Prologue: Haruno Sakura, the Vampire
Sakura's POV
There.
I ran away from home. Now are you all happy?
I could tell you all hated me anyway, and were waiting for the day that I left. I suppose that all you other vampires are probably saying right now "Oh, I'm glad that Haruno girl left. What sort of vampire is she? She's such a disappointment to our kind," right?
Even you, mom, dad, and you too, brother… even though you guys smiled and told me that it was okay, you secretly were ashamed, weren't you?
I knew; behind your cheery smiles, there was really a disapproving glare: embarrassed that I was the black sheep of our family, with brother being a prodigy, and mother and father, so brilliant and smart that everybody relied on advice given to them by the two. Were you ashamed that your daughter turned out to be like… this?
So now that I ran away, are you guys also happy? The too-cheerful vampire failure, Haruno Sakura, left, and you're all probably saying how relieved you are now…
Sakura hugged her knees and cried bitter tears.
When you guys, mother and father, adopted me, what did you think? Did you guys really want to adopt me in the first place? Did you think I would fit in? From my pink hair to my bright green eyes, I always got teased. Even Mika, my best friend, taunted me about my hair at least once.
You thought I couldn't hear, Mika? I was right behind the door all along, listening to your conversation with your other, popular friends…

"Ah, Mika," Aya said mockingly, "Still friends with the vampire failure, Haruno Sakura?"
"Ah- um…" Mika stuttered, unsure.
"Yeah," Riku cut in, "that girl is such a pain! She whines and look at her hair! What sort of vampire has pink hair? When she preys on a human, they won't even be frightened one bit! She's way too nice."
Mika stared at the ground. "Um…"
Aya looked wisely at Mika. "Well, my mother says to stay away from her. She will bring destruction to your image (to the world) one day. You'll never be a feared vampire with her sticking around."
Riku nodded sagely. "Yeah. So why don't you ditch her, and be friends with us, full time?"
"Well, I would like to stop being friends with her, but Mother says I must, since my mom is friends with Sakura's mom," Mika said, "I don't really like her, but, I have to be friends with her! I have no choice."
"Well," Riku said, trying to offer some advice, "Just ditch her. Don't talk to her, and be really rude to her."
Aya nodded. "Yes, and when we're grown up, we'll be so strong. Unlike that annoying Sakura."
"Yes!" Mika said happily. "I would so like to get rid of Sakura…" And they laughed off into the distance, leaving Sakura behind the door, slumping, and crying silent tears. No one wanted her…

Since everyone hated me, wasn't it true that every other student had an unfair advantage? Didn't you, Anko-sensei, never choose me to do fun things, and let everyone else? Then, would you cover it up, saying that there wasn't any room for me to do them, while you really knew that there was a lot of room?
And my crush… I knew he would never like me… even though I devoted every second of my day thinking about him…
Liking someone is the strangest thing… when you know they don't like you, you feel that you like them even more… and the more you think about it, if they like you back, that would be strange, and you probably wouldn't like them anymore… But I can't bring myself to hate this guy…

"Oh my gosh!" Mika's fake-cheerful voice rang in Sakura's ear, "there's a new vampire living in this area! He's so cute!"
Sakura turned to Mika, and wished with all her heart that the conversation she heard earlier was false; but deep inside, she knew it wasn't. But, she wanted to indulge in this friendship a little longer, until she was left out in the darkness again… "Ah… so where does he live?" she asked.
"This is the coolest part!" Mika smiled. "He lives… right next to my house! Aren't I so lucky?"
"Sure," Sakura said, "Let me see how he looks like!"
"All right!" Mika said, "Come on; my mom's getting impatient- she says either we hurry up or she's driving back to my house without me! Hurry!"
So, the two ran to Mika's mom's car, giggling…
When they arrived at Mika's house, he was staring at the car pulling into the driveway. When Sakura caught his gaze, he turned his head away, and pulled the blinds down again.
It was that moment that Sakura knew that she had a crush on him.
-
I'm pathetic, aren't I? I really thought that he liked me. But really, inside, he probably thought that I was just another annoying fan-girl.

"Isn't anyone trying to find me?" Sakura whispered to herself. "Is it true that everyone really hates me?"
She stared up into the cold, dark night sky, and a tear rolled down her cheek. "It's like everyone I ever like betrayed me. It feels like someone tore my heart out…" And left me here, lying, bleeding… and… dying…
Sakura heard footsteps behind her, and she turned around, but suddenly her vision blotted out.
The last thing she saw were the stars shining brightly above her, in the dark, dark sky…
