I was in my windowless room. My blue lamp that I had just got for my 17th birthday. I was laying in the comfiest bed in the world. I turned back around onto my stomach. I glanced to my right to see the water in my cup swaying back and forth like a sea storm. I closed my eyes imagining what it would have been like if these things weren't happening. I heard my family's screams one by one. They were no longer alive to see my reaction to their death. I heard my door slam open and a figure walk in.
"Take what you want. But if your smart you'll keep me. I have valuable information about your kind," I said as I got up from my bed. I pulled on jeans and a tshirt. I looked in to the males eyes. A woman stood behind this man a little taller than myself. I turned back to my night stand and put in my contacts. I went in my closet and knelt down looking at my shoes.
" which pair looks more 'I'm a hostage' to you?" I asked glaring up at them. They just stared and didn't speak. I grabbed my converse and put them on. I stood up and grabbed a jacket. I went up to the woman who had dark blue hair. It suited her quit well because it matched her eyes almost exactly. I putt my jacket in her arms and then went up to the male. His eyes were the same color blue also but his hair was dark brown. I turned around and put my arms into the air.
"Go ahead.tie me up." I stated.
"We won't tie you up, we will just keep an eye on you. " the male said in the softest voice I had ever heard. He grabbed my hand.
"Hey buddy I don't know who you are but don't think your going to get.." I stopped. The girl who looked to be his sister grabbed my other hand and held the males free hand. They started to whisper a song but it was more like a chant. I was so dizzy that my eyes stopped working. I still felt the others hands on my own. I tried screaming but nothing came out. This thing went on for about 5 minutes. Then I felt my feet hit something soft. I let go of the hands. I payed on the soft ground not being able to see. I started to get my vision back and stood up. The female and male we standing in front of me laughing. I brushed my self off. I was confused at first of where I was. I had only been here once when I was ten. It had changed so much in the past 7 years that it was almost unrecognizable. It was my mothers old office. I looked at the faces that had brought me here. I glared at them I hated this place more than anything. The girl grabbed my hand and dragged me into my mothers old office. She pushed me onto the couch that was covered in junk. The boy entered after her. They say down on the table in front of where I was. " you guys don't talk much do you?", I grinned and the male chuckled. The female shoved him in his rob age with her elbow. He made a face that I could tell he was in pain.
" listen if you tell us all you know we will let you go, but if you don't start speaking we will have to take you to our boss.", she said in a sneaky tone. I bit my lips. I couldn't tell them everything . If I did they would for sure kill me on the spot.
"What do you have in it for me," I replied.
"Your life that's what's on the line and if you don't start speaking...," the woman interrupted.
"Don't worry about him, he's just,"she smiled," really into girls who are bossy." He slapped his hand into his face.
" listen holly, I just met her and I haven't even gotten to know her and besides she's rude and isn't my type.." I zoned out. They were arguring and screaming in each others faces. I decided to try and escape. I remember my mother saying the best way to get out of a situation is to buy a choclate bar. I had always thought she was just stupid. But as I was walking out it hit me. She kept repeating b5 when ever I was with her at work. I ran into the break room. No one was there obviously because the whole office was probably dead at home like my family. I went to the vending machine and pressed b5. The vending machine opened up and there was a metal slide I jumped in. I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around to see the males face. I still hadn't gotten his name. I hit the concrete floor. I like around to see a empty room surrounded by concrete walls. He fell right behind me along with the woman who's name was holly. The metal slide started to shrink back up and into the vending machine above our heads. The male grabbed for it but it yanked away and sliced open his hand. I went to this male and took off my jacket that I had thrown on in the office. I wrapped his hand. My jacket was bloody but I didn't care. We were going to die inside this bunker like prison anyway. He grabbed my hand with his unsliced hand as I was turning to go.
"Thank you. Oh and my name is James." He let go of my hand and sat against the wall. Holly sat down next to him. I rested my head on my knees.
" um I don't think we ever got your name." James said. I raised my head
" my name is Paris." I set my head back down. They didn't care at all about who I was. They just wanted to waste the precious air that would only last 24 hours. James got up and came to sit next to me.
"Just an FYI she is my sister. So just in case you were wondering." He looked into my eyes as He spoke. I had never been in love but I knew this couldn't be what it felt like. I had butterflies in my stomach but that was only because I was talking to a male. It had to be. I rolled my eyes.
" we have to find some way out. My mom had to be able to get out of this cellar somehow cause I saw her at home. " i claimed. I started to run my hand against the wall searching for a notch or something indented. Holly got up and did the same. James just sat on the ground examining something in the far.
" James get up and help or if we do find a way out we will leave you" holly started.
"Shut up holly.i just found our way out. He started walking to the opposite wall. We followed curiously. He rubbed his unharmed hand against the corner of the walls and the floor. As James pressed a button that looked to be nothing more than a spec of dirt, the walls slid open. There was a large room with red velvet carpets. It looked to be thousands of years old. There was a small fire place with a small fire inside. Books in bookcases covered the walls. The ceiling very high. It looked as if it could almost be as high as the clouds. In the middle of the room were three chairs and two side tables. I walked over to one of the silver side tables where I saw a small price of paper. I picked it up and read out loud. "Heirs must call the proper words ego Stella" I looked at James and holly. They were examine the room. "Maybe it means you have to shout it. You know since your parents could have been the heir" James suggested. I screamed as loud as I could the words ego Stella. The room started to change. The others came into the center of the room to where I stood. The walls shrinked and became stone. The floor became a dark gray concrete. I turned around to where we had entered. The walls had shut and now along the circle was a series of tunnels with torches lighting the way. "Which one shall we take?" I said with one eyebrow raised. "Follow me I have an idea." James anwsered. He went down the one where we had entered had been. It felt like we walked for hours. When we finally came to the end there was a mass oak door with a metal Handel. I opened the door. On the other side was the room we had come from before it changed. We all exchanged looks of confusion. We sat down in each of the chairs. I could feel the time ticking away. It had to be at least 4 in the morning and I had not gotten any sleep. I slide off the chair and payed flat on my back. " I'm going to sleep. I suggest that you do to so we can find our way out in a few hours. Good night." I closed my eyes but then regretted what I had said before. They were hybrids and they probably don't sleep. "Yeah getting some makeup would be nice." James replied. Holly smirked." What if we laid next to each other to keep warm cause I'm kinda chilly." James put his fingers threw his hair and looked at the ground. "Sure whateves." I replied. Jake sat down in the middle and later flat on his stomach. "Is it comfortable that way?"I whispered. "For me yeah.you should try it."he answered. I turned around and since I had near a flat chest it was comfy. I fell asleep as soon as my head touched the ground. In my dream I heard my mom yelling at me. She told how horrible I was and that I should never of let them kill me. In this dream she took her long claws wich she never had in person along my neck. She started scratching my face and told me to tell the others of what happens inside my dreams. She was laughing hysterically. I woke up in tears. I never cry. Not even over a broken bone and this was new to me. James and holly got up and rubbed their eyes. James yawned and said, "you ok?" He went silent and looked at me. I was a mess. My hair was uncombed and the tears speared the mascara I had left on from the day before. I stood up and ran the other direction. I slammed the oak door behind me and heard it open again when I was half way down the path. I ran into an in known tunnel . I ran straight without looking straight ahead. Instead I kept my head turned behind me making sure I wasn't followed. As I turned my head around I slammed into a stone wall. My nose and forehead served with pain. My nose was dripping with blood. I slid down the wall with my back. I started crying. My life was falling apart and once these vampire/werewolf hybrids found me they were going to eat me for a snack. Either way I was going to be dead I just knew. I heard their foot steps along the hard floor. As they got closer I only heard one persons foot steps. The other had stopped I looked up to find James staring down at me.
He extended a hand to me. I grabbed it and stood up. " I'm sorry I ran I got scared." I choked on my tears. His hand touched my face. He wiped the blood from my nose. I could tell he was resisting to go nuts as a vampire. He brushed my hair behind my ear. I looked up into his eyes. They had changed color. Before they had been vibrant blue but now they were a green, reddish mixture. He looked back into my eyes and then to my lips and neck than back to my eyes. He grabbed me and pulled me close. I hugged him. My tears still running down my face. He was warm and I could feel his heart betting faster the longer we stood there. I pulled back. "Sorry James I didn't mean to I just." "No need to say your sorry." He inturupted. We walked back to holly. "Getting awfully close aren't we." She winked at me and then took another tunnel.
***********************************
It had been a week since we were in the tunnels. Holly and James took me to there hide out in the woods. It was huge but barely noticeable through the camouflage. They had given me a room and told me to stay. Inside there were claw marks everywhere. I assumed it was because they were were wolfs also. They had given me things to do such as coloring,reading, and a few board games. I pretended to be multiple players when I would play the board game. They had decent food. They had given me granola bars and water Bottles. About 7 days after we arrived James knocked on my door. "Come in" I shouted. He came in and sat down next to me. I was drawing a vampire shaking a werewolfs hand. "You know that's not anything what they look like." He scolded. I looked at him. I had imagined him to be serious but instead he had a smirk on his face. "You want to see what a real werewolf looks like?" He asked. I nodded. "You have to make me mad then." He winked as he said it. "Ok then. I can't BELIVE your not human. I mean someone like you belongs in a factory. Not saving life's like mine. And I hate hate you for killing my parents. They were the only ones I had left. You ruined my life!" I screamed. I had not meant any of these things. I instantly regretted it. He looked hurt. He then turned into a black hair Werewolf. He had shorter ears and a longer face. His teeth were sharp. I started to pet him. He howled then sat down next to me. I kissed him on the nose. His green dog eyes looked into mine. Once he turned back it had been awkward. We sat in silence as I drew. "Hey um the reason I came in here is because holly wanted to see you." He got up in left. I hated my family because they had killed my little sister when she was younger. I never knew why all they would say is' it was for the best'. I felt bad telling James that I missed them. I got up and walked into the kitchen where I heard hollys voice. As I walked in I saw another young man about my age. He had dark black hair and gray eyes. He was holding hollys hand. I looked at him and he stared at me. He want as good looking as James I thought.
"Who is she and why is she in this house! How long has she been here!" He was now shouting at holly she snatched her hand back. From a distance I saw a tear roll down her face. To my right out the window I could see James chopping wood. He slammed his axe into the tree stump. And ran over to the house. He must of heard this mans yelling. He opened the squeaky wooden door and slammed it behind him. I heard his foot steps behind mine. He grabbed my hand and turned me around. It be best if you were to go to your room. I couldn't speak loud enough over the other mans screams. I nodded and headed up the stairs, the floor boards squeaking under neath my converse. I laid on my bed. Why did he have an issue about me being here. I undressed. I was going through the clothes that holly had lent me. I grabbed an old stripped tshirt and slid it on. I heard footsteps coming up the stairs. I quickly slid off my jeans and grabbed a pair of shorts. The door slammed open. It was James. He looked at me and I quickly put on the shorts.
"I'm so sorry.umm" he ran his fingers through his hair and turned around. I smiled.
"It's fine but what are you doing in here you almost never come in my room." He turned back around. For a moment I thought I saw tear in his eye but then he turned around again. His hand was not on the door Handel.
"They don't want you here anymore. Even if you do have information. They said they don't want it." I ran to the door but he shut it in my face. Tears were now rolling down my face. I grabbed the clothes holly had given me and my water and shoved them into and old bag that hung from the closet door. I opened my door and ran down the stairs. I ran out of the house and just kept running. I had thought that just maybe I would fall in love with James and he would like me for who I am. I ran until the sun fell. When I saw the stars in the sky I laid against a tree root staring up at them. I was thinking so hard about what to do and where to go that I hardly got any sleep. When I woke someone was squatting rught in front of me. I rubbed my eyes and slid on my glasses. It was him. James had his hand on my face. He looked perfect with the sun hitting all of his facial features.
"He beautiful." He grabbed my face and started to kiss me. This was inturupted by somthing attacking him. I stood up to see a wolf eating away at his flesh. I screamed as loud as I could. I woke up for real this time. I was covered in a wetish type of sweat and my heart beating fast. I looked around. It was still night. I stood up and started to walk back to the direction where the house was. I saw the tree stump where James had been cutting wood. I looked on. No house. Not even in camouflage. The ground was bare. I started to panic. I. Couldn't breathe and fell to the ground. As I did I looked at the stump. It had a tiny little hold on the side with something white in the middle. I crawled over to it and took the white thing out. It was a noddles wrapped in a letter. I now could breathe normally. I sat up and in folded the letter. It read:
My dear Paris,
I know that right now you might be freaking out cause we have left. Don't. If you ever want to see me again you will drink this bottle. I have no time to explain. We have left for Albany, New York. I hope I might see you again.
Yours truly,
James S. CarterI opened the bottle. It had a weird smell to it. I drank it. Nothing happened. I looked around and everything went blurry. My head was starting to spin. I hit my head on the axe laying next to me.
****************************************
I woke up in a bed in a room I did not know. I felt my head and pulled back. My head was wrapped with bandages. I looked around the room. It must've of been a small girls room. It had blue curtains, yellow dresser, Wooden desk and and purple fluffy carpet. I stood up. I looked Down to see what I was wearing. I had on an elegant red satin dress. I got up and went over to the desk. I picked the piece of paper and read it.
Your in your evening gown. There is a wig in the closet that is close to your hair type. No one will know what happened.
I set it down and opened the closet. Inside sure enough was a wig and a pair of sparkly heels I slid them on and walked out of the the room. I opened the door and in front of me was a long hall. The walls and Floors were made of wood. I kept walking until I came to the end. I took a left into a medium sized room. It had an elegant couch with white carpetes and a tv. Behind the couch was a wall of windows that out looked a field. I sat on the couch and took off my heels. I had no clue where I was to go. The door slid open and in walked James. He grinned and sat next to me. When he sat down I glanced at the ground and slid on my heels. He grabbed my hand and set his other hand on the side on my face. I stared into his eyes. He looked into my eyes then lips and ten my to my eyes. He took back his hands and looked down any the ground were I had been staring earlier.
"They are in the dining room and since you are one now you are required to dress up. I went and bought these for you. I understand if you don't like them. Your bandages will be off tomorrow." He stood up and left. I got up and followed him into the dining room. There must've been over 100 people there. The walls were covers in a pinkish red colored wall paper with flowers. I sat down and it was so silent that you could hear a pin drop. Everyone started as I sat down at the corner next to James. He grabbed my hand under the table.from that moment on I knew I had a crush on him. He had gotten me things no one would have thought of and also held my hand. Even though he was a hybrid, I didn't care I loved him. He let go of my left hand and stood up.
"As you all are wondering why she's here let me tell you," he cleared his throat," Paris is now a hybrid just like us and there's nothing you can do." He sat down and his face said that he was nervous of how the clan would react. They applauded besides holly and her boyfriend. I stared at James. He didn't know what he was talking about. I'm not a monster. As we ate everyone kept silent. The only noise heard was the clinging and bumpin of silverware and plates. After we finished people got up and left. When it was finally just me and James he took my hands again. "I am sorry for what I have done to you but you'd be better off one of use."
My face was cringed up and I was confused. He grabbed my face and his lips touched my own. A few minutes later holly walked in and fake coughed. I pulled away from his grip and felt my face heat up. I knew what I had become but I had not felt it through the pain I had already been in. I was a hybrid
