Avankiri

((I'll explain Twilight Shifting through one of the characters later on.))

Gather 'round, my children, and I will tell you a tale like none that you have ever heard.

My name is Amaranth Avankiri. I was born 10,000,000 years ago. I have long blonde hair usually tied in a high ponytail, blue eyes, pale skin, and a cross shaped scar on my left cheek. So I look like a preppy vampire...I was born in Romania, deep inside the Carpathian Mountains, where I was protected by gypsies, vampires, lycans, and all sorts of night creatures. I was raised in the court of Count Dracula himself, and trained to protect myself and others by the Greek and Norse gods themselves. I was a gentleman from the human age of 3 till this very day. It was in Dracula's court that I met the girl of my dreams. Her name was Melissa. Melissa was vampyre, of course. We fell in love and almost had twins...Until tragedy struck.

Vampire hunters poisoned Melissa the night before she was to give birth. She died with our children still inside of her...It was then, at 2:47 P.M., on October 31st of 1746, that my power awoke. I carried Melissa from the room she was in, burning everything in sight. I knelt at the entrance and looked to the sky. As usual, there was no answer. It was that day that I finally realized it. God was not here for me anymore...If he wasn't there for me, or anyone else...I vowed that I would take God's place, and protect all people with my power...

I married a young fox demon named Akiko. She was so gentle and sweet, life with her was a fairytale in the few short months I knew her...One day, she disappeared, never to be seen again. I have been searching for a trace of her till this very day.

In the year 1776, I witnessed the United States sign the Declaration of Independence...I also witnessed the Fall of Lucifer, an angel I had befriended...As he fell, I was there to soften his fall...Both of us died in the incident...

But somehow, I was reborn anew. I felt live and awake, ready to take on the world. That is what I did. It was a few years later that I ended up executing Lucifer and sending him to Hell...I wish I could forgive myself, but that is impossible...To this day, I can hear him crying, begging me "Why, Avan, why!?", as I snapped his neck clean off with the serrated edge of my torturer's whip.

In the year 1991, I took note of a beautiful woman named Mina. She was my third bride...Our love was long. In our years, it lasted exactly 36,000. In human years, only about 3. The time difference can't be explained, I know.

In that time, Mina bore me a child. A boy, whom we together named Artemis Daemon Leonius Rose Amaranth. He was my only living relative after his mother died...It was me not being there that killed her. She was sick in bed while I was off fighting in the War on Terrorism...That war ended in 2012, by the way, when the Earth was destroyed and reborn at the beginning of man...

In the New Dark Age, Artemis was assassinated. By what or who, I never knew...In my grief, I destroyed all my power and committed suicide...Yet again, the goddesses saw fit to rebuild my mind and soul and body. Why, I knew not till New Earth Year 2000...I was told by them that I was actually their one true son...I was a god. This realization awoke within me something terrifying. For every being, there is a dark side. Mine decided to come out at that time.

The shockwave was enormous. It screwed with machines worldwide, causing what humans referred to as the "Y2K Phenomenon". In that brief moment, Kiri was born. In my language, Avan means light, and Kiri means Dark. This was true...Kiri was a bloodthirsty murderer...He killed over 90 million people before I was able to contain him within my soul again. Gradually, he calmed down and became docile and harmless. He grew a love for people and humans, and vowed to protect them with me...

That is my story....But now, let me get on with the real story.

"Minna!" Said Kaze-Sensei. "We have a new student from a far away country. Please, help me introduce Mr.....How do you-"

"Seifer, Kaze-sensei...Okai, Seifer. I'm from Romania, a European country." Seifer opened the classroom door and stepped in. His flowing black cloak, without hood of course, came down to the top of his boots, 5 inches below his knees. His purple hair had been tied back in a ponytail. He turned to the class and attempted a smile, but his eyes betrayed him. "Watashi wa Okai Seifer desu...Yoroskune."

He bowed his head lightly, glaring at the floor. "Why, damn it...Why can't you look at them. Is it because they're different? Because once you open up to them and tell them the truth about yourself and what you are, they'll hate you and call you a liar just like everyone else?"
