When a Heart is in the Dark.

Prologue

When you are first sent to the House of Night you fear that you may lose your family. That you might be shunned for being a freak and that they will hate you and forget you. That you will end up all alone. Well this is no more true than for a girl named Aurora Fujioka she was born in a town in Arkansas and lived there for several years before moving into Tulsa. Not much was known about her when she first came to Tulsa, soon though she was known for one thing. Her sixth sense, she was and indigo and had the power of fore sight on her side. Aurora would not know why but she would be sent to the Tulsa House of Night in the middle of one of her horrid visions.

Chapter one

A girl is chosen...

The day started out like any other she had been getting her studies done. Fighting the migraine she always seemed to carry on her, and hoping for god's sake that she would not have a retarded vision. She hated them with a passion they made her sicker than a dog and she just wanted to die because of them. Her best friend was a girl rather similar to herself that also had foreboding warnings sent to her. This girls name was Alexis. She and Aurora were rather close like sisters and always hung out on the weekend. This weekend would be a test of their friendship. As one would be a fledgling and the other would remain human. Part of the whole change of becoming a vampyre is forgetting your human life and learning that all of that is the past and to look to the future.

Aurora had taken her time getting to gym she hatted it and just wanted to die. Her best friend who knew her all too well told her that it was for her own good. She needed the exercise and would love to help her out. Ofcorse Aurora still put up a pretty good fight.

"Alexis no dont make me go in there please. Lets just skip like yesterday. The coach did not even notice we had disappeared. He wont today either." Aurora begged with all of her might.

"Aurora don't make me drag you in there. You know I will." Alexis said in an irritated voice. "Why do I put up with you?" She asked and dragged the protestant girl into the gymnasium where it was ofcorse basketball day. "Besides your good at basket ball." She said and smiled encouragingly at Aurora and hugged her like a sister and not just that friend everyone thinks of as mother at school.

It was down to the last play Aurora had the ball and she fell to the ground doubled over in pain and sweat a lot as she began to see a vision that would prove hard for her to control. She saw a girl begging someone that oddly looked like herself to spare her life and she would not tell anyone what happened. As this happened the tracker walked over to her and said the incantation that caused the change to commence in the girls body.

"Alexis please help me."She screamed and fainted. When she woke up she was at the House of Night infirmary. Nefret walked in and smiled at the new girl . "Ah the new girl is here. Good, lets see all of your stuff has been sent over and your lovely parents told me to tell you not to expect them to visit you." She said in a wonderful yet totally sarcastic way. "Your friend Alexis came and fell asleep over there. By the way your mark is pretty awesome."She said and handed the girl a mirror. The mark had been added to but not filled in. It was a sapphire entanglement of beautiful spirals and artistic gleam.

"Wait I cant be marked. I cant go here, I would sooner die than be here. I am a Christian." She said and balled up. "I cant be turning into something that goes to hell when they die." She screamed.

Alexis woke up. "Aurora believe it or not your going to have to live with this. You have been saved so I doubt that you will be turned down when you reach the pearly gates anyway." She said and hugged her best friend.

"Aurora listen we here at the House of Night may believe differently than the people of Faith but you are still a member of our society now so your going to have to except it." Nefret said and hugged the girl.

"Well I guess."She sniffled and tried to choke back the abandonment she felt from her mother and step father whom she despised. "Were will I be staying?"She asked.

"Your roommate is Aphrodite, you two have the vision thing in common." Nefret said and smiled.
