The Phone That Rang After My Sister’s Funeral
The day we buried my sister, the world felt empty. The sun was out, but to me the sky looked gray, heavy, and lifeless. My family and relatives slowly left the graveyard, whispering condolences and brushing away tears. I stayed behind, unable to move.

Chapter 3: Part 2: Plotbound. Content Warning.
January 6, 2598 | 11:15 a.m. Saturday late morning Gun powder filling the air with the sickening sweet scent with a copper undertone is how I remember it. How I remember the fighting, or rather the war that was being waged on innocent lives. The government's own military turned towards the civilians they were supposed to protect, many defected to keep their solemn oath. The ones who continued to follow blindly cut down their own as well as the ones they swore to protect. The key to stopping that from happening is having a strong resistance to leaders such as that. Is that why she is familiar to me? Did she fight by my side in some form of resistance? Was that when I met her? Is it when Sorina first came into my life? I had to take a break before I coming back to the research. Seeing that photo. I couldn't place it. I knew her. I just knew that I had seen her or met her before. It was only when I decided to take a moment to take a deep breath as I closed my eyes for a moment. As I exhaled I began to remember that I did know a young vampiric woman that was called Sorina. Whether or not that was her actual name was another issue altogether. This freedom fight, or resistance leader as some would call her, was the spitting image of the vampiric woman I had met. At that time Sorina was around 300 or so. I doubt this would be an offspring, nor would it be a descendant of the human bloodline from her. From what I recall, Sorina's entire human bloodline was killed off due to some situation of the times. She was rather vague on that. The more research I have been conducting shows me that she hasn't changed one bit. She was known as the most compassionate, empathic, as well as fierce leader of the resistance. I wish I could say that I am surprised, yet I am not at all. From what I remember, Sorina was always the first person to run into the burning building to save anyone that was left inside. She would make sure that every single person was safe, not to mention give the shirt off her back to make sure those around her were taken care of. Give. Give. Give. There was nothing she wouldn't do to make sure everyone had a fair chance. Seeing that she was one of the first to start fighting was no surprise. One article stated that the kind leader had began fighting for one reason alone, she saw a child crying. That alone would set most sensible people off, myself included. I believe even the most apathetic person would fight for a child. I should know considering I feel that I am highly apathic at this moment in my life. Digressing once again. I swear that will most likely fix itself. Where was I? Right. Sorina and the resistance. She never does anything without a purpose. Throughout the articles, every journalist tended to agree that Sorina was the one leader to trust above all else. Mostly because she had the kindest heart. Her husband, Valo, stayed at her side. Silent, stoic, and a force to be reckoned with. I couldn't tell you if he was human or not.

Kimberly
“Shut the fuck up!” Kimberly screeches and throws a small ceramic cat at the wall. The children duck and run for cover as shards splatter across the room. The youngest, age five, hyperventilating, screaming as tears rushed down her blotchy red face. Her blonde pig tails we’re twisted like a bird's nest and sticky with yesterday’s pancake syrup.
