A/N: Hey! I have a little code-y thingie in this.
In the first paragraph where it's almost all italics, the non-italics are thoughts. Disclaimer; I don't own Tsubasa!


Run, my mind screams at me, down the stairs, faster, faster! I hear footsteps in the hallway up the stairs. How did he get through the window? How does Emily know him? Why did she tell me to run?
Faster, faster, faster, Emily says go faster, faster... faster...
"Emily!" I scream.
"No!" Emily screams back, "Run!"
I freeze. I turn and run up the stairs.
"Emily!" I scream again, "Emily! Emily!"
I run into her room. There's a man in a black cloak. His light brown eye blazes with anger, his violet glass eye stares into nothingness. He turns toward me, flipping his raven black hair from his face.
"Emily..." I ask, "who is this?"
"Evelyn!" Emily says as she runs to my side, "I told you to get out of here! This... this is Seisherō."

"Sheesh...er...oh?" I ask nervously.

He bends down to my height with a serene smile.
"Yes," he says, "Seisherō is my name."
"What... do you want with Emily?"
"She knows too much about them."
"Who?"

"Vampires?" Emily asked.
"Yes. And I need to know what you know. So tell me."
"You're an idiot, Seisherō. They aren't real! You're a grown man. Vampires are fictional! Some made up story!" Emily held up Demon in My View, the novel that she has been reading over the past weeks. "They. Are. Fake." She says as if talking to a three year-old. Seisherō chuckles.
"She has no idea," he mutters. Then, he pulls something out from a shaft. I hear the shink! of a sword being drawn.
"Evelyn!" Emily cries, "Run!" I obey instantaneously. She won't have to tell me twice. I jump up, ready to get the hell out of there. But before I leave, I grab Emily's phone. As soon as I get it I'm going, going, gone.
As soon as I get out of there I'm calling 911. My heart is pounding. Out the door, slamming it behind me. As I'm running I hear Emily's cry of pain.

No, no! Emily... I can't lose another family member! And not to a murderer!

"No!" I woke up in a cold sweat.

Stupid memories, I told myself.
"Evelyn!" Emi calls me, "get out of bed! You're going to be late for your first day at school!"
"Oh crud..." I mutter under my breath. I got up, changed, and ran down the hallway of our new apartment.
"Where you dreaming about me and Seisherō again?" Emi asked as she wrote a letter to Grandma Greenwoods with her metal auto-mail arm(1).
"Yeah," I answered, "those freaking memories still haunt me."
"Well," Emi said, "we're somewhere new. Away from horrible murderers and memories."

Emily and I had just moved to a city called Southfalls. It was a major city in the state of Havenbrooke, which was found in the country of Leigh.
"Yeah..." I said, then changed the subject. "Hey," I asked, "what college are you going to?"
"I'm going Ôto University."
"Okay," I said. Emi handed me two granola bars and lunch money.
"Let's get out of here," she said happily. We both got into her black Toyota and drove off.
"OU is just down the road from Tsubasa," Emi said, and I nodded.


I glanced at my watch. Three minutes until eight.
"Oh god," I said out loud, "I have to be in there by eight." The first period started at 8:05, but everyone had to be there by 8:00 at most.
Emily had dropped me off at Ôto instead of Tsubasa just to make me walk all the way down the street to get there. At this rate, I was NOT going to make it to Tsubasa High on time.
"Screw this," I muttered and broke out to a run. I counted the minutes.
7:58, 7:59, I was running up to the school. Faster, faster... 8:00! I walked in the doors of Tsubasa High just as the bell rang. I sighed with relief all too soon. I didn't know anything. Where was my locker? What was my schedule? Where were my classes? I reached into my backpack and pulled out a picture of the principle. Long raven black hair, brown eyes, long skirt. That's who I was looking for. After a few minutes I saw her. She was wearing, just like the picture, a long black skirt. Over a white blouse she wore a black jacket. Next to her walked a skinny, pale kid with blonde hair and blue eyes. He wore a red hoodie, faded jeans, and blue sneakers. He looked older than me. Also with them was a shorter, younger looking brunette boy with chocolate brown eyes. His right eye was clouded, and I guessed why. My mother was blind out of her left eye, and it clouded up the same way. More bitter memories of Seisherō flooded my mind. The image in my head of his glass eye almost made me throw up.
Not now, I told myself, it's not the right time or place.
"Hello Ms. Evelyn," the principle smiled, "I am Yūko Ichihara, your principle. These young men next to me are Fai D. Flowright," the taller one waved, "and Syaoran Li," the shorter one smiled.
"Hello," he said, "welcome to Tsubasa."
"Trust me," Fai said, "you are going to make a lot of new friends today." Then he grabbed my shoulder and pulled me down the corridors. He stopped at locker number 167.
"This is your locker!" Fai said happily.
"Oh," I said, out of breath, "thanks."
Syaoran handed me my locker combination. In less than a minute, my locker was open and I had my book for the first period.
"Ms. Ichihara put us in all of the same classes," Syaoran said, "so I will be your main guide. Fai is with us the first three."
"Now," Fai said, "we have four minutes to spare before first period, so let's introduce you to our friends. Fai then again grabbed my arm and pulled me down another corridor. In that hallway stood two really pretty girls. One wore a white blouse with a pink feather charm (2) necklace and a magenta skirt. She had auburn colored hair and brilliant green eyes. The other wore a black mini skirt and a purple tank top. When the auburn spotted us, her green eyes lit up.
"Syao!" She cried as she ran over and hugged Syaoran so suddenly and with so much force that he fell over. Saving Syaoran from a concussion, Fai caught his head.
"Oops!" the girl cried.
"Don't worry, Sakura," Syaoran answered.
Sakura? I said to myself, I think I'll like her!
The raven haired girl's name was Tomoyo.
"Whoa," she said, "your hair, the green and blue hair is beautiful!" I looked at the green and blue ends of my long blonde hair and smiled.
"I was planning on washing it out tonight," I said, "to dye it a different color permanently."
"Oh," she answered, "okay."
"That guy over there," Fai pointed to a jet black haired guy wearing a black shirt and dark jeans, "is Kurogane."
"I heard my name," the young man's deep voice said. He looked up at us, and the sight of his eyes startled me. They were red. Crimson, blood red, red. He was the exact opposite of Fai; he had an almost perfect tan.
I don't know about him, I told myself.


"What a day," I said as we walked out of Tsubasa High, "I like this school!"
"I'm glad," Sakura smiled.
"Hey," Tomoyo asked, "where do you live?"
"In the Rōzu apartment building."
"Really?" Sakura cried, "me too! And Syaoran, Fai, and Kurogane live there!"
"Oh my god," I cried, "that's awesome!"
Emily was waiting for me outside the school doors. When I walked out, she flipped her dark brown hair and smiled.
"Hey, Eve," she said, "made some friends?"
I introduced my friends to her, and told them about how they lived in the same building.
"Cool!" Emily replied, "You need a ride?"
"Oh," Fai said, " we usually ride home with Kurogane."
That's when the red eyed man walked out.
"Oh look," Fai said, "I guess we have to go now!" Emily guessed who that was. After getting a good look at him, she smiled.
"Chotto! Kurogane-san, hajimemashite!" She cried happily. Kurogane stared.
"Dono yō ni watashi wa kono gengo o hanasu shitte imashita ka?" he asked.
"Tada kan."
"Sore wa sore o katto shite imasen!"
"Mā ī!Sore ni taisho suru!" Syaoran, Sakura and I stared blankly as Tomoyo burst into laughter.
"Emirī· tsumari anata no namae wa?" she asked, and after Emily nodded, she went on, "Anata wa teru yori kare ni meiwakude wa sugurete iru!"
"Tomoyo anata o kuso!" Kurogane replied.
Fai smiled.
"Translation!" he cried, "Emi: 'Hey! Nice to meet you, Kurogane-san!' (3)
Kurogane: 'How did you know I speak Japanese?'
Emi: 'Just a hunch.'
Kurogane: 'Hunch doesn't cut it!'
Emi: Oh well! Deal with it!
Tomoyo: 'Emily -is that your name?' 'You're better at annoying him than Fai!'
Kurogane: 'D*mn you, Tomoyo.'!" (4)
Then Fai turned to Tomoyo.
"Sorry," he said, but that last part's not true."


A/N: Okay!

(1) Her arm was cut off by Siesherō, and I got the "auto-mail" idea from Fullmetal Alchemist.
(2) It's Sakura's Feather!
(3) Honorific xD
(4) Sorry; confusing translation.
