i's POV
I ran my hand over my pale blonde hair, smiling at myself in the mirror. I looked absolutely stunning, as I always had, of course, but now it was almost more pronounced. My hair was placed half up in a messy bun, while the rest of my curly blonde hair fanned out around my shoulders. Everything was perfectly in place, everything was set. I was standing in front of my mirror at home, looking at myself. I was ready at five, which was an unimaginable feet for me, but I had to help set everything up. The ball would be taking place at the Met. The Committee thought that that was fitting, seeing as it would help to jumpstart the memories of the young Blue Bloods. A lot of their history was recorded there. I quickly lifted up the sleek silver skirt of my dress, and slipped on my Givenchy sort of wrap shoes. Strings of silver wrapped around my ankle and toes in the shoes. I smiled at them, thinking about my recent shopping trip. She loved these shoes. They even matched the updated Grecian style of my dress. My dress was gathered at my chest and supported by a single silver bead-embroidered strap. I smiled, and quickly placed my white and crystal beaded mask.
"Jack!" I called, searching for my jewelry. I clasped a pearl and diamond choker on my neck, and then searched through my drawer for my sapphire and diamond bracelet. It hardly matched the outfit, but I always wore it. It was "passed down" in my family, or more stored near my blood. I'd had it every life cycle. But suddenly it was gone. I grunted. It couldn't be missing. It couldn't be. This ball needed to go correctly. I sighed and threw on a matching pearl and diamond bracelet and yelled, "Jack, be out of your room in five seconds!" I heard a grunt, which I guessed was my answer that he would be. Soon I heard his door creak open and his muted footsteps against the carpet. I turned to the window. The sun was setting now, which was unusual, seeing as it was only five thirty, and it was a mid-September day. With only bits of light shining through my drawn curtains, which were a very light shade of blue, it looked like a blue twilight. I opened my curtains, and looked out at the sunset. The sky was almost completely blue and purple, while only a bit of light shone on the sky now. It was miraculous…and odd. Sunsets didn't look like that, they were supposed to have pink in them. Something strange was going on, something strange—
"Mimi!" Jack said, startling me. I had been too caught up in my thoughts. I turned towards him, drawing the curtains as I did. I padded a long my white carpet, my heel catching the threads of its cropped hair. "You were yelling at me to go, now it's my turn," Jack said, his face turning light and happy. I smiled at his lame joke, picked up my small silver clutch that rested on my white bureau.
We proceeded to the town car, where he opened the door for me, and I slid into the other side. I wanted to talk to Jack, I did, but I needed to think. A blue twilight? No, not possible. There was supposed to be pink and light blue in a sunset, there had to be a balance of both. One could not be without the other. They were at opposite ends of the spectrum…
I inhaled sharply. Jack turned his head to me to check if I was all right. I simply nodded, looking out the town car window at the now dark night. There was an unbalance now, wasn't there? Someone here that shouldn't be? Like the blood…I thought, and then realized that Jack had been listening to me the whole time.
"Did you hear all of that?" I asked, feeling slightly violated. Jack had been listening when he shouldn't have been.
Jack nodded. "Well, I was minding my own business when I caught onto the blue twilight thing. What do you mean?" He asked, his sweet face turning to mine. I frowned for a second. I really didn't know what I was talking about, but I had a suspicion.
"I think the Blood is causing a disturbance here. I think he's bringing something here he shouldn't be," I said, looking at Jack. Usually I wasn't one to think of these things, but I knew something was wrong here. And I wanted to fight for the Blue Bloods. Long ago, I could've been a Silver Blood. But I chose to stay a Blue Blood, and they were the people I fought for. I knew the Blood would ruin things. That inconsiderate imbecile. Everywhere they go they completely ruin things.
"That could be. Were opposites. We cannot be near each other. Our two species are like magnets toward each other." I nodded, knowing the truth of his words. We were created that way. How did the Blood species even arrive on earth? I shook my head. If he came tonight…i shivered. If any of the Bloods came tonight, everything would be ruined. Everything.
