Who Am I

Chapter 22

Unknown Pov

We are running out of food we won't survive for more than a week since those vampires keep stealing our food, forcing us to come out of our small house.

Feeling quite squishy and mushy inside, I went up to the stage and told the children that it was time for breakfast.

The problem here is, they didn't know that.

I didn't tell them, the staff were long gone they panicked too much and ran out of the house like mad
men/women, and I still don't understand why I was shocked when the vampires attacked them draining all their blood. Even though I knew that that was what's going to happen.

I did my best to prevent that with the children. There were about 50 of them, 6 of them died because of all that depression on us and 14 of them panicked and ran away their fate was just like the staffs.

Who am I you ask?

Well, I'm the manager of an orphanage. All those kids were orphans I was trying to protect but failed for 20 kids, the other 30 were perfectly fine.

I just wish that someone can just get us out of here before any other child decides there future ends here.

I heard a knock on the door. My head turned to face the door ,I placed an ear on the door, I can hear panting.

"Please open... the door I need... help, and shelter... for the night ...please."

The voice seemed to be a girl's voice but I'm not falling for that old vampire trick.

"We don't open the door for vampires."

"I think you have the wrong idea but I'm not a vampire. I'm here lost and I want to seek for shelter. Please." She pleaded.

Okay that was enough to make me believe that.

I opened the door and to my surprise I find a boy that looks like he was in his 17s and he was sweating continueslly. He had black hair brown eyes and was wearing a black shirt with a blue half-sleeve jacket, green gloves and dark Navy blue trousers , a red pair of shoes, and a red cap, wearing a green bag.

I was confused at first about me hearing a girl's voice but then thought that it was just my imagination when the boy spoke.

"Can I come in sir.?"

I opened the door wide letting him pass, I watched him carefully just in case he was just playing a joke on us.

A small bird fluttered in through the door and stood on his shoulder.

He looked over his back at me, " Aren't you going to close the door... Anyway do you live here alone?"

"There are 30 children in here." I said bluntly, pushing the door shut.

He smiled immediately looking through every door in the building.

Aria's Pov

As soon as he said 30 children I couldn't stop myself from going through the rooms to see them. Since I really missed seeing kids.

I enter the room and stare at 30 children starring back at me.

I walked and said,"Hi! I'm Ari-"

I feel Ash jabbing me on the neck.

"I mean Ash. And this is my parrot friend Red." I lied.

'Ash your name from now on is Red okay so play along.' I mind linked to him.

He squeaked.

The children came to me one by one and asked if they can pet him.

I said yes. "Red please don't hurt the kids." I said gently to him.
