5: Strangers and Visions

Miyuki Grey

It was all going well. Everything was relatively normal even when Sister Mary threatened William the same threat I used, making the tall boy realize those are real threats.

Everything was going well throughout the whole week and now, Monday, Will (Yes we're on nickname basis now I guess) said the following words while we're walking through the halls making our way through the sea of students that definitely disrupts the peace and could possibly lift the veil of the living and the dead.

"My Dad wants to meet you." What does that mean? His Dad, a werewolf, an Alpha of his pack, wants to meet me, a witch, a teen witch that can feel emotions and have visions from gods know what timeline. Can you see now the problem? If yes, then therefore we can conclude that I'm going to die. Who in their right mind would go to a place where people could possibly kill you and put your skeletons in their closet? So I gracefully replied. "No." I deadpanned.

"But-" "No." I turned around to face him. "Will, do you even realize what could happen to me? I'm already walking to my grave being friends with you! Going to your pack can possibly result in what? The moment I stepped into your pack's territory I'm a dead meat." I argued, leaving no space for other arguments that might come from the tall teen.

"I can protect you! I'm the Alpha's son! If I told them to not kill you just because of your blood then they won't! I promise!" William pleaded. He used his puppy eyes strategy to even look more convincing (which is hard to resist since he really does look like a puppy when he does that). "No.." Looking away from his eyes, not giving in.

William moved back into my field of vision making me look directly into his eyes. "Pleaseee?" He begged, eyes still ridiculously adorable. I sighed deeming that there is no escape from the other teen. "Fine! I'll think about it." "Yes!" William cheered so loudly that a passing teacher scolded him and even gave him detention for it.

"I said I'll think about it, I didn't agree right away." I pointed to the tall boy. "But you said fine, so you'll go." He pointed back. 'Is that really his argument? That I said fine? Is his brains alright?'

I looked at him weirdly as if a ghost was coming out of his head. "Are you sure you still have a brain cell in that head of yours that is full of muscles?" "Hey!" He glared at me. "At least I can still have A's and B's from time to time" The tall boy grumbled as we walked. "Whatever suits your panties." I said as I open the door of the room, greeting a goodmorning to Ms. Evermore that is always early.

A few more students came in before the bell rang. "I'll take your attendance now, you guys know the drill. Abbott, Jack." "Present." The boy whose name is Jack said and that's how the morning started. For better or for worse.

It's already lunch, I'm already eating halfway through my lunch and Will still haven't appeared yet into the cafeteria. "Hey." Someone said besides me as they took a seat. He looked like my age and quite tall, around 6 ft perhaps, but not as tall as William. "Uh hey?" I greet suspiciously. I removed my bandana to be able to feel his emotions, and most likely his motives. (Can't really trust anybody when you're supposed to be a loner)

"Heeeey, so uh.." He paused, eyes looking everywhere except on me. I could already feel his emotions, they are practically leaking and waiting to be found. Shyness, Interest, Joy, basically almost the same with the emotions I felt when I first William. "I'm Callisto White." "pfft-" The teen besides me became confused.

"What's funny?" Confusion etched in Callisto's face, trying to figure out what made me laugh (or lack of since I'm holding it). "Just you know, I'm Miyuki Grey, you're Callisto White. Grey? White? Uh yeah not really funny now that I'm saying it but it is in my head though." I end off embarrassed, making my face flush as Callisto's smile wide

And at that moment William arrived, announcing his presence."Calli?" He called the stranger with such familiarity. "Hey." Callisto greeted the other tall teen and was still smiling but not as wide as it used to be before William entered the conversation (it's not like we've been talking for hours). "What are you doing here?" Will asked.

"Just followed the scent." Callisto said, now his smile turned wide as his face flushed. Emotions leaking out again, Affection became even stronger, to whoever that was to. But all that registered in my mind is just one fact. I looked at the stranger in the eye. "You're a werewolf." At that point I just stand up and run. Fuck my life, I just wanna stay away from everything that could possibly relate to the bloody war. How hard is that supposed to be?

I walked home after I miraculously avoided the two werewolves on the rest of the day. Well, not that I didn't make an effort to do so since I basically have to layer glamour spells over glamours just to fully hide myself from the two that seem to agree that they should stalk me after meeting me. Just what are the problems of the werewolves I always met? Stalking really? Not like I met a ton of werewolves, BUT STILL!

On the way to the orphanage I saw a wallet, I picked it up as I planned to bring it to the nearest police station when the surroundings suddenly changed. The most noticeable though that now it is clearly night time.

'Vision, this is definitely a vision'

I thought as I menacingly eyed the wallet that brought me to this situation. The wind blow wildly but I'm not affected of it making me confirm even more of my thoughts.

When something screeched in the dead night, the sound creeped into my skin as fear rushed in. "Just what the fuck?" I muttered. Loud footsteps were coming from the direction of where the screech was heard from coming towards my direction. I cursed underneath my breath before hiding into the dark alley. My back touching it's wall.

The footsteps became even louder, the ground started to shake as it got closer and closer, making me note the weight of whatever that was. "Shit." I cursed, I ran deeper into the dark alley in an attempt to run away from the creature of some sort that would surely kill me (or not depending if it could see me since, you know, this is a vision) but all I saw is a dead end.

The footsteps became closer and closer to my direction, the ground started to shake violently and it stopped right behind me. My breath was shaking, hands trembling, I turned around slowly to see a monster.

The whole thing was full of black veins that were as thick as an arm, eyes white. Then it opened its mouth very wide, the sound of the its jaw cracking as it get even more wider and screeched right into my face.

I fell into my butt and everything changed, I was back to reality, but I couldn't hear a thing. All I know is that William and Callisto are asking questions after questions and their voices full of worry. "What is that?" My breath is still shaking but all my instincts are saying to me right now is that these boys know what that creature is.

I looked up to them, their face full of worry and they kept asking question about how I suddenly disappeared and just camr back but I ignored it as I asked again, this time full of confidence.

"What the fuck is that thing?"
