'I have waited so long to meet you and I have learn patience during that time so I don't mind waiting some more for your return.'

"I promise to tell you everything the next time we meet..." Before I could continue Gregory's Father cuts me off.

"It's time everyone." Frederick announced while he stands before the moon with the comet crossing it. I gently turn his face back to mine and pull him into one last kiss before I pulled away and let him go so I can go stand next to the Thompsons. I watch as Gregory stands next to his mother while his Father holds up the Stone and began to chant.

"Ab ovo, in toto, Nil desperandum, Sine die......" Suddenly a large balloon comes up and block the moon, rage filles me when my eyes land on the hunter that hold onto the rope that once bind the balloon to the ground. The hunter kick the stone from Fredericks hand before flashing a large cross that shines with light making the vampire hiss, the hunter quickly drops to the ground and catches the stone before flashing the cross all around. I quickly appeared before him with my wings unfolded shielding those behind me from the light, I grab his hand that's holding the light in a death grip causing his eyes to widen at my strength at first but then at my wings and their size started to overwhelm him. I throw a punch into his stomach making him throw the stone from his hand, which is picked off the ground my Tony,  before I started pushing him towards and over the edge of the cliff. I look up to see the balloon completely gone and the comet is at the very edge of the moon.

"Make the wish Tony!" Rudolph shout to his friend.

"You know what we want!" Tony holds the stone into the air and close his eyes as he began to wish, right as a beam of light connects to the comet from the stone tears started to fall from the child eyes. I silently watch as smoke rolls over the ground and move it's way up each vampire, for the last time our eyes meet and with a smile I mouth words to him before the smoke completely over takes him. Soon ever vampire is covered and the smoke pulls back leaving nothing behind as the beam of light fades away.

With a faint smile I close my eyes and hold my arms out before letting myself fall over the edge of the cliff, the air rushes pass and I let a few seconds go by before I open my eyes. Quickly before I hit the waves I turn my body around and give my wings a hard flap with all my strength sending me straight into the sky, on the way I fold my wings around myself and spin. Once I felt gravity I open my wings to see the moon in front of me and for the next few hours I spend my time flying around until the sun began to rise from it's slumber, that's when I landed before the Thompsons front door.

Mrs. Thompson sits a cup of coffee in front of me before sitting next to her husband.

"I can see you got questions, ask away." I said before taking a sip of the coffee.

"What are you?" Tony quickly asked before his mom could.

"I'm an angel, a fallen one, that's why my wings are black instead of white." I continue answering their questions until I asked my own.

"Did you notice that your son is a Seer?" I take the answer as no when confusion covers their faces.

"A Seer is a person who can see visions of the past, present, and future. The Stone of  Attamon is a powerful item, so powerful that without have to touch it has woken your son's Seer ability at a every young age." I continue on explaining and by the end of it I have the stone hanging around my neck. As a day later I have taken up residence in the previous graveyard keeper home since he had no relatives and somehow the towns people that came to know me for the pass years found out that I was 'homeless' and give me the home along with the graveyard keeper job.

Days then weeks pass by without a sign of the Victorian family, worry and sadness as begin to sit in my heart the longer they are away and before I know it a month has pass.
