Bloodlust

Chapter 1

        Today was the day, I was dreading this day. The day I would be leaving forever and on to the next hotspot city where no one would notice me.

        I was originally supposed to be graduating high school today, but my "high school friends" and the townspeople were starting to notice that I had no plans after high school, would never celebrate my birthday, and specifically was gone around the same time the "animal attacks" occured. They were starting to put together the pieces and I had to leave before something happened to me. Unfortunately, I had to be all emotional and dreaded it specifically because I was in Moonlight Falls, my hometown. 

        There were alot less people then before, but then again I already knew the reason why. I was stupid for coming here. The townspeople who hated me, who hated the founding family,could've found out I was alive. But I missed her and I thought by coming here I could remember her again. Ever since I turned I've been forgetting most of my human memories except for her, my sister Aurora.

5 years before:

       I stormed into my house completely annoyed at this ugly, dreary town my family calls home. Tears were about to spill from my eyes as I sat on our leather couch in the living room. Looking down toward our vintage carpet, I saw the various teardrops spill onto it and began to sob feeling like there was something wrong with me as my jet black hair mixed in with my tears.

        As I heard the sound of footsteps coming toward me I tried to hurriedly wipe them away and act as if nothing was wrong knowing who it would be. Aurora with her perfect long black hair and piercing grey eyes just sat down and reached her hand to my face so she could look directly at me.

"I have something to tell you" she said in despair

"What? Don't you see I'm an emotional wreck." I said with a sarcastic smile trying to cover up how utterly depressed I really was.

"Just listen to me.." 

"WHY SHOULD I? MY LIFE IN THIS STUPID TOWN JUST GETS WORSE BY THE DAY. THE TEASING AND BULLYING NEVER STOPS, THE FRIENDS CEASE TO EXIST, AND I'M COMPLETELY ALONE! BUT I BET YOU GET ALONG JUST FINE... I MEAN YOUR AN ADULT EVEN IF IT IS ONLY 23. YOU CAN SILENCE THEM ALL WITH JUST A LOOK WHILE I HAVE TO RUN MAKING THEIR WORDS GET THE BETTER OF ME !" 

"Can you just listen to the damn story before you start getting angry at me for no reason. I'm trying to make you understand why we stay in this god forsaken town Lana!"

        I stare into her eyes for what seems like hours and nod even though I don't feel like listening. My eyes shift around and they decide to rest staring at our ugly red vintage carpet on the floor as I listen to her soon to be life changing, mind altering story.

"Moonlight Falls, a dreary town that always seemed to have a constant grey ring around it. The town was located somewhere in the cross-hairs between Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana. There were no shiny mesmerizing skyscrapers and no sexy sports cars..."

"Wait, Wait, Wait... What the hell? How does a lesson on this town's geography and skyscrapers have anything to do with my current problem?" I said quizzically

Aurora just gave me a squinty eyed look for interrupting her and continued.

"As I was saying...This town mainly only had the essentials a grocery store, a school, and a bunch of houses with filtered water."

I looked at her again with this telling her to hurry it up or I was just going to leave face.

"Most people who lived here feigned happiness and pretended that everything was okay while they cringed every time a Renaldi, the founding family, crossed the street. The Renaldi family was said to be cursed ever since this town was originally created in the 1800s."
