And I'm posting another fanfiction! You see, I've had this idea for a while now. I mean, an AU where Moka is the North Pacific Mermaid Princess and she turns into her vampire side if her pearl gets taken away? Genius! Anyway, let's get this over with. I don't own Mermaid Melody or Rosario + Vampire.
Prologue
I could still remember that day.
I could still remember falling off of the boat and drowning.
I really thought I was going to die at that moment, but then, I felt a warm feeling around me.
That feeling revived me right then and there.
When I woke up, I saw a girl.
This girl had long, pink hair and green eyes. She also wore a bright pink bra and a bright pink...mermaid tail?
"You're a..." I murmured to the relieved-looking mermaid.
All of a sudden, the mermaid appeared to be in severe pain. She clutched onto her head and started backing into the sea. I also noticed her hair turning silver.
"What's wrong?!" I asked, practically shouting.
"R-run... d-don't come near me..." the mermaid cried as she fell into the sea.
I took her advice and started running. I ran from the beach as quickly as I could until I was home at last. There, my father was waiting for me.
"Oh, you're back, Tsukune," he greeted me. "How did the cruise go? Where's your mother?"
His question made me realize something.
In that tsunami which the mermaid saved me from... I lost my mother.
That night, I cried myself to sleep.
My mother's funeral was a week later. I remember walking out of the church afterward with my father to see, at the edge of the sidewalk, a girl. She seemed to be about my age. She appeared to have long, silver hair and was carrying a black parasol above her body.
My father tried to stop me, but I started running toward the girl. When I was standing before the girl, she took me by the hand and walked with me behind the church. Suddenly, still holding onto the parasol, the girl pushed me to the wall of the church and revealed her fangs.
Yes, I said it. Fangs.
Vampire fangs.
I tried struggling to escape, but this girl was far too strong. She sank her fangs into my neck and started to drink my blood. The more time went on, the more dizzy I felt. Once she was done, I remember blacking out.
I also remember waking up in the hospital, with all of my family members hugging and kissing me like there was no tomorrow. They said that I had collapsed behind the church, but none of them knew that I had actually survived a vampire attack.
To this day, I don't know why that moment has not made me grow vampire fangs. For the three years after that, I never developed a thirst for blood. However, every once in a while, I would have a throbbing feeling on my neck - the exact spot where the vampire girl bit me. Although I had almost died from what she did to me, I couldn't help but feel...mystified to her, even to this day. I had also felt that, even though she didn't look familiar to me, I had met her sometime before.
I thought of the mermaid who had saved me the week before. Then, I thought, No, it couldn't be her.
At least, that's what I thought...but then, 3 years later, I met the girl again.
