Heyy! This is our first fan fiction for House of Night! We have read the books, and were like instantly in love with them, same as twilight as well. umm, we shut up now so you can read it, and oooh, please review XD that would be great.

We don't own House of night or the characters. How sad :'(

Zoey's POV.

I was brought to the house of night by my grandma, well I wouldn't say brought, more on the lines of forced. I don't understand why I had to be marked, why me? So now I'm sat in a small room with my grandma and loads random photos over the red walls of vampires and fledglings. Red, typical colour, humpf, should have figured that they would want things to remind them of blood. I lent my elbows on my knees and placed my head in my hands, ugh, I hate this place, and no way do I want to live here.

"Will you cheer up Zoeybird?" grandma asked me politely. Don't get me wrong, I love my grandma, I really do, but this was not on my things I love list! Being forced to sit in the House of Night. Ugh.

"No, I will not! This is just stupid grandma" I practically yelled at her. Okay I know I should respect my elders, but I was angry. "Sorry Grandma, I shouldn't shout at you it's this stupid marks fault" I pointed to the stupid mark onto of my forehead and rolled my eyes.

"It's not stupid Zoeybird, its beautiful" I huffed at that comment. How is a tattoo on your head beautiful, honestly, I mean... my thoughts were rudely interrupted by a women entering the small room I was sat in. She had a strong but curvy body, with straight sparkling teeth, huge mossy-colored and almond-shaped eyes, and a heart-shaped face, and dark, glossy auburn red hair that falls in heavy waves past her shoulders. Her beauty is unusual, even among the usual beauty of the other vampires. Her movements were so graceful and elegant it was bizarre, yet my life is at the moment anyways.

"Hello, I am Neferet, The High Priestess of the House of Night here in Tulsa. This is a pleasure to meet you Zoey Redbird" Neferet greeted me. She held her hand out for me to shake, I felt a little awkward to shake it but I guess I had to, besides that she kinda scared me, like I was getting...a bad vibe off her. She firmly grasped my forearm and bowed her head. Wait what? Okay rewind that, come on that's just weird! God vampires are freaks!

"Umm, y-yeah" I stuttered. She let go off my forearm, and ran her fingers through her beautiful hair.

"Wow, your mark is very...lovely" she literally forced the word lovely out.

"Oh, yeah umm, I guess so, I noticed it's not the same as anyone else's around here" which it wasn't, my mark was filled in, yet all the other fledglings they had just the outline. Strange I know.

She nodded at me "Yes, you are quite unique; you will fit in perfectly here at the house of night Zoey" I don't want to fit in, I don't even want to be here, I want to be with my gorgeous boyfriend heath and my best friends!

"This is just stupid, I don't want to live here, and I want to go to a school!" Neferet raised her eyebrow at me "A normal school, with no bloodsucking rejects" okay, I know that is a bit harsh, but its how I feel. "I will Never go to this stupid school, and I will Never be a part of this messed up vampire thing." I took a deep breath and hissed "It will Never be me!"

Grandma gasped at the side of me making me jump "ZOEY! How rude of you! You are going to live in this school and those friends of yours are bad influences on you anyhow, you will make new ones here and you will apologize to Neferet...Now!" Ugh, I don't want to, nothing wrong with express how I feel! Hello! Free world here!

"Oh, please it's perfectly fine, it's normal, she is probably uncomfortable making a new start here, it is a big change for Zoey" Neferet reassured grandma, she didn't seem offended at my comment at all.

"Normal" I whispered under my breath, which Neferet giggled at. Grandma just gave me a disappointed look, which I ignored, per usual.

She turned to my grandma who was smiling sweetly. I just rested back onto the chair and looked up at the ceiling. "Zoey will be perfectly fine here, and no worries you will be able to visit her, that won't be a problem, we will keep her safe..."

"I trust you Neferet" grandma said and bowed her head to her, and Neferet returned the bow, why was everything she did so perfect! It was so...Weird! Okay, so I need a range of vocabulary, I use the word weird a lot.

"Now Zoey, I must go and sort things out with your parents, they aren't very happy I stole their baby away and they definitely aren't happy you have been marked, nothing pleases them two" I just sighed, she is right, they wanted me to go to their cult thing are get the 'demon' within me banished or whatever. My grandma stood up and so did I, she grasped me into a hug and whispered "I love you my u-we-tsi-a-ge-ya" which means daughter in Cherokee. She then kissed my forehead and turned to Neferet. "I will bring the rest of Zoey's things tomorrow, would that be okay?" Neferet nodded, at that grandma left the room and I waved to her, yet she didn't see because she had her back to me.

"Come on, its dinner time now, you must be hungry darling" Neferet said sweetly. Umm thinking about it, I am quite hungry. And I'm not your darling.

"Umm, yeah, Okay then let's get some food". She walked out of the room and onto a long narrow corridor; fledglings walked past me but couldn't help but stare at my mark it was quite off putting. Was there nothing else to entertain them in the god forsaken place! I'm going to be bored out my mind! I'm so not going to be staying here!

"Oh, and I will be your mentor, anything you wish to ask, I will answer for you" Neferet said out of the blue.

"Yeah, okay, I will, umm, thanks" I sighed. Turning a corner I heard the sound of the fledglings talking in the dining hall. I felt nervous all of a sudden, I'm barely ever nervous! What's happening to me! This vampire thing is so getting to my brain. Why couldn't I just run from this whole thing!

As I entered the dining hall, most fledglings looked round and started to whisper, probably about my stupid differently coloured in mark, that I hate so much. Wow, this will be annoying. Once some fledglings started to be quite and stared at me with wide-eyes (trust me, it's quite embarrassing and awkward) other fledglings noticed and did the same reaction, the hall fell silent, except for the odd whispers.

Neferet stood there amazingly at side of me and broke the silence. "Now, House of Night" Everyone averted their gaze from me and to Neferet "This is Zoey Redbird, a new fledging, as you can see, her mark is a little different then all of yours, this doesn't mean special treatment for her" phew, I'm glad about that! "Please welcome her here, as we welcomed you, thank you, please continue" at that the mumberling started again.

"Okay, Stevie-ray will show you to your room, she knows you are here, you won't have a roommate yet, but you will soon enough" Neferet informed me.

Neferet departed the dining hall. I walked over to the big stall of food. Great now I have lost my appetite. Ugh, today is just going to drag on! I picked up an apple and some brown pop, oooh I love me some brown pop. Now what? I turned around to see everyone in their friendship groups in a booth, how I missed my friends. I sighed and looked at my apple. Wonder what they are doing, and I wonder how heath is, he is bound to be missing me. He needs support now that he is trying to stop drinking.

"Heyy" a seductive boy's voice came from the side of me, making me jump out my skin.

"Whoa, I need a warning when people sneak up on me!" I blurted still looking down at my apple.

"What an Unusual mark you have their Zoey" more mention of my mark, I mean come on its not that different, is it? I peeked through my black eyelashes and lifted my head up to see a...oh my god!

Okay, thanks for reading.. please review!! Pleasseeeeee!!! ^_^
