                                                                     PROLOGUE

This is my routine: I wake up; I say "Just another bad dream"; then I go to the mirror, open my mouth. and see- wait for it - my fangs! I say "Ugh, not a bad dream!"

I, Ashlee Coulter am a vampire. Well fledgling. Real. Alive. Well, I guess sorta alive. No one is bitten then turned into a vampire. You're born one- as far as I know. Do my mom and dad know? Yes. Does my sister know? Yes. Now first let me clear up a few myths. From the top!

Myth # 1: Vampires are pale and waxy- This is true and totally untrue ( for muah ). Me for example: Ashlee Emma-Rose Coulter. My skin is rosy and is always glowing helped along by my blush sometimes. ( But my skin is COLD to-the-touch, whatever. ) With my long, thick brunette hair, glossy lips, and skinny jeans, I would appear to be a perfectly normal fifteen-year-old girl. At least- I hope.     Myth # 2: Vampires drink blood- Uh, ewe gross! Okay, okay, yes  there are some, and I said some, of us out there who hunt small wild animals and humans. I on the other hand feel sorry for them. Every vamp 12-18 has a mentor. So thank-the-heavens Roxie, my mentor, told me about Conga!. Literally with an ! at the end. They're these awesome drinks that come in these black, frosted, glass cups, that arn't to girlish or boyish, with lids like coffee. Thankfully, a had-enough-common sense genius vamp who was just as grossed out by it as I am invented them.      Myth # 3: Vampires sleep in coffins- Uh, no way! I sleep in my black ( the prettiest black you've ever seen ) twin bed. With its own canopy at the top. I live in Manhatten, but my family's moving to Sacramento, I'll no longer see skyscrapers. But I will see hot boys and beaches. Not bad a trade- off.          Myth # 4: Vampires turn into bats- Sadly... this is my problem. I STINK at bat-shifting. You have to think your sprouting wings, your fangs grow longer, and so on. Then- boom! -like that, you're a bat! However for me- well lets put it this way: I'm taking a test, then I start to transform when I least expect it. So I have to rush to the nearest girl's bathroom or janitor's closet and wait to shift back.

This all started when I was born. Obviously... So when I turned 10 I started feeling these vamp skills. FREAKY.

This BEAUTIFUL lady came up to me and told me, 'You, young one, are a fledgling. Part of the vampire kin. One day your dreams, loves, and destiny will be fulfilled.'

So, this is my life now.
