1 This Unfair World

This world is unfair

This world is cruel

"Today, vampires have killed 2 more officers. We must finish off these demons before they do mo-," The news was cut off by my father.

"Dear, this is why I don't want to see the news," My father told me.

That's right., this world is broken. We are oppressed, and if we are found out, we are killed. Just because we are Vampires.

"Why do we have to be killed? What did we ever do?" I asked my father.

"Kyuk-"

"You must agree, right? This is totally unfair!"

"KYUK! WE'VE HAD THIS CONVERSATION," Father said, getting aggravated. "Why are you like this? You know why. We are demons."

"Tsk"

I got up, ready to go to school.

"Have you had enough blood?" Father asked.

"Yeah,"

"Remember your contacts. You don't want to be found out,"

"I got it!" I said, annoying by the lack of confidence my father had with me.

I got out of the house, slamming the door behind me. Every day, whether you like it or not, you will get some news about the horrors that vampires have committed. Society portrays us as bloodthirsty demons that only want to destroy humans. The media only shows the atrocities committed by Vampires, and they glance over the atrocities committed towards vampires.

But, what can we do about it? We are a total minority. Humans outnumber humans so greatly, that it is impossible for us to fight back, or even convince humans that we are not bad .... that we are not dangerous.

If you are taught things for years, since you were born, it would be hard to believe the other side of things, even if your taught views are absolutely wrong. That is the problem behind this.

My thoughts were interrupted by somebody tapping my shoulder.

"Yo, Kyuk! Ready for school?" My friend, Jared asked me.

"Yep," I told him back.

Despite what I said, I have no problem with humans. After all, my best friends are human.

"Did you hear about the recent vampire incident? I'd never want to be near one. They're so brutal." Jared told me.

"Yeah, I know right," I was used to insults about vampires. I was a master of hiding my true race.

"Yo, Jared and Kyuk. How are you guys today?" I heard a feminine voice say from behind me. It was my friend Clara.

"Yo. We were just talking about the recent vampire occurrence," Jared told Clara.

"Oh yeah. I saw that in the news. It's really horrible, isn't it? These occurrences are becoming more and more common. You guys have to be careful," Clara said.

"Yep," I replied. We had this same conversation about once a week. It was the same thing as always.

The main problem with hiding my vampire existence was food. Obviously, vampires survive off of blood, mostly human blood. So, normal human food is not healthy for us. Though It doesn't really taste bad, it can pose some really bad problems to our digestive tracts. I personally have been sick for a month because I ate too much spaghetti during a required school field trip.

The second problem was the looks. Obviously, Vampires and humans do look similar in the slightest. We have paler skin, longer ears, different eyes, and long canines. Hiding these features take a lot of effort and can easily be revealed if we are not safe.

Obviously, there were blood tests and shit, but they were easy to trick, especially for vampires like me.

You see, I'm a pureblood vampire. This means that there has been no human lineage in my family. Purebloods have many advantages over mixedblood vampires. The main one is the manipulation of our bodies. I can change my appearance to a certain extent, which helps me blend in with the humans. Though, I cant totally change the way I look.

These are the main challenges that I've faced, but vampires differ. I'm sure some more challenges will appear as I mature, but I'm not looking forward to it.

I'm sure if somebody suddenly transitioned into a vampire, they'd probably only survive for a minute. The amount of mental strain that they'd receive would be unfathomable.
