Quinn Moyer taped her pen on top of her notepad repeatedly as she wiggled her leg in a circular motion. She felt this uncontrollable urge to jump up and run around like a made person instead of just sitting in a lecture where even her own teacher didn't seem too interested in. She glanced over to the clock on the wall as it read six more minutes until the class would end. Quinn suddenly felt a nudge hit her roughly as her friend Anna glared pointedly at the pen that she had in her hands. She let out a huff and leaned back into her chair as she decided to play with her tie instead. Quinn had tried her best in paying attention but found it useless to pay attention to Mr. Johnson's boring lecture.

Anna leaned over to her, "Aren't you going to take notes?"

Quinn rolled her eyes, "Can't. I've been wanting this three day weekend for a while now. Having him as our last class though is a pain in the ass"

"Our final is next week" Anna reminded her.

"I will study when I get the time to. Honestly, you're just as bad as my mother" Quinn teased.

"You need to keep your grades up, Quinn" Anna whispered.

"And I will, with your help" Quinn patted Anna's leg, making the woman roll her eyes.

Mr. Johnson then announced, "That's it for today"

Quinn quickly grabbed her messenger bag off from the floor and started to shove everything into the small pouch. She glanced over to her friend and winked at her as Anna shook her head at Quinn's easy going behavior. Anna had swimming practice after this class so Quinn just got up and left along with the rest of the crowd as Anna walked with another swim member. Quinn nearly flew out of the building as she was welcomed with the grey clouds hanging around the campus. The school girl pulled out a beanie and placed it over her head in hopes of keeping her head and ears warm from the cold.

All around her, people were standing around and talking amongst each other as they each mentioned a party that was happening over the break. Quinn couldn't help but feel their energy as nearly everyone went to the end of the year bonfire. She couldn't help but shiver as she realized how good a fire would feel right now. Thankfully, Quinn's apartment was only three blocks away from the school.

"Quinn!" a girl yelled out and waved at her.

"See you on Monday, Delaina!" Quinn smiled to the other girl.

"Swing by Nicky's sometime this weekend!" Delaina shouted out, "You know I practically live there now"

"Quinn" a voice came from in front of her, making the girl stop short in her tracks.

The man had silver hair but looked young for his age, almost in his 40's. Quinn quickly nodded her head down in respect as the man accepted it. This man was named, Brian Paquin, and he was the leader of the demon pack that was in this district. Quinn suddenly felt nervous as she only seen him from afar at gatherings but he never once approached her.

Quinn suddenly fidgeted with her skirt as she tried her best to stand up as tall as she could and remember what her mother had said if he or his family approached her. Just sadly, she couldn't really remember but she would say exactly so she just shivered in the cold. Brian waved his arm out to take a walk with her in which she stiffly accepted.

Quinn glanced up to the man who seemed to be walking her over to her apartment. What was he doing here in Ipswich?

Did something happen to her family while she was away?

"What brings you in town?" Quinn asked in a high voice.

"A job" Brain mentioned, "For you, I mean. You are turning 18 at the end of this month, aren't you?"

"Umm... Yes"

"And you know the traditions of our clan" Brain continued, "You need to prove your worth to be apart of our clan"

"I am aware of that" Quinn nervously let out, "I have an assignment already. What is it?"

"Let's go to your apartment and we will discuss the means of your initiation" Brian propped open the door and waited for her to step inside.

"I'm ready for anything" Quinn said with as much courage as she could muster but almost felt like she was trembling from the inside out, "I promise I won't disappoint. Can you hint something to me?"

"Your mother did say that you were eager about proving your worth. I'm already very impressed" Brian smiled, "I hope your assignment will be just as promising. That's why I brought this job on especially for you"

"And I will gladly accept it" Quinn nodded as she led her leader over to her apartment door, wondering what kind of assignment she was meant to be given.
