Every year, the town that lays between the headquarters of the hunters and the mansion of Ri-Ils Vampire clan holds a great ball shortly before Christmas and everyone is invited, as long as he/she dresses up nicely. It is almost some sort of tradition, that some Vampires hide among the guests and amuse themselves with the fact that no one has just the slightest idea what danger lurks between them - until they bite someone and the hunters smell the blood, that is. To not provoke the hunters, since Ri-Ils clan still is unsure if the huntress that escaped from them will reveal the way to their mansion, the leader of the greatest clan had decided that only he and his sons will be part of the party and that no one will be bitten that night - tho they might at least chose their next victim there.

When Gary informs Green about that via a secret letter, she goes to Firey and begs her to give Siberu another chance. Firey herself, is still insecure what to do - although she had revealed already that she can lead no one to Ri-Ils mansion, since she can’t remember the way, do to the fact that she did not pay much attention when she run away like someone would chase after her, plus it  was dark - since she still thinks getting rid of Siberu and Gary would be better for all of them, but she just can’t bring herself to tell anyone or do anything herself, because of her own feelings for Siberu and of course for her best friend Green, who said time and time again how much she loves the brothers and especially Gary.

Reculantly Firey gives in and agrees to meet with Siberu at the ball and allow him to prove her wrong about the fact that she thinks that he is a monster. But it is still weird for her to stand infront of him after what happened between them. Even more, when he asked her for a dance, after Green and Gary long went to the dancefloor, looking absolutely happy in each others arms. Firey refused at first, but Sibersu argument that they would fit in more into the scenery if they would dance was good, so in the end, she agreed and they started to dance too. Siberu was not exactly apologizing for what he did to her, but he was at least trying to explain things to her. Firey honestly did not understand everything, especially since Siberu had a hard time explaining things without giving away to much about himself, his feelings or the clan, but what she got was, that Siberu only wanted to protect Green, which is the same thing Firey wants. But she is still not sure that it is good if a Vampire is loving and looking out for the Hunter-Princess. Siberu tells her, that she should know, that he and his brother never kill the humans they drink from, they only make sure they forget about the encounter and don’t harm them any further. He tries to explain that Vampire drinking from Humans to survive, is not different from Humans and Hunters killing animals to feet from their meet. And it is not like Vampires could live from animal-blood or anything like that, they need human blood to survive. Tho half-breeds like Siberu and Gary do not need as much and as often blood as a full-breed like Ri-Il does and Siberu explains that this is one of the many reasons why it had taken Firey so long to figure out who they are, because Vampires who had just drunken blood smell like human blood and a certain kind of hormon that only vampires produce and only hunters can smell and that is how Hunters find their next victim. But Siberu and Gary have been meeting with Green countless times already before Firey found out and neither she, nor any other Hunter had realized that they were Vampires, because they never went to Green until 24 hours after they last had fed on a human. Siberu also tells Firey that he and Gary are half humans and that being with Green - who sometimes just wants to be a normal girl and not a hunter-princess - feels like they were just normal humans. All of them. Just meeting, having fun, fooling around, having natural normal human feelings for each other. Doing stuff they usually can not do, because Hunters and Vampires are raised to be what they are and act like what they are from the moment they are born. Of course Firey too knows the feeling, although she was raised from Humans for most of her life before the hunters found her and realized, that she has been the descendant of one of the few powerful hunters with the most “Angelblood” in his vains, who vanished some time ago - to live a normal life, with a normal family as it had turned out then.
