Jackson and Kylie silently walked down the street. They didn't talk to each other for almost five minutes till Jackson broke the silent.
"Uhhh, you will be in school tomorrow huh?"
Kylie turned her head to stare at him.
"Sure I will, you?"
He nodded and lowered his gaze.
"If you have any problem with any subject, I'll be glad to help" he added.
"Sure. I really love all the subject except chemistry, that's why I read that a lot"
Jackson smiled.
"That's my favorite"
Kylie blushed and suddenly stopped walking.
Jackson also stopped and stared at her.
"Why did you stop?" He asked.
"I'm home already. See you tomorrow" she said and walked into her house.
Jackson watched her as she entered into the house. He smirked and walked away.
.
.
Jackson got home and saw Cindy. She was waiting for him.
"What's up sister?" He asked and threw himself to the chair.
Cindy folded her arms and squeezed her face. She was angry that her brother took her walkhome partner.
"Why did you leave with Kylie?" She asked.
"Leave with Kylie? I didn't, she left with me" he lied.
"Really? Chris told me everything so you don't need to lie. I'm suspecting you Jackson"
Cindy slowly moved closer to him.
"What did I do this time?" He rolled his eyes.
"You like Kylie and don't want to spill it because Madison will kill her huh?"
"Why should I be scared of Madison?" He asked raising his head to stare at his annoying sister.
"So you are ignoring the fact that you like Kylie huh?" She teased.
Jackson grabbed his bag and stood up.
"I'll be in my room. Look out for the demigod" he said and swiftly ran into the room.
Cindy rolled her eyes and went to the room.

As Kylie prepared to sleep, Sarah walked into the room to give her a goodnight kiss before she sleep.
Kylie covered her legs waiting for her mother to say anything. Her mother sat beside her touching her hair slowly.
"How was school today?" Sarah asked.
Kylie sighed.
"It was fine mom. History class was a little bit interesting today"
"Hmm, tell me more about it" Sarah replied, showing more interest.
"We talked about myth and I asked a question if witches and vampires are real. My teacher said it was a myth but one of my classmate was not supportive of her reply"
Sarah slowly diverted her gaze away from Kylie. She had lot of things running in her mind.
"Are there vampires around?" She thought.
"Mom?" Kylie called out.
Sarah snapped out of her thoughts and faced Kylie.
"You should go to sleep now. It's getting late. Just remember what I told you. Be yourself, be bold and never get angry at anyone"
"Yes Mom, you've told me that more than a million times. I know dad will be proud of me wherever he is" Kylie said.
Sarah nodded and left the room.
Moon climbed the bed and laid with Kylie.
.
.
Sarah walked out of the room and entered her room.
She slowly sat on the bed thinking about what Kylie told her.
"I should really confirm if this place is safe for Kylie"
.
.
Cindy walked into the class with Lilly and saw Kylie placing her head on the table.
"Hey Kylie" they called out.
Kylie slowly raised her head. She was feeling pale and weak. She didn't know why she wasn't feeling herself since she woke up.
"Hey Cindy" she replied in a weak voice. They noticed it and quickly went to sit close to her.
"Are you alright Kylie?" Lilly asked.
Kylie placed her palm on her forehead and nodded.
"I guess"
Cindy checked for herself and saw that her temperature was boiling hot.
"You are sick Kylie, you should go to the nurse"
Jackson heard that word from the door. He quickly rushed into the classroom and faced Kylie.
"Are you sick Kylie? I should take you home"
Madison frowned.
"Why should you take her home? She can walk home"
Jackson rolled his eyes and grabbed Kylie's arm.
"Let's go"
Kylie followed him slowly. Everyone in the class were stunned.
"She hasn't even last up to two weeks in this school and she's stealing my boyfriend"
"He isn't your boyfriend Madison!!"Cindy yelled and went out of the class with Lilly.
Madison groaned and threw herself to the chair thinking about what just happened.
"I should do something really fast"
"Where's Kylie? We both have a challenge going on" Chris announced as he walked into the class.
Madison smirked.
"I guess Chris is the answer I've been looking for"
.
.
As Jackson and Kylie slowly walked up the empty street, Kylie felt a little dizzy.
She almost fell but Jackson was there to help her.
"Careful" he said almost in a whisper as he helped her up.
Kylie blinked repeatedly and lowered her gaze.
She finally got to her house.
She stopped by the door and turned to see Jackson behind.
"Aren't you going to come in?" She asked.
"No, I have to get back to school. Just take care of yourself" he said.
"Thank you" she said and walked towards the door.
She realized that she didn't take her bag along with her.
"Can you...." She stopped talking. She didn't see any sign of Jackson anywhere.
She walked to the street and looked left and right.
"That's weird, where did he go?" She murmured and went into the house.
.
.
Jackson was sighted sitting alone during lunch.
Chris walked to him and close to him.
"Hey dude!"
Jackson didn't reply, he was lost in thought.
Chris waved his hand in front of his face to notice him.
Jackson snapped back to reality and stared at his friend, wondering what he was doing here.
"Why are you thinking about Kylie?!" Chris asked.
"I'm not!" He replied and started eating his meal.
"You can lie but your mind can't"
"I've told you to stop reading my mind" Jackson almost yelled.
"Fine, I'm sorry. I'll leave now, I have to meet up with Madison" Chris said and stood up.
Jackson squeezed his face and stared at Chris.
"Why?"
"I don't know. Maybe, we have a plan. Catch up with you later dude!" Chris tapped his shoulder and left.
Jackson sighed and continued thinking. He had no idea why he is thinking about Kylie.

Sarah was seen secretly walking into the woods. She kept on turning back to make sure that no one was following her.
He got in front of a rock and changed some words.
The rock slowly divided and she walked through it.
It was a beautiful decoration inside the witches chamber. It was crazy outside but much better inside. It felt like a palace.
Different witches and wizards could be seen walking helter skelter.
She walked straight to the head of witches clan. Some of the witches stared at her like she was some stranger.
"Oh my world, look who is here. My long lost friend!" Elina said slowly as she walked down the stairs to hug Sarah.
Sarah smiled and hugged her in return. They disengaged from the hug and went to Elina's sleeping chamber.
"What brings you here Sarah?" Elina asked as she served her hot coffee.
"It's a long story Elina. I know it's been ages since I left the clan but I did it for the good of everyone" Sarah said almost in a whisper.
Elina sat close to her when she said the seriousness in her voice.
"Tell me Sarah, what happened?"
"I.. I gave birth to a Demigod"
"What?!! What were you thinking? How did you mate with a vampire? Our worse enemy!"
"Bring your voice down Elina! It's not my fault, it's a curse. A generational curse. I don't know why I became a victim" Sarah lowered her gaze.
Elina sighed and touched her shoulders.
"It's okay. It's not your fault. Why did you come here?"
"I wanted to know if vampires still exist"
Elina burst out into laughter.
"I have a reply to your answer. Follow me!" She said.
Sarah followed her. They went to the dungeon.
It was darker and silent.
"You've come to see me huh?"
They heard a voice as they walked closer to the dead end.
They saw the light beaming from afar.
"Who was that?" Sarah asked.
Elina stared at her.
"It's a vampire that we've kept here for twenty years"
"What?" She exclaimed.
They stood in front of him and stared at his bloody eyes and sweaty body. He was looking dirty and ugly.
"Long time, no see Sarah!"
Sarah shot her eyes wide opened. It was her husband's brother.
