PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION BEFORE READING THIS STORYBIT!

It was with an odd sense of relief that Minnie went back to school, ready to put the last few days behind her. With the semester slowly coming to an end, everything appeared to have calmed down, and Minnie even started humming to herself as she walked down the familiar hallway. Why shouldn't she be happy? Their enemies had been defeated, her friends were safe, and despite the accidental bite, she wasn't a vampire. The only thing wrong with the day was that she was still hungry, despite having a large breakfast that morning. She merely shrugged it off, and when she saw Donald and Daisy turn a corner in front of her, she happily greeted them, and was given plenty of hugs by her witch friend.

"I was so worried, Minnie!" Daisy shook her friend by the shoulders back and forth, while Donald merely waved. "I stayed up all night, thinking about what I was going to do if you became a vampire! It's such a miracle that you're still mortal! You're so amazing!"

"Relax, will you?" Donald touched Daisy's shoulder, trying to stop the shaking. "First off, Mickey only got his teeth into her because those two morons tripped. Second off, it only lasted five seconds before Minnie punched him off. How could a bite that small have any effect on her?"

"I suppose I should apologize for hitting him." Minnie frowned, figuring she had as much blame in that problem as he did. "Where is he, anyway? He's usually at school before I am."

Donald jabbed a thumb behind him, growing quickly annoyed. "Oswald showed up again, so they're using second period to fight… again."

Minnie pouted, and began following her fowl friends. "Again? Oswald lost fair and square, so what's he still doing picking fights with Mickey?" Her stomach began to growl, and she rubbed her belly in a fruitless effort to calm it down. Why was she so hungry? Maybe she'd need to eat an extra big lunch to make up for it.

Daisy found the classroom easily enough, judging from the desks that were being haphazardly tossed out of it. "He's just being stubborn. You know how men are."

Donald glared at the somewhat-insult, and Minnie approached the broken doorway first. "I'll just be a minute. Then can we hit the cafeteria? I'm just so hungry this morning…" The ducks agreed to it, and all three looked into the destroyed classroom. The only ones inside were Mickey and Oswald, having lost since discarded their weapons and now just childishly exchanging clawed fists. All semblances of seriousness were swindled when one heard their verbal exchanges as they continued to fight.

"Accept defeat already, you miserable excuse for a monster!" There was Oswald, holding onto Mickey's hands and trying to forcibly shove him backwards.

"I already beat you six ways to Thursday! Unless you want to make it to Friday, say Uncle!" There was Mickey, shoving him back twice as hard, and using his 'royal' dialect to show superiority.

"I'll make you go through the entire family tree before I'm even halfway finished with you!"

"If you want to see a tree, I'll make sure to give you a proper burial!"

Minnie sighed, feeling as if her IQ was dropped just from hearing these insipid insults. At least it looked like Mickey was capable of handling himself, so she didn't need to interfere. Compared to past fights she had seen in this crazy school, this one was bordering on dull. Even when Oswald snapped out of his grip, and used his claws to slash at Mickey's arm, she could have yawned… except she noticed that when Mickey was attacked, he had started to bleed. It was no trouble, really, vampires could heal such a wound within a minute. Yet Minnie was fixated on that cut – specifically on the trickles of blood dripping down his arm. Her stomach growled again.

"Well, looks like they don't need us." Daisy clapped her hands once. "Let's get to the cafeteria." She looked at Minnie for confirmation, but Minnie wasn't listening. Her eyes had widened, and she was completely transfixed on that one spot. "… Minnie? You okay?"

Minnie couldn't hear her. Her stomach was now in pain from so much hunger, and that blood… all of that precious, pretty looking blood… "I… I…" Her limbs began to shiver, and she licked her lips slovenly, having never felt so overcome with hunger before in her entire life. It had to be more than hunger – it was making her insides quiver, as if she was on the throes of ecstasy. "I… I gotta have it!"

Mickey hadn't even noticed her at this point, so determined to give his brother the butt-kicking he so rightly deserved. That's why he was completely off guard when Minnie suddenly tackled him down onto his back, grabbed his bleeding arm, and chomped hard on the wound. As for Minnie, she was quite merrily as she sat on him and proceed to draw out as much blood as she could, lost in her feeding. She was reminded of home, when her mother served tomato soup, and fun times at the pool while sipping cold juice. She sipped, she slurped, she completely lost her ladylike table manners and kept at it until her stomach was satisfied. With a long sigh, she dropped Mickey's arm, smiled brightly. "Phew! That really hit the spot! I feel so much better now…"

Then it hit Minnie just exactly what she had done. In an instant, all of her happiness was gone, and she stared down at her hands, trying to find a reason for what she had just done. "What… why did I… what just happened?!" She looked to Donald and Daisy for an answer – "What did I just do?!" – and saw that they were equally stunned, with big eyes, blushing cheeks and open jaws. Even Oswald looked too shocked to make a move.

Daisy pointed at Minnie, struggling to speak. "You… you just got to third base with Mickey!"

"What?!" Minnie instantly jumped to her feet, not realizing she was standing on top of Mickey who had yet to say a word about any of this. "No I didn't! I just bit him, that's all!"

"That's the same thing for a vampire!" Daisy explained in a high pitch shriek, clutching her chest in her fluster. "Oh my gosh, Minnie, and in public!" Mickey's bite the day before had been accidental, but everyone here had clearly seen Minnie make a mad dash for that arm. "I thought you said you weren't a vampire!"

"I am not!" Minnie shook her head hard, refusing to believe it. "I still have my reflection! I had garlic toast this morning! I don't have any weird powers and…" Only then did she remember who she was standing on. "Mickey! Oh, I am so sorry!" She knelt down to properly apologize and see his expression, for she had thought that she had hurt him during her wild bite. "I didn't mean it, I just…" She trailed off, seeing that he wasn't in pain, annoyed, or even confused. This was a face of sheer pleasure, as if he had just experienced the happiest day of his life. His face was flushed, his eyes were dizzy, and that was one unhealthy grin he was wearing. "… You knock that off! I only bit you!" She slapped his face several times until he finally began to sit up, though still looking far too happy.

"And here I thought we would save that for the wedding…" Mickey mumbled, weakly trying to stand up. "I had no idea you were so bold! If you had wanted some, all you had to do was ask!"

"I don't want any!" Minnie snapped, beginning to back up. "I'm not a vampire! I… I don't know what came over me, but I do not want your blood! Or any blood! I am a completely normal person!" She refused to believe otherwise, and stomped her foot as she loudly emphasized. "That wasn't… anything! And it will never, ever happen again!"

Donald worriedly looked to Daisy, not convinced about Minnie's loud declaration. "I think we should get the Doc. Something weird is definitely going on around here."

"ARE YOU ALL DONE IGNORING ME?!" Oswald roared, furious that he hadn't been mentioned in over four hundred words of this silly tale. "I can't believe you would interrupt my fight for such… a vulgar display! You should be ashamed of yourselves!"  He wildly jabbed his finger in the air, demanding his tantrum to be heard. "I haven't even gotten to first base with Ortensia, and you two have the gall to go all the way, right in front of me!"

"We did not go all the way!" Minnie shrieked, putting her hands on her ears in an effort to drown out these embarrassing words. "I just bit him! That's all!"

"And now you're bragging about it!" Oswald hissed, curling up his hands into fists, ready to resume the fight. "I will definitely have my revenge today!" Once again, he launched himself at his brother, and the fight resumed, though Mickey was now much more eager to finish it up.

The ducks were in luck, as Doctor Goofy just so happened to stroll down this hallway, oblivious to the chaos. Daisy caught sight of him, and yanked down on his white sleeve, spinning him around. "Doctor, you're just in time! Something really strange has happened to Minnie!"

Goofy blinked once, looking inside the classroom. "… She has a craving fer blood?"

Daisy let him go, startled at the quick conclusion. "Yeah! How could you tell?"

Goofy pointed back to the classroom. "I figured that's why she's bitin' him."

The ducks whirled back around and saw that, in the span of seconds, Minnie had wound up on top of Mickey again and was now enjoying his injured shoulder, much to Oswald's frozen disgust and Mickey's slumped pleasure. "Someone make me stop!" Minnie yelled, forcibly drawing to pull her mouth away from Mickey's flesh. "It's… it's just so good!"

And all of this before the first period bell had even rung.
