Elizabeth Leavitt stood atop her balcony, overlooking the crowd below.

Her eerily pale skin matched her pristine white dress. Elizabeth's ebony hair contrasted deeply with her pure white appearance. It hung low enough to reach the small of her back.

She wasn't human, she was a vampire. Elizabeth wasn't bitten and turned. She was simply born to a vampire couple.

A hundred years ago, a mob of humans gathering outside her home would have been a bad sign.

A rock smashed against the brick wall next to her. Another one busted through one of her windows.

Things weren't significantly better in present day, with only one small exception.

Her kind no longer hid in the dark.

Fifteen years ago, only a year before her own birth, creatures of the night came out of hiding. Some said they believed humanity had reached the point where they could be accepted in society.

Others were more pragmatic, and simply recognized that recent advancements in technology made it difficult to remain hidden.

Another rock came an inch from grazing her head. Her eyes narrowed at the group of three teenagers within the crowd.

Few seconds later a girl stormed to them and started to yell.

-You idiots! Why are you like this?! You promised you wont do this anymore! Matt you promised me! Do you even have a reason to do this?! 

-Y/N (your name), please! We were just having fun! Don't be sooo boring!

-FUN?! You were having fun?! That is someones daughter! How would you feel if someone was trying to kill your sister or mother just for FUN?! 

-Y/N...

-GET. THE HELL. OUT OFF HERE! Go right now or I'll tell the police who you are!

Elizabeth watched the mob slowly going in opposite direction then the one girl came from. Elizabeth tried to call her to thank her, but when she heard the police she ran away, but not before Elizabeth saw her face. Black lipstick and mascara and white hair flashed in Elizabeth's eyes. She is going to make sure to thank her if she sees her again. That kind of girl is hard to forget. Flashing red and blue lights appeared at her front gate. Three police cars pulled in.

-Finally. It took them ages.

Said Elizabeth crossing her arms. A gentle hand pulled her back.

-Honey, please stay inside until this is cleared up.

That was her mum. She was a tall woman. Her skin was even paler than Elizabeth's.

-They broke one of our windows.

-The police is already here, they'll deal with the ones that did that later.

-Ones? It wasn't just one or two, they were all doing that.

-Sweetie...they..

-Whatever.

Elizabeth stormed off.

The evening passed quietly after that. Police made no arrests, which didn't surprise Elizabeth in the least.

She ate at the dinner table, her mother sat across from her, and her father was in the other room, talking to someone on the phone.

Elizabeth picked at piece of chicken on her plate.

-Aren't you going to eat?

Her mother asked and Elizabeth shrugged.

-Are you still angry?

-Of course I'm still angry!

Elizabeth snapped. 

-That's the third time those animals showed up at our doorstep! We're not leaving town, so why don't they just stay at home?!

-We have to be patient. If we are, they will eventually leave us alone.

Elizabeth looked down at her food. Her thoughts drifted back to that girl. She stopped them. If she didn't show up, Elizabeth maybe wouldn't be eating her food now. She couldn't see faces of others because they were covered but the girl wasn't trying to hide from her. She had no reason. 

Her father walked in and she shook her head to push her thoughts away. Unlike her mother and herself, her father looked fairly normal. His hair was short and black, and his skin tan.

-Looks like we are having guests.
