2024-10-29 19:42:56Dora and I made snacks and dinner for the games night beforehand so that we could just eat whenever we were hungry throughout the play. Mary usually only ate bits here and there so usually dinner on games night is something that you are able to eat without it getting cold and falling apart when you leave it for a while before returning to it.
I haven't seen or heard from Mary after the hug but I knew she would not go anywhere and join us for the games night tonight because she agreed to it and she seems to be happier these few days since the move. I did hear her in the study a little earlier so I assumed that she had been looking up where and what the town has to offer other than what she and Dora saw when they went shopping.
I know that she loves to go and sit in the library sometimes because the librarian from most of the other towns would call me and tell me that she had been sitting there reading for hours and that she was safe in case I had been worryi

Two years laterMary's P.O.VA whole week before it's my birthday. My sweet sixteen as it's more commonly known. I know Dad and Dora are planning something because they have been so secretive lately and each time I walked into the room they stopped talking only to continue with something that I really do not believe is what they were talking about beforehand.I already know what my wish is going to be when I get the chance to blow out the candles on my cake that Dad has never failed to make me. I'm going to wish that I do not blackout anymore and when I wake up I'm covered in blood and sometimes other human body parts. It's usually when Dad and I have had a run-in with each other when he doesn't want to let me go out with the little friends that I happen to make whenever we move to a new town.I really thought that the moving around would stop once I had gotten older but in fact, it had only caused it to get more frequent. I don't kno

Dad and Dora visibly relaxed after I told them what I thought they wanted to say to me. I knew this could not be the adventure planned for my birthday unless we would be having lunch on some mountainside somewhere. Dad must have seen me looking at the picnic basket because he chuckled before taking the basket and motioning for me and Dora to follow him. "This is not your birthday adventure. I just wanted to have a family picnic somewhere quiet before your friends take you away from home for their birthday celebrations that they probably would want to have with you. I don't only want to be able to spend time with you again on or even after your birthday." He could sometimes get so sentimental with me that I would be in tears. "Family outing. I got it. I want to go and get changed into some better shoes. Meet you guys outside?"Standing outside the kitchen door I listened to Dad and Dora talking again. Dad mentioned something to her that he would in fact be telling me today and that

Hearing the crunching of the leaves and the breaking of the branches sounding like a whole army heading our way had Dad and Dora worried as they had started packing up the basket and everything as fast as I had ever seen that happen."What is happening? What are you doing?""Pack we need to leave now."Still not sure why I needed to pack I started helping them get everything packed up."Run back home, get your to-go bags and get to the car as soon as possible. We need to get out of here and away before they catch up. If I am not back in the next ten minutes go without me and I'll try my best and meet up with you. The address to run to is in the car's glove compartment. Now go."Dad tried pushing me and Dora to run towards the house but I was not leaving him here alone to face the army that we could hear coming closer and closer with each passing second. Why had I been training all these years if I was just going to be pushed to ru

Ryder's P.O.V Hearing the crunching leaves and breaking branches alerted us that someone was coming and that they were coming fast. I knew it was not the people after Dora because she would have been incapacitated by now with how close they were to us. I knew it had to be either the rebellion or the royal guard. I didn't want Dora or Mary to be here to find out who it was along with me, so I had them go along to the car for so long. I could see Mary struggling to listen to me, and I had to force her gently to go along with Dora to the car, but it is for the best and for her best. If they would find her here with me they would have dragged her back after they had killed me and Dora and made her do their bidding if it was the rebellion and if it was the royal guard they would have done the same except they would not have dragged her back but they would have taken her back to her parents if they were still alive. After she had disappeared, they had closed off, and nobody had seen them i

I honestly don't know what I did to anger the moon goddess because she did not listen to my prayers. We had not gotten far away before the three were on our tails again. This time, they weren't being safe around Mary anymore, and they were doing whatever they felt was necessary to get her from the car. I didn't have the time to look back and make sure that she was safe and not scared out of her mind because one wrong move on my part could send us all to an early grave, if not lifelong imprisonment. They had shifted and were chasing us in their wolf forms, bumping against the car every once in a while, biting at the tyres making me swerve before getting back control. I could barely keep the car on the road as it was but with the nipping and everything, they were making it a lot more challenging to keep it steady. Just when it looked like they were backing off, one of them managed to get a good enough bite into the tyre and have it run flat. Not being able to continue with the flat

Dora's P.O.V Ryder left to go and make sure that there would be no werewolves here that would cause us trouble before he signed the lease for the house he had gotten us. The fact that we would only be able to occupy it in a few days because the owner said she was still getting it ready for renters was making me uneasy. I mean Ryder said that he had booked this place a while ago when he was working out the plan ahead of time so she knew there were people coming here to rent it so she could have made sure that she had it all ready before now. I just found it strange that she didn't make sure that the place would be done and ready when she had gotten the rent request from Ryder and accepted it from her side. It made me suspicious and I shared these with Ryder before he left and he said that he would check it out and make sure before we jumped to any conclusions. I agreed but that didn't mean that I would sit back and let him do everything on his own. I had my own ways of finding out i

Mary's P.O.V I didn't think that I had missed as much as I had missed while I was out but by listening to the story that Dora was telling me I did in fact miss a lot. We were even at the second location since the attack that dad was sidestepping the whole time. To be honest I felt better than what I remember feeling the last time with the doctor and his wife. I don't feel so scared and weak as I did with them and since I woke up on my own without the screams ringing through the whole room meant that hopefully, the nightmares would also not be present this time. Maybe it was the fact that I was older and understood more of what was going on in the world or maybe because in my heart I had started making peace with the fact that I was not normal and that the other people in my family were also not normal.

Mary's P.O.V I don't remember how long I was awake after we left, but I know it wasn't long. Car rides always made me sleepy, and in all the years, I have not once managed to stay awake long enough to see the whole trip. The calming sound of the tyres on the road just lulls me to sleep with its calming lullaby. Being shaken awake, out of my calming sense of sleep, wasn't something that I wanted. Smacking the hands away from me and murmuring for them to leave me alone also didn't seem to work because I was still shaken even after that. "Dora is picking the snacks alone, and we both know she doesn't have the best taste. You might want to go and help her." That had me awake almost immediately. She never chooses the speckled eggs and always goes for kale chips or something healthy and sugarless that has no taste at all. Smiling and eating it just to make her happy is what dad and I did, but for the last while it has been becoming increasingly more difficult. Jumping out of the car,

Ryder's P.O.V When Mary told me that she felt watched and followed from the library that had me worried already but when she told me that she had noticed the change in the attendants in some of the shops and someone told her to run I was glad that she was able to get home safely. I really want to meet that person who told her to run because I want to thank them for their help but she said that she didn't see who talked to her and that there wasn't anyone that she saw near her so she has no idea who talked to her. She mentioned that is why she said that it could have been something before she said someone. At the moment, I didn't care who or what it was, I was just really grateful that she was okay. The most important thing on my mind was to get everything packed up into the car and leave before there was the need for another fight. Mary didn't know who it was, and with that little knowledge gap she had because of me not telling her what she is and what actually exists, that could

"RUN!"I didn't have any time to think about the voice in my head because the tone of the voice just let me know that there was no space for argument and that if I didn't run I would regret it soon enough. I might not be feeling the eyes on me anymore but that didn't mean that they weren't lurking somewhere behind me. I didn't know whether I would be able to make it back home before whatever was chasing me caught up to me but I was hell-bent on getting there. Luckily I had the recently acquired speed on my side helping me zoom past everything faster than I have ever thought of running. I thought where would be the safest to stop and try and get into the house because I didn't want to struggle with the extremely solid front door that took forever to push open and I didn't leave any windows open when I left not thinking that I would need to make a quick entry into the house. Exiting the town square and entering the little clearing where the house is located I was so glad to see that

Mary's P.O.VWaking up I got the pendant out again fully intending to find out exactly what it was and what it means. I was hoping this would help me to be able to retrace my steps of last night and find out what had happened and in whose blood I was covered. I didn't want to let my imagination sore and think of random possibilities and scenarios because each one that I had come up with was more gruesome than the previous one and to be honest I was making myself both sick and scared.I didn't want to take it to Dory or dad because I didn't have a story to tell them about where I had gotten it and I didn't even have the energy to be creative enough to make up a story of how I had happened to get it into my possession. I had a feeling that telling them that I had picked it up on the street would not suffice and that they would not buy that story.Full well intending to go to the library and see what I could find out about the pendant, I had started my
