Blood & Innocence: The Blue-Eyed Vampire.

Chapter One

The thing about the idea that vampires exist was not ridiculous. Of course not.

If people like her existed, then why not that other kind? Heck, probably even werewolves and mermaids existed. They just hid themselves so well that they only came up in stories.

She sighed as she looked up at the full moon shining brightly upon her. She felt serene as she gazed into the bright moon. It reflected perfectly on her green orbs. She took a few strands of her pink hair and played with it.

"Mommy! She's got pink hair!"

"Don't look at her, let's go. Hurry up!"

A lot of people in her village avoided her. Not just because her hair was the odd one out upon the people, but because of what she was capable of. At age nine, she was considered one of the smartest people in the village –being able to pass the national exam, although she chose not to further her study-, at the same time she was the girl who single-handedly took out the thieves who broke into her house. She didn't just harm them.

She had managed to kill them.

How she came to have the strength to do so, no one knew. But that was the very reason why people avoided her. They were all afraid of what she was capable of.

She stared at her pale hands and sighed.

"Oi, Sakura, get your ass down here!"

She rolled her eyes at the familiar voice. She rolled over and looked down from the edge of the roof she'd been laying on.

"What is it, shishou?" she asked the woman with blond ponytailed hair with oversized breasts and a teal colored rhombus on her forehead. She glared at Sakura with her light brown eyes. "Why do you look at me like that?"

"You are aware that you're vulnerable if you do that moon gazing of yours right?" the woman sighed. "People would come and try to kill us, Sakura, because we're different. There is not much of our kind out there in this world. You need to not treat this whole thing so lightly anymore."

"I know that, Tsunade-shishou," Sakura sighed as she jumped off the roof.

"Come on, let's go and sleep. I need to get to work early tomorrow," Tsunade walked into the red tower that was also their home.

To her advantage, the person who was in charge of the whole village (the Hokage) was exactly the same as hers. Tsunade took her in and trained her to control her power. Of course things had been slightly different in the village since she'd save so many lives from her ability to heal people that she mastered from her training.

But there would always be those random people out there that had something against her and her shishou and these people would always try to kill them.

Every time, though, they'd fail. Either because the secret police called the ANBU got rid of them, or because they themselves got rid of those people.

"By the way, Sakura, we'd have a few newcomers arriving tomorrow morning. Take care of them," Tsunade said as she walked toward her bedroom. Sakura stopped in front of her own door and looked at her shishou confusedly.

"Me? Why me?" she asked. Businesses like this were usually handled by Shizune, Tsunade's past lover's niece and her trusted secretary. Tsunade turned to her and right away, she knew the newcomers might not be the usual ones. Meaning, they might possess a threat that Shizune couldn't handle.

"Just be careful tomorrow, Sakura," Tsunade said, her eyes grew wild with worry. For a woman with no child, and then finally able to find someone who had the same ability like her Sakura was almost a daughter to this woman. "I choose you not just because of your capability, but also because you might know them… well, better than any of us."

"And that's because?" Sakura eyed her teacher suspiciously.

"Because I've a feeling that they're those immortals," Tsunade said.

Those immortals. Those very words sent ice throughout Sakura's body. At the same time that she was frightened, she was actually excited. There were more of them out there.

More…

Of what they called Vampires.
