I will try to keep the proper form of address such as Kufa-san, and Sensei ( I think it sounds better then just saying Kufa and teacher but that's just me) Also when Melody is thinking the words will be bold and italicized like this with a * at the beginning and end*. This chapter is short because it's just the introduction of the MC. {I hope other fans of this anime/light novel will soon start writing some FF on this awesome story I can't wait!}
Chapter One
'The Meeting'
Melody glanced impatiently towards the glass doors that led out to her small balcony.
"I'm sure they'll be here soon, Mistress." Said Myra, one of the four maids who were sent to accompany her when her father sent her away.
"I think I'll check and make sure nothings wrong." Melody replied calmly, pushing open the balcony doors and jumping up on the railing to get a better view of the road leading up to the gate of her house.
"Please be careful, mistress." Myra replied, more resigned then worried as all the maids had grown used to Melody's behavior.
As Melody glanced out along the road she heard something from beneath her and glanced down. She felt her eyes widen in real surprise as she found herself staring into the deep violet eyes of a familiar yet unfamiliar handsome face.
Blinking Melody decided the proper thing would be to go down and introduce herself so without hesitation she jumped from the balcony railing and flipped mid-air to land in a soft crouch on her feet. Brushing down her mini-skirt over her black work-out shorts, Melody glanced up at the man she knew to be Kufa Vampir and smiled.
"Hello. My name is Melody Angel. May I ask if you are to be my instructor?" Melody asked while giving a small courtesy as manners dictated.
"Hello. My name is Kufa Vampir and yes, I am your instructor. I look forward to working with you for the next three years." Kufa replied with a smile that looked real but Melody knew it was fake. Still she couldn't let on that she knew some things had to happen and acting like she believed the mask he presented was one of them so she smiled in reply.
"Mistress, I wish you would stop doing that!" Aimee, the head maid scolded Melody lightly causing her to give a small unrepentant grin.
"Don't worry Aimee I'm like a cat, I always land on my feet." Melody replied, feeling her grin widen at the look of exasperation on Aimee's face.
The chiming of the clock echoed in the silence that had fallen and Melody felt her smile falter as she realized what the chiming meant.
"Mistress, it's time for you to go to school. Please go get ready. Kufa-san, please look after milady, even while she's attending the academy." Aimee said and Melody acted surprised, letting her eyes widen slightly and confusion so show slightly on her face.
"What? You'll be coming with me to the academy Sensei?" Melody asked, directing her question and gaze to Kufa.
"Yes. Were you unaware of that? While I am in charge of your instruction, I am also your attendant so I have received special permission to enter the grounds of the academy." Kufa said, giving a small smile.
"O-oh. I see." Melody replied, pausing a second to make her hesitation believable before turning around and running back inside the house to grab her school bag keepin her head down so none of the maids could see the knowing smile that rose on her lips.
*And so it begins. Question is will Kufa fall in love with me like he did Melida's character or will I end up dying by his hand tonight?* Melody wondered as she walked to the Academy with Kufa following a foot behind her.
