I have already posted this chapter, but I have also revised it. It would mean the world to mean if people who read can leave a review, because I am honestly not sure if it is worth continuing this story if I have no motivation.

―――

I can remember the day my father told my mother to take me and to leave; she didn't hesitate to take me away. I asked my mother why we left my father behind with the monsters and mother smiles sadly at me.

"It's daddy's job to get rid of those beast in human form."

I didn't get what those beast were at the time, but never once did my mother stop running away from them, not until recently at least. I never seen her so scared, so nervous like she was going to break down and go crazy. For all I know, she was on the verge of going crazy. I tried to find my father but to no avail, so I settled on doing exactly what my mother told me to do, go to Cross Academy.

―――

Forevermore

First Night

―――

Kai Makoto glared up at the prestigious Cross Academy, covering her grey eyes from the glare the sun gave from behind the tall school. This was the last place she wanted to be, because according to her mother this school had a Night Class, which meant vampires. Apparently the Headmaster here is one of her father's closet friends. Maybe he could help her track him down, and this was what Kai kept telling herself as she stood in front of the tall metal gates.

Kaien Cross can help me find my father.

Kai sighed and glanced down at her bags in her hands. It was sad to her that she didn't have very many belongings because all her stuff literally fitted in the three bags she held. Most of it was clothing and special sentimental trinkets, and her spell books- nothing really worth money if someone decided to rob her.

"Do you need help?"

Kai looked up from her bags to meet a warm pair of reddish brown eyes, giving her a kind smile. The eyes belonged to a brunette that cut her hair short so the tips brushed the nape of her pale neck. She wore a uniform that consisted of black with white stripes with a bit of crimson. Next to the girl was a tall male that looked brooding with his lilac eyes narrowed at Kai. He had silver hair and wore basically the same uniform as the girl, but the male version.

"Kind of." Kai said sheepishly. "My mother recently enrolled me into this school."

Why was she being shy? Kai knew she wasn't shy but yet she was. She also felt, something unhuman about both the people in front of her, and for some reason the silver haired male looked familiar to Kai. The girl perked up and smiled brightly, which Kai didn't like. Kai wasn't a fan of the happy-go-lucky girls, but yet this girl in front of Kai seemed a little different from past meetings.

"Headmaster Cross didn't say a thing about a new student." The silver haired male grunted.

Kai, though was a serious person but yet easily distracted, looked at the silver hair. "Is it natural? I've never seen silver hair before."

The only answer Kai got was a glare which caused her to roll her eyes. All her shyness gone at the moment. "Yup, defiantly moody." Kai decided in her head.

"Well even so, I'm still here to enroll." Kai idly said.

The girl's smile never faltered, "Well I'm Yuki Cross and this is Zero Kiryu."

Kai's eyes widen, she remembered that last name anywhere.

"Where do you think you are going Yagari!"

Yagari stood at the foot of the door, glancing down at his small family. Ten year old Kai sat there listening to her parents argue yet again. This was it; her father was really going to leave to hunter the beasts in human form.

"I have a student to teach, Mary!" Yagari yelled right back.

Mary gave his a hurt look, "What about your daughter? Are you leaving her behind for the Kiryu boy? To teach Zero?"

The atmosphere went deathly calm, and Kai felt the tears pickle as she listened to her father's next words.

"He needs me more than Kai ever will. She has you Mary, you can teach her-" Yagari was cut off.

"Teach her what exactly? Vampire Hunting? I'm a witch not some damn vampire hunter! Damn it Yagari! We aren't your little secrets, we are people too. Or do you regret it? Everything we ever had because we aren't human?" Mary's voice took on a dangerous edge.

Yagari sighed, "No, you know that isn't it Mary, but we both know this isn't going to work out with us. It's best you take Kai and help her as she grows older."

"Like how you're doing for Zero Kiryu?" Mary snapped.

Yagari never replied, and Mary had enough.

"Get out of my house now!" Mary said, shoving Yagari out the front door just as he saw Kai run for the stairs.

"Kai!" Yagari yelled.

Mary paused from closing the door, "Stay the hell away from my daughter while you're at it!"

Then the door slammed shut.

It left Kia wondering why exactly she was looking for him, maybe pure curiosity or the fact that she missed him, but anger and betrayal flared through her in a strong wave at that very moment and she wanted nothing to do with him. Now Zero Kiryu stood in front of her, and Kai felt a strong dislike flare through her veins.

"Hello? You in there?" Yuki waved her hand in front of Kai's face.

"Oh?" Kai blinked. "Yeah, sorry. Names Kai Makoto."

Yuki smiled with a nod and grabbed one of Kai's bags from her hands. "Let me help you."

"Yuki, you really don't." Kai insisted, taking the bag back from here, only to have Yuki grab it again.

"No I insist!" Yuki declared. "Zero help her with her other one."

Kai felt his hand brush against hers as her grabbed his bag, and she jerked it away. She didn't want to have any contact with him at all, nope- nada. Ignoring his stare, Kai fallowed Yuki down the halls until she came across the main building, and all three of them entered.

"So Kai, where do you come from?" Yuki asked.

"Moved around a lot with my mom, so I don't really remember." Kai answered honestly.

"Your father?"

Kai bit her lip, "He left to teach."

Yuki looked over at Kai, "He teaches?"

"Trains, you could say that. He trains younger people to hunt." Kai tipped her head back, "He left to teach some student, which was the reason why my mom and dad split up- then I was moving constantly."

She could feel Zero's stare burning a hole into the back if her head, and Kai couldn't help but smirk. Was he putting the pieces together? She felt this sense of satisfactory and for some reason Kai craved more. Kai was not a forgivable person, she was the type to accept an apology but when the first great opportunity came- she crushed that person in revenge.

"That's sad." Yuki murmur.

"Isn't Zero?" Kai asked, glancing at Zero over her shoulder through her long black locks of hair.

No answer once again, but this time Zero looked away from her and Kai narrowed her grey eyes. Turning to face forward, Kai realized that Yuki stopped in front of a door and Kai walked right into the girl.

"Sorry." Kai says.

"No problem." Yuki smiled as she opened the door into the Headmaster's office.

Kai

Okay, I'll admit it- maybe I was a little rude to Zero but yeah he's rude to. Therefore, that is my defense. Yuki seemed like a nice enough girl, a little air headed to me but that's okay! I need a friend like that, but friends are not my strong suit because let's face it- I suck at socializing. Now, the campus looks huge from just walking in, and I haven't even seen all of it yet. This mean a lot of walking, yay! Not.

"This Headmaster Cross." Yuki says with a smile.

"I thought I told you to call me father!" Headmaster cried out with tears flowing down his cheeks.

Wow, okay Headmaster is emotional unstable in my eyes.

"Okay- father." Yuki said awkwardly as if the word was foreign to her tongue. "This is Kai Makoto."

Headmaster looked as if he were about to praise Yuki for calling him father, which he probably was, and look directly at me in surprise. Those eyes, I easily placed them as Kaien. A soft smile graced my lips as I smile at the man who was a Uncle to me. I didn't recognize him until now, but he dropped contact with me and my mom when my father did.

"Kai." Headmaster got tears in his eyes and tackled me into a hug. "I missed you my darling niece!"

I was gasping for air and gently pushed Kaien away, who got the message and released me. Gasping for air I laughed, and fought the tears in my eyes. Finally someone who I deemed as family.

"Niece?" Zero questioned.

"Not by blood." I say. "But he was my father's friend, always came around- until my father left." I leveled my gaze with Kaien. "Why is that?"

Kaien sighed, "You're father didn't want to be exposed to his work, thus I had to leave as well. Do you remember- what your father did?"

"Of course I do, it was only seven years ago." I say.

"You remember the vampires?"

"Headmaster!" Yuki and Zero yelled in sync.

"You can't just tell some stranger about the secret!" Zero snapped.

My grey eyes narrowed in on him. "First of all, I'm not a stranger and second of all, I already knew because after all, my father did leave to train you, Zero Kiryu."

Silence fell upon all of us as Zero stared at me as if I were crazy. Yuki looked confused and Kaien just sighed and chuckled.

"Haven't changed at all have you Kai?" Kaien smiled before he got serious and looked at Zero. "I believe it's time for introductions Zero, this here is Kai Yagari Makoto, Toga Yagari's daughter."

"Pleasures all mine." I mock, with a grin.

Zero seemed stunned into a silence or maybe he was surprised his teachers daughter stood before him. Did my dad even speak or me or did he forget me completely?

"Kai, I think Yuki here will take you on tour." Kaien says.

"What about her uniform?" Yuki asked.

I answered for Kaien, "I have to talk to him later in private Yuki."

That earned a nod of agreement from Kaien, so I ended up leaving my bags there in his office and fallowed Yuki out into the campus with Zero trailing behind us. I could feel his stare so I tipped my head to look over at Zero.

"May I help you Mr. Kiryu?" I ask.

Zero stopped walking, his hand shooting out to grab my arm. I felt the jolt go up my arm, which meant one thing. Zero wasn't human. Crap. Okay I got five seconds to react before instincts take over. 5.

"Let me go." I hiss.

4.

He didn't move an inch.

3.

"Zero!" Yuki yelled.

2.

Nada, nope he just stared intently at me.

1.

Here we go.

"I said let go." I felt the electricity wave down my arm and Zero jerked his hand back before he gave me a confused stare.

My body reacted natural when feeling in danger or in the presence of something unhuman, because of my witch senses. My mother taught me how to control my power, and I'm still fairly new at it, but I knew enough to protect myself from vampires and hunters.

"Now tell me why you grabbed me." I demand, turning to face Zero fully.

Zero's stoic expression never wavered, "You're really his daughter? He use to talk about you as if you were dead."

I didn't really know how to take that, and without really filtering that through my brain- I took it the wrong way. Did he mean I was dead to my father or my father talked about me as if I were dead? I don't know, but I felt that anger engulf me.

"I'm probably dead to him Zero, after all- he did leave me behind for you." It was cruel to say that, but I saw that flash of guilt in his lilac eyes before it was gone.

"He did it for your own good." Zero replied, walking ahead of me and Yuki.

I stared after him and glared, but when Yuki touched my arm. I calmed down. I was tense and everything in my head was putting me on edge. That wasn't helping either or the fact that vampires were very close by. I didn't feel safe or secure; I haven't for seven years because my security left when my father walked away. I was a daddy's girl and it crushed me knowing that he left, and the twisted part I hated the most was that I knew if he came back into my life- I'd cave in a forgive him.

"Zero is a bit rough." Yuki said reassuringly. "But once you get to know him, it gets better."

"Hn." I grunted. "I don't want to get to know him Yuki."

I saw Yuki wasn't paying attention as she looked over to the forming crowd of girls that surrounded in front of the gates. Wow, my guess is that's for the Night Class. I'm taking this as my cue to leave, so I start to back track to the Headmaster's building, but someone grabs my arm.

"Where are you going Kai-chan?" Yuki questioned.

"I need to speak to the Headmaster Yuki." I reply not even looking back.

Then my arm was released and I heard Yuki's running feet echo off into the distance fallowed by her shouts and blowing a whistle. She was trying to control the mob of girls. Laughing I head back to the office.

Kaien was still in his office when I returned and gladly took me into the office and locked the door before he lost his cheerful demeanor and became serious once again. Sometimes I wonder if he has this personality disorder that he just keeps a secret, because it seems like it. Kaien always was serious, but then he developed this cheerful persona.

"So this Night Class are vampires?" I quirked, sitting down. "How did that happen?"

Kaien sat down across me, "I became a pacifist Kai. I honestly believe that humans and vampires alike can co-exist, thus this school was created, just for that one purpose. Your father and Zero both think this is a hopeless idea, but I don't. I have faith in this."

Well, what was supposed to say? I don't know much on vampires but he was staring at me like I was the one who held all the answers in the world.

"Well, Kaien-"

"Call me Uncle like you use too!" Kaien cried before regaining his posture.

I gave him a strange look. I seriously worry sometimes.

"Okay, Uncle, I don't know much on the vampire concepts, but I don't think this is the greatest of ideas to throw humans and vampires into the same school, especially how they Day Class seems to fawn over them. It's not healthy, but I'm willing to give it a chance." I smiled at the end and was pulled into a airless hug.

"Thank you Kai-chan! You believe in the idea." Kaien cried.

"No, I believe in you." I corrected, only to gasp at the tightening hug. "Uncle, cant breath. UNCLE!"

Kaien let go and let me cough and pull in deep breaths to get air back into my lungs. Jeez, he was a vicious hugger. Hug people to death, that was his ability. No I highly doubt that but it could be. Sometimes I wonder how he ever learned to hug so tight.

"Now about you." Kaien said, clasping his hands together and resting his chin on top of them. "You've begun your witch training from your mother?"

I nodded, "Yes, I have. I know the basics and I'm still learning the other spells. I just started potions."

Kaien nodded, "You sense the vampires don't you?"

"Yes."

"Your first instinct?"

"Um." I bit my lip. "Is to protect myself. Witches and vampires naturally don't get along due to sour history."

"Your safe here, but I want to make you a guardian with Zero and Yuki. You can only use your powers here for defensive reasons, nothing else." Kaien was strict but I grinned and nodded.

I knew I had to abide to his rules, I owe him that much respect. Wither or not I wanted to become a guardian or be- wait, what the hell is a guardian?

"Uncle, what is a guardian?" I ask.

Kaien pulled a uniform for me out and handed it to be with a white badge. "A guardian protects the Night Class's secret of being a vampire, the Day Class can never find out about them Kai."

I nodded, taking my things. "What about my secret?"

"I'll keep it a secret as long as I can, and you're free to keep it to yourself if you'd like." Kaien smiled and handed me a keep. "Since the Day Class dorms don't have much privacy with the other students living there, you'll be staying in this building. Use the kitchen and books to your resources because I want you to wield your power wisely."

I smiled, and I felt so thankful in that moment that I have someone else watching out for me besides my mother. I hope she's okay, because she was a mess when I left her. Gah, that made me a bad daughter, I left her in the middle of her break down- but she kept muttering all the time. Maybe she didn't just finally go crazy, you never know. Huh, well, I can pray.

"Thank you Uncle." I grinned, grabbing my bags and my uniform and the badge, heading down the hall and towards the stair case. I glared at each step with hatred as I walked up with all my stuff, once again panting for air when I reached the next landing. I then continued my way down the hall and turned the right corner, finding my room right there. Opening the door, I dropped everything to the ground, kicked the door shut and fell to my bed.

Exhausted, I let out a sigh. Tomorrow was going to be something interesting.

This is my second Vampire Knight fanfiction. I know it is a ZeroXOC love story, but I didn't want it to be one where the OC is entranced by Zero at first sight. I wanted to do a Yagari daughter fan fic so yeah. It would mean so much if people actually reviewed on my story, so I actually know people like my story.

Please leave a review.
