Dream. "Speking", 'thoughts'

Chapter 2 the Present

12 years later

…..And with that the car drove away, leaving me broken alone on the snow covered ground.
"KANA-NII! NOOO!
I woke with a shout and sat up in my bed with my hand outstretched.
'Shit', I thought and banged my head at the wall behind me. 'How was that possible? Even after 12 years, after he left me there in the middle of the road, I had nightmares of that night. Pathetic! I should move on and not wait…..for HIM!'
With that thought I threw my blanket back and got out of bed. I took my clothes and went into the bathroom. Fortunately my 'Parents' weren't up yet. Now I could enjoy my shower without getting shouted at.

After I finished I went downstairs and made breakfast for Sakura and Souta. I made it perfect, so that they could not say anything about it. I am seriously tiered of it! All things I do, doesn't matter what, I make them wrong. I mean seriously? I'm just a human…..hmm sorry vampire. I make mistakes, I'm not perfect! But no I can't make mistakes…I'm not allowed to.
Just as I made my way to the door, to finally get out of this hell hole I heard a shout.
"SHIN!" 'Souta'
'Damn' I cursed 'Naturally!'
"Yes?" I shouted back
Souta came down the stairs, looked at the breakfast table, that I just set and glared at me. I had a really bad feeling about this!
"Something wrong?" I asked timidly and looked at the table to make sure that I didn't forget something.
"If something is wrong? IF SOMETHING IS WRONG! YES, as a matter of fact something is wrong!" He shouted at me and approached me slowly. 'God, I'm a vampire and not deaf.' I thought but took a step back. When he was in one of his moods it was the best not to be in reach.
"I tell you what's wrong! YOU! All the problems that we have are your fault! No wonder your brother didn't want you anymore!" I flinched away and bowed my head, so that my bangs covered my eyes.

I didn't want to accept it but the last comment had hit home. I felt the tears that threatened to fall, but I held them back. I would not cry in front of him! I will not be weak!

"Oh? Nothing to say have yah! You are pathetic and your brother will not come and get you. Why should he? He is free of his responsibility, because of us. And now get out and don't come back till I call you. You sorry excuse of a living being! With that he punched me in the gut and threw me out of the house.
I coughed and stood up with a groan.

'Stupid! You needed to ask if something was wrong!' I scowled at myself. I tried to go a step but needed to take hold of the garden fence so I don't fall down. 'Argh that punch was harder than I first guessed.

' But I needed to get away from here before he saw me standing here.' With that I let go of the fence and made my way toward the subway. I didn't know where I should go. I had no friends and didn't go to school. My guardians didn't see the need for me to go to school, as I was a Genius and it was troublesome to spend so much money at someone who doesn't need it anyway.

On a short notice I decided to drive with a bus to the next town and try my luck there.
So now I stood at the bus stop and waited.
'I wonder how much it will cost. Argh shit, I hope I have enough!' I just had 10€, so I hoped it was enough.

I just needed to get away from here.

I couldn't be here any longer, to wait anymore. I mean what's the sense of waiting for someone that didn't show up in 12 years or wrote a letter to let you know how it's going or who didn't even care rudimental enough to look if you okay or how you are threaded there. 'Okay Shin, don't go down there." I chided myself.

At that moment the bus stopped in front of me and therefore pulled me efficiently form my dark thoughts.
I got in and paid the ticket. I gave a sigh of relief that I had enough.
So I strode down the aisle and sat in a vacant seat at the window. I let my thoughts wander while I looked out of the window and gazed at the sliding scenery.

Flashback

"I promise I will come for you! I will not abandon you, Shin." Liar! You LIAR! How could you abandon me, after you promised me that you wouldn't!

I had again the nightmare of that night 12 years ago. I saw Kana-nii, my little 5 year old self and my forester parents. I saw as my brother knelt in front of me and promised me that he would come and get me. Liar…

I could only look as he stood up and drove away, as my little 5 year old self cried and begged for him to come back and to not leave him alone, as he broke down in the middle of the road. I felt tears run down my face as I watched on. I watched, as the couple who should care and look after me, instead mistreated me. And it hurt me to know what would await my 5 year old self and could do nothing to stop it.

"You are a monster! That nobody cares for! Why do you think your brother left you here, with us? He couldn't look at you anymore!" laughed a cruel voice as they punched me.

"Excuse me, Sir?" A voice ripped me from my nightmare. I looked up and saw the driver standing there.
"Yes?", I asked confused and a little breathless.
"We are here." The driver said. 'Oh.'
"Thank you." I said and left as fast as I could.
I got off the bus and looked around. I strode slowly into the town. It was nice. There were a lot medieval houses and ruins. I liked it from the first moment on. But what confused me was that I sensed a lot of vampires in this area. I couldn't pin point them so I shrugged it off.

I would enjoy my stay here and not go and look for trouble.
It was cold so I decided to go and sit in a café shop to warm up. I bought a hot cacao and sat at a window, where I looked at the people that went past it. I saw a mother who scolded her child because it ran away and a little boy who begged his father to buy him a balloon.

I smiled as I saw this people. Even when they cried and complained now in reality they were happy. They had a family that loved them.

Just as I turned back to my cacao I cached sight of a couple. There was a 17 year old boy with silver hair and faint purple eyes. He had 3 ear rings on one ear and a tattoo on his neck. Something about him screamed Vampire, but….there was something off. I concentrated and stared at him. As realization struck me my eyes widened. Hunter!

'Oh how interesting! A hunter turned vampire.' I thought.

It was unusual that the hunter hadn't killed himself. Most hunter who had the unfortunate luck to end up as a vampire committed suicide. I swept my eyes a last time over him and then looked at his partner. She was a petite little girl with brown hair…..and brown eyes…. I looked her up and down and stopped once again at her eyes.

'Impossible! That's not possible!' I thought.

"Yuki….." I whispered
