This may seem like rambling, but it has a point, i promise. Correct me if I'm wrong, but when vampires first came around, a few humans tried to protect themselves. Somehow, they managed to kill a vampire, so after they killed it, they ate it. Like, not drinking it's blood, but literally eating it. Ew. ANYWAY, Because they ate it, the blood of the vampire messed with their dna or something like that. They then became strong vampire hunters. If a female huntress got pregnant, or a female got pregnant by a hunter, and she had twins in the womb, the fetuses would take on the vampire instincts and they would fight for the right to be born. Usually, if there was originally twins, only one would be born.

BUT, If both twins were born, as was the case with Ichiru and Zero, then they would only have a PIECE of the vampire hunter instincts and "powers", call them what you will. One would be stronger than the other, because the stronger baby was the only one who was supposed to be born. Somehow Ichiru got out of there alive, so he lived. But he was always weak; the only reason for his existance was because he still had the missing piece that zero needed. Over the years, they grew up together, Zero always protective of Ichiru, even right after Hiou Shizuka had bitten him. He told Ichiru to run away before she got him too, but Hiou convinced Ichiru that she would make him stronger. And she kept her promise...by letting ichiru drink her blood. So, Ichiru and Zero meet up again. Kaname kills Hiou. Ichiru drinks the rest of her blood when he finds her, so Zero can't. The only way for Zero to completely avoid becoming a Level E is to drink his maker's blood, aka the woman who bit him. Well, Ichiru made it so he can't do that. Dang it. Well, soon Zero is put in a dungeon sort of thing for his own protection. Ichiru finds zero, blood all over Ichiru's side, and shoots zero. That makes zero weak. We find out that the reason Ichiru is all bloody is because he tried to kill Rido but Rido slashed open Ichiru's side, and he is bleeding to death. The only way for Zero to get the missing piece is for him to essentially finish off his brother. Ichiru is going to die anyway, so he convinces Zero to drink the rest of his blood. Thus, Zero get the last piece, and since he also drank Yuuki's newly pure blood, Kaname's blood, Hiou Shizuka's blood(through Kaname and Ichiru), and has gotten the last piece of being a vampire hunter from his brother, he is now the strongest vampire hunter ever. Do I make sense?

That is soo right, I've never read a manga so many times before, i always go back to chapter 25 or else 35 and re-read, and it feels so good to understand whats happening while youre reading lol I used to put my hands in my head and "bite" my fingers when i "discovered" those shocking facts from the series lol I'm a bit of emotional over stories like this one.

I don't know about that because Zero got to drink Kaname's blood after Kaname drank Shizuka Hio's blood and gained her powers. Right? And isn't Zero the one who has to defeat Rido cause Kaname can't do it himself? And isn't that the reason that Kaname gave Zero his blood in the first place?

ok so i was wondernig since rido ish shikis father and in some chap didnt it say dat suzuka and rido was engage or something. so doesnt dat mean he cheated on shikis mother? :OO
okie i no tis ish a rly dum question but i was just curious been wondering dat 4 a while :OO

Uhmm I'm slighty confused about Takuma Ichijou... or rather I'm wondering,
did he betray kaname, or is he being forced to? by Ichiou (his grandfather)
And Senri Shiki's okay now right?

And Rido.. in the beginning (as in when he was killing the kuran parents) was he a pureblood?

[seeliespright]

Rido has always been a pure-blood because that's how you're born. It's not something you can acquire later.

Ostensibly, it seems that Takuma has betrayed Kaname and is following his grandfather, but I don't think he really did. His words, "I can't look for you any more" suggested to me that either he has decided to distance himself from Kaname altogether or he is stepping back and playing the part of the obedient grandson until he has the opportunity to fight against Rido (the latter seeming more likely).

I think Takuma was largely shackled by his concern for Shiki. But now that Rido has left Shiki's body and Shiki will be all right, Takuma will take part in the battle against Rido.

As you can see, I'm devoted to the nobility of my Takuma. ^_^;
