CHAPTER 1
Today is just going to be another boring day...….
My name is Kelly steward, I'm 17 years old and I live with my mom in a small town called Rose Ville. Rose Ville is a town where everyone lived far from each other and minds their business and that was the statement I made the morning of the incident. I never knew my life was going to change from that day it was all shocking but it was my fate, and it had a great impact on the life of I and my mom.
It all started "November 13"the day I can never forget
It was the morning of the November 13, I just taught it was going to be another boring day but unknowing to me it was going to be the day my life completely changed.
That morning, I wasn't so excited about going to school but I just had to go because I wasn't up for missing classes and copying long notes the next week. I styled my black hair into a messy bun and since my school was a prep I wore my uniform and got everything ready that I needed for school and I went down stairs to have breakfast.
When I went downstairs I met my mom trying to make break fast.my mom had black long hair like mine and she had really light skin and she was originally from Korea, my mom isn't exactly a great cook but she tries her best to make a decent meal to eat. She actually came from a very rich and prestigious family so she didn't have the privilege to learn how to cook because they had a lot of chefs doing all the work my mom didn't like talking about her family so I barely knew anything about her, I don't even know if she has siblings or not.
After I had greeted my mom I sat down at the kitchen counter and my mom served me breakfast, the food didn't look well…..you know, and my served me with a smile and I couldn't say no to the breakfast and I knew she worked hard to prepare breakfast .when I tried the food it wasn't that bad, who am I kidding it was terrible but I just had to eat that one bite.
I needed a diversion fast, I said to myself and it came to me "mom! I'm going to be late for school!" I shouted and the I grabbed an apple and stuffed in my back pack. "but sweetie its only 7:30am"my mom said ,and I replied "I know, I'm late" ,"but don't forget to take your lunch money "she said ,and then I grabbed my backpack and ran as fast as I could to the door and shouted "love you "and left , from a distance I heard my mom say "I love you too"
It took a little over 5 minutes before I finally got to school. I headed to my first class which was math's which I didn't like but I just had to get above average.
As usual school was as boring as always everything was so dull, each class felt like it lasted at least a life time. And then I had an idea, since it was a Friday I had a great idea to have a sleep over at my house, unknowing to me that everything would go downhill.
Dring, dring...… the school bell rang I was so happy because it was the end of the school day .I and my friends met in front of the school as usual, then I told my friends about the slumber party I wanted to have tonight and they all agreed to come . I invited all my close friend, I invited Maria .Maria was the most cheerful and fun person I knew, she had long black hair and beautiful grey eyes, she loved dancing and was also a poet under all her charming characters she had some not so charming characters that I don't like talking about because it makes me feel guilty about talking about what she did before we became good friends. I also invited Abishola .Abishola was an African. Abishola had radiant dark skin. She also had curly dark hair and sparkling dark brown eyes. we call her Abby because her name was kind of hard to pronounce she was the crazy but yet the fun one in our group she was also responsible and a geek and another thing I like about her is that she always tells the truth and always blunt but not too blunt. And last but not least I invited Christy. Christy had long brunette hair, she also had very pretty hazel eyes. She was the most responsible one among us, she was the type would fit the role of a class president, but she didn't like the idea. She was silly sometimes. The thing I loved the most about her was her voice, her voice was angel like and she became shy anytime she sings in front of an audience, and she was also my best friend.
After school I and my friends walked home together, we talked for a while, then Maria left and it was I, Abishola and Christy that was still walking then Christy left and later on it was time for me to go home. A while after I got home I began to get everything ready for the slumber party.by the time I was through with getting everything ready the girls had already arrived at my house. that night so fun we played different games and watched a lot of movies after that we all went to bed, everything had gone so well that actually what I taught but it was the opposite of what was about to happen.
12 midnight that's when disaster struck, my mom is usually awake by then because she usually watched the news by that time. I woke up to get water, then I saw my mom in the living room and she looked so worried and scared and then I turned to the television to see what she was watching the I saw the news headlines on the television, it was shocking and hard to believe .it said that "the city was under attack and there has been strange deaths all around the city and what has been causing them are beings that have unexplainable powers and their almost impossible to catch."[By this time everyone was awake]. "Special forces have been able to catch one of this creature and it was a child after tests it was discovered that it was some kind of high breed human and its powers are similar to that of a vampire and now the government are worried that there could be hundreds or maybe thousands of these creatures and they are very dangerous, so citizens are advised to stay indoors at night" .when I heard that I didn't believe it, I taught it was all a joke or a mistake, misunderstanding ,I didn't believe but to my greatest surprise my friends and my mom believed everything and they were terrified. Then I said to them "I hope you don't believe this "And then Christy replied me saying "what do you expect, there is already enough proof. And I don't think the news or the government will make such a thing up" I was so surprised to hear Christy out of everyone say such a thing. I then left the living room, not because I was angry or anything, but because I couldn't believe how unbelievable my mom and friends were being. I needed to clear my mind for a minute and try to understand where they were coming from, and then went i back to my room. When I got to my room, I taught about it and I partially understood where Christy was coming from, I just thought Christy and the others were just being paranoid. And so I decided to go and just be there with her as she is in her current state of mind, as I was about to open the door of my room I heard a loud thud that came from outside. I immediately ran to the living room to tell everyone what I heard moving around, but when I got to the living room I got one of the greatest surprise and fright of my life. I immediately turned around to run back but before I got the chance, something stopped me.
