Hi, and welcome to the joint fiction between my friend and I. We are both very different from one another, me liking science fiction and her liking anime. We are very different yet we are the same. Anyway, we really hope you enjoy the epic tale told in the eyes of our characters, Jesse and Dikay.
We do not own anything corporate or anything else recognizable. We only own our own characters.
So really we hope that you enjoy, please review and tell us what you think. ;D
Till later. ;3
Dikay walked in the woods, a bag hanging over his bony shoulder. The trees were blowing in the wind, the un-sunned morning cool. It was around six in the morning, the breath of the day beginning to surround the young boy. The cherry blossom trees all around him had just started to bloom, their leaves starting to turn their beautiful pink. They were starting to bloom just in time for the town's cherry blossom festival, which started the next day. Dikay's mind paid no attention to the beautiful scenery though, no his mind gave him only glances of the untold morning. He was somewhere else as he walked through the trails, somewhere less quiet more frustrating. No, nothing like the beauty all around him.
Suddenly from the darkness of the forest, he hears a voice say, "Penny for your thoughts Dikay."
Dikay looked toward the voice and held back a slight frown. The owner of the voice had long brown hair that hung around her skinny, curved body. Her eyes were a light green with the slightest hints of blue. A black t-shirt and jeans were her attire.
"Jesse, hey." Dikay breathed, looking at his friend lightly.
"Hey. Penny for your thoughts mate?" She repeated, not backing down a bit. Dikay knew that no matter what he did, Jesse was going to continue to ask for his thoughts until he told her what was wrong with him. But fortunately for him, Dikay was an extremely good liar and now was a time when that fact came in handy.
"My mom kicked me out." Dikay said shrugging his shoulders. Jesse sighed as he sat down next to her on the rock that she was occupying.
Jesse then pulled an ear bud out of her ear and held it next to him. "Listen to Adam, he'll ease your pain." She laughed as Dikay took the ear bud and placed it into his ear. Dikay and Jesse had been friends since childhood, early childhood. She knew Dikay better than anyone else could, she probably knew him better than he knew himself. Jesse knew something was hurting him, but didn't ask. No, she knew he would rather handle whatever problem he had by himself. Jesse jumped, violently awakened from her thoughts, as she felt something hit shoulder softly. However, it was simply Dikay taking his bag off of his shoulder.
A few hours had passed and Dikay was no longer depressed. Jesse had a strong effect on the way he acted, just as a sister would. She knew his dreams, the things that made him happy, or sad, or even the things that grossed him out. She was his big sister, his rock. Suddenly out of no where, a man appears in front of the two teenagers pulling them both from their thoughts. They could tell he was weak, yet he stood straight almost menacingly. Jesse then saw a bloody wound that looked a lot like a gun shot wound on his chest causing her eyes to widen in surprise. Acting fast while wasting no time, Jesse and Dikay jumped from the large rock they had been previously sitting on and ran to the man.
The man, whom was now kneeling on the ground in pain, looked up at Dikay; a look of anguish on his face. Frozen on the spot, Dikay stared down at the man unaware of what to do. Jesse, after slightly arguing with the injured man, made him lie down on his back so she could inspect the damage. Though not a trained medical official, Jesse knew what to do in an emergency situation. The man then did something that surprised both Dikay and Jesse. The man swiftly grabbed Jesse's wrists painfully and pulled her close. Jesse screamed out in pain and the man then pushed her away, almost uninterested. He then jumped up and grabbed the white and red haired boy, pulling him to close for comfort. Dikay's original reaction would have been to quickly try and pull away, yet something within him told him that his action would end up making the situation worse.
So, Dikay just stared into the other man's eyes, the dark bluish eyes with red staring into his soul. He then realized the man was getting closer to him. "Your eyes," the man started, "hold hate in them." The man suddenly causing Dikay to jump in surprise. That was when their lips met, it was only for a fraction of a second. The man thing placed his lips on Dikay's warm neck. A light stinging sensation went through the teen's body, a wave of unconsciousness hitting him hard. Before his mind went completely black, Dikay could feel the slight pressure of someone's lips on his.
Jesse was struggling to stay conscious, the dark waves now passing over her. The man had done the same thing to her as he had done to Dikay causing a massive amount hate to bubble within Jesse. She painfully gripped the wet grass hard as if that would calm the burning-like sensation running through her veins. Her whole arm felt as if it were covered in flames. Jesse's vision started to fade, her perfect vision turning blurry and red. Then the world went completely black and lifeless to her.
Jesse snapped her eyes open in panic, fear the only emotion running over her. She felt a hand on hers which caused her to look to her right. There lied a man sitting in a chair beside her, his feet propped up on the edge of the bed she was lying in. Jesse sat up and blinked at the man as if she were trying to place whom he was. He felt the sudden shift on the bed and opened his dark brown eyes. He then sat up and leaned toward her. Jesse looked at the man with confusion.
" 'Ello." He said in a bright tone of voice. Jesse nodded at him unable to get the words that she desperately tried to speak out. "Most likely, you can't talk yet, it'll clear up shortly. Probably."
Jesse cleared her throat hard, flinching as a fire-like pain ran up her throat. She disliked it very much. "W…what…Who are you?" Jesse asked, trying hard to ignore the sharp, unbearable pain.
" 'm the Doctor." He turned and smiled at Jesse. A sigh escaped from his lips as he walked to a small console and started typing. Suddenly Jesse remembered…
"Where's Dikay!?"
The Doctor glanced back at her, "I left him back in the woods." He said smartly, smirking at her pissed off look. " 'm kidding, he's in the room down the hall." The Doctor then sighed, a grim look passing over his features. "He's in bad shape."
Jesse also sighed, muttering to herself, "So he's alive. Thank God." Suddenly the fiery pain in her neck got worse. For her duration of her conversation with the Doctor, Jesse had been ignoring the pain but now it was unbearable. A nurse walked in and went over to Jesse but she ignored the other woman and returned her gaze back to the Doctor. "Where am I?" She asked.
"A hospital." Jesse nodded and sighed. A sent then filled her nose that brought her both pleasure along with pain all at the same time. She turned her head quickly to see the nurse had cut her finger accidentally. The nurse glanced at Jesse then to the Doctor, who nodded at her, she then left the room. The Doctor sighed then went over to Jesse.
Her body was shaking slightly, her fingers laced tightly in her hair. "What…what's wrong with me?"
He then sighed again deeply, softly saying. "You've been turned, I was too late."
Jesse turned to the Doctor, a look of fear on her face. "Too late? Too late for what?!"
"You're a vampire Jesse."
Jesse stared astonished, not sure of what she should say. "And Dikay?" She whispered, the words barely passing her dry lips.
"Also a vampire, only his body is trying to fight the change. Your body, however, welcomed the change with open arms." The Doctor said harshly, it wasn't that he was angry with Jesse just a bit angry that there had been no chance to save her.
"Great, so now I'm a blood thirsty monster? Fantastic, fan-fucking-tastic."
The Doctor rolled his eyes, "You go by vampire stereotypes. Not all vampires are monsters, they are nearly extinct ya know."
Jesse flinched, half out of surprise. Never in her life had she thought vampires were real, now she was one. Her face darkened dramatically, "I need blood." She muttered darkly, glaring at the Doctor darkly.
Another nurse then walked in, Jesse blinked at her unsure of what to do. The nurse had dark blonde hair and dead silver eyes. Her bangs were parted in the middle, showing her forehead and a ribbon that was tied across. She was dead skinny, she herself simply looked like a corpse.
"This is the blood donor," the Doctor said through clenched teeth as if it pained him. "Her name is Jeluna, she is a human." Jesse nodded, smiling kindly at the girl.
The girl walked over to Jesse and sat on the bed next to her. "Hello," the woman's voice sound like a silver bell, gentle and sweet, to Jesse's over sensitive ears.
"Hello, 'm Jesse." The woman made a half greeting bow on the bed then uncovered her arm. She then took a small scalpel and pierced the cold metal onto her skin. The Doctor backed up to the other side of the room as Jeluna cut up her arm, a lost look on his blank face. Jesse held her breath, trying to keep the sweet smell of blood out of her system. Jeluna then pulled onto Jesse's hair and forced her to drink the small part of blood that came from the large gash. Jesse took about three pints of the girl's blood and then released her. Jesse felt like crying, she felt like a monster. Jesse then gave a false smile and then looked at the Doctor. "Done, can I see Dikay?"
The Doctor rose an eyebrow, "If you can get out of that bed." Jesse jumped up from the bed and walked out of the room, slightly wondering if the Doctor was going to follow her. Not that she cared or anything, no she didn't care at all. The door to Dikay's room opened and Jesse looked at the boy in shock. Her wide eyes stared at the pale boy lying on the long hospital bed, never before had she seen him so weak.
"I told the hospital he was brain dead," Jesse turned around and saw the Doctor leaning up against the door frame. "They'll leave him alone for a while but honestly I have no idea when he'll wake from this." Then to himself he muttered, "Or if he'll even wake up." Jesse nodded, feeling ready for when Dikay would awaken.
