Sorry for the long wait. If anyone noticed, I've been changing my writing layout (I guess) and how I write. I really enjoy this fic, well enough to feel like its going in a good direction~ Albiet, it is quite short but in any case, I hope you like it (;

The dark clouds outside were rain clouds. Kaname and the rest of the group left for school even though it just started drizzling a while ago. Yuki and the Chairman left and Yagari was downstairs, cooking dinner or at least something edible for Zero. Yagari told him that in an hour, he should come downstairs to eat. Zero reluctantly agreed.

The rain decorated the windows outside. That sense of hatred in his blood was calmed as he heard the pitter-patter of the rain hitting the window. The Chairman said that Zero could go back and visit Kaname if he was a good boy (a.k.a. eat his dinner and go to sleep properly). Of course, Zero played with the man and bluntly said no but the Chairman could tell he was just kidding.

He sighed deeply before right-clicking the small box in the middle of the computer. He typed in the password (which wasn't that hard; it was 'Zero and Yuki') and the computer logged him in. Zero wanted to learn more of… something. Because he knew something was wrong and he wondered if it was on the computer.

He was able to find a folder that was label "Classroom Set" and double-clicked on it. An entire list of all the students, both vampires and human alike appear before him. He smiled a bit. Maybe, he thought, he could learn something. In a space, he typed in his full name. A picture popped out but it wasn't him. Or at least, it wasn't what Zero expected.

It was a picture of him, yes in a way, but it was much older. The Zero in the picture had a more defined chin and sharper eyes. In fact, he looked like he was mad when the Chairman took the picture. The side information said that this Zero Kiryu was exactly 17 years old. Zero scrunched his brows and scrolled down, reading more. His eyes caught something quite interesting. In a small, white box, the words "vampire-hunter" was highlighted in blue color.

For the longest time, he glared at the screen. Zero didn't feel like a vampire and he didn't think he had fangs like those that are vampire. Before he could research any more, he could hear footsteps come up the stairs… from the bottom of the stairs. Quickly, he closed out of the folders and quickly went to the Games' folder and started to play Bejeweled.

The Chairman and Yagari came up and instantly stopped Zero with a wide grin on his face. Zero peeked behind and waved at them.

"Sorry, I was bored so I went on. Is that okay?"

Yagari stepped closer while the Chairman went to get his camera.

"What are you playing there, Zero?"

"Bejeweled! I found it on daddy's laptop so I wondered if I could find it on uncle's computer~" Zero replied. "I can get off if you want."

"No!"

The chairman quickly held out his camera and took a snapshot of Zero. Zero blinked at the flash, staring blankly at the man hugging his camera. He mumbled something about cute and adorable as he twirled in his little dance. Zero nervously laughed but otherwise logged off and moved away from the chair.

"Does that mean I can go visit father tomorrow?" Zero looked up, eyes wide as a puppy.

The chairman stared back, his mouth twitching at the cute little image. As for Yagari, he just stared in whole-hearted disappointment. His cute little apprentice was using all his "cuteness" to convince the eccentric man. The only thing that was even more disappointing was that the so-called famous hunter fell for the boy's charm.

Zero quickly thanked his uncle and ran out and towards his room. He had a good feeling that even if he didn't use his puppy face, he could always sneak out. Besides, he needed to know more about himself. Yet he lingered on the idea. Zero wondered, did he really want to know?

As Zero slipped in his bed, he stared at the ceiling and wondered. He wondered if his father would still love him… even if he finds out the truth.

The next day came just as quickly as the dreams disappeared. Luckily, the weather outside was beautiful and as soon as he finished his breakfast, he quickly put on his cloak and ran towards the dorms. When he opened the doors, he was surprised to find Seiren, waiting for me.

Zero stood there for the longest time before addressing her.

"Did father send you to wait for me?" Seiren just nodded.

Zero grinned and reached over and grabbed her hand. He motioned her to shush as he ran upstairs and into Kaname's private study. He asked her if she could find some paper so that they could draw together. Though Seiren looked reluctant, she found herself looking through drawers and helping Zero color in pictures and draw.
