Chapter I: Secrets and tests.

High school is starting tomorrow; I'll be going to Beacon Hills high school with my brother Scott. I was so nervous because I am going into high school a year younger than most of the kids, I passed both the sixth and seventh grade standardized tests with perfect scores in all categories. I don't excel at my social life at school though, I'm that person that you know, but never hang out with. I always tend to stay away from the crowd and make my own path to any destination that I wanted to go. Now I am being moved up to ninth grade by the school district during the second semester. So not only am I going to stand out because I going to be a 'transfer student', but I'm going to be the brother of the captain of the lacrosse team and then I am going to be compared to him. Not that I don't love him he's a great and wonderful brother, I just want to be me though I want to be Caleb McCall not the shadow of Scott McCall.

I was writing in my journal, I love to write because I can express myself in any way that I want to be me, to be stuck in my own little world where my dreams can come true even if it's just on paper.

CHASH, I heard the window slam close in Scott's room. I got up and tediously walked down the hall and my head peeked into Scott's doorway to see him coming back through the doorway with someone with him. I opened the door slightly and quietly or I thought Scott head turned to me.

"Caleb what are you doing up so late?" Scott whispered.

"I would like to ask you the same question, why were you out so late Scott, you know mother doesn't like it that you're out this late?"

"Yes I know Caleb, why aren't you in bed yet?"

"Who is that?" I asked looking at the new appearance of the person next to Scott. He was a little bit taller than Scott, but in the darkness of the room I could only see a silhouette.

"Oh this is Isaac and he'll be staying for the night."

"So you bring home a guy, who's soaking wet like you at two in the morning, because there is nothing suspicious about that." Scott growled at me with a glow of red, no that's not right I must be really tired his eyes are light brown.

"Never mind just don't make too much noise." and I left the room with Isaac laughing a little. My room isn't as big as Scott's but I don't care really as long as it can fit what I need I'll be fine. I walked over to my bed to fall in, 'I wonder why Scott is lying to me, and I mean yeah he doesn't need to answer my question, but it still doesn't give him a right to lie especially to me. I mean what is there to lie about if he brought a guy home for the night I fine with that, honestly I don't care. I'm just wondering why he is so different, the late nights, the secrecy, and the lying. I feel like the connection with him is slowly falling apart, but I guess maybe that's how life is supposed to happen. I don't know maybe I'm holding onto that connection to hard, if Scott is different than he is and I can't stop him, but maybe just maybe I still want that connection with him one more time even for a moment… like before.' What am I doing talking to myself I need go to sleep. I snuggled myself deeper into my mattress as I let my wariness take over and my conscious begins to fade.

I rubbed my eye open with my sweater the sound of water trickling down could be heard from my room. Laying down staring into nothing really, just the blue ceiling as the sun light started to shine through my window, the water stopped. I got up to use the bathroom I got my gray slipper on because honestly nobody likes their skin touching the cold morning wood, I got past Scott's room and saw Isaac lying on top of the bed. Yep I think my suspicions were correct, but before I could've done anything.

"Whatever you're thinking, it's not it." I turned around to be face to face with brown eyes staring accusingly at me, Scott. Shit I didn't even hear him open the door or walk down the hall I never recalled him being this quiet before, another change.

"Well if you could just be honest with me then I wouldn't be making any weird assumptions about you or what you do, but since you are always answering my questions with your own questions. I don't know what is happening your being so secretive about everything and I feel like you are drifting away from me." I sighed back after my small outburst. Then I realized that Scott wasn't wearing anything, but a towel wrapped around his waist another thing that has changed, not like I mind, but it was still another change.

"Caleb, look at me." Scott got down to my level, yeah another thing that changed not like I control his height, but anyway Scott held me firmly by my shoulders. "You are my little brother, you were always my brother and you will always be. I know I be distanced from both you and mom, but I have a lot on my mind that you won't understand, but you have to trust me. I'll always be your brother and I'll be there for you O.K." I nodded my head, I hate when he does stuff like this because it makes my hatred of his antics go back to zero, I just have to believe that in the end he'll be the person that I would like him to be. I got into the bathroom to brush my teeth I looked around the room and saw some marks against the wall, but I ignored it I need to get to school. I was walking by his room once more the door wasn't fully closed by I heard their hush whispering.

"Scott when are you going to tell them, your brother is obviously on to you."

"I know Isaac, but I don't want to drag him into my problems."

"But you're lying to him and you told me how much he hates being lied to."

"But what if it's for his good Isaac, do you really think that if I did tell him that he'll accept it. It's better if he doesn't know it for his own benefit."

"Scott hear me out, when did you decide what's best for him." I walked slowly away from the door I know eavesdropping is a bad habit to build especially after I told Scott that I'll trust him, but what is the secret. What is Scott dealing with that he thinks that I wouldn't understand? I was going over their conversation over in my head; I got to write this down. I got to my room to scribble it down and went out with my school bag over my shoulders,

"Scott we should leave soon." I rushed down stairs where my lunch was packed by my mom and waited on the staircase.

"Caleb can you get my lacrosse stuff from the living room and then I'll drive you to school. I put my stuff on the steps and walked the living room and found his duffel bag on the couch, I picked up the bag and one of his gloves fell. I went down to pick it up, but there were holes by the tips of it.

"Scott you might want to mend the tips of the gloves." I gave the bag to Scott and followed him out to his car. I sat in the back while Isaac took the passenger side and Scott took the wheel. The drive to the school was nerve wracking, I'm about to start my high school year.

"Hey you guys do you have any clues you want to give to me on how to survive high school."

"There isn't much, just follow the rules and get good grade" Isaac simply replied.

"No, I mean like socially how to get along with people. Hey Isaac how did you meet my brother." I know this is a mean question but I'm a curious boy who wants to find answers.

"The first that I remembered was that I met asked him on advice at the vet."

"What type of advice could Scott give you, no offense Scott."

"Well I came to him," Isaac looked at Scott, but Scout only shrugged his head, "For advice on whether I should run away or not, but I decided not to." The car halted to a stopped a stop and I got out of the car. School is about to start, the bell rung for us to go to lunch. School was officially boring I really thought it would've been hard. I went to the library for lunch and got online on a school computer. The first thing I wanted to check was the recent unexplainable cases that the police had. I know it's horrible to hack into police files, but who doesn't like a good challenge now and there. I looked at some of the photos and description most of them didn't give and clues on anything. Then I realized something most of the pictures had this weird scratch marks. The scratches looked like an animal, but in a jail cell they wouldn't have locked up an animal. At the school buses it's highly doubtful for an animal to get past the fence and plus if it did it probably go through the fence but there were no damage on the fences that I could see in the pictures. I turned off the computer when the librarian came by.

"Hi I'm new here do you guys have any books on anything supernatural stuff?"

"That's an interesting topic, down that aisle." I don't know why, but I feel like my assumption is probably dumb, no actually it's stupid. Why would there be anything about supernatural beings, those things are made up by those who are delusional or crazy. I went to the window and saw Scout practicing lacrosse jersey number 11, I couldn't see who he's playing against but I must say it's cool to see him weave around people like water flowing down a stream. I watched for a little while, then went to my journal might as well start my homework.

"She said 'this month's project was about love' who did I love the most, well my brother he is always caring, always has my best interest in mind I think. Mm" Then someone shoved into me and my book fell from my hand and out the window, I could go out the window but that would look strange so I walked out the building and then back to the window to see Scott there with my book.

"Thanks, but how did you know this was mine if you were over there."

"Oh I saw you drop it, you need to be more careful." I had something working in my mind, something to see if I can figure him out.

"Yeah, I slipped on my stuff and dropped my book out the window" I chuckled a little to myself in my fake clumsiness.

"Yeah I saw that well, be careful dude got to get back to practice though bye." Why does he keep on lying to me, if he really saw me then he'll know that I got shoved. I went back to the section that the librarian pointed to me. I started digging into the book; I was so busy reading that I didn't even realize that the bell was ringing. O.K. if my theory is correct then I might be able to see beyond what I know. I had so many things going on in my mind that I couldn't even pay attention what was happening in class and I was too busy writing on my journal.

"Mr. McCall would you like to pay attention to the class and solve this problem." I looked at the math problem. "See if you were paying attention in my class you'll know that this is the problem most of the kids got wrong on last week's quiz."

"Really, X equals negative two, simplified by four steps and you get two times X plus three in parentheses equal negative X, distribute the property then isolate X on its own then divide that by three and you get your answer X equals negative two." The teacher just stared at me as well as the rest of the class. "If you want to check if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure I'm correct." Mr. Raymond went back to the board and solved the problem and as it turns out I was correct.

"You solved that in your head," I nodded yes, "Well I'm impressed not only was it challenge question, but you did it so quickly and in your mind." You looked at me like a prized animal, while the rest of the class either looked surprised or glared at me. I returned back to my journal to continue what I was originally doing. As school got out I got to the lacrosse field and waited until I saw Scott.

"Scott, I'm over here." I called him; "Hey Scott" He turned his head until he saw me and strolled over to me it didn't take long because he is pretty fast.

"Hey how was your first day of school."

"Well my day is going well; I passed my first obstacle, getting through the day." Scott laughed at my comment

"Well that's good to hear."

"So since I survived my first day of high school can you treat me for a snack." after some arguing with me be stubborn and holding my ground.

"No, we aren't getting a snack Caleb" Moments later we were walking to the cafe that I wanted to try while dragging Scott with me. The cafe was around six blocks from here. We were talking about our days at school how I was able to solve the math problem in my head. He grabbed my head and ruffled up my hair. Now my hair was all over the place brown pieces of hair point in all direction, does he even know how long it takes to get my hair like this, so as the annoying little brother I was I punched him. We were fighting back and forth with people staring at us, but it didn't matter we were having fun. I squinted my eyes and pointed at something.

"I can't see that, I think I need glasses. Scott what street is that?" pointing down the block.

"Don't worry we are on track, the cafe on the next block." I looked up to see that he was correct. Mm, the bell rang a little as we walked in. I waited in lining looking up and down the menu to see what they had to offer.

"What are you getting?" I asked leaning back against a table.

"I don't know maybe something with meat in it."

"Well I'm getting a sausage, egg, cheese bagel on Asiago bagel." I turned around and ordered, "and you're paying, thanks bro." I chuckled as I heard him growl as he pulled out his wallet out of his back pocket. Once he sat down I started talking again.

"So I was at the library at lunch and I found an interesting book on supernatural world."

"I thought you didn't believe in any of that"

"Well I am learning how to expand my horizons. Anyways do you believe in the supernatural?"

"No not really?" Scott responded rubbing the back of his neck.

"Well the most interesting creature I found was the werewolf." Scott almost spit out his drink.

"Why is that the most interesting?" He staggered to ask.

"Well because of the transformation, how the creature can appear to be human but at night can become a creature of the night. It said that they had super hearing, extreme sight and a very sensitive smell. Did you know this?"

"No I did not Caleb, so what got you into the supernatural anyways." He asked leaning his chin on his hand while taking a sip of his drink.

"Well I think it's because it got me thinking of the unknown, and I love the unknown how it works and what I can discover."

"So you want to be a werewolf?" he blankly stated.

"Well, maybe it would be cool to have powers that are beyond what is physically capable by humans, but I think there would be to many changes. Wouldn't you think" I asked back. We talked on our way back to Scott's car about my intruding ideas of werewolves, but little did he know that I had other thoughts going through my mind, my head was going through all the possible outcomes of my theory and so far it's going as planned. We got to his car and I slid into the passenger seat.

"So is Isaac coming over again?"

"No, not that I know of why?"

"Nothing" As I got myself strapped.

"Shit I spilled your drink" His head spun so quickly, that he didn't realize that I had my phone ready, Snap. "Ha, your face, omg look how mad you look." Scott lightly punched my shoulder

"That's not funny Caleb" Scott turned the key and you could hear the engine starting, we pulled back from the parking spot and sped our way back home. The ride was nice and smooth I stared out the window as the breeze flew through my hair, the evening sun glared on my face, the sound of the street eased through my mind. We pulled up to the house as our mother was pulling out of the driveway.

"Sorry boys, but I have another late shift so please make yourself dinner or eat out; I left some money on the table." I walked upstairs to my room and changed into sweat pants because they are so much more comfortable. I opened my window sprayed a little febreze to air out my room.

"Caleb can stop spraying that stuff."

"Sorry." I went to my desk and cleared it took my journal out and checked off the final box on my list, so my theory didn't take the path I thought it would, but now I kind of nervous. How do I tell Scott what I found out?
