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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SGrHsJo9x
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IVJjfNLDi
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡks9cBwcrOa
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2e4GjF68G
Am I crazy for thinking that or not crazy for thinking that?182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvGfq3Tbod
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe6OwTr3DS
Guess we'll find out soon as another day comes.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4N9we0dif

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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGP4JwGg1K
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKiKOpbeTQ
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQ3c9VO7PH
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlWSCAFcZj
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWYk6hT9uK
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNww4LQcavr
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaajEvGXXv
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2GVw5PoVf
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RLewCndBC
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Sofl7FmjR
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLRrXeQ4ZL
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aP1QBqPF0
How could the world forget about magic?182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4iYhFUjqC
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBbG3T8GcW
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oXTjNncCa
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDHrpinPM1
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH12d4tVfGz
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQ1WJg4XN2
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGzMBtX7vK
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpJOd0wxJ3
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZa02c5H51K
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhlLIGpY27
"This is by far the most unique hallucination that I've ever had up until now."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrvCY1a5Nt
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7s5j2RThW
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7JMuCbIsY
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oeN3xXmZz
"You know me?"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKa9Hgt6kSy
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YQGOVxupb
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo31uQLbxXR
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiM0MMf6bxC
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFZNscZOnN
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2VweKfH7v
"And yet there's no fear. Why is that? Don't you think that vampires are reason enough to fear." The leader asked.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjejg9NpQtn
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kwoBMwXki
"Why? You don't kill." Ross said and the group of vampires did a double take.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0MgrkiRRN
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlI2BzmgBFU
"H-how did you know that?" The blonde vampire next to the leader said.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2LMIKT2ZK
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BEmnCGLAB
"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."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGivYQio4HK
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ir0UxFLcV
At that the leader gave a smile and light clap of her hands.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnJjbhYiil
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2wQGDMNTe
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPuojdWOpN
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3CvJPz3Fz
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsKbLjACt7
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4cAJfyAYY
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5M3y06pE7
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18f7uy6yL4
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOb58JjVdn9
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2Hcmw42Rm
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OailU3FET
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEEp8SJpTK
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87rGuetw0V
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20P4qemqzM
"You're dating?" Ross asked in surprise.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3Ocu72iC6
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMKvrYxQjM
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVdNnOgpRT
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcQn3Hougb
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kBdUMF9s3
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF7LIPZWO6
"No, I'm just a muggle." Ross replied.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1PVtbQpvH
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l8dBmSre5
"How are you taking this so calmly?"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKjvipTHTm
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEzjDCtBX2
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdEYJY1xyN
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlJPHmuqm9
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00lXlV854Y
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKqD7tn6Qw
"Sorry about that....I shouldn't have shouted at you." Belladonna said after calming down and morphing back to human form.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfCfX4Zzcd
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7DNeZfQqV
"Apology accepted, I'm also sorry for my words, didn't mean to offend you."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyjdUMFI15
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkuBoOcrzp
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3SzNTQQbO
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60MYEOdZrM
"Same. Well, I gotta get back and change. See you girls latter, Mickey, Jessie, Belladonna...everyone...bye." Ross said and started jogging again.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8eEBPpCtk
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxQVz70JAN
"See you later. And please call me Donna."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7TWZWYU3k
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTlsCLBrNU
"Whatever you say Miss Belladonna."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfcxb0AABR
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzqDyBar40
"Ross, toying with a vampire is never good for your health. So do as I say and call me Donna."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡougvolAtnv
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEraAa6G3UQ
"As Miss Belladonna commands." Ross shouted with a smile on his face as Belladonna could not help but chuckle a bit.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFAoQfDals
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObe7cmKZwd
And that was how an encounter with vampires ended, nothing like the stories, but weirder than fiction.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81dWMclSQF
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteBzodynzQ
"Wait, does that mean that this is all real?" Ross asked himself as he held up his medication and wondered whether this was confirmation.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDWIB4Roeh
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS9YH4iwmU
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIhCQaZ3cC
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfekBHwgdX6
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77WDmQ9XYa
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6iDwWiz8g
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMquq2tuYv
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftKP8nIAJ9
As he walked down the lane back to his home, he was confident that everything was gonna be fine.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eEn4OXq8V
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPay6udX5a
And as he did so passed by the various denizens of Calliope, who were all heroes of their own story, noticed him.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTQj3fwaum
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wbTIc8tBU
And made plans to investigate this 'strange' denizen of their town and his mystery.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOdIy9GdEg
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHMOgeqeHp
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK32fx8e8DX
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5y9utFpwhi
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwtaixqfwh
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMFu9LF0WO
As he did so he received a text from Hexen.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8thvNtdheq
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVt16xCcCev
"Coffee and sweets so I can complain to you? XOXOXO." 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3viBXIhCre
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIs98Q2vVOE
"Oh no." Ross added again as he then felt the wind pick up a bit, that was never a good sign.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0W9pcAIhL9
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQAyNZBGQ6
Whenever a sudden gush of wind blew it was always a sign of impending chaos.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLnjzSzlsV
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84e1VzZj7I
"Oh no, no, no, no." Ross said as he felt the world crash around him, he felt like everything was horrid.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbn8eOoHrKu
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSftcTcdq3
Teenage drama, the supernatural, impending doom, chaos with you as the epicenter, madness, vampires and dating.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwS0rHCUsx3
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVKuHi56a1
Just another walk down this untroubled lane that Ross found himself on.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpdJ4eSznu
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OsZYcQFPZ
The bell rang there and then to signal the start of Highscool.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iOfJRiirY
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTe9T9PYP8
Just another day in Wonderland.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaoIAWdkzF
