Chapter 1

Kuro's Point of View

By the way, translation and information in bold.

"What to do, what to do."

Kuro, 13

Status: Bored

"Who are you talking to, Kuro?"

Chi, 13, Twin Sister

Status: Giving Me Confused Looks

"Myself, imooto (younger sister)." Her only reply was, "Oh." I chuckled to myself quietly. My little sister is so kawaii (cute/adorable). I envy her sometimes. She acts like she doesn't have a care in the- CRASH!

"What was that?", I asked worry showing in my voice. What's going on? Where's otoosan (father) and okaasan (mother). I looked up at the ceiling seeing it is beginning to crack. Looking over at my sister, I saw, what looked like, true terror. Just seeing that made me want to cry. Grabbing her wrist, I pulled at her to come with me to the basement.

"What are you doing, oneesan (older sister)?", she asked frantically. I didn't say a word until we got to the ill-lighted basement. Though when I spoke, the only words that left my lips were, "I'm sorry imooto, but I must keep you safe." I closed the door, and I just left her there. I feel terrible for doing so, but I must find help for her! Oh, the irony.

Where is otoosan and okaasan? BOOM! Another ground shaking explosion? It sounds like it's coming from outside! I have to get out there! My heart is pounding into my rib cage so hard, and I can barely breathe. I'm so scared!

When I reached the front door, I was welcomed by the bright light of the early morning sun. Once my eyes adjusted, I immidately wished they hadn't. I looked at the ground to see blood puddling around my feet. I let my eyes trail the blood back to its original owner; the owner, or should I say owners, were my mother and father. My eyes widen from shock, and I fell to my knees.

"Okaasan, otoosan.", I said with tears forming at my eyes. I heard footsteps approach me and I forced myself to look up at what might possibly be my parents murderers. I was right. What I saw was two men and one female. "Who are you? Did you k-kill my ryooshin (parents)?"

"Mhmm. Yes, we did.", one of the males said with a smug look on his face to match his voice. They all laughed. It started out as a small chuckle, then progressed into a roar and howl. "Do you know who we are, kid?" I just stared at my parents bodies. "Guess that's a 'no'. Were just your everyday vampire hunters. We happen to be top of our class. Our sensei (teacher) says we are the best he has ever taught!" I can't believe he could say that with such a look on his face; the look of accomplishment.

"Hmph. I give up on this kid. Let's go!" He just left. Without a second thought. Leaving me alone... Leaving me and my sister alone without guardians. I can see him walking away until he turned around for one final word.

"We'll be back for you and your sister. Yeah, we know she's in the basement. Oh, and don't think you can get stronger like in movies and just defeat us. We'll be bringing more with us, so just watch out kid, cus' you're next." He finally turns and walks away. I just sit there on hands and knees crying over my parents' bodies. The only thing I could think of was:

Hitogoroshi... (Murder)

Shi... (Loss of life aka Death)

Aka... (Red)

Nayami... (Pain-Suffering)

BRIIIIINNNNNNNNG!

"SISTER! WAKE UP!" Who is that shouting? I open my eyes, but I still couldn't see well. I sat up from my bed and rubbed my eyes. Better, I can see now. Oh, it was my sister yelling. Makes sense.

"I'm up, I'm up. You can stop yelling at me, now."

Yoru Kuro, 15

Status: Not a morning person

"Hurry and get dressed! Breakfast is almost ready!"

Yoru Chi, 15

Status: Morning, Afternoon, and Night Person

(Skip dressing)

"Ohayoo, mina! (Good morning, everyone!)", my sister greeted. My sister, Chi, is always so optimistic. I don't see how she can be though. That is why I have always envied her life style or at least how she shows it. She makes it seem like she doesn't have a care in the world. I've been saying that my whole life, and yet, nothing changes.

"Here's your breakfast, sweetie!", chichi (Father) said.

Cross Kaien, Who Even Knows!

"Not hungry. I'm going outside to walk around.", I responded. I grabbed all my school items and left. I just walked out the door, just like back then. I shook the thought out of my mind. I looked up at the sky, and regretted it. It's too bright outside, let alone, too early. I shielded my eyes from the light.

My eyes have always been sensitive to sunlight... well actually, anything bright. I feel like laying out today. I wonder if "dad" would be mad or not. Maybe he would understand I don't feel up to it today. No, I should go for Chi. Today is that day anyway. I released a long, annoyed sigh. Today was going to be a long day!

It's been two years already. Yet, it seems like just yesterday, we were all together. At least my sister is safe... for now.
