It took some time for Scarlet to get her head around the fact that she was no longer human. Thoughts raced through her mind like a pack of wolves. Cravings. Her weakness. It was hard to resist the sweet lucious taste of human blood, running down her lips, into her mouth. So satisfying. She needed it, now, zaidi than anything else. Standing in her bedroom facing the the moon shining brightly in night sky. She closed her eyes gently, breathing in and out. Scarlet felt a sudden chill rise up her back bone, her teeth gowing larger, sharper, ready to feed.
That calm thursday night, the moon was out and glowing beautifully. All was quiet in the town of forester, which meant something wasn't right. On a rocky ledge overlooking the diamond ocean sparkling under the eye of the night, stood Jonathon watching, waiting. "Why hello Jonathon" spoke a voice behind him. He turned to face the stranger. "Who are you?" Jonathon asked, as his short, black hair swayed wildly in the breeze. "My name is Christina. wewe alisema wewe needed my help" apposed Christina as she moved in closer to him. Jonathon stared deeply into her eyes. "It's the vampires. They've come to forester" he sighed briefly.
Scarlet sat kwa her window watching the rain fall from the depressing sky. As she peered closely at the house across the road, suddenly a scream sounded. Scarlets senses tingled as she began to feel as if something was out there. Something big, something dangerous. Scarlet rushed impatiently to her front door. Her hair swung from side to side as she came to her front yard. 3 police cars came driving past quickly. The neighbours were all watching as two officers brought out a body from the house. Blood ran down the carcuses neck and chest. "Oh no. The others have come" she alisema to herself as he back away from the scene. Scarlet jumped into her black Chrystler and headed of to down town forester.
Scarlet arrived at a small shop. The duka looked like one fo those old witchery shops in movies. To her belief, it was a witchery shop. Scarlet walked inside to the front counter. "Hello Scarlet. Haven't seen wewe in a while. How are you? How is your mother, I saw her picking up your little brother from school on monday" Carmen spoke, hanging up a poster with a picture of hands of wisdom on the ukuta beside her. "Hi Carmen. I'm fine and so is my mum. Thanks for asking. Anyways, I need to see, Christina if that's okay" Scarlet proposed picking up one of the scented candles from the counter. "Go ahead kido. She's arouund the back" replied Carmen.
She walked through the crooked hallway. There were frightening pictures on the ukuta of witches in their dark times. She came across a small room, there were 2 people sitting in there playing around with a cauldron, mixing potions together. Scarlet continued walking until she got to the end of the hallway where there was yet another door. It was partly opened. She opened a little zaidi to find Christina sitting kwa a glass ball. "Christina" Scarlet spoke, peering slightly through the door. "Oh hello Scarlet. I was expecting you. Come and sit down hunny" Christina added. Scarlet sat down facing Christina. Her hair was beautifully straightened. Her fringe led into a bunch of hair hanging down onto her shoulder. "It's about the new clan of vampires. There's something about them thats been haunting me for the past weeks. I need to know as much as I can about them" Scarlet explained. Talking about her problem made her even zaidi terrified. She was the only vampire in her family. Her parents nor her siblings new about her secret. It was something she need to keep confidential.
"Well Scar, theres nothing I can say. Two Marafiki of mine are looking out for the city and its people. They are the ones that can take down the Wanyonya damu and keep them away for good. Scar I need wewe and Lina to help them, wewe are Wanyonya damu and wewe can figure them out" requested Christina.
"Sure. But who are they" She asked, as Christina picked up a picha of two young boys. "These two boys. I've known then since they were little kids. au should I say little pups" she laughed, staring at the picture. "Wait, so you're saying that they are werewolfs?" Scarlet asked curiously, grabbing the picha from the desk. Christina nodded and smiled. "They will hurt us though. Wanyonya damu and werewolfs are never meant to be friends" she blurted. "I promise wewe Scarlet, they will not hurt you. Now wewe have to meet them tonight, both of you, right outside of the store. They will be waiting" alisema Christina, as she grabbed Scarlets hand and rubbed it gently.
The night breeze was cool on their necks. "When are these boys gonna get here. It's freezing out here" yelled Lina, frustratingly trying the brush through her long blonde hair. "Lina, you're a vampire. wewe have freaking cold blood for god sakes" Scarlet replied texting on her phone. She was sending a message to christina. Those boys aren't here. Where are they? she wrote. Lina and Scarlet looked into the open space infront of them in the alley. There was a whole lot of fog rising into the air, as two people walked through it.
As they got closer, Scarlet realised it was them. "Are these the guys?" asked Lina, stonned and confused. "Yep" scarlet replied. "Are wewe the vamp chicks au what?" asked one of the boys. He had the middle section of his black hair spiked up into a mowhawk and a very slim body. "Excuse me?" yelled Lina, in fury. "Sorry about him, he's never had to make friendly with vampires" spoke the other guy, pushing his friend out the way. He had very short, black hair, only wearing jeans. His eyes were brown and had the cutest smile. He also had a very slim body. "Uhh it's okay. So your names are?" asked Scarlet, shyly, smiling at him. "Well his name is Jake, and my name. Hi I'm Jonathon" he smiled, shaking Linas hand. He then took Scarlets hand and kissed it gently. "And wewe name is?" he asked, smiling back towards Scarlet. "My name is Scarlet and this is Lina".
"Okay so Scarlet, Lina, I think I'll be able to remember those names" he laughed. Scarlet couldn't take her eyes off him. He was cute, he had a really hot body and the cutest smile in the world. "Okay so Luke is the one we should look out for. Hes already attacked two people already, now we really have to keep watch. It's all up to us to keep this town from anymore danger. Are wewe girls ready?" asked Jonathon, staring at Scarlet. "Scarlet are wewe ready" he asked once more. Scarlet stared back into his eyes "I'm ready" she replied. "Well we gotta go back and see Christina about a couple of things so we'll see wewe girls later" answered Jake shaking the girls hands. Jake then grabbed Jonathons arm and pulled him along behind him. "We also gotta talk about wewe and what you're doing wrong.
Chapter 3 - What's Really going On
Scarlet stood behind the front counter playing around with the little scented candals. She hadn't stopped thinking about Jonathon since thursday night. She felt as if she'd been taken away to another planet. He swept her off her feet. "Scar are wewe listening to me" yelled Christina banging her hand on the counter. "Huh yeah I'm listening" replied Scarlet, as she put the candle in its original place. "Well did wewe meet the boys the other night?" Christina asked. Scarlet stared at Christina speechless. The front door screeched as someone walked in. "Hmm. A customer or... Jonathon hello!" Christina yelled, excitedly. "Why what are wewe doing here?". Jonathon payed no attention to what Christina was saying as to seeing Scarlet as soon as he walked in. She bit her lip as she accidentally tipped over a glass bowl onto the floor. "Scar what are wewe doing?" Christina shrieked, bending over and picking up the pieces. Jonathon looked at Scar and laughed. He walked over and helped Christina pick up the broken glass. "Thank wewe darling. I'm just gonna go put these in the bin. I'll be right back".
When Christina walked into the hallway, Jonathon walked over to the counter. "I've been thinking about you" he spoke, feeling embarassed. "Really. Uhh well me too. Does that make wewe feel less of a weirdo?" Scarlet laughed. "Yeah Kind of. So.. would it be okay if I .. took wewe out to... uhh chajio, chakula cha jioni au a movie? au both... If thats okay with you?" he mutted, rubbing his neck. "I'd upendo to. wewe can pick me up from here at 7:00pm" replied Scarlet. "Sweet. I'll be here. Well I better get going, back to school. Bye" he smiled as he opened the door and walkked out into the street. "Be careful Scarlet. He can get very dangerous. If he gets mad wewe could be in big trouble" Christina reminded. She was holding a giant box that alisema Jonathon on the side. "Where did he go?". "He went back to school I think" she answered. "Oh I got this stuff out for him to take home" Christina put the box on the floor beside the door on a chair.
"How do wewe know them?" asked Scar as she sat comfortably on her chair behind the desk. "They are my god children. I take care of them since their mother and father died" christina explained as a tear ran donw her cheek. "That's sad. How old were the boys when their parents passed away?". "Jonathon was 10 and Jake was 8. Those boys didn't deserve that to happen to them. They were the most well-behaved kids i'd ever met" she cried. "Wow I had no idea. I'm sorry" Scarlet apologised, handing christina a tissue. "Thank wewe dear. Jon needs a nice caring girl to have around. Like wewe Scar. I want him to have a great life with someone he really cares about. To raise a beautiful family with that girl. I really hope its you. Even if wewe have to break the rules. Who cares about rules" Christina laughed. Although Scarlet didn't find it very amusing.
"Break the rules? What rules? What do wewe mean kwa that?" Scarlet questioned repeatedly. Christina put her hand on Scarlets shoulder. "Vampires and mtu-bweha aren't really allowed to interact in an intimate way au have a realtionship with eachother. In the Dark world, they do not allow different creatures to have any connection with eachother. It can only be with your own kind". Scarlet started to feel insecure and sick to her stomach "Are wewe serious" she screamed in anger. "I don't care. I'm still gonna do this. No one can stop me" she yelled as she dashed out the door in fury.
Jonathon stood infront of his mirror tieing his tie up. "Now where the hell are wewe going tonight?" asked Jake laying across the kitanda on his blackberry. "I'm going on a tarehe with someone" he replied, as he threw his koti, jacket on. "With that vamp girl aye. Uhh whats her name? Let me see. I can't remember but anyway she's gonna get wewe in trouble with the Dark world" he laughed sarcastically, as Jonathon threw a can of deoderant at him. "Okay okay calm down" yelled Jake. "I'm not gonna get in trouble from anyone. Why do wewe say that?" asked Jonathon, crossing his arms and staring at Jake. "Well apparently, Wanyonya damu and Mbwa mwitu loups aren't allowed to be intimate with eachother in any way. And we both know how hard that would be for you" he reminded as he patted Jonathon on the shoulder. "Have fun brother, and here's a dollar to call me with when wewe go to Dark world jail" he laughed handing a dollar coin to him.
Darkness had fallen over the land and something in the air just wasnt right. Luke was free and seeking his revenge on the ones who trapped in that old metal cell in 1788. He sat in a dark alley in the outskirts on Forester with a small plastic bag full of blood. Luke sat waiting as the uprising of the moon shone against his pale face. A black Chrystler drove towards him, as a girl stepped out of the back kiti, kiti cha covered kwa a long, white cloak. She took of the hood. "Luke" the mysterious mistress spoke. "Scarlet" Luke replied, he kissed Scarlet lightly on the cheek. "I missed my baby face so much" alisema Luke. His hand gently touching the bottom of her chin. "Luke we've been over for months, besides I've found someone else alot zaidi smarter". Fury raged through Lukes body as he slammed Scarlet into the ukuta kwa her neck. "Who is this someone else hay? Does he complete you? Does he know how to treat a women?" Luke alleged licking an area of skin on Scarlets neck. "You look so delicious in the moonlight, to bad if that were to go away" he whisppered.
Savagous growls sounded behind them. "Why hello my mbwa mwitu friends, I see wewe have found me and my darling Scarlet" he spoke with sarcasm, taking no notice in the 3 werewolfs standing there behind him. As he continued about to sink his teeth into Scarlets neck, one of the wolfs, Jonathon, with all of his force managed to tackle down Luke. "Okay wewe got me. But inayofuata time... Don't... be... so... sure" he smirked as Jonathon stood back letting him run off into the mist.
Joanthon sat staring at a photo. Not just any photo, but a picture of Scarlet. It was Scarlet at her senior graduation. He turned the picha around the look at the back where there was a passage of writing.
It said:
"Scarlets Graduation: december 2005" and in big bold letters it said
"TO L.M WITH upendo FROM SCARLET YORK". "Hmm..." he sat wondering. The passage with bold ran through his mind repetitively like the sound of a grandfather clock.

Journal,
Its cold. My chakula is almost gone, I can’t feel my hands. I Lost my hat; my ears are frozen. My sisters are dying. Sasha has pneumonia, and Nastea’s Lost her kanzu, koti and shoes. My hair is falling out. I look at the broken down train behind us. Tree’s sleep soundlessly on juu of it. I sit at a mti trunk, with wewe on my lap, and a scrawny pencil in my hand. Nastea sits beside Sasha, feeding her berries and herbs. I hope things get better, Journal. I hope things get better.
Bye Journal,
Nadia

she unloads his gun
She and he waits for this
he releases his love
In blue and green orbs
she gives him zaidi and more
A million miles away
A million years girl
In a black woven chest
he digs his nails deep
She trusts in him for what he does
live in a house in the suburbs
He kisses the pain with blood and light
sleeping it off in the morning
A million miles away
A million years girl
In her world of his
she unloads his gun
In a world of his
she covers the sun
A million miles away
A million years
A million years girl
