Aphrodite
Ten years, it's been ten years since that night. Yet I still have nightmares.
I look at the clock that read 5:30 a.m. I let out a sigh as I decided to go for a run. Those always help clear my mind.
My mom is usually at work and my brother is probably still sleeping. My dad is... Well I don't really know, let's not talk about that.
I put on my running shoes and headed out the door with my iPod I played a random playlist and trekked to the woods beside our house.
My family and I live in a good house about two stories with four bedrooms with two full bathrooms and one half bathroom. We live in a small town in Northern Idaho. We recently moved here.
I've been running for about half an hour and I was breathless I noticed a lake and stopped to take a breath.
I was just about to start running when I heard a growl. I slowly turned around to see a wolf walking towards me.
It was bigger than any wolf I have ever seen, then again we used to live in Texas and there weren't many wolves there.
The wolf slowly shifted towards me letting out a number of growls. It hunched down ready to attack and I stayed glued to my place watching as the wolf was ready to attack and just as it was about to spring towards me another wolf jumped on it and it's large teeth were lost in the other wolf's furry neck, killing it.
I let out a shrill scream and turned around to run the way back home.
When I got home I checked the time to see it was 6:30. An hour and a half till my first day at a new school.
I took a shower and heard my brother yell at me and told me to hurry up. I didn't realize I was in the shower for at least twenty minutes.
As I walked out of the shower I dressed in a simple outfit, mostly black items, and paired it off with my favorite jacket and black boots.
I walked downstairs to see my brother impatiently waiting for me.
"Finally." He muttered.
"I heard that." I replied in an annoyed tone.
"You were supposed to little sis." he said with a cheeky grin.
"You're literally older than me by seventeen minutes." My brother, Percy, and I are twins and he tries to use the 'I'm older' card all the time.
"Still older." He said in a sing-song voice.
"Whatever lets just go before I rip your ears off." I muttered.
"Hey I like my ears." He whined. We walked outside to his red 1998 mustang.

When we arrived at school everyone stopped and looked at us.
"Time for a show?" I asked my brother, raising an eyebrow with a little smirk.
"Hell yeah!" he yelled.
As we stepped out most of the people were still staring so I cupped my hands around my mouth and yelled, "You can stop staring now!"
My brother burst out laughing next to me as we walked to the front doors to our new school. I couldn't help but look around curiously as I felt I was being watched.
As we made are way to the office a guy we bright ocean blue eyes came over and put his a around my shoulder.
"Do you are a map cause I'm lost in your eyes." He said in a low voice and smirked.
I gave him a mocking laugh and patted his chest then slowly shoved him away, "No, but do you have a mint? 'Cause your breath stinks." I said and walked away with a scowl on my lips.
Percy chuckled and elbowed my side. "Good one sis." I just gave him a smirk and kept walking.
After what felt like forever we found the office and as we walked in I noticed a bleach blonde secretary painting her nails an annoying shade of pink.
"Hi!" I gave the secretary, Miss Tellery, a smile. "I'm Aphrodite Quinn and this is my brother, Percy, we're new here we need our time tables." I finished in a nice tone. But she ignored me.
Clearing my throat she looked towards me and rolled her eyes and continued painting her nails.
"Okay, listen!" I stated in a loud voice making her jump in fright. "I asked you nicely the first time and my patience is rubbish so would you please just give us the time tables."
"Y-Yes " She stuttered out handed is our stuff.
"Thank you." I said slowly as I eyed her. She just popped her gum and rolled her eyes. I just tipped her nail polish everywhere and walked out, with my brother laughing behind me.
We found out we have almost all of the same classes together. Percy and I walk to math, our first class, with Mrs. Walsh. Weird name.
