How long? How long is she going to curse me in this retched world? My life was fine. I stared at the humans from my throne, not envying their little world. I played with their destiny and watched as I made the wrong people fall in love. Humans becoming my puppets and I their master, creating a show that amused me.
Mother wasn't amused. She Loved her humans. Adored them. She created them to keep herself busy to watch over them and protect them. But there were things she couldn't protect them from. She couldn't protect them from each other because she loved them all too much to punish them. So as they started dying she made them her angels. Of course the first angels that started showing up thought that I was one of them and my mother never told them that I wasn't.
I was a goddess and my mother made the dead humans think that I was one of them. A dirty human who died. They don't compare to me, not even a little. While they were dying of natural causes, war, drug, suicides and other causes, I was thriving. I was eating whatever I felt like eating. I didn't starve. I didn't need much food but I ate because it satisfied my tastes buds. I was playing with their fate and ruining their futures.
Like I said before I was the master and they were the puppets, I loved it that way. Until my mother noticed her precious humans were dying and falling in love with the wrong people. She decided that in order to understand them I had to live like them. Of course she sent me down here but she couldn't take all my powers. I was less powerful but nevertheless still powerful at least compared to the other creatures my mother created besides the humans. She created the faes, the werewolves, the elves, and the children of the night.
I bear my mother's birthmark which means whatever she can do, I can do it as well which was not to brag is amazing. My mother can control the natural. She can control earth, air and water but not fire. I can do all four but I never did understand why I got fire but mother didn't. I asked my mother but she never told me. She didn't want to. She said my father must have something to do with it and then left it at that.
With all that power I posses I was sent here. Decades have passed and here I am still looking like I'm 18. Which is a surprise because only until now did I have to go to school. I mean I've learned the language and I've learned to read and write but I never thought that I would have to actually attend school. I mean I used to be called the countess. I use to wear those powdered wigs and those corsets. I used to be a flappers girl. I worked at a factory during the wars. And now I had to go to school because it was the law. What horsecrap.
I didn't understand how the modern day schools worked. I studied the creatures that lived everywhere and I even made myself a castle for myself. I made sure it was far into the woods where no creatures or humans would dare check. I haven't gotten any interactions with my mothers creations and it was all well. Until my clothes started getting a little too small on me and I had to go to the store. When I entered the store two policemen told me that I had to be in school and quickly escorted me into the nearest school. It was all like a mall and the front was littered with cars, both old and new. They had stared at me like if I was a new specimen and I didn't understand why. There eyes were dilated and it was nothing new to me. Many humans stared at me like that I didn't understand why and I stopped asking myself after hundred of years of having those stares.
I thought they would have left after they dropped me off but they stayed and made sure I was enrolled and even then they didn't leave. They escorted me to my first class and made sure to tell the teacher not to let me leave without an escort which was stupid. But then I got a feeling. The hairs at the back of my neck stood and I looked around. I found several eyes looking at me and I understood that they were not humans. After the policemen left the teacher asked me to introduce myself.
"I'm Anais. I'm 18 and hopefully I leave this place to get more clothes that fit me soon." With that I walked to the back of the room where the non humans were. I sat down and the teacher started talking. I put my elbow on the desk and I put my chin in the palm of my hand and stared at the boy to my right. His posture seemed to look relaxed but from the corner of his eyes he was looking at me. "So let's see. No pasty skin. No gold flecks in your eyes. You are taller than an elve. Which means that you my dear boy are a werewolf." I had gotten closer to him and he stiffened as I whispered the last of my sentence. I leaned back into my seat and I smirked. I noticed that most of the non humans where looking at me. I waved to them and they started glaring at me. "How do you know about werewolves?" He whispered. I wanted to laugh but a simple chuckle left my lips. "My dear boy, you aren't the only one supernatural species to exists." with that I leaned even further into my seat and I started getting bored.
A breath escaped my lips and I saw a few humans shiver. I started getting up until the teacher stopped me. "Please sit down Anais. We still have 15 minutes left." She gestured to the clock and I looked at it. It was all just little lines moving and I stared at her incredulously. "Am I supposed to sit here and listen to you for fifteen more minutes?" She nodded and gesture to my seat. "Yes so please take your seat." I walked to the door and I heard her getting angrier. "Anais take your seat or I will have to ask you to go to the principal." I shrugged and said "Go ahead I don't even know who the hell he is. So do your worst woman, I don't care." With that I walked out of the room and started into the hallway, trying to find my way out of the school.
Since the school was really big and I have gotten lost in a lot of the hallways I decided to interrupt a classroom and ask. I opened the door and walked in. The teacher raised his eyebrow and I smiled. "Hi, I'm new here and I need to leave so can you point me to where the exit to this hell may be?" I looked at the students and I saw some of them looking at me with an amused expression but one person caught my eye.
He was gorgeous. I have seen some fine men but It's been a while since I've seen one like him. His eyes were intense and dark while his nose was a strong and straight. His jaw was sharp and his lips were plump and pink. He was staring at me and in a moment I felt a little lost but I quickly regained my thoughts when I felt someones had grabbing me roughly by my forearm. "Where you planning on ditching young lady?" I despise being touched by humans unless I allowed them to. Humans were filthy and lowly creatures who should not touch a goddess.
I gritted my teeth and spoke. "Let go of me unless you want to lose a hand." He held on tighter and I felt my blood start to boil and my hands warming up. The arm that he wasn't holding onto was clenching into a fist and I was preparing myself to punch the living daylights out of him when a voice spoke.
"I'll take her to the principal, Mr.Rom." In a flash the teacher had let go of me and he was nodding at him and the boy grabbed my arm and pulled me along. My jaw was hurting from clenching my teeth so hard and as soon as we were out of the room I ripped my arm away from him. I gave him a glare and started walking away.
"Where are you going?!" without saying anything I started running and I heard him try to run too but I was faster than he was. Werewolf or not he was slow. Without breaking a sweat I saw a a door leading to the outside and I see a fence. I run faster and then jump on to the top of the fence and then jump off the fence and keep running until I'm far away from the school and I go to finally buy the clothes that I need before going home where I take a quick shower, eat dinner and then go to sleep.
