Edit-9/10/2013-Hi guys! I made an edit. This is a BAD chapter, I admit. So, hope you enjoy the new version!

Edit-14/12/2013-I've decided to change this fanfiction to M because of the things stated below. Sorry to anyone who can't read M fics. And sorry for any inconvenience.

Warning: Slight cussing and swearing/use of the words f*** and sh**. Gore, blood, you name it.


Amu POV

I leaned against the wall, the sun shining down on me. This wall was the only thing between me and the execution. The Vampire League, whose title explains itself, had once again, found another human 'breaking the rules'. I gritted my teeth in frustration. How long had vampires been taking over humans? I hated feeling helpless against the vampires, against those bloodsuckers who looked at us like bloodbags.

"Any last words?" The executioner-a human-asked.

'What a stupid question,' I thought. The person being executed was fucking gagged, how do you expect him to say anything?

I peeked out and saw other humans watching the execution intently. Disgusting. And even more disgusting, were those humans who decided to betray their kind and work for vampires, those humans called 'pets'. They would give their blood to their vampire Masters for free food and shelter.

We could live fairly normal lives, but many people could not live as well as vampires did. All those vampires say they want to 'coexist' with humans, and just live normally. God fucking liars.

I pushed myself off the wall and walked away from the execution, hearing the screams stop abruptly as the person was killed.

I walked back to the old broken down house. It may not be that great, but it was where we lived. It had a roof and four walls, at least.

"Amu!" Tadase ran down the stairs, greeting me with a smile. "Welcome back! Did you...watch the execution?"

"No," was my deadpan response.

"Why didn't you just stay home?" Kukai asked from the stairs, walking down with his arms crossed behind his head.

"Maybe she just wanted to glare and curse at the vampires the whole time," Rima joked from the kitchen, walking over to me with two cups of coffee. She gave me one, leaving the other for herself.

"Thanks," I said wearily with a smile, taking the cup. Coffee worked great when you were tired.

I sipped the brown liquid, warming my throat as it went down. It was sweet, just the way I liked it. Well, at least we had coffee.

I walked into the lounge which was on the left, and next to it was the kitchen. I sat down on one of the many couches and sipped quietly on my coffee.

"Amu-chi!" Yaya screamed gleefully. "You're back!"

Utau was walking down the stairs beside Yaya, Nagihiko following not too far behind.

"What happened this time?" Utau asked, sitting down after everyone else was seated. I sighed.

"Caught stealing food," I said.

"I can't believe they would execute someone just for that," Nagi said.

"I know, right? They got back the food, they didn't have to freaking kill the guy," I said. "And plus, it was just a slice of bread."

"The bloodsuckers are too stuck-up with their rules," Rima said, gulping down her coffee.

"I don't understand why all the vampires execute everyone who breaks the rules. Isn't that a bit extreme?" Tadase asked.

"Not everyone. It's just the humans," Utau said bitterly.

"Well, if we just follow the rules, we'll survive!" Kukai said, grinning. "Hey, I know! Why don't we made a pact?"

I furrowed my brows, as did everyone else.

"A pact? And what would that be?" Utau asked.

"Promise not to get killed or executed by vampires by breaking a rule," Kukai said, holding out his fist, waiting for us to agree.

"Yaya agrees! Yaya won't let any vampire kill her!" She said, putting her fist in the middle. Utau smiled.

"Who said I'd ever get killed by them?" she asked, putting her fist in the middle. I shrugged.

"I'll never be killed by a bloodsucker," I said, smirking and putting my fist with Yaya's and Kukai's.

"I agree with Amu," Rima said, putting her fist next to mine. Nagi and Tadase smiled and put their fists in the middle.

"I promise to never be killed or executed by a vampire for breaking a (stupid) rule," we said in unison (Rima, Kukai Uatu and I the ones who said stupid), bumping our fists together. Then we all cheered. Our group of 7 were the closest of friends. People had come and gone but we were the ones who had stayed.

"I don't know how anyone can stand watching an execution," Nagi said grimly. Everyone agreed.

Now, let me explain some things for you. Not too long ago, when I was about 6, vampires took over the human race. Burning things, destroying things, treating us like shit. They lived inside the inner walls of the city, where it was safe. Where they lived in luxury. While we had to fend for ourselves.

And to make it worse, when I was 9, there was an outbreak of 'Rabids'. Creatures who were a danger to humans as well as vampires. In the City, the vampires were safe from Rabids. But not only vampires lived in the City. Humans did as well. But that meant you had to be marked as their pet. It meant they took blood off you a week. But you were given food and a nice place to live.

But I didn't want to be a pet. I didn't want to be below them. Although, sometimes food was scarce and many times we went a night cold and hungry.

But I still thought it was better.

But I can still wish things didn't end up this way.

I can wish that vampires hadn't taken over humanity. I can wish vampires hadn't killed all my family.

Flashback

"Ami-onee!" I exclaimed happily, grabbing onto her arm.

She ruffled my hair, laughing. Ami was about 12 years old, while I was 7.

"Let's go get some berries for mother and father, okay?" she said, holding her straw basket in her arms. We had planned to have a blueberry pie for lunch, which I was very looking forward to. I nodded to her question, jumping up in excitement.

We exited the house and walked into the forest, looking around for those berry bushes we saw before.

Time Leap

I had that strange feeling of being watched, and a slight shiver ran down my spine.

"Ami-onee, I think we have enough berries. Let's go!" I said, smiling.

"Eh? Okay, sure," she said, putting the last berry in the basket. She grabbed my hand and we walked back toward the exit of the forest.

I looked over at the corner of my eye, and thought I saw a shadow peeking out behind the edge of a tree.

'Must be my imagination,' I thought. 'Yeah, that must be it.'

If only it was that simple.

Suddenly, the shadow jumped out and leapt at Ami, my suspicions being confirmed-unfortunately.

Ami dropped the basket she was carrying in surprise, as the vampire bared his fangs. I hid behind Ami in fear, my whole body shaking.

But Ami was pushed to the other side by the vampire, who instantly pierced Ami's neck with his fangs. Ami tried to push him away, but to no avail. I stood there, horrified, and unable to do anything.

Once the vampire was satisfied with his meal, he release Ami, who dropped onto the ground.

"Ami-onee!" I exclaimed.

But before I could even take one step towards Ami's limp body, the vampire was already tearing her apart in a frenzy. Her leg. Her arm. There goes her head... It's rolling towards me... I can see her horrified expression, frozen as if it was a statue. The vampire tore her body into several pieces, his eyes a mad red.

Once he was done, he stood up and turned around to me. He smirked, licking his fingers which were coated in thick, red blood.

Red...

He laughed...no, it was more of a giggle, and gave me a look that said, 'you're lucky you weren't the one I had in my sights,'.

Then he left.

Once I was sure he was gone, my knees gave in and I fell to the ground.

"A-Ami-onee..." I whispered, choking on my words. I finally felt the tears overcoming the fear, salty drops of water falling down my cheeks.

I shouted in frustration, but it came out in more of a choke-sob.

I was weak. Why couldn't I do anything? And why had I come out alive? I just stood there... I didn't do anything, nor did anything happen to me.

This world is so fucked up.

End of Flashback

I gritted my teeth at the memory. Not like I could change it. But if maybe... If maybe I was the one who died, Ami could've been the one in this seat right now. Not me. She would've been part of the legendary Group of Seven, not me. She would be alive, not me.

"Amu. Amu!" Someone shouted in front of my face, bringing me back to my senses. "Snap out of it," Kukai said.

"Eh? Ah...sorry," I said, giving my best fake-smile.

"Stop faking, faker," Rima said, pointing at my smile.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Stupid," Utau said. "We've known you for...forever. Don't think we can't tell when you're faking."

"Utau's right, Amu. Is there something bothering you?" Tadase asked. I gave a tired smile.

"It's nothing...just...this world is a fucked up place," I said.

"You got that right," Nagi said, nodding in agreement.

"This isn't the time to be joking, idiot," Rima said, tackling her boyfriend, Nagi. He laughed, scratching his head.

"But I guess you're right," Kukai said, his usual grin gone and a grim smile replacing it.

We lived in Hell.
