   the moon rose high in the sky, bright and full. The stars sparkled and made me angry. Made me feel worse then an ugly night would've.

   I walked into Chrystal's Council and made my way to the clothing room. I picked out the specialised clothes. Black pants, protected by magic. Black tank top that had magic sewn threw it, keeping it impact proof. The I picked out the last leather jacket. A pair of leather combat boots and a cool looking belt.

   Once out of the council again I made my way back to my place. The place that Nicandro had lived before I came and ruined his life. Before his life was stolen.

   I walked in and stuffed the new clothes into the back I had already packed. I was ready to go. But I still wanted to talk to Chrystal again.

   After tonight it would be goodbye Chrystal's Council.

   It was my fault Nicandro was dead. I had to get out, get away.

   Before I zipped up my bag I grabbed one of Nicandro's jumpers and put that in with my own stuff.

   I sat on his bed and got out my book to read, not daring to fall asleep. In the morning I would make things better.
