Punk Angel and Shy Demon

Chapter 2

It took a while to get to Clare's home. The whole time she held my hand. It was a little uncomfortable and strange for me but I let her do it anyways. For some weird reason I felt like I had my very own guardian angel. Don't say I'm a guardian angel please , Clare spoke up. I was very surprised that Clare said that. We then suddenly stop. Clare let go of my hand,turned to me and said, Yes I read minds, yes I just read yours, yes I'm an angle, and It's wrong to stereotype people based on their wings and yes I'm punk. I felt very bad and apologetic. I hadn't even known that she was an angel till she said it, but I still felt guilty. Stereotypes were very common for monster. The most common ones were about angles and demons. Angles were supposed to always be happy, and good. They were the ones that were the least discriminated against. Angles according to the stereotypes would always wear dresses that were white and perfect for twirling in. They would never be caught in a punk outfit. While according to stereotype demons were supposed to be the definition of evil and would never be caught doing something good or wearing a dress. Demons were one of the most discriminated monsters and since I had demon wings everyone stayed away from me or hurt me physically. Apparently my guilt showed or something because Claire sighed and said, look I know what it's like to be brought up by humans, especially for kids since that adoption kid monster program only gives monster children to very abusive parents. I also ran away and I promise that I will never hurt you ok? I just nodded my head. For the rest of the trip we walked in complete silence. After a while we finally got to a cabin in the woods. It had gotten dark but I could see that the cabin looked like a two story house. The lights in one of the cabins rooms was still on. Clare paused for a second, she then turned to me and said, there are only three of us, not including me. Well I guess I should say four because of you. Anyways they aren't mean or anything so please if you want to stay try to calm yourself. We all went through a rough time and we understand what you went through, so we don't expect you to do anything that we ask you to right now, ok? I nod my head. Clare turns back around, opens the door and we walk in. The room we entered seemed to be a living room. It was the room the lights were on, even though no one was in it. It felt nice and cozy. Clare closed the door behind us and said make yourself at home. She then left to who knows where, so I decided to explore this room first. There was a couch, a rug with a coffee table on top, and a fireplace. Their was also a desk and a chair in one of the corners. The walls had a few pictures on it. One of the pictures I saw had four people in it. I was actually surprised that I could recognize two of them instead of just one or none. Their was Clare posing in a punk style way ,with the clothes she had on today, next to her was a girl who wore a black shirt, jeans and gloves. She also had one brown eye and one red. This girl was my all time favorite Monstuber and musician Sara lovestrung. Sara was right next to Clare posing the same way. The two others I couldn't figure out. One was a tall boy wearing black glasses, some black gauges, regular jeans and a black shirt. He was standing next to another boy. The boy was a little shorter, had red hair that looked dyed, a plaid shirt, and black jeans on. They both were just standing smiling. All of a sudden I heard, Who the hell are you being yelled from behind me. Before I could turn around the person ran up to me and pinned me to the wall. My arm was held against my back tightly so I couldn't get away. I'll ask again the person said,who are you. The person seemed to be getting agitated by the second. I was pretty scared, but to my surprise was able to answer. I-I'm K-Kat. Ok then Kat the person said in a tone that said I don't believe you, What the hell are you doing here. Just then someone walked in. I couldn't see who it was but when they talked I realized who it was. Jack let go of Kat right this instant, Clare demanded. Jack did as he was told and I was able to turn around to see the guy that had been pinning me. He was wearing black glasses, and jeans. Jack turned to face Clare and said what is she doing here. I brought her here, she's one of us, What was it called again to the humans, oh yeah monsters Clare replied being very sassy. She came closer to us. Why did you bring her to our safe place Jack said with a sigh. You know I have my reasons she replied irritated by all of the questions. Clare then pulled me away from him and said You will treat her like family from now on and that goes for you guys too. That's when I noticed that the other boy ,from the picture,and Sara Lovestrung were standing in one of the two doorways. The doorway they were standing in seemed to lead to a set of stairs. My heart raced once I saw Sara. She was more beautiful in person than on monstube and I had a major crush on her. I guess I was blushing or she could read minds, which I hoped wasn't true because Sara smiled at that very moment. If I wasn't blushing before I was now. Suddenly, I was pulled onto the couch by Clare and the other three came over to me. They all stood in front of me. I guess now's a good time as any to introduce everyone. You know me, but just in case you forgot, once again my names Clare. The tall boy who was pinning you to a wall is named Jack. He isn't a bad guy he's just super protective of us. Sara coughed twice and in between them I swear I heard her say me. I'm am not Jack said, but the others apparently disagreed and laughed probably knowing that Clare or at least Sara was right. Then Sara Lovestrung spoke up, well anyway you might already know me from my Monstube channel, Sara Lovestrung but my names Sara Locks and these two boys are my brothers. Sara paused, and a moment later said The one that hasn't introduced himself is named John and he usually doesn't talk much. I guess he's just shy that way. John smiled at me. I'm Kat I said already knowing that at least Clare, depending on how long they been their, had already said my name. Sara smiled at me and sat down next to me. The two boys left the room and Clare had pulled up a chair to the couch and sat down. So what monster are you if you don't mind me asking Sara asked trying not to upset me. I think I'm a demon I said not sure myself. Do you have wings because that can help determine if you are an angel or a demon at the very least. Oh yeah Clare did you get an angle feel or something from her and that's why you brought her here. I looked confused and before I could ask, Clare spoke up. First of all, it's called a sense and second I felt something familiar from her, she's definitely not an angle though. I didn't feel that from her but the feeling I got was something I haven't felt for a very long time. I just can't put my finger on it. I knew what Clare had said I felt it when I first saw her but I'm not ready to admit it yet. I then spoke up, I have gray bat wings if that helps. Sara giggled very cutely and said ok definitely a demon and before you ask the clique thing as aren't you scared of me, I'm not. She smiled at me which warmed my heart. I-if you don't mind me asking, Sara finished my sentence for me. what monster am I? Well I'm what people call a half blood dragon or a half dragon, my older brothers are as well. Cool, I said. Anyways it's getting late we should head to bed said Clare, I'll show you to our spare room. Ok I said. I got up and followed her to the set of stairs I had seen before. The stairs lead up to the second floor and that's where we went. Once we were upstairs Clare walked me to a nearby door and opened it. She then said you can stay here. I went in and turned on the light. Before Clare left she said one more thing. I'll come get you tomorrow morning and show you around. Clare looked like she wanted to say more but decided not to. instead Clare left and closed the door. I got ready for bed. I fell asleep peaceful for the first time in my life. The life I could remember at least.
