Chapter 12: Epilogue

Years have passed. Their family is growing and they welcoming their newest addition wholeheartedly. It seems that Yuuki just given birth to twin daughters, Ran and Ren. They both are so similar with their mother. Ruka and Akatsuki married four years ago and have four years old son while Takuma and Shiki married two years later and have three years old daughter and the second one soon coming. It took Ruka two years to overcome her feelings to Kaname and Akatsuki to woo her. Hanabusa, Rima and Seiren still single, Hanabusa opened up a kindergarten where children from various background mingle together, Rima still with her modelling career and Seiren still continuing her job as bodyguard to both Kiryuu-Kuran's family. The human slowly knows about vampires and some people accepted and some are not. Those who are into not accepting glad about the Hunter Association existence and therefore reassuring them. The HA and newly constructed vampire council, leaded by Ichiru signed peace treaty. Kaname just guiding him together with Takuma and he wanted to spend his time with the children and wanted to be a teacher because it was his long time ambition. The HA, leaded by Toga Yagari and the rest of the hunters know the truth about their ancestor and slowly bring the HA like the old times. Right now, Kaname's inner circle, Zero, Yuuki, Cross Kaien, Yagari-sensei and some close friend of Zero celebrating the twins sixth birthday. Mana and Akira Kiryuu-Kuran happily playing around in Kuran mansion together with their uncle Ichiru and their third cousin Senri Aoi. They soon joined by Akatsuki Takumi running at them and play together.

Soon after the twin's birth, Ichiru remember everything about his heritage and asking for forgiveness to Zero. Zero just chuckles and ask him to let it go, told him let bygone be bygones. Everyone already knows the truth about the Kiryuu twin and Kaname's past and they were shock at it first before acceptance comes along. Yuuki, being the kindhearted girl she is, accepted Kaname as who he is and continue to ask him to be as her brother. Takuma, being the considered friend hugs Kaname wholeheartedly, asking Kaname not to bear the burden alone and share it with them.

"Mana, Akira, come here. Your cake is ready!" said Kaname. There stood the cake for the twin. Yuuki, being their godmother ask them to wish before blowing the candles. She was swaddling Ren, the youngest while Ichiru swaddling the oldest, Ran. The birthday twin was blown the candle and cut the cake together. Takuma, seven months pregnant with a baby boy asked what their wishes is.

"We ask for a sibling!" exclaimed Mana and the other twin just nodded shyly.

"Cute!" giggled Hanabusa. Hanabusa is their second godparent and their teacher in Cross Kindergarten. Kaname just blushed darkly on their children's statement. Zero just chuckled.

"Well..., we will consider about it my children." Said Zero coyly, signaling to Kaname to agree with him.

"Yes, Mana and Akira. You wish will come true." Said Kaname.

"You mean… Oh god!" said Zero, hugging his wife and kiss him in front of the children. the children giggled at their parent antics and Ruka reprimanded them not to set bad examples on the children. Akatsuki just chuckled beside her. It seems her mother hen mode is coming out.

"Two months already…" whispered Kaname on his right ear ignoring Ruka's reprimand.

"Yeay! We have a brother or sister!" exclaimed both of the children.

"Well brats, congratulations." Said Yagari. Hanabusa just scowled at Yagari's crude calling at his godchildren, but he knows that it is an endearment to them. Yagari teach them yielding hunter weapon and it seems they can yield them even though they are pureblood children. Hybrid actually…

"Don't forget your cousin Ren and Ran too!" said their first godfather Ichiru happily. The twins blushed and laughed. All of them laughed at the family antics. It seems the Kuran mansion will not be the same like before with their presences here. Ruka and Akatsuki just smiled at them and their four year old son, Takumi joins the birthday twin, eating the cake together. Shiki feeding cake and fruits to Aoi. Kaien secretly took all of the pictures on them. He kept the pictures that he call his treasures into their family album. He smiled at all of them. All of them live happily together.

The End.
