It was always quiet in Mystic Grove. Until one day cases of animal attacks surge. Clay was new to school and he was perfect in George's eyes. A little too perfect... This is a story from George's point of view, as he discovers dark secrets and opens...
"Okay okay maybe I got ahead of myself." I sat down onto the couch next to Ghostbur. "How so?" Ghostbur sat with his legs crossed "Well I guess.." I thought for a moment. "Yeah I did say I wanted to start over. But after I said that I just said bye and ran home. I got a weird feeling again." "So? Maybe you shouldn't put all your energy into thinking about this." Ghostbur put a hand on my shoulder. "Maybe I'm rushing things. After all The incident did happen a few days ago.." I sigh "Well are you still scared of him?" I look up at him "I don't really know." I pause "Well I guess kind of, not like when he's normal but more.." I trail off. "This could be a fresh start for you, you can learn more about how your world really is about. Maybe even learn about his past, and what era he was in." Ghostbur smiled brightly. "I guess your right.." "There is nothing to be afraid off, if he wanted to hurt you.."
"Don't you think you would of been killed already?"
I'm awaken by a knock on my door. I rolled out of bed and throw on a white t-shirt. The knocking only continued as I quickly tried getting on my sweatpants. "Hold on!" I yelled. But the knocking just continues. I make my way downstairs and to my front door. I open it to be greeted with Nick and Clay about to knock again.
"FINALLY." Nick groans. "I said Hold on." I rolled my eyes. "So what? You would of taken forever anyways." Nick pushed Clay into me. "He's all your, I'm out." I watched as Nick scurried off. We stood there for a few minutes looking at each other. Searching for a clue how the other was feeling. "So.. where do you wanna do this." Clay asked. He seemed calm. "I don't really care. As long if it's just not at my house." I scratched the back of my neck. "Okay I might have a place we can got to. Can we use your car?" "Uhm yeah sure, let me grab my keys." As Clay maked his way into the car I grabbed my wallet and keys. I quickly locked up the house, running to my car. "Do you want to drive or.?" "No I can just direct you." We both climb into the car before looking at each other for a second.
This was either going to go really well, or really bad.
Time skip
After a while of blind directions we make to a cafe. I lock the car up before heading inside the cafe, where Clay is getting a table for us. I walk inside to see it was the cafe we met in before. In the corner of my eye I see Clay trying to flag me down, I make my way to the table sitting across from him. We order some coffee, myself also ordering a blueberry muffin.
"Ask away." Clay says before taking a sip of his drink. "How old are you, what is your real name, how do yo-." I blurt out. "Okay okay slow down there." He chuckled "My real name is Clay smith, I was born in 1843 august 12th. I well...'died' June 5th 1861. I am 160 years old, but appear as 18 year old for eternity." "Wow.. well I guess that's how you got all your information for the project." I laugh lightly. I somehow had a hint of intimidation and fear in the mix of my happiness. "Well, it was better then some trashy Wikipedia website." He smiled "How do you walk in the sunlight? And are the miths about vampires true." Clay thought for a moment. "Well that's a easy one. The most miths aren't true like garlic dosent hurt us,we can see our reflections." He then held out his hand and pointed to a ring on his finger. "That is called a daylight ring, crafted by witches in the late 1400 so night walkers can walk in the day." I grab his hand pulling it closer so I can look at the ring.
His ring :)
