Ryu- Hey all, it's been a while since I've written a fanfiction, so please pardon any errors that you may find. Also, this is the first time I've written for this series, so I may not have all the details down yet. In any case, please enjoy this fiction.

Prologue

The day when all vampires and other supernatural beings revealed themselves was the day the world changed.

It all happened when a war between the old and the new covens ended, with the latter coming out victorious. This war was a result of the new covens' desire to walk freely among the humans and in the light, but there was serious divide between the new and old. While the new covens consisted of vampires who could stand the sunlight, all the old covens were made up of vampires who could not stand the light, and did not want to break from the old traditions.

The new covens believed that since they could stand under the sun, why should they try to hide from it. So they made their desire known to the old covens, but were flatly denied. The old covens' reason was that the world would never accept them, but the real reason was that they were envious of the new covens. They could not be free, and in turn, they did not want others to feel freedom that they could not get.

As a result, the dispute turned into a full blown war that was hidden from the outside world, but the war did not go easily as planned. The new covens did not have the experience nor the abilities to go up against the ancient vampires of the old covens. It looked as if the war would be lost to the newer generation, but then one particular coven came out of the darkness and turned the tide of the war.

This coven consisted entirely of vampires who had abilities, which was rare because most new vampires did not have abilities except for the usual increased strength, regeneration, and senses. Along with this and the miraculous turning of the tide, they were named the Generation of Miracles.

The name spread far and wide, and soon every coven heard tales of the Generation of Miracles, but that was not the only thing that they heard. The fact that all the coven members each had an ability was surprising enough, but the fact that the coven only five members was shocking. These five vampires had come out of nowhere and had made history by winning the war, but there was something, or rather someone who did not make history. While many knew that the Generation of Miracles had five members, some had heard whispers of there being a sixth member, the Phantom.

The news that vampires actually existed had taken the world by storm, and had caused many to fear for their lives, but the supernatural were not the only ones who revealed themselves. Hunters and slayers also came out and proclaimed their existence. Tension rose, and many feared that another war would break out, but the tension was broken when an agreement was made between the two sides.

Neither side would attack the other, both sides would help to protect the civilians, and rogues from either side were fair game. As a result, many groups were granted or assigned areas to protect. Some groups were purely of one kind while other groups were mixed of both sides, and all of this had surprisingly been accomplished in only a few months.

In a rather crowed shadowy street, three individuals were shouting, or rather two individuals were shouting, and the third was merely handing out flyers.

"Join Seirin and help keep the peace!" Koganei shouted as he held up a flyer.

"You shouldn't say it like that." Izuki said.

"But then how will they know who we are and what we do?" Koganei said.

"They can just read it from the flyer." Izuki said. (1)

Koganei made a face, but then turned to Mitobe. "What do you think Mitobe?" Koganei asked, and then received a nod in return. Koganei sighed and said "If only you were gifted with telepathy. Anyway, why don't we split up, we can cover more ground that way." Koganei said, and the two agreed and walked off, leaving Koganei alone, until someone stepped up to him.

"Are you one of the protectors of this area?"

"Yes-geh!" Koganei said before he had to tilt his head up.

Over in another area, in a somewhat run down building two figures were busy cleaning, and moving furniture around a room.

"This place is a mess." Riko said.

"You'll just have to deal with it. We're lucky to have gotten guardianship and a base in such a short time." Hyuuga said.

Before she could retort, the sound of a door opening, and shouting interrupted her.

"R-Riko, I-I brought back a recruit." Koganei stuttered out.

Said person blanched when she saw who came through the door. 'Isn't it the other way around?!' She thought as she saw Koganei being held by his jacket.

"I'm Kagami Taiga. Are you the coven leader?" Kagami said as he dropped Koganei.

"I suppose you could say that, although not all of us are vampires, so it's not really a coven." Riko said.

"It doesn't really matter though, as long as I get to fight some rogues. Although they might not put up much of a fight considering how laid back it is here compared to America." Kagami said.

"You're from America? I hear they're having trouble with so many rogue covens. In any case, our group is open to anyone who wants to contribute. You'll just have to wait until- oh never mind. They're back." Riko said, and for a moment, Kagami didn't know what she meant until the door opened again.

"Riko, we're back, and we brought some new recruits." Izuki said as he and Mitobe walked in with a group of people trailing behind. "Huh, Koganei? You're back, and with only one recruit." Izuki said.

"Excuse me. I'm here also."

There was a moment of silence, but then everyone burst out shouting.

"Eeeh!"

"Where did you come from?!"

"Ghost!"

Deciding she had enough, Riko stepped forward and shouted. "Silence!" And at once, everyone shut their mouth, which allowed Riko to look focus on the person in question. 'Light blue hair and short stature, nothing significant about that, but his aura is familiar.' Riko thought as she studied the person in front of her, and then finally spoke. "You're the sixth member of the Generation of Miracles, aren't you?"

"Yes. My name is Kuroko Tetsuya. It's a pleasure to meet you." Kuroko said.

Before anyone could even utter a word, Riko cut them off. "New recruits! Take off your shirts and line up!"

There was confusion and doubt before Hyuuga decided to cut it. "Just do as she says, brats!" And then mostly all the new recruits scrambled to get their shirts off and stand in line.

Once everyone was in order, Riko started from one end and then began walking down the line. "Blood Born vampire of around twenty years. No abilities, either active or latent." She said and then went on to the next person. "Diluted bloodline, faint trace of wolf blood. No control over your beast." She said as she continued, and with each person, they spoke up in shock.

"Whoa she's right!"

"How does she know that?!"

At this, Hyuuga decided to explain. "Riko is a Dhampir, and because of her vampire heritage, she has a special ability which allows her to determine the race and potential of others, and despite the fact that she is not a Pure Born, her blood is potent enough to turn others." Hyuuga said.

All the while, as Hyuuga explained, Riko continued with her analysis of the new recruits until she reached Kagami. Looking at said person caused her eyes to widen.

'I've never seen such as strong blood line! I know Hunters were able to last this long, but I didn't know they could keep their blood so pure! Moreover, his body is so fit. " Riko thought as she continued to stare.

"Riko! How long are you going to gawk! You still need to check Kuroko!" Hyuyga shouted.

"Ah, right." Riko said as she went over to Kuroko and focused, but what she saw shocked her. 'Blood Born of around…THREE YEARS?! That's such a short period, wait, this isn't the aura of a Blood Born. I can't place it, and what's that on his neck?" Riko said as she tried to get a closer look, but the movement of a hand stopped her.

To others, it looked liked Kuroko was just scratching his neck, but to Riko, Kuroko was using his hand to block her view.

Knowing that she wouldn't be able to get a good look without asking outright, Riko decided she was finished with her analysis of the new recruits.

"Alright. That's all for now. Please come back tomorrow morning and be prepared for a mock battle. If you feel that you cannot participate in it, then you are free not to come." Riko said as she turned to the other recruits.

At that, all the recruits put their shirts back on and began to leave. Some had expressions of disappointment while others had expressions of excitement. As they started leaving, Riko turned around and began to speak, only to realize that no one was there.

"Eh? He's gone!" Riko said as she stared at the spot that Kuroko was moments before.

"Hey Riko! We'll be going now!" Koganei said.

"O-oh right. See you guys tomorrow." Riko said, although she was still distracted.

Kagami was busy heading home and had decided to take a short cut through some alley ways. He wasn't too worried because he was sure he could handle anything if it decided to attack.

Suddenly, Kagami heard a noise, causing him to whip around to find the source. When he found none, he turned back around, only to be greeted suddenly by light blue. In response, Kagami jumped back and saw the offender.

"Hello Kagami-kun. I would like a mock duel." Kuroko said plainly.

1. I tried to do a pun, but in the end I gave up.

Ryu- And that's a wrap. Took me a while, but I finally got this idea out of my system. Not sure where it's going to go quite yet, so I haven't decided on pairings. In any case, I'm sure you noticed that I somewhat followed the original storyline. I may keep up with it, and I may digress from it. So the story is partly original, and partly given a twist. Either way, I hoped you enjoyed.
