“Felicity!” I screamed as Dave and Harry both managed to knock her unconscious and were begging a vortex spell.
The three boys that were holding me down all turned they’re fat heads to look at me.
“Felicity? Who the hell is Felicity?” asked one
I felt a warm tear trickle down my cheek.
“My best friend. My partner in crime. My rescuer. My sister” I whispered the last two words slowly.
“You mean Felix is Felicity which means Felix is a girl?” asked another dim witted one.
“Yes my dear simpleton, Felix is a girl as am I”
“You’re a girl?” asked the first one
I shook off my wig and nodded. “Yes I am a girl; my name is Aliss not Alastair”
“Oh, well I don’t feel right hurting a girl” said a boy who I think his name was Kurt.
The other two agreed. Then let me up. I was almost at Felicity’s side when Dave finished the vortex spell, and a black vortex sucked Felicity away into a world called Lavaric.
“No!” I screamed at the top of my lungs.
I looked over at Dave and Harry and let the little vampiric demon in me go wild. A little black shadow ball floated in the air before me. I guided it silently up to Dave and I pushed it into his disgusting mouth then I guided it straight to his heart where I started to feed. I was almost half way through killing him when a voice came into my head.
“Aliss do not stoop to this low, you will find your sister and bring her home. But first you have many other journeys to begin. Never lose hope my dear for your hope may save this world.”
I knew that voice from childhood memories. The voice that belonged to a face not totally forgotten but not fully remembered.
I let Dave drop to the ground before I told the demon sphere to exit his body.
I ran to the nearest house and jumped onto its roof.
I began to leap from roof o roof as I made my way home.
After I had gotten home to the Angels and told them everything I sat in my bedroom looking at my white wall. I did not eat nor drink because I didn’t need to.
I didn’t move.
Not even to breath or blink.
APRIL
MAY
JUNE 21st
Today I exited my state and stopped staring at the wall. I blinked, then breathed, then twitched a little.
I soon got up and went down stairs.
“Steph? Char?” I called
I heard some whispers then the Angels came out of the kitchen.
“Aliss?”
“Yeah, it’s me” Steph and Char ran up to me and hugged my legs.
“We’ve missed you so much!” they said in unison
“I know” I whispered.
“It’s only ten minutes into the school day u can still go if you want to.”
I shook my head to that then I went to my room and changed into my slaying gear.
I waited for night to come.
And finally when the sun began to set I stood on my window sill grabbed the gutter of the roof and pulled myself up.
I ran across the roof and leaped for the next one.
I kept going like this until I caught the scent of a vampire and I began the hunt.
The scent kept going across the rooftops until the vampire founds it’s pray.
In the park.
I jumped down off the roof and sprinted to the park.
Sure enough the vampire was there. It was a dude like always. And his pray was Sam.
I stood there thinking; not Sam please not Sam.
I silently ran up to the vampire and raised Hirael above my head.
Sam silently shook his head at me.
I hated not being able to refuse anyone’s dyeing wish.
So I ran back a few yards and screamed.
The vampire turned around and stared at me.
He hissed at me and began to chase after me.
I ran through the streets and passed the houses where people were tucked in bed.
I ran into a dark alleyway and waited. Once the vampire was half way into the alley, I slashed at him.
The only way to kill a vampire is to make sure its brain doesn’t work anymore. The easiest way to ensure that is to shove some thing through its temple. More specifically, shove something sharp and pointy through the damned creature’s head.
I left a long gash across its back I think I cut of a few of his fingers before I got him on the ground.
“Any last words sucker?” I yelled at it.
“Yes, go to hell you little brat”
“I already am going to hell and so are you” I shoved Hirael into his brain then ripped her back out and sheathed her.
Sam.
I ran back to the park, faster than I’d ever run before.
When I got back to the park Sam wasn’t anywhere to be seen.
“Sam!” I yelled repeatedly for two minutes.
Every time I got no answer, I sat down and began to sob. Two people I loved are gone, how many more have to suffer? How many more have to disappear?
After I’d finished grieving I started to catch onto the scent of vampire.
Maybe another vampire had come to finish off the others job?
Maybe I could find Sam if I followed the scent.
First I went back to the Angels.
“I’m leaving.” I said as I burst through the door and up the stairs.
“What?!” yelled Steph
“A vampire attacked Sam tonight and I don’t know where he is, he could be dead or alive, I can’t lose him as well.” I said as I shoved various daggers and blades into my belt and my coat’s many hidden pockets. I grabbed Triana and Hirael and strapped them across my back. The last thing I put on my belt was my mothers whip and I also stuffed the box Fel and I never opened into my most hidden pocket.
I grabbed a picture of my mother from when she was alive and I went into my bathroom.
I cut my hair in the same jagged edged way my mother had and plucked my eyebrows to the same shape as hers. I now looked exactly the same as my mother.
When I walked out into my room Charlotte and Stephanie gasped.
“Lets get ready to mess with people’s brains!” I giggled.
“She even sounds like her mother”
I pulled my mobile from my pocket and dialled Zara’s number
She clicked the phone on and stayed silent as usual.
“Don’t hang up Remy need to listen in.”
I dialled in Remy’s number and started a three way.
“It’s time for training lesson number one.” I said then hung up
Zara and Remy may have been faeries but they knew how to fight. They just needed to know a few things about how to fight a vampire. We met in a warehouse that the Angels owned and we began.
“Now I hope you both know I won’t be taking it easy on you. Never underestimate a vampire. Don’t always expect physical attack for it to try and get to your blood. If it does try to use a shadow attack don’t stay still and keep your mouth closed.” I conjured up a shadow ball in front of them. “This is what a shadow ball looks like. Begin.” I chased them with my shadow ball. They instantly started to run around, they added in flips and cartwheels to make it harder for me to get the ball near them. The shadow ball evaporated and they stopped where they were. I beckoned them in and we stood in a circle. “Expect the unexpected” I threw a punch at Zara’s chest and she stepped back I added in a kick to her shin which she avoided by jumping over it. I heard Remy disturb the air behind me. Dropped into a crouch, stuck my leg out straight and spun around, but my leg hit nothing but air because Remy was already airborne. I watched her as she glided through the air, her copper coloured hair trailed behind her, I felt her hands on my shoulders as she pushed off and glided again she did all this with out using her wings. She landed with a soft thud three metres from where I was crouched.
“I think we’re ready for weapons.”
Smiles spread across their faces I went to a small office at the back of the warehouse. I grabbed Mirelli and Elezira, Matthew and Peters swords from when they were slayers.
“These blades are Mirelli and Elezira they are basic and light but don’t get attached to them you won’t be using them after this lesson.” Remy chose Elezira, Zara chose Mirelli and I chose Hirael. When I unsheathed Hirael we began.
We timed in kicks and sometimes punches in between sword clashes.
I kicked Zara in the chest and she crumpled to the ground, she stayed there completely still with her black covering her face, Remy stepped over to Zara, who slashed at Remy’s legs. Remy jumped back and Mirelli’s blade missed her by centimetres. “You can stop now” I said and the girls both stopped and began to giggle.
I sheathed Hirael and held my hands out for Elezira and Mirelli. When I returned them back to the office I grabbed twelve imagination stones.
I gave four to Zara, four to Remy and kept four for myself.
They examined the silver and blue stones in their hands.
“Okay so you take your first imagination stone,” Both the set three stones on the ground and held onto one. “This will be your jewellery stone, but before you turn this stone into jewellery I need to tell you what animal your fighting is most like. Remy fights like a monkey. With a lot of acrobatic skills and swift movements, Zara fights like a fox, with a lot of tricks she is both cunning and fast, and I fight like a snake with a lot of fluid motions and quick strikes.” I made a fist around my stone and imagined a silver snake. The stone took the image from my find and transformed itself, the snake slithered up my arm and stopped halfway between my elbow and wrist then coiled itself around my arm three times then stuck its tail in its mouth and went solid. “Zara you are to imagine a fox, it can be any colour and it can be any type of jewellery you like.” Zara made a fist around her stone and a few moments later and tiny fox ran down her hand and formed a silver ring around her middle finger. She admired her ring for a few moments then began to bounce up and down happily. “Remy your go!” she giggled
Remy made a fist and a few moments afterwards a tiny silver monkey ran up her arm and wrapped its tail around her neck and held the end of it in one hand.
“Well it seems like you both got the idea of imagination stones so you can use the other three to make weapons.”
I unsheathed Hirael and Triana. I grabbed another imagination stone and imagined a silver katana on the blade were cherry blossoms made of rose quartz, then I imagined the hilt which looked like a twisted tree trunk which was also made of rose quartz. Before I released the stone I quickly imagined the hilt to be grip like so it didn’t slip in my hand. When I released the stone the same sword I imagined was in my hand. It was the same just more beautiful. I took Hirael’s old sheath from my back (it was black and also decorate with cherry blossoms) and sheathed the new blade which I had named Nephira. I grabbed another imagination stone and thought of a new blade. This blade was also a katana I imagined swirls and curls filling up the blade I decided I’d make them out of ruby and the same with the hilt, I also imagined the same grip on the hilt as I had with Nephira, I named this one Israik. I grabbed my last stone and I imagined a glass ball this size of twenty cent piece. I imagined silver wrapping itself around the ball. I channelled all my emotions into the ball. Anger, hate, sadness, happiness, love, calmness, stress, every last emotion I’d ever felt went into the small glass ball, I imagined that every emotion had a colour, anger was red, hate was black, sadness was blue, happiness was yellow, love was pink, calmness was green, stress was grey, just to add one last thing I imagined that whoever it touched (but me) would be overwhelmed with whatever feeling I was feeling at the time and would become helpless and confused. Once I had finished making my own weapons I looked to see what the girls had made.
Remy had a bow made out of silver n her hands and a quiver with an endless supply of arrows on her back, she also had a golden whip that looked like a snake, one the end of the whip was a snake head. Its golden fangs sparkled with venom.
Zara had two throwing disks that had multiple spikes on the edges, she slid something onto her belt which I soon recognised as a taser.
“Zara is that a taser?” I asked
“Well, yes in a way but instead of shooting electricity it shoots sunshine, and in case we run into a werewolf I added in a gun mode which has an endless supply of silver bullets.”
I laughed then walked out the door and to my car. Apparently according to the law I was too young to drive…but that never stopped me. I stood back and admired my car, The Borg as I called it was a black 2009 model Lamborghini Gallardo, did I mention it was black I don’t know if I did but any I will tell you again it’s sleek and black. I loved The Borg; you would to if you saw her.
“Hey baby mummy missed you” I cooed as I stroked its bonnet.
I opened the door and slid in.
“Shotgun!” Zara yelled.
I inserted the key into the ignition and listened to her purr to life.
Zara slid in beside me and Remy jumped into the back.
The small computer screen that was in the middle of my steering wheel (Peter put that in as a birthday gift) flashed up. On the screen was a black invitation and in silver writing was:
Starry Night & Full Moon the magnificent Faeries
Invites you to attend the midnight ball
Dress code: anything black, shiny or sparkly
Bring: a good attitude, sexy moves and your dancing shoes
Signed: StarryNight & FullMoon
A smile spread across my face.
“Anyone up for a party?” I said as I took a sharp left and headed toward the Angel’s house again.
When we got there Peter, Matthew, Steph and Char we’re out. Eat out night.
We ran to my room and sorted through my wardrobe. I had loads of black, sparkly and shiny things in my wardrobe.
Zara wore a black sequined dress that ended 20 centimetres above her knees with a pair of dangerous looking high heeled boots that I bought 4 years ago for some weird party and lots of chunky silver necklaces.
Remy wore black short shorts, a pair of black wedges and a black a silver cropped top. She had black sparkly paint swirls over her bare stomach.
I wore a black corset and punk tutu with a pair of fishnets and ballet flats.
Once we were dressed with started on hair and make up, Zara had black eye liner swirls coming from the edge of her eyes and blood red lipstick, Remy went with typical thick eyeliner and shimmery black eye shadow with the same blood red lipstick as Zara, I hade Cleopatra eyes with black stick on jewels on my top eyelids that followed the black line I .had made. We all kept our hair down, Remy and I beaded some of Zara’s hair with silver beads and Remy and I got black beads.
Before we left I decorated Zara and Remy’s wings with black spray paint and silver glitter
We all climbed back into The Borg and drove to Starry and Full’s house house, their house was protected by glamour so humans wouldn’t see or hear it, unless they knew what they were looking for.
Starry and Full were greeting people at his gate. Their eyes were hidden behind a mask’s of black sparkle paint, Starry wore a tight black muscles emphasized his chest muscles and Full wore a silver singlet, their wings had been spray painted black and the veins in their wings were painted with silver glitter, like Remy’s and Zara’s. We parked the car across the street and got out. We were the last guests to arrive, when I reached the gate Starry held his arms out in welcome.
“Starry. Full. How have you both been?”
“Perfectly well and yourself?” answered Full.
“Not well at all, Felicity has been taken to Lavaric and one of my other best friends is missing too.” I said sombrely
Starry gasped. “That is terrible we hope our party can lighten your mood.”
“They always do, Oh I almost forgot. Starry, Full I would like you both to meet Zara Heart and Remy Gold.” I gestured at both girls.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you” said Remy
Zara nodded in agreement. Full walked over to Remy and took her by the hand and lead her inside. Starry walked over to Zara kissed her on both cheeks and lead her in all her blushing glory inside too. I slowly walked in and stood in the darkest corner and watched everyone dance. I caught a boy looking at me. I couldn’t see much of his face because he was masked like Starry and Full. The boy started to walk towards me. In a few seconds he was asking for me to dance with him.
“I’m not really the dancing type.” I told him
“Good because I’m not either, I thought I’d try even if you did though.”
I laughed at that and begun to fiddle with my bell necklace.
“Nervous?” he asked
“No!” I lied but I knew he saw through it.
“Really? I was beginning to think you were” he chuckled
I liked his chuckle it reminded me of Sam. I felt a knot in the bottom of my stomach.
I missed Sam so much.
“Your car’s getting stolen.” The boy whispered in my ear.
“Jesus not The Borg!” I hissed
The boy grabbed onto my hand and we ran outside in time to see my car take off. I started to hiss in anger.
“Come on we’ll run.” He laced our fingers together and we took off apparently he was full vampire and could run faster than me and I had trouble keeping up. He picked me up and stuck me on his back. I held on loosely so I didn’t choke him. He ran faster than I had ever done everything around us was just a blur. He caught up to The Borg quickly I pulled out my remote control for it (another present from Peter) and I made it pull over.
