"Hey, little butt .... What's with the glaring at me?" I say walking over to Yuki. I may not like her, but I want her to be happy, I mean everyone deserves to be happy. "How is it you get everyone to like you ... Even Kaname is in love with you. I mean, why you what's so special about you, you're not very pretty, your hair blends in with a fire truck that's bleeding. You don't dress very nice. I don't get it, you're not even good at music, or school." I keep my mouth shut as Yuki disses my very being, just let her vent.

"Well, try being nice to people for once. Don'tdiss people at every chance you get. Oh, and take a steam bath once in a while ... Your pores are bigger, then Aido's ego. Oh, and I am amaz-tastic." I say, trying to be nice about it. Walking away I wink at her, maybe she'll listen to me this time. 'Well ... I can dream. Right?' I think laughing to myself silently.

I walk out from behind the stage and get tackled by the Night Class. "Guys! I'm glad you like it, but can you let go? I can't breathe," I say gasping for air once Aido and Ruka let go. "Sorry, babe. But you were amazing. As usual you are perfect at everything you do." Aido says after kissing my nose. "Guys, I am far from perfect just ask Yuki. She has a speech about how imperfect and horrible I am." Tell them laughing. "Hey, I gotta go see Yargari 'kay?" I say quickly to my fanged friends before heading off to find my date ... Well my hot date that is. I mean come on! Have you seen the guy?!

Looking around in the sea of people I can't find Yargari. Remembering that he came back in with Zero staying in the back of the room. Heading towards the outreaches of the crowd, I still can't find him. Where is he? I spot the top of his hat and head towards it. When I finally reach the hat, I see that it is attached to one Toga Yargari.

Standing behind him? Yup. I am so going to do this ... Let's hope he doesn't think I am a vampy. 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... And, jump! I jump up on his back wrapping my legs around his torso to hang on while I use my hands as blinders. "Guess who?" I whisper into his ear. Obviously he knew it was me since as soon as I whispered to him, Yargari swung me around so that we're face to face with each other. Were his eyes always clouded or is it just my imagination.

'Flame, come now. The time is perfect. Flame, my beautiful daughter. Please come, join me.' There's that strange voice again. The second time tonight. My daughter? Mom! Its Mom! "Mom," I say slightly above a whisper. Adrenaline, it's running through my veins. I must find her. I must find the voice. My Mom, she's the one whose been calling out to me ... Does Aqua hear it too? 'Yeah I do ... Where is she Flame?' I hear my twin's voice in my head. 'I don't know! Just stay here! I can find her.' I send a thought back to my lovely sister Aqua. Yeah, we know cliché. Powerful twins who have a bond so strong we can communicate without being in the same building.

"Mom!" I whisper/yell out while running through the crowded gym and out the doors. "Flame! Where are you going?" Yagari's voice sounds out to me as he chases to catch up to me. "Mom? Where are you?" I ask aloud, trying to find the one person I want to know most in this world. "Flame? What are you doing out here? It's dangerous, look, the moon is bloody and full." Yargari says to me when he finally catches up to me.

"Flame, you're so close to finding me. Come Flame, come and join me." I hear my mother's silky voice call out to me. "Flame? Hey? Listen to ME!" Yargari voice fades off. I go into a trance. My legs, they're moving ... And I'm not the one who's controlling them. I can't help but to walk. Walking towards the pond? Before I know it, my shoes are alone on the bank, and I'm knee-deep in the water. Under the water? That must be where Mother is...

I dive, against my will into the calming, cold, crystal pond. The water is so cold against my skin. Air! I need air! Struggling to swim towards the surface gets harder. My legs, I can't move them. Hey! Let go! I scream in my foggy mind as something is wrapped around my ankles. It's slimy feeling. Hey! Help! How long have I been down here?! I feel so tired, so weak. I hate this feeling.

"Flame. Don't struggle. Soon we will be together soon enough. Hush, my lovely Flamethamis." Her voice calls out, I want to listen, but I. CAN'T. FIGHT. IT! FLAME! Everything goes black. I can no longer think.

Flame. She's been acting strange since she jumped on my back. Flame? "Flame!" She was just here a second ago. The pond! I sprint as quickly as I can to the pond searching the fire haired girl. There are her shoes ... Her footprints trail into the water.

She went into the water? "How dare you! Where is Flame you no good, back stabbing, good for nothing hunter!" I hear the pureblood's gang start yelling at my back. Rolling my eyes, I shed my boots and hat, jumping into the icy water after her. Adjusting quickly to the water, I spot strands of hair that resemble fire that belong to the hunter girl. Swimming over to her I see that she's unconscious. How long has she been down here?

I reach over for her. Her skin, it's as cold as ice. No, color to her skin at all. Lips, a shade of purple reserved for the dead alone.
