Prologue-

I was woken up by a terrible noise. It echoed in my ears, peeled the skin off of my body, ripped my head apart and squeezed my brain. It was...the alarm clock. "Gahhh." I threw one of my pillow at the wicked thing and covered my head with th other one.

"Raven! Wake up, you're gonna miss the bus!" my adoptive mother yelled.

"Be down in a sec! Or an hour." I mumbled the last part. I decided to back to sleep when my adoptive sister came into my room.

"Wake up. I don't want to be late either! I will splash you with this ice cold water." She held up a large, clear, plastic cup with, like, ten chunks of ice cubes.

"You wouldn't-"*splash*, "ahhhhh!." Valerie laughed a bit and ran out and down the stairs. She could be really annoying sometimes.

I decided it was time to get up. I went into the bathroom I shared with Valerie and dried my face and hair. I looked in the mirror to make sure I got my entire face dry. I have an unusual shade of dark blue eyes, black, choppy hair, and pale skin. I put three thick layers of sunblock and lined my lids with a thick, black eyeliner, brushed my hair, and put on my favorite plum colored lipstick.

While I was doing that, Valerie barged in without knocking. "Hey, be careful where you spray that!" I said as she put a whole bunch of hair spray to maintain her blonde curls. Her hair spray smelled strong. It got worse when she put on her perfume. "Seriously! Don't spray that when I'm around. Ack!"

"Well, I'm sorry, but this is my bathroom, too," she said while applying her light lavender eyeshadow.

I shook my head and rolled my eyes. I walked out and opened my closet. What I saw was horrifying. My half was gone and all that was left was Valerie's bright wardrobe. "Valerie! What the hell did you do with my clothes!"

Her head peeked out from the bathroom door. "I hid them. Though I did put out an outfit for you on the outside of your door," she said while putting on her earrings and winked.

I walked over to my door and opened it. On it was the outfit like she said it would be. There was a cotton candy pink shirt that said "Girly Girl" in hot pink cursive, skinny jeans, a lavender leather jacket, and a pink headband. Since I was about to be late, I had no other choice but to put it on.

When I finished getting dressed, I ran down stairs to grab a quick breakfast. On the table was a plate with a cinnamon bun and a black water drinking bottle. It was one of those with a built in straw. I took the bun off the plate and bit into it. The frosting was warm, sugary, and gooey. Delicious. I took a sip of my drink. O positive. It slipped easily down my throat. It had a sweet metallic taste that was heaven. "Hey, I've alway wondered: what is it that you drink in that cup?" Valerie said from behind me.

I hesitated. "Um, it's a special kind of cranberry juice." I hated lying to her about my secret. And she was the closest person to me. She made a face at the cup. She hates cranberry juice.

We were interrupted by a loud honk. "Hey, Val! Raven! Hurry up and get in the car!" That was our older brother, Shawn. We grabbed our backpacks and hurried out the door. "Wow. Rave, you look just like Valerie. Well, your outfit anyway."

I rolled my eyes. "Shut up, Shawn."


"Well, here's you first day on tenth grade, girls."

"Actually, it's only for us. Everyone else has been here for like a month or a couple of years," Valerie said to our brother. I rolled my eyes and put one more layer of sunblock on.

Valerie got out from the back. Before I could follow her, Shawn grabbed my arm. "Make sure you be careful. And that my sister's safe. And try not to spill the blood either. People might get the idea that your a serial killer. Or a vampire." Yeah. He knew my secret. I nodded and got out.

The hall way was really crowded. Most people were getting their stuff out of their lockers and/or talking to friends or enemies. "Ah, Miss Foster, it's nice to finally meet you." I turned to see the principal approach me.

"Oh, yeah, hi. How are you?"

"I'm doing fine. Sorry you couldn't get to take the tour around school last week with your sister. It was a really nice, hot day. The sun was really bright. Anyway, I found only two people that have all of the same classes as you. Unfortunately, Meredith c- hey young man no running in the halls!- couldn't make it to school. The other one did. He wouldn't be my first choice, but he was all I could do."

"That's fine. As long as I get to my classes,right?" I said, a small smile forced itself on my face.

"Yes, good. Oh there he is right now."

I turned around once again and saw a pale, dark haired boy coming our way. "Hi, Principal Snelgrove," he said. The principal looked at him with a slight disgust.

"Hi, I'm Raven Foster." I held my hand and forced another smile.

He shook it."Vladimir Tod. It's nice to meet you."
