The afternoon class proceeded with combat basics, and the evening classes Cristal decided to be joining the vampire training hall. She could learn about the werewolves training from his father but for the vampire it was a new world.
Time flew by with some students naturally awakening their abilities and moving up the class rank , but Cristal stayed in the same class, the lowest F .
The three kindred can unlock their abilities before the age of 12 but those who fail to a ritual is performed to awaken them. The ritual awakening were weaker compared to naturally awakening, this could even cause complications ,like fail wolf reverse transformation for werewolves, unstable mind for vampires or a witch could be attacked by their own spell.
"Dad , what if I can't awaken any of my abilities," Cristal who was now ten years old asked his dad.
"You will you are quite special remember,"Oliver tried cheering her up.
"Dad, I will be left alone in class 4F, "only two kids remained the lowest class Cristal and a girl and she had heard that she had partially awakened her powers during a full moon.This put Cristal at the bottom of the ladder.
Else where Malik had walked home from school he was old enough to walk, and didn't have to wait for Maya to pick him up.
Malik set the bag on the floor and headed for the fridge, "am starving, "he said.
Malik open the fridge only to find it empty, "damn, he said picking his phone to tell his mother to grab food on her way back," I can't wait for her to cook,"he thought
He opened the freezer to grab an ice cream, "that should lie to my stomach ,and stop the glowling"he said grabbing a wrapped ice cream. He was almost closing the door when something caught his eyes.
"This are the juice mom takes everyday, I wonder how they taste,"curiosity picked. He picked one and headed for the table ,switching on the tv, he took a sit and open the lid of the pack .
"It's smells like blood, "he said as a smell reached his nose. He pinched his nose and took a big gulp, he dropped the pack as a Surge of energy entered his body ,he dropped to his knees as a excruciating pain spread all over it felt like his bones were being broken and rearranged, fresh torn and rearranged , Malik lost conscious.
The watch in Malik's hand could be seen glitching, after a few moment it rebooted . The watch now displayed his full holistic profile, capturing data from vital signs to cellular activity a complete picture of his physical and internal state.
In the werewolves territory a girl could be seen on top of a tree , Cristal climbed the tree close to her house to enjoy the view. It was breath taking as the sun set. But today she didn't get to enjoy it, as she settled at her favorite spot , a pain in her chest was felt , and slowly a blinding pain overwhelmed her, she screamed loosing conscious, dropping to the ground.
Cristal fall had broken her arm and leg . Oliver who had heard the scream arrived to find his daughter on the ground. "Noo," Oliver screamed, Cristal didn't have his healing abilities, she healed so slow that a cut had to be stitched to close.
A movement from Cristal made Oliver move closer, She was shaking, he picked her and played her in her bed ,the shaking had gotten severe but now they were coming to a stop.
"Are you okay, "Oliver asked looking at her.She nodded, sitting up.
"Cristal lay down,"he said still worried.
"Am okay ,I feel great actually," she said standing up.
"What happened, "he asked.
"Something inside me woke up, first it felt like a familiar part of me and then it spread to me ," Oliver looked confused.
"You mean something awoke externally and it spread to you internally,"he asked trying to understand his daughters explanation.
"Yes, " she answered
Oliver was still lost when his eyes looked at her daughter standing," your leg, arm," he said realization hitting him ."You have awoken your," Oliver started then realized he didn't know what ability her daughter had awoken, .if it was a normal child he would have had a clue, but with Cristal being a hybrid, two genes were a possibility.
"Hope it werewolves abilities,"Oliver silently prayed.werewolves also had super healing abilities .
Oliver didn't wait long ,to figure out her daughter's awakened powers, as she moved across the room in an instant, Cristal had attended all vampire training lessons, she had learnt a lot ,and she could already tell she was one now.
" vampire, seems I will be visiting my father,"he murmured,
"Yeah, we are going to grampa's," Cristal cheered as she jumped up and down with hands in the air.
"Huhh!," Oliver's mouth was agape, he had whispered to himself but Cristal had heard it across the room.
Else where Malik woke up after a few minutes, he looked at the mess on the floor, "Mom, will kill me," he thought, getting up to retrieve something to clean the blood, he hurried,but was on the floor in the next minute, he had moved so far hitting his body on wall sending him stumbling.
"What the, "he almost cursed when a sound of a car pulling over , jolted back." Ohh no,"He stood up and retrieved the cloth. He quickly wiped the mess , he had made.
Malik grabbed the food his mother had bought him, he could feel a slight pang of hunger, the smell of food didn't smell as delicious as before, even the taste was off. He forced a mouthful down his throat, but it was immediately forced back up.Malik had to share a meal with his mother instead.
"Keep it down,"Malik was woken up by noises ,it was from their neighbors as they got early for work. He put his headphones on as he prepared for school, he wasn't as sleepy , it was a first with how good the morning sleep was .
Malik sat in his class room, he could hear everyone talking, all at once he closed his ears with his hands , the voices were bearly blocked,"shut up," he said out loud. The class fell silent, then a bust of laughter was heard.
Maya picked Malik from school, the administration had called her, Malik was screaming and crying.
"Is he going insane?,"someone asked
"Maybe he is sick,"a friend offered
"Which disease cause you to scream like that,"questioned another
"Pain,"replied Trent. He was Malik's best friend.
