In this chapter, Arika and the other vampire girls discuss the upcoming performance of Dracula at the theater. Arika wonders why the girls didn't come to the theater with her when they were supposed to. She says that she's always wanted to be a real vampire, but now that she is, she can't even think of talking to him. She thinks that the people of the town have set a high standard for the vampires to live by, and that they've made it impossible for them to compete with them. She compares herself to a "completely different person" from before she became a vampire, and says that if she were told that she had to die, she'd never have the choice of living another life. She feels that the normal life she could have had was never normal, because she met her, and now she has to take the blame for that.
