First Person:
It was the day before I was to leave to Nevermore! I was sooooo excited! I woke up early and started to finish my packing then mother came in. "Lydia sweetie! Are you excited?" I tried to answer but she just continued talking and happily lecturing me in a good way like she always does. She continued "Nevermore I assure you will be a new opportunity for you, you'll make friends and you might even meet some cute boys" she then winked at me and then came over to help me finish packing. I just rolled my eyes, I was definitely a little boy crazy and mom knew that she said she was to back in the day. I actually had a boy in mind, but that's not important at the moment...
"Mom..." I broke the small pause of silence. " I'm really going to miss you and dad and Marcus I guess". Mom laughed at the last remark. "Well me and your dad will definitely call you as soon as possible, but you can call me anytime to spill the tea or whatever you guys call it these days" I just laughed at her I love my mom, we have a very close relationship actually. " Don't worry though you will probably forget about us honestly your just going to love it there" she smiled at me slightly I could tell she was a little sad though. "Never mom" I said to her. She then hugged me, it was a loving caring embrace as always, typical mom. She then said " Well I will miss the only one kinda like me in this house, but I still love your dad though and Marcus" we just laughed at that. I was the only child in the family that hadn't inherited my dads gorgon trait, well correctly at least. My 2 other siblings had my dads hair with claws and not a huge chance of wolfing out. I on the other hand had blonde short hair with some pretty violet purple and hot pink die at the end with a touch of aqua blue. Like my mothers hair when she was younger, but with purple. Raven insisted I added purple when we were 4 so I have ever since then, it is one of the only colors she actually likes. However I had the same amount of chance to wolf out as any other werewolf and I had claws but, I wear gloves cause instead of being like my dad whatever I touch turns to stone. They learned that when I accidentally stoned the doctor when I was born, I was given specialized gloves since then. "Well I am going next door to chat about a few things with  a Wednesday you want to join me and see how Ravens packing is going?" she said to me seeing I just finished packing myself. "Yes mother, I will be down stairs soon" I smiled at her and she returned the favor and left. I then ran downstairs telling dad I would be back with mom later. I then walked out the door with my mother.

First Person:
My mom and I walked in the house. My mother saw aunt Wednesday and greeted her. I was just taking my shoes off at the front when I heard a voice.
"Lydia, it's nice to see you I am sure Raven will be thrilled to see you. She is in the art room upstairs with her father." she told me with a very slight smile but still a smile. Aunt Wednesday does and never has smiled often except when shes around close family and that included me and my family. I then went up the stairs excited to see my bestie. I then went to the art room. I stopped in the door frame I didn't want to ruin the moment with Raven and her dad. Raven was really close with her father, she definitely was a daddy's girl. Uncle Xavier and my dad were definitely really good dads to us but a little overprotective especially Ravens dad. So much had happened to Aunt Wednesday at Nevermore and over the years with her almost dying. He became a extremely protective dad, but more so over Raven.

Third Person:
Lydia watched while Xavier painted with his daughter. He was the one who taught her at a very young age to paint and draw. Like him, she absolutely loved it and was extremely talented and skilled. She also had many other talents. Though Raven looked like her mother she acted like her father in a lot of ways which made them have a connection. Raven was painting her and her dad out in a meadow it was a beautiful painting really. Xavier was painting on his own, but was still helping and giving her advice here and there as always, in a loving way. "I'm done" Raven broke the silence. Xavier looked up from his own painting and examined hers. He smiled at his daughter, usually people would say parents tell there kids what they want to here but she was insanely talented and the art peace was absolutely gorgeous. "Love, it's beautiful you still blow me away with your talent so young" he said looking at all of the colors and details she used. "It's yours" she smiled at him. He just looked at her a little confused. "I made it for you, because I am leaving for Nevermore tomorrow" she smiled sadly then continued "I am really going to miss you dad" she said with slight tears in your eyes. Xavier just hugged his daughter shedding a tear a little bit as well his little Raven was growing up. He looked at her and said "Hey, Nevermore is going to be the best 4 years of your life trust me" he said wiping her tears. " I will be a call away and did you pack the keys" he whispered she nodded eagerly. Xavier had given her the keys to his old art shed in the woods he used to use when he went there. He however wanted his daughter to keep it quiet and not tell many people he wanted to keep the shed in the family really. Only him and Wednesday knew she was going to use it. He was giving it to her since Zane really was more like his mother and liked instruments and fencing. Raven still loved fencing but she was more of the creative child with her mother's passion for writing and her father's passion for painting and archery. "Oh and you can tell Lydia about it if you want just not to many people" he told her. "I know dad don't worry"  Raven then looked at the door and smiled at seeing Lydia. "Lyd, nice to see you" she said happily.

First person:
I was then startled as Raven greeted me while I saw uncle Xavier smile and nod at me then he said. "Well let me put this up" he said and then he grabbed the painting and put it on the wall then he walked to the door. "I'll let you two girls be, just no boy talk you got that" he said jokingly as he pointed to his eyes than us . We both bursted out laughing then he said "I'm serious" down the hall. We just looked at each other and laughed a little more. Then Raven said "Hey, Are you ready? You know for tomorrow" she looked at me curious a little bit. "I'm really excited and nervous, but as ready as I'll ever be. You don't have to worry though, because we're doing this together. Plus Dayton, Zane, and thing are coming" I smiled at her . Then we started talking about what we wanted to do when we got their and what clubs we were going to join. I definitely was beyond excited for Nevermore.
