I swear to god, Seth, aka little mate was really annoying. He was still following me.

"Leave me alone, Little mate, there are no more stairs." I said sternly to him. He growled at me:
"No you are hurt, you should rest."

"Yeah,yeah don't act like you care, I am fine and I do well on my own, why don't you reject me already? I am sure you will find another beautiful and powerful mate." I said, hoping he will just fuck the hell off.

But no he just sticks to me as I continue to limp to the library, so I gave up on trying to talk to him, and just decided to ignore him. Until that is I got an idea and I said, sitting on a bench near the position of the library:

"Could you get me some water from the kitchen, I am really thirsty and it might help with my dizziness." I asked him with a pleading voice.

" Yes of course, I will be right back, do not move." Yeah right, as soon as he turned the corner I was already through the wall and landing carefully in the library not wanting to hurt my foot more. 

I noticed that my bag was still here untouched. Ok let's get to work. I relaxed my body and I thought of the city that I saw, maybe the library could help. I heard a book drop and opened my eyes. It was just one book and not so thick. It was about hell and it's cities and a small and brief characterizations about hell itself. And by brief I mean really brief, like it was literary a single page. I finished it in 2 minutes and I didn't find anything new and we had more of a description in our demonology class. but there was something different about this book. 

After that introduction it began describing the larger cities in hell and I swear that the people in the images were moving, as they were alive and I was some kind of a viewer and I was peeking into their life. IT was really weird, I read and studied the images of some well-known cities such as The hound market, a huge market where you can find almost anything you want, the capital of hell The purgatory, such sinister names if you ask me, but as I searched I didn't find a city that matched mine, where people were living.

Then I saw it another part in the book, the abandoned cities, there were huge places where there was no one, but I could see in the images that the wind was blowing really hard. I saw some known such as The Last Night where there was a great massacre where lots of demons lost their life to a huge hoard of monsters. As I was reading throughout the book, I finally fond my city.

It name was The Lost City, I now realized why it was so familiar it was the first city ever plundered by monsters, the closest to their original emergence point . It was a huge city, a red city and a peaceful one until the monsters came. It was said that this city was one of the power cities in hell. The people that lived there were caught off guard by the monster's arrival. They fought with all their might but the city was lost and destroyed. But at the end on the page there was written something in an old language. An old demonic language I guess. What could it possibly say, I needed to find out at all costs. Maybe there was someone in this school that could help me a teacher who knew ancient demonic.

As I looked outside the window, I saw that is was almost sunset and close to dinner time. So I decided to fill up my tummy I got my bag now carrying two books the monster one and the demonic one. They were quite heavy if I was being honest along with my daggers that I placed back on my waist, just in case, you never know. I opened the library doors and emerged in one of the bathroom near the dining room. 

The room was full and I got in line to take my food and went to my table and luckily for me, my mate was nowhere in sight, but Nana was at the table talking to another witch.

"Hey there." I said.

Nana looked up and smiled at me. "Hello there, monsterkiller." she said using my new nickname that circled around the school.
