TO ME?!" "I was joking! I'M SORRY! GOMENASAI!" I peak over Nao-chan shoulder while wrapping my arms around in a death grip. "Just don't eat me! I don't taste good! I'll taste like medicine! Eat Nao-chan! He'll taste like coffee—dude why is it so hot in here?" I push away from Nao-chan and flung my arms around like I was a baby bird trying to fly away from danger. And maybe, just maybe, Ducky will forget that comment!

"Hey you guys know Pokémon balls?" I stood in front as if I was presenting my product (which I kinda am) "Wouldn't it be awesome having a chibi Aidou as a Pokémon character? We could be like "Aidou I choose you!" And he'll come out a foot tall and it'll be so kawaii!" I held my hands to my face and wiggled my butt. Aidou had stars in his eyes as he imagines this also, too bad he's going to get a wake up call. "Just think we can go to the park with him and super push him on that baby swing, just to leave him hanging... Oh! Kaname! When he irritates you, you can just step on him! Or we can sell him to the fan girls—wait they would probably rape him so-" "STOP TALKING AS IF I'M NOT IN THE ROOM! I thought you were giving me a compliment. 3" he pouts and turns away but that only makes me smile.

"That's right...you're a genius right? So then you can actually make this happen!" I pretend to rub my invisible beard, "and then we can teach chibi Aidou to be street smart and you could go on being the annoying blonde headed monkey that you set out to be in our lives!" Yeah, I had to stop talking cuz by now I was on my knees laughing my ass off along with Ichijou and Ducky. We had tears rolling down our cheeks! And the other two were just chuckling at Aidou.

"Cassie, I have to leave now." I look up to see a blurry Tori. Wiping away my tears, I grab one of her bags, "I didn't know it was 11:30 already!" "You're gonna leave without saying goodbye to us?" October and Chaotic were at the top of the staircase. Even in their pajamas, they look good together. October ran down the stairs, jumped the last 6, and then hugs Tori. Pretty soon, Chaotic hugs Tori from behind; so I brush off my pride and hug her from the side as well. "...okay you guys gotta stop, I can't breathe!" "Squeeze her harder! We can stuff her body in the toilet!" She jumps away from me as soon as I said that and freaked. Aww... and just think I won't see her until Christmas time!
