Akira Shane was just as normal as anybody else. She loved going shopping, going clubbing, and getting drunk and high. She loved hanging out with her friends, she loved being wanted, and she loved taking bubble baths. Akira loved getting manicures and singing in the shower. Akira was just as normal as anybody else except for one huge difference.
She could grow fangs at will, she had blood cravings, and she was a vampire. Akira was a vampire, but she didn't live in Transylvania or anything. She lived in Pennsylvania - close to Pittsburgh – with her parents and her younger sister. Her parents were oblivious to her differences. She was born a vampire, but her powers didn't start to show until she turned fifteen.
All her life, she was always considered just a little bit odd. When she was little and got hurt, she would lick the blood away. She was always considered a night person until she was diagnosed with insomnia. She was always awake yet always asleep at the same time. She also always had dental problems too, so her parents made her get braces and soon after getting them off she became a vampire.
She first realized she was a vampire when a strange guy stopped her on the street. He was tall and pale with piercing green eyes which seemed so trusting. He was wearing all black from head to toe, or at least from what she could see. He said, "Do you remember me?" Strangely enough, Akira did somewhat remember him. From what, she had no idea. She had never met him before, but he introduced himself. "I'm Hunter, and I know we've never met before, but we need to talk." Akira thought he was crazy, but as she looked into his eyes, the idea wasn't as crazy as she first thought it had seemed.
"Okay, I'm -" but she was interrupted.
"You're Akira Shane. Today is your fifteenth birthday."
Akira's face registered shock. "H-how did you know that?"
"I know you Akira, but you'll soon remember me if you just have this talk with me."
Akira hesitated, but she answered, "Okay…"
