the tale of Orange

Here we see Orange as a baby (sucking on a baby piggie )with her Mother. So begins our tale..

Orange was born a normal vampire child to normal parents of the un-dead realm. She was a beautiful baby, with wild jet black hair, smooth, pale skin, and glowing amber eyes.

When she was very young, Orange fell ill. “It’s quite simple,” all the doctors told her parents. “Your little girl has scurvy”. They but her on a strict diet; she was to drink exclusively orange juice. Little by little, Orange regained her strength. On the orange diet, she soon returned to the happy, healthy little vampire child she once was.

But a problem arose. The minute she was taken off the diet, Orange’s symptoms returned. She had developed a dependancy…. And she could never drink blood again.

So began the life of Orange, the fruit-vampire. Slowly, the roots of her jet-black hair started growing in a brilliant orange color, her once amber eyes became a glinttering orange, and orange freckles sprang up all over her cheeks…

To this day, there is not a single orange that can walk unprotected down a dark alleyway in the dead of night…
