Chapter 1: Prized Pet

The entire arena was crowded with vampires from rich to poor, screaming with excitement as the fight beneath them was getting intense by the minute. Men and women alike were placing their bets on the fighter below them. His strength was like no other; his speed was that of a true pureblood vampire, the fighter also had a beauty that could put any high-class vampire to shame at first glance. The boy had silver hair that would glow under the moonlight; his eyes were a bright violet that no one had seen before. Like his master, many of the vampires loved it most when those eyes of his were filled with anger. The anger of watching his family die before him, the anger of having the very same person that caused it take him in as her loyal pet and thrall, he who fights for the entertainment of others until he is no longer of use to his master.

This amazing fighter belonged to that of the pureblood princess Shizuka Hiou or most have called her 'the mad blooming princess'. She who had slaughtered the child's parents and twin brother in a blind rage to avenge her lost lover that was killed by the boy's parents four years ago and who still seeks her revenge on the only living member of the Kiryu clan of vampire hunters.

Zero Kiryu

The now ex-hunter was turned to a mere level D by his master and trained in the field of fighting so he can please the crowd as he fought with countless vampires mainly those of level E's. And tonight was one of those blood-filled nights.

In the arena below the silver hair ex-hunter was fighting against five overgrown level E vampires. Shirtless and drenched in their fallen comrade's blood, his blue jeans were torn in places with blood patches decorating it with the crimson color of blood. Around his slender neck was the collar of ownership, a black collar with a silver license that read:

Property of Shizuka Hiou

If lost please return to the Hiou manor at once

A high reward will be paid when returned

It was a collar embedded into his pale neck. No one but the person who placed it around his neck was to take it off him. He was forever to be a bird trapped in a cage or a lion tamed by a whip, Zero was a dog to the very end of his services to Shizuka. A useful pawn as she would put it, longing for a freedom that was never to present itself to him.

With a sword held high in his hand ready to strike at the next level E that dared to approach itself to him. And as accepted, they charged all at once craving the blood filled body before them. Zero too ran toward them and successfully cut one level E in half separating his hips from his upper body, blood splattered across his snow-white skin, staining his silver hair in the process. The crowd cheered excitedly, their cries were like a roar of thunder over Zero's head.

"More!" They cried.

"Rip his head off." They begged, all with their eyes shining a bright red as they did so.

Another level E charged at the ex-hunter, his claws lengthen at its full and ready to bury them through Zero's neck. But Zero was too quick and with a swift movement hacked off the level E's arm sending the level E in a world of pain. One of the level E's grabbed his fallen comrade's arm. He was so lost in the bloodlust and hunger that he bit down ripping chuck after chuck of fresh meat off the arm.

"Disgusting monsters, someone really needs to put you out of your misery." Zero spoke clearly disgust at the scene, but then smiled wickedly to himself answering his own question. "That's right; I'm the one sending you to the pits of hell."

Zero swung his blade around decapitating the two level E's heads before they could even react to his movements. The remaining level E thought that the venerable back of the ex-human was the best place to strike at, but Zero anticipated the move and quickly back flipped landing behind the level E using his sword to jam it right into the unsuspected vampire's neck.

The crowd was silent before erupting in loud cheers of victory followed by a few groans here and there from those who had lost their savings on the silver haired boy. However, no one was celebrating more than the master herself was. A few feet above the arena were booths where the richest of vampires would rent out and enjoy the scene in luxury. One of those rich vampires was Shizuka Hiou, who was smiling down at her pet with full out amusement in her expression.

"Didn't I tell you so Sara-sama, no one can defect my greatest weapon." Shizuka said in a cool tone.

"Humph…I'll believe it when I see him take on a full fledge higher class vampire and defect him within a certain time limit." Sara responded back not one bit impressed by the performance.

This made Shizuka chuckle evilly raising her navy blue fan so it covered her mouth as she laughed.

"Well Sara you are quite lucky, for today you will be able to see such a rare event transpire tonight. You see Sara there are many who oppose me and deserve to be punished cruelly and when they do I send them here to be finished off by my Zero. People really should know their places in society. Don't you think Sara-sama?"

"You are absolutely right Shizuka-sama, that's why there are people like us who wish to cleanse the world of their misbehaving ways toward their superiors." Sara replied as she flattened out the creases of her long black strapless dress. Her wavy hair rested against her shoulders. Around her neck was a black choker with a blue rose on the side of it, matching it was a rose shaped earring on either side of her ear.

"You are indeed right there, Sara-sama."

"Please do call me Sara; I really am not a fan of the formalities when it comes to another pureblood, especially if it is a family so close behind the Kuran clan in status."

"Just because I am engaged to a pureblood of the Kuran clan does not mean I am close to such highness."

"You may not see it that way but I do and as well as the other purebloods and lower class vampires do as well."

Shizuka stood up from her seat next to Sara and gracefully walked over to the bulletproof class that looked down at the arena below.

"May I remind you that Rido could clearly be dead or at least in a slumber?" Shizuka questioned.

"Yes he disappeared one night without a trace. Even though I clearly believe that the council knows where to find him. Mainly that old bastard Asato who is the head of the vampire council and caretaker to the prince of the vampire world Kaname Kuran."

"That is exactly why I am perfecting Zero's training, so he can defect Rido once and for all. I want him to pay dearly for placing the name of my lover on the hunter's blacklist and getting him killed by lowly hunters of the Kiryu clan." Shizuka growled, her anger slightly cracked the bulletproof glass in front of her.

Sara didn't answer, but understood what Shizuka was saying. Not that Sara cared about Shizuka in any way since she herself wanted to eliminate any competition she has that will make it difficult for her to become Queen of the vampire world.

Shizuka closely observed Sara through the glass of the window before her. Sara remained with her solemn expression clearly knowing that she was being watched and most likely tested to see if she can be a close ally in Shizuka's future skims.

"I guess we will wait and see if he is truly alive then." Sara finally answered.

Shizuka nodded then turned her attention down at the silver hair boy below. "My dear Zero you have done well for a level D such as yourself. I think it may be time to award you for your good efforts."

"Ah! So you do treat your pet nicely Shizuka." Sara asked interested to know the answer.

"Only if he behaves himself like a good little doggy he is. Only then will he be rewarded like one."

"Oh my, then that must mean he is a very naughty boy then." Sara practically purred as she said this. "Maybe I shall train him in ways both fitting for master and slave."

Almost immediately, Shizuka became her possessive self and turn to glare at Sara who seemed slightly effected. "Zero is mine. No one will have the chance to touch him let alone stare at him in any way, even to the likes of you or any high authority; do I make myself clear, Sara?"

"Gees…Shizuka slow your row, I promise not to lay a hand on that pet of yours." Sara said raising her hands in surrender.

Shizuka gave Sara a last look before looking towards the silver haired vampire. 'That's right no one shall take what is rightfully mine, especially if the person is of use to me.'

The low glow of the lights shone on her pale skin making her look ghostly in her dark blue and purple kimono. Her hair was let down with a beaded clip attached to the left side of her hair. She fanned herself with the navy blue fan as her pink eyes were staring at her pet who stared at her back; his eyes darkened when he met her amused glare.

'Those eyes my dear Zero, the ones filled with the hate you have for me belongs only to your master. The monster who has transformed you into the beast you were born to kill. Now you helplessly serve one. You will live for all eternity Zero, living by my side and serving me in many ways. I shall be the only one who gets to keep those precious eyes of yours. No one and I mean no one will have you.'
