There once was a girl, her name was Delilah Klovers. She was different from everybody else. She wasn't human, she was an undead staying at the human world, the alive world. A vampire. A monster that feeds from blood. Kills innocent people just to keep themselves alive. If you can call it that. Now I will get on with the story.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ugh. I hate my family! They always try to convince me to drink animal blood. Why would you do that if human blood was so accessible and has a addictive taste to it?! We are shortly going hunting but not together. We are a family but we don't talk much. Well my sisters and my parents do, but I don't. They try to talk to me but I always just put my iPod on and listen to music.

I would say I have a medium sized family. I have 4 sisters and parents. It's good cause my parents get along fine but me and my sisters are a whole other story. I have 2 older sisters and 2 younger sisters. We are all 193 years old because we were all turned by my father. It takes a lot of strength for a vampire to do what he did. He had to bite but also resist the urge to suck all of our blood out of us.

Anyway, my 2 older sister's names are Stephanie and Cassie. Stephanie looks as if she is 20 years old. Cassie looks as if she is 19 years old. I look like I'm 17 years old. My 2 younger sisters are Crystal and Francis. They are twins and look as if they are 13 years old. Well I think that's enough of explaining about my family, it's time to feed!

We all walk out of the house and everyone agreed to come back at 4:00am, since it's 3:28am now we have about 32 minutes to feed. They are going hunting in the forest on the other side of town. Where as I can go into my favourite alley way. We go off in our separate ways and I soon arrive at my feeding spot. It was strange how many humans are out during this time. It is also strange that the stars never come out. I think it must have something to do with us. Wherever we go the stars always seem to fade away then disappear. I don't know why that happens, it just does.

I hear footsteps but I think it's just my imagination. I get like that when I'm hungry. But I realise it's reality when I hear the blood pumping around the body. The heart working hard to keep the person alive. Time for that person to die. When the stranger walks in front of the entrance I get into my pouncing position and when they think they are past the ally I jump on his back. I pull him back into the ally. At first his eyes showed fear but they quickly changed to lust.

I push him to the back of the wall and jump on him. I wrap my legs around his waist and I wrap my arms around his neck. I gave a evil giggle and my fangs pierce strait into his neck. I heard a manly scream escape his mouth. I don't want to be caught so I quickly cover his mouth with my hand. I felt the warm liquid trickle down my throat. The sweet, yet metallic taste is mesmerising. I kept drinking until I heard the heartbeat stop. I knew then, my job had been done. I wasn't full enough though.

I looked at my watch to see what time it was now. 3:36, is what it read. I have enough time to lure another human in and drink more. I threw the dead human out onto the walkway and waited till another human came. I heard a high pitched scream and looked around the corner. Sure enough there was a teenage girl standing there shocked. I stepped forward and also screamed, as if I just saw the human on the ground. I was looking down when I screamed and I covered my mouth. The girl ran over to me.

"D-d-do y-yo-you know th-this ma-man?" She questioned stuttering.

I quickly nodded my head and responded.

" he was my father."

After I said that I acted as if I was depressed and I started crying heavily. She put her arms around my shoulder trying to comfort me. Wrong move, I can smell her delicious blood running through her neck. I pulled her into the alley and whispered a quick sorry and drank all of her blood. Her blood was much more tastier than the man's. Her blood was more warmer and more sweeter. I kept drinking till I felt the heart rate slow down and eventually stop. I knew she was dead. I had to now pull the man's body into the alley and make it look like it was an animal attack. That is the only part I don't like about drinking human blood. When I'm finished I either have to clean my mess up or make it even more messier.

Once I was done I looked at my watch again to see what time it was. 3:48 am I still have like 12 minutes to get home. I decided I could kill some time and go into a coffee shop. The shop was called: café parfait. What that means, I have no idea. I think it means perfect coffee or something like that. I walked up to the counter to see that the cashier was asleep. Typical humans. I walked around to the kitchen and began to make myself a hot chocolate. I heard the kettle go off signalling the water had been boiled. I poured the water in and added the hot chocolate mix. I put marshmallows in and added milk. I stirred it around and put the spoon in the sink. I leaned against the bench and drank my hot chocolate slowly.

This is probably the first time I have ever been at peace. After the hot chocolate was all gone I started to head home. It took me about a minute to get back thanks to my vampire speed. I saw that all my family was home and heading off to bed.

" goodnight Delilah" Crystal said looking at me hopeful to hear a reply from me.

Cassie ushered Crystal up the stairs and caused Crystal's stare towards me to be interrupted.

I heard Cassie say from upstairs 'Crystal what are you doing talking to her, you know she won't reply. She's mean like that.'

Crystal then replied. ' but I thought tonight would be different cause she looked almost at peace when she walked through the door.'

Cassie said 'Crystal, honey. Just go to bed.'

Then it just went quiet after that. Wow that's nice being talked about like that from your own sister. I officially hate my family. I will run away. I have survived on my own before I can do it again.
