Chapter 7


    “It’s weird...” Tristan mumbled while looking at the deer.


    “What’s weird?” I asked, eyebrows furrowed.


    “The deer has no blood,” he uttered.


    “What?” Anna let out, then stood up and walked closer to Tristan. Anna gasped when she saw the


    deer. I have to think of a quick exnation.


    Yvette also looked at the deer closer, “Look, there’s a bite on the deer’s neck!” Yvette said with eyes


    widened. Then they look at us questioningly.


    “Oh, we haven’t noticed it. We were hungry, so we didn’t look closely. It didn’t smell bad, so we thought


    someone killed it recently.” I said calmly and shrugged. They don’t have to know that I did it.


    “It looks like they sucked all the deer’s blood,” they mumbled and shivered. I can hear their heartbeats


    bing irregr. It scared them.


    I caught La taking nces at me and grinned secretly. She knew I did that. “Do you still want to eat


    it?” Tristan asked me. I nodded, even though I am still full right now because I sucked all the deer’s


    blood. But La is starving. She hasn’t eaten for almost 3 days in a row because of me.


    “I’m starving. We haven’t eaten for days. I think the deer’s meat is good.” La said. Tristan sighed and

    nodded. Then I continued grilling the meat. When we already cooked a few slices of meat, La and I


    devoured it. The group just watched us and didn’t eat with us. I just shrugged my shoulders.


    After we ate and talked, the group packed their things because it''s time for them to go back home and


    we tagged along. We walked for 20 minutes before reaching the entrance of the forest. Then I saw the


    truck beside the small rocky road.


    “That’s your truck?” La asked.


    “Yep!” they mumbled.


    Then Yvette and Anna rummage through their bags and take something out. Before they let us into the


    truck, Yvette and Anna handed us their extra clothes. We changed at the back of the car while the boys


    looked away. Yvette and Anna were hiding us while we changed and their backs facing us.


    “We’re done!” I mumbled and smiled.


    They turned around to see us, then ushered us to go inside the car in the backseat together.


    “How many hours will we reach the city?” I asked after I settled in.


    “Hmm, about five hours,” Tristan answered. I hummed and looked outside the window. “You can sleep,”


    he mumbled while starting the engine. I just hummed.


    But I don’t want to sleep. I want to know the direction, in case I decide toe back.


    An hourter, I feel ufortable. My hearing caught a noise from a distance. I heard a lot of footsteps


    running in the forest along with us. Damn! There are too many of them!


    "Tristan! Faster!" I yelled as I heard the growls of werewolves running behind us.


    "What?!" he asked, dumbfounded. The others woke up because of my yelling.


    "Damn. Wolves are behind us!" I said, and suddenly the truck screeched to a halt. Uggh, damnit!


    The girls yelled in horror and their breathing caught in their throat because of fear. La grip my arms


    tightly. Werewolves were blocking our way in this broad daylight. Seriously?


    I closed my eyes and let it glow. I don''t know, but my mouth said something foreign. Just like that, the


    groups and La fell asleep. I quickly jumped out of the truck, then locked it and faced the hungry


    werewolves. They are a group of rogues!


    They growled and hissed while looking at me. I can feel my power flowing in my veins. My eyes glow


    brightly and my body releases a powerful aura. The werewolves roared while stepping backward as I


    stepped forward.


    A ck werewolf ran faster towards me, but with just one swift motion of my hands, he flew away into


    the trees. The others growled and attacked me all at once. But I ran faster into the woods and made


    sure they all followed me. They were following, which is good because I want them away from humans


    and La.


    Now, they were surrounding me while looking at my glowing body and my two eye colors—a blue and


    green with golden flecks.


    I stare at all of them, eye to eye contact. They look like a lost puppy now. There were twenty of them,


    which came from a group of rogues. They are the attackers of every pack, but why are they hunting


    me?


    They growled and their long fangs showed, ready to attack me. The ck wolf runs towards me and his


    ws are ready to scratch me, but I quickly control him. It was like everything was in slow motion. The


    ck wolf stopped mid-air as my hands did their work. Using my left hand, I moved it away and the


    ck wolf mmed through the trees hard, then fell unconscious.


    The other werewolves stare at the ck werewolf, bbergasted. They growled again angrily and


    attacked me all at once. But I controlled them all. Just like a while ago, everything was in slow motion


    and they stopped in mid-air.


    I heard faint footstepsing in my direction and I saw a man who’s wearing a ck cloak. What


    surprised me was his fast moves. He looked me in the eye and his eyes were bloodshot, but his face


    looked so pale, his lips curved into a thin line and I gasped when he sucked the neck of the ck


    werewolf. I stare at the werewolf that fell to the ground, lifeless. My eyes glowed more brightly while


    staring at the man. And I realize what he is—a vampire. I have never seen a vampire before, and now I


    did.


    Then a devilishugh echoed throughout the forest. A few secondster, a woman wearing a ck


    gown showed up. She had a long ck w, her eyes were jet ck, and she had a dangerous aura.


    A witch?


    Werewolves, a vampire, and a witch, were in front of me. Am I just dreaming? Was it real?


    And in just one snap, my back mmed into the ground and the vampire man choked on my neck. I


    gasped for air and wiggled from his grasp. Damn! He''s so strong. His grasp on my neck tightened, and


    I felt like my lungs ran out of air.


    I tried to break free from his firm grasp, but he was just too strong. I stopped wiggling and stared into


    nothingness. Suddenly, my vision darkened, and I didn’t know what happened anymore because all I


    saw was darkness.


    “Mom? Dad?” I called. I wiped off my tears, then walked into the darkness, but I couldn’t see anything.


    What happened to my glowing eyes?


    “Wake up, Alex...”


    I gulped. Who was that?


    “Wake up, Sweety.”


    “Mom? Dad?” I called out again, but the voices vanished. I run through the darkness, trying to find the


    door to get out of this dark ce.


    Suddenly, I gasped and woke up panting as I felt my lungs almost run out of air. I stood up and looked


    at my surroundings in horror as blood scattered everywhere. Did I pass out again? I stood up and all


    the werewolves were dead. The vampire man was nowhere to be found. But I saw the witch’s upper


    body. She was gasping for air and on the verge of dying.


    I walked closer to the witch, and she looked at me in horror.


    “W-what a-are y-you?” the witch asked, blood oozing into her mouth. I felt nauseous, so I covered my


    mouth.


    My eyebrows furrowed in confusion. “What happened?” I asked, and gulped when she coughed more


    blood.


    As I looked at myself, my dress was full of bloodstains! Oh, god! What happened? I stare at my hands


    in horror, which were also stained with blood.


    “Y-you a-are a monster!” the witch uttered while almost out of breath. Her eyes bulged out and passed


    outpletely. She’s dead. Did I do this? But I remember nothing at all! All I remembered was when


    the vampire man choked me to death.


    I cringed when I saw the witch’s lower body that was whacked up. Then the witch''s bodies suddenly


    burned and vanished like dust.


    But where’s the vampire man? I hope he''s not dead. I almost threw up at the smell of the dead bodies


    of the werewolves that wereying in the ground lifeless and also whacked up. It’s like there’s a


    gigantic monster attacking them mercilessly.


    What happened? No! I didn’t kill all of them!


    My chest tightened in panic, and I ran as fast as I could while my tears kept streaming down my face


    until I saw ake and jumped into it. I swam deeper and deeper, then sat on the stone while curling up


    like a ball. The sight of the dead bodies of werewolves and the witch haunting me and I feel nauseous


    again. They are all dead, but why am I alive? I didn’t kill them, did I?


    “Alex! Alex! Where are you?! You cannot leave me, Alex!!” I heard La calling from a distance. She


    was crying and her voice was too far away from me. I think she just woke up in that truck because I


    heard others murmuring to calm her.


    La! Oh, god! How did I forget about her?


    La can’t see me like this because I am a monster. I stayed under the water longer while I kept


    crying. But what the heck? I can breathe underwater? Who am I? What am I? I hope the witch was


    lying!
