Talks took weeks before any checkpoint could start construction.
In that time, Nigel turned parliament into his own playroom by having the best fighters his world could produce, wait on him hand and foot.
His child like body and voice, was incredibly off putting too, to a room filled with adults.
However, when the first check points were up, humanity was fast to provide tracking bracelets and a system that documented when a Vampire came in and came out.
If they go beyond an hour of when they should be out, they had the right to call the police or army.
All the documented Vampires who were missing people, were made to wait so that they could be identified and sent on their way.
People were also encouraged to donate blood as well.
Some crazy people cued up to donate blood and some homeless did too once they found out they would be paid 50 cents.
50 cents was a lot in many countries.
The purer the blood, the higher the amount of money they would get.
It wasn't long before the first Vampires started arriving.
Each of them had to give their names before being detained, frisked for any weapons, a tracking chip was placed on them, they had to say how long they planned to stay, etc.
However, they did managed to get through into the world, after an hour.
And people quickly realised, they hadn't really changed that much, they were still very recognisable and it also helped they were sent to places they apparently belonged too.
Adults met their children.
Children met their parents.
Friends met friends.
People were shocked to find certain people walking completely fine because they were known to have a disability.
So many hearts lifted.
However, those hearts weren't lifted for long.
One question stopped them all in their tracks.
"Who are you?" They all said.
It was one question but it was repeated over a dozen times, spoken by many different lips.
It took them a while for them to realise they were serious.
Parents didn't recognise their own kids.
Kids didn't recognise their own parents.
Friends couldn't recognise each other.
And that wasn't the only thing, it soon spread like wild fire in the media that the Vampires couldn't remember their former lives expect for their names which left them emotionless.
It started a whole heap of nonsense to try and bring their memories back.
People were checked into therapists by their family's.
Hypnosis was preformed and people started camps that claimed to make them remember.
The Vampires just blinked and looked around, wondering what the hell was going on and not caring.
They didn't show much emotion but the public soon caught a glimpse of how far they would go for blood.
One man was seen trying to lure children near him with the promise of candy in broad daylight in exchange for a sip of their blood.
He didn't even blink when the police came and even tried the trick on them in the back seat.
He truly did not give two cents about what happening or that he could spend time in a jail cell.
And he wasn't the only one who would do this, Vampires were quickly known for trying to bargain or trick people for their blood.
The casual way they did it, sent chills down a normal spine.
Another difference was the way they looked at the people around them, as if they were predator ready to pounce.
The people they once know were no longer present in their eyes.
On the other hand, there were humans who offered their necks for free and even told them, they had a place to stay if they were running from the law.
That was certainly interesting.
However, despite this, not a single General attempted to cross over.
A person, the checkpoint people were all briefed on and secretly breathing signs of relief for.
That relief only lasted for 2 weeks before in the hour of 9, a white clothed figure came through and was dressed in such a way that proved he was a General.
In Tokyo Japan.
Tokyo checkpoint was understandably freaking out.
Yashiro smiled at their stunned faces when he went through, he already knew he was Japanese so he walked through and sat on the bench waiting to be detained.
It didn't take long before a group come to him and escorted him to a room where he was given his tracking chip and they had to confirm his identity.
He immediately got a reaction when they heard his name.
"Ooh, you know me?" he said, "How delightful"
They all stared, ever since this checkpoint came up they had seen nothing but emotionless vampire after the next, that's why the fact he could smile was very shocking.
"Well, how long do you plan to stay here Mister Yukihito?" said the man.
"It depends." Said Yashiro. "Give me about 4 hours. I want to see if I'm really that famous here. I've come to have fun and greet you cute little humans"
Cute? Everybody thought.
He was quiet the weirdo.
"We'll, we can pull up where you work on the computer" said the man. "However, your condo would be quiet dusty and you need to apply to be able to take permanent residence here." gesturing to a massive amount of paperwork beside him.
"You people sure like paperwork" he said, "How cute. I'll sign and head to my old work. I want to see some old faces" and the he stripped down of his own free will, like he was putting on a show.
Everybody was speechless.
The frisking process, he had made it as uncomfortable as possible for everybody involved before getting handed back his clothes and was pushed out of the door.
He was somebody else's problem now.
The look on the people of Tokyo faces when they saw a Vampire clad in white strutting down the street was one for the ages.
The journey to Lory Majestic Entertainment was an uneventful one.
What used to be a plain smart looking man with glasses, had been blessed with the Vampire touch, he was now amazingly good looking.
He got attention from both men and women.
He asked for directions from some high school girls and all of them wouldn't stop blushing to give him a straight answer but at last he found directions only to find banners that said a party was apparently going on and in the morning and apparently he was no invited.
So at a speed, too fast to see, he jumped and climbed through an open window into LME.
When people inside caught sight of him, it was already too late.
He found the venue and was strutting in like he owned the place.
He stuck out like a sore thumb in the middle of suits and dresses.
People turned to literally stare at him.
"Oh, I love being Japanese. A full blown party at 10 in the morning" he said, "I love it. I love it."
"Mister Y-Yashiro?" He heard.
He turned his head to respond and saw a delicious looking girl with orange hair and golden eyes.
"Oh, wow. Haven't see you around in ages." he answered with a 'I don't quiet know who you are so I'll do good enough and hope you don't notice', answer.
Kyoko eyes were so round, it could have popped out.
The clean cut man that was still fresh in her mind, miraculously transformed into this good-looking person with pointy ears and fangs in noble like clothes.
Yashiro noticed a tall man who had black hair but was beside her all protective like.
He clearly recognised the danger while she did not.
"And who is this?" said, Yashiro looking at Ren, who hadn't seen him 2 years. "Your boyfriend?"
The reaction he got, made his smile grew wider, he had seen them both freeze before she said.
"He's my Sampai" said, Kyoko. "You used to be the manager for both of us. This Ren Tsuruga"
"Uh, Huh" he said, as if he was watching drama with imaginary popcorn in hand.
"What is that look?" she said.
"Uh, huh" He continued to say, his mouth getting much wider as if he was laughing at an inside joke. "So I managed both of you?" before he said, to Ren. "By the way your really tall, how tall are you?"
Ren mouth almost disappeared, as everybody watched.
And that's when Lory Takarada came over, since he did crash his party after all.
But when he came over he was stunned by how amazingly good looking Yashiro was now and slowed down to stare before Yashiro suddenly turned and gave him a smile.
"By the way, old man. How long are you going to stare for?" said, Yashiro to the man, who once gave him his pay checks and pawned Ren onto him.
So it was true, even Yashiro has no memory, Lory thought while everybody was shocked that he dared speak to the president like that and he didn't recognise him.
"My name is Lory Takarada, the president and founder of Lory Majestic Entertainment" said, Lory reintroducing himself.
"Yashiro Yukihito" he said, before he said. "However, my official title is General Yashiro Yakihito"
What?
General!?
Everybody was shocked.
What did he mean by General!
Suddenly they all heard. "General, these humans deserve to die, how dare they speak to you so casually"
And then appearing beside him was the cutest floating bunny they had ever seen.
He stole the hearts of females everywhere in the room, including Kyoko own who's cheeks and eyes were flushed.
"Its okay, Xana. They used to know me." said, Yashiro, he couldn't even remember why he chose this bunny but he could see everybody reaction to it.
The bunny pouted and suddenly felt himself being poked and turned around to see a brown haired chest nut girl who looked to be 10 touching his fur.
"Its so soft" said, Maria Takarada, while every woman was envious.
"Back off, human" said, Xana. "Do you know who I am? I am basically General Yashiro inventory and communication device"
All the while he was ranting, Maria hadn't stop rubbing and started rubbing behind his ear and Xana fell to the pleasure of it.
In seconds, she was petting him in her arms.
She subdued him so quickly! Everybody thought.
"Now, I know why I picked him. He's cute" said, Yashiro.
In his mind, he thought of using it to lure females and children to him and charge in blood to pet him.
"I'm glad you like him" said, Yashiro smiling faintly at her.
"Did you come here, for your old job?" said, Lory, going to ask about the General part later.
"Maybe, its only been 3 months" He said.
Huh?
There was a long silence in the room, as they slowly came to terms with what he had just said and realised he was serious.
"Its been 2 years, Yashiro" said, Lory.
"Its been 3 months" He said.
There was more silence.
"Yashiro, its been 2 years" Said, Lory.
There was more silence again.
"Really?" he said, and everybody worried his memory loss was a lot worse then they thought.
But then Xana said, through hugs. "The Vampire world and the Human world follow a different flow of time to each other. In the Vampire realm, it has been 3 months since the Vampire realm was occupied. 2 years here"
Everybody was stunned.
"Hmm, so I can't just slot back in." said, Yashiro. "We'll do you have anymore job offers? The life of a General isn't exactly exciting."
"We'll, you could model" said, Lory, making everybody blink.
What?
And then everybody really looked at him, and found him very pleasing to the eye now.
"Modelling..." said, Yashiro. "Alright I'll do it. Several hours in front of the camera. Getting naked and strutting around, sounds like fun"
What?
Many people bent over in shock.
Getting naked and strutting around?
Now everybody know, Yashiro had truly lost it.
Was this really Yashiro?
"By the way, you will pay me in blood right?" said, Yashiro to the now stunned President and everybody else.
If his fellow Vampire heard him, they would have shot him because of his greed.
"You want to be paid in Blood?" said, Lory just to make sure he hadn't misheard.
"Of course" said, Yashiro. "I've a Vampire. Why on Earth would I need human money for? Your world treats me like a bomb every minute I'm here. Plus my world is cheaper and more luxurious"
There was a long and uncomfortable silence as they all realised he did not consider himself as a human being at all on a deep level.
He did not consider this world, his world at all.
Should they call this madness or something else?
