Walking in the underground house i was bombarded by questions from my team but i ignored them and made my way to sensei's office, my fathers presence and words lingered in my head as i try to figure if what happened really happened

"Crystal...?" said sensei looking at me confused

"are you ok? why are you crying?" he asked and i looked up at him tears slowly falling from my face

"my father" i said and he ran over to me hugging me

"oh dear, dont cry" he said trying to call me down but it was no use i was balling my eyes out

"m-my f-father -c-came to me" i said letting out another sob he held me at arms reach and looked at me confused

"what?" i raised my arm showing him the bracelet and he looked at it

"crystal when you touched it did it glow?" he asked in an urgent tone and i nod he looked at me in the eyes

"oh dear god no" he said and i kept crying not knowing what the hell is going on but i couldnt stop to think of it too, i just couldnt think about anything other than my father was alive and is a vampire, sensei held me again but this time tighter

"its ok" he said, he kept telling me it was ok but at the back of my mind i knew it wasnt going to be ok, i cried till i passed out in his arms.

Sensei's P.O.V

She has past out in my arms i carried her to her room but i was met halfway by her team wondering what happened but i told them to leave her alone till she woke up, i went back to my office feeling lost i have raised her as my own since her parents died, i love her as my own how am i suppose to tell her she has to learn to love the blood sucker, to sacrifice her human life to become one and end the old war? how can i sacrifice her?! i cant do it, i know its selfish but i cant do it! i threw my stuff on the floor, flipped my table and screamed feeling the tears threatening to come out, then the door burst open to reveal her team

"whats going on?"

"are you ok?"

"woah" i turned away from them not wanting them to see me in my weak stage

"sensei...?" said one of the twins i heard shuffling and the door closed

"sensei" i heard he again

"the others left so we could talk" she said i dont usually do this but i really need to talk to someone so i turned around to see anna standing there crystal's second in command

"whats wrong?" she asked her voice a mixed of worry and confusion

"it her...shes the one" i said looking at her with teary eyes

"but i dont know if i can sit and watch her sacrifice herself" i said

"who's the one? and one for what?" she asked

"Crystal is the savior" she looked at me now shocked

"how?"

"the bracelet of the chosen" i said and she gasped

"how?" i sat on my chair and sighed

"her father and dont ask how i dont know" i said before she could ask me how

"what are we going to do?" she asked

"i dont know...i cant let her sacrifice herself" i said frustrated

"its not your place to say, i think she has the right to know and the right to make her own decision" she said softly

"but i cant let it happen" i said getting frustrated

"do you want her to hate you?" she said i looked to her

"what you mean?"

"she will hate you, knowing that she had a chance to end this war but your selfishness kept her from it....i know how it feels i dont like the idea one bit, but we need to put our wants and need aside and think of everyone other who are stuck in this underground not seeing the sun not knowing what its like out there" she said i looked to the ground and thought about what she said and she made sense

"to save a thousand let one go" i said referring to my fathers last words that has been taking me my whole life to figure out and now i finally understood it

"exactly..."she said and i nod agreeing with her it hurts to my heart but i its one or a thousand.
