Chapter 1
As I was running through the thick forest I saw men starting to surround me. They were bad men, they were attacking me from every direction. I tryed to keep them away by attacking them bach but they were too strong and there were too many of them. Then all of a sudden there was a surge of pain in my sholder and my vision went black. When I woke up I was on the ground, though I still could not see. After a moment of comfusing blackness I started to hear a voice.The voice was soft like velvet but ferm, as if the voice was afraid. A few minnutes later I was able to see: there was a dark haired man at my side whispering "Please be okay". I tryed to move but to my suprise I was in too much pain soo I groaned in agoney of pain. He flenched at my sound. All of a sudden I found my self in the strange man's arms. My arms pressed at his chest, he is warm. Then I noticed there was blood every where, my instant reaction was to push the man away and stare with fear and shock. "What is wrong" he asked in a concerned velvet voice, holding my sholders. "Th-the.. Blood..... What happened" I asked with my right hand at the bottom of my chest. "Don't worry about the blood. All that matters is that you are safe" he then picked me up as if i weighed ten pounds.Then it went black again......
I woke up in a strange place layed upon a soft bed across the room is a lit fireplace.In a corner he sat in a small wooden chair. It apeared as if he was asleep. Then some thing crashed through the window at my left. The man lept off his chair and killed it before it was all the way through the window and before i saw it.. He walked dwards me and i backed away curious to meet his eyes.He then looked at me, his eyes cautious but warm. "Are you okay" he asked, his voice gentle like velvet. "I- I'm fine. Thank you..." I answered looking at the bed. Just then i realized that I was in diffrent clothes, my eyes widened."Whats wrong" he asked, this time he was alert. "I'm fine.. It's nothing.."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes. Oh no my parents must be worried!"
"Do you want me to take you home" he asked.
"Well umm....." He swept me off my feet before I could answer. We were out the window before i could say no. Moments later i was in my own room. The next morning I went down stairs to se boxes and furnicher, my two sisters and my mother loading them out of the house. "What is going on" I asked after a moment of watching them. "Morning Miyu" my younger sister, Siya said. "Oh, mom forgot to tell you we are moving when before you left for camp, didn't she?"
"Where are we moving to" I asked
"To aunt Manoming's house down in..... Well you know, where all those new kids like Kaia and me."
"Ooh, cool I know where that is-" realizing what happened last night, the attacking men and the boy who saved me. "Miyu?" my mom caught me within my thoughts. "Go up stairs and get dressed. We have a lot of work this morning." she ordered me.
"Okay" I answered and went back up stairs.
A we started unloading the truck some one covered my eyes. I heard my aunt's playful voice "You can take her, we will finish unloading" then another some how fimiliar male voice answer "I'll have her back by twilight" in that instand i was off my feet in warm arms, my eyes still covored. Once he was sure he was out of sight of my family, he put me down on my feet and uncovered my eyes. I knew I recognised his voice it was the one who saved me last night. "You-"
"I know what you are about to say and I know" he said before I could finish. "What is your name any ways" I asked conversationaly, hearing my younger sister listening in through the bushed at the corner. "My name is Amara Kuhnxaki" he answered politely. I blushed as he said his name. "And how old are you" I was curious about so many things but I only questioned the basics. "I am fifteen" he was cautious of his answer. I tilted my head to one side. "Oh I see..." That is when his friends showed up and closed the subject. "Hey, Amara. Is that your girlfriend?" the broad male on the far left side asked. Another one choked on their own laughter.I blushed at that thought, emberased. "C'mon guys, I thought I told you already...." he was emberased too. "Where were you going to take me" I asked to change the subject. "Oh right. Sorry I-".
A tree crashed between us and the others making amara pull me back, too bad for me being a klutz. He had me in an iorn grip in half a second. My eyes widened in fear as the tree hit the ground- almost me- and the speed of his reaction. Then there was a band of people with fangs showing, pail enough to be dead and they were all staring at me as if they were hungry. All I wanted to do at that moment was scream but I know that I would die at that moment if I did. Amara jumped with me still in his arms and then we were in a tree. The others were crouching as if they were going to attack or defend agenst those pail ones.
He held my sholders forcing me to face him. "Stay here and be quiet" it sounded more like a warning than any thing else. Then he was gone. I held my breath for a long moment, forgetting how to exhale. A few long minnutes later one of the attackers was in front of me. I tryed to scream but it took my face- covering my mouth- in its hand. Then every thing went black. I woke up in the middle of the street with a voice through the blackness. "Miyu, please wake up" the voice said. It sounded frantic as if the owner of the gentle voice was scared of or for some thing. I was starting to be able to see just then. In my sight I could make out a figure with black hair.
As I looked around I could see blood. Then some thing cold touched my face. I looked up to see Amara looking down at me, his hair as black as onyx though his eyes are blue as the sea.. Just then I realized what had happened but I could not remember what happened after that creature attacked me in the tree. Amara stared at me with caution as I got up. After that he rose as well but more gracefully. "What happened" I wondered aloud. "You don't remember?" he asked me as he helped me up the rest of the way."I really don't" I answered as I stumbled and he caught me in his arms.I pulled away emedietly, blushind as I looked away from him and twards the blood and bodies. "It apeared as if you blacked out when that vampire attacked you...." he trailed off. My younger sister ran up to us at that moment. I looked down at her curious. "Hey, Siya. Whats up?" I asked casuelly."Werent you just-" her eyes were wide and she looked as if she was scared of, or rather for some thing. "I think you were imagening things again" I told her smiling.Just then my aunt called us over to the house to help her finish unpacking. We got mostly the heavy items like furnicher.
I Woke up the next morning with the sun shining in my eyes. I went down stairs, when I looked around all I could see is blood, then I saw the bodies of my family. I was about to scream when a hand covered my mouth. "It will be okay, I promice" Amara's voice sent tears down my cheeks. "It will be okay..." he let go of my mouth and huged me to comfort me. "Miyu... Will you live with me for the time being" he asked in a worried but gentle tone. I could not answer so I simply nodded.
Chapter 2
After school a few weeks later, I was walking out of the building when Amara tackled me in to the snow. He did not look like his normal self, he looked hungry. Just then he took me in his arms and bit my neck. I was soo scared that I pushes away and ran off, ripping his fangs out of my neck.
I ran as fast and far as I could, pretty soon I was out of town. I found my self surrounded by trees. As nightfall grew, I soon after grew tired, my pace slowed and eventuelly stoped. Sitting on the ground, leaning agenst a large tree I saw a hutch. Not verry modern, but it was cute in a way.
As I walked twards the hutch I saw a guy standing near a river.I walked up to him curiously, but cautiously. He looked at me with his dark lonely eyes, his short white hair wrestling in the wind."What are you doing all the way out here, kid" he asked in a gruff voice.
"I.. Erm..."
"You are Amara's lover arent you?"
"I am not his lover" I abruptly shouted loud enough to scare birds out of the trees surrounding.
"You are Miyu, am I not correct?"
"Yes, you are correct, but how do you know who I am" I asked.
Just then a creature unlike I've ever seen apeared at the end of the dock. It was creepy, almost spirituel. I flenchedd at the sight of it. I don't exactly know how but I some how ended up waking up in a bed."Erm-Mm.."
"Oh. I was begining to think you weren't going to wake up" I heard a gruff voice chuckle. I looked over to see the white-haired guy sitting in a wooden chair a few feet from the bed."Verry funny..." I said sitting up quickly, much too quickly, it made me dizzy. I held my head. "You really must not sit up soo fast." he touched my shoulder much faster than any normal person I have ever seen-he went from the chair which was a few feet away to me-.
All of a sudden some thing sturred in to the window to the left of the bed across the large room. The white-haired one took out a knife imedietly and went after it. A flash of lightning made it possible to see for a moment, which made me able to see what-or wether who- it was.It was Amara. Then all of the growling of the two stoped, and the room went quiet for a long minnute.Then Amara was at my side "I'm soo sorry.. I promice I will never do that to you again. They drove me out of town I-" I stoped him by touching his cold lips with my finger-tip. "It will be okay, I promice... I forgive you." I soothed him, wraping my arms around his neck. The white-haired one walked up to the bed"They are comming"
Amaa's eyes flew open, and he streightened him self, leaving my arms limp in the bed."How soon?" He asked. "I'm not sure but they are close enough to hear our growling"
"God damn it!"
"What's going on" I asked, half scared. "Don't worry right now Miyu. At the moment, we have to get you out of here" His voice was ferm rather than softHe lifted me off of the bed and on to his back and jumped out of the window in to the dark night with the white haired man close behind. They ran for hours and eventuelly I fell asleep. The sun came up probibly hours after I fell asleep, which woke me up and they were still running.The forest was thicker than I remember "Oh you are awake" Amara looked behind himself, at me as I looked up at him and yawned. "s**t they are faster than I thought, they are here" the white haired man growled. "Are you serious" Amara asked. Then some thing sharp went through my back, right below my left shoulderblade. "Ow that is not comfertable......" I said, it did not hurt as much as I'd thought it would."Miyu, are you okay" the white haired man asked. "I'm fine" I answered.
After a few moments there was unbearable pain, where the bullet hit me. "Eno, go alert the others that we are comming, I'll hold these guys off" Amara ordered him as he set me down at the base of a tree. I was bearly cauncious by then, but some thing happened at that moment. There was an unbelieveable surge of power that went through my entire body. The pain was gone and before I knew it, I was going after those men like a bat out of hell. A few minnutes after I finished them off I heard a female voice "Leon, get her out of here before she destroys the forest" she said. I looked at her ordering Amara very curious about her calling him by a different name. "Miyu, are you okay with this state that you are in" Amara asked.
"She called you Leon....." I tilted my head as I looked at him, my crouched defensive position locked in place. "Yes, that is my name- My first name. Amara ia my second name, humans know my first name as a murderous vampire. That is why I fled the city once you ran off, but you were much faster than I expected to get to Eno's cabbin before I did" he explained to me what made sence in my own not-so-demestic mind. Leon held his hand out to me as if he thought I was going to attack. My position broke and I fell, nearly uncauncious. "You need blood don't you" he smiled at my side gently holding me up with both arms around my waist. Just then I realized than my K-9 teeth were longer and sharper than normal. "Am I a-" He had his wrist slit open and in my mouth before I could finish. All I could do then was drink untill I was asleep.
I woke up in the middle of the night in what seemed like an open-faced treehouse, with Leon at the far corner posting as a guard, or at least it seemed like that. My bright red hair was behind me, yet it feld longer than it was before. It was croped short, but now it seemed long. I sat up to get a view of my now long hair-it was lower than my waist no boubt. Then he noticed that I was awake, he went over to me in a flash that I could some how see, it was slightly faster than human speed. He came with a blanked knowing that I was cold and wraped it around me. "What am I" I asked in a gentle suprano voice that suprised me."You are a half blood" he answered. It fell silent for a few seconds then he contenued. "You are half vampire and half...." he trailed off. "Half what" I was curious and anxious to know. "I'm not quite sure, I've never come across a half blood before. They are extremely rare, you could say" he answered. He sounded very tired so I let the silence rise until I fell asleep again. He did as well soon after.
Chapter 3
I woke up the next morning with Leon brhind me, holding me by the waistlind in a soft iron grip. Beside the fortress, near a lake there was a large bonfire. All I could think about at the time was how close he was to me, his warmth seeping through my clothes. He soon woke up and was alert of what I saw of a man near the thicket of the forest. He stood up inedietly and the others near the fire started to approach the man. He had short dark brown hair and a large black trench coat. I looked up t Leon, curious if I should stand up to take guard. Some how he told me to lie down, though he did not speak aloud. He told me through my own thoughts. I obeyed him and layed down to the surface.
He leaped off the tree and was instantly out of sight.
I heard him greet the guy in a formal vampiric matter. The girl from last night apeared above me. Leon told me by thought that her name was Skye, and that she was going to take me some where safe. She grabed my hand and ran with me trailing behind her. We ended up near a large city, but there were guards at a gate that surrounded it. "Leon wanted us to go shopping for those of us who need food" she informed me as we approached the gate. "How will we be able to-" I was cut off by one of the guards:"Hey, you two girls. Do you have a pass to get into this teretory?" Skye took out a card and handed it to him, and he smiled taking it "She needs one too."
"I think he wants to see the card in your wallet, Miyu" Skye told me. I took a black leather wallet out of my pocket and looked at it, then at Skye curiously. She just winked at me. I took a card out that looked like a plastic ticket and gave it to him. He let us in, sliding our cards through a machine, then giving them back to us. We went through the gate. All I could was stores, houses, malls and other city stuff for miles. It seemed like for ever since I last saw the city, although it was really only a couple of days ago.It seemed like yesterday that my mother and the rest of them were killed, though..
People soon started to stare. "Why are-" She covered my mouth and whispered "They know that we are outsiders, that we don't belong here.." Hours passed and we had a lot of food and groceries. Soon there became a large blanket of shadows shrouding at least ten blocks if the city. Soon after I heard a voice and froze."My daughter, it's good to finally see you again" it was the voice of a semi-older man's voice, then there was laughter.It was as if he was planning some thing.. Was it him who had killed my mother? Was that the same man who left her nine years ago?
I suddenly lifted my mind from my thoughts and was on te ground with fire and bodies every where. I sat up slowly, noticed a gouging pain in my head. I winced at the pain, then I groaned as loud as a normal human. Then I noticed that Leon was sitting over me, smiling. "Are you okay" he asked in his usual gentle tone. "I'm fine" I answered trying to get up, but then some thing dragged me from my right arm, away from them, out of the city and through the forest. Soon after hitting trees, shrubs and rocks, I passed out.
Leon Amara Kuhnxaki
As I saw her wake up, she looked as peaceful as ever through all the blood that she was covered in. I could feel the pain in her head from her skull cracking. She soon sat up, all I could do was look at her and smile. Then I found what I was looking for, through the sorrow and pain that I had for her. "Are you okay" I asked her. "I'm fine" she said, it looked as if she was struggling. Then there was a powerful force that riped my heart out and she was being dragged away by it. I ran after her as far and as long as I could, but I soon fell from exaustion. I fell to my knees, and punched the ground as hard as I could.
We were in our hideout. Days, weeks and even months had passed since she was taken from me. All I could do was think and to plan on how I would get her back from her father. She is only fourteen and needs to be eighteen for him to kill her. I knew exactly where he was and mapped out the entire fortress. "Guys, I know how to get her back. I'll need Skye, Tashinu, Eno, Manyi, Nagumeth, Lin and Ryoske. We leave tonight.
Once we got ther, it was heavily guarded. Men and soldiers every where. We already knew that this would happen, since it is the eve of her fifteenth birthday. I signaled them to go in as I explained at the base. They all fanned out, each one covering an erea of the large cement structure. We finnaly got in after a few hours. We weere in the basement, they were mearly a large labrynth of tunnels, one of them leading to the holding cell with her in it.We seperated and I went alone. The others went in groups of two. After a few miles of endless tunnels, I found it. The gate that leads to her, she was hidden behind a brick slab. She was out of sight, I couldn't even smell her. I could just sence her through my heart. The guards in the other corridor sensed me. They went after me. "Damnit" I mumbled loud enough for even a half blood to hear.
The guards were on me like wild dogs on a peace of meat. Soon enough we busted through the wall of her cell, brawling. She looked malnurished, as if she had no human food since I last saw her. She also looked frightened for her life, though I could not blame her. One of the guards were above me, aiming a gun at my chest. I took his loert arm and threw him to the wall at the end of the chamber. Another guard went after me from behind, I lept up above him and slit his throught. Blood went every where, even on Miyu. There was no more... I figured there would be more than just a couple of amiture policemen to guare the princess of which her father wants to kill.
I went up to miyu and kneeled down becide her "Are you okay?" I asked her.
"Yes, I'm fine" she replied, though I knew that she was not.
"Get on my back" I turned around, still kneeling on one knee. She hesitated, but then was on my back, her arms locked around my neck.
Chapter 4
Miyu Kyukie
I looked up from my own dwelling of solitude, when I heard a crash. I saw Leon on the ground, strugling with guards on top of him. I was scared. I was frozen in place, my energy as low as possible. He soon defeated them, but I was still frozen. He was next to me in an instant. "Are you okay?" he asked. "I'm fine" I answered, although I was in crucial pain. He made me get on his back through a blur and we were back at the fortress. Leon was giving orders to move out. All I know was that I needed blood and that I was in his arms.
He set me down, his arms around me. I wanted to bite him, but he was taller than I am. He lowered him self and said "Go ahead, you need to. You are weak from your father keeping you locked up. From not being able to have any" I hesitated, but my natural vampire instincts took over and my fangs were in his throught before I could think. I drank for several minnutes untill I realized that I was stronger. I stoped, afraid to hurt him more than necessary. I looked up at him as he rose to full height, he was still as strong as ever. "Thank you, Leon" I nearly mumbled. "We are going to have to seperate the clan into different cities and maybe even countries if we have to. We have to stay as far away from your father as possible."
We found a large city on the other side of the country, Leon, Tashinu, Manyi, Skye, Nagumeth, Eno, Takumi, Ryoske, and I Spread out to different parts of that city, but will go to the same school district. Leon, Skye and I are to live in the same house. He has enough money to pay for it. We got furnicher and extra stuff that we might not need. A few days later, we got settled in and in school. My first class is Math. I walk into class early and no one is there yet exept for the teacher, Mr. Gogh'n. Hw is writing the morning exorsize on the board, then he turns around to greet me. "Oh hello, are you new here?"
"Yes I am new, and I was told that this was my first class"
"Oh I see... Take a seat and I'll introduce you to the class once the bell rings"
I sit at a window seat on the far right of the room, near the back of the room. A few minnutes later the room was full. The bell rang just moments after that. He starts with a class welcoming and tells me to come to the front, so I do. "This young lady is new to our school." He introduces me. "Tell the class about your self" He tells me "I'm Miyu and umm........" My voice travels off. "Miyu, you are supposed to say your full name and some thing about your self, be a proud person" Mr. Gogh'n says "I'm Miyu Aiko Kyukie and I lost my family.." I say softly, grabbing the ends of my sleves. "You may take a seat now, Miss Kyukie.." Mr. Gogh'n says in disapointment. I take a seat as he begins the lesson. A few long hours later, the bell rings for lunch. I start to pack up my stuff in my bag as a guy walks up to me. He sits in the chair in front of me"Hi" I don't reply, I just get up and start to walk off, but he grabs my arm. "Hey that hurts" I pull away. "It's rude to walk away when some one is talking to you" he still has my arm."Let go" I shout, just as Leon walks in the room. He looks pissed as he walks twards us and grabs his arm "What the hell are you doing" He asks staring at him. "I uh..." he backs up tripping over air. Leon turns his attention to me and his expression soft "Are you okay, Miyu" he asks "I'm fine, he didn't hurt me" Leon looks at the handprint grip mark on my arm "You lie..."
He takes my hand and leads me to the cafateria where there are a lot of people and probably about forty percent of them are looking at us. "Go get your self some food, you need it" He hands me a ten dollar bill. and walks off to a table where our friends are. I walk to the lunch line and grab a few things that look good and a skinny blond lady rang me up for the food I got, I gave her the ten and she gave me my change. I go to sit next to them and start to eat silently. Skye and Ryoske were having a 'conversation' and every one else was just eating, as I was. All of a sudden every one heard a crashing sound, outside. Leon stood up and guarded me just after a shard of glass hits me from the window shatters. There was an SUV half way through the wall-window of the cafateria. I almost caughed up blood from the glass in my side.
Leon looks at me with pain in his eyes "Are you okay, Miyu" he asks. "I'm fine, it's not verry deep" I stand up dumping my trey in a near by garbage can. I started walking back to the half trashed table and I collapsed, in more pain than I have ever been in. I was caughing up blood and it started to get dark. Soon enough I saw floating lights rising up into the darkness. I found my self waking up in the nurs's office covered in bandages. Some one walks in the room and I jump in surprise of the sound. It's a nurse, she is dressed casual as if her shift was over long ago. "Hello, Miyu, your boyfriend is in the hallway, waiting for you" she winks as she shuts down her computer. I get up and slip my shoes on, just as Leon comes in. "Are you okay, Miyu" he asks, verry concerned. "I'm fine" I say, realizing the pain is gone. As we are walking out, the nurse tosses Leon a duffel bag and winks at him. "I'll tell you later" he tells me, we are walkng down the hallway twards the exit.
Once we get home we both drop our bodies into the couch. Leon turns on the TV on a comedy channel and heads to the kitchen, just as my stomach growls. A couple minnutes later he comes back in the room with a plate of food. "Oh, thank you" I start eating, realizing how hungry I am. The food is gone and he takes my plate back into the kitchen. I yawn. Leon is back in the living room and says "C'mon, lets go to bed. It's almost midnight." He picks me up and I basicly fall asleep in his arms, on our way to my room.
I wake up, almost jumping out of bed, there is a lightning storm outside. I look over my bedside at my clock It's three fifteen in the morning. I see a shadow in the doorway. Once I scream Leon runs to the doorway, turning the light on. The figure is gone. "Where'd he... There was a man in the doorway a minnute ago... I swear I saw some one" I burry my face in my arms, my eyes wide. "Just as long as you are safe" leon is at my side, comforting me. "Do you want to sleep in my room, just to be safe? It's the weekend, so we don't have to wake up early." I get up, half naked. I take his hand, him leading me into his room. I lay in his bed, under his warm blankets, him next to me with his arms protectively around my waist.
I woke up the next morning not knowing what happened the night before and when I opened my eyes I saw him staring at him, his gentle eyes peering down at me. I wanted to scream in surprise, but all I could do is blush crimson red. He just smiles at me. "Good morning, Miyu" he says and kisses my forhead. I look down realizing what I'm wearing and I covered my self with the sheets, shuting my eyes tightly. "Don't worry I've seen enough of you for it not to bother" he smiles and gets up, grabbing a white button-up.
I get up and head to my room to get dressed as Leon heads to his balcony. I head downstairs afterwards to make breakfast. It's made and I'm setting the table as Leon gets down stairs, to the dining room. "Smells good" he kisses my neck. "Thanks" I say as we sit down and start eating. Once we finish eating, we head out to see the city. We were in a large shopping district, with a lot of people, stores and restraunts. Miyu started wandering aimlessly around the large district, soon enough she lost sight of Leon and got lost. Se started wandering more, trying to figure out where she was when she ended up in an alley. There was a raggedy old man behind her. She backed into the wall at the end. He looked like a begger, but she could see it in his eyes that he was under his spell. Soon enough an tall girl with long black hair came down between her and the old begger. Miyu knew who the girl was instantly, it was her older sister whom she thought died. It was Kaia.
The begger soon turned into a freakish demon. Miyu went to Kaia's side and was ready to fight. She knew how to kill it, but she didn't know how to access her powers as well as her older sister. She ran twards it, unshiething her katanas."Miyu, don't-" Kaia yelled after her, but it was too late. It was a trap that Miyu fell for. The demon held her by the throat as she struggled to breathe. Kaia let go of her shadow, freezing her own body in place. She moved her shadow into the demon's body and stoped it's heart. Miyu droped to the ground unconsious just as Leon came back with a few of their friends, the younger ones were at the near by park. "Damn it. What the hell happened?" He demanded walking twards her limp body. "There was an attack, she was tricked. I'm sorry" Kaia says as he kneels down to pick her up.
Miyu wakes up on a bench, her vision blurry. Her throat was burning. As soon as her vision came to she saw an ice-cream cone from a friendly hand. She took it warily as she sat up. She licked the cold ice-cream a couple of times before smiling up to Leon as he sat next to her. They were next to a playground with childeren every where. It looked as if it were about high noon. "Are you okay" Leon asked, finishing his ice-cream. I looked up at him, smiling "I'm fine-" I said just before noticing her"Kaia" I yelled her name in surprise.
They got home from our long day, Miyu dropped onto the couch in the living room in exaustion. Leon picked her up, taking her to her room as Kaia went to the kitchen.Once he sat her in her bed, Leon went back down stairs and sat on the couch.
