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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtXi4sukGu
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yshrsWJS2
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRUnTsh4h7
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBeM9R5WxE
Am I crazy for thinking that or not crazy for thinking that?239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPFQHgrRzS
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwADCAqHC1
Guess we'll find out soon as another day comes.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqgfxeJc5G

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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdQSYYjyyW
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfg6fCubQm
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSEGtNaH2n
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcd9B5x81Qf
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWbZegxfXp
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAO56RF7aoU
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCroWEtsnnr
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCsP0RDZxJ
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvVwxO3Uty
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1ayj1o3FW
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZC6RNEr89L
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQY0ULIBD5V
How could the world forget about magic?239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAHYnQmmHL
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2OJbww2Py
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9AVFgqiGQ
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy7w4nuwRV
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6E6r3VaFM9
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgdHvT8oIJ
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlc01k09CU
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkT1QDnALK
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLw0kC5zoc
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNJXe47sDA
"This is by far the most unique hallucination that I've ever had up until now."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU7znvuQpm
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvohOR423hq
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTfWFUyxeX
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTh9U7ru6B
"You know me?"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujubvZsAS1
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeghdeoCRb
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9L7aZFFbce
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvq9U1qHMyB
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTosmeLJJy8
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpyyuhk1LP
"And yet there's no fear. Why is that? Don't you think that vampires are reason enough to fear." The leader asked.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJ3dIi97Hp
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PMUjGtZ0S
"Why? You don't kill." Ross said and the group of vampires did a double take.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnqjsfEOs9
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5CTvgA3um
"H-how did you know that?" The blonde vampire next to the leader said.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgy57atZUbh
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzTim89Flx
"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."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OtBvzUmfB
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaexbJWFtW
At that the leader gave a smile and light clap of her hands.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx255AQrMKT
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8f6lNce95
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFI2eAVKVxS
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpISgFNbaoI
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDH0hyy96XN
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfMrPSr1V6
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqTnWpHS1b
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLYEfdaHTn
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1Zfk71AbV
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheurzDQ06P
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8k9dY7L4j
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUOtlkqXrY
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlbw4t70zC
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVCPdCAvwh
"You're dating?" Ross asked in surprise.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7foN1YcVLU
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSI4cFnHyg
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLb6Vf5csgK
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeD7UJBPtqp
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBhmLYASZU
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLktpEU7Yo
"No, I'm just a muggle." Ross replied.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTx5vo61iuv
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bYvwTSmsj
"How are you taking this so calmly?"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVUmZwOEWC
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3M2Qm63TCh
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tny4GwUwu
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3hKAYVXZJ
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7TSCkTHwN
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UQvfY5Wdq
"Sorry about that....I shouldn't have shouted at you." Belladonna said after calming down and morphing back to human form.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQBuc0HTWI
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0r5pTUGJx
"Apology accepted, I'm also sorry for my words, didn't mean to offend you."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8689rj8FU
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsO2kgTVi8s
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmej5kmX60x
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwZeJk6Oak
"Same. Well, I gotta get back and change. See you girls latter, Mickey, Jessie, Belladonna...everyone...bye." Ross said and started jogging again.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNkMhdMlGd
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpaI0EgZ3F
"See you later. And please call me Donna."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFRh6FUIkP
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOluVUsJmBS
"Whatever you say Miss Belladonna."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOehLHX5cb
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEEsdUsKxv
"Ross, toying with a vampire is never good for your health. So do as I say and call me Donna."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYK3mfgI6xi
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Gqtugp3oU
"As Miss Belladonna commands." Ross shouted with a smile on his face as Belladonna could not help but chuckle a bit.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqk33BYhPX
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SQIHOrIwy
And that was how an encounter with vampires ended, nothing like the stories, but weirder than fiction.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqexsDUZhBI
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcs3mbXoVxT
"Wait, does that mean that this is all real?" Ross asked himself as he held up his medication and wondered whether this was confirmation.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6XOBIZ0wY
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7aI5eTS8r
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbzk2zvbip
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUgAEshg4I
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzKsM7gFXl
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArzDyKnQwi
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlf9bHRnZF
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Y8G6y7uKJ
As he walked down the lane back to his home, he was confident that everything was gonna be fine.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZk38VNpq2
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlf1UoNDdis
And as he did so passed by the various denizens of Calliope, who were all heroes of their own story, noticed him.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7szCZ428i
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeGcQ1gEm8
And made plans to investigate this 'strange' denizen of their town and his mystery.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepSOLPvbFd
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBd6YaktGE
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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dd7MGA6bA
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uYa4auzHd
"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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRht834jAy
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1k8xKxg7nM
As he did so he received a text from Hexen.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLb1ZXluiP
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3Tg2IR0Lu
"Coffee and sweets so I can complain to you? XOXOXO." 239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrwkqPTlyl
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTE4Qg51H3G
"Oh no." Ross added again as he then felt the wind pick up a bit, that was never a good sign.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVBDWfNM7V
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt0apxhGkf
Whenever a sudden gush of wind blew it was always a sign of impending chaos.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGRloJ9iHX
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq38e7Sebt
"Oh no, no, no, no." Ross said as he felt the world crash around him, he felt like everything was horrid.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc5GZeg9LO
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjybxxYUUh
Teenage drama, the supernatural, impending doom, chaos with you as the epicenter, madness, vampires and dating.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydYyu7Y9bn
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4SU2hZoUk
Just another walk down this untroubled lane that Ross found himself on.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJp4Uzs8QmU
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5pgVRgN5W
The bell rang there and then to signal the start of Highscool.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0ZBI20k7C
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtX9hJDzwbx
Just another day in Wonderland.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeJUOpKeYk
