Everything seemed to settle down in terms of human affairs. The attack of Cross Academy faded into the background with other news about the greed of mankind. The students and staff that had been injured during the series of explosions were now back and healthy once more. It was like nothing happened. No one was even talking about as if it was taboo topic. Perhaps, it was the way of humanity to cope with such unexpected occurrences. Just like that, everything was once more in a dreamlike peace. However, this was only on the surface. Deep within, everything had changed. Seeds of doubt and fear were planted within the people who knew there was more to this than a simple terrorist attack.
As for the matters of the vampire world, the news about the massacre of the Tsukino branch family spread like wildfire. There were many suspicions of why this happened. Many culprits had been rumored to be the cause. Yet, no one had enough proof to condemn these assumptions as a fact. So, it all remained a frightening mystery. Everyone was scared that they will be the next target. Even more so, when there had been a string of deaths and suddenly this. No one was safe anymore. No one was certain who could be trusted. Everything was hidden in darkness and those who held the cards were masters of the black. Somehow, there is a foreboding feeling that this was only the continuation of a nightmare that had been started a long time ago.
So, the nightmare begins...
"Alice-chan, you are so funny!" Officially, Alice had become a student of the Day class. This meant she was human and not of a vampire. But then again, her perception and knowledge of the secret world of blood makes her no innocent. "But, I can't believe it that you're Saint-sama's little sister!" Yes, her cover was completed with ease. Her looks that resembles the mysterious and distant Rosenkreuz Clan and a scent that cannot be found but those who shared the same blood. Moreover, the attachment of Zenith to her presence was enough motivating force for these simple-minded humans to conclude. Then, there was also the undivided attention from the Night class. Someone who is not a pure-blood was related to their precious of precious. How truly peculiar and intriguing.
But, it is what she wanted from the beginning. Curiosity can lead to a lot of things. Most of the time, they lead to very interesting things that she would not mind to have a hand in. "But, why aren't you in the Night class, Alice-chan?" She smiled at this question. That is a good question indeed. Why is she with such stupid humans that gathered around her like moths in an effort to appeal to her and in hopes it would reach the prince of their dreams. "Because, my brother is there. Distance is good don't you think? And..." She then looked ahead of her with a triumphant smile in which the girls gathering around her did the same. They immediately blushed at the sight which met their eyes. "I like it more when he is the one coming for me."
True to her words, Zenith was waiting for her as he leaned on the wall. It was time for lunch and he brought Alice a meal. This had become a routine for him. At the same time, he would also fetch her when classes are over. It is why the Day class were very much pleased with the addition of Alice. The Saint of Cross Academy had become a daily vision for them. He did not even deny or said anything about the little girl not being his sister. Knowing him, he was either keeping it under the wraps or did not want to lie. However, the relationship between the two was not something to be considered as false. Thus, they considered the sibling relationship to be true. In the end, the Rosenkreuz Lord was not alone at all.
Once Alice and her classmates approached him, the pure-blood gave them a polite nod as they greeted him with bashful words. Afterwards, he then gazed at his purpose of coming. "Alice, it is time to eat." She smiled brightly at this and immediately wrapped her hands around his arm. Never once did the pure-blood ever failed her expectations. She then looked at her classmates with a wink. "See you later!" Once that was stated, she pulled him away from the crowd. Outside the main halls, snow was falling like the solidified tears of the sky with such gentle sadness. As for him, he allowed the smaller girl to drag him. There were still a lot of questions in his mind. Suspicions and doubts, however, he did not want this glimmer of a dream to be destroyed with his pestering. So for now, this was fine for him.
"How was class?" Zenith queried as he was pleased to see that Alice was fitting well with the Day class even if she was not entirely human but not a vampire as well. If he could describe it, she was something between like Fujiwara. But then again, it was not the same. He knew for he had tasted the prefect's blood and the girl who he is with. "It was fine." Alice answered in an almost bored manner. Stopping in middle of the corridor, she turned to look at him with that usual emotional face of his. Her red eyes held a certain gleam that he could not identify. "Hey Zenith, do you like someone more than me?"
There was silence on his part. It was not because he had no one in mind or he did not want to lie. It was just every time he looks at Alice. All he could see was her. Would it proper to say no one when he was seeing another person entirely? He was confused but even so this never portrayed in his face, eyes, or gestures. "Oh, the prefect is here!" Alice noted with excitement as he looked at the direction. As for Alice, she bounded towards the girl and smiled sweetly. This prefect was truly of interest to her in more ways than one. "Hello Prefect Fujiwara!" She started and then that smile slowly changed into an amused one. Those eyes of red seemed to glow ever so softly which almost look like an illusion. "Hey, do you really believe you're the only one?" Alice's words hanged in the air before she returned to Zenith's side. "I'm hungry, Zenith! Let's go eat!"
