SATURDAYThe light around me was bright and highly disturbing. I blinked a few times before opening my eyes. I was lying on the ground, in East valley. I didn't know how I could tell this was the forest, I just knew it was. I was in a shaded area; an all around me was illuminated with intense yellow sunlight."How did I get here?" I asked myself.The forest was quiet, the light was bright. I shielded my eyes with my hand. And to my own bewilderment I noticed that my arm had grown back. I looked at it, amazed. I seemed to be all alone but then I saw Dawn appear out of nowhere, she was holding a bunch of flowers and smiling gleefully at me."Dawn?"She smiled even brighter.“Come Kaldar, no one can disturb us… no one can harm us.” She said."Dawn how did we get hear?""Come to me Kaldar." I heard a low growl and a big black wolf jumped out of nowhere and swallowed her up.“No, no, no, no, no, no.&r

SAME DAYI liked the way Tia brushed her thumb against my skin but the question was if I actually loved her. I could have fallen in love her and was just deceiving myself that I didn't actually love her, no, the way I felt around Tia could not be compared to the way I felt around Dawn. Dawn made me feel more alive, more real like she brought me from two-dimension to three-dimension. I loved her.We drove for another boring ten minutes before the minivan finally eased to a stop. Tia was gently stroking my neck with her left hand as I leaned my head on her left shoulder."Everyone stay in, Jereum you can come with," Jhan said, before he stepped out and Jereum stepped out as well. And that's how it has always been, Jhan and Jereum, defenders of the undefended. If only Jhan would stop treating me like a child and more like one of them. I was the most powerful after all.We had stopped a distance in front of a bungalow. Red painted walls as usual and I saw an

CONTINUATION…I didn't like the attention but at the same time I didn't really mind it.Tia was just smiling widely and confirming their doubts."It is him!!!" Someone bellowed, and the crowd only grew more information thirsty.I spotted a clan of girls. All eight of them seemed to be about Tia's age and they were sitting and standing around a broken car. They were all very beautiful and I noticed they were all looking straight at me.I was transfixed in there alluring gazes. Tia nudged me painfully at my side. I was broken from the trance."They call themselves the Nymphets. But they spell it with an 'I' instead of a 'y' which I think is dumb to me," She said.'Kelderrrrr..." A soft voice sang out in my head. I immediately knew it was one of them. The one that was actually sitting on the cars bonnet—seemed to be their leader—was smiling at me. She twisted strands of her purple hair in-between her fingers.Ti

SAME DAY I fought a mental battle to control the speed of my attacks. The fear I felt in fighting Jereum was so much I seethed with it. Jereum wore a broad grin and was eyeing my face carefully as if trying to determine where he was going to punch first. Jhan gave the order for us to begin and I launched at Jereum, ready to land a punch. I thought that if I keep on the offence, he might be too busy dodging my attacks to attack back and the idea was worth so I kept him on the defensive to the best of my abilities. Jereum titled his head to his right and then, so quick I never saw it coming, he landed a punch on my temple. The force of the punch was enough to kill a normal person. I fell to the ground but supported myself from getting knocked out with my elbows. "Huh, so that's not enough to kill you..." "What!?" I looked at his limbs carefully as I got back up. Jereum wasted no time, he launched off the ground, twisting his body

THURSDAYTia had returned home yesterday not long after I had heard Leya's insufferable tale. I had stayed with Leya all morning, trying to find a weak spot in her so I could console her but she seemed to be doing just fine, showing no weakness whatsoever. Yet, I was compelled to feel pity for her and a sense of protection as well.Knowing all this about Leya had made me see her in a different light, I no longer saw her as the weak little girl I once saw her as, but now I saw her as a heavily willed, strong and bold little girl.The fact that she had gone through all that coupled with the taunts Jereum used to throw at her, made me hate Jereum even more. I thought about what Jhan had done, was he at the wrong for saving her life? I mean, didn’t she deserve to get a choice? Or was her condition too critical for that.She said she had drunk the blood of the people that did that to her and her friends. Did she kill them herself or was it Jhan? I wasn&r
