The whole lecture went in unspoken; she was avoiding him after that he did not tried to look at her as well. Her heart was still beating so fast. After the class she closed her bag and got up avoiding him and the boys.
“Whoa, that was huge mess,” said Pete laughing. She heard them laughing. She was turning pink.
“Jerks,” she muttered.
This was her first day in the school, clearly a big mess. She opened her locker and put the things inside her, she got 29 number, next to her was 28, whoever was the owner had serious issues. There was graffiti stating that ‘BEWARE, RESTRICTED ZONE’.“Stupid crazy place and idiot people,” she said frustrated. The school environment was all same to her as it was in her previous school. She had only one friend in old school and that was Sara and here she had not made any friend yet, with this bad starting she thought she would belong to ‘loner group’.
She was having a lot to know about this place and those people. She stood while leaning over the locker’s door and looking around. Everyone had their lives like normal teenager, but normal was not the word in the life of Amanda.
She was almost lost in her own thoughts when someone snapped their fingers in front of her, staggering her.
He was standing in front of her with dangerously angry expressions. She looked at him with confused expressions.“Bro seems like, this girl is fascinated by your things,” said Liam mischievously.“What they are doing here? Are they here to bully me?” she thought.She looked scared stiff. He crossed his arms around his chest.She looked around, his squad was standing there, but other students also stopped by to watch.“Look, the drifters,” the boy who stole her bag was standing with crowd. The blond girl who bullied her was there too.
“That’s the show, Xavier will eat her up alive,” said the blond girl.
“What on the earth is happening?” a girl who had fawn hair walked through the crowd. She looked familiar, somehow.
“Listen, I, I have not stolen your bag,” she said terrified.Xavier has looked at her with bit of the surprise. He has met a lot of girls, he banged with many girls, he knows woman kind better than anyone, but this woman, she seemed different, she was terrified of him.Xavier had a personality, a mysterious personality where every woman could die for him or could sell of their wardrobe. This girl was different.
He looked deeply inside her eyes.“Xavier,” she heard a voice behind him. It was that fawn haired girl.
He turned and looked at her with annoyed expressions.She looked at him angrily.“What are you doing?” she asked.“That’s none of your business,” he said angrily. He was angry before but after the sight of this girl it was all clear he looked pissed off.“That is my business, you cannot bully a girl in school,” said the girl angrily.
“Stay out of my business Mila,” he said every word while clenching his teeth, he looked scary but the girl opposite to her has not felt scared at all.She was standing in front of him fearless.She walked towards Amanda and grabbed her arm and drag her with her. Before leaving Amanda has looked at Xavier and their eyes were locked until she had gone lost in the crowd.“Well bro, first you bag and now the girl was leaning on your locker,” said Liam.“I hate my things to be touch,” he growled and punched on the locker. His throw was so strong that the door fell down, broken.
**************
Meanwhile in another alternative time
“Dad, your time is over,” she said while pointing a gun towards him. Her eyes turned black.
The woman standing with him gasped.
“Zira no,” the woman screamed but she already pulled the trigger.
**************
She took him away from school’s land and let her hand go slowly.
“You are safe now, stay away from Xavier,” said Mila and turned to leave.
“Who are you?” asked Amanda.
The girl turned towards her, her eyes were cold.
“None of your business,” said the girl and walked away.
She stared at her brother.
“This country is so strange, these people are so strange,” she said, angrily and walked towards her car. She was driving school since her brother gotten admitted in the hospital.
She drove to the hospital.
“I have to find some job, medical facilities are so expensive here. I wish brother have not asked us to leave USA, We could avail medical facilities for free there but here in this new country we can’t avail this because we are not native,” she thought sadly while driving.
After a while she reached hospital.
She got out of the car and walked towards the hospital.
Turning towards the ward, she saw many patients dying but struggling for their life, she felt very upset for them.
She was passing by the ward when she saw a patient in vegetative state. She felt as if she had seen her somewhere. She looked very familiar. There were white roses on the table beside and they looked so fresh.
She walked towards the woman unconditionally. A nurse was checking upon the woman. This room looked so posh and well, it was oblivious the woman was indeed a rich woman.
She was about to touch the flowers when nurse called her, angrily.
“You are not allowed in this room,” said the nurse, angrily while looking at her as if she was looking at something very disgusting.
“What..I was just…” she was about to complete her sentence when the nurse pushed her out, harshly. She felt embarrassed because a lot of people were looking at her.
She walked towards the room where her brother was staying.
She walked in, he was eating an apple she brought for him the other day.
She hugged him.
“Are you okay?” she asked.
“Yeah, I am fine Amanda,” he said while putting his hand on her head.
When their mother died she was just a little girl, it was her brother who raised her like a father. He was her only family.
“I miss you Eric,” she said with tears in her eyes.
“I, I am fine Amanda, don’t get upset,” he said.
“Here, look what I have brought for you,” she said while handing him an album.
He looked at the album in amazement.
“Our memories,” she whispered.
“Where did you get these from he burned them,” he said, sadly.
“Brother, I have hidden few photographs, you know I could resist his torture,” she said.
He touched her cheek.
“He will not touch you now, never ever,” he said.
“I know, as long as you are here, he won’t,” she said and hugged him.
“What are you doing here?” asked the nurse, angrily.
“I have told you not to walk inside these wards,” she said, while holding her forearm.
“Julius, who allowed her here? You know they can’t walk here,” said the nurse.
Eric clenched his teeth.
“She is my sister,” he said, angrily.
The nurse let her arm go. She was looking at her in disgust.
She turned and walked towards the exit.
“Filthy dirty blood,” the nurse muttered and walked out.
“What, What did you said?” Amanda, screamed angrily and rush after her but Eric held her arm.
“Let her go,” said Eric, softly.
“No, you know what she called me,” she said, annoyed. “I can’t believe it, staff is like this,” she screamed.
“Amanda, now you want them to kick you out?” he said.
She looked at him for a while and then she took a deep breath.
“Brother, she already act strangely with me when I walked inside the room in the end,” she said.
“What? You entered Luna’s room?” said Eric, surprised.
“What? You know her?” she asked, shocked.
Eric’s expressions changed and he looked away as if he caught red handed.
“Ye..Yeh…Yeah, we all know, her name is Luna, she is in this state since seventeen years,” he said, instantly.
“But brother, she is so mysterious and more of more she looked so scared,” she said.
He took a deep breath.
“You are over thinking, she had a car accident, year ago,” he said.
There was something in his voice that made him a bit mysterious.
“Now go, you need to get fresh,” said Eric.
She looked at him confused because he never asked her to leave before.
“But Eric..” she was about to complete her sentence when another nurse walked inside.
She looked softer than the previous one.
“Bet…I mean Eric, it’s your medicine time,” she said.
He looked at her and darkness appeared in his eyes.
“Amanda, go home and lock the door as I have told you, no going out in the night,” he said.
She looked at the nurse and then to him and took a deep breath. She kissed his forehead and got up.
“I will come back tomorrow,” she said, smiling and walked out.
He hugged the album she brought.
“You know it is not safe for her to come here,” said the nurse.
He took a deep breath.
“I am her only family,” she said, sadly.
“Xavier, I have found the killer, I don’t think she is the killer, please spare her,” said Kai. A smirk appeared on Xavier's face. “I know the killer,” Xavier said. “I got it in the dungeon,” he said. Kai gasped. “But why have you just let the blame put on Amanda?” he asked. “Because, if she will live in this territory it is not safe,” he said. “Xavier, tell me who did this,” he said. “The human boy was not the target but the girl was,” Xavier said. “What? Someone wants to kill Amanda?” asked Kai. “Yeah, someone knows she is here in my territory, they did not want to kill her but to capture her,” Kai said. “Brode, bring the culprit here,” Xavier ordered. Brode walks towards the dungeon and dragged a man, who seemed human. “A human? He killed a boy?” screamed Kai. “Yeah, it is a human,” said Xavier. “He will tell next,” Xavier said. “What on the earth is happening? Why you brought me here?” said the man. Xavier rolls his eyes. “Kai, if you don’t mind, can
“I am telling you, we should not have trusted her,” she said, angrily. Amanda was sitting beside the fire, she want to ask where her grandma is but they both were so busy in their discussion.It was a small cozy hut in the middle of the forest. There was everything in the hut they need to live. She touched a beautiful crystal angel decoration piece on the mental shelf. “Zilla, there is no other option. You know what she is. We both can’t help her with her condition as we are not her species,” he said. “But trusting Daciana? It will be a good option? Oh come on Daniel, we both know she is a rogue,” she said. “Amanda is my priority,” he said. “Yeah, trusting a rogue? Seriously?” Amanda heard a voice in her head. “What?” she said, startled. “What is it?” asked Daniel. “I heard it again,” she said and then she felt her bones started cracking again. She got up and panicked because it all started happening again and she does not want her friends to get hurt. She rushed out of the
She opened her mouth to say something when heard a voice in her head. “Hello fellow,” said a voice. “Did you say something?” she asked to Daniel. “No, why?” he said. “Someone whispered in my ear,” she said. He took a deep breath. “Listen, Amanda, I know this all is new to you but I am not the right person to tell you this,” he said. “Daniel? What is happening to me? Am I going crazy? Have I killed that boy? What am I? A psychopath,” she said with tears in her eyes. Daniel sighs at her. “Amanda, why do you do that? Why have you killed that boy?” he asked. “I don’t remember anything, Daniel. All I remember is pain and bone cracking,” she said. He took a deep breath. “I know what I have to do, I hate to do it but I would do it,” he said. “What are you talking about?” she asked. “There is only one person who can help you and we can trust for your kind,” he said. “Daciana,” he went on. “Who is Daciana?” she asked. “You will find out that as well,” she said. She rolls her e
“Enough, I will kill that bitch on my own,” said Mila and took a walk, Liam got in the way to stop her. She pushed him aside because she was now out of control. Her eyes turned bright golden. “No one will come in my way. I will finish her off,” she said. “Mila stop,” he said. “I have told Xavier, this girl should not be allowed her,” she said, clenching her teeth. “I know you are angry with her because you have lost your mother because her mother,” he said, sadly. She turned towards him and it was obvious it was the most painful memory. She stared at him for a while and then walks out. *********The room opened and two figures appeared in the room. She recognizes one as Daniel. “Daniel, I, I have not killed him,” she said crying and hugging. “Hey, I know, relax,” he was mollifying her. And then her gaze fell on the boy next to her. “Eric,” she said got up to reach him her right hand was chained. “Eric, where have to brought me, this town is strange. Daniel is a demi-god,
“What is your problem? Leave me alone,” she snapped. He held her so tightly and dragged her towards the lockers. He pushed her onto the locker and towered over her. “I have told you to stay away from me and leave this town,” he hissed. “Xavier Allen, this town is not owned by your forefathers,” she said, angrily. He chuckled like a madman and in a matter of seconds she realized that she have hit his nerves.His eyes turned red due to anger and for the first time, she felt so insecure and so scared. A growl escaped from his mouth and she turned pale. “Get the hell out of my territory,” he said, clenching his teeth. Just then Liam walks in.Xavier got separated from Amanda and she was still in shock. “Dean Victor said Fred is going to teach Amanda,” Liam said. “What?” a word escaped from Xavier’s lips and he felt his word strange. He looked at Amanda and then Liam and walks away. Liam could see fear and tears in Amanda’s eyes. He walks towards her and held her shoulders. “
They both were sitting in the library and reading. She had found a good friend for the first time. “Amanda, I don’t know what has happened to writers they days. This is a whole lie, it was not Zeus because of werewolves born,” he said annoyed. “But I have been reading this since childhood that werewolves were created because of Zeus,” she said. “No, no, no of course not,” he said. “Whatever, I know it’s just an urban legend and lie because werewolves do not exist,” she said while chewing on gum. He chuckled. She looked up at him. “They don’t do they?” she asked while raising an eyebrow. “Since we both are fans of urban legends so I want a book from you,” he said. “Sure,” she replied while reading a book. “Daniel,” Mila arrived and called upon him. She ignores Amanda. “Mila, what made you come here to the library?” asked Daniel, sarcastically. She rolls her eyes. “Carlos has sent me here and he asked me to tell you that you are required in the meeting,” she said, annoyed, a
