(Hi! I am back with another story! I hope you like this one too! Read and Review please)
Eternal Love:
"...another murder has been reported last night. The murder was of a young girl aged seventeen. This is the third case of murder this week. The victim died of serious blood loss..." She switched off the T-V.
She took one last look in the mirror and headed outside. Her limousine was waiting for her. She sighed and sat in the limo, signaling her driver to start the car.
She always got bored at the balls but she only agreed because her friend was coming too. This special ball was only for rich people in Moscow, like her.
An unusual kind of bat flew upwards, in the moonlight. It sat on a tree directly in front of the ballroom window. It could see all that was going on in there. Despite its blindness, it could sense very well.
Big, fancy cars were stopping near the front entrance, with rich people coming out of them, dressed in formal clothes. As the time passed almost all the guests had arrived.
Then, a black limo stopped near the foyer. The chauffer came out and opened the door for someone.
It was a young, beautiful girl with deep blue hair tied in a high bun, a few loose strands of hair near her face. She had glittering silver eyes and wore a long, satin off-white gown.
She wore a silver locket around her neck. The pendant contained a single diamond in the centre; she also wore a delicate pearl bracelet and a ring.
As she entered the ballroom, lifting her gown slightly, people turned to stare at her. She was truly the belle of the ball.
The bat flew to the ground and turned into a young man with a poof. He wore a formal suit and had grey hair with violet eyes. A little smile came on his face as he looked at the sky.
The crescent shone in the black, starry sky. The young, silver eyed girl realized that her friend hadn't arrived yet. She looked around the ballroom and then headed for the balcony.
She placed her hand on the railings and decided to wait for her friend. She was already getting bored.
Meanwhile, the grey-haired lad picked a red rose from a near-by bush and looked up at the girl in the balcony. He felt like he had to take a closer look at her, perhaps talk to her.
The beautiful damsel's name was Kate Jones. She was eighteen and lived in a mansion with her mother. In a way, her mother was also the reason she had to attend this ball.
She pushed back a lock of hair as her eyes gazed at the moon. She could have enjoyed being at home, listening to her favourite music.
"People come to these balls to dance, or to gossip," Kate heard a masculine voice. She turned around quickly, meeting the violet eyes of a young man holding a rose.
"I hope I'm not disturbing," he said. "Oh...no, not at all," replied Kate softly as he took a step closer, slightly bowing and stretching out the rose to her.
She took it. "You don't know me I presume. The name's Kai...Kai Hiwatari." he introduced himself.
"So, you live in the Hiwatari mansion. I heard it's abandoned. Looks like you don't like to get some fresh air." she said.
"People just like to spread rumors." he replied gently. "It's nice to know they're just rumors, Mr. Hiwatari. My name's Kate Jones." she spoke.
"Kate...would you honour me a dance?" he asked, holding out his hand to her. She hesitated, but there was something about him that made her nod.
Holding hands, both walked to the center of the ballroom. People watched as they started to dance on the soft music.
Many people admired their perfect steps and praised the beauty of their couple. Smiling continuously, Kai seemed to have come under the spell of her charming beauty.
Kate too, was amazed by the young man's breath-taking personality. They must have danced for twenty minutes when someone addressed Kate.
She stopped to look at a young girl, her best friend. "Excuse me, I have to attend to my acquaintance." Kate excused Kai politely and walked over to the girl.
"Hilary...finally you decided to show up." said Kate as she took her friend's hand. "I guess you found a way of entertaining yourself." said Hilary glimpsing at Kai.
Hilary Tachibana was a girl aged seventeen, with brown tresses and mahogany eyes she was pretty too. She wore an elegant deep pink gown with a ruby necklace and ring.
The girls walked over to the corner of the room and started talking. Kate wasn't in a mood to dance when her companion was here. Taking a final long glance at Kate, Kai left.
He, Kai Hiwatari, was unable to stop thinking of that belle as he turned into a bat and flew to his mansion.
As he came into his bedroom he turned back into a human form. He hadn't been able to prey any human that night.
He was a vampire, the cause and the answer to all those recent murders. He kept dreaming of Kate as he lay on his bed. All of a sudden he wasn't in a mood to go out again.
He was a vampire because of his mother. Prior to his birth, his mother once had been bitten by a vampire. She survived it for four years then died, leaving her son, Kai Hiwatari to become a vampire.
He was probably the only one of his kind in that country. At night he used to murder his prey by sucking their blood. He couldn't help it.
He had also consulted a psychiatrist, named Tala Volkov. According to Tala, there wasn't a logical cure to his present condition but the mythical legends begged to differ.
Kai could become a normal human, if only he would take the blood of his only true love. It was hard to believe, but was the only choice he had if he wanted to become human.
But who would love him? Many young women were in trance of his charms but if they knew about his true self they would surely abandon him.
He lived alone in that big mansion and he didn't care for company. Only Tala visited him once a week or so. Kai was grateful to him for that.
