"We all make mistakes. That is why they say live for the present because tomorrow might not come and yesterday is already too late."
Asuka sighed when people tried to comprehend what she had just told them. They had stopped, she had succeeded with that, however; they still moved about in a frantic pace. It was then a familiar scent caught wind and she spotted Sora hanging from one of the pillars to the main gates. He had spoken a name, or rather the name of a color, which left Asuka slightly confused until the sandpaper-like tongue ran across her cheek and the soft mewling of the cat left Asuka slightly amused.
"It was no wonder you seemed familiar," she stated in a dry tone towards the feline. She watched as the people began to form and left the area. As she watched as the last of the people rode off, a terrible feeling soared through her body moments before the explosions went off. All around her she could see the buildings and gates collapse. It was the mainly the main building and the dormitories that fell. Next, it was the gates. Before she even knew what happened, Asuka found her body mid-air, pushing Sora from the gate he had latched himself onto seconds before it fell. She hadn't known why exactly she acted, all she knew was that she needed to.
He was a pure-blood, and his reflexes would have probably kicked in for him, however; that thought did not cross her mind when she acted. She could feel the debris from the collapsing pillar hit her shoulder and she winced. It felt as if it had knocked it out of place, but the pain was nothing to her as adrenaline pumped through her veins. She was lucky enough to have avoided being punctured since if she were, her blood would be spilled. She couldn't have that now could she? She winced as she grabbed her shoulder and glanced at Sora. She merely nodded in his direction before taking off again. She pressed against her shoulder and noticed it was fine, just slightly bruised now. Even for being half vampire, her human side tended to get the best of her when it came to things such as this.
Snow, I need you to come back, she stated with a calm mind. She needed his help to find the students and teachers that were undoubtedly underneath the rubble. That was when a scent filled the air. She knew who it belonged to and immediately her head snapped in the direction. Roses. It was the scent of roses tainted with a metallic, iron smell, and yet; it was pleasing to her senses. She shook the sudden want to taste it to the back of her mind as she made her way towards the building.
Asuka, he's been hurt with an anti-vampire weapon. He won't heal properly from that, you need to do something, she could hear Snow state. What could she do? She was just a prefect, and her attention was needed else where. There were students probably trapped beneath the debris that needed her help. Haruka won't make it with him on her own, he continued to banter her. Before she could retort, a hand laid itself on her shoulder as she peered into honey brown eyes. Hayate had several bruises on his arms and face, however; there were none too serious at the moment.
"Go, we will take care of this here," were the words that left Hayate's mouth as she slowly nodded. She took off in the direction where she had last seen Haruka and Zenith went. She ran as fast as her legs could carry her, which was an amazing feat considering she was half-vampire. All she had to do was follow the scent of roses and it would lead her to where Zenith and Haruka were located. It hadn't taken her long to approach the duo and noticed the pure-blood just as he told Haruka to leave him for it wasn't safe. He was right, the allure of his blood would undoubtedly arouse some of the other vampires. Even if they respected him, if enough vampires banned together, they would probably over take the pure-blood and try to drain him dry.
"You were attacked by an anti-vampire weapon. You need blood to heal that wound or else it will not heal properly. And those blood tablets will not suffice for it," she stated as she walked with a brisk pace. If what she had witnessed through Snow's eyes was true, then Haruka was lucky to have the pure-blood there to protect her even if he had not knowingly did so. She stopped inches away from the pure-blood and stared at him, her eyes flickering between crimson and jade. As much as she didn't want to, she would have to if he needed it. "You can't feast on a human less you risk turning them, and I know you will object to this," she continued as she pulled her arm out in front of her.
"But if you want that wound to heal and live, you may take mine," she stated in a rather eerily calm voice. "I do not risk exposure like they do," she continued. She hadn't exactly thought this plan through. For years she tried to hide her secret, keep it unknown to the world, but here she was offering her blood to the pure-blood in front of her. Maybe it was because Haruka was around and, even if she didn't show it, this pure-blood vampire in front of her would become an influential importance to Haruka's life. She wasn't doing this out of pity either. She might have regretted biting Haruka, but she wasn't going to allow a pure-blood under her watch to die because of an idiot.
