 Takuma stayed silent as we went into town. I kept glancing at him, unsure what to say before he grabbed my arm tightly and quickly pulled me into an alleyway, 

"Takuma what the hell?" 

I said angrily, narrowing my eyes at him as he turned to face me. He looked at me with intense and worried eyes and my gaze softened. He spoke to me in a hushed tone,

"Y/N listen to me, you can not trust any of the guys in the Moon Dorm, okay? Your brother has compelled all of them, they're just his puppets now." 

He said as gravely, causing me to tilt my head in confusion,

"What? How did he do it?"  

I asked skeptically as Takuma explained,  

"The night before you got here, there was a masquerade ball and all of the Moon Dorm students were invited. It was supposedly held by a member if the senate in celebration of the Night Class's achievements, but I found out it was your brother. The blood and food were spiked with his blood so that his voice would be in Lord Kaname's head along with all the others. I did some research on compulsion and found out the only way to save them is to kill the blood donor , namely Alek." 

His explanation made sense and I nodded in understanding before responding, 

"Okay, but I have one question. Why weren't you affected? You were at the ball as well, weren't you?" 

He nodded, 

"Yes I was, but since my grandfather is on the senate he would've been present. When asked why he wasn't present, Alek said he had business elsewhere but that's a lie. He didn't even know about the ball!" 

Takuma said and I nodded, 

"Okay I believe you. I thought the guys seemed off. How is he controlling them, though?" 

I asked curiously,

"They hear his voice in their heads. Their feelings towards you, I believe, are genuine but their actions may not be; they may hear his voice in their heads and think it's their own. I mean even you must agree that Lord Kaname would never put you in harms way, yet he seemed ready to let you go on a suicide mission without ever considering the alternatives." 

"Yeah I did find that strange. I assumed he'd try a little harder to talk me out of it." 

I commented as Takuma looked at me, his face slightly ashen at the thought of his friends being used like this,

"What do you think we should do?"
He asked as I  looked down in thought, until it hit me. I glanced back up at him, 

"We need to speak to Cross and Yagari immediately. Possibly Zero, too. If anyone can help it's them. We can't let the Night Class know what's going on, who knows what they might do." 

I said definitively as Takuma nodded in agreement,  

"I completely agree. I just hope nothing happens to you." 

He said as he hugged me tightly, pouring all his fears and anxieties into the embrace. I wrapped my arms around him in return, trying to reassure him that his friends would be alright and that we would put Alek down. I spoke to him softly, feeling his grip on me tighten slightly as my breath hit his neck,
