I'm back finally! Vacation is great, but I'm happy to update again. Seriously has no one guessed it yet? Well you know what, I don't care what I said before. If you know, shout it out, even if I already told you.
Chapter three
Zoe
I stared at her. What did she just say? Vampire? I remembered a brief lesson on mythical creatures that Boadaii had taught me years ago. Vampires. Werewolves. Shifters. All great powerful beings with impressive dynasties. The Redakai ignored the beings initially until the vampires lost control of themselves, and chose a Redakai member for a meal. The shifters and werewolves tried to kill the vampires. Then they tried to kill each other. Humans got involved and tried to kill everyone. Eventually the Redakai stepped in, killed anything with magic that wasn't a kairu warrior. They went extinct. But as I stared at the pale faces who looked back at me, I could only think "clearly not". I stared at the blonde woman. Rose. She looked at me. She seemed coldhearted, but her eyes gave her true emotions away. Without breaking eye contact, I held my hand to my face. I expected to see pink skin, scarred from beating after beating. Instead I saw pale skin. Perfect and flawless. I opened my mouth but instead of speaking, I caught the girls scent. The pain in my throat flared. I was hungry. But no, I was a vampire. I was thirsty. The big muscular man stepped up and smiled at me.
"I'm Emmet," he said. "Follow me, I'll teach you how to hunt." He dashed off, with impressive speed. I just wanted to get rid of the pain, so I followed him. I watched him stop. He closed his eyes, waiting for something. I heard a tiny crunch. Emmet leaped into the air, teeth barred. A bear appeared, and he tackled it. With strength and speed Emmet drank his meal. Soon he stood in front of me, and the bear dropped to the ground.
"Your turn," he said. "Listen and attack." I closed my eyes, waiting. I heard the crunch again. My head snaped around so fast I would've gotten whiplash had I not been a vampire. I jumped in the air, and found my target. A massive grizzly. I landed on it and bit. It yelled and tried to throw me off. Claws and jaws bit at me, but they felt like nothing. With each second, the bear got weaker. Then, it couldn't fight anymore. I stood up and looked at my handiwork. It's ribs had broken from my hold. A literal bear hug. There was something missing, but the meal was delicious nonetheless.
"Do you feel better?" Emmet asked. I nodded. He smiled at me. "I'll race you," he smirked. He took off without so much as a 'go'. I followed after him, catching up in seconds. I won.
"You should arm wrestle him," Rose said. I smirked. After that bear, I felt as if I could do anything. She stared at me. "Not bad. If they hadn't been beat up before, your clothes may have been salvageable." I stared at what had been my everyday outfit. After being beaten, then thrust into a vampire battle, then wrestling a bear, it was essentially scraps. Rose unzipped her jacket and handed it to me. I put it on and zipped up.
"Come on Zoe, Jasper and Bree are already on their way home. We don't want to be late to the family meeting," Emmet said with a smile. He picked me up and put me on his back. "I don't care how fast you are, Imma give you a ride shorty," he said, ruffling my hair.
