Mr. Yugo paced back and forth in his home library. Anthony was mad, he thought. On his way home, he received the flier from a complete stranger. This proves that if you give power to a young person, they are prone to misuse it. Did he not warn Anthony? Did he not warn him enough? He placed a call to him and asked him to come to his house urgently even though it was almost 9PM. He managed to sit down as he read the content of the flier again, as he tapped one foot of his on the ground repeatedly. Anthony arrived at his doorstep half an hour later. By then, his rage had calmed down. Nevertheless, he still had a lot of questions for the younger boy.“What is this about?” He asked Anthony as he raised the flier up.“What? What is that?” Mr. Yugo handed the flier over to him and Anthony denied being responsible.“LEGALIZE WEREWOLVES AND VAMPIRES MOVES AGAIN. END THE BAN!” That was what the flier read. Once it clicked, Anthony burst out in laughter to the amusement and anger of Mr. Yu
Jess was fuming. She was sure she would be screaming in few minutes if her boyfriend and the stranger seated on the chair next to theirs uttered one more word in disagreement to her opinion. “Vampires and werewolves are real and that’s it! I’m done with this stupid argument.” She said, hitting both of her hands on the library desk she was using.“Jess, calm down.” Her boyfriend laughed. His new friend laughed too.“Alright, Jess. You win. They are real.” The boy said. Jess gave him a small smile, “Finally…” then she turned to her boyfriend, waiting for him to acknowledge it also, before the stranger added, “Only in books and movies and your imagination.” And this caused them to start arguing again.“Have you ever seen a werewolf in real life?” Jaden, her boyfriend, asked her.“No!”“Have you seen a vampire?” The other boy asked.“No!”“Have you seen a fairy or a mermaid or a flying fish or a swimming bird?”“What has this got to do with anything?” Jess asked. She had started to beco
Jess was shocked but that lasted for only a split second. Her reflex would have made her run but she was stubborn. She, rather, brought her phone out and tried to record the moment. She thought it was a unique sight to behold a person in real life transforming into a wolf, although frightening. Adrenaline rushed through her, she was excited and wanted to scream. It took everything in her to hold her phone tight, miles away, and catch the whole thing on camera.A deep growl escaped his lips as his skin turned dark. She heard his bone cracking as the air started to shimmer. A feeling she couldn’t denote enveloped her, she was numb. He cried out and suddenly, a black wolf was standing on his spot.When Anthony had fully turned into his wolf form, he charged at her. Immediately she realized what was happening, she dropped her phone and tried to run. She was already weak from running previously plus the wolf was way stronger and faster than she was. With only a few steps, he was able to g
“Why is she so nosy?” Anthony sighed as soon as Jessica and Jaden were out of sight.Immediately, he got up and packed all the chemistry and physics text books into his school bag. He hadn’t come here to read chemistry. He came for something else. The university's mini library was hardly used because there was a much bigger one in the main campus. The main library was so beautiful and it even had a museum in it. The e-library and ‘graphic charts' that helped aids explanation for any course, was a huge topping on the parfait.So, Anthony was confused as to why Jess and Jaden had come here instead. The University management had warned that students desist from the mini library at night. It wasn’t connected to the power supply so they had to use candles to read. It wasn’t advisable and it could cause a fire. The mini library was no safe too, as it was at the farther end of the school. It was supposed to be used only in the day time by special students who couldn’t use the public library
"I’m waiting.” Jaden reminded Jess midway into the meal, as he was becoming uncomfortable with her silence. “The problem with you us that you doubt a lot. I feel there’s no need to tell you this because you wouldn’t believe it.” Jess said, as a matter of factly. Jaden feigned annoyance and continued with his meal. After eating, he still wasn’t talking to her and Jess had began to feel bad. “Jade.” She called. He ignored her. “Jadeeee.” She whined again. After being ignored for the second time, she picked up the remote and turned the television off. He faced her. “Are you ready to talk now?” “Yeah.” She nodded, sitting on the couch beside him. “As soon as I got there, I practically saw Anthony turn into a werewolf. I know this is unbelievable, yeah, but you just have to believe me. I wonder why he came out when the moon was full. Little wonder he was so rebellious when we were arguing about werewolves. Trust me, I was about to record to show you but the wolf pounced on me. Loo
Allison had just finished her last class for the day and was supposed to catch a bus in ten minutes. She decided to grab some snacks from the tuck shop when she got a call from Cece, her big sister. “Hey, big sist.” She said, the phone was placed between her shoulders and her ear as she held her backpack with one hand and the pack of fries she just paid for, with her second hand. “Cece.” She called again because of the silence from the other end. When she managed to put the fries in her bag, she held her phone properly. “Why aren’t you speaking? Is it the service from your end? Cece? Can you hear me?” At that point, she was already strolling to the bus stop but as soon as she heard Cece say, “Ally, come home. I’m dying,” she had become dishevelled and she began to run. If it was in her power to make the bus move faster, she would have done everything. Arriving in Cece's apartment, the door was locked and she didn’t have her own key with her. “Cece!” She screamed. “Cece, are you
“Cece, let’s talk about that at home.” Jade intervened immediately, freeing himself from his cousin.He wondered why his own cousins acts like he was just a random boy dating their sister. He was their family, for Christ sake; Jess was not. At least, not yet.“He doesn’t beat me. He has never touched me.” Jessica added when she realized that the tension in the car remained the same.At home, they spent the evening listening to Cece talk about how Jaden had made her feel with his actions towards Jess previously. She had been reminded, from that action, her ordeal with Chris, her ex boyfriend.“I do not want you to be like Chris. Nobody should have a partner like Chris. No one should have to go through what I went through.” Cece said, sniffling.Allison already fell asleep. She was bored. Each time Cece had gotten drunk—which was often in the past—and Allison had come to her rescue, she somehow had to hear this story again and again; now, she could recite it like a poem.“He used to say
Chapter seven. Jessica was sick. She had begin to notice dire changes in her body that made her scared. Jade strongly believed it was part of the pregnancy package. Through out the tonight, her body temperature was fire. He turned on the AC to get the room cold but she was feeling shivering. She had both a warm bath and a cold bath at different intervals through out the night. In the morning, they were supposed to set off to the hospital but surprisingly, she was okay. She was hyper and it didn’t seem like she was ever sick. Jade still insisted they go to the hospital because it was unbelievable. At the hospital, nothing was diagnosed. She and the baby was doing fine, the doctor had said. They had only given her drugs to reduce the fatigue she complained of. Jade kissed Jess on her cheeks as he set out to school. She had decided to rest at home for the week till she was sure she was fully okay and Jade seconded this. She had the option of online classes too so she opted for that in
