Vampire Knight The Noir Trap: I have finally slayed the beast!!!!!

It's been a month, hasn't it? I know you guys are probably all:



Heh heh, Uhm, well, about that... You see, uhm... well...

*pause*

Okay, so I don't really have a legitimate excuse.

It's sort of like this.

When it's something exciting, I'm like a six year old waiting for Christmas. I can ignore hunger and thirst, I can forego sleep (which as you guys know, I have), because I can't wait to find out what happens and share those findings with you guys. So with Chapter 1, I was working like a deranged battery-powered bunny. But after the exhilaration of chapter one wore off, I really couldn't be bothered with chapters 2 & 3 because well, I'm not that interested in them (you guys know I'm only obsessed with VK for one reason). When you don't actually enjoy what you are doing, I realized just how draining and exhausting translating actually is. There were moments where I  wanted to pull out my hair because it was so frustrating and slow-going. So back in May, I had a crack at chapter 3, then gave up and it's been languishing in my hard drive ever since.

But I started again this month, on the 9th, so I still managed to get these out to you guys pretty quickly XD

Some important notes before you read it:

- I put everything together so that it reads like a book. So for those of you who have already read chapter one, there's a table of contents for you to just scroll down to the next chapter etc.

- I knew there were some typos in chapter one so after I was done translating, I went back and read through the whole thing. I spotted some typos and corrected them, but there are bound to be others I didn't spot. So... :/ sorry

- With the honorifics (which got lost in the chinese translation), I went by what was in the anime (cause I think that would be accurate)
e.g. the vampires know each other very well, which is why it's Akatsuki in chapter one but Kain-kun in chapter 3. It's also why Akatsuki says "ruka" but the class president says "ruka-san" etc. etc.
 
Uhm... other than that, I think that's it, really. One quick thing, though, please support the series when the official translations come out! 

So here is the link. (And for those who have trouble with MU, here's the alternate link)
 
Enjoy!
 
Witless Fool (*ducks under the table in case people start throwing things at me for such a long post*)
 
P.S. A shoutout to [info]caffeyne who I know would probably celebrate by making a colouring XD If you are going to use the pic in chapter 3, could you please do me a favour and erase the other three characters? I want one with just Akatsuki and Ruka! <3 <3 <3 <3
