Date? Oh no no I'm not going on a date with Collin am I? No I'm not, I'm with Clay, not Collin, but why was I agreeing with meeting Collin at my place for a match. I will admit I was happy that I could express the side of myself I have to hide from everyone else besides Alex with someone like me, but I knew having Collin around would make things even more complicated.

Clay was already uncertain about Alexander but now that Collin was here there was no telling what his reaction would be when I tell him about Collin, if I even tell him. I could tell as soon as Clay realized that Collin and I knew each other that he hated him. I knew Katy also had her suspicions about him, but I didn't need that right now. What Collin and I were is in the past and I did not feel like bringing any of that up anytime soon.

I was currently driving home from a long and painful day of high school. I decided that I would relax today and stop worrying about all these sudden problems and just be calm for my transformation tonight. I turned up my radio and sang to here in your arms by hellogoodbye. The radio was blasting music as I sped down the road to my house. With the windows down and the light breeze hitting my face, I felt at ease. My belly interrupted my singing with a growl so I turned to a near by panera to get some food.

I got to panera and waited in line and ordered a broccoli and cheese bread bowl and a sweat tea. After I got my food I sat down and picked away at my bread bowl while texting Clay and Collin. Bad I know, but I couldn't help it. I was sitting silently when I heard someone tapping at my table. I looked up from my phone to see a man in his mid forties. He reached his hand out and gave me my wallet. I looked at my bag and realized that my wallet must have fell out. I thanked him and took the wallet from him.

" Anytime, what's your name dear?"

"Ohh I'm Amara, it's nice to meet you mr...?"

" Call me Daniel. "

" Okay well thanks again Daniel, but I should probably get going, umm bye. " I thanked him again before picking up my things and getting back in my car. I turned the music back up and drowned out my thoughts with the lyrics.

When I reached my drive way, I turned down the volume and pulled into my garage. I turned off my baby and hopped out of my car with my bag in my hand and phone in the other.

I unlocked my front door and shut it behind me as I entered the kitchen. When I came in my attention was drawn to Alex who was standing in the kitchen with his back towards me. He was mumbling into a cell phone at a very low tone that I could barley hear. Even when I tried to focus my hearing it was still too faint to pick up anything. I gave up trying to ease drop and sat down waiting for him to finish his call.

Alex noticed my presence and mumbled something else into the other line before hanging up and placing his iPhone back into his pocket. He turned to me with a question laying on the tip of his lips. " What happened today? ! could sense something is off. " he asked me curiously. " Well there this kid, Collin, and he moved here from England and....well I think that..he might.. hemightbeasòtèrlikeme.." I said quickly not wanting to upset Alex, I had no idea what his reaction would be. " What? Amara don't play with me, tell me what happened."

" Collin is a sòtèr like me..."

" What?! Are you sure? you didn't show him anything did you?"

" Calm down, yes I'm sure and no I did not show him anything, he seems to be a water god, from what he's shown me." I finish off with a huff. Alex studied me for a minute before speaking up again.

" Well we can discuss this later, right now we need to get ready so we can leave. I don't want you here while your transformation happens, you will need lots of space. "

I mumbled an okay and made my way upstairs after listening to what I should wear. I placed my stuff in my room and stripped of my clothes and replaced them with black tights and my black zipper jacket. I pulled them on and grabbed my lose and now frizzy hair and twisted it into a messy bun. I grabbed my niki shoes and put them in my bare feet as I made my way back downstairs.

When I reached the kitchen again Alex was waiting for me. He was also dressed in all black with a lose v neck t-shirt and black sweats. I also noticed the small cupcake in his hand with a candle placed ontop. I smiled at his gesture and took the cupcake out of his hand.

I saw Alex looking around for matches to light the candle but his face quickly went from focused to stupidity with in seconds after I lit my fingertips and struck the candle with my flame. I blew it out seconds after and popped the cupcake in my mouth.

Alex grabbed his car keys and lead me outside while I tried to choke out a thank you through the chunks of cupcake in my mouth.

" Don't talk with your mouth full you nut. " he spat at me and I punched him in return. I smirked as he winced in pain and climbed into his car. I followed after him and we were heading off to where ever he planned to take me for my transformation.

DANIEL'S POV

I honestly didn't have time for all this trouble, I'm retired and having nothing other than my wife and kids to take care of but somehow I still don't know how I get into messes like these. I had to come to the park near the woods to sort out some things with a couple of adults who were arguing and complaining about our current Luna problem.

I assured them that there Luna would come and told them not to worry. I couldn't blame them though, I also was waiting for our new Luna and the pack could really use one. My wife had taken over again temporarily until the new Luna showed to keep the pack in check. After I took care of those problems I stopped by panera and got some hot tea to sooth my stress.

I noticed a young girl had dropped her wallet on the way to the table so I picked it up and followed her to where she sat down. I tapped on the table to get her attention and reached my hand out and gave her wallet to her. She looked shocked at first and checked her bag to see if it really was hers and when she realized it was she smiled at me and thanked me for returning.

When she looked at me I immediately sucked my breath in with shock. She looked just like Emily... but that can't be, Emily never had children and she left a long time ago, in fact she should be dead by now. But this girls appearance matched hers exactly, like they were each others reflection. The only thing that seemed to be different about her was her big baby blue eyes, instead of Emily's dark forest greens. I looked closet at her until I realized I knew those eyes all too well.

Damian's eyes....

I didn't understand anything as of right now, but one thing was for sure, this girl had to be related to Damian somehow, I would know my own bestfriends relatives and I can honestly say that her eyes are exactly like his. I was dragged out of my thoughts when she announced that she had to leave. She thanked me once more before brushing past me. As she left I looked at her one more time.

My eyes caught onto something shinny and golden hanging from her neck. My face went pale at the sight of that necklace dangling from her neck....the same necklace Emily wore before she left 50 years ago...
