''Who am i?'' He smirked. Then he stood up and turned around. He was wearing black jeans, boots and a hoodie. I couldn't see his face because it was dark and his hood was covering it. ''I'm Damon Skyler!'' He took his hood off and now i could see his face. He had bark brown hair, shorter from the sides and brown eyes which had certain spark within.

''Awesome! I'm Hope! It's a damn pleasure to meet the guy who has been scaring the shit out of me for the past two days and..'' I looked over at my dog. ''.. obviously dislikes animals... What did you do to him? And why are you following me? What do you want?'' I crossed my arms and tried to read his mind but for some reason i couldn't. 

''That's A LOT of questions!'' He smirked and checked me from top to bottom.

''You better have a good explanation.'' I walked over to Ray Ray. I heard him walking behind me. He made me quite nervous.

''Your dog's fine. I gave him some sleeping pills.. he was attacking me! He'll wake up in an hour!'' He stood next to me while i pet Ray. 

''How did you do that?'' I stood up.

''You mean how i gave him sleeping pills?'' A smile came to his lips and his ignorance irritated me more than i would have guessed.

''No i mean.. what was that bridge thing all about? And the pier thing as well.'' I managed a serious face. 

''I thought you were smarter, Hope! At least you should be!'' He walked over to the terrace stairs and sat down. I followed him. ''God forbid, can you just say what you want from me?'' I asked having a feeling that he's my stalker or something and half of me told me to run as far as i could from him but the other half told me to stay. That's confusing.

''I've been looking for you forever and when i finally found you i had to get your attention so i played with you mind. Boring entrances aren't really my thing.. so I thought it won't work on you because you're, you know.. or you don't.. but it did work. And by the time i realized that you might have no idea who you really are.'' He looked at me like i should understand everything.

''Like the effect of your drugs, who's your dealer?'' I asked giving him an interested look.

''Please don't tell me i'm right!'' He stood up and looked at me like i was a miracle. ''What?'' Now i was thinking about running.. i'm quite fast too you know. 

''Well, well, well.. one of the most powerful creatures of centuries doesn't know who she is!'' He smirked and clapped his hands.

''I'm Hope Grayson, 18 years old, I'm one of Miami Beach High School students and i have some malfunctions but otherwise i know who i am!'' He laughed.

''Hit me! Hit me as hard as you can!'' He stepped back and stretched his arms out. ''Trust me, you don't want it!'' I warned him and stood up.

''Just do it, give me you best shot!'' I hesitated but then i thought it was a good idea, maybe i could get rid of him.
I stepped closer to him, enhanced my power and hit him in the chest so hard he flew all the way to the pier. Few more feet and he'd be in the water.
I was ready to run to see if he's okay but i saw him standing up with a smile on his face. Few bricks broke under his feet when he stood up but he jumped away and didn't fell in. He walked back towards me. ''Just because you're a girl doesn't mean you have to hit me like one!'' Now it was my turn to stare at him like he was a miracle.. which he was. 

''It's impossible.. you should be..'' I couldn't believe my eyes that he was okay.

''Dead?'' I nodded. ''Well that's because i'm like you! I'm immortal!'' 

''What? It's a legend! Immortals don't exist!'' I shook my head and walked inside the house to get something do drink because i was feeling dizzy.

''Then how do you explain this?'' I turned myself around.

''Damon, i don't know, it was just a coincidence! You can't be immoral and you're not like me!'' I tried to ignore the fact that he just survived my punch.

''Listen Hope, we're both immortal, the last immortals on the planet! And the reason why i was looking for you is that you're more than just immortal, you're a Nephilim too!'' I was totally confused.

''What.. what do you mean a Nephilim?'' I tried to keep myself together. ''Come, sit!'' He took my hand and lead me to the couch.

''Here's the story.. once an elf used an immortal and they had a baby which was actually impossible. The baby was too strong for an immortal body so when she gave a birth to a baby girl she died. The legend said that if this would ever happen.. the baby would be more powerful than Nephilim and immortals. The Nephilim killed all the immortals in hope to find the baby and kill it before it's too late but the father gave the baby to a mortal family so the baby girl would be safe. Later the Nephilim killed the father too. And now the Nephilim are living in a fear that someone out the is stronger than them and might kill them all. They've been searching for her for years but they haven't found her.'' He told me calmly.

I stood up trying to digest his words. ''Well that's a lovely fairyt..'' He cut me off.

''That girl is you!'' He looked at me with his sparkly brown eyes but that was the last thing i saw because i lost my consciousness and fell down. 

I woke up in the morning by the sun shining on my face. I looked out of the window and the sky was clear and the sun was shining. My room had floor to ceiling windows on it's side to the pool and the shore. My double bed was in the middle on the other side of the room facing the windows. My bathroom and closet were next to my room's door on the left side of the room. On the other side of the room i had my desk and  shelves.

I sat up and tried to figure out how i got here but i couldn't. I was still in my hoodie. The harder i thought about last night i started to remember something about a boy telling that i was an immortal and a Nephilim. It must have been a dream. I changed my clothes to a red tank top and black high-rise jeans. I brushed my hair and put my them on my left shoulder. Then i went downstairs to get something to eat. ''Ray Ray, you hungry?'' I yelled for him while i took out the cereal. 

''I already gave him food, don't worry!'' I screamed and quickly turned around. I saw Damon leaning on the window with his back and looking at me.

''Please don't tell me it wasn't a dream!'' I closed my eyes hoping he'd be gone when i opened them.

''I'm sorry Angel it wasn't a dream!'' I opened my eyes. ''What did you call me?'' I raised my eyebrows.

''You don't like that?'' He walked closer to the kitchen area. ''Whatever!Is this all true you told me last night?'' I was hoping he'd say no.

''Every bit of it, whether you believe it or not!'' He sat down behind the kitchen bar.

''But if they killed all the immortals, how come you're here?'' I asked curiously. ''They missed one. Can you believe it.. i was hiding in the loft in a hay sack being just 2 years old and they couldn't find me. The saddest part was when i came down and saw my family lying in the room full of blood. I still can't get the picture out of my head.'' He looked down at his hands.

''I'm sorry!'' I really felt sorry.. i don't want to know what he must have felt. 

''When i grew older i was adopted by drug addicts. They abused me so i ran away. That's when i started looking for you.. but i was looking for you to kill you..'' I felt my muscles tense up. ''Don't worry Angel, i left the idea once i saw you. Everyone said that you were a monster before the Nephilim killed them. That's when i began believing it, sorry!'' I wasn't even really listening to him because i was realizing the hurtful truth.. Paul and Olivia aren't my real parents.. My real parents are.. dead..
