A/N: This is my first ever Vampire Knight story. I'm nervous about it, but I'm confident that you'll like the plot. Please review with honest feelings.

"Mom, I'm home from school!"

I slipped off my shoes and put them beside our step. For some reason, I always called out the same thing even though I know Mom is never home. She is a workaholic... I carried my school bag up the stairs, ignoring the silence of the empty house.

Once I got into my room, I plopped down on the bed and grabbed the manga on my nightstand. "Vampire Knight..." My fingers flipped the book. The sight I saw on the other side brought blood rushing into my cheeks. Zero Kiryuu, my favorite character, stared intensely at his childhood crush, Yuuki Kurose. "Kyaa! Zero-kun, drink my blood instead!"

Just as I began my fantasy, my cell phone began to ring. Sighing and throwing the book aside, I answered resentfully. "Hello?" I grunted angrily. No one answered. "If this is a prank caller, I'm calling the police!" There was still silence. "Answer the phone please!"

"...Akira..."

The breathy voice sent chills down my spine. Gulping, I replied, "Y-yes?" The tone quietly died and I knew the creep hung up. Punching the numbers to the police station in, I stood up from my bed. "A stalker just called me!" I yelled.

"Do you have an idea of who it might be?" asked the person on the emergency line.

"No, but they know my name! I'm scared! Please help me!"

"Alright. How old are you?"

"Seventeen."

"Where is your parents?"

I couldn't speak after she the last question. Why wasn't Mom here when I needed her? Why is she always gone?

"Hello? Are you still there?"

I held myself from stomping my foot but ended up taking a step forward. "Y-yes, I'm still- AGH!"

I felt myself falling in a dark hole. Everything was pitch-black until I realized my eyes were closed. Also, I wasn't falling. I was in someone's arms being carried away from destruction of some sort.

Looking up, I caught sight of a handsome red-haired young man. He had beautiful cerulean eyes that were strict and straight-forward. For some reason, the boy looked so familiar because he wore a white uniform that had black stripes. The smell of chocolate and biscuits became stronger the closer he held me to his chest.

My eyes wandered ahead of us to a spinning white hole that stood like a giant wall in front of us. Before I could react, the boy jumped and threw us both into a turning portal.

The moment I came to, I was in a canopy bed. The boy from earlier was holding a wet towel over my forehead. He noticed I was awake and attempted a smile of some sort.

"Akira-hime, you're okay!" he exclaimed.

"Wh-who are you?"

He stood up and bowed respectfully. "I am Senri Shiki, a nobleman and servant to the true royal family."

I sat up, my eyes widening. "Shiki? From... From... This can't be! You're not real!"

Shiki's expression turned puzzled. "Excuse me?"

"You are a MANGA CHARACTER! This must be a dream!"

"Oh, I assure you this isn't a dream," stated a voice nostalgic to me. I looked up, seeing the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on, but I knew I had seen her before.

"Your majesty," Shiki gently greeted as he fell to his knees.

The woman walked closer to me in her large red fur lined robe. A jeweled crown rested upon her dark brown hair. "Akira... I didn't want you to find out about this so soon."

"About what? Who are you?"

She smiled warmly. "I am your mother. Queen of the pure-blood vampires."
