CHAPTER TWO: THE BLOOD CURSE

Caleb pulled up in front of the old Putnam Manor. He turned the ignition off and got out slowly looking at the house.

He entered the house and ran up the steps. "Dad?" He asked quietly facing the chair's back.

Caleb looked at his father. James Danvers looked around the age of 80. It was hard to believe that he was still alive, but it was times like this Caleb was really glad he's alive.

"Dad? I need your help." Caleb said loud enough just for him to hear, he didn't want Gorman to over hear.

James blinked once showing his son that he heard him.

"Dad, something's going on with Reid.' Caleb paused trying to figure out how to explain it. 'Five days ago it was Reid's eighteenth birthday, the year of his ascension. Dad he didn't ascend, well not that we can tell. Also whenever he sneezes he blows things up and then if he sneezes again it goes back together. What's going on?"

James raised his hand and pointed towards a book in his bookshelf across from him.

Caleb walked over to the bookshelf and pulled out a very old book that's cover was a black leather. On the cover of it was The Garwin Curse engraved on a silver plaque that was nailed to the leather.

"Thanks dad." Caleb kissed him on the cheek and ran to his car.

"Holy crap!" Pogue said entering Reid's room. "What the hell happened in here?"

Pogue said stepping over shattered pieces of Reid's dresser.

"I have no freaking clue!" Reid said.

AH-CHOO. Pogue jumped out of the way of the pieces that were now flying together.

"He's been doing this for about 20 minutes." Tyler said stifling a laugh.

"It's not funny." Reid yelled throwing a pillow.

"Okay…well, besides you sneezing and blowing things up how are you?" Pogue asked laughing.

"Horrible." Reid said.

"Why? Shouldn't you be happy? You know that you've ascended right?" Pogue asked eyeing his friend. Reid turned his head the other way and let out a loud 'hmph.'

"It's seems that he hasn't ascended. Or not that we can tell of." Tyler said.

"Wait, I don't understand." Pogue said his eyebrows burrowing in confusion.

"What he means is 'I feel like fucking crap and I can't stop sneezing'? Not exactly feelings you get when you've ascended is it?" Reid asked sharply.

"No. It isn't. Where's Caleb?" Pogue asked backing away from the explosive Reid.

"He went to see what's going on." Tyler said also backing away.

Caleb entered his house and ran up the stairs to his room.

"Caleb, wel…" Caleb's mother realized that she was speaking to air as he had already run upstairs. "I wonder why he's in a hurry."

When Caleb reached his room he sat down on his bed and stared at the book. He opened up the front cover, the first page was hand written. Caleb skimmed through the book; all of it seemed to be hand written. He laid back on his pillow and began to read.

"Holy crap." Caleb said as he finished. He grabbed his car keys and ran out of the house. Before he could reach the car his mother stopped him.

"Whoa, what's the hurry?" She asked.

"Oh, nothing I just need to talk to Reid's mom." Caleb said throwing the book in his back seat.

"You know don't you?" She said her eyes widening.

"Know what?"

"Reid, me and Pogue have to go." Tyler said.

"Go?" Reid asked holding his nose.

"Yeah. We're going shopping for our school supplies." Pogue said.

"Fine." Reid grunted. "Go ahead and go."

Tyler groaned, "Reid, don't be an ass. We'd stay if we didn't have to get this shopping done."

"Fine." Reid said quietly, he sighed. "I'll talk to you two later."

The two boys left leaving Reid all to himself, alone in his quiet…

AH-CHOO. "Crap! This is not fair! How the hell am I supposed to watch T.V. now?" Reid yelled looked at the black pieces on the floor that were once his flat screen T.V.

"Oh. Now I don't sneeze anymore!" He said frustrated looking for another pillow to throw.

"Mom. Are you telling me you knew about the blood curse?" Caleb asked.

"Yes. Just what do you know about it yourself Caleb?" She asked eyeing him.

The page that he had read earlier came to mind:

All the children that are born to those of the Garwin name will be passed down with a curse. During the time those born with the Garwin name are supposed to 'ascend' they will feel the affects of the curse. They will not get the higher of their powers on the day they ascend. They will go through a time a suffering before they do. Many things will happen before they can get their full powers. Only when they've suffered through 14 days they will get their full powers.

"I know about the Garwin Curse." Caleb said. "Mom. Is it true?" When he asked this another page he had read came to mind:

History of the curse,

The Garwin curse has been around for centuries. It originated during the time of the forbidden era. During the forbidden era the son Matthew Danvers (at the time was one of the Sons of Ipswich) became aggravated with Jonathan Garwin (another Son of Ipswich). The two had been feuding since they were born. One day Jonathan did something unspeakable, so unspeakable that no ones know what he did. Well, he angered the Young Matthew so much that Matthew muttered a curse. Since the young Jonathan had not reached ascension yet that's what Matthew decided to curse him and his name. From this day forward no one has been able to reverse the curse, especially since there was no mention of such a curse in the Book of Damnation. All anybody knows is that it is a Blood Curse.

"What is true?" His mother asked.

"Is it true the curse originated because of our family?" Caleb asked.

"Yes, and don't think your father didn't try to reverse it. He just had to let it happen. I wouldn't worry about Reid so much." She smiled.

"Uh huh. I didn't say I was worried." Caleb said getting the car and driving off.

He wasn't worried. Nope, not at all. He wanted the blonde to suffer. Maybe now he'd stop being…being him.

"Now I'm pissed." Reid said still staring at his broken T.V.
