Vampire Knight : inheritance

Zero's realization

Zero's mouth dropped and he started to laugh shaking his head in what Cross presumed was disbelief. "Um... Zero, you, ok?" lavender locked onto hazel, amusement written all over his face. "Its funny because Yori feels the same exact way." He answered before continuing to laugh at himself.

The human male frowned. "What's that suppose to mean?" he questioned not catching up just yet and Zero stopped, returning his gaze to the older male. "It means there is no problem. They both like each another and can work it out their selves." he dryly stated, getting bored of the conversation again.

Cross looked towards Toga and the raven headed male shrugging. Gaining a slight huff from the ashen blonde before he turned back to Zero. "So you don't really care then? I thought you wanted to kill all purebloods?" he asked, wanting to check Zero's mental state more thoroughly.

Lavender turning round, let white lashes bat a moment in contemplation of what his father figure just said. Recognition finally flashing, Kiryu shook his head. "No... i-i was just in so much shock I lashed out. I'll make sure to apologize later." he promised looking down with a somewhat guilty expression.

The three sat in silence after that, the awkward situation not altering until Cross decided to speak. After all, since all is shared it would be best to end it and let Zero go back to bed. "Well, since that's all taken care of." he begun clasping his hands together as he across from the seat ready to return to his desk. "lets tell Yori to come he--" "wait..." zero interrupted, hand reaching out and grasping the edge of the mans shirt, looking somewhat like a lost child.

When the two looked his way, his eyes widen and he somewhat blushed, becoming slightly flustered by his own actions. "Um... cross... teacher," he mumbled, beginning to scratch his head. "H-how can you tell... a vampires rank?" Both Cross and Yagari looked towards one another in confusion. The blonde fully turned crossing his arms. "We can't really tell their ranks, we simply level out their power level from actual battle experience... We taught you that al-" "I know! But... How else can I..." his voice died out and he clenched both hands over his face laying low.

"I had a dream of the past... But it was different? I could hear and feel her... And so many things have changed and I don't know if i..."

Zero stopped sighing as he rose up, both of his parental figures looking very worried. Biting his lip he sighed again. "Shizuko Hio told me that once she dies, and that i... re-merge with my other half, Ichiru. Th-that I will turn into her next heir. And not too long ago, on my last mission. A vampire called me a pureblood... I don't know what to think or do about this and it bothers me." he spat out in one go.

Both faces in front of him quickly changed after that. Both of them turning pale, Cross's expression turning very dark. "Zero, are you implying that you became a pureblood. To her bloodline..?" He gawked out, his voice deep and each word stressed, the tone become worse as he continued. "That's not going to be easy to handle. Once it gets out there's no guarantee the committee will let you roam freely. They might lock you up Again like before!" He panicked, looking to Toga again for some sort of comfort or help. The man stood silent and pointed to Zero; hazel roaming back.

Kiryu was shaking his head, hair falling around unevenly. "I know, but that doesn't change anything! If I really am turning or turned into one how will I handle it? I still can't drink those godforsaken tablets, and if I just lose it and bite someone they will turn..." the idea of causing the same pain he felt to another sent shivers down his spine. The boy clenching the couch in sheer panic.

Hazel clashed with blue again, this time the blonde male urging the silent observer to participate. An angry pout warn by the blonde, and Yagari laughed at him, walking to the lost boy on the couch. "how long has it been since you've last drank blood." Zero's teacher questioned. Trying to start from Somewhere. " about a month or so..." Came the response and Kaien smiled, mainly please Yagari listened. "that's a good amount of time. Why don't you get a vampire lover then!" Cross jest hand clasped and smile even brighter.

Two pairs of eyes quickly narrowed as Toga and Zero slammed down their palms against any surface near, simultaneously shouting "NO!" and cross laughed. "I'm just kidding, just kidding. Well mostly... But you can't really get a human one." The blonde confessed, the two groaning with the disappointment of how true that was.

The 200-year-old blonde then waited for a few moments, and once everything settled down spoke again, expression grim. "Moving on... The best thing to do Zero, is to keep it a secret for now. so lets just focus on getting prepared to receive Yuki and Kaname for now. ok?" they all bowed their heads in agreement each taking their leave now that the subjects were out and spoken of. Cross alone with himself and thoughts.

Walking behind his desk, the man took a heavy breath sinking inside his rounded chair. "Just what am i to do with all of you?" he asked the question fading away.
