Chereads / The New Journey of a Dhampir / Chapter 43 - Belladonna

Chapter 43 - Belladonna

Dawn pulled out her thoughts, as she heard the nurses, saying that Crown was here. She turned her head, where she saw him with a shattered glass in his outstretched black claws. There was broken glass, but there was still coffee inside of the cup.

Crown flew on the nearest desk, where he gently dropped the cup on it, then one of the nurses came closer and lifted the cup. One of the nurses, who was called Mrs. Jane started to sniff the substance in the cup before shaking her head, then she told us that she will do some testing on the substances.

Dawn went to sit down next to Iravan on the bed, which caused him to stiffen her movement, his muscles tightening at her proximity. She raises her eyes, as she wonders, 'Is he not used to people's close proximity?', then she saw him start to relax again. Thus she didn't worry about it any much longer.

She watches the nurses leave the room, where the door shuts with a soft, quiet bang. She turns around again, where she sees that Iravan was watching her closely, she smiles with little caution, "Hey."

He tilts his head again before raising his hand, trying to touch the strands of her hair again, thus she feels the familiar cold, soft sensation of his fingers against her arms, where her hair lies in his hands in a gentle grip.

Then he tries to speak again in the quiet room, "Hi, Why no heal him?"

She looks at him with a severe look, "Because I don't know how much effect your songs have on humans. It's too risky, what if your songs are harmful?"

Then he looks confused by her words, the eyes that speak perplexity and bewilderment. Dawn realizes he doesn't understand the language, so she grabs his hand that's cold to the touch, then she speaks in her mind again.

Then the familiar, yet unfamiliar voice of the rushing water speaks again in the room,"My song heals and kills. My kind use this to heal each other when injured."

The doors open with a light sound, the nurses came in the room with a sober expression, then Dawn glances at them with confusion, Mrs. Jane came forward and told us, "The poison is called 'Belladonna'.

Dawn asks, "What is that?" whereas she hears Crown gasps in shock. Dawn looks at him for an explanation, Crown then explains with a terrible, grim expression, "Bellondia is a poisonous plant that contains toxic alkaloids, which have been used for medical and cosmetic purposes." Everyone was in their own thoughts, but everyone had the same thought, 'Who and why did they poison Jonathan who is just a school principal, despite the school for the supernatural. The room was filled with an overwhelming atmosphere that breathed gloom and apprehension.

This shows they are dealing with a dangerous someone in this school who knows too much. Everyone had a grim expression because this school protects everyone's real identity, that allows them to blend in with the society, where no one believes in werewolves, vampires, or witches.

This helps them to protect themselves, from those who would hunt them down for being different. People fear those who are stronger and different than them. That is a school for all supernaturals, to help those who are struggling to learn to control their darkest impulses. Witches are easily provoked into anger, which can lead to disastrous consequences.

Werewolves are easily provoked by anger and aggression, which can lead to devastating consequences, where the animal within attacks, where they lead trails of bodies sprawled on the ground.

Vampires become dangerous when they are consumed by bloodlust. They deal with unending thirst, that can end in catastrophic consequences, where humans can lose their lives.

History has shown that. If humans becomes aware of the terrible truth, that lives amongst them, no one know what will happens?

Terrible things will follow for certain.
