I live in a town where people aren't really worried about murderers and rapists. The number one thing on their mind are vampires. It was the governments bright idea to wager an amisty act for ll supernatrual beings. They where to be treated as humans if they commited a crime. How was a vampire to feed then? Or a werewold to run? Vamipres look just like you and I do. No glowing eyes, no pointy teeth, your next door nieghbour or your favorite teacher could be super natural. You just never know. I'm asumming that when they attack you, you know about them then. Or when they think your sepcial enough to be changed into their coven. Once the vampire trancfers this "Gift" To you, you are in a state between life and death. You are a fledgling. From stories that I had heard you have to be close to death, and then drink from the vampire who "turned" you.
"Did you hear about Abby?" a girl asked, when i squeezed past them.
"No," The other answered, gosip ready to be heard.
"She just vanished."
"Vampire, sure thing."
"what freaks."
As far as everyone is concerned, I'm a secret vampire. Although everyone knows, that if you are so called chosen, the adult vampire, takes you off to fledgling school, and I'm still here. Fledgling school is just ike human school, but they feel a little safer among their own. Everyday people pass me and start to whisper. Sometimes it gets on my nerves, so I hiss, which really doesn't help my case any. I guess everyone thinks I'm a vampire, cause I dress in black and white. sometimes I like being thought of as a vampire cause, then people leave me alone. I met my parents in the parking lot for our anual family outting. We start t off with dinner and then usually go bowling or something equaly as lame. We headed over to the restaruant and waited in the little loby. I tapped my Mom's arm and we leaned into each other.
"I'm going to run to the car for my jacket. Can I had the keys?"
"Just be careful okay? WHo know's what is learking in the shadows around here." She handed me the keys and I took them.
"Yeah, Yeah." I waved a hand at her.
I was the most ordinary person ever. No one would ever change me. I pushed open the door and stepped out into the night. I headed over to the car and beeped it open. I grabbed my jacket and set the keys on the chair to pull it on. I zipped it up and shut the door. I looked down and saw the keys on the chair, and shighed. At least I didn't lock it. AS I went to open the door someone whispered in hushed tones.
"Anyone there?" I paused for a few seconds.
"Deven." It was just a hiss, but it was loud enough for me to make out.
"Huh?" I truned in a cricle like a dumb ass serching for the person.
"You are destined for great things."
"Yeah. and cheese cake tastes like soap."
"Be careful child, that mouth can get you into a lot of trouble."
And then I felt it, something warm running down my hand.
I put my hand to my face.
"Whoa, that's blood, it's blood." I shook my wrist and then I looked at my wrist and saw bite marks. "You bit me!" I accused the darkness, "What am I going to tell my Mom? She just told me to be careful out here and not you bit me."
"Don't worry about your parents." The voice hissed. "They wont matter soon any ways."
"Show yourself!" I demanded, turning in a second circle.
"In due time," The voice promised, "I must wait until the fledgling transformation is complete. You blood smells to good.
You have to take it back. You're a vampire right? There must be something you can do."
"There is. BUt I'm afraid revoking the gift of trancforming will deffineatly kill you. It is your choice."
"Not much of a choice," I muttered.
"I have given you a gift little girl. You'll be thankful when you see it for yourself."
My legs began to woble and my head fuzzed out. I sat down leaning my head on the side of the car. I just had to hold on for a little bit longer. My Mom was sure to come looking for me soon. My throat dried up and burned and I looked around confused for an explanation. What in the hell was happening to me? I needed water.
A woman rounded the car and looked down at me. I knew right away she was the one who bit me. I looked up at her taking in her yellow cat eyes, and matching colored hair.
"WHo-" I driffted drowsy.
"Names are not important, now, we'll never meet again, you must follow me."
"But my parents." I tried to stand but it was nothing but a febal attempt.
"Wouldn't understand. As far as they are concerned you are a monster."
"Because of you."
"No, because of what is coming for you. We must hurry, everything will be brought into the light, you have to trust me."
The intensity in her eyes made something deep within myself spark. I gave her a sharp nod. she seemed over come with relief and scopped me up as if I was a four year old, and together wedissapeared into the night.
"what's after me?"
"we can't talk about it here. your adault vampire, mentor will explain, i just get the new fledglings, like i said, before we won't meet again."
we got into a black car, and drove in silence. no matter how worried i was for my perents, this creature beside me was right. i couldn't go home, they'd see me as a monster and nothing more. we pulled up to a dark castle like building with torches lit on fire for light.
"come." she said, as we pulled up to black iron gates.
there was a man at the gate. the woman folded her hands as if she where praying, held them to her chest, and bowed at the man. the man did the same, and the gates where, open.
as i passed the man i gave him a wide berth, and kept my eyes on him, in a warning.
"you must keep up!"
i hurried after the vampire.
she pushed open the old wooden doors, and stepped inside. i didn't know i was standing there gawking at the large foyer until she cleared her throat.
"shall we?"
i nodded, and followed after her like a lost puppy. she knocked on a door and although there was no answer she pushed open the door, and we went in.
a woman with sliver hair stood looking at the window. the fire lit lamps made her hair look bright, and interesting.
"your dismissed." she said, trying to sound fierce.
the vampire did the bow thing and left.
the woman turned her cat like plum colored eyes on me and smiled a sweet smile, that made me feel as if i was just welcomed home.
"Deven Mace, welcome home." she said, with a bow thing
i though what the hell, and bowed back. she went to an old wooden desk and pulled out a silver chain. she came to me.
"may i?" she asked.
i nodded. she put the necklace on me. the necklace was a sliver half moon with bright blue diamonds outlining it.
"you are to wear that at all times, it's for your safety. my names Gianna, i'm the head of the school here. you might be wondering what has happened, but don't worry your classes will explain. hungry?"
she held up a sandwich. i nodded and she handed it over.
i unwrapped it and took a bite.
"why don't we go meet your room mate?"
i nodded, mouth full of the bite i just took.
i followed her down the hall, which got more narrow, making me have to walk behind her.
she opened a door and stepped in. the blonde girl lying on the bottom bunk shot to her feet.
"Evelon, this id Deven. She'll be your room mate."
With that Gianna left.
the girl walked up to me, and held her hand out palm up. it glowed as did her eyes, and her hair blew about her face. she dropped her hand, and her hair stilled and her eyes where normal.
"okay what up with the glowing and hair flying?"
she looked at me as if i where kidding, then she laughed.
"i was using my gift. i hope you don't mind."
"that depends on your gift."
"i can read people."
"don't read me anymore okay?"
"sure, it's a little creepy i know. why don't you get some rest, we'll wake up early and i'll show you around the school. your school outfit is in the closet."
i walked to the closet, and saw black shirts and pants.
i looked at her to see if it was a joke, but she was lying on her back reading.
i crawled onto the top bunk. as i stared at the roof, i thought about how my parents would never see me. they wouldn't get me now. come to think of it, they never did. i pushed the thought aside, and turned to the wall. i closed my eyes, and wished i'd find my way.
"Deven wake up it's a perfect day, get dressed, i'm going to show you around the school!" Evelon's chirpy voice woke me.
normaly i don't like overly happy people, but evelon's happiness was different, it pyt me in a happy mood too.
"you don't have to." i said, looking over the edge.
"what kind of best friend would i be if not?" she asked, peering up at me with her wide eyes.
"we are best friends right?"
"of course." i said, reaching down to her.
she smiled and took my hand. truth was I've never had a best friend before, but if i did she'd be like Evelon.
"come on get ready." her face shown with excitement.
after she showed me around we went to the lunch room.
"well, well, well, look what the wind blew in."
"shut up Tatum you know you love me." she said, to a dark haired girl.
"the thought of it makes my skin crawl." Tatum's eyes flickered to me. "who's she?"
"Deven." i said.
she gave a sly smile, turned on her heel and walked to the lunch line.
"don't worry about Tatum, she's naturally sarcastic."
we went in line.
"Evelon!" a guy talking to Tatum said, waving excitedly.
"Robby!" she called, waving, she grabbed my hand and pulled me over.
they kissed cheeks.
"ooh your pretty what's your name love?" Robby asked.
"Deven." i said, with a smile.
it was the first time i had ever said, my name with a smile.
"well welcome, to Harrington, and don't worry if anyone messes with you just send them to me, I've got your back."
"well i'm an exception." Tatum said.
"it's true, she's just nasty by nature."
"I've dealt with girls like her before." i said.
"Huh!" Tatum laughed with out humor.
we got our breakfast and sat down. they jumped into their usual food time, talk and i stared
