I jumped on to the tree trunk grabbing a branch and lift myself into the tree. I climbed mostly to the top and crouched hiding in the leaves. I pulled my crossbow from my back holster and looked through the scope.

You are probably wondering what I'm doing or who I am. Well I am Alexis Thornton and I am a 17 year old hunter. No, not the typical hunters who hunt deer and coyotes. I hunt creatures. What kind of creatures? Well there are Werewolves, Vampires, Demons, ect. Anything evil, I hunt it. Why? Because they exist and killed my family. My dad was part of the hunting organization, the best hunter out of the organization to be exact.

The organization is where hunters hunt evil creatures that are harassing the human world. So hunters kill them off, my dad was one and well five years ago, the Vampires and Rogues got pissed that they were dropping like flies. So they got to our house in Oregon, and they kidnapped my 7 year old brother. My parents and I geared up but it turned into a trap. My parents were killed and so was my brother. Right in front of me. They would of killed me too but a vampire saved me. That vampire became my family. The only family I have now.

A tree branch snapped and interrupting my thoughts. I looked where the sound came from and raised my crossbow, I looked through the scope and saw a person walking through the forest. It was a male with dark brown hair, plaid red shirt and jeans, he looked about 6.1. I couldn't tell if it was a human or a vampire. His back was turned so I couldn't see his eyes. Blood red eyes means vampire but if it's a Werewolf with red eyes and fur has a tint of red, it's a rogue the chose to be a rouge and must be killed immediately.

"C'mon, turn around. Let me see your eyes." I mumbled. The person was just standing there looking out the forest not moving. He was just staring. Weird.

I grabbed a rock from my bag and tossed it to the left of me hoping to make the guy turn around. He just stood there. It was almost like he was a statue. I grabbed another rock and did the same thing. Again no movement. What if I chuck the rock at him?

I tossed the rock at him and it his leg, he instantly turned around looking furious. He was now facing me and I can see a gash above his eyebrow. Looking at his eyes you can tell they were green. Bingo! Not a vampire and by the looks of it, it's also not a demon by his blood. If he was a demon, his blood would black. His blood is normal scarlet red. He either can be a Werewolf, warlock, or a human.

I looked at my watch and it read 7:03 am. Crap. I have a little bit of time before I go to school. I looked at guy and he was gone.

"Shit. He was just there!" I mumbled quietly. I groaned then jumped from the tree and onto the forest ground and took of running to my house. Once I got there I opened the door and ran into my room. I threw my weapons and my bag onto my bed and changed out of my hunters clothes.

I jumped into the shower and quickly dried my hair. I braided my hair normally and I threw on a camouflage tank top with a leather jacket, jeans and some black combat boots. I grabbed a silver knife and a wooden stake and put them in my boots. I grabbed my school bag and put the rest of my weapons away.

I looked at my watch and it read 7:23 am. Perfect timing. I have awhile half an hour before I have to be on school grounds so I ran down my stairs and into the kitchen to make some eggs. Yum. I sat down to eat them and then I heard a sound I quickly grabbed my knife and turned around and sliced the person on the arm.

It was Thomas, my best friend who saved me three years ago. Thomas does not drink human blood like regular vampires do, he only drinks animal blood making his eyes only have a tint of red. And no he does not sparkle like from Twilight and Vampires indeed can sleep if they want too, they don't have to but they can. Thomas has wild jet black hair, blue eyes tinted red, he has a smile that all girls fan over. He usually always where a cutoff tank top with jeans.

"Fuck! Silver, really?" Thomas hissed in pain, holding where I had cut him.

"Thomas! I told you not to sneak up on me!" I exclaimed grabbing the first aid kit and took an alcohol gauze and wiped his cut. Dang that's a deep cut.

"Sorry Alexis. It's a habit." He said shrugging.

"A habit to get you killed!" I said sitting down finishing my eggs. Thomas sat down beside me and looked at me.

"What?" I asked. He shakes his head.

"Nothing, c'mon. School is going to start soon." He said smiling and grabbing his bag and walking out the door. I groaned and put my plate in the sink. I grabbed my bag and head out the door. First day of senior year. Yay. Not. This is just going to be great.
