… What? Where… am I?... Darkness… nothing but darkness… is this the afterlife? After the end? After all that’s what I have experienced before waking up here…

… What? Why… I should’ve remembered… how it all happened… but… something’s wrong…

...

… Why… can I remember two?… Am I possessing a memory of someone else?... why does it all feel true? What am I? Who am I? Why are there two answers to every question, two world, vastly different… so what is true and what is false? Which one isn’t me? And which is one truly me?

… Why is it so hard to come with an answer? It should be clear… yet it isn’t… I was ended by that thing… but it also should be the other… none of this… make sense to me...

… Where am I anyway? I can’t move, I can’t see, I can’t feel anything, perhaps this is truly the after life… and there is nothing left for me… no… I’ll never stay here, I’ll get out, I’ll make sure they pay!... but what is even the point… why am I fighting when I shouldn’t? Why are there two clear pictures, not one? Something is wrong… something is wrong… I don’t know what it is… I don’t know what it is… perhaps… I shouldn’t even bother at all...

… I can feel myself moving… what’s going on? I could hear a scream… not mine… of a woman? 

I can see the light… my vision is blurry… very blurry… what am I? 

The room is quite bright… I can see two people… both a girl, one is gray for the most part… another have green hair and lay down on the bed… 

“Sh- is qu-te unus-al fo- a ba-y, shou-d be eas- to ra-se do-‘t yo- th-n-” The one in gray spoke up, I can’t completely make out what she said just yet… perhaps with time, the language is a bit foreign for me as well… kinda… I’m really confused about my state of mind right now.

I can feel myself being picked up by the green haired person… am I a baby? Is that why my body feel so weak? Then is this person my mother?... Her eyes are quite fierce, so maybe not? I’m not really sure myself.

“The h-ck am I su—ose to d- n-w?” The one holding me then asked the one in gray about something, I’m still not sure what they are saying… 

“Giv- her f—- o- cour-e, a—o lay he- do— on th- be- or so—thi—” The girl in gray replied, I’m still not really sure what they’re talking about… perhaps I should ignore them for now, stop trying to listen to their conversation…

Is the one in gray bleeding?... I felt thirsty all of a sudden… I wanna, I wanna. I’m reaching for the blood… ah, the one holding me is holding me towards it, that’s great.

*Lick*

Ah, so good…

*Lick*

Greatest food in the world… hold up… did I just… drink blood?

*Lick*

It’s good, is it really blood?... It clearly is… am I a vampire? Is that why I like blood?

Hmm, seems like she’s putting me down on the bed, now she’s talking to the girl in gray, sounding a bit… aggressive I suppose, hostile, not friendly, stuff like that…

*Yawn*

I wanna sleep… I’m gonna sleep

*Crash!*

… So this… is the end… I’m sorry… R-i-a… I’m sorry… A—na… I’m sorry… that this is the end… for me… truly… unfortunate… I don’t… want to… go… I… don’t…. w...a...n...t…...t……o………g……………o………

This is the end!

“Haaaaa!!!” 

*Slash*

“GAH!!!” The Hero let out a cry of pain, there’s no way any human could survive that, now with him gone I shall-

“[Chain of Light]!” Wha!?

“W-What are-”

“I’m taking you down with me!” The darn Hero’s body glow… no… 

“[Magic Burst]!” Nooooooo!!!

“Argggggg!!!” Nonononononononononono!!! Argggggg!!!

What was that?... No… it’s clear what those two dream was… I just don’t want to think about it… my end… two of them… that feels completely unrelated… I don’t understand what is wrong with me… I don’t… know.

“Hm? S—ms l—- she’s w-king u-” A somewhat cheerful voice said, I’m not sure who the voice is direct toward, but as I am not I can’t really do much, I should just rest some more.

“G—at n-w wh—” Another voice, a grumpy one I would say, replied. I think I should sleep like usual, no need to be awake.

...

<Flashback Start>

 

It doesn’t matter what stands in my way, everything humanity has create shall be destroyed, I will not, I WILL NOT, waver, no matter how long it takes, it’s my sole purpose, and I’ll see it through, regardless of how many died, I will accomplish my purpose, the Hero, the kingdom, every single human on this world, all of them shall be destroy! Those humans will die by my hand and nothing will stop me. No matter how long it will takes.

“What do you want to be growing up? K—a” A—na said so to me… I haven’t think about it honestly, I’m sure there’s a lot of time to think about it, I simply shrugged at her question.

“Well… if you have your answer don’t forget to share it with us okay?” She said with a smile on her face, Re—a also did the same despite not being in the conversation as well, well, I hope I found it soon, don’t want to keep them hanging after all.

 

<Flashback End>

#####

 

… Why? Why can’t I recalled their names? Why can’t I recalled mine? There’s so much wrong with me… well… I should stop pondering and keep sleeping… 

… Hm? Something is being poured into my mouth… is it blood again? Taste about the same, so it might be… what a comfortable taste… I should test it for real sometime if I’m actually a vampire, I can’t really tell right now. I’ll just go to sleep again…

<Flashback Start>

 

“What’s wrong with my name?” I said trying to hold in my tears...

*Sniff*

“Hah! It’s a girl’s name!” A boy who was harassing me said that to me… so what? That doesn’t mean anything! … Right?

“I think you should stop” Huh? Who was that? 

“What do you want? This is none of your business” The bully said, very irratated… is he gonna hurt him?

“It certainly is for us” … A-u-a, what is she doing here as well?

“Don’t think we both will let you go for hurting someone else’s feeling, you better be ready for the consequence” The boy speaking up for me earlier said in a threatening tone… 

“We’ll make sure the teachers know full well of what you did” Ay—a said, as if trying to provoke the bully.

*Slap*

Did that guy… just do that?

“What the heck are you doing!?” Huh? A teacher saw what was going on… are we gonna be fine?

“Eeeek! N-Nothing! Just an accident!” The bully suddenly turn into a coward sawing a teacher arriving at the scene.

“That guy was hitting her, that’s what I saw, that can’t possibly be an accident” The boy said to the teacher, A-u-a nodded then look at me, the bully was glaring at me to say no… but I can’t, I agree with with the two, since that’s exactly what happened.

“You coward!” The bully said so… what a hypocrite.

“And before that, he was harassing this guy” The helper point at me while saying so. The teacher look around trying to read the mood, then push up his glasses.

“Well, we can ascertain that later, one thing for sure, this kid need some discipline” He said glaring daggers at the bully… am I finally saved?

 

#####

 

“It’s all going to be alright now” Ayu— said to me, I can only smile in relief, then I look at the new guy who was smiling as well.

“Oh, right, we have never met before, I’m Hom— Re-t-, I’m actually from a different class, but I’ve met A-u-a before, that’s why I help her getting you out of trouble, I hope we could be friends” He said so to me with a friendly tone. Another friend… didn’t think I’ll have something like that…

“I’m Sana— K—a” I said while reaching out my hand… 

 

<Flashback End>

#####

 

Friends… there are no such thing here… no more… is there no one to help out?... I… can’t live like that… at least… I don’t want to… they’re all out of my reach, their warmt is something I will never feel again, I’ll never see them again, or perhaps not even remember… 

… Huh? Am I being lifted? … The green haired person was doing so, looking a bit grumpy and… clueless I guess? Doesn’t seem like she know what she’s going to do next… but… this warmt… feels so nice…

 

#####

 

How long has it been? I kept dreaming and waking up… I kept feeling pain, emotional one… that should’ve hurt more, but it doesn’t? It’s… all so weird… so unnatural, I can’t put my hands on it. I can see better than before, moving my body a little, and I think my hearing is also better? More coherent? Something like that, the words sounds both foreign and not foreign, it’s strange, I have to get used to this, that I can tell. I wonder how long it’ll take for me to walk around, doing something else… it should take years right?... I don’t like the sound of that… not at all.

 

#####

 

I didn’t keep tracks of time, so I have no idea how long has passed, but I’m pretty sure it’s not a year… yet I see that my body grow super quickly, it’s still a very small body but definitely not super small and stubby as it was before… like around a year old body? Two year? I’m not really sure, maybe if I can talk, I’ll ask those two, speaking of which, I’m pretty sure the one with green hair is my mother, she’s clearly a vampire with those sharp fangs and attire, and what I drink was certainly blood, the hooded girl seems to be a human though, otherwise I wouldn’t be drinking her blood… is she like a milkmaid? But for blood? I’m still not completely sure about this whole thing, are they aware of my state of being? How there are two set of memories that I really don’t want to delve into any longer? I can’t be too sure, but my unnatural-ness should be pretty clear, then again maybe this is standard for them… why am I even thinking of these things, they’ll explain all of this later… hopefully.

 

#####

 

“So? What do you think of raising her so far?” The gray hood asked the vampire. I’m not sure if they’re aware that I can hear them or not, maybe I looked like I was sleeping. Seems like they’re talking about me… another thing I should be conscious of is that… I’m a girl now… I certainly wasn’t before, in the past, whatever the heck I was, I wasn’t a girl.

“Honestly… a pain” And that answer is a pain as well, to me that is.

“Well was that a harsh truth or lie I wonder?” The gray hood coyly asked, what does she mean by that?

“... Whatever you think, I don’t care, I’ll just do as you asked, I can’t exactly oppose you” The vampire… or should I say Mom? Yeah, let’s call her that.

“You can act as harsh as much as you want, but I’m sure you have a sweet side to you as well” Gray hood said so in a serene tone. Harsh but sweet? Aloof but sweet? I felt like I heard about that before, that peaceful if somewhat pained life, I think that’s where I heard about it.

“Whatever, I didn’t forget what you have done either, don’t think I’ll be so cordial with you” Mom said as she’s staring daggers at the gray hood, who is kinda like my second mother now that I think about it… except I don’t think I want someone eccentric like her to be my mom, that sounds really shameful, not that the fact that she help in raising me would go away though. She’s definitely not just some bloodmaid, honestly it’s almost like she’s the one making me exist, somehow, and I’m not sure what that’s supposed to mean, nor do I want to found out.

“Yeah yeah… hm? Oh she’s looking at us right now, she must’ve heard us quarreling for sure” Gray hood, or second mother, or whatever she is, said sounding just as condescending as ever. Mom definitely doesn’t get used to this attitude.

“You said like we’re a couple or something, we aren’t” Mom said trying to shot down any notion of them being in a relationship, I’m not sure why but gray hood certainly has been saying something with romantic tone toward Mom for sure, is she lesbian or just pan? Regardless of that Mom walk away while my second mom drop her smile... Why am I even having another useless line of thought or looking so much into this anyway? I really shouldn’t. I think I should pretend I never heard about this and just sleep.

 

#####

 

Now that I think about it, their language… is something I shouldn’t be familiar with, yet I am, how does that work? There are two languages I know of, one of them they didn’t use, the other one they certainly did, yet I’m more familiar with the former, but what does it all really mean? I wonder if I’ll forget about it soon… no, I don’t think I want to, once I can properly write I’ll try practicing and make sure the knowledge won’t go anywhere.

“Let go of me!” Mom yelled out, struggling to let go of gray hood who is clinging to her like an obsessive girlfriend.

“Can’t you please give me some more attention? You’re being so cruel” She plead using a rather pitiable voice, honestly I’m surprised how strong she is, she doesn’t look that old and Mom is certainly a vampire, you really shouldn’t be able to overpowered one, speaking of vampire, this room have a window with the sun shining down, yet neither of us are affected by that at all, seems like vampire being weak to sunlight is a misconception, well that’s convenient for me when I’m able to travel for myself, don’t have to worry about a pesky weakness like that.

“Why are you like this!?” Mom let out a cry of exasperation, honestly is this some kind of yuri comedy skit? Gray hood is definitely not taking this too seriously, I don’t know about Mom though.

Finally! Managed to walk for the first time since I reincarnated! At least I’m pretty sure that’s the situation I’m in right now, I remembered correctly a good deal of fictional story in that modern world revolves around that and another world, perhaps I’m in the same situation right now, but a part of me told me that isn’t the case, and I can’t quite make the connection.

“That was certainly fast compared to a human, just 6 months and she managed to walk around already” Gray girl said sounding rather enthusiastic.

“Well I suppose this is a good thing and all, but what exactly am I supposed to be doing? Giving her food and be her company definitely not the only two responsibilities of a parent” Mom said sounding the opposite of her, and clearly not sure what to do next… honestly makes me feel… unwanted.

“Well look at what you did! She’s frowning and look like she’s about to cry!” Gray girl is scolding Mom for making me hear that, she can be quite considerate sometimes, even if she’s mainly messing around not doing much.

“Well, I did not meant for it to come off that way” Mom said glancing aside while trying to sound cool and stoic, by the way I remembered what the word related to being both sweet and aloof now, people in this world wouldn’t get the meaning though, so I couldn’t just use it talking to other people unless there are those with similar circumstances, and even then I know full well I didn’t simply reincarnated, there’s clearly something wrong with me, and hopefully someone can shed light on that.

Well, this is still the start of my life, there are still many things to look forward to.
