A/N: Here is the bonus chapter that I promised. I don't think I missed anyone's request, but if I did please let me know and I'll include it in the sequel's bonus chapter. None of these shorts really tie into my story except for title 2. You could maaaaybe tie-in titles 3 and 4... maybe.
I will now be marking this story as complete.
Requested by: Quiet Intensity
Request: My version of Kaname and Isaya's relationship/conversation.
Note: For those unclear, Isaya Shoto is the pureblood douche bag WHO WANTED TO DIE that originally offered to be sacrificed for the furnace but was refused by Kaname. And then later maaaaaaaagically just so happened to fucking disappear at the end of the VK manga. Huff...
Title: 1 - Brothers In Da Hizzouz
Scene: Starts off at the masquerade Isaya held.
Isaya says, "Yo dawg, I heard you be jackin' yo life and shiz. Can I haz an invite to join?"
Kaname replies, "Aw yeah, son. Playas gotta represent the S to the UICID double E WUT!"
"Awwww snap! Fist bump, brutha!"
Sometime later, during the final battle...
Isaya goes to sacrifice himself to turn Yuuki human but Zero stops him. Kaname sacrifices his heart.
Isaya says, "Dat dawg be crazy, man." He then disappears to drink coffee and eat cloudberries.

Request: "Kaname and Yuuki" (as kids), "Kaname and Yuuki as children!"
Title: 2 - Magical Pony
Details: Yuuki is five and Kaname is seven.
Scene: The Kurans—Haruka, Juri, Kaname, and Yuuki—are in their mansion in the big, windowless room.
Haruka and Juri sat together on the couch as they watched Kaname and Yuuki playing together. Juri snuggled closer to Haruka and kissed his neck, right under his ear.
"They look so adorable together like that, don't they?" she asked.
"Yes, they really do."
"Our beautiful children."
The sounds of Yuuki's giggles filled the air. Haruka leaned in closer and whispered into Juri's ear, just loud enough so only she could hear. With a room full of vampires, it was a hard feat to pull off.
"I know Kaname is our son, but we both know he's technically our ancestor. To think he'd actually put up with something like that..." Haruka trailed off as he stared at the two young purebloods playing. "It's truly amazing, isn't it?"
Kaname turned his head and looked directly at Haruka, eyes narrowed into slits as he gave him a death glare. Haruka swallowed, realizing he wasn't as quiet as he had thought he was. The stare was clear: a threat to never mention this day to anyone.
Yuuki's giggles stopped as she huffed. "Brother! I didn't say to stop! Now giddy up, pony! Go faster!"
She grabbed the back of Kaname's shirt tighter as she swung her feet back and forth, holding up her toy scepter in the air with her free hand. Kaname turned his head away from Haruka and looked forward. He started crawling on his hands and knees again, doing his master's bidding as he continued letting her ride around on his back.
"My brother is the bestest magical pony ever!"
Kaname lowered his head so his fringe covered his face. He crawled around behind the couch and allowed himself a small smile.

Request: "Her changing!"
Note: Sorry, I know you meant her changing into a vampire but since I've already written that into the story, I'll take advantage of the double entendre.
Title: 3 - Changing
Details: Kaname is a creeper/perv... maybe?! Yuuki is human.
Scene: Yuuki is in Kaname's bedroom.
The clothes that she had planned on wearing were already laid out on the bed. She didn't want to be late for lunch with the Chairman so she had prepared everything earlier in the day. Making sure the door to the bedroom was closed, she pulled her tie loose and threw it on the bed. A sensation of being watched suddenly washed over her and she stilled, her hand on the top button of her jacket.
She turned around to see if someone had come up behind her, perhaps she hadn't noticed or heard while in her own thoughts. No one was there, causing her to frown. She shrugged her shoulders and turned back to the bed, undoing the buttons for her uniform jacket and shirt. She let them slip off before her hand went to the zipper of her skirt.
A soft noise caught her attention and she turned again, feeling tense. Still, no one was there so she frowned again and unzipped her skirt, letting that fall to the ground as well. She stepped out of it, remaining in her bra, panties, and thigh-high socks. A chill ran down her spine, causing her nipples to harden and poke against her bra.
The noise came again, but this time it sounded like a low groan. Her shoulders tensed as fear and anxiety ran down her spine. She picked up her dress and covered her chest with it as she slowly turned her head, looking at the direction of the noise.
The walk-in closet door was cracked open and she could see the light was on, having not noticed it before. There was a movement and she froze, waiting to see or hear anything else. Another low groan and more movements and her heart started to race. She took a step toward the closet, trying to remain quiet.
"Yuuki..."
The voice was low and she was sure it belonged to a man. It sounded as if he whispered it to himself. Another step forward and she saw the movement again, an arm moving up and down but not much else as the door was in the way. She couldn't see what was going on behind the closet door, but she freaked out at the implications. She screeched and ran out of the room, not caring that she hadn't put her dress on yet.
Kaname jerked up and poked his head out of the closet, wondering why he heard Yuuki yell. Was he caught? Did she see what he was doing? He hoped she didn't, he didn't want the surprise ruined. He turned back to what he was doing.
A stack of loose papers was on his lap and as he skimmed over the page quickly, he groaned at the unsatisfactory results, picking it up and throwing it on the ground in front of him. He took the charcoal pencil and started with quick, long strokes across the sheet again, wanting to make the drawing of her perfect but losing his patience with himself.
"Yuuki..." he whispered, "I want this to look perfect for you."
Requested by: Sy/Sy94
Request: "A scene of Kaname and Yuki with their children would be nice."
Title: 4 - Projectiles
Details: Kaname and Yuuki are married and have two children. Their son is three and their daughter is six months.
Scene: It's the middle of the day (when they would all be normally sleeping) and their daughter is sick. Both Yuuki and Kaname are extremely exhausted—Kaname from meetings and work and Yuuki from taking care of the children.
The unhappy howls of their baby broke the silence of the mansion, causing Kaname and Yuuki to wake up. Yuuki groaned and turned to face Kaname, throwing the covers over her head and covering her ears. Kaname sighed heavily and ran his fingers through his hair. Yuuki threw the covers off of her and huffed.
"Maybe if we wait, she'll stop crying and go back to sleep," Yuuki said wistfully. The crying continued and after another minute of hearing the pathetic cries, Yuuki started to roll out of bed.
"Wait," Kaname said. "Stay. I'll attend to her."
"Are you sure? You have another meeting with the Hunter Association today."
"Yes, it'll be fine. Get some rest."
He leaned over to her and kissed her before throwing the covers off of himself and swinging his legs over, getting out of bed. The room their daughter was in was next to theirs and would remain so until she became older. He opened the door to her room and flinched as his ears were pierced by her wailing, the sounds no longer muted by doors and the short distance between the rooms.
"Sshh. It's okay, my dear girl," Kaname tried to soothe as he walked up to her crib and picked her up. She continued to cry as Kaname started to sway back and forth, trying to rock her into peace. "Are you hungry, little one? Is that it?"
She hiccuped and looked up at him, her cries halting momentarily. Kaname stared at her big, beautiful brown eyes, just like Yuuki's. The calm was only temporary as she started to cry again. Kaname placed his hand on her chest to feel her heartbeat and tried to rub her stomach, racking his brain for possible solutions. Their son had made hardly any fuss as a baby, so this was all new to him.
"Papa?" a small voice from behind him said.
Kaname turned to see his son standing at the entrance of the room, rubbing his eyes with his tiny fists. Despite everything, he noted that his son's hair was getting too long in the front and that he'd need it trimmed soon to keep it out of his eyes.
"Did the crying wake you?"
"Uh huh," he nodded and stepped into the room.
Kaname turned his attention back to the little bundle in his arms as she suddenly stopped crying. He sighed in relief and moved to hold her in front of him, his hands under her arms so he could be face to face with her. She smiled at him and his heart swelled with the love he felt for his family.
Just then, she threw up, the contents of her stomach forcefully expelled and hitting him straight in the face. It dripped down his face to his neck and the front of his silken pajama shirt. She hiccuped again and started giggling as he held her away from him, his eyes shut tightly closed. The sound of his son laughing filled the room.
"Here, Papa. I can hold her." He felt his son's tiny hands against his as he took hold of his baby sister.
"Oh, my..." Yuuki's voice startled him. "Here." She started wiping his face with a towel as he kept his hands out to the sides, not wanting to get the vomit anywhere else.
"It's not funny, Yuuki," he growled.
"I'm not laughing..."
"Yes, you are."
Yuuki could no longer hold her laughter back as she started smacking his arm while doubling over from the fits she was having. "Oh, Kaname! You should see yourself! It's so funny!"
"Yeah, yeah. I'm going to take a shower. I think she's feeling better now," he grumbled.
They both turned to look at their daughter and noticed that she and their son were both fast asleep on the couch in the corner of the room. Their son had placed himself at the edge to block her from possibly rolling over and falling. Her little fingers were wrapped around his thumb. Yuuki grabbed a blanket and placed it over the both of them and ushered Kaname out of the room, partially closing the door behind them.
Requested by: My husband
Request: Zero using an anti anti-vampire weapon.
Note: One day my husband asked what I was up to. I told him I was writing a scene of a character shooting another with an anti-vampire gun (Sayori and Zero in chapter 17). He asked, "So, why doesn't he take out an anti anti-vampire weapon?" I made a o.O face and told him there was no such thing as an anti anti-vampire weapon in the VK world and that the character (Zero) was chained up anyway. He said, "You're the writer, you can make whatever you want happen." I told him I'd add it as a bonus (he's one of the IRL people mentioned in the A/N in chapter 20).
Title: 5 - Act Now, Save Later!
Details: Soap opera and infomercial style.
Scene: The dungeon that houses the cell that Zero is locked in.
"Sayori!" Zero whipped his hair out of his face. "Listen, I'm..." He placed the back of his wrist over his forehead and closed his eyes, lifting his head up to the ceiling. "I'm so sorry for what I did." He made a fist and looked at her with fire burning in his eyes. "Will you ever forgive me?"
"Oh, Zero!" Sayori turned from him quickly, showing him her back as she hugged herself tightly. "I... I just don't know!" She peaked at him over her shoulder. "You hurt me bad, Johnny."
"Johnny? Who is that?!" Zero's eyes narrowed at her. "You're cheating on me with another man!"
Sayori gasped, covering her mouth. "It's not what you think, baby! Johnny is... Johnny is..."
Dramatic music started to play out of nowhere, causing Sayori and Zero to look around suspiciously. She ran to the cell and grabbed the bars, pressing her face against them.
"After everything we've been through together, toots, this is how it ends up, huh?" Zero turned his face away from her, hurt.
"Johnny is... my cat! He hurt me! Look!" She lifted her sleeve up to show Zero a scratch. It was Zero's turn to gasp. "That's not all though, Zero. Is having that hunger within you making you down?"
Zero's eyes lit up as he looked up at her. "Why, yes! It is! I'm so sad... so terribly sad!"
"Well, I've got just the solution you need." She lifted up the anti-vampire weapon, Bloody Rose, and pointed it at Zero.
"Sayori! No! Don't do this to me, baby! We'll go on that long-awaited vacation. I'll go shoppin' with ya and everything!"
"It's too late. Zero, my love! Goodbye!"
She pulled the trigger, the magic bullet firing and zooming straight toward Zero. Everything slowed, showing the widening eyes and mouth of Zero as he yelled, "Noooooooooooooooo!" The pitch of his voice lowered and his word elongated from being in slow motion.
Suddenly, the bullet hit and a spark of light lit up the room, momentarily blinding them both. Sayori covered her eyes with her forearm until the light faded away. When she turned to look at Zero, he was wrapped in a blue Snuggie.
She placed her hands on her hips and cocked her head to the side while smiling at him. "Oh, Zero! You jokester!"
He gave her a thumbs up before they both turned to the camera, grinning.
"Introducing the magical, anti anti-vampire weapon Snuggie! Your own personal protection against any anti-vampire weapon that may be drawn on you!" Zero claimed.
"Tired of those pesky hunters coming after you with no way of fighting back? The anti anti-vampire weapon Snuggie is just the thing you need!" Sayori continued. "Now you can kill helpless humans and run away without having to worry about a hunter shanking you in the back!"
"You could spend hundreds upon hundreds of dollars on nifty weapons you can use to fight back, only to end up dying anyway, but they still won't do everything the anti anti-vampire weapon Snuggie can do!" Zero proclaimed.
"But!" Sayori said. "Right now, during our special introductory price, you can get this wonderful, comfortable anti anti-vampire weapon Snuggie for an amazing price of just $9,999.99. Or just four hundred easy payments of $99.99 each!"
"Wow, Sayroi. That really is amazing!"
"It really is, Zero!" she laughed. "But that's not all! Call now and you'll also receive as an amazing bonus: the waterproof anti anti-vampire weapon pancho for free! Now you can go on a killing rampage and escape hunter death during the rainy seasons too! That's a total value of over $899.99 that you're getting free!"
Zero chimed in then. "But wait! There's more! Call within the next .02 seconds and you'll receive a second anti anti-vampire weapon Snuggie FREE! Your choice of color too! All you pay is shipping and handling."
"If you feel unsatisfied or dead and feel that the anti anti-vampire weapon Snuggie didn't suit your needs or meet up to your expectations, call and we'll send you your money back. What's there to lose other than your life?!"
Both Sayori and Zero continued to stare at the camera as a phone number displayed on the bottom of the screen.
Requested by: A fan
Request: "Kaname and Yuuki are back at the Kuran mansion and he's treating her wounds and taking care of her."
Note: Since I will be making a sequel, I will put this as part of the first chapter rather than a short bonus. Sorry!
A/N: Per the votes and comments I received, the majority of everyone wants a sequel to The Vampire King as a stand-alone story. I will be starting that soon, more than likely to be titled The Vampire Queen and it will start off where TVK ended. I don't have a date of when I'll post the first chapter of TVQ yet so stay tuned if you're interested!
Any criticism, positive or negative, is welcome.
Thank you for reading.
