Maggie: Should we do something clever with the disclaimer?

Cindy: I don't know. I can't really think of anything.

Maggie: Oh well. What about Hikari? Does she have anything to say?

Hikari: What the hell?! *reading ahead in the story* What kind of situation have you put us in?!

Cindy: Don't give it away!

Maggie: Cindy, keep control of your OC!

Cindy: *sigh* This is exhausting. Let's get on to the story already! WE DON'T OWN UTA NO PRINCE SAMA! JUST THE PLOT AND OUR OCS!

Haruka sighed as the car bounced along the unpaved road. She was glad it was almost summer vacation, she didn't know if she could stand these long car rides into town anymore. The night's events conquered her thoughts. She wasn't sure what would come of them, but she really wished that the mark they gave her wasn't so visible!

Haruka played with the wristbands covering the stars. Shifting them, she looked at one closely. They weren't solid, but made up of fine, intricate vine patterns. She couldn't help but be dazzled by their beauty.

"Onee-chan." Hikari's voice snapped Haruka back to the present. "We're almost at school."

Haruka nodded and noticed Hikari still looked a little pale. She had made sure that her sister drank plenty of water and orange juice since that one vampire, Syo she believed his name was, decided to make a meal of her. It made her heart hurt every time she saw the two little puncture marks on Hikari's wrist.

Their grandmother pulled up to the school and the sisters climbed out. After saying 'goodbye's and 'have a good day', they separated to their different classrooms.

Haruka entered her classroom, 2-A, and sat in her seat. It was in the middle of the row, but right next to the window, an optimal place for the air headed girl. She was staring out the window when a soft, "Ohayo," pulled her back.

"Oh! Good Morning, Rita-chan!"

The cool-headed blunette gave her a hint of a smile and a nod before sitting down in front of Haruka. They easily stricked up a conversation before the teacher came in.

"OHAYO-PU!" In walked their flamboyant teacher, Ringo-sensei. Ringo-sensei was famous in the small town for his cross dressing. Haruka remembered her grandmother saying he was a year or two behind her mother in school and he was usually made fun of for being very feminine. She said he was much happier dressed as a girl and that she was happy for him.

The class returned the greeting and they started class. Being the air head she is, Haruka didn't notice all the times Ringo gave her strange glances.

Hikari slept through most of her classes. Several times, Hyuga-sensei had to slam a textbook on her desk to wake her up. But the blood loss and what happened last night made her sleepier than ever.

But the one class she didn't sleep in, was the one where she would have caught on fire if she did. Summer-sensei (as she instructed the students to call her) was probably roped into becoming the home economics teacher. All of her cooking was deadly, her sewing was atrocious, and her cleaning skills… lets just say the students have no idea how she keeps a home.

Even with those downfalls, Summer-sensei is the most wonderful, funny, happy, amazing teacher that ever existed. She was a teacher that students could come to with problems and joke with. But the only thing you never wanted her to do, was take off her glasses. She had another personality that made you want to run screaming. The seniors made sure to tell this to every class of hers, horror filling their eyes at the unknown memory.

Hikari was actually thinking about telling Summer-sensei about her and her sister's dilemma. But who would believe that they made a contract with a group of vampires when she barely believed it herself? She remembered what they had said. They said that there were more vampires looking for them. The thought made her scared and jumpy. Ever since hearing that, she's been afraid of her own shadow. This is Nanami Hikari we're talking about! Known all through the school for being the biggest bad ass tomboy ever.

A tap on her shoulder made her jump two feet in the air. "Dammit, Ai! You scared me!"

"I'm sorry, Nanami-chan. But are you alright? You've been out of it all day." He asked in his usual monotone voice.

She gave her teal headed friend an appreciative look. "I'm fine Ai. And how many times have I asked you to call me Hikari?" She asked changing the topic.

"Approximately three thousand ninety two times, Nanami-chan. Now tell me why you've been acting strangely."

Hikari sighed. Ai had moved here from the city last year and they had become fast friends, both being the class weirdoes and all.

"I just didn't sleep well last night, that's all." Ai stared at her for a moment before shrugging and accepting her answer. He was watching a bunch of students keep Summer-sensei from making a cake along with the class and didn't notice Hikari wringing her hands together in built up tension.

Only two more periods today. She kept reminding herself. Only two more and I can go home. But what will be waiting for us at home? Those boys? She looked up and giggled when she heard a quiet explosion. Summer-sensei had made a cake against the students' wishes and there were five foot flames emerging from the oven with sensei standing there wide eyed over it and her mouth in an O shape.

"Kyaaa! Go get Hyuga-sensei!" One of the girls screamed and there was a lot of running around before Ai calmly got up and got the fire extinguisher. As he put out the flames, Hikari went to the crying teacher. "It's alright, Summer-sensei! It wasn't your fault! It could've happened to anybody, right Ai?!"

"Of course."

"See?"

"I-I'm sorry, Hikari-chaaaaaan!" She sobbed rubbing her eyes. Hikari hugged her and the exciting part of her day ended… Possibly… No. There was still a lot to come.

"Onee-chaaan!" Haruka turned around to see Ai and Hikari running towards her and Rita.

"Hi, Hikari! How was school?" She asked with a smile.

"Summer-sensei set fire to the oven again. So, nothing out of the ordinary." Hikari giggled and Ai turned the ends of his mouth up slightly in the only hint of laughter he could give. "Anyway. Onee-chan, I called grandma and she said we could spend some time shopping around town before she comes to get us. Do you want to go get ice cream?"

"Sure!"

"Ai and Rita are invited as well, of course!" Hikari smiled at their friends.

The four walking to the ice cream parlor were quite the band of weirdoes. You have the shy, bubbly one, the rambunctious tomboy, the robot, and the silent beauty. They all balanced each other out.

It wasn't long until they were sitting on the parlor's patio, the umbrella shading them from the beating of the early summer sun. Hikari nibbled at her strawberry cone, watching Haruka talk to Rita about the test results they got earlier that day. Ai was watching them as well, nibbling at his cup of vanilla soft serve.

"Can I have a bite?"

Breath blew in Hirari's ear making her jump up with a scream.

She heard laughter and hit the bent over form on the head making him fall to the ground.

"Syo! Don't sneak up on me like that!"

"But y-you're face! HAHAHAHA!" Syo was in tears!

Hikari plopped back down on the patio chair and went mourned the loss of her dropped ice cream. Ai shoved his towards her and she gave him a huge smile to thank him. He recognized it with a nod.

"Hikari?" She felt Syo snake his arm around her shoulders. "How was school?"

"Go away." She said flatly and stuck a spoonful of ice cream in her mouth.

"Ohhh~ I see now." Hikari lifted her eyebrow at Ai. "Is this why you've been so out of it today?"

"Huh?"

"You got a boyfriend."

"W-W-WHAT?!" Hikari and Nanami yelled out at once.

"Of course not! Syo is not my boyfriend! H-he-he's."

"Do I not get a say in this?" Syo asked. Rita and Ai nodded while Hikari and Nanami gave him a surprised WTF look. Syo tightened his arm around Hikari's shoulders and laid his other hand on her cheek. "I rather like the idea of being together." He said quietly. Hikari shuddered when his face moved in closer to her and she felt the sharp points of fangs grazing her neck. "Can I have a bite." He said again, but this time only loud enough for her to hear.

The others took her visible shudder as one of pleasure, and were confused when she pushed him away with an angry look. "Go away, Syo." He voice was demanding and he looked rather hurt.

"H-Hikari, don't you think it's about time we got home?"

"Yeah, Haruka. Let's go."

They stood up to leave saying good-byes to their friends. Syo nodded to the two teens still at the table and followed the sisters. "I'll walk you home." He said.

After they had walked around the corner, Syo grabbed both of their hands and pulled them into an alley before shoving them up against a brick wall. "You two!" He said in a stern, scary voice. "Why didn't you come straight home after school?!"

"We didn't want to, so we didn't!" Hikari sassed back while Haruka kind of shriveled up in intimidation.

"Do you know what could have happened?! Do you?! We were all so worried! I'm surprised I was the only one to sneak away to look for you!"

"How did you find us?" Hikari asked crossing her arms with a slightly guilty expression.

"Your smells are very strong and significant. It was easy to track."

"Are you saying we stink, Shorty?!" Hikari snapped.

"No stink per say. Haruka smells like a sunny day and roses. You smell like strawberries and sweat."

"Whatcha say, punk?" Haruka sensed her sister's demon aura and started to back away.

"You smell like strawberries and sweat. Not as bad as some of the other tomboys out there. I once drank from on tomboy who smelled like dirt and grass."

Hikari threw her arms up and stalked out the alley with Haruka on her heels. They had gotten a goodly bit a ways before Syo started to go after them.

They ran along the sidewalk and darted into another alley and watched as Syo ran right by. Hikari was peeking around the corner of the building to make sure he was really gone.

Hikari sighed. "I think we lost him for now. Until he picks back up on our scent. The nerve of that guy!"

"H-Hikari!"

"What? Haruka, what is it?" She turned around and went pale.

Standing behind a dumpster, just visible, was Summer-sensei. She was pinned up against a wall by a smaller woman with long light blonde hair pulled into a side braid. The woman seemed to be kissing sensei's neck, but a small ruby running down her chin told them otherwise.

"Summer-sensei! No!" Haruka yelled. Hikari tried to get a hand over her mouth to quiet her before, but couldn't move fast enough. She tried to pull Haruka out of the alley, but she was planted to the ground.

The girl heard them and whipped around. A trail of blood running down her chin and crimson eyes changing into beautiful blue ones. Summer-sensei collapsed, pail and almost completely drained of blood.

The short girl stalked towards them slowly. Her blue eyes were cold and terrifying, seeming to freeze them to the spot.

"You saw me." She purred giving them chills. "You saw me feeding… What to do about that?" She reached them and stroked a hand down Haruka's cheek. "I recognize your scents. You're the ones everyone wants. How lucky would I be to get a bite." She started to move into Haruka's cheek when Hikari snapped out of her trance. She started to move, but a hand grabbed the vampire's neck before she could. Following the arm, Hikari saw Syo.

"Izzy." She growled.

"Ah, Syo. Long time no see. You haven't been around the house lately. We all miss you. Especially—"

"Leave them alone." He said. His voice was hard. Even more terrifying than this girl, Izzy, had just been. "They're ours. You have no rights to them."

"Oh?"

Syo grabbed Haruka's arm and moved the wristbands to show the mark. "They both belong to us and I have already drunk from the younger one."

Izzy glanced at Hikari, who fidgeted under her gaze. "Very well, Syo. I'll leave them alone… Until I'm ordered to do otherwise." She threatened. "And He'll be very interested to hear about this."

"Don't! Don't tell anyone about this! Or so help me Izzy, I'll—"

"You'll what, Syo? Kill me? You know you can't do that."

"You don't know what I'm capable of. I'm higher up than you."

She smiled sadistically. "Not after this you won't."

Syo stared at her for a minute. "You've been getting on His good side… Haven't you?"

"Of course! How else would a vampire survive these days? Not all of us can go around making useless contracts. I bet you won't be able to keep them alive for a month. They'll all be after them, and you too."

"We can take them. We aren't scared."

"Now that's the thing, Syo. You should be. You haven't been around for years, you don't know how much we've all grown. See that one there?" Izzy pointed at Summer-sensei. "If I don't finish her now, she'll turn. And you know that the stronger we get, the stronger the ones we create will be. And you know what?" She leaned in to whisper in Syo's ear, but still spoke loud enough for the girls to hear. "I'm full."

The three of them gasped and Syo could only stare at the turning woman.

Izzy pulled away from Syo and grinned. "I hope to see you soon. Maybe Christmas dinner?"

It seemed like the girls blinked and she was gone! Just vanished!

"S-Syo." He turned to see Hikari collapsed to her knees on the ground and shaking. "Please… You can't let this happen to Summer-sensei."

Syo chuckled a bit. "Do you really think I'm evil enough to leave her like this? We'd have a wild vampire on the rampage and a lot of us would probably die trying to kill it."

"Don't call Summer-sensei and it! She is a wonderful person!" Hikari yelled, trying to hold back tears.

"I just… *sigh* I need you guys to wait around the corner. The others should be on their way. Tell Masato I'm over here and the rest will take you back to your grandmother's house."

They nodded and walked to a bunch just down the street. They cuddled up to each other for support and weren't even waiting a minute before five frantic boys showed up. Hikari, being the one in the rightest mind, told Masato to go to Syo.

"T-Tokiya?" Haruka mumbled as they rode along the dirt road. "W-we met another vampire."

"I know."

She looked surprised up at him. "How?"

"The contract allows us to tell when your afraid or hurt or whatever. And if the feelings strong enough, we can see flashes of what you're seeing. So we know Izzy was there."

"Who is Izzy? I know she's a vampire, but she seemed extremely close to Syo."

"She's his younger sister."

"WAH?!" Haruka and Hikari yelled together.

"Syo has two siblings. Izzy is his younger sister. She was actually turned a while before him. And he had a twin brother, Kaoru."

"Were they human before?" Hikari asked.

"Of course! We all were. Very few vampires were born ones. Only one is actually alive today. Syo's family actually was attacked. Their blood was much like yours. A mouth watering fragrance. The three of them were attacked. Syo and Izzy turned. But his brother didn't survive the transformation, as weaker humans usually do. But it was actually Syo everyone thought would die."

"What do you mean?" Haruka asked.

"Syo had a heart condition as a child. Kaoru was the healthy one. While Syo was weaker in body, Kaoru was weaker in spirit. He just wasn't strong enough."

"That's terrible!" Haruka exclaimed.

"And the thing is, Izzy blames Syo. That's why she's so cold towards him. She hates him and all of us, his friends."

"She said that she was going to tell someone about us. Who was she talking about, Tokiya?" Hikari asked.

He was silent. "I think she meant she was going to tell the leader of our clan…" The car stopped and he climbed out.

The two girls got out too and went after Tokiya. "Who?" They asked.

"No one you need to worry about." A hard voice came from behind them.

"Syo!" They ran to him and started blurting out questions about Summer-sensei.

"She's fine. We were able to keep her from being turned and she's currently in the hospital." He said and they sighed with relief. "She won't remember anything. So please, when you see her, don't say anything!"

They nodded in agreement.

That was the adventure of their first day in contract. But later, when their grandmother was asleep, they did have to give a couple of their new friends a bit of a snack. Haruka didn't like being bitten, but it wasn't as horrible as getting taken as a full meal.

They knew they had more to come. But a single question haunted them: Who is the clan leader? What could he possibly want with them?

A/N: Okay, new characters! Yay!

Rita, Summer, and Izzy are Maggie's!

Hikari is still Cindy's!

You don't necessarily need to read Maggie's story (even though she'd love you to) to understand the characters (which might be OOOC*). Their pretty much there so that we don't need to spend time making up entirely new characters ^.^

So Maggie's ROSETTA (read her story if you want to know what the heck that is) is going to be in this. And so is Quartet Night.

Maggie: Oh my god! What have I done to my OC!

Cindy: And you killed Kaoru! How could you?!

Maggie: I don't know! I'm sorry! I don't know what I was thinking! Yes, I am responsible for this complicated chapter. But I think it turned out pretty well!

Cindy: O.O YOU KILLED KAORU!

Maggie: I SAID I WAS SORRY! Anywho! Please review! It makes us so happy! ^.^

Cindy: You don't deserve to be happy.

Maggie: Do you think I liked doing that to poor Syo?! *sigh* SEE YA NEXT TIME!
