I woke up wednesday morning and met Kelly downstairs. She had her arms crossed over her chest and the remote in one hand.
"What were you thinking?! Going to a bar in the middle of the night and killing a man in front af a news crew?!" She yelled.
"Thats just it. I wasn't." I admitted. I looked at the tv screen and saw myself on the news as "Phsycotic Demon Boy terrorizes county bar". I sighed and gathered my things and walked to school instead of taking the bus. When I opened my locker I found a note on top of my books. I grabbed it and opened it up to read it.

We need to talk, Jesse. I'm getting worried about you.
Meet me and Sydney at our usaul spot by the tree in
the garden at lunch.
-Claire.

I sighed and balled up the paper and want to class.

"Are you ok, Jesse?" Claire asked. She was leaning against the tree when I arrived.
"Does it look like I'm ok?" I snapped. She sighed and took a step towards me. She stepped in front of Sydney trying to hide her.
"We can help you with what you're going through." She said.
"We? Claire, no one can help me! Don't you understand that?!" Tears filled her eyes and Sydney stood up.
"I know Claire can't help. But I can try." She said softly. I stepped back and stared at Claire's red face. The sun came out from behind the clouds and hit my back making me glisten under the tree. She smiled and gave Claire a hug. The bell rang and I turned and headed towards Mythology class. I sat in my desk and crossed my arms.
"Ok, class. I'll come by to pick up your essays while you settle in." He said. After 10 minutes flew by he clapped his hands.
"I've got a surprise for you. I'm gonna come around and hand it to you." He grabbed a red velvet bag and walked around the class. He was handing people mythical creatures. That's not possible. He came to me and pulled out a black thorned dragon pierced my skin as he put it in my hand.
"A Black Thorned Dragon. A very rare creature and the mosy deadly." He said with a smile. I gave him a strange look as he went to talk to one of the girls. Claire crossed the room to me.
"You got a dragon? Lucky. I got a stupid mermaid. I'm naming her Sapphire." She said. "What are you naming yours?" She asked. The thornes on the back glowed red and then purple as he jumped onto the desk.
"Sufferthorne." I whipered. She busted out laughing.
"That's a stupid name." She giggled.
"So is Sapphire." I said flatly. She stopped laughing and walked to Sydney who had a fairy. Sufferthorne malted onto my arm becoming a tattoo of a Black Bloody Rose. I examined it closely and smiled.
"Cool. I didn't have to pay for one." I said to myself. The final bell rang and I dashed through the door.
"Hey vampire boy." Sam cackled. I turned to him.
"What'd you call me?" I asked.
"Was I speaking too fast for yo-." I punched him in the throat and pinned him to the ground with my foot.
"Don't ever call me that or I swear I will kill you." I snarled. He nodded and started coughing. I smiled and went home.
