Chapter 1

I Was Found

I waited.

For what I don't know.

I was a little girl in an alleyway, feasting on stolen meat, when she came. A woman who had golden hair and eyes like sapphires...

"Who are you?"

Her voice was crystalline. Harsh, yet beautiful. I dropped my meat, and stared. She looked at me strangely and drew a long, black sword.

Swords are sharp.

Swords will hurt me.

Again.

I bared my teeth, my fangs ready to strike. I dropped my meat and readied my nails for clawing. "Put it away. Now."

She didn't flinch.

I tilted my head. "You are not afraid?"

"No."

Her voice was sharp and firm. I smiled. "I am Oniki."

"Devil spirit?"

"Yes." My voice hissed in the night.

I heard scuffles behind me. I saw a man, sneaking up behind me with a knife.

Knives are sharp.

Knives will hurt me.

Again.

I felt time stop. His face was frightened. He had a knife. He must die. I jumped on the wall, ran behind him, and whispered in his ear.

"Have you ever danced with the devil in moonlight?"

He was too scared to answer.

"Now you have..." I gnarled and ripped my hand through his chest. I grabbed his heart and felt it beat three last times. He stared at his chest and fell limp. I dropped him after he died.

And I sucked on his blood.

I need to. I have porphyria. I need blood or I will become insane. I see things that aren't there.

After 42 hours of pain and hallucinations, I would die. At least that's what happened to my mother.

She was still standing there, that woman with the sword.

"If you don't put that away, you'll dance with me."

She made no move to put it away.

"What are you?"

I heard footsteps behind me. With guns. They loaded them. I smiled, mouth blood stained.

"Why, the Devil, of course."


A/N: Any good so far? R&R please. I need motivation if this isn't going to be a oneshot.

PS: For those of you who can't guess, the blonde is Sephiria.
