Chapter Text
Kanade had found a pigeon. She poked it. Nothing happened. Animals weren’t very startled by her, maybe it was because she was a vampire. Or maybe because she was naturally calm. She held it in her hands.
Would it be too cruel to drink its blood, or would it just be the circle of life? As Kanade was planning her next move, a branch snapped from behind her, scaring off the bird. Kanade tilted her head before looking back at the noise. There was nothing there.

Mafuyu hid behind the nearest tree. She had meant to ask the girl with the long silky hair what she was doing out this late. She thought she would’ve scared her off, maybe the girl would think she was a vampire, and that was a big no-no for Mafuyu.
Suddenly, she heard the girl call out. “Huh..? Is anyone there..?” That voice sounded familiar. Out of instinct, Mafuyu called out as well, “K? Is that you?”
K was her friend's username on Nightchord, the website they would meet up on as well as Enanan and Amia to create their music. The girl got up and walked towards the tree Mafuyu was hiding at, to which Mafuyu came out to see her.
“Are you K?”
“Mhm. You sound like Yuki.”
“Call me Mafuyu. The full name is Mafuyu Asahina.”
“I’m Kanade Yoisaki. It's nice to meet you… in person.”
Mafuyu smiled. The sickening same smile that was in all photographs of her with her dear old family, and more specifically, her mom. Kanade smiled back, seemingly with an energyless smile, which made Kanade look kind of weak or sick.
“So what are you doing out here at this hour?” Kanade asked, rubbing her eyes staring at Mafuyu’s head area.
Mafuyu suddenly felt cold. What was she supposed to say? My mom wanted me out of the group, so I could focus on vampire hunting and family. That would have been beyond dumb.

Kanade felt hot. Starved, actually. She couldn’t keep herself from looking at her neck. Mafuyu looked kinda lost in thought, so Kanade moved on from the question.
“You look cold, do you want my jacket..?” Kanade muttered. She was dead for heck’s sake, she didn’t need to feel hot because she simply couldn’t feel hot. She took it off and held it out with her right hand, right in front of Mafuyu's face.
Mafuyu quickly shook her head, no. Kanade wrapped her jacket around her waist, not realizing that some of the gothic era clothing, specifically the button up shirt she loved dearly, was showing. Mafuyu didn’t seem to notice.
“Um… I suppose I should get back home to meet with Enanan and Amia.” Kanade said, rubbing her neck. Mafuyu nodded. Mafuyu went to turn around but Kanade had mumbled something.
“What should we do?” Mafuyu said, Kanade hearing a stern tone before Mafuyu looked her dead in the eyes. “Should we tell those two that we met in real life?” Mafuyu just nodded before she quickly sped-walked back home.

“Where the heck are those two?!”
“I don’t know. Can we get back to watching the movie..?”
“I had no idea you liked the Lego Batman movie so much, hehe!”
“I wanna finish it before my brother gets back and tries to make me draw him a new album cover. He seriously thinks he and his partner can make it big. I don't doubt his abilities at all, but-”
“But, but, but, but shut it! I love this movie!”
The discord notification sound rang out, where a message from Yuki had been sent.
“Hey. Me and K met in real life.”
A message from K came quickly after.
“Hey, me and yuki met irl. got me thinking we should all meet irl. theres a cute new place opening next door”
Mizuki sighed, looking at the time. It was four in the morning. And today they just had to go to school. “Hey, Enanan, I gotta go, see you tomorrow night. Love ya!” Mizuki snuck the “love ya” in so they could just hear Enanan's annoyed voice before they hung up.
Now for her single two hours of sleep.

Why did Kanade do that? Why would she even try to get them to meet up? This was cruel. Of course, Mafuyu loved her bandmates, obviously, but her mother wouldn’t even let her go five feet away from the house without making her come back in, saying her bandmates would only harm her.
She pushed her hair back and sighed, looking out the window. There was no moon. The sun would be lonely without it. She rubbed her eyes. Was she tired or just crying? She yawned and flopped onto her bed, almost like a fish. She let her hair down and of the scrunchie.
She looked to her desk, which had mountains of mountains of vampire history books, which when Mafuyu would flip through the pages, would cause her to have to stifle a sneeze from annoying anyone else in the house. Mafuyu sighed, knowing that she’d make herself read it until she liked it.
If she put more thought into the new life she had brought down upon herself, she most likely would have realized that it was cruel to have to hurt someone. But she refused to let any trace of doubt into her mind. This was her dream, more or less.
Now, she had to go to school, how refreshing. All she could think of was meeting her friend and how odd she looked.
Her eyes closed, slowing, but she struggled due to the light in her aquarium. All she had to do was just block it out, as per usual.
