I waved and walked to the front gate. I was going to walk with Claire and Ethan to work today.
I looked around by no one was waiting for me at the gate. I thought to myself that I might just be early getting to the gate. So I decided to wait a few mins before I headed out. Twenty minutes later everyone had left school except the ones that had after school clubs to go to. Still there was no sign of Claire or Ethan at all. I finally decided to call Claire. After a couple rings Claire answered the phone.
"Hello, Claire?" I asked into the phone.
"Hey, Onyx. What's up?" Claire replied with a lot of wind affecting the phone.
"Ummm, we were supposed to walk to work together remember? Where are you? You are not here at the gate and I am waiting for you. What are you doing that is causing so much wind? There isn't a breeze today." I stated coldly.
"Oh, ummm, Sorry Onyx. I got excited about my new way to get around. I can fly there now. I don't have wings but I can control the elements and can use the wind to fly through the air and light adjust so it bends and hids my flight. Being a magicborn is pretty cool. Where are you at right now?" Claire asked still windy.
"I am still at the gate, I will see you there soon. I am a vampire so I can run there really fast. I wish I could fly like you. Maybe I can can if I can do something with my other abilities that I haven't been able to do yet." I said with jealousy in my voice.
"What other abilities can you do?"Claire asked intrigued.
"Honestly I haven't a clue yet, but its worth looking into. We have a year plus to figure out what all we can do. So I am hopeful." I replied.
"OK, we will see you there then." Claire said as she hung up the phone without an actual good bye.
"Good bye to you to Claire." I mumbled to the dead line of my cell phone.
I looked around and didn't see anyone around so I took off running full speed to head to work. I didn't want to be the last one there this time. I turned the first corner and had to stop right away. Damien was there waiting from me.
"Damien, want to race to work? Fastest person buys the other one a meal tomorrow?" I asked.
"Hello to you too. Also I am so in on this race, I am a wolf so I should be faster. I want a nice meal when I win." Damien said in a cocky voice.
"You wish, lets go in 3 ok?" I replied back.
"3" we said in unison
"2"
"1"
"GO!!!"
We both took off runing as fast as we could. I was keeping up with him right away. Smiling I waved at him like this was no big deal. I decided to focus on my run and looked ahead and decided to try to go faster. Vampires should be faster then a human werewolf. We are always vampires. Werewolves have to shift to be able to hunt vampires and catch them. I knew I could win this race. I wasn't even winded yet. Focusing even more on how I was running I moved my weight to the balls of my feet and started picking my feet up jsut a bit more. I pushed myself so I could travel as fast as I could. I angled myself to have less wind existence and pushed myself to go faster then I have even gone before. I left Damien in the dust literally. My speed was so fast that anything on the ground got picked up and tossed in the air as I was zooming passed it.
This feeling was both wonderful and also terrifying. I arrived at work and tried to stop but I was having a problem stopping. I braced myself for the impact with the wall but it never came. I found arms wrapping around me stopping me in place. I tried to turn around but I was held tight in place. The strength was more then I was able to break away from and I was really trying to get free.
"Calm down, before you hurt me. I can't let you go until you are calm or I will find myself hurt. So deep breaths Onyx." Damien said. "This really feels good though having you in my arms finally. You have no idea how much I have wished to hug you since I met you."
"Ok, I am calm, please let me go Damien. I will hug you properly afterwards. This is starting to get a bit awkward." I spoke up.
Giggling was heard from above and behind me. Damien let me go and jumped away from me like I was the black plague. Smiling I turned around and looked up.
"Hello Claire, I can't see you but I know that giggle. So come on down and uncloak already." I replied annoyed.
"Sorry I was watching the race and couldn't help but make sure I couldnt be seen while the end was going on. Looks like you won Onyx but you couldn't stop. That was funny. I almost couldn't tell it was you but the streak was dark blue and the other streak was whiteish. I remembered that Damien was wearing white and you dark blue. Your speeds are impressive but I get to fly and be invisible. I think I beat you in abilities. Hahaha!!!" Claire said.
"Claire, you are not funny here. You ruined their fun because you couldn't hold back your laugh and stop your laughing. What was not very nice. It was nice to see them finally make the first step towards being a couple. They are too shy to make the first move. It appears Damien did make the first move under the guise of preventing her from hitting the wall of the building." Ethan spoke up out of nowhere.
"You both suck and yet I am also happy to see you both. It was starting to get weird. Oh and Damien, I won. I am faster then you!!! Hahaha!!!" I said outloud.
"OK, what do you want for your meal tomorrow?" Damien asked pouting.
"You are pouting, that is so cute." I replied with a smirk.
"Well?" Damien replied.
"I know exactly what I want. I want you to make me a bento box. No peppers or broccoli. I love egg, most meats and other stirfry veggies and rice and noodles." I said in response.
"I am not a good cook but I can do that much at least. A bento it is I guess. Shall we all get inside now? Also Claire... Ethan... I hate you both for what happen and the fact that you both can fly." Damien said harshly.
We all headed into work. I hoped I would finally get some clarity and what the hell happened.
