Blood, Roses, and Chocolate

Disclaimer: I do not, nor shall I ever own Sailor Moon (unless by some miraculous spurt of luck that it goes up for grabs and that I have a bunch of money to buy it, but I don't see that happening any time soon).

A/N: I always wanted to write a vampire fic… Anyway I hope you enjoy it!

Prologue

"Don't go into the forest." Mama says. "Bad things happen there." She warns. "Don't ever go into the forest, for if you do, the vampires will get you."

"Vampires?"

"Yes, vampires, they are evil creatures that thrive for our blood."

"Why?"

"Because, they are hellish creatures that are neither dead nor alive, and to survive they must drink the blood of humans." She says. "Don't go into the forest." She repeats.

"You're not afraid to go into the forest are you?" The little boy sniggered.

"I am not!" I said angrily.

He started imitating a chicken and danced around me. "Serenity's a chicken! Serenity's a chicken!"

"Am not!" I yelled. "I'll prove it!" Before I knew it, I saw stomping into the forest angrily. By the time I calmed down, I realized I was lost and it was becoming dark. I shivered as a cold gust of wind blew by me and I backed up into a tree.

"You lost, little girl?" Suddenly, I felt hands on my shoulders and I screamed before jumping out of the man's grasp. The man was tall and lean, he looked normal, but his skin was deathly pale and there were dark circles under his eyes. "I'm lucky I found you just in time." He said as moved closer to me. He cupped my chin and stared into my eyes with his pitch black ones. His skin was as cold as ice and sent shivers down my spine. He sniffed me and smiled deviously. "So young and pretty. I can feel the blood running through your veins and can't wait to feel it running down my throat."

As he was descending his head to my neck and I was sure I was going to be a goner, he was pulled off of me. I opened my eyes to see a much taller man standing over him. Though he had saved me, I could tell he was one of them. Unlike the other man's eyes, his eyes were glowing red, and also unlike the other man, his skin wasn't as pale and looked a healthy tan color.

He started speaking another language to the other man and he sounded angry. The other man just nodded frantically and when he was finally free, he hastily left without looking back. Then the man walked up to me, his eyes still glowing red, and he leaned down so he was at eyelevel with me. His eyes changed to a midnight blue and his angry expression disappeared, and was replaced with a warm smile. "What is a girl like you doing out here so late at night?" He asked kindly.

"I got lost." I replied hesitantly.

"How about I walk you home? We wouldn't want another one of them to show up now would we?" He asked. I shook my head. He stood up and leant me his hand. Reluctantly, I took his hand and immediately felt a rush of electricity shooting up and down my spine. We walked through the forest together and soon we made it to the boarder of my village. He leaned down again and smiled at me. He pulled something out of his pocket and held it up to me. It was a beautiful necklace that had one small red rose pendant on it.

"It's beautiful." I said in awe.

"It is for you." He said.

"Really?" I asked. He nodded. "Can you help me put it on?" I turned around and lifted up my large mass of hair so he could put it on. As soon as it was on it glowed and grew smaller until it was a choker. I turned to ask him what happened but, he spoke first.

"Now everyone will know you are mine and no vampire will ever harm you again." He said. "When you come of age, Serenity, I will come back for you. Until then, my love, I bid you farewell." He kissed me then in a flash, he was gone.

I feel horrible for not writing my other stories, but I couldn't let this idea pass! But now my list of unfinished stories is longer…sigh…I put the blame solely on writer's block. Oh well, I hope you enjoyed it and if you did, please leave a review! Writers like to know what their readers think, so leave a review!
