As vampires go, I'm a pretty pathetic one. If I try to fight another vampire, I usually lose - badly. I got next to nothing for fighting skills and, relatively speaking, I'm not all that strong. Sure I'm stronger than I was when I'm mortal, but...not that much.

My extra senses work, though the one that's supposed to tell me if I'm danger doesn't always give me enough warning to react. Sometimes it's basically like, "Hey look out for-" then a punch hits me squarely in the nose.

Not fun.

Then there's the fact that I have a conscience. Having a sense of conscience makes me pretty much an outsider among my kind. (There's a couple others that I know of that don't like to harm humans but that's about it.) To be honest, I really don't care. I'd take the love and acceptance of my mortal family and friends over fitting in with my own kind, hands down.

Of course, when I say things like that, I get taunted with, "Well, what will you do when they're all gone and you're still here?" I honestly don't know. Maybe I'll be close with their descendants. Maybe I'll decide to start a new life somewhere else. Maybe I'll decide to go into hiding. But any of those choices, to me, are better than than becoming immoral.

There, I said it.
