Hey guys. This is my first time writing a fanfic so ehhmm... it would most likely be crappy. However, please, do review and tell let me know whether I should keep writing or not (: I love L.J. Smith books and Night World is my fave. Anyways, I really have no clue what to do so please help? Any advice or tips, oh and ideas would be great! Thank you.

In addition, since I see this in all stories, I do not own Night World.

The Announcement

Thursday Night~

It was a calm, peaceful evening at the Circle Daybreak mansion. Everyone was quietly talking to one another, and eating their delicious dinner prepared by Lady Hannah, Mary-Lynette, and Maggie.

James's POV~

"Huh, it is sooo quiet tonight. Where are the arguments, the craziness, the FOOD FIGHT?" He thought to himself. Sighing, he turns to his beautiful soulmate, Poppy North to start a conversation about music.

James: "So, have you heard the song 'Just the Way You Are' yet?"

Poppy: "Ehh... I haven't really had time to listen to the radio in the lately, Jamie. What with all the missions, feeding, trying to study, everything!" she frowned.

James: "Ohh, well remind me later. I think you would like it." He smiled at her.

Ash's POV~

"Hmm... Mary-Lynette looks sad. Wonder why?"

Ash: "Hey baby, what's wrong?" his voice was filled with concern and worry.

Mare: "Nothing; I just miss my family and your sisters, that's all." she gave a reassuring smile.

Ash: "Well I bet we can arrange something for the weekend then" he flashed a smile.

Mare: "OMG! Really?" she exclaimed.

Ash: "Yep!" making the 'P' pop. "I figured it would be fun to drive up north. Plus, I kinda miss my dear sisters too, ya know." he kissed her hand. "And we need some time alone." he grinned and winked at his soulmate.

Regular POV~

Thea and Gillian were talking about the spell book they found at a store and were planning to do some magic later that night.

David, Galen, Eric, and Delos were engaged in a heated debate about global warming and pollution.

Rashel, Jez, and Keller were talking about training and combat and were planning to take karate lessons.

Quinn and Morgead were arguing on who's better in Black Ops. In addition, are planning to settle it after dinner.

Maggie was done eating and was on the phone with her brother, Miles.

Lady Hanna and Lord Thierry were just waiting for the right time to make the announcement. They were stating at each other, speaking only through their minds.

"I will sooo win that bet!" Hanna sent to her soulmate, "and it will prove that I am always right!"

"Whatever. Just you wait, Hannah. I will win this time", he shot at her telepathically.

They ate in silence and were waiting 'til desserts arrive; picking up on some of the conversations.

"…I really need a new iPod…"

"…What car would we use?..."

"…okay so I'll make a list of ingredients to buy…"

"…polar bears are dying because of stupid factories…"

"…I can kick ass in karate. I already took taekwondo…"

"…dude, you don't stand a chance against me!..."

"…yes, I'll take care. You too. I miss you…"

Thierry: "Okay, so Hannah and I have made a bet." He said as he stood up. She believes that girls can beat guys at most things, are smarter, and stronger."

Guys: "BOOO!"

Thierry: "Anyway, we are going to settle this tomorrow. We are going to have a little field day to see who's better."

~ Everyone seemed excited~

Hannah: "Oh, and here's the thing: each challenge a team wins, they get to agree on something the loosing team would have to do. It could be anything as long as it is legal. And the team with most wins at the end get either a trip to Hawaii for the girls or a trip to Fiji for the guys.

"HELL YEAH!" someone shouted.

Thierry: "Okay, okay. So we will play music at 9 a.m. tomorrow to wake everyone up. Then you will have 30 mins to get ready and be downstairs by the time buzzer goes off. Team with most people sitting down, NOT STANDING, wins the first challenge of the day."

Hannah: "Everyone go to bed early. We've got a long day." she smirked and stood up to get the dessert.
