The Beast Inside Me

Welcome to the family

Miranda took me to some crappy building but when we got in it looked a lot more attractive. It was well decorated and had a really nice smell for some reason. And also the building looked a lot bigger from the inside than it did from the outside cos from outside it was just like a bungalow but on the inside it was about three stories. Well that didn't bother me cos I had seen a lot more creepier things for the past month. " Jullian? Xenovia? Brian? Anyone around? " Miranda asked. There was silence for some seconds but then we heard a voice from upstairs. " What do you want Miranda? " the voice asked, " I got something really important for all of you! Get down here! " Miranda answered. After about a minute I heard someone walking down the staircase, I stared at him for some seconds. He was a slim figure, an appropriate height, blue eyes and soft black hair that stopped at his shoulder, he was really attractive in my opinion. " Miranda? Who is she? " he asked, " Oh, this is the girl I was talking about! Mara! I've got great news! " Miranda said. " Hmm, interesting. Hey, I'm Jullian, you must be Mara?" he asked me with a sexy look on his face, I was literally melting at that point. " Um... Yeah, I'm Mara" I told him, I was shaking so much. " Well I guess you're like one of us? " he asked me " well yes, obviously " I told him. " Well, you're a werewolf and I'm a pure blood. You've probably never heard of one before but well we can do cool things like fly teleport, read minds and other cool stuff. I don't mean to brag but I'm the leader here, and it's my pleasure to welcome you to the family" Jullian said, " what family?! " I asked in confusion. " Well you know? The family of all of us who aren't human, you finally have somewhere you belong and we are more than happy to welcome you. Come on get down her Bridget" he said.
Then some girl playfully walked downstairs. she had really long ears so I already guessed she was an elf and then another guy who had a not so friendly demeanor walked down, Jullian said he was a vampire and his name was Brian. Another girl levetated into the scene, she looked really quiet and apparently she was a ghost and immediately Jullian mentioned this it just reminded me of Summer, her name was Xenovia. A lot of other people were introduced to me, I had this weird feeling of anxiety, happiness and confusion,it was really weird to be honest. I felt some sense of belonging because I now knew I wasn't the only one but I also didn't know how to react to the whole thing. I was lost in thought but then Jullian laid his hands softly on my shoulder and then I looked into his eyes, " it's gonna be okay " he whispered into my ears and it just made me feel so much better.
I finally started to mix with the other non humans and got to know them individually. Jullian told me he wanted to have a word with me in private so he took me to his room upstairs and asked me a lot of questions. He told me that the primary aim of the group was to find all the crystals and liberate Dreamland from the curse. He also told me that another of their job was to try to stop all evil works of Constantine and stop him from killing other non humans. Constantine was also after the crystals and from what Jullian said he had hold of one and so did Jullian and the group. This information just changed a lot, I was looking for eight crystals and I had one but so did Jullian and Constantine so now I had to find five of them. But then I realized what serious trouble I was in, three people were looking for the same eight crystals and apparently we all needed them. Constantine needed them to gain more power, Jullian needed it to save Dreamland and I needed it for my very own existence! Obviously Jullian would want to get the crystal I had but I couldn't give him and he couldn't beat it out of me or something cos we were supposed to be on the same side. Everything just felt wrong, I didn't know how to react or what to say, I know Jullian needed it but so did I and this just made me realize that I would never be able to do what Neptune asked because the other jewels were with other people and they would never give it up no matter what. I was going to have my soul taken my Neptune and there was nothing funny or happy about that.
With all this information now I realized that I couldn't tell any other of the non humans that I had one crystal because they would want to take it from me and I couldn't let that happen. It was all too much to take in at once, I no longer had a zeal to survive because at that point my faith was sealed, and for the first time in my life I actually gave up. I told Jullian I could no longer be a part of their so called family and left. I didn't want to be alive at that point, it hurt so bad that I just burst into tears. I wanted to end it myself then, I walked up to a cliff nearby and wanted to jump, I thought about all my good memories I had in my life, the girls, and my mom. It took a whole lot of courage but I did it, I jumped and closed my eyes waiting for my head to crash into the ground but it never happened. When I opened my eyes I saw that lady dressed in black again, " You again?! " I asked her. " Mara, what were you thinking? You can't end it now you still have hope! " she told me. " No, there's no hope! " I said angrily then I explained everything to her. She still told me that there was still a way, she didn't know how but she just knew. She told me that if I wanted to get a better understanding of everything I should meet the person that started it all. " NEPTUNE! " I yelled, I was just realizing how much Neptune had changed my life and to be honest I just wanted to punch her hard in the face! " Don't give up yet, you still have hope my child " the lady said as she magically disappeared. I looked at my watch and it was about 5:50am, I was about to transform back to human but none of that mattered to me at that point, all I wanted to do was find Neptune and ask her some questions!
