Kamate General Hospital

Summary: This takes place in the future. Karin is now about to graduate high school and trying to decide on what career to be in. Her younger sister is now a full vampire, and prefers the blood of perverts. Karin finds out that something else will enhance her ability to make the miserable better... especially miserable Karin. M/F

Karin Maaka is a very troubled woman. Not only did she have the problems of being a gaijin in Japan, she was a vampire to boot. However, she wasn't the typical vampire; instead of draining victims of their blood, she actually gave them her blood. Anyway, Karin was in her senior year in high school. She was asked what she wanted her major to be in college.
"Erm... well... I haven't given it much thought." Karin said.
"Karin, we can't protect you forever. You have to grow up sometime." Calera admonished.
"I know mom... but I'm just scared that I'll make the wrong decision." Karin said.
"Well, if everything always went as we wanted, life would be very boring." Calera said. "Sometimes, you just got to go for it and hope for the best."
"I will, mom." Karin said. She then left the home for school.
"Humph. Kids today." Calera said.

At school, Karin took her seat near Usui. The teacher came in and the class stood up.
"Stand! Bow!" The class president barked. The class bowed to the teacher.
"Good morning, sensei." They said in unison.
"Good morning." The teacher replied.
"Sit!" the class president ordered. They did so.
"Class, we have a special treat for you. We will be touring Kamate general hospital next week. Those of you interested in a career in medicine should pay very close attention on this trip." The teacher said. Karin was very nervous about this; after all, she'd be surrounded by people who would be in intense pain and suffering. She started to think of a way out of this. She thought about faking being sick; however, she had already missed too much school as it was. She'd already had been to summer school every year since she started school. No, she'd have to bite the bullet and go with them. Karin was dreading this; of course, she did not know that worrying about a situation does not lessen its impact.

"Anju, where are you going tonight?" Calera asked.
"The usual Goth club. I know a few perverts I haven't hit yet." Anju said.
"Just be back before sunrise." Calera replied. Calera envied her daughter a bit; all Anju had to do was excite her victims a bit and they'd start bleeding at the nose. No nasty puncture marks left on the neck. Well, Anju went out for the evening.

"Have you seen what's happened to Rimino-san? He's hardly interested in girls anymore!" A woman in the line to the club said. She was with her friends, and Anju was nearby.
"Really. So like, what happened to him?" Another girl asked.
"Dunno. I saw him earlier today and he wasn't all over me as usual." The first one said. Of course, what happened was Anju took him into a corner and excited him. She then drank the resulting nosebleed. He passed out and she erased his memory. Anyway, Anju was in the club when an American guy approached her.
"Hey babe, can I buy you a drink?" He asked.
"Sure..." Anju said. She could tell he was a shameless pervert. He never knew what hit him. They had a drink and Anju went into an alcove with him. Anju leaned forward and shook her C cup tits at him. The victim, naturally, smiled and egged her on. Anju then felt up this pervert's chest, and that's when he started bleeding from the nose. Anju quickly bared her fangs and started drinking this. Once she had drunk her fill, she dropped him like a hot potato. He fell on the floor with a thud.
"Sucker." Anju said as she walked away.

The dreaded day was here at last for Karin. The class boarded the train and went to the hospital. Usui held Karin's hand as they went there.
"Just relax, Karin-chan. I'll take you to dinner tomorrow night." Usui said.
"Th-th-thank you." Karin nervously stammered.

When they got there, the class was introduced to a doctor Sanjuro Watanabe. He would serve as a guide for the group. He is an older man with white hair and brown eyes. He was in a suit and white lab coat.
"Thank you for this honor, O-Watanabe-sensei." The class said in unison as they bowed to him.
"You are most welcome, class. It is an honor to teach." Dr. Watanabe replied as he bowed to them. He then showed them the entrance area.
"This is where we admit patients who aren't in critical condition. The administrator here helps the patients fill out the forms. Then they get to wait for the first available RN." Dr. Watanabe said. He gestured to a series of doors.
"Over there is where the nurses deliver a series of preliminary tests that will determine which doctor they should see first." Dr. Watanabe said.

He led the class over to another hallway and down it. Then he led them into a large room where several patients were lying on beds. One of them was attended to by a young woman, massaging him with oil.
"This is the herbal medicine department. Right now, this patient is being rubbed down with vampsbane oil." Dr. Watanabe said.
"Vampsbane oil? OH NO!" Karin thought. She suddenly felt very queasy. She then grabbed her stomach and doubled over.
"Karin-chan, are you o.k.?" The teacher asked.
"That smell... it's making... me sick..." Karin said.
"Let's get her out of here." Usui said. He then put an arm around Karin and led her away from the place. In the hallway, Karin recovered a bit. They returned to the tour once it had left the room.
"Forgive me, please. I am very allergic to vampsbane. Just the smell is enough to turn my stomach into knots." Karin said as she politely bowed to the doctor. "Please continue, o-sensei."
Next, they came into a room where a young bishonen man was attached to a bunch of machines. He looked as if he had been run over by a train. He had several braces on his limbs and torso.
"This poor man ran into a lot of bad luck in his life. This is his fourth time in intensive care. This time, he was struck by the 17:35 to Kobe." The doctor said. Karin felt her blood stir. She realized this man was the kind of guy she was attracted to. Karin quickly bolted from the room. Usui sweatdropped.
"Erm... she's very squeamish." Usui said. The doctor shrugged it off.
"We get that a lot. Let's check out the next room." The doctor said. The class went away. Then Karin came back into the room, fangs bared.
"Don't worry... this will help you..." She said. Then she plunged her fangs into his neck, and then she gave him some of her blood and pulled back.
"You will be feeling better soon..." Karin said.

That's when a nurse entered the room, carrying a bedpan. She dropped the bedpan and screamed.
"I heard some weird sound in here and came in. I found him like this." Karin said.
"Wha-what are those marks on his neck? And why do you have blood coming from your mouth?" The nurse asked nervously. Karin checked her chin over, and found she had blood on her chin. Karin sweatdropped.
"Erm... this is not what you think it is." Karin said.
"You-you're a vampire!" The nurse shouted.
"I am not a vampire! Vampires can't stand the sun! See that the sunlight is coming in here?" Karin said, gesturing to the window. Outside, it was a bright, sunny day.
"Well... how did you get that blood around your mouth?" The nurse asked.
"Erm... well... I don't really know..." Karin said. Karin knew she was in a corner now. There was no way out of it unless a miracle occurred.
That's just what happened.

The man on the bed woke up and opened his eyes.
"Ughn... wha..." The man said.
"You're awake! This is a miracle!" The nurse said. Karin used this distraction to sneak out of the picture. The nurse then called for a doctor. In her excitement, she forgot about Karin. Meanwhile, Karin rejoined the tour. They were wrapping it up at the gift shop.
"Well, that's it. Any questions?" The doctor asked. Silence answered him.
"I hope you have been paying attention. There will be a quiz over this later." The teacher said.
Damn, I'll fail again, Karin thought. She then felt a hand on her shoulder.
"I'll tell you about what happened on the way back." Usui said as he touched her shoulder. Karin felt relieved at this. She felt relieved at this.
On the way back, Karin and Usui talked quietly to themselves. Since the people around them were wearing headphones or talking to themselves, nobody overheard them.
"You bit that guy, didn't you?" Usui asked.
"I couldn't help myself, Usui-kun. When I see someone suffering that much, something just takes over." Karin replied.
"Did anyone catch you?" He asked.
"Yea... but I managed to confuse her and get away." Karin said.

"This patient isn't missing any blood; in fact, he seems to have more than he did this morning." Dr. Watanabe said. He was just as confounded and confused as the nurse was.
"There's something else here as well. Something that needs further study. The patient's broken bones have healed completely. It's a medical miracle." Dr. Watanabe said.
"I don't understand it at all, doctor. We should bring this girl in for questioning." The nurse said.

That evening, the Markers were watching the news and enjoying a nightcap. The news then showed a drawing of Karin.
"This girl is wanted for questioning after a medical miracle occurred today. She was seen in a hospital after a man who had been struck by a train suddenly recovered from his injuries. There were two puncture wounds on his neck. If you know this girl, please contact police immediately. I will emphasize there are no criminal charges against her." The newscaster said.

Calera and Henry Marker spat out the blood they were drinking in shock.
"Karin is all over the news! How the hell do we recover from this one!?" Henry asked.
"KARIN!!!! GET IN HERE NOW!!!!" Calera screamed at the top of her voice. A drowsy Karin entered a bit later, attired in a robe.
"Yes...?" Karin asked.
"You picture is all over the news! You went and bit someone at the hospital today, and they made a miraculous recovery! Now they want to know how you did it!" Calera said. Karin sweatdropped.
"..." was all Karin could say in her shock. At that point, however, the phone rang. Henry answered it.
"Yes, this is Marker." He said.
"Marker-sama, this is Usui-kun. May I talk to Karin for a bit?" Usui asked.
"I'm afraid she's a bit preoccupied now." Henry replied.
"Well, let her know that they had a sketch of her on the evening news. I'm worried for her." Usui said.
"We know, Usui-kun. Her mother and I are discussing what we should do about it." Henry said. "Have a good evening." He then hung up the phone.
"There's really only one solution to this. Karin will have to give herself up and deny everything." A voice said. Anju came in and sat down. She was clad in her usual low-cut Goth dress with a short miniskirt on it.
"Anju... well... I don't see an alternative to the matter." Henry said. Calera grimaced at the prospect of Karin being questioned by the police. She felt Karin wasn't strong enough to handle the pressure.
"Damn this! Fine, we're going to the police now - together. Whatever you do, don't tell them you're a vampire!" Calera said with great anger in her voice.

At the police station, Calera agreed to let Karin be questioned, as long as she was present. The policeman took a friendly approach to Karin.
"Earlier today, a guy in the hospital you were at made a miraculous recovery. A nurse said she found you in the room with him and two puncture wounds on his neck. What exactly happened?" The policeman asked.
"Well, I was outside the room and I heard this bumping sound. So I went in and found him like he was, with those puncture marks on his neck." Karin said.
"Weren't you worried that someone might hurt you?" The policeman asked.
"I didn't think about it before doing it. When I was in there, I thought about summoning a nurse, but one entered before I could." Karin said.
"Well, they tested him after you left. He had a substance in his blood that nobody has ever seen before. It rapidly accelerates healing. Scientists are attempting to duplicate it in the labs as we speak. Are you sure there was nothing else you saw or heard?" The policeman asked.
"Yes." Karin replied. The questioning continued in that manner for a good while, but Karin never admitted the truth.
"Well, we'll let you go, but if you can remember anything else about the incident, please call us immediately." The policeman said.
"We will, officer." Calera replied.
As they went home, Calera breathed a big sigh of relief.
"You dodged a wooden stake this time, Karin. Next time, we may not be so lucky." Calera said. They had to rush home; the sun was starting to rise.

Karin was sound asleep in class the next day. She hadn't slept in over 24 hours, and was showing it. The teacher was not amused about this. He took out a ruler and slammed it against her desk hard.
WHACK!
Karin woke up immediately, startled by the noise.
"Ah!" Karin squealed.
"Karin-chan, you are not permitted to sleep in class. You must be punished." The teacher said. He then ordered her to stand outside of class holding up two buckets of water.
"Sensei, please forgive Karin-chan. She was up all night being questioned by the police." Usui said.
"That is not an acceptable excuse. She should not have wandered away from the class." The teacher said. Karin then went outside, a bucket of water in each hand. After about 10 minutes of this, she was getting tired. She wondered why she was constantly getting into these situations; it just did not seem fair. She felt trapped in a cage with no way out. It was about another 10 minutes later that Karin passed out from exhaustion.
SPLASH!!
Water went all over the floor as Karin collapsed. She got her uniform soaking wet in the front to boot. When the teacher went out to check on her, he found her lying in a puddle, out cold. Usui came and picked her up.
"Please, sensei. She needs to see the nurse." Usui said.
"Very well. Take her there and hurry back." The teacher said.

Karin rested in the nurses' office. While she was there, the teacher came in to see her.
"Karin-chan, I have taught school for 20 years now. I have never had a student fail. You were sent to me because I have been known to work miracles on problem students. However, I cannot work with a student that is always out of my class." The teacher said.
"Please forgive me, sensei. I have a long history of health problems. I want to learn. However, I get sick quite easily." Karin said.
"Well then, you leave me little alternative. I must set you up for after-school intensive learning." The teacher said. "You will remain after school on the days you are here until I am satisfied that you will pass. I will also be visiting your parents on this."
"Sensei, I work after school. I cannot stay in class." Karin said.
"This I will discuss with your parents." The teacher said.

That evening, Anjou was out at a club when she sensed a pervert. She came up to him and smiled at him. He smiled back at her. The two conversed and Anju pulled him into a storage closet. He was anxious with anticipation at having her. Anju didn't let her motives be known at first. She merely leaned forward and invited him to look down her dress. He did so.
"Mmm... most impressive." He said as he got close to her. Anju was a bit confused. Most perverts would bleed at the nose by now. Anju decided to go further and wrapped herself around him. He returned her embrace, pulling her hot body close to his. Still his nose didn't bleed.
Damn! What the hell is going on here? He still doesn't have a nosebleed. Anju thought. She ramped it up further and reached between his legs. She felt his 16 cm rod getting stiff. She was getting frustrated. He still wasn't getting a nosebleed. He responded to her by reaching over and fondling her tits. Anju really didn't like having her tits felt up like that. She couldn't take anymore.
"All right. I know you're a pervert; why aren't you bleeding at the nose!?" Anju asked out of sheer frustration.
"I work in a drug manufacturing plant making hyper-coagulants." He replied. "I inhale a lot of the stuff. Since I started working there, I haven't had a nosebleed."
Damn, she thought. She had no alternative but to bear her fangs and bite his neck. She drew some of his blood out, and then erased his mind as he fell to the ground.
I'm never going to bite you again. You're too much fucking effort. Anju thought. She had left the club looking very angry.
