Everything is Not What it Seems

Chapter Eight

Seth’s POV-

We were in my room and I was one, thinking of how we were going to tell her without freaking out and two, wishing we didn’t have to do this.

“Are ready to play Rock Band then?” Kaylee asked

“Not right now there is something all of need to tell you.” I told her and she looked a little concerned.

“Okay, what is it?” she asked

“I don’t know how to tell you this without freaking you out.” I told her

“We are vampires and werewolves.” David said quickly

“What? You’re what? Wait, what, huh?” Kaylee said then she feinted

“Oh my god we killed her!” I said freaking out

“God I hope not! None of us will be able to put with you for eternity if that was to happen.” David said

“It’s your fault David that she feinted; you told her what we were so bluntly!” Seth told David

“Yeah I agree, that defiantly wasn’t the best way to tell her.” Cooper said agreeing with Seth

“Well I can’t help the fact it freaked her out! What would you do if you found you were living/
friends with vampires and werewolves?” David said

“I know but still, how could you have been so insensitive?” I asked David

“Guys chill out we knew she was going to freak when we told her.” Cooper stated

“Well not everyone can see into the future, now can we?” I stated

“Sorry I can’t help the fact that I can see into the future, so take a chill pill. Oh, act calm she is going to be waking up in 10 seconds.” Cooper told us

“I knew this was a bad idea.” I mumbled to nobody in particular.

“Did I feint?” Kaylee asked sitting up

“Yeah, right after we told you we are vampires and werewolves.” Will said

“So you guys are really vampires and werewolves then?” Kaylee asked

“Yeah,” I said,” Will, Cooper, and I are vampires and David, Sam, and Matt are werewolves.”

“Okay.” She said still looking a little freaked

“Do you have any questions?” Stupid question I know but I still had to ask it.

“Yes I do, do you drink human blood?” She asked

“No, we drink animal blood, and we don’t feed straight from the animal either. The school provides blood for us, like in the form of fruit punch, sauces, or other things like that.” Will explained

“Seth so is this why your family doesn’t like you?” Kaylee asked

“Yes, also a few weeks after I was changed another vampire killed my sister. My parents blamed me for that, and they kicked me out.” I told her looking at the floor. I hated my past and I didn’t exactly like revealing it to anybody.

“I’m so sorry.” She said giving me a hug, which shocked me because I thought she would have been afraid of me.

“Next question because I know you have plenty more!” Cooper said

“Okay,” She said sitting back down on her bed next to Matt.” How old are you exactly?”

“We are 151 years old.” Matt said pointing to himself, Cooper, and David.

“We are 253.” Will and Sam said

“I am the youngest of our little group, I am 101 years old.” I told her

“Are all of you unnaturally strong?” Kaylee asked

“Yes we are.” Matt replied proudly flexing his arms which made Kaylee laugh.

“Aren’t werewolves and vampires supposed to be enemies?”

“No not really some vampires and werewolves are but the six of us get along pretty well.” Sam said while smacking Cooper upside the head.

“What was that for?” Cooper said rubbing the back of his head

“I just felt like it.” Sam explained shrugging it off and Cooper just rolled his eyes.

“Do any of you have any… special abilities?” Kaylee said.

“Yes, vampires can read other vampire’s minds.” Cooper said,” For example Seth is wondering about when is a decent time to eat.”

“Wow Seth all you think about is food.” Kaylee said laughing

“No it is not I’m just hungry!” I said shooting death glares at Cooper, thank god he actually say what was on my mind; Kaylee.”

David said,” Werewolves can do the whole mind reading thing that the vampires can. Only with other werewolves, and we don’t have to be in our wolf form to read each other’s minds.”

“I can see into the future.” Cooper said

“I am sort of like father time. I can speed it up, freeze it, make it go in slow motion, and do other things with it.” Matt said

“Wow that’s really neat.” Kaylee said staring at Matt

“All, vampires and werewolves both, can move really fast, to the point where we aren’t noticed by anyone or anything.” David explained, and to prove it the next second he was basically sitting in Kaylee’s lap. Kaylee’s face was that of pure shock, everyone burst out laughing. After he had successfully proved what he said he went back to where he was sitting.

“I am extremely musical, and I have the gift to keep people on beat or make them play their instrument better. Don’t worry I have never and will never do that to you, you have pure talent almost like me and I don’t want to touch that.” I told her

“Do you have any more questions?” Sam asked her

“Tons, can any of you sleep?”

“Yes, but we can only sleep for a short amount of time. That goes for both werewolves and vampires.” Will told her

“That must suck, what about imprinting?” Kaylee asked. Dang it the one question I was praying she wouldn’t ask she does.

“Both vampires and werewolves can do it.” I said

“Have any of you guys imprinted on anyone?” Kaylee asked almost a bit afraid

“I have to a girl I met over spring break two years ago. Her name is Sarah and when I told her everything she said that she was actually a vampire too and that she imprinted had on me also. It was quite a funny. We get along great and the best part is I don’t have to try to control myself really because she can take what I give her and give it right back if not harder and I can just be me. She goes to a school just like this but for girls only, we have been together since I told her and we spend all the time we can together when we aren’t in school.” Cooper told Kaylee

“I also imprinted son someone, her name is Paige. Unlike Cooper’s imprint Paige is a human and as fragile as anything. I am so happy I met her. When I met her it was when I was living in my hometown at a pool that I was being the life guard at. I scared her at first when I told her that I was a werewolf and she didn’t talk to me for like two weeks but then one day she just came up to me and apologized that she had been scared and said it didn’t matter to her who I was and we have been together ever since.

While David was telling Kaylee about Paige I heard both Will and Cooper in my head.

-Will- Yikes!

-Cooper- Are you going to tell her Seth?

-Seth- Do you think I should?

-Cooper- I say you do it but not exactly say it’s her.

-Will- Yeah, do that! That way you can get at least part of it off your chest!

-Seth- Thanks guys I’ll do that.

“I have also imprinted on someone.” Sam said,” She is my brother’s girlfriend’s sister I have known her for like ever. Her name is Anna and she is my girlfriend, she is best girl ever I love her.”

Well here goes nothing, I thought to myself,” I have also imprinted on someone.” I informed Kaylee, and her face fell a bit.” I imprinted on this girl, I haven’t told her about it yet. The reason I haven’t told her is because I don’t know how she will respond. I do want her to be my girlfriend though.” It felt good to get that off my chest even if I didn’t tell her it was her who I imprinted on.

“Who did you imprint on?” Kaylee asked me

“Ask all of your questions and if you really want to know after that then I will tell you.” I said

“Okay then when do werewolves phase?” She asked

“We phase when we get really angry, but we can control ourselves most of the time.” David said

“Tell me if I am wrong but are all werewolves’ eyes green?” Kaylee asked

“Yes you are correct.” Matt told her

“Are all vampires’ eyes blue?” She asked

“Yeah you are right.” I told her distracted

“Why do werewolves and vampires exist?” Kaylee asked

“Vampires have existed since the beginning of time. The only way you can become a vampire is having the vampire gene passed on from your parents.” Will told her

“Werewolves were created when a man called Alexander Rompsenburg was traveling in the woods and got mauled by a wolf. The wolf had somehow gotten cut on something and was bleeding and the blood had somehow ended up in Alexander’s mouth. If Alexander hadn’t ingested the drop of the wolf’s blood then he wouldn’t have survived the attack or have become half man half wolf, or as we call it now a werewolf.” Sam explained,” To become a werewolf you have to either be a direct descendent of Alexander Rompsenburg, he had about 10 kids, or you have to ingest blood from either a wolf or werewolf. All three of us are direct descendents of Alexander Rompsenburg. The werewolf gene skips every three generations and then someone becomes a werewolf.”

“Wow that’s really interesting!” Kaylee exclaimed

“And that is why they don’t serve us wolf blood here.” Will said laughing a bit

“So all of you were like this when you were little?” Kaylee asked us

“No the vampire gene takes effect on your 18th birthday.” Cooper informed her

“If all of you are over 100 years old then why are you still at school?” Kaylee asked us
Matt was the one to give Kaylee an answer,” Well we have already done the whole school thing at least two times, except Seth. Every 50 years starting at age 50 we have to attend a school like this one to keep up on new laws concerning us or things that have happened, and to also learn new human things.”

“Okay,” Kaylee said,” That makes sense. Well I don’t really have any more questions at the moment.”

“Well I do!” David said,” How are you not scared out of your brains with what we have told you?”

“I really don’t know but I’m not.” She said

“Are you feeling alright?” David asked

“Yes, I’m fine!” Kaylee proclaimed

At this point I was practically crossing my fingers and praying that she wouldn’t ask the one question I was dreading.

“Anybody want to play Rock Band?” Kaylee asked, okay that question was okay.

After playing Rock Band for a good two hours it looked as though Kaylee was going to pass out. I looked at the clock and it was two in the morning, when did it get to be that time?

“Hey guys it’s getting late.” I said. All the guys looked at Kaylee who was so close to falling asleep that they used their unnatural speed to get out of my room.

“I still have one question.” Kaylee said sleepily to me while grabbing her pajamas and heading into the bathroom.

Perfect, I thought,” Ask me it when you come out of the bathroom.”

“Okay,” Kaylee said

Thirty minutes later she still hadn’t come out yet. I bet she fell asleep. Sure enough when I went in, I know I shouldn’t have but I had to make sure she didn’t die or something, she was fast asleep with only her shirt changed and her jeans still on. So I picked her up in my arms and put her in her bed then I went back to the bathroom and picked up her shirt and put in the hamper. Then I went and took a quick shower. When I got out I put on a pair of green with white polka dot boxers and fell asleep, in my bed.
