That night neither of us slept, and no we didn't do what Eros's potion would have us do, We spent all night trying to change my eye color. Or I did Jasmine would laugh like 75% of the time the other 25% she'd say to just deal with it.

I sighed and gave up not knowing how change my eyes back to normal... or well... back to green, my normal eye color would be a dark brown.

"just deal with it Kitty, they aren't tha-" she couldn't even finish what she was gonna say from her laughing fits, all I could was groan and smash my head against the magic tome "I. DON'T. WANT. PINK. EYES!!" I yelled loudly against the book. Jasmine laughed hard, in fact so hard that she somehow ended up on my bed only to fall to the ground.

I growled and stared at the pages, spells to bound people to animals, summons, shape shifting, enhancing senses, gaining ability by drinking blood of your enemy, there's even one on talking to animals. You could find every spell you could ever need in this book... except one that can change your eye color.

I sighed and planted my head on the book, being so close to giving up, but Jasmine got up and poked my neck "hey Kitty not to alarm you or anything, but your neck is shiny".

I could only blink as i sat up and stared at the necklace, it gave away it existed by shining its silver glow "why did Aphrodite gave me her blessing" I asked softly.

Jasmine glared at me "She almost made us do something we would most likely regret, and you accept her blessing!?" she asked furiously.
I did what every guy would do in a situation like this "um... I dunno".

Jasmine growled louder and stuck her tongue "stupid reason, but I've heard worse" with that she jumped on my bed and curled up "I'm tired, if you find anything, don't wake me up" she said before pulling the covers over her head and falling asleep.

I giggled and keep reading this book, I'm pretty sure that by now I have memorized every spell on this tome, that and I got better at summoning things, no longer get dizzy after summoning a cup of water.

Night fell and the day rose, I was still awake reading the tome, not looking for something that could help me with the eye color, but rather curious on this whole magic thing, I guess the more you read into it the less energy you'll be using the spells. Jasmine was still asleep even if the sun was already out, so I decided practice with my fire, so far I noticed that my fire only burns what I want to burn, kinda like if I wanted to melt a sword, but not the person holding it, I figured this out by holding a small flame between a notebook and a plant, the notebook burned down while the plant didn't, luckily that notebook only held math equations... What? Some go zombie late at night, I get smarter... I know, weird

So far I can make any size fireballs, cover myself in flames, and cause quite the prank, you see since Jasmine and I share the same mark; our fire doesn't hurt us, but it does stay wherever it's put. Basically I covered Jasmine from head to toe on fire, along with a few more things.

"FIRE!!" I yelled causing Jasmine to jump awake and run out of the cabin screaming, only to march back in and throw whatever was in her reach towards me "YOU. FREAKING. CAT!!" she yelled while throwing stuff.

As a natural cat I did dodged... Most of the things anyway, the fire that was on Jasmine had now died down, but her eyes grew sharp and smirk came across her ruby lips, before I could say anything she rushed out of the cabin leaving me in mixed feeling between scared and curious.

I realized I still had the suit on, I closed the door and went back to wearing my black shirt with wing pattern on the back, torn jeans, and some gray sneakers. Jasmine was taking long I was messing with my hair ruffle, it's longer than when I came to camp, it could now cover an eye slightly, but I wasn't going with the emo hairstyle so I combed it back covering my ears with it.

Suddenly a lightning bolt slammed my door open and flew straight against the bident that was on the wall "Oh Kittyyyyy come out and playyy" Jasmine said with a very annoyed tone, I mewled loudly and jumped out the window, Jasmine growled and ran at me, with fear in my eyes I ran away from her dodging whatever she threw my way. Somehow someway she caught up to me and held me down "gotcha you ca..." Jasmine stopped talking and quickly laid down on me "Kitty there's a chimera over there" Jasmine whispered into my ear, my eyes widened and filled rage and hatred "I'm killing it!"

Jasmine held onto my mouth and shushed at me "be quiet you doofus she can kill us" she whispered violently to my ear, but I couldn't hear her I was already drowned in anger, I could only think of killing the damn thing. My fangs grew to the point where they would stick out of my lips, my nails grew and sharpened, claw like, these knew assets came with a lot of growling and hissing, also a new found strength. Jasmine caught up on these changes I had, she jumped off my back and hid in a bush.

With nothing holding me down I ran quickly on all fours against the beast, in fact, fast enough that the chimera didn't notice me, when I got close enough I jumped onto her back and dug my claws into the monster's back, she roared in pain and tried to throw me off, only thing she did was slide me around her back making it gape open from my claws still in it, blood shooting out spraying me completely, I grinned and pulled one hand out only to stab her back repeatedly, this in returned made her roar, spit fire (yes, chimera's can breath fire), and make weird noises, I laughed and pushed my claws deeper into her flesh.

With my repeated stabbing, the beast soon fell down from blood loss, with a smirk I got up and wiped the blood off of me in what seemed to be a shore... I just realized, Jasmine chased me down to the coast of long island "um.....was I ... that fast?" I mumbled.

Jasmine flew on my side "so you just now realized... Kitty you got scary back there" I sighed and nodded "sorry....I hold a grudge to that chimera...it was the one that killed Jesse" Jasmine nodded and leaned against my shoulder "well I hope you're happy"

I nodded and was about to say something, but my head grew lightheaded and instantly passed out on the sand.

After I woke up, I was still on the beach, but Jasmine wasn't on my side, instead she was laid down a few feet away from me, I had to go check on her, so I stood up and walked over to her, but she wasn't... Alive.

Her eyes were closed, but her chest was open revealing her insides. My limbs moved on their own and traced her jaw, I felt no loss, no sorrow, I was hollow.

My fingers went on her heart and ripped it out, holding it close to my lips I gave it a tentative lick, her blood was sweet just like a cupcake, I wanted more, but my playful side came over, with both hands I pulled her guts out and started flailing them around as if they were rainbow strings attached to a stick.

Every single organ that Jasmine had inside of her now are filled with bite marks and spread around her in an organized chaos, but my playthings were running out, with a swift move I used one my claws and cut myself open only to pull out my own guts and tangle them along with hers, the sand around us now a red carpet, our guts knotted around each other. But my play time was over, the amount of blood loss and the fact that my guts were splattered everywhere was a... small sign I was dying... My vision blurred, my hands felt weak, I lost control over my own body. Last, but not least I slumped over Jasmine's body and slowly closed my eyes.
