That night I was awoken by Mrs. Lydian slamming open the door. I sat up abruptly, my heart racing.

"Erica Rosen! Are you one of them? Are you?" She yelled in my face.

"Am I one of who? Miss, I'm sick of this bullshit! What the fuck are you on about?" I argued back. I

was angry. I wanted answers, and I wanted them now! I could see Mickey in her bed, hidden behind her pillow. Jonny sat on her bed and leaned her head on her shoulder. She must be tired.

"Watch your language Ms. Rosen! Are you part of the Casting Cross?" she replied, some-what calmly.

"Casting Cross? What the hell is that?" These people are so messed up!

"A group of witches and wiccans who reguarly try to kill us! That's who they are! Now, are you one of

them?"

"People try to kill you? Why? Your just ordinary people! Aren't you?" What else could they be? "And no! I'm not one of them! I didn't even know they existed until now! I'm a solitary, no coven, no nothing!"

"I hope you are Ms. Rosen because if you have mislead us, there will be severe punishments for you, my dear." Mrs. Lydian's voice had become calm, but worry still plastered on her face. She sat baside me on the bed, smoothing out the bedspread as she sat.

"Erica, this is no ordinary school. It is bound by magick to stop the Casting Cross from entering. They sometimes work with the... uh...? Sometimes work with others. They still try though."

"But why do they come? I... I don't understand." So many things were swimming through my mind. Why? How is this no ordinary school? How can they use magick if they aren't wiccans or witches? Why do they have so much magick around them? What. Are. They?

"They come because we are no ordinary people, Erica." said Jonny, as she had risen from the bed and came to stand next to Mrs. Lydian

"So if your not ordinary... what are you?" are you even human? I didn't ask out loud, that would've make me seem psychotic. I pushed myself to the edge of the bed, whilst waiting for and answer. Lydian, Jonny and Mickey exchanged looks.

Finally, Mrs. Lydian said, "Erica, you must not tell a soul about us in the outside world. The mortal world. You understand?"

"Mortal world? What are you guys?" I was officially freaked out!

"Erica, we are many different things. Some of us are still human... in ways. Some are not. But none of us harm people, that's why we are here, at St. Bonaventure. Me, I am restricted from saying, but Jonny here, she is fey, and Mickey, well... she's a werewolf." Mrs. Lydian said.

I must be dreaming! "You serious? Your trying to tell me that Jonny, here, is a fey? What ever that is an d Mickey's a werewolf. Your bullshitting me, right?"

"Yes, Erica. I am serious! And fey is another word for faerie! Look, you better belive this, and you must not tell a soul. I will notify that staff and students that you know and you will soon discover that I am right. Although, you may not tell anyone that your are wiccan, or you will be expelled. Got it?" Mrs. Lydian still spoke with a calm voice but had that taste of force in it.

"A faerie. Seriously Jonny? That's cool. Look, Mrs. Lydian, I ain't gonna tell anybody. Too bad they cant know about me being wiccan. That might make me fit in a bit. But whatever, okay. I wont tell anybody, and I swear I'm not with the Casting Cross. Now, may I continue sleeping?" how the fuck am I calm? I should be freaking out! A faerie? A Werewolf? I think I may be going crazy!

"Please continue sleeping. I apologise for waking you up, but this was a serious matter as you can see. I expect to see you all at class, on time, despite tonight's incounter. Goodnight children." And with that, Mrs. Lydian left.

"I'm sorry guys. For everything tonight." I apologised. I must have caused them a lot of worry.

"Hey, don't worry about it. As long as you aren't a part of the Casting Cross, it's all good!" Mickey said.

"I guess. I'm a little annoyed at you, but I guess i'll get over it. Wiccan or not, you're alright kid." Jonny said.

"I'm truly sorry Jonny. A faerie? Like wings and all? I'm sorry, I can't help myself. I have word vomit." I said. Things here might actually end up being pretty cool.

"Yeah, wings and all. But I'm usually invisible. Faeries can't be seen so I wear a glamour so that people can see me. To you, I look like a normal person, but really, I have wings and vines that look like they move across my skin and everything. It's pretty cool." Jonny said. Her voice sounded different, full of singlight when she spoke about herself. It was amazing.

"Awesome! What about you Mickey? How does the werewolf thing work?" I couldn't help but ask.

After a long conversation with Jonny and Mickey, I was left contemplating what they had said. I was amazed at what Jonny and Mickey told me about themselves. Like, not all myths were true about them and stuff. It was truly mind opening. I guess you could say I had been awkened to the supernatural world. Finally, sleep took over and tomorrow shall be a totally different day.
