It's been that long after the princess' troubles after the three clans have gone against her, but they finally were able to surrender and swear allegiance to her rule. Tokyo Landfill Zero, was no longer the ordinary landfill that people know to be just one space for the ordinary, but actually, it was made to be a city… and thus, the beginning of Mina's kingdom of vampires.

2 months have passed after the final submission of the three clans… and even she didn't expect someone to mail her one day…

*Wednesday… 1200 hours…* Nelly, one of the maids was walking alone on a hallway… one with long black hair… holding the letter intended for her highness. She later entered a lit bathroom quietly, in which behind closed curtains, she was able to find the princess. 'I know you're there.' Mina called from behind the curtains. She later folded the curtains to reveal the young princess, nude and in the bubbly water attending to her bath. She looked like a child, but in reality, she's THAT old because she's seen generations. Her ruby eyes shone for a while when she saw the maid. Once again, Nelly noticed the princess' hair was undone and wet. Her smile made the servant bow. 'I'm sorry for the trouble, your highness.' Nelly rose up, and Mina noticed the letter.

Somehow, Mina was interested when she saw the white envelope. 'I'm beginning to see that this "trouble" concerns me deeply. If it's that important, you should leave it behind. I'll take a look at it later.'

'Of course.' Nelly then put the letter on a small table in that bathroom. 'Once again, I'm…'

'Don't be.' Mina looked away, already with the distasteful emotion on her face. The maid already knew Mina was disturbed. 'You may go, Nelly. Thank you.' And immediately, the maid left.

*Mina's room… 25 minutes later…* Knowing that Mina was already working non-stop, she decided to bring some of her work and started browsing through some papers. It seemed she wanted to try some things new by looking at proposals and the progress of construction projects, like the one to have the new opera house built in the bund. It was currently under construction that time. It was what interested her most because of the dull environment the bund has for a while, and decided to look for ways for it to become something better and exciting, even for humans to see it as "spectacular". The opera house would bring that much of a wonder to her other subjects, and a sight-see even for humans to see it. It's also a start before building the stadium inside the same bund, the same one before the Tokyo olympics in the near future.

*1812 hours* Knowing Mina's dominion is the night, she decided to open the windows. It would seem somehow appropriate to see that sun set again before the dark envelops the bund. Lights were turning on in the city, and everyone was preparing well because the night is always theirs to claim, as it is the vampire's natural life.

She looked over at the table of the room. Having not been able to read it after some time of working and relaxing, she decided to see what the letter contained. She flipped it to see the back, and there was a writing… 'To the girl I've never met…' She muttered and snorted. 'Amateur.' She hissed quietly as she made the decision to open it. As she opened the envelope, she saw that white piece of paper as she expected, but also saw a very small vial. Her curiosity grew when she looked at it closely, and granted the contents of the vial was very acidic. My, my. She smiled on the utter attempt of her sender to hurt her. And he thought he could kill me right here and now.

Just when things were supposed to be somehow calm, in a split second she heard a window break, and she immediately knew it was right behind her. She kept the smile and left the the vial in the air and zipped out of the way, just before the arrow hit the vial and shattering it while spilling some of the acid on the table. The acid burned through the wood, but she also saw it burn on the floor. But what made her somehow interested is the fact that the arrow had another piece of paper with the message, "Read it".

Suddenly her smile was gone, but was somehow calm and took the piece of paper out of the envelope. Let's see what you want to really want to say. And thus, as she knew, there were three papers in her hand, and it had a message:

You've been in my eyes for quite a while now. I know you've been working hard for your people, and see that your subjects have been more than loyal to you now. And, the rumors that turn to news about you having taken out other vampires once against you have been very interesting. I know you've heard some things about my kind… but I'm a hybrid Elder Bairn. We drink the blood of humans as much as you do… but even in your terms, the same as humans… they were a very serious threat than your precious race. I don't honor any one, and I don't belong to a flag or organization. This time, I'm alone… and have no one else to carry my burden. And my own kind, was a thorn on anyone's side… so I slay each of them for as much as I could. I care for humans, after all.

Because of that, I turned to what humanity would be, if the monsters of my kind would co-exist. They wouldn't, and in a big way. Strays of my kind have been doing dark rampages ever since… and I was there to stop them. I was once used… but I got out of that simple story, and killed the one who used me. It took that long to end my life I've known as well.

Once I saw you on television, it sparked me to try looking for you. I know that the Elder Bairn was one thing, but a vampire? You literally revealed yourself, and ever since, became an icon to others. If they worship you as a deity is, I'm telling you: You're making yourself a target. You know for yourself that even vampires can't co-exist with humans, so why start to co-exist anyway? You're wasting your time.

Mina knew the message was getting nowhere. And to think the guy is making me interested? Please.

The letter continued. There's more. I can see that a vampire can really be, a depending leech. Let's say for once your kind is there to co-exist… but what happens in the future? Blood tends to be the only thing that keeps a vampire alive, and do you still think that even your small "bund" will make a difference because it presents balance? Everything is the same: The scales of the population of your kind and the more dominant number of the humans won't matter. In your case, the average vampire can be much powerful than the average human. What a human does is feel insecure, thanks to the stories he/she hears about the other species drinking blood out of everything else, which is something the person doesn't want. Your kind of course, drinks blood, and for that, involving emotion, just attacks a human, for their translation of quenching their thirst. By now, you should know the consequences of it, and others will try and kill you.

The princess seemed to get the message. It seems you're concerned for my living… but it's far from it. You're primarily wanting to kill me.

She continued reading the letter. I intend to be one of those people, because since you rule, you have been the most prestigious being of a vampire there should be, and your subjects follow you. You are all blood-consuming, and even I am sickened In that fact. You take the life of humans by doing so! That's why I want to get to you first… before starting a another string of murders.

But I'm not like others. I understand your calling because you want equilibrium. It will never happen. You WILL not have a good future ahead. If you don't expect to have a good one, then I suggest you put that faith to the test. What if one wants to kill you immediately, and you're the only one to be there, and no one else is to help you? I've been alone, and I have no one now. You have your subjects… and you've always had your support. Prove you can the make the line. It's time I settle the score, because you have been a burden to everyone else. I have been… of course, but I decided to do the better… Killing you first, then killing the rest of your kind while I still can.

I've killed off some of your kind just to get to where I am now, and I know even you would be pissed off. Knowing a vampire, you shouldn't have emotions, but you do. That's why I wanted to get your attention. If you're so confident… come to me yourself. And knowing you could already make a good track of my scent, find me. Once you do, make sure you're alone.

You may think this Is a trap, but it's my treat to let you know I AM the only one in that place. Find me… kill me if you must if I can't do the same to you, and give me the very last fight I would consider to be either a new beginning, or the path to my end. By the way… I'm opposite of the man you think is a saint. I'm a woman, who can never be a saint, and only a sinner, and you have the same name for yourself.

And I basked in blood for a long time. If blood is truly in your nature, accept this. I will be waiting… and you must remember this name: Saya… And from that ending, Mina knew she was being challenged.

The princess drops the papers on the floor and laughs. Never in her life is the princess personally challenged by some person who she doesn't know, and is of another species. 'This is madness of her… and she knows it's her end.' She smiles and knows the only way to humor her sender is to accept it. It's not because I want to see the honor in her eyes… but I want to see her try and kill me herself.

And so… knowing the risk, she decided to show herself and face that mirror from where the arrow got into. Mina then knew with her vision, she can spot figures in the night, and she saw one on a building roof, just higher from where she is. The figure was in all black clothing, and hooded. Beneath the darkness from inside the hood were red eyes… only used to see Mina clearly. Mina smiled as a sign of greeting to the figure and let her ruby eyes shine and glow, and she let her message go as her lips say: 'I accept.' The figure immediately nodded, and Mina nodded as well.

*The next morning… on that roof where the figure was…* Akira was there as he looked at the photo on the wall, and it looked a lot like the construction site of the new opera house. He took it off and took a look at the back, and a message was written: "Be a sweet girl and humor me."

He knew that she's going to get into trouble. Oh… Princess… what are you planning now? He scratched his head, because he wouldn't know the greatest fight that the two would go through… soon.
