My name is Tallius Black Sasaki. I’m a quiet person, who enjoys a lot of alone time, but at this school that is impossible. Yesterday my new roommate arrived, his name is Orando, but he seems to go by “Oran”. I cannot seem to read him as well as other people, in fact I cannot read his mind at all. This is frustrating, I guess I will have to interact with him to get information about him. He puts off a strange aura, possibly inhuman, but I’m not sure. I talked to my cousin yesterday several times about him, seeing if he knew of anyone coming here from the under realm. However, that was a useless conversation as it ended in an argument as always. I glance over and see that Oran is still sleeping, slowly I reach over and take his phone from his side. Thankfully he has no passcode and I was able to easily unlock it. His searches in the past few hours have all been vampire related. I couldn’t help but chuckle at the wording of some of the searches. Oran suddenly tosses and turns causing me to drop the phone back onto his bed. What an odd guy, I’m guessing he thinks I’m a vampire. I’ll give him points for guessing that I’m not human, but seriously a vampire? I’m definitely not a vampire, it’s not that far off though. There are many different types of demons and demonic creatures. I am from the kingdom of Lust, technically a prince, and my breed is incubus. I’m not like other incubus, I don’t have the same interests or goals. I just want to do what I want to do, without the judgement of my father, the king of lust.

 I sigh and get up from bed. I gather all the laundry and head out. In the laundry room I meet Kiyoshi again.

“Talli!” Kiyoshi shouts from across the room.

I sigh in annoyance and ignore him. I look over at him as I put my clothes in the wash, he is with that disgusting guy. Standing next to Kiyoshi is Zekuu, a disgusting guy whom I despise. Like Kiyoshi and I he is a demon, but he is a mixed breed. His personality is gross, and he does gross things, Kiyoshi is only with him because he is Kiyoshi’s one and only chosen sworn partner (chosen by his late parents). This is the topic of many of our disagreements, because I think he can do better if he chose someone for himself. Kiyoshi tells Zekuu to leave so we can talk, and he sits on top of the washer next to mine.

“How’s it going with the new guy? Any new information?” Kiyoshi asks.

“Nothing, he thinks we’re vampires.” I answer.

“Oooh, this could be interesting. Or dangerous? What happens if he tries to become a vampire slayer?” Kiyoshi questions.

“It won’t work on us anyways, he’s harmless.” I say slamming the door of the washer and starting the machine.

“You know, Zekuu is much better now. He isn’t like he used to be.” Kiyoshi says jumping down from the washer.

“I don’t care, keep him away from me and Sparky.” I glare him.

“Okay, okay! Relax.” Kiyoshi laughs, “want another drink? You look weak.”

“I’m fine, just tired. I will go back to sleep now. Don’t you have practice this morning?” I answer and leave him, going back to the dorm room.

I quietly enter the room being careful not to wake anyone. I lay down back into bed and glance over Oran sleeping peacefully. Just who are you? As I’m staring, I notice a small drop of blood run out of his nose and down his face. I shake his shoulder gently; it would be really annoying if he bled on the clean sheets…

“Oran. Your nose.” I say, “Hey wake up, your nose is bleeding.”

He gasps and sits up quickly swatting my hand away. He gets up quickly and rushes to the bathroom. What’s this all about? These nose bleeds? I get up and knock on the door.

“Are you okay?” I ask quietly. It would be troublesome if he passed out…

“I-I’m fine! Just a nosebleed…I’m sorry!” he says in a muffled voice.

“You should go to the nurse.” I answer.

“I’m okay.” He answers back.

I leave him be and get back into bed. My mind is too curious to sleep right now so I pull out my phone begin researching. This is probably how he felt researching about vampires... Luckily, I’m not human so I know of many different creatures, besides vampires. It is likely that Oran doesn’t even know that he isn’t human, maybe some rare mix breed. He is researching about what I could be instead researching what he himself is, how funny.

I search and search, but my results come back as nothing. But I am still sure he isn’t 100% human. He could be a mixture of things…or maybe a small amount of something inhuman.

Oran exits the bathroom, tissue still in his nose and searches in his bookbag for something. I watch as he shakily searches his bag. He pulls out some medicine and swallows it quickly. It’s prescription, that I cannot tell the name of. I guess he is sick. He sits down on his bed, breathing slowly, sweat forming on his forehead. A sweet aroma surrounds him, interesting. He glances over at me and then looks away quickly. I break my gaze with him quickly as to not make him uncomfortable.

“Are you sick?” I ask.

“That’s… I’ve always been sick since I was little.” He smiles.

Odd. “sick with what?” I ask.

“Many things, I pick up sicknesses easily. I guess I’m weak.” He awkwardly laughs.

“Oh.” I sigh.

Since he is in a weak state right now, I try my shot at reading his mind again. I stare into his eyes and my eyes flash red. I couldn’t get much information, but it was more than our first encounter. All I heard was ‘I’m scared of him’. Scared of who? Me? I return to normal and leave it at that.

“What was that?” he asks.

“What was what?” I reply.

“Y-Your eyes!” He crawls away from me.

I sit there, shocked a little bit. This is the first time someone remembers me reading their mind. I have to think quick; I have to erase his mind before he freaks out or tells someone. Suddenly Oran falls over and passes out. Great, I don’t even have to bother knocking him out. I climb over and place my hand over his forehead and erase his memory. I hope that worked, or I’ll be in trouble if it didn’t. Now I know for sure he isn’t familiar with real creatures; he thinks he is human. Sparky tosses and turns and wakes up. He glances over with sleepy eyes.

“Talli? Wha-What are you doing with Ori?” he asks yawning.

“Something weird is happening. Oran…He’s not human.” I answer.

“W-What?!” Sparky gasps.

“Shh. It’s not a big deal. Initially I was worried he was someone here to hurt us, but I don’t think he himself knows what he is.” I answer.

“Oh. What is he then?” Sparky asks coming over and looking at Oran.

“That’s the problem. I have no idea.” I answer.
