Will's p.o.v: It was awkward the next day at school with Ashe and Emma giving each other the stink eye anytime the group would meet up during the day. Then finally lunch rolled around so I was expecting Emma to not sit with us and Amber to follow which would be a bummer since I actually like sitting with her.
Surprisingly the girls still sat at our table though even though Emma was acting aloof.
That's when this girl and two other girls walked over to our table. I looked up to see who it was getting a surprise of a lifetime when it was Delaine Diaz the head of the cheer squad and her two side kicks who annoyingly follow here around agreeing with everything she says. The girls looked annoyed with the cheerleaders being here which I didn't blame them.
"Oh " Drake said when he noticed them then he popped a mint in his mouth and tried to work his "charm". It was kinda hard to watch.
"So what brings a fine place like this to a girl like you?"
"Shut up loser we're not here for you"
Delaine said followed by her two cronies repeating what she said like an echo. "We're here for him" she said pointing to Ashe.
"Yeah we're here for him " " the reason we're here is for him" the two cronies said again like we didn't just hear her say that. "Cool go away " Ashe said not interested in what they were saying. "Wait just hear me out " she said pulling out a small slip of paper and handing it to Ashe. Ashe looked at the slip of paper then looked back at her saying "are you serious? You know I don't like parties especially with kids from this school" Wait she invited him to a party ?
"C'mon it'll be fun plus you can bring your loser friends" this made Ashe glare at her but then he sighed and seemingly concided.
"Whatever I'll go just leave me alone " "Okay great" she said surprisingly happy then walked away with her slaves quickly following her. Ashe was about to rip it up when I told him to wait which surprised everyone even myself. "Huh what's wrong ? " Ashe asked leaving me in an awkward position since I wasn't thinking when I said it but Drake knew exactly what to say. "What Will is trying to say is don't be to hasty this party is a good way to pick up some chicks and be seen as the cool guys we are."
Ashe seemed surprised and turned to me "wait do you want to go to this party Willy?"
"Well yeah I think it could be fun."
Ashe shot me a smile and said "then we'll go " which caused Drake to jump up in excitement.
"Wow I can't wait we haven't been to a party since last year." Emma said to Amber gleefully but her hope's were quickly squashed.
"Who said you were going?" Ashe said
"well she said and I quote bring your loser friends. "
"And who said you were my friend?" Ashe retorted
"What?!" Emma screamed "because of our fight that you instigated me and Amber can't go to this party?"
"I never said anything about Amber she can come she didn't do anything wrong."
"Well she's my friend so she's staying with me "
Amber held her head down and said "Actually I kinda wanted to go to this party with Will" then gave me a small smile which made my face hot and my heart skip a beat.
"Fine you obviously care about them more than me " Emma retorted before storming off.
Amber told her to wait but she didn't listen
"Just leave her " Ashe said "she'll be fine ".
"Wait you want to go with me?" I asked still in awe that she said that so in response she turned to me and said
"Of course Why wouldn't I want to go with you ?".
"Well.......I.......uh" I was at a loss for words when I felt Drake tap my shoulder then give me a thumbs up.
"Nice "

Stella's p.o.v: 15 years earlier

"Aaaaaah" Her screams filled the night....her deafening voice......that's what woke me up from my sleep that night. My brother wasn't there he was on a mission by the order so it was just me and Aurelia plus the guards around the manor. One of the many strange occurrences from that night was the fact the creature managed to get in. The whole sanctuary was guarded from the creatures from Novem portas it should have been detected as soon as it entered this plane of existence.......but it didn't.
Hearing her screams I reflexively ran into her room even though I didn't actually have a way to defend myself since I wasn't a knight like my brother. It was a stupid thing to do but I put on this brave front like I was a hero when I was far from it.
I swung open her chamber doors to see her lying unconscious on the floor and a creature looming over her.

It had a yellow hooded robe on and revolting green tentacles coming from under it's robe. It faced me and said
"İ'łł ßé ßåçķ" the noise that left it's mouth gave me a headache then the creature vanished in thin air.
As for Aurelia she used to be a curvy tan girl with turquoise hair,hazel eyes,and a beautiful smile that filled the room with sunlight but now she was a pale lifeless husk lying on the floor. She was gone forever and there was nothing I could do about it.
