We sat at the bar and ordered, Charles and Lynn ordered Gin with a tonic, and I ordered a car with ice and lemon because I didn't like alcohol. Charles invited Lynn to a dance and she almost flew away from happiness, they went to the dance floor, I stayed at the bar watching everyone until my gaze stopped on a certain person. This was our director and he was not alone, next to him sat a girl with maybe one or two years older than me, with black shoulder-length hair and a tight body. Mr. William did not spit, he was with Miss Marcas in the morning, and now. I wondered what they were doing here, I was curious I approached a little and saw that they were looking at a boy with blond hair, quite tall compared to me, I was a dozen and twenty from the ground. I couldn't see his face because he had his back. He went somewhere and they followed him, and of course I followed them I was close enough to watch them and far enough away not to be noticed. We reached the back exit, they went outside, I followed them and hid behind a large trash can. The girl grabbed the boy and put him on his knees. And Mr. Kurt pulled out a pistol and aimed it at him. I opened my eyes, they asked him about something but he refused to tell them. Then he just shot him, I screamed and fell on my ass attracting unwanted attention. The headmaster looked at me, surprise and anxiety in his eyes, slowly approached me.
"Anne isn't what she seems," he began, and I shyly stood back.
-T-you..t-you killed him, killed the boy- I told him stuttering, I wanted to run away to hide but my body was still stiff and I could not move.
-Please give me a chance to explain to you-he asked me, and I shook my head negatively I did not want to listen to him.
-He wasn't a man, Anna.
-How was he not a man, so you, you are a murderer, a psychopath, do not come closer-I managed to get the spray out of my little bag and aimed it at him.
-Anastasia, listen to me- I froze, dropping the spray, no one had called me that since I was twelve, no one knew my real name.
"Where are you from?" I fell silent as soon as I saw the boy who had been lying in a pool of blood until minutes ago stand up and start fighting the girl who was with William. Everything came to me more, I felt everything blur and I closed my eyes.
~ Two days later ~
I woke up with a terrible headache, the memories of
last night they invaded my mind, I was scared, I wasn't terrified, I looked around, I was in an unfamiliar place, I heard footsteps coming towards me, I curled up in one corner of the bed. Where the hell was I? What's going on? So many questions I didn't have answered. The black-haired girl I saw with the director entered the room with Linda, thank God she was fine, I had completely forgotten about her.
-Linn-red-haired girl came to me and hugged me.-What happened? Where are we?
"In something like an Academy, Anne ..." she said, leaving me, I looked at her whole eyes and they were red and swollen, she always cried all night. "Charles is dead ..."
"How was Lynn so dead last night? What happened?"
"Well, Anne, it was actually two days ago," she began, but I interrupted her.
-Two days?
-Yes, you were unconscious for two days, I was very worried.
-Tell me all about why Charles is dead.
-After the dance was over we went back to the bar but you were not there, I was worried and that's why we went to look for you then we came across Sasha, when he saw her his eyes changed, he attacked her. He ... wasn't Anne's man - she explained to me with tears in her eyes.
-Who is Sasha? -I asked and the black-haired girl approached, introducing herself to me.
-I'm Sasha Dobrovich, look Anastasia, I know you're scared, but it's time to find out the truth.
-True? What truth?
-I'm your guardian-I stared at their meeting.
-Guardian? -I repeated her words- Mine? Uh..and me again ??? !!
- I have been protecting you since your mother died, Miss Mirkovic.
-Wait, what ?? You look 21 years old, and my mother died when I was 10, how is it possible ??
"Actually, I just look so different, I'm 65," she smiled, and I stared at her with my mouth open.
-Don't tell me you're a vampire, this is complete nonsense, there are such things only in fairy tales and legends!
-I am a fairy madam, you on the other hand are a dumper and a fairy, the only one of its kind.
I laughed.
-This is nonsense, I'm just a girl- I got out of bed and stood in front of Dobrovich.
-Look Sasha until two days ago I was a normal girl and my only concern was to finish my book, your words have no logic because my mother is Russian and my father is an American and they died in an accident and they are both PEOPLE. I emphasized angrily, and she calmly began to sprinkle nonsense again.
-Anastasia Mirkovich, your mother was a dumper and she was also one of the best guardians, but of the Moroccan princess Jelena, she protected her from the strigoi and feyte. He met your father during one of the most terrible battles between the moroi, the fairies and the strigoi, and they separated before you were born. He was my master, the prince of the fairies, his name was Vasily Svrgeevich, and he is now exiled with the ancients in the afterlife, and only your blood can open the gates.
"Finish! I refuse to listen to your nonsense anymore, Lynn and I are leaving now! Come on, Lynn!" I took my best friend's hand and we left the room. I looked around everywhere there were students I guess they looked my age or one, two older than me but I wasn't quite sure. Everyone was staring at us and whispering, I was even angrier.
"What are you staring at, don't you have another job?" I shouted, and Lynn approached and whispered to me.
-An, only in my blouse - I looked at myself, I was wearing a wide blouse that hid part of my thighs. Where the hell are my clothes. I hurried to hide behind Lee.
"Where are my clothes?" I asked her.
-The dress was dirty so Mr. Kurt gave me his blouse and I dressed you with it.
I looked at her even angrier and then I heard his voice!
