A loud knock on the door made her bolt out of bed. Eyes still dazed with sleep, she look at her nightstand and saw the numbers reflected back at her. Grunting, she threw the sheets to the side, slid off her bed and made her way to the door.

As she reached the door the incessant pounding had come to an abrupt stop. For a second she thought that perhaps they had left. She opened the door.

Hands tuck in her pockets, and a hoodie over her head Natsuki greeted Nao with a sheepish grin.

"Good morning Na-."

The door was slammed shut.

"Hey! Thats no way to treat a friend! Open Up!" Natsuki shouted from outside the apartment door, knocking even louder than before.

Her hand still on the door handle Nao's eye started to twich with annoyence. She was completely awake know. Awake and pissed. 'I can't believe I got up for...this!'

She stalked back to her room intent on ignoring the girl outside. She figured that whatever Natsuki had to say wasn't that important.

"Fujino needs to keep her dog on a leash." Nao muttered before laying down on her bed.

She looked at her clock. '3:17 am. I can still get four hours of sleep before work.'

Pulling the covers over her she settled down to sleep, not noticing that the knocking had stopped.

Crouching by the window, Natsuki watched Nao's chest rise and fall.

She had come in through the window after Nao had closed the door on her face. She was not expecting that. But it was something Nao would do, at least to her. Unfortunately, because of that, it had ruined her plan and she had to find another way in.

Nao stirred in her sleep.

Natsuki stood and walked to the side of the bed running her fingers through her hair.

She began to discard her parka and jeans until she stood naked in the room.

Crouching next to the bed, emerald orbs watched as Nao slowly awoke from her sleep.

When Nao woke up her eyes met with familiar emerald pools. Yet there was something not quite right about those familiar eyes. And it was only after her eyes cleard that she noticed what it was and moved as far and as fast as she could from the creature infront of her.

"What the hell!" she yelled from across the room, the thing following her with its eyes.

She stood againts the wall, breathing hard, the door a few feet from her. She dare not look away from the beast, afraid that it would charge at her if she let her guard down.

For know, it only stood across from her, unmoving, looking at her with those eyes.

A million question ran through her head. How had it gotten into her room? Where did it come from? Was she going to die? Why does it feel familiar. But more importantly, 'What the hell is it?!'

It appeared to be somewhat human since it stood on its hind legs. But the fur, claws and snout made it perfectly clear it was not human.

And it, was still looking at her with hungry emerald eyes.

The creature shifted its weight seeming to be preparing for something. Nao weigh her options. She could make a run for the door, it wasn't that far away and she was fast enough she could close the door on it before it tried to chase after her. Then again, she didn't know how the creature would react to it. Would it anger it.

'It already looks angry.' Nao thought.

She didn't have time to decide though, as the creature leapt for her with a fierce growl. She made a run for it. Only grabbing the door handle before her body was shoved roughly againts the door. The impact causing her to let out a choked scream.

Held againts the door she was unable move let alone think. But she was able to feel. And she felt cold.

She looked down to see a hand protruding from her abdomen, and it was then that she realized why she felt cold.

'I...don't...'

Author's notes:

I'm pretty sure i made alot of grammar mistakes BUT, i have an excuse for that and it is...i'm very sleepy.

yes, i have stayed up all night trying to write this chapter out just so yall can read it so i hope yall enjoy the read.

It was a really horrible experience for me. I really didn't know what to do with it to began with, but thanks to syntherticSkye's awesome idea ( which i really appreciate by the way) i had some clue as to what i was doing - but not much.

so I've wrote it and read it then re-wrote it and re-read it and after doing that for about a week i have come up with this...and i still don't like it.

but it aint going to get any better so i said to myself

'better just post it, see what the readers think'

and so i have.

It was hard, but i guess all first chapters are right? I hope so, because i feel like i could have done better. (sigh)

By the way syntheticSkye, can you guess what my story is going to be like.
