Hay, my name is Yumi. Just a normal 17 year old high school student. The only point is, I'm moving today and I absolutely don't feel like it. I don't want to give up my friends and I don't want to have to look for new ones. I'm glad I found Shila and Amu. And besides, I would have to go to a mixed school in Tokyo, like normal teenagers my age, as Dad always says. There are also many girls' schools in Tokyo, but my dad refuses to enroll me in one of them!
But don't think now that I'll just let something like that sit on me, oh no! I have really tried everything I could, but in vain! Because once my dad has got something on his mind, he can't be dissuaded. Unfortunately! I even pressed on the lacrimal gland. But it stayed that way, we're moving!
The movers picked up most of the furniture a few days ago and brought it to our new home. Today there are only a few boxes with dishes and all that stuff left to load into the car. Goodbye old house, I think sadly and slowly make my way outside, where I'm sure everyone is eagerly waiting for me. I slowly go down the stairs and say goodbye to my room that I have lived in for 17 years. It is very difficult for me to say goodbye, but not from the house, but from the memories I have gained here! They remind me of the good times with my mother. And now ... all gone! With a stupid decision from my dad.
I am now in the hallway and turn one last time on my own axis to enjoy the very last moment in the house! I go to the front door and watch from a distance how the mud packers carry the last bit into the car. I close the door, as if in slow motion, and set off for the action with my head bowed!
Boom! Close the door, a hand signal from my dad to the driver of the moving truck and he's off.
"Hey my sweetie, don't hang your head! Tokyo is not that far away! It takes a maximum of half an hour to get here by train. That means you can visit your old friends whenever you want." my dad says to me, apparently he wants to cheer me up. But that doesn't work.
"Yeah. It's okay. You don't need to justify your wish! You don't have to ask me, I'm just your daughter!" I say at him in an ironic tone and continue to stare out the window.
Okay, maybe that was a little mean, but I'm still right.
We are now driving on the main road in the direction of Tokyo. And the passing houses, somehow only make me sadder. As if my old and beautiful life and all the memories of my family and friends would pass me by. And there is nothing I can do about it ..

*** (Shiomi's point of view)I am slowly waking up. The attempt to open my eyes fails because the bright morning light shines through the window. Wait, why is there light coming in here at all. I drew those stupid curtains last night! Then someone was probably in my room. And I can already guess who it was. Slowly I open my eyes, pull away my covers and torture myself out of bed. My first way is to the window, but not to close the curtains, no. But to open the window. I love it when the cool and fresh morning air envelops my bare torso and face. For a while I stand at the window and watch the neighbors' children play happily and exuberantly. Ordinary people, they have it good.
Oh, it occurs to me, I haven't even introduced myself yet. My manners are just not the best, at least that's what everyone in my family says. So, I am Shiomi. A perfectly normal 17 year old vampire attending 11th grade. Strange?! Not really. Because we're not the only vampire family in Tokyo.
"Hey Shiomi, get down here now, we want to start eating!" Yells my father from downstairs.
"Yeah ..", I answer annoyed, now I quickly pull a T-shirt over it and make my way down, straight into hell!
"Finally!", My big brother grumbles and helps himself to the food.
"Good Mogen, big brother.", My little sister Ayumi says to me and smiles at me.
Before I even sit down, everyone has already started to eat, except for Ayumi, she waits until I sit down and then wishes me a good appetite. But I'm used to it from the others. They ignore me as best they can. I've come to terms with it and don't even try to do anything about it. It would be pointless and besides, I don't want to have anything to do with these people who despise their own child! You think that's bad ?! No way, because this is just the beginning of my very personal hell. You will soon experience the climax.

So that first chapter.
I decided to write the story again because I didn't like it so much at the beginning & I lost the thread because I haven't written for so long, because I will soon be exams & soo (;
In any case, I'll stay on the ball as best I can (:
I hope you enjoy it (:
