Chapter 1: A New School Year

Lacy POV:

"Come on Nick! We have to get to school!" It was the first day of school at Adkins County High School. "I'm coming sis! Gosh, I didn't know that u were that into school." My brother told me. "At least I get good grades and can pass my classes." "I pass my classes." He told me. "Just barely." I told him. He rolled his eyes at me and we went outside and got into my brothers black sports car and drove to school. When we got there, we drove into the parking lot and found our usual spot. Right next to our parking space, there was a group of girls hanging by a white convertible. My brother winked at them and then whistled. "God, you couldn't wait to start checking out girls until after you're out of sight of your sister?" I asked. He just rolled his eyes and parked the car. I got out and started walking to the entrance of the school. My brother caught up to me and walked into the school with me. My brother is 18 and is a senior this year. He has dirty blonde hair, green eyes and tan skin, like me and my other 2 sisters. I am 16 and am going into my junior year. I have strawberry blonde hair with blue eyes. We walked into the school and started walking to our lockers. My brother found some of his friends and waved to me and went off with them. I found my locker and started getting my things for first period. When all of a sudden, I hear my friend Lindsey shout; "LACY!" I turn around and Lindsey is running down the hall, towards me. "LINDSEY! HI!" She came over and we hugged each other and started talking about our summer breaks and anything new. Lindsey was a very outgoing person. She has bleach blonde hair that ends to her back and big blue eyes. "Hey what do you have first period?" she asked me. "Um, I have biology first." She groaned. "I have Spanish first, but hey, you have Nicole in your class." Nicole and Lindsey were the closest friends I have ever had. We were all tan, and we grew up together and we have always gone to school together. When we got into high school, other girls would try to break our friendship apart by saying stuff about us that wasn't true, but we always went to each other to ask if they ever said that and of course they say no and we just go back to our normal days and pretend like we never heard the rumor. I said bye to Lindsey and walked into first period to find Nicole sitting at a desk in the middle of the classroom. Nicole had dark brown hair and brown eyes. When she saw me, she got out of her desk, and ran over to me to give me a huge hug. "Oh my God Lacy, I missed you so much this summer." She told me. "But you were in Rome the whole summer, there had to be stuff to keep your mind off of what boring me was doing back at home." I said sarcastically. She rolled her eyes at me and went to take a seat next to her. First period went by and the bell rang and Nicole and I got out of our seats and went into the hallway. All of a sudden the intercom came on. "All students please report to the Gym." Nicole and I looked at each other with confused expressions and started walking towards the Gym. On the way, we found Lindsey and I spotted my brother. He was with all of his friends and looked just as confused as we were. When we got into the Gym, our principle told us to get into lines by how old we were. Nicole, Lindsey and I were all 16 so we just stayed together. The 14 and 15 year olds were in the back and the 17 and 18 year olds were in the front. Since we were 16, we were in the middle of everyone. Once we were all in lines, the principle went into a room and came out with 4 men and 2 women. The women looked like they were in their late 20s. The men all looked like they were in their 30s except for one. He looked to be around my age. He had blonde hair, blue eyes, and he was tan, like me. Something about him gave me a tingling feeling inside of me. I had never felt that in my life before. They walked to the center of the Gym, and sat down on the bleachers, all spaced out. They all looked like they were judging us. I felt a twinge of anger flood through me for know reason at all. Calm down Lac, It might not even be that important. I told myself. I finally calmed down right when they started talking to us. "You all were all gathered here today because of a very big problem that we have." I felt a little nervous when one of the men said this. "We are here today because we have a war at our hands. A war all of you don't know about. What I'm about to tell you, you probably thought you could only read about them in books. You probably never thought that they could be real creatures." Now I was scared for what he was going to tell us. I looked over at Lindsey to see that she looked just as nervous as I was. The next line that came out of his mouth was probably that most unbelievable thing I have ever heard in my life. "We are vampires and we are going to be training you and turning you into vampires in the next year." Then he showed us his fangs.
