Dusk

Sharing the big secrets

Slowly I sat up rubbing the sleep out of my eyes as I recalled the conversation of last night. Some how, some way I had to warn Ashley of Dimitri's plans. It didn't matter that in doing so she would find out about us, all creatures that are supernatural know of one and other. I quickly got out of bed and got in the shower. It was earlier than I would normally get up because I didn't want Dimitri to follow me. I took a speed shower. I speed changed and pack my bag. I grabbed my phone and raced out the front door.

I sped down the street and stop when I was half way there. I took time to text Dimitri telling him I left early to go to the beach. Her reposed seconds later saying okay meet you at the lockers. I replied with will do and kept running. I ran all the way to the caffe.
Ashley's sister was just opening the side door. "Hey!" I shouted and she turned around as I jogged over to here. "Your Ashley's sister?"

"Yes".

"Hi I'm Hayley, Ashley and I are friends I was just wondering if you new where she was?"

"She went to school early".

"Thanks". I ran of before she could say anything. I ran faster and faster and I didn't stop till I was in the school hall way. 

I rang Ashley. "Pick up, pick up". Finally she picked up the phone. "Ashley it's me Hayley where are you".

"At school why?"

"No I mean where are you in the school?"

"The library".

"Stay there and don't move and whatever you do if you see Dimitri do not talk to him you understand".

"I think so but Hayley why_"

I hung up before she could ask anymore questions and raced to the library. I looked through the window of the library and Ashley was sat writing. I burst through the the library door, to noisily apparently as the librarian told be to be quite. Ashley looked up at me and mouthed what's wrong. I sat down and grab a pice of paper and pen. I drew water with and arrow pointing to a girl which I labeled Ashley then I drew and equals sign and after the equals sing I drew a tail. She gasp and her hand shot up over her mouth. "What gave it away?" She asked a worried tone in her voice. "When you didn't want to come in the water at the beach but you said you liked swimming and Dimitri told me what happened in class yesterday".

"You can't telly anyone I'm begging you".

"That's the point I came to warn you, Dimitri knows about you and he wants to make sure I'm not quite sure what he's planning but involves you with a tail". I whispered the word tail quietly. "He can't not in front of everyone not at school".

"Don't worry he won't I will make sure of it. What I don't understand is why he would want to see you with a tail when he new mermaids existed anyway". She looked at me in shock. I knew what she was thinking, how do a couple of humans know that mermaids actually exist. Time for another cartoon drawing. I picked up the pen and drew the moon with an arrow pointing to a boy and a girl label me and Dimitri the I drew a equals sing and a wolf. "Your a werewolf?" She whispered the word werewolf. "Yes my whole family is".

"So it runs in the family you didn't kill anyone under a full moon and you weren't bitten?"

"No it runs in the family and Dimitri's family".
