When I woke up, I was laying in a bed. I was in a very familiar room. I turned my head. I saw Rosemary laying in a different bed on the other side of the room. Then I realized where I was at. I was at home. I slid out of bed, not waking up Rosemary. I crept over to the door and out of the room. I walked downstairs. I saw Alexia, Elizabeth, Seth and Jake sitting at the table whispering to each other.
"Hey." I said softly. Their head jerked up to meet my eyes. "How long have you been down here?" Jake asked. "Not long. I just came down the stairs." I answered. He sighed with relief. I practically skipped over to the fridge, opened it, and pulled out a bottle of water. They all watched my closely. I gracefully danced over to the table and took on seat the table top. "So, why are you guys so happy I didn't hear any of your conversation?" I asked, smiling brightly. They fell silent. I elbowed Seth, jokingly. "Tell me!" I said. "No." Elizabeth replied, harshly. "Well, someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning." I snapped.
She growled. "Alright. Don't tell me, but don't think you can beat me in this little game your playing. After all, little sister's can eavesdrop." I said, mischievously. I slid off the table top and walked back to the top of the steps. I started to continue back to my room, but hearing my older siblings whispering stopped me. I stood still at the top step, completely out of sight. Then I heard,
"Do you think Amy remembers what she is?…." The whisper was defiantly Jake's.
"She has to remember…." That voice was defiantly Elizabeth's.
Then I felt a tug on my pants. I looked down and Rosemary was watching me. "Are you listening in on them?" Her voice of bells questioned. I put my hand over her mouth and quickly took her to our room. Once in our room, I took my hand of her mouth. "Were you listening to them?" She questioned again. "Yes, I was. I had to." I answered her. "You shouldn't have." She said. "You know what the were talking about." I spoke quickly. "Yes, I do." She replied simply. "Then tell me." I commanded. "I cannot." She answered.
I stood up and brushed out of the room and walked down the steps. I came to the table. I rested my hands on the table, Alexia, Jake, Elizabeth and Seth looked at me. "What?" They asked. "What am I?" I demanded. "You're a vampire, witch, and shape shifter." Jake replied. My jaw dropped, "What kind of sick joke is this?!?!" I exploded. "We aren't joking." Elizabeth said. I reeled back to punch her, Seth grabbed my arm. "LET GO!" I shouted at the top of my lungs while trying to pull away. He laughed. I kneed him in the stomach. I reeled back with my other arm and got a punch in at Elizabeth's stomach. Jake stood up and grabbed my other arm. I kicked him in the chest. I twisted my wrist back to where it would only hurt him and not me. I heard a cracking noise and he let go of my arm.
"Calm down!" Alexia shouted, with her head hidden in her hands. "You guys are so mean!" I shouted. Seth let go of me. I backed away. I glanced behind me and saw the front door. Laying on a table by the door was my purse. I turned and dashed for my purse. I flung the door open and raced out into the night. I ran and ran. I never heard a single footstep behind me. After who knows how long of running, I finally stopped and sat down on the ground, with my head in my hands. "Why did they do that to me?" I asked myself. Because their jerks, I thought.
I opened my pursed and pulled out my cell phone. I called the only person, I knew that would help me. It rang three times.
"Hello?" I heard grandma's sweet voice answer.
"Grandma, I need your help." I said.
"What is it, My dear Rose." She asked.
"Alexia, Elizabeth, Jake, and Seth played this horrible joke on me, right after I got home from being kidnapped. They said I was a vampire, witch and a shape shifter. I got so mad I ran out. What should I do? I know I overreacted and all, but still." I said more calmly than I would have expected.
"My Rose, they weren't lying to you." Grandma said.
"No you too!" I groaned.
"Go back home. I will be there and I will explain everything." She said softly, then I heard the line go dead. I slid the phone back into my purse. I stood up slowly and started walking home. I felt a chill go down my spine, then I heard the crackling of leaves behind me, as if someone were walking towards me. I froze.
