Every rose has it's thorn
Just like every night has it's dawn
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
Every rose has it's thorn
Chapter 2:
(Flashback Cont. from chapter 1)
A couple of months later, Zero had fully recovered from his near death and was back home now. Problem was, the Association wasn’t too sure what to do with him. To them, the great Kiryu name had been poisoned with the last existing Kiryu having now been turned vampire. (Ichiru doesn’t exist in this story either.) They knew he was stable do to the fact that Kaname had given Zero his blood. They were angry about that and felt that it would have been better if the 20yr old had died right along with his parents. At least that way, the honor of the family would be intact. Now, the shame was considered on Zero for having survived that night.
Zero, sat in an unlit room in his apartment, staring at nothingness. He himself was wishing he had died that night and he was angry that he hadn’t. His life had no meaning now. The Association didn’t want him anymore and he didn’t have any time to make any friends outside of the Association. Now those friends he did have won’t have anything to do with him. He sat there trying to figure out how to end his life, but unable to since all of his hunter weapons were taken from him, and his healing abilities wouldn’t allow him to die by normal suicidal means.
As he sat there trying to figure all of this out, his doorbell rang. He called out to allow whoever it was to enter; surprised that someone would come to see him at all. As soon as he saw who it was, he jump out of his seat, jumped on the intruder, and started to pummel him until he had no more energy left.
That was when he broke down and began to cry. “Please…please, just kill me. I can’t take it. I’ve lost everything and have nothing left to live for. Please, put me out of my misery Kuran. Please….” Kaname was surprised, but not too much. He knew that Zero was going through a very hard time. With the loss of his family, the Association turning their backs on him, and all of his supposed friends abandoning him, yeah, Zero was currently going through hell.
Honestly he didn’t know why he saved the hunter. He knew that he could potentially lose everything, but his instincts told him he just couldn’t let the hunter die. When he heard what was going on with this hunter, he was angry. For all of the supposed peace and all of the hard work they went through for co-existence, they treat one of their best hunters as garbage when he’s turned against his will. He promptly resigned his post as liaison to the Association and informed the Senate of this action. This of course caused an uproar with both of them, but he made his decision. He had hoped that Zero would come to him, but he didn’t and Kaname’s concern had grown over the last few days. Finally, he needed to Zero how Zero was doing, so he came to see the other. The surprise was that Zero didn’t try to kill him, knowing full well he was angry if not full of hatred. The surprise was also that instead of trying to kill him, he just beat the crap out of him. He figured he deserved it though considering he was the cause of his current problems.
The one thing he hadn’t thought was a possibility was that Zero would want to end his own life. Was it truly that bad? In trying to understand where Zero was at, he tried to place himself in the others shoes. He understood the loss of his family, so that was hard at all. What if he lost everything else? The horror of what he would be feeling sent him reeling. Zero had lost everything, basically, all in one night. Not just his parents, which is hard enough as it is, but his whole life. Maybe it would have been more merciful to not have saved him, but it’s too late to try to reverse the damage done.
By the time that Kaname was back to reality, Zero had already cried himself to sleep. Kaname knew he couldn’t leave Zero alone, not with the way he was feeling. It looks like he really messed up and it was up to him to give Zero a new purpose in life, something worth living for. He picked up the ex-hunter, carried him down the hall to the bedroom, and to the bed that was there. He didn’t undress the other, but just covered him up with the tattered blankets that were there. Kaname then looked around the room for something to sit upon, and found an old almost broken down chair. He scooted the chair over to the bed, unwilling to leave Zero alone for a moment. If left to his own devices, who knows what he might do. He just wasn’t ready to take that chance.
While he was sitting there, he took the chance to look around the apartment that Zero was currently living in. It looked like one of those places he would have condemned for fear of diseases that could be passed from one person to another and kill people along the way. His clothes seem to be in great condition, but everything but everything left a bad eye sore for him. Furniture in a bad state of disrepair, the bedding looking like the world’s largest moth made a feast of the whole thing, and upon inspection of the rest of the apartment, to be honest, it was a miracle that anyone could live here.
He went back to the bedroom and sat in the chair by the bed. He sat there hoping that Zero would be too angry with him for being there, or worse, for not killing him as asked. One thing for sure, he needs to get Zero back to the mansion soon. Zero can’t continue living in these kinds of condition. There was one thing that was greatly puzzling to him. Why was Zero living like this if his parent were rich enough that they could help and the Association paid well enough? That puzzled him to no end and he was determined that he find out.
He took out his cell phone and dialed the number needed. “Kain, I have a task for you. Find out everything you can about ex-hunter Kiryu, Zero. More importantly his and his parents’ financial situations. Report back to me in two days.” he said before hanging up the phone. He couldn’t stay on the phone long enough to get the reply from Kain. He felt someone coming, and that someone was a hunter. Could the Association be stupid enough to send someone here to eliminate Zero?
