Blood, Sweat and Tears

Chapter 1

Gun POV
"Gun! Wake up!" mae yells from downstairs

I groan, trying to sit up.

I eventually get out of bed and walk inside the washroom to brush my teeth.

After, I go downstairs and see my mom cooking food in the kitchen.

"Gun, your finally awake. Here, have breakfast" she says putting the spoons and forks down

I sit on the chair and start eating.

"mm, this is delicious mae!"

"psh, that's nothing. Someday I'll teach you how to cook it" she says patting my head.

"Oh after that, help me with the crops yeah?" she adds

I nod and continue eating my breakfast.

After I finish, I put my dish in the sink and start to help my mom outside.

I was sweating a lot since I've been in the sun for too long planting new seeds in the garden.

"Gun, you can take a rest. I'll deal with the rest" my mom says

I nod and go back inside. I wipe my sweat with a clean cloth and drink water.

I look at the calendar. Their was a date encircled with a red marker, Vampire Hunt. It was the day Vampires would go here and feed off of our blood, killing us. My father was one of the victims.

I sigh deeply, seeing that it was tomorrow.

Tinn POV
"Um, Yuni.. where mom and dad?"

Yuni is one of our maids in the house.

"Oh young master, your awake. Your parents went outside to hunt. Please excuse me" she says bowing and leaving

I check the calendar, hm.. it's tomorrow.

I go to the kitchen and saw a container of animal blood.

"this shit again? bleh"

Animal blood really isn't that bad.. It's just that, I've drank it for so many years my tongue, stomach and brain refuses to take it in but I drink it anyways.

I open the container and started forcefully drink it.

"ugh"

I wipe the excess blood dripping down my lips.

I hear the door open and saw my parents. I see them drag a dead animal.

"Liam, please clean the mess!" my mom says

Liam is another one of our maids, he quickly pick up a mop and cleans the mess.

"Tinn honey, we might come home late tonight. An urgent meeting happened" my mom informs

I nod as this regularly happens.

I go back upstairs to my room. Believe or not, I have never talked to anyone except my parents and the maids.

My parents had always isolated me since birth because I was "special". They homeschooled me and the taught me other necessary things.

Even though I was homsechooled, I was the smartest kid in my population.. in academics. I never haunted before either.

"but aren't your parents the best hunters?" They are but they never really bothered to teach me. No worries though. I come with them and their hunting nights, observing them.

Gun POV
"Mae, I'm scared.."

"Don't worry Gun.. I'll make sure no blood sucking monster gets near you.. I'm here na.." my mom says as she hugs me

I hug her back, feeling her warm embrace. Even with the assurance my mom gave me, I still felt the feeling something will go very wrong tomorrow night.

I go to my room, I glance at a picture of my father. I miss him.. I miss him so much..

I open my laptop. Ever since these vampires existed, humans has been absolutely terrified of going out at night.

I start to type in Gooble.

"vampires" out of curiosity.

(All fake! Do not believe in sources shown above)

Vampires started way back in the 90's..

Hm..

The door opens unexpectedly.

"Gun! You should sleep now. We still have a lot to do in the morning" my mom says

I nod and turn off my laptop. I turn off the lights and lay down on my bed. After a few minutes I drift off to sleep.
