"Ahh, man! This is the worst!"
"It's better than an hour commute every morning!"
"Are you kidding me?! At least there are plenty of hot chicks at your school! Everyone knows that!" a blonde haired, teenage boy paused, then screamed "An all boys academy?! My parents hate me!" The boy then began to beat his head against the nearest wall.
There were four boys in the dimly lit classroom. Two of them began laughing at their friend's obvious misery. The sunlight was sending its golden rays through the cracks between the blinds, giving the room its only source of light, but it was enough to illuminate the majority of the room.
Seeming to be unaffected by the beating he just inflicted upon himself, the sandy haired boy looked over to the only member of the group who was not amused by his show of self inflicted pain. "I think we all have it better than poor ol' Tsukune here! I've never even heard of this… uhh…" he trailed off trying to remember what school his classmate had enrolled in.
"Yokai Academy." Tsukune finished coldly. Tsukune and his 'friends' had just finished Junior High School mere minutes ago and had stayed behind to say their farewells. "Well, I'm afraid I have to go fellas. Maybe we'll meet up again sometime." Tsukune said with a forced smile.
"Yeah man! Good luck at this Yoplait Academy or whatever. I bet THAT school even has tons of hot babes…" The sandy haired boy reunited his head with the wall once more.
The other two boys had to pry an almost unconscious teenager away from where he was lamenting on the three years that faced him. "See ya Tsukune!" the two said in unison.
Tsukune quickly turned on his heel and exited the building, glad to be away from those bumbling fools. He was finally going to a school for his own kind, given he was sure he would be the only of HIS kind, but that didn't matter. A school for monsters sounded like paradise. Being a vampire, he could not wait for the next morning to come.

Tsukune was waiting outside his house, early the next morning, waiting for the bus to arrive. On the outside, he looked like an ordinary 15 year old boy. He was average height, had a mop of fairly straight, dark brown hair, and a pair of almond colored eyes. He was well muscled, as a result of years of intense training from his father, but that wasn't the REAL Tsukune. Through his training, and being forced into human society at a young age, he could mask his vampiric appearance, as well as his exceedingly powerful aura, with a human disguise. To prevent attention to himself, he decided that an 'average male' look was best suited to blending in with the humans. When he abolished the restraint put on himself, however, his hair would turn a gleaming silver. His eyes, a blood red with narrow slits for pupils. While he still had fangs, even in his human disguise, they grew longer and more curved when he was a vampire.
While Tsukune was lost in thought, he almost didn't notice the yellow bus crawling to a halt in front of him.
The doors swung open and Tsukune was greeted by a man dressed in a blue suit. He donned white gloves and a cap that hung low over his brow, hiding his eyes. A cigar was held firmly between the man's teeth with a small, continuous wisp of smoke rising into the air.
"Yokai Academy?" The man asked, not looking at Tsukune.
"Yeah, you'll take me there?"
"Hop on, boy." The bus driver looked at Tsukune revealing, not your average set of eyes, but two glowing white orbs.
Tsukune climbed onto the bus, undeterred by the man's ghostly eyes. He'd seen much scarier things than that. He took a seat a little more than halfway back from where the bus driver was seated, well, driving the bus.
"You a freshman at Yokai Academy, boy?" The bus driver looked at Tsukune through his rear view mirror.
"Yes, I am." Tsukune replied. The bus driver switched his attention back to the road. Tsukune was gazing out the window thinking about the future that awaited him. His father had told him stories, when he was a child of the days he helped found Yokai Academy. Together with Akasha Bloodriver, Touhou Fuhai, and the Headmaster of Yokai Academy, they formed a school hoping to teach the future generations of monsters to peacefully coexist with the human race. Tsukune's father had been the driving force behind such an idea, as he is the first monster to have ever walked the earth. In his youth, he was known by many names given to him by the humans including Lucifer, Nosferatu, and, the most common one, Dracula. In time, he was noticed as the most powerful of monsters, and became Rex Monstorum, The King of Monsters.
They had been driving for almost ten minutes when the bus driver looked up at him through the mirror "You sure you want to go through with this, kid? This is a scary ass school you've gotten yourself into."
With a smirk, Tsukune did not look away from the window as he said "Trust me, I'll be fine."
"Hope that's not just bravado, boy, we're here." The doors to the bus flew open, and Tsukune stepped out onto the hard, dirt covered ground. "Good luck, vampire. I'll see you around."
"How did you-" Tsukune whipped around to find he was talking to the air. 'How did he know I was a vampire?' Tsukune thought to himself. He decided not to worry about it and turned to scan his surroundings. To his right the ground dropped off and gave way to a huge body of water. A long ways off, directly in front of him, stood a large, Gothic style building that reminded him of his own home. Of course, his home could have easily fit three of the academies inside of it, and another six within the surrounding land. Being the son of a three millennia old vampire had its perks.
Tsukune was so busy soaking in the atmosphere that he failed to notice the bike speeding out of the woods behind him. "Look out!" The girl on the bike screamed.
"Huh?" Tsukune turned just in time to get hit head on by the bike. Tsukune grunted in pain, and was thrown across the clearing he was standing in.
'What the hell was that?' Tsukune thought as he started to get up.
"Ohh…" said a sweet voice. Tsukune barely noticed the girl in front of him as he was shaking his head to clear the pain.
'What's this in my hand? It's so soft.' Tsukune looked up and his heart could have stopped. Lying in front of him was the cutest girl he had ever seen. She was breathtaking. Her long, pink hair fell to the ground. If she were standing up, it would have easily gone all the way down her back. Her breasts were full and round from what he could see. His eyes raked her body, and he could feel his cheeks heating up. Tsukune looked at her face and saw that she too, had the slightest bit of pink to her round, perfect cheeks.
'Why is she…' Tsukune's face became a deep scarlet as he realized what he had used to help him get up. Tsukune pulled his hand off of the girl's thigh as soon as he realized where it was. Thankfully, the girl didn't seem to notice.
"Ohh… I'm so sorry, I'm anemic and I get dizzy sometimes. Are you hurt?" The pink haired girl was looking at Tsukune with concern lining the deep emerald color of her eyes.
'Wow… she's so cute' Tsukune thought. "Uhh… nope! I'm perfectly fine. Are you okay though? You took quite a fall" Tsukune sat up, facing her.
"Yes. I'm okay. Oh… you're bleeding." The girl reached for a tissue she had in her pocket, and leaned into Tsukune, propping herself up with a hand placed next to his thigh. "Here, let me hel… Oh, that smell." The pink in the girl's face had returned and deepened to a dark red.
'Smell?' Tsukune took a deep breath and his nostrils were met with the most decadent scent he had ever had the pleasure of inhaling 'She smells so nice…' He thought. "Is… is everything okay?" Tsukune had now leaned back, holding himself up with his hands.
"Please forgive me…" The girl had looked up at Tsukune with an expression no girl had given him before. Longing. "I'm normally good at keeping myself in check, but… but I just can't resist."
This gorgeous, wonderful girl pressed her hands to Tsukune's chest followed closely by her head. Tsukune began heating to a point where he was sure his skin would melt right off. "H-Hey… what are you-" he was cut off as a pair of beautiful emerald eyes looked so innocently up at him.
She moved closer and closer until Tsukune could feel her breath on the side of his neck. "I'm sorry… but you see, I'm a vampire!"
'Did she say vam-' Tsukune's disbelief was short lived as a pair of fangs chomped down into his neck. "Ahh!" Tsukune strangely found the sensation of having the blood drained from his body quite pleasurable. He nearly let loose a moan of ecstasy but caught himself just in time.
The pink haired beauty pulled away after almost two whole minutes of gorging on Tsukune's blood. "Oh, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to. It's just that, you smell so good…" The girl blushed a bright red "And your blood had the flavor to match it!" Suddenly she noticed Tsukune was grabbing at his neck where she had just bitten him. "I didn't hurt you, did I?" she asked sadly
Tsukune saw the worry in her eyes and quickly responded "N- No not at all! It didn't hurt one bit!" 'Should I tell her I'm a vampire too?' Tsukune wondered.
"Oh yay! I'm glad!" The girl said excitedly. She stood from where she had just sucked Tsukune's blood, and began to gather her papers that had fallen when she crashed into him.
Tsukune decided not to reveal his true nature to her just yet, and picked up a folder labeled 'Application.' He handed it to the girl who had a smile that could make his own father weak in the knees. "So, you're going to Yokai Academy too?" He asked, finally getting to his feet. He had a much better view of this beauty before him now. She had on a white button up shirt and a green jacket with a 'Yokai Academy' emblem over her chest on the right side. She wore a khaki, plaid skirt that barely covered up her round butt. Her thighs were pale, like the rest of her skin, but beautiful (and soft, as he had learned first-hand). Black socks extended up to just below her knees. 'She's so cute.' Tsukune thought. He then noticed a choker around her neck with a small, two link chain hanging from the center. At the end of the chain was a silver rosary with a small, red jewel in the center. 'A seal? How odd.'
"Yeah! This is my first year here!" She said excitedly.
"Mine too." Tsukune said with a smile. The girl in front of Tsukune suddenly looked to the ground shyly. "Something wrong?" he asked.
"What… what do you think about vampires?" she asked.
The nervous tone in her voice was obvious and understandable as vampires were a race of power and pride. They looked down on the other species of earth and believed themselves to be above all other monsters. Because of the naturally arrogant and proud nature of a vampire, most monsters hated them. 'She doesn't know what I am.' Tsukune thought, and had to smile at the irony of the question being asked to him. 'She can't know. Not yet.' Tsukune looked at her with a warm smile "I don't have a problem with vampires at all. In fact, I like vampires quite a lot!"
"Oh, thank you! Yay!" Tsukune was then tackled to the ground in an all out hug from the pink haired beauty. He felt the heat in his face grow as she pushed herself up on her hands and knees and looked down at him. "In that case, let's be friends! I was worried, since it's my first year, that I wouldn't make many friends. The fact that I'm a vampire doesn't help either, but you said you don't mind vampires! Oh, won't you please be my friend?"
"S- Sure I'll be your friend." Tsukune could not believe what was happening. The hottest girl he'd ever seen was practically begging him to be her friend. "My name's Tsukune Aono, by the way."
The girl fired another hug at the already grounded Tsukune "I'm so happy we can be friends!" She released him and got to her feet. Tsukune followed suit "I'm Moka Akashiya. Pleased to meet you Tsukune!" Tsukune could have melted there and then as Moka flashed him a dazzling smile
'I have to tell father about her' Tsukune thought "Well we better get going if we're going to be on time."
"Oh you're right!" Moka rushed to her bike and quickly got on. "See you after the entrance ceremony Tsukune!" with that, she rode off into the direction of the school.
'Moka… It hasn't even been a day and I've already made a friend. And not just any friend, she's a vampire too!' The excitement inside Tsukune had finally receded to a manageable amount, and the blood finally drained from his face. Tsukune took a deep breath, letting the clean air fill his lungs. Moka's scent still lingered in his nostrils, and he thought to himself, 'What would her blood taste like? Divine, I'm sure.' Tsukune allowed his mind to linger on the thought for a bit longer before he took his first steps towards Yokai Academy.
