I couldn't stop thinking about my dream last night. Why do I keep having these dreams? What do they mean? It seems like they're trying to tell me something, but I don't know what. I talked to Lys about it and she has a theory that they are some kind of prophecy. She thinks that the dreams are trying to give me hints about the future with vaque scenerious. Personally, I think these dreams are more like events from the past. I cannot really explain why I think that, but I just feel it in my bones.
When I woke up, I did not feel any different than usual, except that there was some kind of headache I was experiencing. It felt like someone was poking my brain with a stick from time to time. I decided to ignore the pain as it was probably the aftereffect of last night's dream. It was somehow much more realistic and intense than the last ones.
I had breakfast and talked with Anna, Lucas and Lys. After breakfast Lucas drove us to the school. Lys mentioned that Suho had left with Robert. They are going to the Walpurgis Night in Romania this year to represent our circle.
I have never been to a Walpurgis Night ceremony, but my father and one of the coven members always participated. All the European covens gather there every year to celebrate nature and perform the Cloak Rite. I am not sure of the significance of this rite, but it is done every year. After the ceremony, the covens share information to keep everyone updated on the current state of the magical community. It's a lot easier than waiting five years for the Moon Council to meet.
The first three hours of school were uneventful, we met Adam and went to our classes together. After Adam showed me that he was in fact a very talented student at school, I thought it would not be so bad to sit next to him for the one class we all shared that day. I thought wrong, I dont know if the reason for his constant babbling and poking at me was just the result of me sitting next to him or if he behaves like this all the time, but I know one thing for sure, it was extremely annoying to the point where I almost decided to strangle him to death. But being an angel in disguise, I decided to control myself and just punch him in the stomach.
All morning I had math, art, and literature, which wasn't too bad, except for math. I really hate math. The worst part of the day was during lunch when someone suddenly burst into the cafeteria and started screaming. Me and the others decided to just stay at our table and eat our food, trying our best to ignore the idiot yelling.
"Marcus and Ezra are fighting!" the little blonde girl shouted as she ran across the tables, a mixture of fear and excitement in her eyes. I couldn't help but wonder if I was part of some low-budget high school movie. I sighed and continued eating, hoping the day would end quickly.
"This is bad news. Ezra is one of those vampires we talked about yesterday. In fact, he's their leader," Anna said in a worried tone. My eyebrows furrowed as I looked at her.
"Why is that our problem? It only affects the other group and the vampires," I asked, still a bit confused.
"If the incubus starts a fight with the vampire, all of their friends will join in and it will become a problem for all supernatural creatures in this school."
"They both have short tempers, so if a fight breaks out, there is a high probability that bystanders could get involved," Adam said, while Anna and Lucas nodded vigorously in agreement.
"Well then, why don't we watch and intervene if necessary?" I suggested. At first, everyone seemed reluctant to agree. Their faces showed concern and worry about the potential danger of getting involved. Still, it was really our only option to prevent an all-out supernatural brawl at our school if they really wanted to avoid something like that.
"He's right. If something happens, we need to ease the tension," Anna said as she stood up. The others and I followed her to the schoolyard, where a large group had gathered while we were talking.
"You should know your place, you sex addict!" yelled a blond man with a Russian accent. He had a muscular build and was getting ready to fight. He appeared to be from Eastern Europe, with a prominent nose and sharp jawline defining his features. How anyone could think he was in the age range of a student at our school was beyond me, he was literally a grown ass man, the same goes for the Incubus.
He stared at Marcus, the black-haired Incubus I had met earlier, and glared at the creature before him with intense hatred. In response, Marcus grinned and held out his hands as if to ask, "What do you mean?"
"If you touch my girlfriend again, or even look at her, I will rip your throat out with my hands!" Ezra said with a threatening look and clenched his hands into fists. After Ezra spoke, I noticed a girl with red hair standing behind the vampire. She grabbed his shirt, obviously worried about the possibility of a fight.
"I didn't do anything wrong," Marcus replied, his grinning face adding fuel to the fire.
"I was just complimenting her. Can't a guy give a girl a compliment without getting punched?" Marcus taunted Ezra with his grin. '
"Idiot," I scoffed at his remark and chuckled. As I whispered my reply, the room fell silent. Unwittingly, I had positioned myself near their argument, and my "whisper" was more like a normal speaking volume. Why did this happen? Why do things always go wrong for me? Can't I just watch and not say anything?
"Oh, who is that? It's our new student. Francis, can you say that again? I didn't catch it," Marcus said to me with a smile, questioning my comment. I could see his eyes turning red as if he was trying to intimidate me, but it didn't work.
"I said idiot. And if you're wondering who I said it to, it's you." People around us started whispering. Some joked that I would get cut in half by both men for interfering, others thought I was high and didn't know what I was doing.
Marcus seemed to be focused on me now, and he seemed to have forgotten the whole reason he was standing in front of the school, surrounded by all the students in the first place. His eyes revealed a spectrum of emotions that were difficult to decipher, but I still knew that he wanted to make me regret speaking up like the idiot that I was.
"It's about time someone in this school had some sense," Ezra laughs, clapping in my direction while Marcus continued to ignore everyone around us as if we were alone in the courtyard and he could do whatever he wanted to me.
His predatory eyes made me shudder involuntarily and I cursed myself for letting him have an effect on me.
"Just remember, your dog won't always follow you around, witch," his grin widened and became even more creepy than it already was.
Despite my disgust and shudder, I wasn't completely afraid of him. I was afraid of his unpredictability and the fact that I could never really know what he was thinking or planning, but I was not at all afraid of his power or abilities after scanning him with my eyes and seeing his aura. After Marcus threatened me, he and his friends left for school. As they left, they kept their eyes on me until they disappeared behind the door. After feeling their eyes on me, especially on my body, I really needed to take a shower at home.
"Ignore him, Francis. Despite the way he looks and acts, he's just an idiot who likes to stick his thing in every single person he sees, and definitely not someone who would attack anyone. If it would make you feel better, I can punch him in the face for you," Adam said as he gently comforted me.
"Adam, we're here to avoid a real fight and now you want to start one? That's ridiculous." I replied, rolling my eyes.
"Don't worry about me, you of all people should know I can defend myself just fine." I reassured him after he gave me a doubtful look.
"You're brave, boy, but be careful who you mess with. We can't help you, and even if we could, we wouldn't." Ezra warned me as he walked past, his girlfriend clinging to his shirt as if he might disappear. I nodded and said nothing. I saw Ezra's girlfriend smile at me in gratitude as the vampires entered the school.
Lucas sighed, completely defeated, "It's only your second day, but you've already made enemies and still somehow prevented a fight. I don't even want to imagine what will happen next week." He sounded exhausted.
"It was much quieter without you, but who enjoys peace, huh?" Anna grinned and winked at me comically.
"Yeah," I replied as we walked back into the school, all four of us laughing at the situation.
