Chapter 8 - Kiara's POV

11:25pm

I sat in front of my mirror brushing my hair that is, until my reflection smirked at me. the hair in my reflection turned black and the eye's charcoal black. Meet my sister.

''What is it Effi?'' I asked rolling my eyes. ''What have I told you about appearing in my mirror?".

"Why, hello to you too sister". She hmphed.

I glared at her.

"Mother and father have summoned you back home." your needed", she said going straight to the point.

My glare intensified.

"I told you guys-".

"That what!?", she asked sarcastically, ''You're on an 'oh so important' quest to retrieve what had been hidden a million years ago?'' She sneered.

''I am doing this for my people!!!!!'' My eyes burned red.

''They are my people too!!!'' My sister's eyes turned red too. This is just a waste of time. Living amongst humans in the hope of what??-''.

''I got the key!'' I blurted out.

*uck. I shouldn't have said that.

Her eyes turned back to normal as she appeared shocked. She knew I wasn't one to joke around.

''W-what?'' She choked out.

I raised up the key to her view.

''I found the key earlier today''.

''Impossible'' She muttered in disbelief. ''The legend is true?''.

''Yes. Now if you'll leave my mirror alone. I've got work to do''. I casted a quick spell and my reflection came back.

I stood up at looked at the time.

11:31pm.

Shit. I pulled on my black cloak and covered half of my face with the hood. I stretched out my hand and a vortex appeared. Once i stepped in i appeared infront of Evie and she freaked out.

''Ahhh!''.

''It's me''.I covered her mouth with my palm and glared at her. ''Would you quiet down''.

''Kiara?'' I saw Tasha, Tristen and Hailey approaching us. I left Evie and took some steps back. ''Let's go ''. I said and in the blink we were at the pond.

I looked up to the sky.

A full moon. Perfect.

''Okay gather 'round'' I instructed and they actually obeyed with no complaint.

''What now?'' Tasha asked .

Spoke to soon. I took out a dagger.

''Give me your hand''. I said to Tasha.

''WHAT!? NO *UCKING WAY! DON'T YOU DARE INCLUDE ME TO YOUR SHIT!!!!''.

''I rolled my eyes.

''You pulled out the key therefore it's your blood i need''. I explained simply.

She stared at the dagger in fright.

''F-fine''. She said then with an evil smirk, ''What's the magic word?''.

''Are you kidding me!?''.

''P-p-ple-ple'' I can't do this.

''Almost there'' Tasha snickered.

''Nope'' In the blink of an eye, I grabbed her hand and slashed open her palm. I slashed open my own palm without batting an eye and grabbed Tasha's own palm. I placed our joined palms over the river and our mixed up blood dropped into the river.

Nothing happened.

''Seriously!? Don't tell me i slashed open my palm for nothing!'' Tasha yelled in rage. That's until the ground started shaking.

''Earthquake!!!'' Hailey yelled.

I knew this was no ordinary earthquake. The water glowed red and rumbled then something began to emerge from it.

I could see leaves! branches...

A tree.

''Woah''. We all said simutenaously. The tree stood at the middle of the lake and i floated towards it.

''She can fly! so unfair'' I heard Hailey mummer but I ignored her. I placed the key into a hole a section opened. In it there it was! I took out the old wooden box.

''Yes''. I breathed out. I could feel myself twitching in excitement.

''Not so fast witch'' The box was snatched from my hand by blur. I whirled from my hand by a blur. I whirled around and saw Zack smirking at me with the box in his hands. He had fangs and red eyes. oh no.

''You're a vampire'' I gritted my teeth and raced towards him but was blocked by xavier. He too had fangs. 

''Sorry it had to come to this. And I was actually beginning to like you'' He 'tisked' at me.

''Give it back''. I said as deadly as possible and i could feel my powers awakening.

''Now Tasha'' Xavier said and before i could turn, I was knocked out
