My name is Skyler and I am a vampire. I have long black hair with red going through it, I mostly wear black clothes and I wear quite a bit of eye make up which is also black. I am proud of the way I look, no one can change me. I live with my mother, my sister Lace and my two brothers Ethan and Vlad. I am 18, Lace is 14, Ethan is 15 and Vlad is 21. My father died when I was 11 but I don't like to talk about him. I live in New Jersey well... I just moved to New Jersey actually, I used to live in Little Rock but we moved because its not really safe for us to be there with everything that has happened in the past. People think of us as a normal everyday family, but they have their suspisions, no human knows about us vampires it would be dangerous for a human to find out, the humans have been hunting down our kind for centuries and now, only a few of us remain. They thought they had whiped us out ages ago!
We can go out in the sunlight. We don't sparkle like those Twilight vampires and their pixie dust, don't get me wrong, I like the Twilight movies they just piss me off a little because I know the truth about vampires because I am one... Yeah we have a lot of strength and speed but just not a rediculous amount.
So you're probably wondering how we can go out in the sunlight and not turn to dust? Well we have an amulet that allows us to walk in the sunlight. I suppose the amulet holds most of our powers as we are pretty much usless without it.
So yeah it was a long journey to New Jersey but we are finally here! It's near the end of the summer holidays so we have school in about 4 or 5 days, our mom got us into a school before we moved. I hate school. Mostly because I hate people. They are so judgmental! In my last school in Little Rock people called me "The freaky emo lesbian" yeah did I mention I was a lesbian? Judge me all you want I don't really care. My brothers and my sister got called names aswell, I'm really protective over my family and I usually got myself into trouble fighting for them especially my sister. I look out for Lace the most not because she is the youngest but because we have always been fighting for eachother, that's what sisters do. My dream is to be in a band, I play guitar and I really want to be in a band, I hope people around here will be different and will be more like me.
Our new house is actually really big! We all have our own rooms, I used to share with Lace, and Ethan and Vlad shared a room but now we all have one to ourselves, I guess that's one good thing about this place, I wonder what my school will be like and if there are any cool people there. Yeah cool people in my eyes have to listen to good music to be classed as 'cool'.
Once I unpacked and made my room the way I wanted, I went to help out Lace with her room. It took us a good couple of hours, but atleast we got it done unlike Vlad and Ethan they only unpacked their TVs, Xbox's and their gaming chairs. They really need a life. My mom has been telling them ever since we got here to unpack and they still haven't and I'm surprised... they don't wanna make mom angry...
After dinner me and Lace went up to my room to draw. We stuck on Falling In Reverse on the stereo and started drawing Manga and Anime, we do it a lot as a pass time. A few hours passed of drawing and changing CDs every so often and I realised it was 2am so as we got here early, we decided we needed our sleep. Lace hugged me and ran to her room. I got up and closed my door then I lay on my bed and looked around my room, I sighed at the sight of my bare walls which was when I realised I forgot to unpack one thing, my posters. I decided that tomorrow I was going to paint my walls so I could put my posters up after.
I woke up the latest which is actually surprising as I usually wake up quite early and due to our great sense of smell, I could smell something downstairs, I think it was mom downstairs making breakfast which was also a change, she hardly ever makes us breakfast and its even more rare for the day after we have moved! I walked out of my room rubbing my eyes and heard my brothers bumming off their Xbox's. I guess mom gave them back then. Anyway I went downstairs, Lace was sat on the couch watching TV and mom was in the kitchen making breakfast just as I predicted.
"Skyler! You're up just in time for breakfast, can you fetch Lace, Eth and Vlad for me please?" Mom seemed happier than usual but who am I to complain? As I walked out of the kitchen Lace walked in, we also have very good hearing so she obviously heard. While my brothers are busy playing Xbox they tend to block out their senses and focus on the game but luckily my loud voice can be heard over their games. I stood at the bottom of the stairs and began to shout.
"ETHAN! VLAD! GET YOUR ASSES DOWN STAIRS FOR BREAKFAST!" I waited and listened, smirking then I heard them throw their controllers down and open their doors 'mission accomplished' I giggled to myself as I walked back to the kitchen. We could all hear the boys running down the stairs, racing to eat their breakfast then so they could get back to their Xbox's.
When we all finished and got ready for the day, I told mom that I was going to pop out to get some paint, I don't know where from but oh well.
"Can I come?" I turned around as I was about to open the door and Lace was already putting her shoes on, she knows I will let her come.
"Haha sure, we can get some paint for your room too" I opened the door and grabbed moms car keys. I wasn't really planning on being long and hopefully mom doesn't need her car today. I got in the car and Lace got in next to me. "Keep an eye out for a shop that may sell paint!"
Finally we found a place. I parked the car and we quickly ran into the shop.
"FOUND PAINT!" Lace shouted to me pointing.
"Haha finally!" I high fived Lace and we laughed. I picked out Red and black paint, I love red and black as you can probably tell... Lace picked out a dark pink and black paint. "This is gonna be fun!"
"Yeah!" me and Lace are pretty childish and I am pretty sure we will get more paint on eachother than on the walls so we bought extra tins of the paints just in case we ran out...
We spent the rest of the day decorating. We did my room first so we could leave it to dry so I could put my posters up later.
"Goddammit! We are out of black paint!" Lace said trying to get as much out of the tins as she could just as we were about to do her room.
"Shit" I looked at my watch. "I suppose I could quickly go out and get some more before dinners done".
"Okay I'll start on the pink while you get some more black" Lace started straight away.
"Okay I won't be long!" I ran downstairs, grabbed the car keys and drove to the shop. I went to the paint section and quickly picked up some more black paint, as soon as I turned around, I bumped into someone.
"Woah! Watch where you're going faggot!" I looked up at the person I bumped into, she looked about my age and was most likely going to be in my school. She had a face full of make up and look like a right slut!
"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't know plastic dolls could speak? Have you just finshed painting you face? Because I assume that is why you are in the paint section" I said, She just growled and walked the other way and I just carried on with what I was doing.
I got home and carried on painting with Lace. I kept looking back to the incident in the shop that word 'faggot' stayed in my mind and I was getting angry, I could feel my fangs trying to push their way out. That's what happened when I was angry and it made me want to kill, speaking of killing, we haven't hunted for weeks and I am feeling quite hungry.
