Damion and Selene tensed up but I held my hand up for them to stop.

"Billy, Henry what are you guys doing here?" I asked calmly. Damion looked at me in shock.

"Ashley could they help us get to place to stay?" Selene asked. I shrugged.

"Billy, Henry do you guys know a place where my friends and I can stay for the night?" I asked them. My eyes hypnotizing them and reaching into their minds. Henry had a tree house in his backyard! "Henry you will let us stay in your tree house," My voice soothing and relaxing. Henry nodded, his eyes glazed over.

"I will let you stay in my tree house," Henry said. I smiled.

"Billy you won't tell Raven or Alexander about seeing us tonight and neither will you Henry," My voice was still soothing and relaxing. "Oh and sorry about this, Billy." I whispered and sunk my fangs into his neck. We wouldn't be bonded and he won't become a vampire. So if you hadn't noticed already, I'm a full vampire and I am a failure as a vampire. I mean what FULL vampire can walk around under the sun and when they bite someone not turn that person! But I have some ability's that others don't. I can control someone's mind and movements, read their minds and erase their memories if needed.

Billy's blood was sweet and I stopped biting him before it was too late. I watched and concentrated on healing the marks on his neck. Soon they were gone, not even a trace of them. Damion picked Billy up and Henry led the way to his tree house. I watched and memorized the combination to get in and out of the tree house and then Damion put both of Henry and Billy into Henry's room. After that Henry passed out and I decided to do the same. We have a tough day tomorrow. School sucks, even for the undead.

Alexander's POV:

"I'm going insane. I am going insane. A mean I saw my younger sister die in my arms that day! How can she be alive now? If Selene and Damion find out, they're gonna cause chaos for Raven. There's nothing I can do. Ashley can go out in the sunlight and I can't. I remember the day she died like it was yesterday. She'd gotten into a huge fight with my mom, saying that she hated being the outcast of our family and that she wished a vampire would stake her right then and there. I tried calming her down, but she wouldn't listen. I watched my younger sister cry her eyes out. Our grandmother came and talked with her. She calmed down a bit, but she still hoped that a vampire hunter would kill her.'

'After ten years I finally understand how she felt. Being an outcast in such a cruel world. She was made fun of because of her pale skin and how she dressed. I remember one time she was three and she scraped her knee. She was crying and she couldn't get up. I could hear her but I couldn't get out of my coffin. Then her crying stopped. I opened my eyes and saw her staring directly over me. The lid was open. She was frowning at me. Tears still streaked her face. She pointed to her knee and asked for me to put a band aid on it. I told her that I would do it later. Every time I would tell her later. But when we were six I said that I would talk to her later and yanked my hand out of hers'.'

''How much longer is later?' Her voice had been so sad, filled with hate and sorrow. I was colder back then. I barely knew my sister. She was up when the sun was and asleep when the sun was down. But even though I didn't know her that well I knew that I loved her. But it was far too late for her to ever love me. 'I hate you Xander! I finally found a vampire hunter and he said that he would kill me! I just had to drink this potion and I would be dead! Everyone in this stupid family will finally be happy! Now that the failure is gone! I hate you Xander!' She yelled and held a bottle up. Grandmother ran into the room and gasped. Ashley drank the potion and then she collapsed to the ground, dead," I explained to Raven. Her eyes filled with sadness.

"No wonder your eyes are always holding back sadness. Alexander, what makes Selene and Damion so different? DO they know that she's a vampire?" Raven asked me. I nodded.

"Selene and Damion are half-vampires. Ashley's a full vampire. She's extremely dangerous. She can control your mind. Read your thoughts, and she can bite someone and not turn them. I think that her organization is going to get back together though," I said, my eyes getting a faraway look in them. "Ashley was the leader of a half-vampire organization and the organization only allows certain half-vampires in them. Like if they have special gifts. Selene and Damion are her two best-friends and they've been in charge of the group but now that she's back they're stronger and smarter. Ashley started the organization when she was three and the other half-vampires were the same age. She's smart and she is amazing at disguising herself. That's why you need to be careful," I warned her. She had a look of awe on her face.

"So she can like infiltrate my school? Is she mad at me or something?" Raven asked, she was getting aggravated.

"I don't know. I wish I was a better brother to her," I sighed.

"Alexander how come you never told me you had a sister? I thought we didn't keep anything from each other!" Raven asked, changing the subject and pointing her finger at me.

"I thought that it would be better for both of us if you didn't know about her. I'm sorry," I apologized. I wanted her to stay home tomorrow and for the year but that wouldn't happen. I tensed up, when I heard a light knock on the door. I got up and Raven gave me an exasperated look.

"Can anyone hear me?" A voice asked from the other side of the door. What was she doing here? I opened the door to find Alana. My cousin. The fourth person who knew my nickname. "Hey Xander. You've grown!" She chirped and entered the house. "Oh and you might want to go to sleep now. The suns about to rise. I'll get Raven back to her house. Remember I'm her guardian now. How's Ash doing? Oh she's not here. Phooey," Alana pouted.

"I thought that you said you would never enter a vampire's house. Since that werewolf turned you into a hybrid. Half vampire and half werewolf," I joked. She hit me on the arm and laughed. Raven came in held my hand tightly.

"Alexander who is she?" Raven asked. I felt tired and Alana saw me stifle a yawn.

"I'm Alana. Xander's cousin. I'll take you home. Here take this it'll give you energy to be about and give you some energy," Alana said and gave Raven a drink. She gulped it down and I saw her energy come back.

"Wow! I feel so refreshed!" She laughed. Alana looped her arm through Ravens and left the house.

Raven's POV:

"So Alana are you a V?" I asked her as soon as we got into my room. She looked at me and laughed.

"No! Well somewhat. I'm a hybrid. An experiment gone wrong. I'm part werewolf and vampire. I was born a vampire but a werewolf bit me so now I'm half and half. It gets lonely sometimes. But anyways. I can hone in on my relatives feelings and when they're stressed I'm stressed so that's why I came here. I'll be protecting you when Xander can't!" She laughed. We walked out of the house and I looked ahead and saw Trevor. I made a gaging noise and Alana gave me a look.

"That's my nemesis," I said and pointed to Trevor. Alana laughed and I laughed with her. She had jet-black hair and dark purple streaks in her hair. Trevor stopped when he saw us and then he turned walked right up to us.

"Hey there Raven. Who's this?" He asked and lifted Alana's chin up.

"I can answer for myself and if you don't get your hand off me I will break your arm and give you another black eye. Now if you'll excuse me Raven and I need to get to school," Alana said and slapped Trevor's hand away. He looked at us in awe as we walked away.

"Wow! You handled him amazingly! You were like a natural!" I gushed to her. She shrugged and she started to blush.

"All the guys back in Romania always hit on me, but the one guy that I want to like me doesn't pay any attention to me. I just love his stormy gray eyes and his sweet smile. The way his platinum blonde hair falls perfectly over his face. The way he looks into my eyes. The way the sun will gleam off his fangs," She gushed, then started to blush.

"He's a vampire?" I asked.

"He's a half vampire. I think that he thinks I'm a freak. I mean look at me!" She gestured her whole body. She looked like a model to me. She saw the confusion on my face and rolled her eyes. She rolled her sleeve up and revealed a bite mark. It looked like a dogs. "That stupid werewolf bit me and now I'm like this. I mean like really what guy would date me!" She pouted then cheered up. I turned around and saw an angry Becky in her truck drive over to us.

"Run!" I yelled and we burst into a run. I started to laugh and so did Alana. We fell onto the sidewalk in front of the school and Becky came over to us. Matt followed behind her. Alana got up and helped me up. I dusted myself off while she did the same. Becky and Matt were wide eyed and kept starring at Alana. I loved her outfit. It was a black dress with black and white safety pins on the right sleeve and she wore black and white striped stalking's. She had a black back pack with bat ears and wings. She wore grayish lipstick and black eyeliner. She totally rocked the gothic look. She looked off into the distance tensed up.

"Hey sorry to leave you guys so suddenly but Raven's supposed to show me around the school! By the way I'm Alana Sterling! Alexander's cousin!" She said and pulled me along. I waved goodbye to Becky and Matt and then I stopped Alana.

"What was that about?" I asked her. She shook her head and pulled me under the bleachers.

"Ashley's attending your school now! Selene and Damion are with her. So whatever you do stay with me the whole day. Don't walk home by yourself. Selene can make people forget things like amnesia and Damion can make people blind or just blur the person's vision. He is also really strong for a half vamp," Alana explained. Her eyes darted back and forth. I looked at her schedule and saw that we had the same schedule.

"Come on! You don't wanna be late your first day, do you?" I asked and pulled her to the entrance. Too bad we didn't make it to the doors when we were stopped by none other than….Trevor.

Ashley's POV:

"Hey! Leave her alone before I give you more than a black eye," I snapped at Trevor. They all turned to look at me. I wasn't going to have this punk mess with my brother's girlfriend. I didn't give a care if he was cold with me when we were younger. I still loved him.

"What the! Hey you're that girl who punched me!" He yelped.

"Yeah and that's a tree. Can you not point out the obvious or are you that dumb?" I asked. My tone was light and joking but also hard and filled with sarcasm. I took a step towards him and he stepped back. Damion backed me up and so did Selene. Selene's looked like a pixie except that she had platinum blonde hair and lavender eyes. She had her hair in a spikey arrangement. She still looked like a girl but she was as strong as a football player. Damion was tall and had hair so black it almost looked blue. His smoky gray eyes could make any girls heart melt. He was well built but not like super muscle man. But he was strong.

"Hey you kids! Get in here! Now!" A teacher yelled. Great this school's full of stupid teachers. I shoved my hands into my cargo pants and my chains clanked as I walked down the hall. My black and red skull shirt wasn't like hugging my body but it wasn't baggy either. I'd put safety pins on the shirt earlier and added some details to the skull. By first period Raven, Alana, Damion, Selene, and I were sitting in the principal's office because we were violating dress code. Time to work my magic.
