As promised, here is the newest finished SM fic! It does borrow from the Myus Last Dracul and Transylvania no Mori, but I only took ideas from it...and some lines...I'm hungry so I'm rambling...
Full Summary: After defeating the Silence, Haruka discovers her family has been murdered by vampires. She undertakes a quest to avenge her family while Michiru is just coming into her powers. As Haruka learns to let go of her hate, a group of vampires sets their sights on destroying the Sailor Senshi.
As per usual, I do not and will not ever own the rights to Sailor Moon...Toei refuses to sell them. As for the characters, they were created by the wonderful and awesome Naoko Takeuchi. I bow down to her awesomeness.
Dozo minna-san!
They have walked among us for hundreds of years. At first glance, they appear to be normal humans, but a dark thirst drives them. They need no food or drink to live, only fresh blood. Their preferred sources of food are humans. They cunningly stalk their prey through seduction and guise, some never killing their prey for fear of suspicion. But few humans ever truly remember what happen after the encounter. No one truly knows how many vampires there are in the world or where they come from. All that is known is that many of these creatures of the night pose a threat to humans. I say many and not all for there are a scarce few houses of vampires that help humans, but at great risk. I have dedicated my life to finding ways of stopping the evil ones, but to no avail. All I can reveal to the reader of this final entry is how to kill a vampire. Many of the myths held true in these dark ages are not true. Vampires are able to walk around at all hours of the day, though the sunlight does irritate their eyes. Crucifixes are of no use; they are immune to such symbols. The true way to kill a vampire is as follows: decapitation, silver, and intense flames though this is the most difficult way.
I pray that whoever reads this will carry on my work. The evil vampires must be stopped at all costs. They seek nothing more than total domination of this world and its inhabitants. Protect yourself at all times and may God be with you.
Brother Francis

A gloved hand closed the old leather bound book and replaced it on the shelf. The hand reached up and adjusted the mirrored sunglasses. The dirty blonde haired figure turned and walked out of the large mansion's basement. The figure pulled on a black leather jacket and left the house. A leg was thrown over a black sports motorcycle. The figure pulled off the sunglasses and placed a black helmet on, teal eyes glinting briefly in the fading sunlight.
A woman came out of the house and stared at the blonde. She had long, dark green hair, garnet eyes, and wore a purple dress suit. "You can't keep doing this Haruka-san. You're family is dead. There's no future if you keep doing this!"
Ten'ou Haruka looked at her. "Quit lecturing me about being Sailor Uranus Setsuna-san. I don't care. All I care about is finding the monsters that killed my family and returning the favor. Now leave me the hell alone!" She started the bike and drove off, not looking back.
Meioh Setsuna watched Haruka drive off and she sighed. "As you wish Haruka."
- - - - - - - - - -
Kaioh Michiru sighed as she stared out over the city of Tokyo. Behind her were the bustling happy sounds of happy partygoers. She hated coming to these parties, but she had to for her family and for appearances. She set her glass of wine down on the railing of the balcony and walked away. She walked down to the garden and stopped at a rose bush. She inhaled the sweet fragrance of the roses and smiled.
"A beautiful lady such as yourself shouldn't be alone on a night like this. No telling what sort of bad things are about," a man said.
Michiru turned and saw a burly man in a black suit leering down at her. "I am not in the mood for any tricks sir. Say what you must and leave me be."
"I'll be having the pleasure of your company tonight," he grinned and suddenly grabbed her, forcing her back against a wall in the garden. Michiru calmly watched him as he smiled lustfully at her. "If you tell anyone I'll kill you."
Michiru suddenly hurled the man off of her. "Leave now before I kill you human!" she snapped, baring her vampire fangs at the man. He screamed like a small child and ran away. Michiru straightened and smiled as she pulled off the fake vampire teeth. She sighed and bowed her head before disappearing into the darkness, her hand wrapping around a strange pen in her purse.

"You found Uranus?" an excited blonde haired girl exclaimed, her hair in pigtails.
Setsuna nodded. "She refuses to fight with us again though. She is determined to find the vampires that killed her family and take revenge upon them."
The blonde, Tsukino Usagi, sighed, her excitement fading. "So what do we do now?" she asked. "Ami-chan, any ideas on what we could do?"
Mizuno Ami shook her head. "I don't know," she said.
Hino Rei sighed. "So what do we do now?"
Kino Makoto shrugged. "Keep asking her about it?"
"That might drive her further away," Aino Minako said.
"What about the other two Senshi? Neptune and Saturn?" Ami asked.
"I found Saturn again," Setsuna said. "I'm going tomorrow to the orphanage to pick her up."
"But Hotaru-chan is okay, right?" Usagi asked.
Setsuna nodded. "She's fine."
"What about Neptune?" Rei asked.
"I have no idea where she is," Setsuna admitted. "She has not been reborn yet or she has yet to be awakened."

Haruka slipped a silver stake into her hand and confidently walked into the blood bar. Blaring music assaulted her ears, making her wince inwardly. A woman with flowing black hair walked up to her. "Only members are allowed in," she said.
"Does it look like I care?" Haruka muttered, brushing past her.
The woman grabbed her arm in a tight grip. "This is our bar human. Only guests of a true vampire are allowed in!"
Haruka suddenly grinned. "So you're a real vampire then?"
"I am. What of it human?" she demanded.
The blonde spun the stake in her hand and rammed it into the vampire's heart. She screamed in pain and burst into flames and ash. "That," Haruka hissed, pulling two more stakes out as the music screeched to a halt. Every patron looked at Haruka. "Whose next bloodsuckers?" she challenged.
As the vampires rose to their feet, Haruka realized that charging into a blood bar might not have been the best idea. She backed away until her back was facing a wall. Two vampires suddenly charged in when one of the bystanders tripped one up and slammed a stake into its heart. The figure rose to her feet, tossing her reddish black hair over her shoulder. She wore a red shirt under a black and red jacket, silver designs sewn onto the leather jacket, loose black leather pants, and black boots.
"You!" several of the vampires hissed.
"So desu," the figure said with a grin. "Any takers?" she asked. Many of the vampires backed away. She shook her head. "Then I'm out of here." She turned and grabbed Haruka, hauling the blonde out of the building.
"Let me go!" Haruka demanded, struggling to break free. She tried to ram a stake into the woman's heart but she easily knocked the silver stake away. She threw Haruka to the ground as a flash of blinding light erupted behind them in the building.
"I just saved your life human," the woman said.
Haruka glared up at her. "I don't need help from a vampire! You're all evil!"
The woman turned and glared at Haruka. "Evil? Not all vampires are evil. Many are now switching to drinking cloned blood. And I'm not a vampire."
"Oh really?" Haruka demanded.
The woman looked down at Haruka. "Nor am I a human."
"Then what exactly are you?" Haruka demanded, rising to her feet.
"Some strange mixture of vampire and human," she said. "You need to realize there are good vampires out in the world."
"Yeah right," she muttered.
"I could have left you to die in there with the fire bomb," she said.
"So why didn't you?" Haruka demanded.
"Because my vampire family cares about life. I don't care why you were in there. Just leave vampires alone. You can't do much against them."
"I won't stop until I get revenge for my family," Haruka said.
The woman narrowed her eyes. "They were killed by vampires?"
"Yeah…"
"You're Ten'ou Haruka, aren't you?" she accused.
"So what if I am?"
The woman sighed and tossed her hair out of her face. "I can help you."
"Help me?" Haruka repeated.
"I can train you to fight vampires. You got lucky with that one in the bar. Next time you may not be so fortunate."
"Why should I trust you?" Haruka demanded.
"That's your call. But I will train you if you want me to."
"Who are you?" Haruka asked.
"Vampiru," she replied.
"I've heard of you," Haruka said. "But I thought it was only a story."
Vampiru shook her head. "I'm as real as the Sailor Senshi." She studied Haruka for a few moments. "You are strong, I'll admit that. And you've studied your enemy. A sign of a competent warrior."
"Quit the compliments and get to the training," Haruka snapped.
Vampiru shook her head. "But you lack discipline and can easily be killed where you are now."
"Why the hell do you care so much about me dying?" the blonde demanded.
"Because life is important to everyone Ten'ou."
"I don't need lectures," she muttered and turned to leave. She blinked in surprise when Vampiru appeared before her in a blur.
"Never turn your back on a vampire Ten'ou."
"So now you're going to train me?"
"You asked me to train you, or have you changed your mind?" Vampiru asked.
"I'll train," Haruka decided.
"I will not go easy on you human."
"Whatever."
"Follow me," Vampiru ordered.
"To where?"
"Suspicious, that's good. We're going to my family's mansion."
"Your family's mansion?"
She nodded. "My father is Blood Dracul."
"As in Dracula?" Haruka asked.
"That was his brother, my uncle," Vampiru answered. "My father is a good man. He is honorable and protective of humans. That's why he fell in love with my mother…even if I was the result."
"You're an outcast in the vampire world," Haruka figured.
Vampiru nodded. "And in the human world. Now come."
"Not without my motorcycle."

Haruka walked into the large mansion and was stunned by its beauty. A man in elegant black clothes and a cape descended the stairs. "Vampiru!" he exclaimed happily. "How did it go?"
"It was a success, even if there was a minor problem."
"Problem?" the man asked.
Vampiru motioned to Haruka. "This is Ten'ou Haruka Father."
Dracul looked Haruka over. "I see. And she is here because?"
"She wishes to avenge her family. I doubt anyone could dissuade her."
Dracul smiled faintly. "You're probably right. So Ten'ou, can you fight?"
"I can hold my own against a group of humans," Haruka returned.
"How many humans?" Dracul inquired.
The blonde shrugged. "Maybe between five and ten. Depends on the day and what mood I'm in."
"I brought her here so she could learn how to fight and not die," Vampiru said.
"She can begin training tomorrow. For now let her rest. That is an order Ten'ou. As long as you live here, you will abide by my rules, is that clear?"
"Seems fair," Haruka agreed.
"This way," Vampiru said, leading the blonde up the stairs. "Get plenty of rest. You'll need it for tomorrow."
Haruka nodded as Vampiru opened the doors to an extravagant room. "Wow…"
"Before we start tomorrow we can go and get any belongings you have that you want," Vampiru said.
The blonde walked in the room and nodded. "Okay."
"Only my Father and I live here, so you don't need to worry about other vampires. And the doors and walls are reinforced steel."
"Thanks."
"Let me know if you need anything," she said and walked out, closing the door behind her.
Haruka walked further into the room and tossed her bag on the bed. She stepped out onto the balcony and took a deep breath of night air in. She stared up at the moon and sighed. Please let me be able to avenge my family, she prayed. She stayed there for several minutes before walking back into the room. She locked the doors and emptied out her bag. A strange pen fell out and gleamed in the lights. Haruka picked up and looked at the henshin pen. "After I finish this, I will return to the Senshi…if I'm still alive then for I'll have nothing left." She set the pen down and reclined on the bed. She closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.

Michiru closed the door to her room and locked it. She changed into her bedclothes and crawled into her soft bed. She pulled the covers over her head and closed her eyes. "I hate this life," she whispered. "I want to find my soulmate. Or at least someone to love me for who I am…not who my family is." She wiped her eyes and curled up into a ball. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Booted feet rushed down the hall. A second pair of feet thudded against the marble floors as well, keeping an even pace with the first pair of feet. The pair crashed through the double doors that led to the ballroom and skidded to a halt, glaring at the carnage before them.
"We were too late," the smaller woman said softly.
"No," the other woman said. "I don't see the Queen or Princess here, nor the other Senshi. Come on!" The two ran out of the ballroom and went out to the gardens. Guards were fighting off an army of men swarming from Earth.
"There!" the shorter woman said, pointing to the side and to the upper balcony. They could see the others running. Without a word the two leapt up to the floor and joined the others as a group of men appeared.
"Surrender and we'll make your deaths quick," the silver haired man said.
"Never Kunzite," the tall woman said.
"The great Sailor Uranus. I've been waiting for a chance to fight you," Kunzite said with a grin.
Uranus pulled her Space Sword out. "Come on then."
"Matte!" Venus shouted.
"Protect the Princess! That's your mission, remember?" Uranus snapped.
"No go!" the smaller woman said. The other four Senshi reluctantly left.
"Ready Neptune?" Uranus asked softly.
"Hai," Neptune agreed.
"The two of you stand no chance against the four Generals!" Kunzite laughed.
Uranus smiled. "Oh really?" she questioned. "Space Sword Blaster!"
"Submarine Reflection!"
The two attacks slammed into two of the Generals, killing them. "Now it's a bit more fair," Uranus grinned.
Kunzite charged in with the other General, Zoicite. The two Outer Senshi fought them off. Uranus risked a quick glance over to Neptune and saw that she had easily defeated Zoicite. The blonde Senshi's eyes widened in horror when a dark red haired woman appeared behind Neptune and slammed her staff into the Senshi's back.
"NEPTUNE!" Uranus screamed. Her eyes narrowed and she violently backhanded Kunzite. She slammed her sword into his heart and wrenched it free. She turned to the woman stared at her with hate-filled teal eyes. "You'll pay for that Beryl."
"I think not," the evil queen said.
Uranus frowned and grunted in pain as Kunzite used the last bit of his strength to stab his sword through the Wind Senshi's abdomen. She fell to her knees and looked up at Beryl. "One day…you will be stopped…and killed…" she vowed. She fell to the ground and inched her way to Neptune as Beryl left. "Wait for me…Neptune…" Her eyes closed as darkness overtook her.

Haruka bolted upright in bed, cold sweat clinging to her skin, the dream still fresh in her mind. "What the hell was that?" she muttered, wiping sweat from her brow. Little did she know that across town, Michiru had been jerked awake by the same dream.
