Victim of a Vampire
Chapter 1
It was a calm, autumn night in Daiba Park. The wind blew gently against the colorful leaves as the pond stood still, safe from the chaos its ducks usually caused. Only one living soul was around to witness it all.
A high pitched scream filled the air, destroying the peace of the park. A flash of black and a few short seconds later, it stopped and peace resumed with one small difference….
The only living soul it had was gone, never to return.

"Orihime, Get your butt out of bed before I have to drag you out of it!" shouted an angry, muffled female voice below her. Shocked, Orihime rolled over off the bed and landed in an ungraceful flop onto the unforgiving floor. The sound of footsteps assaulted her ears as they came closer and closer to her bedroom door.
Orihime quickly got untangled in time to see an annoyed and furious spiky-haired teen come into her room. "Hello Tatsuki-chan!" said Orihime, unfazed by the adolescent's anger. Tatsuki took in her appearance and glared at her disheveled pajamas. "You're supposed to be in your school uniform." Tatsuki said, annoyed. "Is this really how the top student should act? You're gonna make us both late!" With that said, Tatsuki left the room.
A few minutes later, Orihime left her apartment with Tatsuki at her heels listening carefully to Tatsuki's motivational words.
"Come on, move it, move it, move it. School's gonna start without us if you don't run faster!" said Tatsuki, pumping her fist into the air. Even as Orihime was getting tired from all of the running she was doing, Orihime could feel her cheer and optimism coming back to her while she ran. Today's going to be a great. I can feel it! Orihime thought.
Orihime and Tatsuki made it to the classroom five minutes before class started. Orihime collapsed in her desk and tried to catch her breath while Tatsuki went over to one of the boys who had challenged her to an arm-wrestling match the day before. Orihime drowned out the sounds of pain coming from Tatsuki's opponent and listened to the conversations her other classmates were having.
"Did you hear about-,"
"They say that lady was our age-,"
"I can't believe all these deaths are-,"
"Does this make me look fat?"
"Yes dear."
They're talking about those murders again…and apparently someone wants to be murdered by their girlfriend, thought Orihime with a sigh.
At the beginning of the season, when the nights started to become longer and the days shorter, bodies began to be found all over the city. Most of the bodies that were found had no blood in them at all and the only wound found on every body was a set of puncture wounds in the neck or wrist. If Orihime had to guess how many had been found in the last month it would probably range between twenty to thirty people.
Maybe the mole people have finally come back for their revenge on the sunlight folk! Orihime thought, with a worried look, or maybe it's true what they say about bunny rabbits and that they do drink human blo- Orihime shook that last thought off, I have got to stop watching Lifetime movies. It's probably just another mental person trying to pull a Vlad Dracul move. Oddly enough, that last thought worried her more than Mole People or carnivorous rabbits.
The bell to class resounded in the classrooms, bringing Orihime out of her thoughts. The sounds of chairs scraping across the floors echoed in Orihime's ears as students were frantically trying to get into their seats before their teacher, Matsumoto-sensei, came in. The footsteps in the hallway grew and grew…

Rukia rolled her eyes at Matsumoto-sensei's near lateness. Honestly, the woman was a teacher now and she still acted like a misbehaved student. Rukia wondered how she managed to keep her job. Though Rukia had caught Vice-principle Ichimaru giving her strange looks…
Rukia mentally shook her head away from such thoughts. She was obviously spending too much time with Kon, her furry little stuffed lion. Maybe I should get more friends, thought Rukia with a slight frown. Rukia's mind wandered as Matsumoto-sensei started reading the morning announcements.
"-also, two new transfer students will be joining our class-,"
Rukia's ears perked up. Transfer students this late in the year?
"- They are from the faraway country of Spain. God, I loved Spain! The sights, the sounds, the romance-," Matsumoto-sensei rambled. Rukia cleared her throat loudly. Matsumoto-sensei stopped speaking about her many boyfriends she had and turned back to the class with a light blush on her face. "Well, just make them feel welcome. They'll be in class next week. Now, onto Math…"
Under the dark cover of the night, two figures in white sat in silence watching the path that went from the park exit to the bustling city. The taller of the two fidgeted in irritation, annoyed at the fact that it had to spend its night with the other. Finally, the tall one spoke, "I don't think that prey is coming back. Yammy must've scared her off. I wonder how she tasted…" Little drops of drool formed at the corner of its mouth. Emerald green orbs glared at its partner, but said nothing.
A crack from the underbrush behind them sounded in their ears and they whipped around to see a third figure in a black kimono appear. "Well well, looks like we'll get to eat anyway, right Brother?" The green-eyed one said nothing. The black-clothed woman narrowed her eyes and yelled, "I am by no means your meal! I am Saito Leiko. I am the Protector of the Human Realm, the Destroyer of Evil, the Lady of Defense, and the Slayer of you Creatures. I am -!"
"-Trash." said a voice behind her.
Leiko blinked and felt excruciating pain in her chest. Her vision went black and she knew no more.
The green-eyed being watched as the foolish girl fell from the blow he had delivered mercilessly. The tall one looked at his partner, as if in wait for the signal to begin. The green-eyed being nodded slightly and said "Nnoitra, you may have your fill."
Nnoitra grinned more broadly. The grin grew and grew as he came closer and closer to the now deceased woman, whose corpse would soon be defiled just like all the ones before her.
