Fallen Angels (prologue)

Prologue

A man in a dark kimono, carrying a samurai and a woman in a white kimono were running through the woods.  It was dark and cold, a fine mist enveloped the whole length of the riverbank they were running alongside of.  The woman looked so immaculate, cradling a bundle in her arms, her light brown hair and deep-set blue eyes a stark contrast to the being beside her.  They were running away from something...No, someone...  Then the man stopped and turned.  His eyes reflecting the moonlight, silver.  The pupils dilated but not as any normal human would, he was a Vampire.  The woman was fair and light-footed, seemingly floating along but her lovely face was clouded with fear.  The woman stopped as the bundle in her arms cried, she was pacifying the child.
"Please don't cry my love," the woman softly cooed to the child and turned her hazel eyes to the man, "Hisato, where are we going?"
"We have to take her to a safer place. They can't find her there, I'll make sure they won't .  Daijoubu, Hoshiko." the being's eyes soften as their eyes met, taking her and the child into his strong arms.  They hear a twig snap from afar.  The running resumes, then came flashes of light and blood.  Finally...darkness as a shriek echoed into the night.
