[Discontinued] True Story

Chapter 4

(The same night)

Yuki asked me to help her study but... "Yuki you are dozing off again, Focus" She jolted her head upwards  "I...I'm so sorry" I never know why she apologizes when she doesn't need to "Like I said substitute the value for x over there and then....." I could see her brain smoking just by looking into her eyes "What? Why?" I couldn't help but rub the bridge of my nose as I let out a sigh "You don't know why?" I saw at the corner of my eye that Zero walked in with a sleepy look in his eyes. Yuki woke me up so I could help her study but it seems useless when I do it "Oh Zero, I'm sorry if we woke you but perfect timing. Would you tutor Yuki I can't do it but you might" He looked at me with a blank face "Sure no problem" "Well then I'll stick around to study to" I moved to the seat next to Yuki

(An hour later)

Yuki and Zero were having a quiet staring contest while I was solving an equation "Yuki, you know you made the same mistakes as last time you have to be more careful" I knew that Yuki was careless sometimes but this is ridiculous "Huh? Oh, your right, ok then this number goes here, and then you use these numbers here to get the total value. Is that right?" Uh, I didn't catch that "Yes it is" Tick, tick, tick The room became quiet as Yuki and Zero kept to themselves. My neck is really starting to hurt and it was throbbing, I put my hand over it to make it look like I was propping my head up and I noticed Zero has decided not to speak "Is something wrong? Your neck bothering you" I wished Yuki knew I was bitten to "The wound the woman made has been throbbing" I guess it's a good thing that she doesn't know. Maybe. No, it's not, before Zero could continue I started to speak "Every night since I can remember, four years ago she toed with our brother and me in a blood bath. But I think we're able to keep living...." Yuki stared at me with confusion from what I said and Zero glaring at me thinking 'Don't do it' "Yuki, I'm a vampire" I knew I might regret it but she had to know. 

I waited for Yuki to yell her lungs but then I felt a hand on the hand on my hand that was covering my mark knowing I wasn't wearing my ribbon. I looked at her with shock on my face "I've known that since I found out about Zero. You know you've been acting different today; maybe a cup of coffee will cheer you two up I'll go make some" As she was walking away I got up and hugged her from behind "Come on Lucy what's wrong" I didn't say anything but kept my arms wrapped around her "Do you want my blood to?" I was stunned by that but grabbed her hand and squeezed it "We're able to live on because you will always be by our side" I let go and backed up. She looked at me with her eyes full of sorrow and worry "Lucy?" I grabbed Zero's hand "We're leaving...." I was nearly out the door but I stopped and turned to her "Don't forget the lesson" I was walking away then I heard Yuki "Ok I won't, hey thanks for tutoring me good night Zero, Lucy" "Goodnight" I and Zero said in union and left

(Outside)

Zero and I stopped outside "We're going to see Maria and confront her" I nodded and started walking towards the moon dorms.

(Moon dorms)

I opened the door to find Maria standing in the middle of the room as if waiting for us. I walked in with Zero in front of me "That's right you have the ability to sense my presence. Because there's a bond between us. Unlike your little girlfriend, she's just a servant" Then she's turned her attention back to Zero "It fills the emptiness in my heart" Zero motioned for me to stay where I was while he grabbed Maria's head and put the bloody rose to her stomach "Honey he came to kill me. Go ahead and kill me for my sins Zero, providing you can even pull the trigger" He struggled to pull the trigger but end up he couldn't "Are you surprised, that you can't do it?" Maria cupped his face. Feeling a ping of Jealousy as I was watching. She leaned in for a kiss..... "DON'T TOUCH HIM!" With ought realizing it I yelled at Maria. She turned to me with an annoyed look on her face but then back to Zero "I am your master, given you life as a vampire you are my fateful servant, you can't kill me" I pulled Zero away from her, then I grabbed his gun and pointed it at Maria with a full-on glare "You're the only one who hasn't wielded to me such a good girl, protecting your brother and pointing that gun to me" She turned to Zero "My good little pet's you found out who I am, even if I look different now, you knew I was the one who took your pathetic human lives" I glared at her as Zero got up and was glaring at her to "That's right, I can't forget....." her name came out like poison from our mouths "Shizuka hiro" We both said her name in union. Then I finished Zero's sentence "That day your true face covered with our blood" She put her hand on her dead heart and started to speak in Maria's voice "You know this body isn't mine, so I want you to treat it as gently as you can" Zero took the bloody rose from my hand and pointed it back to Maria. I looked up to see a man with gray hair, a mask, and a samurai sword. The man dropped it for Shizuka to catch, she took it out of the case and started swinging it close to my face "ugh, Lucy" I turned to the voice and saw the last person I wanted to see right now. Huh? Yuki "Don't you dare look away!" *BANG!* Zero-shot Shizuka in the shoulder "A borrowed body can be difficult to use, once our wounds heal we'll be back where we started aren't we?" I was intoxicated by the smell of her blood and I could barely move because of the lust for blood and the eye contact I had with Shizuka, Zero and I fell to the floor on our knees and the burning sensation of the craving for blood "As you can see, a large loss of blood will cause intense hunger, be careful a vampire's true self is extremely savage and cruel...." I stare at the man that helped Shizuka feeling like I know him the first name that came to my mind was 'Ichuru' but it's impossible Shizuka killed him I thought "However the vampire hunters are very similar if you ask me" Zero has passed out but before I passed out I heard Shizuka talk to the man "Take them out of here" I was barely conscious when I heard the man's voice "You're going to leave them alive?" He sounds so much like "Ichuru....." then everything went black
