The Book Of Life

Epilogue

Kory, Alyx and Arron practically demanded we come out tonight. Well, sneak out. A lunar eclipse was going to happen tonight and they seemed to be too excited.

"Slow down Kory! How'd your mum even let you out?"

"Because she knows what tonight is!"

"Well we don't." Tori stated.

"A lunar eclipse always boosts a supernatural's power. Mainly a Witch's and a Vampire's but it can also offer other things for other Supernatural's."

"For Werewolves' it allows our senses to be twice as sharp. It also brings the wolf side closer." Arron explains.

"So that means we can shift to and back from our wolves!" Alyx adds.

Tori's face is a bit pale otherwise her eyes are screaming excitement.

"Come on! I want to take you to a Supernatural pub!" Kory shouts to the sky!

"Uh! Hello people are still out. And I don't know if anyone else has noticed but I'm the only one eighteen!"

"Yeah, you're shouting!"

"Fuck off! No way in hell I am, Arron."

"Hey, we all won't get as drunk as normal humans. Supernatural's have different genes in their bodies that are so close to humans- that's why some humans are turned into Supernatural's- and a perk of that allows us not to be drunk as fast as a human. A lightweight in Supernatural terms would be a Midweight in human terms." Kory laughs at our expressions as Alyx explains.

"Plus, we know this bartender. Remember Freya?" Kory says.

Recognition dawns on my face. "Are you sure she'll let us drink? I mean, me of course but she won't be as blind as the others to me ferrying you drinks."

"She let's a lot of Supernatural things go on in her bar. That's mainly who it's for. And plus, many won't care- if they do Frey will kick 'em out- many Supernatural's are allowed to drink at seventeen because their more responsible than humans."

"Plus there's a law stating that even though we too have to be eighteen to drink legally; if we are friends or family members with the supplier than it's fine."

"That....Sounds rather stupid." Tori states.

"It is. But we won't get as drunk or drunk at all compared to humans." Kory reminds her.

"I have a feeling I'm going to be drawn into this." I sigh.

"And Kat. As Queen, we get a free pass as your friends." Alyx giggles excitedly.

"Yeah right. Like I'm letting you exploit me." I laugh.

"Katlyn!" Tori whines. "At least let us have som-"

"Have you ever heard of sarcasm? Or is your brain not working tonight."

"Come here you b-"

"Whoa! Whoa! Freya doesn't allow young adults into her bar if they're fighting." A voice articulates.

"Wow! Referring to yourself in third person?" Kory snorts.

Rey laughs. "Good to see you again Katlyn!"

"You too, Rey." She gives me a big Koala hug and I struggle to pry her arms off me.

"So you're Tori."

"And your Freya."

"I swear you used to do art at our school....." Tori mumbles.

"Quite right, little Witch." Freya chuckles. "I did do art while you guys we're in year eight- Covid for grade twelve was a nightmare. So many video calls......"
