"Alright then let's go, sis," Frank walked out of the house with his sister.

"Yeah!" nodded his sister, following him quickly.

"Have a good day! Make sure to pay attention!"

As their mother waved her hand, Frank and his sister walked through the streets and reached the metro, a vital part for Tokyo's inhabitants to move around such a big city.

"Ah, I also had a gift for you big bro," said Kamei, as he suddenly gave Frank a small box.

"Oh?" Frank grabbed it with interest. "Thank you Kamei."

"Happy birthday!" she said, hugging him.

"Hahah, thanks, I'll make sure to buy you something good for your birthday as well," Frank nodded. "So, ah, where should we- Right, over there..."

"Yeah, how could you have forgotten? Come on!" said Kamei, guiding her brother.

"A-Ah, right, wait a second Kamei don't push me around!" Frank laughed a bit.

"I still feel kind of dizzy..."

He quickly remembered more of yesterday and past yesterday, and then many more days, in fact all his life, which felt so distant and short before, within that endless and annoying dream.

"I'm finally back home... yeah."

He smiled as he saw all the huge buildings through Tokyo, the people walking everywhere, the massive announcements, the music played by several shops, and more.

With his sister's help they got to the metro in time, and luckily there was enough space for them to sit down comfortably, a rare occurrence within the busy days of Tokyo.

As he noticed his sister checking her phone, he noticed there was someone in the train he knew, sitting right to the opposite side of him.

It was a girl he had met before; her appearance was still as stunning as ever. She had a slim and tall body, with a youthful and beautiful pale white skin, her irises were dark purple, and her hair was pure black like the night, made into braids that rested at each side of her shoulders.

She wore a similar uniform to him, except that she obviously had a skirt, with tight black stockings.

"Harumi..."

A couple of weeks ago he had discovered she was a Half-Vampire by error, and almost got killed because she thought he was suspicious.

Now their relationship was mostly... strange, she often wandered around the neighborhood and protected it due to her family's obligations.

However, she seemed to be a silent girl that often was in her own world...

Yet, despite all that, she talked to him more than anybody else at school, as she was known as a silent, cold beauty.

"Ah... those dreams were really..."

He still could recall the damn "dreams", how the two of them ended falling in love,

something that seemed utterly impossible now!

She was simply unapproachable in every level romantically...

"It sure was just a dream, I can tell now..."

"Hm? Frank."

However, out of nowhere she talked to him.

"Ah! Harumi? Yes? Good morning..."

"Good morning..."

She walked to his side and then to his left.

"Eh?!"

Frank was panicking inside as the beautiful half-vampire girl sat by his side.

"Can you lend me your homework?" she asked. "I forgot to do it... again."

"Wait, again?!" Frank muttered. "Seriously, do you only talk to me to lend you my homework?"

"So you're not lending it to me?" Harumi wondered with an expressionless face. "Aah... fine," Frank shrugged. "Here."

"Thanks."

As Harumi copied Frank's homework, he noticed his sister glancing from the side.

"Huh... my brother is so weak to cute girls..."

"It's not like that..."

Once they reached school and entered the classroom, Harumi didn't even bother paying attention to Frank. After having learned he was being protected by the Holy Shrine Family of Monks from Tokyo, a powerful organization of Japanese Monks and Exorcists, she learned he was not a threat and stopped being wary of him.

Apparently the Vampire Family and the Holy Shrine Family of Amaterasu-No-Kami had a peaceful treaty, even though the Vampires were a completely foreign force that had landed in Japan only in the last fifty years, they had already cemented as one of the strongest.

They were very territorial, so the moment she learned he had supernatural abilities and wasn't someone she knew from around the other factions, she instantly went to attack him, believing he might've been a spy or something.

Fortunately that phase was done and instead of aggressive she was simply... silent, slightly aloof, and perhaps cold, if anything.

"Whatever..."

Frank didn't want to give it too much of a thought anyways, he had a lot to do. He just remembered after seeing his friend Matsuo that today he had some assigned hunts.

"Hey Frank! How are you doing?"

"I'm fine Matsuo, thanks."

"Nice! Are you ready for today's mission? We're going to exorcise a whole house full of

Yokai."

Matsuo was one of his first friends in Japan, a young and energetic man that was sometimes really annoying and loud, but that was good and honest to heart.

His bright golden eyes were his largest characteristic, and he often liked bringing Frank to dangerous missions so they could rack contribution points.

"Ah, can't we skip it? I'm not really in the mood and today's my birthday, Matsuo."

"Eh?! Your birthday! No way, why didn't you tell me?! Happy birthday Frank! Hey everyone,

it's Frank's birthday! Hey! Hey!"

"Ah, I shouldn't have said anything..."

As Frank sighed, he glanced at the other students entering the classroom while Matsuo was trying to make some people sing happy birthday to him "American Style".

"Hm?"

He quickly noticed some new faces. A small girl with long blonde hair and a delicate complexion, almost looking like a cute elf girl from anime, with bright green eyes, a burly girl that looked almost like a bodybuilder with long blue hair, a pair of brown-skinned twins with carefree smiles, and a tall young man with fiery red hair.

"Who are these guys?"

"Wait Master Elfina, please don't sit down there before I clean!"

And then another girl entered, rushing to the seat of "Elfina", the blonde girl, and cleaning

her chair, making sure it wouldn't be filthy.

"Fiere! I've told you that it isn't necessary!"

As Elfina complained, she sat down.

"Uwah, I just remembered I forgot my lunch..."

"Do I know her from somewhere?"
