Harper and Liam walked into the cinema in search for Hayden, Liam wanted to pay some of the money back that she Owed her

When they found her Liam ran up to her "forty three dollars"

"I said I don't want your money" Hayden denied him

"No You said I owe you two hundred"

"Liam just forget it-" But she got cut off when the lights went out

Hayden started making her way to the back room with Liam and Harper close behind

"Hayden, Hayden" Liam repeated her name

She turned to him "I gotta be honest Liam if you're trying to be a good guy I'm really not interested" after she said those words Harper let out a light laugh to which Liam glared at him

"I'm just trying to make up for the fifth grade"

"Nothing will make up for the fifth grade" she finalized before Liam put his head down in defeat and walked out of the back room

Harper watched as Hayden struggled to let the lever up to turn back on the lights

She walked over and put her hand on top of hers and helped her push the lever up

"Look if you want to keep hating him, go for it, you said he owed you two hundred so here's forty three more" she said as she handed Hayden the money

Which she took then Harper walked out

__________

Harper was sitting on the bleachers next to Brett and Mason

"I don't know dude, every one at deven ford seems pretty abnormal to me" Brett told them both

"What else is there to look for? There's heightened strength, smell, hearing, speed"

"Able to see in the dark"

"Glowing eyes"

"Eyes that reflect at light"

"Visible scorpion stingers protruding out of limbs"

"3 foot lizard tails"

"Hey aren't you supposed to be practicing?" Brett asked the girl that was sitting next to him

"Yea but we all know I don't need it"

"Yea whatever you say"

"What's up with those two?" Brett asked who was looking at Hayden and Liam

"sixth grade, and not the best year for Liam and his anger management issues, there was this fight in the hallways with Liam and this other guy and Hayden sorta accidentally walked into it, and this is her year book photo" Mason said as he showed the photo of younger Hayden

"Awe shes so cute" Harper cooed "Send me that photo she looks adorable"

"Oh damn, ouch, what'd she do to him?" Brett asked

Mason then showed a photo of you her Liam "oh he's adorable to" Harper cooed once again "I want that photo to"

Someone then ran onto the field "does anyone have an inhaler!!"

"Scott?" She asked then looked at Liam

Liam and Harper ran into the school and to Harpers locker "Here" she said handing Liam and inhaler

As they we're running to the room Liam asked her "why do you have an inhaler?"

"Uhm... real question is why don't you?"

As they rounded the corner to the room Liam yelled "Ive got the inhaler!"

Liam put the inhaler in Scott's hand and both of the younger kids looked at him "Scott cmon" Liam said shaking him just a little

Harper got I front of him and shined her eyes "Scott" she said a little lower

His eyes widen as he gasped, he put the inhaler to his mouth and used it "Thanks" he said to her and she nodded

"Don't expect me to do it again" Harper said before she left the classroom

__________

"Twenty five dollars" Liam said to Hayden as he followed her around

"Liam please stop" she begged him

"I'm gonna pay you back"

"It dosent matter now And Phil takes half of it anyway" she said to him

"I know it's for your medication so please just take the money"

"It wasn't your fault"

"I punched you in the face" Liam told her

"I meant the shot" she said

"Ohh"

"It's for my mycophenolate, for my kidney transplant I had a few years ago, I work here so my sister doesn't have to pay for all of it, now could you just forget about it? I'll make it back somehow"

"Does Phil really take half?" Harper asked walking up to her

"And never stops bragging about it.
Just listen to him" Hayden said

"It's not like they're going to do anything They're all under the table and too young to be selling alcohol anyway"

"Hayden Can I ask you to do something else for me?" Liam asked

"What?"

"Close your eyes" he said

"Are you kidding?"

"Please"

"No"

"Just for two seconds I swear, I am not gonna do anything" He promised

"Why?"

"All you have to do is close your eyes for three seconds"

"You said two" Harper corrected him

"Okay, well, three Three at the most"
Liam then grabbed a glow stick of the table

"This is stupid" Hayden mumbled

"Just one second" He said before he cracked a glow stick to make it glow, he held it close to Hayden's face "open them"

When she opened them her eyes were glowing, Liam turned to Harper with the stick still up and it shined on her eyes accidentally and her eyes didn't glow but turned white

Liam jumped back a little at this and looked between the two girls in shock before shaking his head
