"The play we call life, where will it lead us when it ends? Somewhere where we'll be allowed to be free."
Black with hues of purple and indigo.
That was the color of the dawn sky over above Asuka as she stared out her window. She had finally been able to fall asleep into a peaceful slumber, but her mind was still plagued. Her mind was focused on the events that had played out the previous days. The school still managed to operate after the explosions but the evidence still lay about, covering the fields. It was a depressing sight. The old architecture of the building had been destroyed, something that couldn't be replaced, only replicated into a falseness. Her hand traced along her throat subconsciously. She hadn't felt the thirst since that night. Usually, even after ingesting a blood tablet, the thirst would return after a few hours, but she could usually keep it under control.
After taking his blood, the thirst seemed dormant for the time being. She couldn't understand why, but she was grateful to the pure-blood. A smile covered her lips as she stood from her bed. She glanced at the empty bed across the room. It seemed that Haruka had still not recovered from the head injury, but the nurses had assured her that Haruka was fine, she just needed rest. She partially blamed herself for that since the girl was probably still fatigued from the blood loss Asuka had taken from her. Although a human's blood only needed a few hours to replenish itself where as a vampires blood was a bit longer than necessary. This she could attest to as she had needed blood after the incident with Zenith. She pushed those thoughts from her mind as she dressed herself.
The night class would most likely be coming from their class and with the rising of the Day Class, she could only imagine the mingling of the students with the vampires. This, however, she didn't seem to mind as much anymore. This school was here for a purpose of having the two species mingle with each other to keep the treaty that had been held as something precious and sacred. If it could allow a shimmer of light into the veil of darkness, then she would allow it. Just as long as they didn't do anything to jeopardize that trust, she would allow it. She left her room, closing the door behind her and was greeted by an odd sight.
Snow? What are you doing inside? she questioned the owl as he stood on the floor, peering up at his master. She tilted her head to the side as Snow continued to peer at her. You know you can't be inside, people will be curious and might freak out. Some people don't like owls, she continued. Snow merely blinked his eyes as he studied his master. Something seemed a bit off about her and he didn't know what it was. He had known about the thirst that seemed to be quenched for the time being, but the source of it was what had him curious. It seemed she didn't know about the lore of a vampire's thirst and the only way it could be satisfied. Oh this he had to use against her now. If he could have grinned, he would have. Instead, he opted to remain silent before Asuka walked towards a window and opened it up.
"Be a good boy and go wait outside," she stated to the owl, smiling down at him in a playful manner. Snow chuckled and obliged his master for the time being. He'd wait on the roof for her since she would be heading there later for her break. She truly loved that roof, and he didn't understand why. With Snow gone, Asuka closed the window and made herself ready for her rounds. Snow, meanwhile, wanted to laugh at the irony of being on the roof. There, with a book in hand was the one responsible for the change in his master. He settled himself so that he was above the pure-blood and glanced down at the book the vampire was reading.
"You know, my master hasn't been quite as thirsty as she used to be. And it's all thanks to that blood of yours," Snow stated in an amused voice. He had spotted the book the vampire was reading, and it was an interesting choice to say the least. He never read the book himself (he doesn't have fingers to turn the page) and his master hardly read to begin with. He'd have to change that now wouldn't he? "She won't tell you herself, but she is grateful to you for that. She's just too stubborn to admit it outloud," he continued. He wanted to embarrass his master as much as possible since he knew her weaknesses now. Oh yes...he would have to do so.
