Chapter 1: Hunted
The night was calm and refreshing; late for a date and early for bedtime. Most people were either asleep or at home enjoying the quiet relaxation before bed. The trees rustled at the calming wind that flowed by peacefully. No neighborhood dogs were barking at passing stray cats. No arguing heard from any house in the town. Laughs may be heard, but no arguing to say the least. It was the beginning of spring and yet, not warm enough to be outside at night. Though it was warm enough in the day to go swimming, but parents highly suggested not to. Rain had not visited this area of town for the past week, and they were not expecting any soon.
On a certain street a brown fuzzy dog was sleeping in the backyard. He had chosen to come outside to sleep at his dog house, since his master had accidentally shut his bedroom door shut. His brown ear twitched as he heard footsteps being made. They were making haste and many behind it. The dog raised his blue nose into the air as he smelled it. There was familiar smells mixed in with a new one. As he looked up at the sky a person jumped onto his master's house roof. He started to bark, which got other dogs to bark. The figure jumped from his master's roof to the neighbor's roof. His master came out and told his dog to come in. The long nosed boy was not happy with his dog waking him from his slumber. He had school tomorrow and was tired from today's curricular activities to handle a barking dog. The dog and master went inside and went back to bed.
The brown haired boy, who was caught, sighted on the dog's masters roof jumped from building to building as he was getting away from his enemy. They were hot on his trail as they followed by jumping building to building as well as their prey. This boy was no ordinary human he was a rare species known as a Vampire or the Japanese name some people used, Oketsu; meaning Bloodsucker. A special name was named to for two types. The one's that had power at day and not night were known as Daypire. One's that held powers at night, but never during the day were known as Nighpire. People believe the elders that made the names were drunk or rather bored. The enemies following this lonely Vampire were Vampters or, AKA, Vampire hunters. Sent to kill all of the Oketsu's, the enemy was also a different species. They were either part of the wolf clan, bear clan, or leopard clan.
The brunette boy took a short cut and jumped on a balcony and entered the open sliding glass door. He covered with the curtains and stood there peaking out between the curtains. Making sure the enemy passed by and not see him hiding. A light rustle was made behind him as he turned to a green haired lad. His sea-foam eyes were shot open as he viewed at the intruder. Piercing red eyes sunk into the green haired boy as he withered from the stare. Nothing was said as they stared at each other. The smaller boy seemed attracted to the man, but didn't know why. For some reason he wanted be closer to him, hold him; kiss him, anything to feel him. Wanting the man even more, he could even smell his blood from where he stood. How it smelled tasty, but he was more put on the thought of how good looking he was. His body heat rose for the first time in a long time as he gripped the curtains behind him. His feet wouldn't move, his hands just held to the fabric tightly, his legs stabling his balance. His breath was caught in his throat as he looked to this wondrous man that did not scream up and cry for help.
This young green haired teen was watching the boy as he started to slightly tremble. He thought maybe it was his appearance or thought of who he was, which the brown haired boy had no clue. He was shaking from the fear of him attracting attention to the hunters who were chasing him down. They stared at each other and the green haired teen's eyes traveled as he saw the blood on the boys chin and some on his neck and collarbone. His blood ran slightly cold as he realized what he was, but didn't know who he was. He was a Vampire and was choked on his shout. He was going to shout, but thought against it. He wanted closer to the boy. He took a chance and took a step. The young brunette didn't move. He took another step. The Vampire notices his motive and slightly backed away. He was breathing in gasps as he was losing his self again and wanted the blood of the man, but he fought against the thirst.
The older looking teen walked closer and was in arms reach. The other didn't move as he watched him approach closer to him, seeing the fear, but also the curiosity. The green haired boy touched the younger one's cheek and felt the coldness of it. He couldn't tell if it was naturally like that or just the weather. Most likely the weather, since he read in books; that Vampires are not cold, but normal temperature. His hand went along his scar on the bottom of his left eye and was moving to touch the brown locks. He was fascinated at this and how close he was to an actual Vampire! He could even see the fangs that the boy showed. The blood had caught onto the older boy's finger and he noticed how warm it still was. The warm breath of the Vampire rolled out in puffs as a slight wind blew and covered both of them in the curtain. The brunette could easily suck the man's blood here and now, but he didn't want too. Something told him that he shouldn't. He shouldn't be drinking people's blood from them anyway, it was because he was ambushed and needed blood from the blood loss he had. The older teen was attracted to the boy as he was attracted to him. Something told the green haired teen that he was made for him, as if the gods especially made him for him. The closeness was amazing for a mere human and Vampire.
"Son!" A woman's voice called from the other side of the door. The young brown haired teen was quick and opened the curtains and escape through the door.
"Wait!" The green haired boy yelled as he went after the boy. His hand almost had his arm, but was too late. He looked out to see no sign of the mysterious young teen with red eyes. The door opened to a woman with raven hair. The young teen turned to the woman, "For Christ's sakes! I am not your son for the last time!" His voice was angry from how he was interrupted from staring at the pale boy and his gorgeous red eyes. Though he doesn't know where the word gorgeous came from.
"Doesn't matter, now come down. Or supper will get cold!" The woman gave a mischievous smile, like always, and headed down the stairs to the kitchen.
"Damn woman." The teen muttered as he was thinking about the pale boy who came into his room was amazing. "Impossible," he mumbled to himself as he thought the boy was actually a Vampire. He looked at his fingers and the blood had still been there, so he knows he wasn't dreaming. "Damn it," he cursed as he went down stairs to his step-mother, who which was a Vampter.
