I felt like I was on fire. Fire was spreading all through my body. I was on the floor screaming. It wouldn't stop! I thought that I should have died by now but I didn't. It was just constant fire. I don't know how long I was on fire but finally, only my throat was on fire. I could hear a voice. It was Riley's voice. I wanted to kill him for doing this to me! Why had he done this? I tried to remember when I met him, but it was all blurry. I realized I had my eyes closed, so I opened them. The first thing I saw was Riley smiling. He was still beautiful but, not as beautiful as I remember, even though I can't really remember that. Then I saw a light bulb,and I actually saw dust particles. That's neat! I thought.

"I guess I should bring you to the others." Riley said to me. I was still so mad at him! Plus, he scared me. I wasn't expecting him to say anything. I growled at him. WHOA! I just growled. and it sounds like a lion or tiger growling I thought. How weird. I decided to say something to Riley about putting me on fire, but I didn't know how to say that right.

"Why did you put me on fire?" I asked calmly. Then shock overtook me. My voice sounded sing-songy. That's so cool!

"I didn't, she did. She turned you into a vampire." Riley said. Okay, a vampire? Is he playing with me? That's the stupidest thing I have ever heard. But yet, it sounded true. I could still feel fire in my throat but it felt like I was thirsty, not like I was actually on fire.

"Who is she?" I asked.

"You and all the other Newborns will call her Her or She. She created you. Now I need to explain a few things to you before I show you to the others. First, when I tell you to hunt I expect you to be back before sunrise." He paused.

"Hunt? Why do you want me back before sunrise? And why does my throat BURN?" I threw questions at him.

"Your throat burns because you need human blood to fulfill it. That's why you need to hunt. You need to hunt humans. Why I need you back in the garage before sunrise is because you will burn and be destroyed if you're in the sunlight. Burning like you just were." Riley said. I shuddered. I never want to burn like that again.

"Also," Riley continued." You are smart. I don't want the other newborns to kill you, so keep your head down and stay away from the others."

Riley let me hunt before we went to the place with the others, whoever they were. Riley told me to go for the homeless and druggies. I went for a human that smelled like they had drugs. The blood tasted good, but it wasn't clean. I think it would taste better if they didn't take drugs. Oh,well. I have to deal with it. Riley finally led me to a house and brought me to the basement. There were about fifteen vampires in one tiny basement. Some looked upset that Riley had brought me, others looked like they couldn't care less.

Riley brought me to a couch and told me to sit down. Seeing all these vampires scared me, even though I was one of them now. A really handsome vampire guy came by and introduced himself.

"I'm Diego. What's your name?" he said.

"I'm Emily. Nice to meet you Diego," I said. He smiled. I guess he was looking at my supermodel blond locks. Stupid curly blond hair. I looked into Diego's eye's and realized that they were red. I looked around, and saw that everyone had red eyes. I should have noticed but I was too nervous about meeting the 'newborns' to notice everything. I wonder what she is looking around for. I heard Diego say.

"I was looking around at everyone. I just realized everyone has red eyes. Do I have red eyes, too?" I said.

"What? Yes, you do have red eyes," he said.

"What do you mean what? Didn't you say 'I wonder what she is looking around for'?" I asked him.

"No but I thought it." He told me. Can she really read minds? I have never heard of anyone that can read minds before. I heard Diego say again.

"Yes. I think I can read minds." I whispered, hoping no one else but Diego could hear.

"That's neat. Can you only hear me or everyone in the room?" He asked me. Now that I concentrated I did hear other voices. They all were thinking about blood, except for Diego.

"Yeah, everyone is thinking 'bout blood." I told him. Man, now I am thirsty again. Diego and I went our separate ways. I decided to read the four books that were in my backpack, which was still on my back.

Review please!
