Disclaimer: Thought I forgot about this, didn't ya? Well I didn't so, HA! Naruto does not, and most likely, never belong to me.

Chapter One: Prologue

People don't believe in supernatural creatures, they believe it is a figment of one's imagination-something false, something not real. But, they never thought, those ideas, those fairy-tale creatures, had to come from somewhere.

For those skeptical ones, you must be thinking, if they are real, why don't we see them? See, there are two kinds of creatures in the world: the bad and the good.

Believe it or not, back in the ancient times, the humans and the good creatures co-existed peacefully because back then, the humans believed in them. But as time passed, and technology progressed, humans began to lose the ability to believe in magic, and soon, magic and magical creatures were but fantasy to them. The good creatures went into hiding, casting illusions so the humans would not find them, for they knew, what the humans did not know and believe they feared, and they killed their fears. Not wishing for fighting, they vanished, and only to the few good humans did they reveal themselves.

But the evil creatures were not lucky. Having too much pride to hide themselves, they were forced to mingle with humans when they took their land. Why, if they were so evil, did they not attack the humans then? The reason was because they were not stupid. The humans, though they did not know at the time, had many of the vampires' few weaknesses.

And by the time they did find out, it was too late.

The sinister ones were forced to mingle, and, in doing so, had to destroy many of their weaknesses to adapt. The result is horrific, for now, vampires can go out into the sunlight when before even a touch of it would kill, wooden stakes cannot hurt them, and nor can garlic drive them away. Holy water was like regular water to them now, and fires were their slaves-it could not harm them. Crosses don't hurt them either.

In fact, they only had one weakness now-the strike of silver, pure silver, is still poison to them, and even so, they have found ways to touch pure silver temporarily.

This is because the buildings in which humans lived always allowed sunlight in one way or the other, and they'd had to adjust to that, by adjusting to sunlight. During the era when humans would build their houses out of wood, vampires had had to survive the wooden pieces that would sometimes fall from a patch in the house, and in doing so, became immune to them. During the Salem Witch trials, they'd had to adapt to getting sprayed with holy water, and too, became immune to pain from it. Fires often started later on, and they'd had to learn how to control it. They had to pass by Christian churches a lot of the time, and many people had crosses around their necks anyway, so the vampires had to get used to it, and soon, the crosses didn't bother them anymore. The only reason why they were still afraid of silver was because most of the "silver" in the human world were not pure, and so, had not been put to the test by it-yet.

They, along with the demons, grew beautiful, because they had had to trap prey easily and quickly and dispose of the corpses quickly before anyone should suspect them and kill them.

With time, they grew so lovely that all they had to do to get prey was wink at it, and then the prey would follow, no questions asked.

As a result of this, vampires were the most powerful creatures now, and would have ruled over the humans long ago-had it not been for the hunters.

The hunters used to be primarily humans that still believed in magical beings and wished to save their race. But demons soon realized that the vampires were dangerous and needed to be stopped before they could rule the world with their power, and almost all of them joined the hunter group as well. Because of this, there are many half-demons running about.

This story is about hunters and vampires. Enter with me, readers, into a world where you have to look underneath the underneath to survive, where every judgment is fatal, where every chance matters.

Enter with me, fellow readers, into a story of betrayal, friendship, trust, and ultimately, love.

For those who have weak hearts, leave, for this journey involves a great many heartbreaks and tears, and a prophecy that must be fulfilled.

Here is the story about the sacrifices used for eternal peace, and without further ado, please step from the room of reality, and through the door, into the endless world of fantasy.
