Top Note: Wow! 5 reviews already? You guys are the best! Here's a chapter for ya! XD
"A-Auntie Amber? W-What are you doing!"
"Oh hush Seiren! You need to build endurance!" Auntie Amber said as she dropped me from mid air.
"AAAAHHHHH! DAMN IT AUNTIE AMBER!" I screamed as I plummeted down to the earth before.
Man do I hate my monthly visits. I looked down to the ground that seemed to get closer and closer. If I don't brace myself soon, I'm going to have some concussion. I turned to my back as I fell downwards. I forced my eyes shut as the air became for ragged. I heard a slightly agitated sigh as I heard a swooshing sound. Something grabbed the front of my shirt and flung me to the side. I cracked open my eyes to see…a tree.
WHOA! WHAT THE-
A TREE?
I bumped against each branch inside that tree, sending small 'damns' with each crack. I hit my head on a thick branch and fell to my back. My eyes turned swirly as my pressure broke all branches that I landed on. I finally managed to meet the floor, falling on all of the rough branches and leaves. I landed with a loud thud, considering I just fell from a hundred feet in the air, I made a small dent in the land underneath me.
"Ow…" I mumbled as I sat up rubbing my head. "I hate my monthly visits…"
"Why didn't you just land on your feet?" Auntie Amber asked agitated. I sprung up from my pile of branches and leaves and glared at her.
"I'M A GIRL, NOT A FREAKING CAT!" I shouted. Auntie Amber sighed.
"You aren't a girl, you are not a cat, you are a vampire." Auntie Amber said with her arms crossed.
I groaned as I glared at the calm woman. "Can I at least keep the 'female' part?" I asked.
"Alright, I give you that much." she said as she started walking off to the direction of a wooden house.
"Where you going?" I asked.
She sighed as she looked back at me. "Home. Where else?" she said and then pinched the bridge of her nose. "Now come child, you're monthly visit isn't done yet."
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
I growled as I sat on the cold metal table. I always hated examining tables. Auntie Amber had slipped into her white lab coat and was now observing her needles, probably deciding which one to stab me with. She put down the needle and turned to me with a small hammer you usually see when you go to the doctors. She hit me in the knee with it making my foot jerk forward and kick the tray that was in front of it. All the stuff that was on it flew upwards and Auntie Amber swiftly caught all items with ease in a blink of an eye. She stood up and wrote something on her clip board.
"Reflexes seem to be in order." She said as she put the clip board down. "Open up."
I groaned as I opened up my mouth letting her see my teeth. She looked inside as touched where my fangs are supposed to be and sighed. "You still haven't drank any blood have you?" she asked.
I shut my mouth as I looked off to the side stubbornly. "I told you. I'm not drinking any."
"You'll get weaker if you do." she said looking at me impatiently.
"So? It's not like I want to fight or even be a vampire…" I said looking at the wall with a bored expression.
"If you don't fight then you'll die for sure." she said and sighed. "That's the whole reason I turned you into one of us."
"So I didn't die. Yeah, I got it." I said.
She sighed again. "Your blood lust will grow stronger and stronger and then you'll snap. Then, maybe even I won't be able to stop you."
"I'll make sure that'll never happen." I said glaring at her. "If I don't drink any blood, it doesn't necessarily mean I'll go on a rampage. It just means that I'll get weaker and soon enough be at a regular human state."
She sighed again and looked at her clip board. "Reflexes are good, fangs not in yet, blood state: nothing, endurance: running out, but fine."
"You know, girls my age have their 'Aunt Flow' coming to visit. Not have a monthly check up with their vampire Auntie Amber." I said staring at the blond woman wearily.
"Must you be stubborn? I said it before, you are not a girl, you are a vampire." she said annoyed.
"A female one if you might add." I said pointing at her. I may not be a human girl, but I still like to keep my 'female' in this situation somehow.
She rolled her eyes as she walked to her refrigerator she kept just for me. Even though we're vampires, it doesn't mean we don't eat human food. We just have a certain diet. She rummaged through it and then pulled something out. She tossed it to me and it landed in my lap. I looked down and found…
A blood packet.
"AHHH! WHAT THE CRAP WAS THAT?" I shouted as I threw the packet of blood back at her.
She swiftly caught it and then brushed a curly lock of hair out of her face. "Quit complaining please. You need to drink something. I got that from work for you."
"Work?" I asked. Then it clicked in my head. "THAT'S JUST SICK AUNTIE AMBER! TAKING BLOOD FROM PEOPLE WHEN THEY THINK IT'LL GO TO PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY NEED IT! THAT'S SICK!"
She sighed as she glared at me with her violet eyes. "If you don't drink something, you will surely go insane." she persisted.
"I'm not going to drink any damn it!" I yelled and hopped off of the metal table. I grabbed my bag and black trench coat. "I'm going over to Mustang's office."
Auntie Amber sighed as she saw me walk out the door. "Get some blood please!"
"NO WAY!"
XoXo… Mustang's office …XoXo (End of Seiren's POV)
"MUSTANG!"
Mustang sighed as he heard the shouting voice. Ever since he helped her, he's always been getting an ear full of yelling. And the yelling increased with each month. But he knew exactly why.
"Mustang!" she yelled as she swung open the doors.
"Colonel." Lieutenant Hawkeye said as she shot him a look. "You did remind her didn't you?"
"….No, I didn't." he replied as he pinched the bridge of his nose. "damn it…"
"Mustang! Why the hell didn't you remind me!" the raven haired girl yelled as she stood in front of his desk with her hands on her hips. "I was in the middle of my research and she dragged me off!"
"Shouldn't you remember on your own?" Mustang asked. "It's not like it's something new, Seiren."
Seiren growled as she looked off to the side stubbornly. "I know that it shouldn't be too surprising. But still." she grumbled.
"Oh yeah," Mustang started as he looked at a piece of paper. "There's something that was brought to my attention."
Seiren flinched. "W-What is it?"
"At a local blood drive, ten pints of blood were reported missing. Do you know anything about that?" Mustang asked.
Seiren sweat dropped as she looked down at her feet. "Uh…well…"
"Amber Smith took them sir." Hawkeye said. Seiren turned to the woman.
"Way to sell me out Aunt Riza!" Seiren said.
Riza sighed as she looked down at her paperwork. Havoc raised an eyebrow at the girl. "When did you start calling her Aunt, Seiren?"
"Huh?" Seiren asked as she turned to the man. "Well, I guess it became a habit for me. After all, she is the only other girl I can go to."
"She does have a point." Fuery said.
"Oh, yes." Hawkeye said just remembering something. "Sir, the Elric brother's are in central today."
Mustang groaned at the comment. "So Fullmetal's coming in today is he?" Mustang asked.
"Who?" Seiren asked.
"Oh, yeah. We haven't told you about the Elric's yet have we?" Havoc asked. Seiren shook her head. "You see, there's a boy named Edward Elric. He's about your age I think. He joined the military when he was twelve."
"Twelve!" Seiren said shocked. "He joined the military that young! What did he go for?"
"He became a State Alchemist." Havoc said. "He goes by the title 'Fullmetal'. He's said to be a prodigy, his younger brother not too far behind."
"A prodigy eh?" Seiren asked. "That young he started alchemy? I'm impressed. I never would have thought someone like that would sell his soul to the military."
"What are you trying to say Seiren?" Mustang asked.
Seiren turned to him. "You know what I mean, Mustang. If anything, I'd be the one who hates the military more than anyone. You know that." Seiren said seriously.
"I know fairly well, Seiren."
BN: Meh, I got lazy at the end... :P Promise I'll do better!
Oh, and there were some concerns for the pairings of this story. Some people wanted an EdXOc, others wanted and AlXOc, so I've decided with this:
A parental RoyXOc and a love triangle: EdXOcXAl.
Does that make it better? Until next chap! =:D
