~Chapter 2~
As I flew around the corner terrified I tried to stop seeing Hanako and Trace in my mind. Then I flew right into Aishi-maru Kuriomu. I fell back onto the cold tile but he didn’t even though we just ran right into each other. When I looked up at him he looked angry… His expression lightened quickly when he looked at me. His frightening scowl actually turned to a warm smile and he helped me up.
“Umm…hello Aishi-maru,” I said.
“Hi, I’m so very sorry for running you over like that,” he said. His hair hung over one pretty blue eye, the other melted my heart.
“Oh, umm, it’s alright, I’m sorry,” I said quickly blushing.
“Have you seen Trace and Hanako?”
Then she came around the corner smiling followed by Trace. Her smile faded into curious innocence. Aishi-maru looked down at her like an angry parent. She smiled gently and licked her lips. I stood between them looking at her and Trace in horror. I backed away into Aishi-maru.
“Oh! I’m sorry again Aishi-maru!” I said
“It’s alright,” he said then looked back at them, “Why are you scared of them?” I knew he wasn’t actually asking me.
Then, the strictest teacher in Yuki Hana came down the hall. I gasped.
“Mr. Kuriomu, Mr. St. John, Miss. Kiyotu and…Miss. Northwind?” he said, “Why are you all--“
As soon as Aishi-maru put his hands on Mr. Garza’s shoulders he went silent and was staring into Aishi-maru’s eyes awestruck. Soon he broke his gaze, Mr. Garza shook his head and blinked a couple times and walked away blankly.
“What did—“ I began.
“Come now, back to class dear,” Aishi-maru cut me off. My face flushed. He took me by the arm and led me off to class. On the way there we stopped at the office. He stared into the secretary’s eyes the same way he did to Mr. Garza.
“I need two passes to class,” Aishi-maru said. The secretary wrote them out quickly and handed them over. Aishi-maru smiled.
“Thank you dear,” he said sliding them off the desk. He handed me mine and slid his in his pocket.
Suddenly Trace appeared with my books. Aishi-maru glared at him.
“Thank you,” I said. He nodded and then the bell rang. Aishi-maru took back my pass.
“I’ll go talk to Miss. Luri,” he said, “Take her to class.”
On the way there Hanako joined us. She smiled at me and Trace. It had been an awfully odd day…
“So where were you after 7th?” Elisa asked when we were back in our dorm that night.
“What?” I said. I had heard her but what was I supposed to tell her? That I was running around with vamp—well Hanako, Trace and Aishi-maru?
“Where were you after 7th period Aerowyn? Me, Damon and Clayton were all looking for you,” she said.
“Umm, making up a quiz in Mrs. Rabader’s,” I said. None of them were in that class with me.
“Oh?” she said. I looked away and nodded.
“How’d you do then?” she asked.
“Alright I guess,” I replied and went to take my shower. There were a group of girls standing there giggling and gossiping. They stopped and looked at me. One whispered something to Kaori. I stared at the blue-tiled floor and wished Elisa was there. Kaori stepped right in front of me; her hands on her hips, behind her stood 3 other girls. I hugged my towel closet to me.
“Why are you skipping with my new boy?” she said.
“What?” I said quietly.
“Elisa, that stupid bitch cow isn’t here to save you, fight your own battles!” she said.
“Stay away from Aishi-maru!” one of the girls said.
“Yeh! And Trace! They’re hers!” another said.
“Uhh--,” I started to say.
“You better stay away from them!” Reyna said.
“I’m not trying to--,” I tried to start again. Kaori took a step towards me.
“So? Why’d you skip class with Aishi-maru?” she asked.
“And Trace!” another said.
“Yura, I don’t care about Trace!” Kaori said.
“Well I do! He’s super hott!” Yura said. Kaori rolled her eyes.
“I wasn’t! I just--.” I started again.
“She was making up a quiz in Rabader’s,” Elisa said from behind me. I turned around and smiled. Oh good, I was safe now.
“Heh, okaii sure,” Kaori said.
“Yeh!” said Reyna, “Tori saw you coming out of the office with Aishi-maru!”
“Oh,” I said.
“Psh, so? That’s just a coincidence!” said Elisa.
“And then Trace appeared with her books!” Tori said.
“He was just being nice! Something you fire-breathing freaks wouldn’t know anything about!” she shot back.
“Now would anyone else like to bother Aerowyn?” she said cracking her knuckles. They sneered at her like they weren’t scared of her, but obviously they were and left the showers.
“Thanks,” I said.
“So you really were with Aishi-maru and Trace?” she asked. I was silent.
“Well?” she said.
“Oh, I ran into Aishi-maru in the office and I guess I forgot some stuff in Miss. Rabader’s room and Trace must’ve found them,” I said. She nodded slowly.
“Alright then,” she said.
~X~X~! ♣♠♣! ~X~X~
As I lied in bed I thought about what I saw Hanako and Trace do. I looked out the window and I saw the big house on the hill right outside the academy gates. There were lights on on all 3 floors.
“Is that Hanako’s house?” I whispered to myself.
“What?” asked a girl named Rema.
“Nothing,” I said.
“Wow! What a house!” she said bouncing over onto my bed, “I’ve never really looked at it before. That little girl lives up there with those two guys, huh?”
“Well, I guess,” I replied.
“So are they her boyfriends? Is she in one of that poly-whatever relationships? Or are they her brothers? Or her cousins?” she rambled.
“I don’t know Rema,” I said. I was getting pretty tired.
“Ooo, two boyfriends! Could you imagine? Do you think they have threesome!” she whispered excitedly. Rema was pretty eccentric…
“Wh—what?!” I said.
“How scandalous!” she said and smiled mischievously. She went back to her bed and smiled.
“But they’re both really hott! She’s really lucky!” she said.

I cam to Yuki Hana Academy 7 years ago. I was adopted by the headmaster, Shoji Karukana. My name is Aerowyn Northwind and I am 14 years old.
My friend, Elisa Vanden woke me up. She was more like my sister though. We’ve been close since I came here when I was 7.
Her still wet hair dripped on my face. She had just gotten out of the shower that was down the hall from the room. We shared the Mond dorm with the other girls who attended Yuki Hana.
“Hey Aero! Get up!” she said as she wrung her hair in a towel. A couple drops sprayed my face. I rolled over and looked at her. She was standing over me looking at me with her big brown eyes.
“Dude c’mon! Outta bed! Saunveil is about ready to have a fit,” she said.
Saunveil was a large, kind of scary woman. She was tall and muscular a bit with dark brown hair with hints of gray throughout the roots. She ran the east side of the Mond dorm and another woman, who I’ve never really seen, ran the west. Girls from the west have said their dorm monitor, Miss. Kellein is so easy to get passed and she never writes them up. It’s always “Next time girls! This is your last chance!”
I threw back the thick covers and stepped out onto the plush red carpet. Yuki Hana was a very luxurious first-class place. Most of its students were heirs and heiresses. The rest were just children of stars and the extremely rich. That is except for me. No one knows I was adopted, not even Elisa or my other best friend, Damon DiVor.
“Good morning everybody!” chimed our class president, Shirley Calwall.
“Today is Monday December 8th, 2008! Today’s breakfast is 3 chocolate chip pancakes with bacon and your choice of milk, juice or both! And remember everyone; don’t go out without a jacket, gloves, hat, scarf and a warm hand to hold!” Shirley giggled and ended the announcements.
2 wet haired girls walked by us.
“A warm hand like Damon’s, Aerowyn!”
Most of the girls teased us about being friends with a guy. Most of the guys are like the girls, bitchy, snobby and whiney and the jocks were just jerks, but not Damon. Although he truly was the wealthiest one there he still treated everyone fairly. That’s why Elisa and I were friends with him.
“Hey! Leave her alone!” Elisa said. She knew how shy I was and she stuck up for me, she always has.
The two sneered and left. They knew better than to mess with Elisa. She was the toughest girl in the east side of the Mond dorm.
“That’s right!” she said.
“El! You’re going to get me beat up!” I said quietly and desperately.
“Psh, calm down Aero! No one’s gonna lay a finger on ya!” she said.
I got up and went to get my shower. When I was done nobody was there except me obviously, they were all at breakfast already. I hurried to get dry and get my uniform on. As I pulled my skirt on I noticed a thin, pale girl coming in the door.
“Umm, hello,” I said. She looked up at me. She had the most amazing eyes I had ever seen. Their bright greenness was almost hypnotizing. She barely smiled at me. I stared at how small yet astoundingly beautiful she was. “Umm, hi…?” I said.
“Hanako Kiyotu,” she said. She began walking around the room.
“I’m Aerowyn. I take it you’re new here,” I said.
“Mmmhmm,” she answered.
“Well, umm, you’ll have to talk to Saunveil about a bed,” I said. She looked up at me.
“I won’t need one. I have an estate off campus. I’ll just be taking classes here,” she said. An estate off campus?!? Jeez, now I know Yuki Hana is a first-class rich place but I didn’t know anyone that rich! I didn’t even know such person existed!
“Oh, I see. Well, everyone’s at breakfast,” I said. I was ready to leave.
“I’ve already eaten,” she said.
“Oh, well I’ll see you later then umm…”
“Hanako,” she said.
“Right,” I said feeling kind of guilty for forgetting her name, “Bye.”
I jogged across the courtyard and slid straight through the cafeteria door Damon was holding open for me and into line between him and Elisa.
“My, my Aerowyn, late again,” he said cockily. I turned and smiled and he smirked back.
“Well…yeh,” I said.
Speaking by reputation I had the best friends ever. Damon DiVor, wealthiest guy on campus plus he was cute and Elisa Vanden, toughest girl and ranking in the top three richest heiresses here.
Then I noticed Hanako and 2 guys walk, no more like glide in. Their strange gorgeousness was just about distracting and completely evident in all 3.
“Wow. Hello,” said Elisa flirtatiously. They seemed to move different than the others around them, they walked fluidly and perfectly with the most grace I’ve ever seen.
I came back to reality from a slight nudge from Damon.
“Yeh, they’re new and pretty. Can we keep moving?” he said.
“They’re way more than pretty Damon,” Elisa remarked.
“Well, she is,” he said.
They sat down at the nearest table, which happened to be ours.
“Oh, cool,” I said.
“Definitely,” Elisa agreed.
Then 3 others sat there…the Romero twins and the one’s boyfriend. Their names were Kaori, Reyna and Yasuno. Kaori was instantly all over the taller of the 2 guys.
When we finally got our food we made our way to the table.
“Umm, hello??” Elisa said. Damon and I usually just stood back while she took care of things like this.
“Yeh? What do you want?” Kaori shot back.
“Hmm, oh, I don’t know…Maybe you should get to your own damn table!” she said.
“Nah, we thought we’d welcome these 3,” she said nicely. Just as soon as elisa was about to speak they stood.
“My name is Aishi-maru Kuriomu; this is Trace St. John and Hanako Kiyotu. Sorry for causing trouble,” he said and was about to walk away with them. Then it dawned on me that a lot of cliques had 3 people in them…odd…
“No, you stay. They’ve caused the trouble,” Elisa said.
“That’s quite alright,” Aishi-maru said, “We’ll see you around anyway, we’re attending Yuki Hana now.”
I noticed Trace was looking at me.
“Oh! Really! That’s excellent!” squealed Kaori.
“Yeh.”
Trace stuck his hands in the pockets on his Tripp pants as blonde Aishi-maru led the gentle Hanako and him away. And there went the procession of unimaginable grace.
Kaori sighed annoyed and led her clique away. Finally we got to take our seats and eat and running from class to class until lunch.
First class Trace was there, second class he was there and the same for third. This continued all day…Not that I didn’t like him or he was any less gorgeous, I just felt a little awkward since he had been basically staring at me.
As well as Trace, I had Damon’s brother, Clayton. He sat right next to me and in front of Trace.
“So, what’s up Aero?” he said.
“Not much, you?” I said. He was sweet to me.
“I’m sure Damon told you about the new house in New York,” he said.
“Well, no,” I said. Damon never bragged about the new stuff he got, or even remotely told us about it, ever.
“Well, it’s frickin’ great! You should some over with us sometime,” he said.
“Sounds fun,” I said. He nodded and smiled and class began. Everything was normal except I felt like Trace was staring at me the entire time. But why?? I haven’t talked to the guy at all! Did he think I was pretty or something?? But that’s not possible, I’m so plain, there’s nothing really special about me.
After class he approached me and I froze like an idiot…
“Hello, I’m Trace St. John,” he said.
“Oh, hi,” I said shyly. I started to walk out and he followed me out.
“So, you’ve been here a while?” he asked, his hands stuffed in his pockets.
“Yeh.”
“That’s interesting,” he said.
Why was he following me around??
“So, are you related to the other 2?” I asked finally. It was a question that had been bothering me.
“Yes, in a way. Let’s just say yes to make things easier.” I nodded although I’d like to know the whole story and all. Then Hanako came up to us.
“Hi Tracey, hi umm…”
“Aerowyn,” I said.
“Oh! Right!” she chirped. She nodded.
“Will you come with me a moment Tray-Tray?” she said solemnly although she used yet another pet name for him. He nodded and followed the small, delicate-looking girl obediently.
I watched them leave and then went to class, to which Trace was late for but had a note. He was also wearing a dark hoodie which covered his neck. I didn’t really attention to it until mid-class he began to rub his neck as if he were in pain. Soon Hanako skipped in with a note as well. She looked at me and then Trace warmly.
“Is that all that will be popping up?” joked the teacher.
Hanako sat across from me by Trace. When class ended everyone went to the left for our next class, except Hanako and Trace. They went towards the right, towards the balcony that was off-limit to students.
“Hey,” I said. They didn’t seem to hear me. I followed behind them trying to get their attention. Then Hanako noticed I was there. She smiled at me oddly.
“Oh, hello Aerowyn,” she said.
I smiled shyly.
“Umm, class is the other way,” I said, “besides, we’re not allowed out there.” Hanako bit her lip in disappointment.
“Hmm, well then let’s make this quick Tracey,” she said.
Make what quick?
I trotted after them timidly. Then I saw it. He came down to her height and pulled back the collar of his shirt. Hanako looked at me and smiled her cute, sweet, innocent, fairy-magic-sweetie-girl smile and then turned into this mega- animal and viciously rushed bright, long, stunning fangs into his neck. He winced.
I felt myself go paler than either of them and just dropped all my stuff right there in the hall. I turned around and ran for my life.
