The Survival Games (A world of werewolves, vampires, demons, supernaturals)

Training

I woke up at 8:16am, I did my morning things. After that, I went downstairs and ate my breakfast. It was 8:57 when I left. I rang the doorbell of Josh's home. Two seconds later, the door opened, it was Megan.

''You're right on time.'' She said as she went to the basement. Even though I knew there were already tons of books, I was still amazed. I walked down the stairs, Megan gestured me to sit in a chair, I sat down, my hands on the table, I saw her walking toward one of the bookshelves, and picked out a big book. She moved toward the table and put the book down in front of me. I looked at the title of the book, it said 'Different kinds of gifts.' I turned on a page and saw the name of the gifts.

'Shape-Shifting, Minders, Protectors.'

"Hey, there are no Mind-Wishers here." I said. I had thought my mind-wishing thing was a gift. Alec had a gift; being a Protector. Wondered how that gift started. Only one person in this room should know.

''Do you know the history of the Protectors?'' I asked. I wanted to know everything about Alec.

''Yes, why?'' Said Megan.

''Just curious, can you tell me?'' She sat across from me and started telling me the story.

''It all started in 1690, this young man wanted to become a warrior, his name was Benjamin, he would fight in wars and he would win, he was brave, he would help people, and one of his desire dreams was that one day the world would be in peace. He always believed there was something special about him. One day, there was a vast invasion of demons. No humans that were around him could see them. He kept telling them to run, but they only kept laughing at him.

''One of the demons could show itself in front of ordinary humans and it was when they all started running and screaming in terror. Benjamin ran toward his shelter to get his favorite sword, blades, and knives. He ran where the demons were and started fighting them. All of those demons were stupid so they didn't survive, and there he was with only one demon, the one that could show itself to ordinary humans, this one was bigger, taller, larger, and smarter than all the other demons. He was the king.

''Benjamin could not help but just stare, the eyes of the demon were flaming red and his teeth were razor sharp."

YEARS AGO

"What are you staring at, Benjamin the great warrior." The demon asked.

''How do you know my name.'' Benjamin asked.

"Please, you were born to protect Humanity, God chose you to become a warrior."

''God what.'' Said Benjamin unbelievably. ''I'm a Protector.''

''Yes, and I'm here to kill you.'' Said the demon as he moved toward Benjamin. Benjamin threw knives at him, but the demon could not die, Benjamin didn't know what to do, he tried everything but nothing happened. ''I'm no ordinary demon, Benjamin. You may have killed my army of demons, but you cannot kill me, I'm the king of evil...look at yourself, you were born to be a Protector and you cannot even protect yourself.'' Mocked the demon. He was laughing really hard that the ground was shaking like an earthquake, but his laughter broke as Benjamin threw the sword right into his heart and blood started dripping out. The blood was dark. But the demon didn't die exactly, it just disappeared.

Then, angels appeared, one of them was named Michael, the Archangel. He was the leader of the army in heaven. He advanced Benjamin and put his palm on his shoulder. Light came out and a moment later, he and all the other angels disappeared...and that was how the race of the Protectors began.

PRESENT

''Whoa.'' I said. ''Alec must be really proud.'' Something in her face stopped me; it was hatred. Why would she hate the Protectors.

''Ok, anything else you want to know?''

''How did Shape-Shifting began and what are Minders?''

''Shape-Shifters are some kind of Warlocks, very rare; half demon, half human.''

''Wait, how come the humans don't see they are demons.'' I asked interestedly.

''Some demons look like humans, but with many marks on their skins. For the humans, they always find it interesting, how can the marks looks so real? Those demons trick the humans and pretend the marks are tattoos.'' She told me. ''By the way, I'm a Minder, we Minders train the Mind-Wishers and the Heart-Wishers.''

''Heart-Wishers.'' I said.

''Yes, the Heart-Wishers wish things with their heart, but trust me, the things that they have to wish really has to come from their hearts or it won't happen. It's the very contrary of Mind-Wishers, Mind-Wishers can wish anything with their minds and it happens.''

''But every time I'm wishing for something, I have to wish it more than one or two times.''

''It's because you need practice, and that's why I'm here, to help you concentrate on your power, and how to control it.'' Megan said. ''Any more questions.''

''Yes, why aren't there Mind-Wishers in the gift list?''

''You'll find that out on Saturday.''

''Uh, Saturday, I can't.'' I said. She looked at me, she really did look like Josh.

''What do you mean you can't?''

''I have a date.''

''With who?''

''Alec.''

''Alec, who?''

''Um, I don't know his last name.''

''Is he a Protector?''

''Yes.'' I said and there was a disgusted look on her face. Again, why would she hate the Protectors?
