The most jarring part of not knowing of whether you're the only one who knows the big picture or that you're the only one who has gone mad is the uncertainty itself, for that very reason you cannot even blink as death is starring into the face or have a nervous breakdown on the most beautiful day of the year, or the situations be reversed.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIfXyBlSn1
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71MZnGzLt4
Then of course it's one of those days that where you wish that you let that demon dog you found in the forest devour you.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Nv3CDaorz
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq3su1Nft7
Am I crazy for thinking that or not crazy for thinking that?181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLuNU7exER
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04CxfsTYqt
Guess we'll find out soon as another day comes.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5J0pq8uUE

Ross ran down that unpaved country road as he tried his best to maintained a controlled breathing as he went through several boxing drills. He had been focusing on two things, avoiding everything and anything so as to not get involved in dangerous affairs and building himself up.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06SVOaskOS
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gWKPuv4it
Not to fight or to become someone great, but so survive. And it is for that reason that he was doing cardio for stamina and speed to run away and going through boxing drills while doing so.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsGHzwg8gn
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwamDaMnQ67
As he reached the top of a nearby hill he could look down and see the small town where he had woken up/gone mad in. And with it he could contemplate on this new world.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4GcCLVkTW
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuGQAGaEPG
It was the type of world where it looked to be a seemingly similar to Harry Potter/ Beautiful Creatures/Dresden and many other franchises where hiding within it was a secret community of non-human/magical beings.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfh2QfHiui
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9IpPJEbBc
And looking down on Ross wondered how they managed to stay hidden. He could see small bodied witches teleporting in an out of empty fields where they thought no one could see them.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJOTlfbgbS
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ru6d3KKTp
Other shifted into flying animals or just took flight on their own. Portals popped in and out on the other side of the field, where they thought that no one could see.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQc1COJl5S
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GZmOR6B5z
How could the world forget about magic?181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVNQFfq1Xd
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAtKD833Pm
Was it really that low of an attention span, that all it took was half a hundred meters distance for humanity to ignore it? Or maybe that was just more proof that Ross had lost his mind, and all of this was delusions.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEngXm39R96
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAzREuxRUb
Either way Ross decided to take the road less travelled on his way back, in order to avoid getting involved in who knows what drama or danger the magically inclined got into. Things like that always happened in any book series.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIUlf40KKR
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrNPnX2Y60
And that was how he walked straight into a group of vampires as they were in the middle...........this was actually happening....... a group of vampires who were hanging about in a small clearing as one of the vampire ladies was drinking the blood of a man on the ground.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1DjVsr15v
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SlQnJR8Rf
"Time momentarily stopped for Ross, oh shit why am I narrating now? Damn, maybe I should up my dosage." Ross said as he took a few steps to the towards the neatest three and leaned against it as he cradled his face in his hands. When he slid it down he saw that the group of vampires was now in front of him, surrounding him.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmLf3PUg5B
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpBm3MxZ9V
"This is by far the most unique hallucination that I've ever had up until now."181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5aAE3tVPb
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdl96jUR33
"Hallucination? Dearest Ross? I never knew you had issues, I hope it's not serious." The apparent leader of the group, a girl with long flowing hair and wearing a gala like dress said.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2USitxvofg
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzaj96fyev
"You know me?"181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkBi08UD01
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCXacKv4qB
"Many do, but that comes from you being the only boy at school who doesn't gossip like an old woman, swear like a sailor or whistle at women like a wolf. You have quite the reputation as calm and smart guy." She said.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZUekUd374
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsBkahojN4
"Yeah, we'll since I'm alone in the woods and surrounded I don't feel very smart right now." Ross said and this made the group chuckle.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3jNUgHhZt
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckM8LScxyW
"And yet there's no fear. Why is that? Don't you think that vampires are reason enough to fear." The leader asked.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLR3MdApBD
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo44YA8Qzqp
"Why? You don't kill." Ross said and the group of vampires did a double take.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2ZhC95EvT
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HAipdpnfx
"H-how did you know that?" The blonde vampire next to the leader said.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSB3o8kWu1z
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENrIV1Fitm
"I read long ago that some math expert calculated that if Vampires killed the ones they drank from then humanity would disappear within a year and since human population has been increasing I'm guessing that you don't kill, just get them drunk, drink then hypnotize to forget."181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPNpaBQMRo
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmN9ijYrEa
At that the leader gave a smile and light clap of her hands.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef07vJpmda
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuIOtB2yyG
"Brava, you're the first one mortal to come to that conclusion so fast. You have the wisdom of an elder." At the woman's words a flood of memories struck Ross as he had to cradle his head again as echoes of a past life, of an older body, a life that had seen enough to temper the fire of youth with the wisdom of age set in.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnzxyJdfTb
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTIcA9npCE
It was why having lived in that world, the real world, that this encounter did not end up if a fight to the death, but rather a meeting of two cultures, of two peoples.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gCdRVjPfE
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqQicIfDl9
And with that he also started to remember certain things from this new life. Like how he now remembered the name of the leader, the girl's name was Belladonna Du Bois, someone who was very popular at school along with her clique of girls.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrJ1ThmB8f
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOLvnSp7AS
"Bro, you okay?" Ross heard a man's voice from behind and saw that the man who had been fed upon was up on from the ground, rubbing his neck where the fangs whereas the blonde vampire glomped him and embraced his left arm in her own as in an amorous manner as she leaned against him.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQZfMBKNHu
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsS0e4xlSW
"Yeah, just.....honestly I just don't know what it is, just one of those days that you wish you never got out of bed." Ross said towards the boy that was a fellow from school that he recognized as a once top player on the football team namely Michael Aubernaty.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEyYjRDuyu
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIkEmFaWd0
"I hear ya bro. I felt the same way when I was dating my ex and the one before that, heck I use to think that everything was shit, that no matter what I did was not good enough, that everyone was a backstabbing bitch. Then I met my Jessie, and she made me realize that things get better." Michael said and gestured to the vampire that had been drinking his blood earlier.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWo5DKgZKP
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfd20am9Am
"You're dating?" Ross asked in surprise.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ509uDuxSaS
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsjeyBcWuZ
"Steady on for 3 months now! That reminds me! Happy anniversary babe." Michael said as he gave the vampire called Jessie Brown a silver chain bracelet.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMUt4ll6ck
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6vFnTTW7t
"You seem to be taking this in very good stride, are you from a family that's in the know about the magical world?" Belladonna asked.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfCNYIiD9v
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXU4xCiKSF
"No, I'm just a muggle." Ross replied.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfv6xFNrzu
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlvAjeMJZu
"How are you taking this so calmly?"181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpMBb3CaJ7
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEqFim08RU
"I'm crazy." At that Belladonna's face morphed into a bat like scowl as she pointed a finger with a razor sharp talon right into Ross's face.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdK2D7aMg3
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrh5LvDada
"Don't you ever! EVER! Say that again! You came while Jessie was feeding and you didn't scream, or run or attack, or call us freaks or monsters or abominations! You talked to us, you listened, you were calm and logical and all that boring stuff! And that's good, that's how it should be! So don't you ever EVER dare say that you behave like a crazy person! Cause what you just did....it's not crazy...." Belladonna said with a voice that held the undertones of someone who went through a lot because of the circumstances of her birth as Ross looked at her with surprised eyes.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoU9q1hgVZ9
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIqcc8vWVF
"Sorry about that....I shouldn't have shouted at you." Belladonna said after calming down and morphing back to human form.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEjk077VD7
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGO3UqvORu
"Apology accepted, I'm also sorry for my words, didn't mean to offend you."181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYymZeMPmW0
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbi3P8nTdki
"No problem. Anyway it's nice to meet a human that we don't have to glamour into forgetting about this. You're cool to Mickey, but I'm a social girl that likes to make new friends." Belladonna teased and Michael gave a thumbs up.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4BSJRVjRD
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXrqlzkl05
"Same. Well, I gotta get back and change. See you girls latter, Mickey, Jessie, Belladonna...everyone...bye." Ross said and started jogging again.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3upDePQUb9
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcCEnMc2sq
"See you later. And please call me Donna."181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEZsqAmSe5
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnFNYk18Mm
"Whatever you say Miss Belladonna."181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqY0dpR94bf
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9G845aWMYN
"Ross, toying with a vampire is never good for your health. So do as I say and call me Donna."181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6UfIQdmsU
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5eXhaNkB3
"As Miss Belladonna commands." Ross shouted with a smile on his face as Belladonna could not help but chuckle a bit.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ887ERrk8mA
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgNwioqtL9
And that was how an encounter with vampires ended, nothing like the stories, but weirder than fiction.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7434fEzLh
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPss8WinKC
"Wait, does that mean that this is all real?" Ross asked himself as he held up his medication and wondered whether this was confirmation.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOALP2hKld6
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuck3pvDE8G
After all if he was crazy and still seeing all of this despite being on pills, then either the pills where ineffective and this was all delusions or this was all real and he was just someone who noticed the supernatural.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoR6AZhfmq0
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyKYF9hjul
So he decided to go to the post office and mail some pills to a private lab in order to have them tested to see if they were real or just expensive flavorless tick tacks.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimwaAFSVdh
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrgVcw7k9V
All in all things seemed to be going according to his plan, he was getting stronger, managed to keep things peaceful, find answers to who he was and most important of all not become a characters in any of the crazy stories of the numerous supernatural inhabitants.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvtz7TbkoW
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXnSmrSwSl
As he walked down the lane back to his home, he was confident that everything was gonna be fine.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcgpaTNlNP
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQc6N2LwJc
And as he did so passed by the various denizens of Calliope, who were all heroes of their own story, noticed him.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduTnpC8qDj
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVu0AYrcuj
And made plans to investigate this 'strange' denizen of their town and his mystery.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaxF6Efl0n
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCP9eSTON9
And so Ross instead of getting involved in other's story, in avoiding that has become the protagonist of his own story that will attract the others.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANPumg9pOn
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fG6AW17yP
"Oh no." Ross said to himself as he realized and started to notice the various eyes on his person, but pretended that he didn't notice.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF67Vcicjv0
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKJrKPtp2G
As he did so he received a text from Hexen.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENWVSZGxbk
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGw1Hh4TsS
"Coffee and sweets so I can complain to you? XOXOXO." 181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcB2KGwYzQ3
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4M0XivnTf
"Oh no." Ross added again as he then felt the wind pick up a bit, that was never a good sign.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJAAXlkQJ1
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNRBjbQ9pw
Whenever a sudden gush of wind blew it was always a sign of impending chaos.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmuVRa7cND
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltAsG3TfCW
"Oh no, no, no, no." Ross said as he felt the world crash around him, he felt like everything was horrid.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSW9yIlymZ
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZkWwi6Op5
Teenage drama, the supernatural, impending doom, chaos with you as the epicenter, madness, vampires and dating.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstNBzXGmwf
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCrGATES14
Just another walk down this untroubled lane that Ross found himself on.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTI5dKmTYzd
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCrpBv2sGv
The bell rang there and then to signal the start of Highscool.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mMhHcZh1O
181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEywyGTBbVN
Just another day in Wonderland.181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1litaK8j7Z
