Where does the site say there are seven seraphs? I will clarify it. There are seven -in the Bible- and quite probably in this series, but I don't believe that's been confirmed yet. It could just be that everyone is following a prophecy of seven of these things, and they just know seven will be completed or something.

Mika ran into seraphs before, and they were at least partially-awakened. Their compatability seems to be pretty important.

Mika would still be highly useful in getting Yu to join her side. Since Shinoa was able to reverse Yu's transformation with a hug, there's also a good chance that human connections can help restrain the seraph side. With that in mind, Mika might be able to stop Yu's awakened stuff with the power of friendship and hugs and family. Lacus suggested Krul turned Mika because he knew Yu back when he realized the two knew each other.

Of course, even if it were impossible to change a vampire into a seraph at the time, this doesn't mean she couldn't find a way to do it in the future. If he were dead, then there would be no more chance of that left.

There is also the whole mystery of the Michaela thing. I love Kagami's withholding of information, but I hate it, too. That may have been involved somehow, too.

When Krul was about to turn Yu into a vampire, I think his being a seraph was just as important as his being Mika's best friend. She really adores Mika after all. His situation was death or vampirism, so the options were limited.
