A/N: Hey! This is my newest story. I don't own Vampire Knight or any characters. I wish I did though, then Yuki would have never left with Kaname.
Full Summary: What if Kaname Kuran never got the chance to bite Yuki Cross? What if Zero never drank Ichiru's blood, and Ichiru never tried to kill off Rido Kuran? Join Yuki, Zero, as well as others, as they deal with new problems and old problems that just became a whole lot worse. Rated M for later chapters.
Chapter One: Kaname's Threat
Yuki Cross sighed as the Day-Class girls crowded in front of the moon dorms.
Man, I wish they didn't do this every day, Yuki thought as she pulled her long, brown, hair back into a messy bun. Yuki noticed Zero on the other side of the group of girls not even bothering yet to try and fight them.
"Aido!" A bunch of girls screamed as Yuki pushed them back.
"Day-Class students need to go back to their dorms now!" Yuki called out to deaf ears as they screamed out the names of the Night-Class students that they liked. Once the doors opened did the girls really go wild.
"Good morning ladies," Aido greeted as usual.
"Aido, not cool! Don't push!" Yuki held a line of girls back as he passed along with Senri Shiki.
"Sorry, Yuki." Aido waved to her before heading off to class.
"Good evening, Yuki," Kaname Kuran said to her as he passed, watching her as she shoved some girls back.
"Evening," Yuki called back, before being shoved to the ground by a line of girls.
"If Day-Class students don't get back to their dorms, they will be taken to the chairman's office," Zero's voice rang out as he stepped around the group of girls who shoved Yuki to the ground. All the girls sighed and started to dissipate.
"Thanks, Zero." Yuki took his hand and pulled herself back up.
"No problem. You okay?" Zero's eyes ran over her legs and arms, looking any trace of cuts that may start to bleed-not that he wouldn't notice right away before seeing the blood.
"Yeah. Man, I still can't believe those girls…" Yuki trailed off as she looked over at Kaname who was still standing there. "Get to class, Kaname. You know the rules, since you helped make them." Kaname took a step back, surprised by Yuki's comment. Zero smirked at the words before he turned around and headed into the forest. Kaname stared at Yuki for a moment before finally speaking.
"Yuki, what's going on?" Kaname questioned as he walked towards the female guardian of Cross Academy. "You're never like this with me."
"Yeah, well, I'm tired of you treating me like a child. Kaname, I also can't forget what you almost did to me," Yuki stated as she watched him. Kaname's hand suddenly struck her across the face.
"You DARE talk to ME that WAY? After it was ME who SAVED YOU all those years AGO?" Kaname yelled at Yuki, his eyes flashing red with a power surge from his emotions. Yuki held her face where she was struck, staring at Kaname with pure fear in her eyes. Suddenly Zero reappeared with his Bloody Rose drawn.
"Kaname! You don't strike women, especially Yuki!" Zero growled as he pulled the trigger of his beloved gun. The shot rang out into the night, with a bullet grazing Kaname's arm.
"Zero…" Yuki whimpered as she got up and ran to him.
"Are you okay?" Zero inquired , never taking his eyes off of Kaname. Yuki nodded her head slightly and drew in a shaky breath. "Kaname, what caused you to hit Yuki?"
"I'm sorry, Yuki. I don't know what came over me," Kaname said as he held his arm where Zero's bullet grazed him, completely ignoring Zero and his question. Yuki whimpered slightly and shrank away from him. Noticing this, Kaname sighed. "I guess I will be heading to class now." Only when he was out of sight did Zero lower Bloody Rose and turn to face his friend.
"Yuki, are you truly okay?" Zero held arms open, showing that he wouldn't harm the frightened girl any further.
"Zero!" Yuki cried as the dams broke and the tears stared to fall. Zero pulled her into his chest, allowing her to cry into his shirt. "I was so scared. I thought that he was going to do something worse than strike me."
"Yuki…" Zero trailed off as he tightened his hold on her as she continued to sob into his chest.
"I have no clue on what I said that caused him to hit me. All I know is that he is no longer the same Kaname who saved me eleven years ago. You were listening to us right?" Yuki asked as she looked up at him. Zero nodded his head. "I thought so."
"Yuki, please stop crying. I'm sorry that I wasn't able to stop him. And I have no idea on what you said that could have caused him to do that to you." Zero rested his head on top of Yuki's as she pressed her face back into his chest.
"It's okay. Thank you for saving me when you did. But, you do know that you will be in trouble with the Senate now. They can claim that you tried to end a pure-blood's life. A taboo for them." Yuki looked up at Zero with a tear-stained face.
"I can claim that I was protecting a human. He could have tried…that one time again," Zero said as he thought about the night that Kaname almost bit Yuki-almost turning her into a vampire. Yuki pressed her hand against Zero's cheek, causing him to look at her.
"I know. That's why I'll back up your story. I seriously thought that he was going to bite me for a moment." Yuki watched as Zero's eyes softened for her. Suddenly, Zero stiffened and took a sharp breath as an unwanted presence made it-self known. "Zero?"
"Yuki," Zero said her name as he brushed her hair from her neck. Yuki saw the red haze in Zero's eyes, showing that his lust for blood was present. Tilting her head back, Yuki exposed her neck more for Zero to have better access. Zero lightly licked her neck, before sinking his fangs in. Yuki closed her eyes and took deep breaths as Zero drank from her.
I know why I do this. Zero's a rare. His body rejects the blood tablets, causing him to only be able to survive on actual blood. This is the only way to keep Zero sane, even if only for a little while. This is the only way to keep Zero with me for whatever time he has left. Yuki thought as Zero released her neck and started to lick the blood that trailed down her neck.
"I'm sorry, Yuki." Zero whipped his mouth on his jacket sleeve. Yuki saw the regret that he had in his eyes, the regret that he can only survive on her blood.
"Zero, you're a rare. This is the only way for you to survive." Yuki pulled out a choker that she started to wear after the Kaname incident a year ago. Yuki put it on as Zero watched her, regret still in his eyes.
"Yuki…" Zero trailed off as he sat down on the ground, leaning against a tree.
"What is it?" Yuki questioned as she knelt down in front of him.
"Nothing. Forget about it. I'm heading towards the front. Will you be okay back here?" Zero stood up and helped Yuki up as well. Yuki nodded her head and Zero walked towards the front-leaving Yuki there just as the night classes ended. An hour passed before Yuki realized that she was not alone. Whipping around, Yuki saw Kaname walking towards her.
"Yuki, what's wrong?" Kaname asked her as she pulled her Artemis rod out.
"Kaname, you know that you should be in your dorm after your classes end." Yuki watched Kaname as he came closer to her.
"I know. I just wanted to talk to you really quick."
"About what?" Yuki relaxed her stance a small bit.
"I just wanted to tell you that you are mine. I don't care on what anyone says. You belong to me and I will kill anyone who gets in my way," Kaname said before he pulled Yuki's face up to his and kissed her forcefully on the lips. Kaname pulled away and smirked at Yuki before leaving. Yuki trembled in fear as she sank to the ground crying.
A/N: So what do you think? I know that Zero, Yuki, and Kaname are OOC, but this is how I see them. Read and review please!
