*CHAPTER ONE: SHUICHI MINAMINO

*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

Shuichi Minamino was an ordinary young man at the age of fifteen during the time he lived in a place that was soon to be Japan's capital, Tokyo, around the late 1600s. He was tall and lean; he had brilliant, emerald-green eyes, and had long hair that was the color of a crimson-red. He had a face that many women would hopelessly fall in love for, a face that many would do anything for as well. But he never accepted at least one woman. He keeps on saying that there is a woman out there, somewhere, to be his. By this, he was actually lonely. A young man with a face to die for, was actually lonesome. Even though he has many friends to hang out with, he still felt lonely. He wanted someone to be with him, someone to call his own, someone to be called his lover. But there was no woman that he thought was right for him at the moment, not until he met the 'One'.

But that was his loss...

* * *

Shuichi remained that way until one night, he heard a loud noise outside of his window. Even though it was raining heavily that night, he still looked out of the window and saw the newly built house that was near his home, being filled with new furniture and with a new occupant. The boy watched curiously as the furniture was being brought in until he saw the owner of the new house. The owner was a young woman probably around the age of nineteen or so. At that moment, when Shuichi first laid eyes on her, he had instantly fallen in love with her. She was beautiful to him: she had long, black hair, with dark, brown eyes, flawless pale-colored skin, and seemed to be very intelligent for her age. She was everything that Shuichi could ever want in a woman. A perfect type of girl that Shuichi thought would never come true. The young woman's name was Kikyou Higurashi (A/N: I needed a last name!).

Even though Kikyou was beautiful, there were strange things about her. She sometimes only come out during the evenings, her dislike of the sun, and her overwhelmingly fondness of the color red. Curious by this, Shuichi felt like snooping around a bit within the wealthy young lady's home. Even if he hadn't really properly introduced himself to her yet, he still felt like snooping. He didn't know back then that 'Curiosity kills the cat'.

He went over to her home one night, hoping to see if she wasn't around. He was a quiet as a mouse, but when he peered though one of the large windows, he let out a cry of terror. Shuichi was surely wrong about the fact that Kikyou wasn't home, for she was there in her house.

Frantic, the young man ran blindly into the woods that were near him, trying to run as far away from Kikyou. He immediately forgot that his home was only a couple of hundred meters away from him.

Once he was deep within the thick forest, he then stopped to catch his breath and hopefully rest there for a few minutes. He was tired from running as fast he could. Shuichi turned around to see if Kikyou was following him, but luckily, to his surprise, she wasn't. A sigh of relief came out of Shuichi's mouth, happy that she wasn't there. But when he turned around once more again, Kikyou was right there in front of him! He literally froze on the spot; he was unable to move away. Kikyou walked closer to him.

"Shuichi, I presume?" she asked quietly, yet by that, her question sounded deadly.

"Uh...Uh...Y-Y-Yes...M-M-Miss...." he stammered. Shuichi couldn't help but feel afraid of her. What he saw back then was horrible to him. She bit some other young man that he used to know on the neck and drank his blood!

"Oh, then I was right," she said as she smiled at him.

"H-H-How do y-y-you know my n-n-name?" he asked with the sound of fear in his tone of voice.

"How do I know you?" she repeated. "Well, one part is, I've seen you watching me whenever I step foot out of my home. Following me to the market during the evening, hoping that I wouldn't notice you right behind me. And another part is that I can read your mind as easily as I can read a book," she said. "By reading your mind, I now know of your past, your childhood, what you have gone through in life and....Your thoughts..."

Shuichi gulped. 'This woman can read my thoughts?' he asked himself mentally.

"Yes, I can read your thoughts. Didn't you just hear me say that to you?" she said, irritated by Shuichi's ignorance of what she had explained to him. Kikyou began to talk again. "Did you know that interrupted my dinner?" she asked.

"D-Dinner? That young man back there was your 'dinner'?"

"You are correct," she answered simply. "He was my dinner."

"W-W-What....Are you?"

Kikyou laughed at his petty question. "I am a hunter," she said. "An immortal, a predator who preys on the weak, a creature who hunts just to drink the savoring taste of human blood," she smiled again as she bared her pearly-white fangs at the frightened young boy. "In other words, I am a vampire."

"Vampire?" he asked slowly. "B-But...They don't exist." The word 'vampire' was a little bit familiar to him. He had heard of them, but had only thought they were mythical beasts, creatures that were only make- believe stuff used to scare small children. But now he knows that they are real, because one was right in front of him.

Kikyou smirked. She enjoyed seeing the fear that was written all over Shuichi's eyes when he now found out that vampires are now real.

When Shuichi saw her fangs, he let out another cry of terror. He went down on his knees and begged for his life, hoping that the vampire would please spare his life. Kikyou pitied him. He has such a young soul; he was so full of life and innocence. She agreed to spare his life, thinking that if she changed him, he would be with her. And plus, he would be able to keep her secret away from the humans that lived in the town. Kikyou didn't tell Shuichi what he would be agreeing to, but he did so anyway without knowing the price, just because he wanted to live.

Kikyou looked into Shuichi's emerald-green eyes. He stared back at her; he couldn't take his eyes off of her own eyes. He tried to look away, but he couldn't move. It seemed as if her long gaze had hypnotized him. Inside of his head, he heard the words, "sleep" and "relax" over and over. He was falling asleep; his eyelids were getting heavy for him to keep them up. But still, he was capable of standing up straight.

She then went behind him and moved away the red hair that was covering up the side of his neck. When the hair was brushed aside, she began to stroke his neck lovingly for a while with her hand and saw the vein that was soon to be drained from blood. "Don't be afraid, Shuichi," she said. "It won't hurt." As she had said this, she bent her head down and pierced his throat with her razor-sharp fangs. Shuichi went limp from the pain. Kikyou then began to drink his mortal life away.

When Kikyou was done, she lied down the sleeping Shuichi on the ground, then made a small wound on her wrist. A few drops of her red blood started to appear. She brought her wrist closer to Shuichi's mouth. He was weak, but began to feed. He was hungry, hungry like a baby wanting more milk.

After he was done drinking the warm liquid, he lied back once more and felt a sharp pain within him. He was beginning to feel himself dying, he felt like he was losing his humanity, his life and his soul.

His heart began to beat more slowly and his pulse slowed down as well, until both his heart and pulse had eventually stopped beating. No longer will his heart beat again...

A/N: Okay, so how was it? This was my first time writing a fic about vampires so it might not be a bit good at first, but hopefully it'll get better during the future chapters or so. ^_^ And the part of Kikyou having the last name of "Higurashi", I putted that in b/c I needed a last name for her. But anyway, if you want me to continue adding in more chapters to this, then you've gotta send me in some reviews! I will put in chapter 2, IF I receive 5 or more reviews for this chapter! Okay? So...please review!!!!!! ^_^

Byes!
