Chapter 18 Plan.

"Yuki just tell me what you need," Zero says. "I need to fake my own death," Yuki responds. "What?" Zero comments. "The only way he will let me go is if he thinks I'm dead. Otherwise, I will never be free of him." Yuki admits. "Don't you think this is a little drastic?" Zero replies. "Yes, but for what I am going to tell you next. I have no choice." Yuki comments. "Ok, What?" Zero answers. "I'm Pregnant Zero," Yuki says softly. "Yuki? Really? That's wonderful. We can have a family." Zero says.

 Yuki stays silent for a few minutes. Her heart in her hands from the words he just spoke to her.

"What's wrong? Why are you so quiet? It's mine right?" Zero asks. "I don't know. When I came home, he raped me. So I am not sure who's it is. I just know that if it's yours. He will not let me keep it. He will hurt it. Take it away from me. I can't let that happen. If it's his, I will be stuck here forever." Yuki admits. "He did what? How could he do that to you? I will kill that bastard!" Zero shouts. "Please, I need you to stay calm. I need you not to come here for this to work. We have to stay in the right state of mind for this."Yuki states.

"What do you need me to do?" Zero hisses. "First I need you to think. If it winds up not to be yours, will you be ok with it? Can you handle it?" Yuki says. "If it means I have you then yes." Zero replies. "Than I need you to get me some ashes of the level E's you kill. It needs to be the same build as me. So it looks real. I will have Hanabusa get it from you. I need you to stay calm and do everything regularly. I will come to you when I can." Yuki says. "Are you sure you can trust Hanabusa?" Zero asks. "Yes, he will be on our side. I will see you in the next few days. I have something to leave with you."Yuki says. "How will you do this?" Zero asks. "I have been practicing lately. I have my own familiar. I will fly to you. Keep your window open." Yuki remarks. "Will do. Are you ok? Did he hurt you?"Zero asks. Just thinking about Kaname raping her. Burns him. "I will be fine. I love you Zero." Yuki states. "I love you too."Zero answers.

In the next day or so, Yuki flys out the window to Zeros apartment going in through his window. Waiting for him to come home from work. While Yuki was spending so much time in her room. She learned how to work with her familiar. Knowing she would need it to be free. She sits on Zero's brown sofa while waiting for him. She looks around at his apartment. It's nice and small. With a kitchen, living room, bathroom, and one bedroom. There wasn't much furniture but it was nice.

As she sits there looking around. She hears the door. Zero already knowing she is in there. He sensed her from when he walked in the door downstairs.

 "Yuki are you here?" Zero ask walking in. "Yes."She replies. Smiling widely. "I would run to you, but I can't get your scent on me. Please." Yuki says with panic in her voice. "Ok. What did you need to give me?" Zero asks. 

Yuki hands over a briefcase. "Here. We will need this to get away. " Yuki says opening it up to reveal a ton of cash.

 "Where did you get this?" Zero asks. "He never denied me anything. He always gave me money to buy things. Mostly online or to give to the maids to by. I just didn't spend it all. I would put it away. Saving it. So when I would need it I would have it. When I do this, You have to act like my death is a surprise to you. Like you would if it was real. You need to go to work and act like everything is fine. So there is nothing suspicious. I will fly to your apartment after I do what I need to. We will have to stay here for a month or two. Then you need to ask the association for a transfer. They have many different states we can go to. I think we should go to the US. That way we are far away from Kaname." Yuki says. "Wow, you sure did think this through didn't you?" Zero states."Yes, I just need you to make sure you're ok with all this. You will be leaving everything here." Yuki states. "I have nothing here. Without you. I have nothing at all. What about you though? What about your child?" Zero asks.

 Wanting so badly to hold her close. Just knowing he can't.

"There is no way I can take her with us. She will be safe with Kaname. She is the princess. In order for me to have any life, I have to leave, I can't stay there. All I think about is you. He thought he would break me, but he didn't. My love for you is still as strong as it always was. "What did he do to you?"Zero huffs. "It doesn't matter, I have to head back. I will tell Hanabusa to come to you to get the ashes. I love you Zero." Yuki responds. "I love you too. Are you sure this is going to work?" Zero asks. "It should. We will make it work." Yuki replies. Sending Zero an air kiss. Turning into her butterfly and flying out the window.

Zero not sure about anything he just heard. Would Yuki really be able to go through with this? Leaving her child. She was the reason she went back in the first place. Zero just felt like he shouldn't have listened to her. Never letting her return to the Mansion or Kaname. It was too late now. He had no choice but to help. The thought of them having a family together delighted him. He just wondered if it was his. If it turned out to be Kaname's, Yuki had a point. Would he be able to take it? Act as if it was his? Seeing him every day? Knowing this child was created out of rape? Not only that, How would Yuki deal with this? There was a lot to take on. Going to the US to live? That would be a change. This was going to take some time to get used to, but if it meant she wouldn't be with Kaname anymore. He would do it.
