Prologue
Mia sighed in annoyance. How did it come to this? She looked around the room she was seated, her mother, a rather beautiful woman with dark chestnut hair and ocean green eyes, was sat next to her andwas arguing with the person oppositeher."What
do youmean you can't take her? She's your younger sister and you have plenty of room!"
The person opposite her mother rubbed his temple,he was a tall man in his very earlytwenties. He had long shoulder-length blonde hair that shined as radiantly asthe sun. As well as, large, black glasses and azureblue eyes. Needless tosay,
he was avery attractive man. He glanced down at Mia, closed his eyes and sighed before opening them again and looking directly into Mia's mothers eyes. He spoke in a calm, deep but stern tone that conveyed his growingfrustration andthinning
patience."Sheis your daughter! I do not see why I should have to take her home with me like I'm adopting some sort of animal!"
Just as Mia's mother opened her mouth to argue, another voice interjected into the argument. "Perhaps we should ask Mia herself what she would like, instead of arguing about her as if she were an object and not here, hm?" It was another man,probably inhis
late forties and wearing what looked to be a butlers outfit with chocolate brown eyes with wrinkles around them and long low tied black, turning grey hair. His right eyebrow was arched upwards as he looked at the 16 year old in question.
Both Mia's mother and the young man turned their attention to the young lady, whom of which blinked at the sudden attention. She had the same coloured eyes as her mother, however, she had same radiant blonde hair as the young man, however it felljust
belowmher chest in length and was tied into a side half pony tail. Again, she blinked. She then scratched her right cheek lightly with one of her fingers and smiled a closed eye smile, not really sure what to do."Er...I don't really understand what's
going on,so..."
To her surprise she heard a deep chuckle and she opened her eyes. She saw it was the young man who was chuckling. For some reason it annoyed her to no end and her eye twitched. "Something funny Ryu?" She half glared at the man and he looked at Mia andsmileda
slightly proud but mischievous smile. "No, not at all little sister." Ryu's voice held a layer of amusement as he glanced at Mia's mother. He leans forward and laced his fingers together and he placed his elbows on the table before
both amused and inquisitive eyes he spoke." You didn't tell her?"
Mia glanced between her mother, who for the first time in Mia's life saw was nervous and maybe scared, to her older brother confused and curious. Her previous annoyance all but forgotten. "Tell me what?" Her question seemed to have fallen on deafears
asher brother and mother looked at one another. After a few moments of silence the middle aged butler looking male answered her question. "You are a special child my dear and as a result your mother can no longer protect you from the evilthat
plaguesthe earth"
Mia blinked at the extremely confusing yet cliched andmovie like response before doubling over and laughing a loud laugh that drove everyone in the room to look at her. The butler clad man did not understand why she was laughing at him andwent toaskwhy
she was laughing until he felt a hand on his shoulder and saw it to be Ryu's. "Hush now Calsifer my old friend. She is yet to understand."The butler just nodded while Ryu turns his attention to his hysterical little sister then to his sisters motherand
nods towards her. Mia's mum sighs and nods back, placing a hand on Mia's shoulder and calling out to her. "Mia. Mia please stop laughing now. I have something important to tell you, something I should have said a very long time ago..."
Taking in uneven, deep breathsMia slowly quietens down. However, she is still slightly giggling when she turns to look at her mother. "What is it?" She tilts her head slightly while looking at her mother, who looks to be having an internal conflictonwhether
to continue or dismiss what she said. With one last look at Ryu and Calsifer Mia's mother takes a deep breath and looks at her daughter.
"As you know, you and Ryu are only half siblings."
Mia nods to show her mother she is listening and silently telling her to go on.
"You also know that your father died while you were still only a baby..."
Mia rolled her eyes at this and almost smiles "yes mum. Now what is it?"
"Well dear... um... it wasn't a car crash that killed him, like I originally said, in fact, we don't even know if he's dead or alive... see, well dear, he, he was a time traveler and we got swallowed by a time vortex and we haven't heard from him since."
Mia sat there, stunned in her seat. She blinked. Had her mother gone mad? Did she think Mia was stupid? Mia felt anger stunting to boil and jumped from her seat and slapped both her palms upon the table." What are you talking about?! Do you think I'm
stupid?!"Shetook a deep breathe before she continued are livid rant. "Also, what's this got to do with me needing to go and live with Ryu?! As well as me being a "special child" and needing to be protected from the so called "evils that plaguethis
world"this all complete dragon balls! I know I like fantasy books and movies but really people!?"
Little did she know that during this rampage of hers, her left eye began to transform from its original ocean green to a blazing, bright, almost glowing azure was seething with rage. How dare they try and take her for a fool. She was annoyed tobegin withbecause
her mother was trying to pass her off to her brother while her brother came across as that he didn't want anything to do with her. Now she is fuming because her very own mother has tried to tell her that her very own farther couldtravel through
/time! Not only that, both her brother and the butler dude, Calsifer, were in on it!
The three adults in the room are surprised by the 16 year olds outburst. Their eyes widen when they wideness the change of eye colour to her left eye. It looked as though it could flame at any moment. Ryu, however, shakes his head slightly tocollect himselfand
gently places a hand over Mia's eyes, his own glowing a azure blue, as well as the palm of his hand before Mia suddenly loses consciousness and slumped.
Ryu quickly catches her as he stands from his seat and holds her in his arms. He looks down at her. It looks like he didn't have a choice, he didn't want to take her from her mother but he had to. Looking up at the chestnut haired woman he speaks. "I'lltake
her Kristine...I'll protect her, I promise."
With that Ryu nods to Calsifer and pickes his sister up bridal style and leaves the room through the door behind him, which Calsifer opened and held, before nodding goodbye to Kristine and following after Ryu.
Kristine was left alone in the room, she looks up at the ceiling and frowns. She whispers into the empty room. "Dracul...your daughter has your temper..."
Ok so... that is quite the terrible prologue... nothing really happened and it was rather boring... however, if you'll bear with me, the next chapter should show more...hmmmm interesting content?
Again, sorry for the boring first chapter, but it just lays the rough foundations of the story...
