" She is called the Mother Guardian and is also said that she is a dragon witch, which is a witch and dragon. No one knows who she is. Well, the guardians protected Springfield for a long time , even though the barrier did most of the work. Like I said, the guardian mark comes with powers. One them got greedy and wanted more power and because of his carelessness the barrier was broken and bad things started again. The guardians couldn't do much, they were all killed. Everyone waited for the witch but she never came but another witch came. She put up the barrier but she couldn't bring back the guardian mark."
" If she couldn't bring it back, how is it here now?" Skylar asked.
" No one controls the guardian mark, it hid in a box. I am a guardian keeper but I don't hold the box, I only watch it and know what it's doing and where it goes. The responsibility has been passed down my family for generations, that was what the second witch did."
" Yes!!!" Skylar exclaimed " The box, how can we forget. The inscription on the wooden box is the same one on our arm."
" So do you know why mine is different?" Ruby asked showing him her arm.
He took her arm and looked at it.
" This isn't the normal guardian mark." he looked confused. " and you were in the same room with them and got your mark the same time?"
Ruby nodded.
"I don't know but I'll find out, it shouldn't be to different from the rest." he assured her.
She looked disappointed.
There was silence for awhile then Tyler asked " You said that the guardian mark comes with powers, what does that mean?"
" Well, you are humans but when you get the guardian mark you become supernatural. It's like being reborn, that's why the witch who created is called the Mother Guardian."
" What kind of supernatural creatures?"
" Vampire, werewolves, witches, coyotes and so much more. You should start noticing it. Ruby, am not so sure if yours. Now you should all go home it's getting dark."
" Is there any way we can cover this up, my mom is not really a fan of tattoos" Skylar said
" You don't need to worry about that no one can see it, unless they are supernatural. You guys should get some rest we have a lot of work ahead of us."
" Like what?"
" First of all, who broke the barrier?" he said
**************************************
" Dr A said that the barrier is very old and strong witch, so whoever broke it must be someone from the past and a very strong witch, an ordinary witch could never have done it." Nessa told Noah and Tyler as the sat down in the lounge at school.
" How old is the barrier?" Tyler asked.
" Very old." Noah replied
" Good morning guys" Ruby greeted, kisses Tyler and sat down beside him.
" Good morning." They responded
" What are you guys babbling about?" Skylar asked taking her sit beside Noah and Nessa . They all faced each other.
" oh you know, the usual, the barrier" Noah replied her jokingly
" Has Dr A said anything about your mark?" Nessa asked Ruby who in turn shurgged.
" Well, in other news, how is everyone feeling, in relation to the power stuff." Skylar asked in a low tone.
" I don't know but is feeling bloated a sign cause that's how I feel now........Okay Ruby what is wrong, cause you've looking at me like I stole your candy." Noah asked Ruby.
Ruby kept staring at him tilting her head " Have your ears always been this long and did you dye your hair?"
" What!?" Noah took his phone and checked his face." oh s**t".
**********************************
Dr Aiden let out a breathe while looking at Noah.
" So what am I?" Noah asked
" My closet guess, hobgoblin. "
" What are they?" Noah asked
" They are creatures with super fast speed, they move so quickly that it may look like they are teleporting." Dr A told him
" Like a vampire?"
" Kind of like the same speed but a hobgoblin is faster. They have green hair and long ears, that is their physical appearance. You will have to find a way to hid the long ears cause that everyone can see. Start wearing a cap or beanie better for you that way."
" Meanwhile, there are no deaths yet so I think we still have time to figure out what monster is in town." He continues
" Deaths?" Skylar asked surprised.
He nodded
" How are you sure that there is a monster here?" Nessa asked
" Like I said before Springfield is a bacon. There is a force, power, that draws the monsters here and without the barrier there is nothing stopping them coming in."
********************************
Skylar woke up suddenly. She puts on her lamp and sits on her bed for a while before getting up and going downstairs. She takes a glass of water while looking at the wall clock. 12 o'clock. She dropped the cup took her car keys and jacket and left the house.
She drove and stopped in the woods. She got out of her car, hugged her jacket closer and began walking deeper into the woods. She got to a slope with a river downside. She heard a baby crying down the slope, as she tries to bend to check she tripped on something causing her to tumble down the slope.
She whines on the ground as she sits up, taking out her phone from her jacket pocket and using it's flashlight. She turned to her right, her light landed on the dead body laying beside her and she let out a deafening scream.
Dr Aiden squatted checking the body.
" Did a monster do that to him?" Skylar asked standing in Ruby's arms still shaking.
" Probably" he replied standing up to face Skylar. " What were you doing here at midnight Skylar?"
" I don't know. All I know is I woke up and went for a drive and the next thing am waking up beside a dead man with his tummy cut open and his internal organs missing."
" Well let's all go home and tomorrow after school we can figure out what is this." Dr A said to them.
" Are we just going to leave the body here?" Tyler asked him
" No I'll call the cops"
" And tell them what?" Tyler asked again.
" I have my ways" he reassured them.
" I think you should check this place again. Something's still out there." Skylar said
"We will".
