Plan A,B and CAstrid stood appeared in the shadows of Zakira’s new hideout, a derelict mansion far removed from prying eyes. Claud, Lupa, Lycidas, and Zakaria were gathered around a makeshift table, pouring over maps and plans. The tension in the room was palpable, the air thick with the weight of their collective worry and determination. When Astrid stepped forward, her usually radiant aura seemed dimmed by the news she bore.“You made it,” Claud said, relief flooding his voice. “We were starting to worry.”Astrid managed a faint smile. “I’m afraid I bring troubling news. The council has ruled in favor of the arbiter. I have one week before they imprison me for ten thousand years.”A stunned silence fell over the room. Lycidas was the first to break it. “We can’t let that happen. There has to be a way to overturn their decision.”Astrid shook her head slowly. “The council is rarely swayed once they’ve made a ruling. The only way to change their minds is to prove that the arbiter’s i

The Broadcast of DoomClaud and the others made their way back to Verdant. The journey was quiet, each lost in their thoughts, contemplating the gravity of the mission ahead. They arrived at Verdant a few minutes later. Claud’s mother, Tara Wolf, received the news that Claud was around so she went to welcome him as she hadn’t seen him in some time. “Mom, we need to talk,” Claud said, his voice tinged with urgency.Tara’s eyes widened as she took in the group, her gaze lingering on Zakira. “Claud, why have you brought a vampire into our home?” she asked, her voice sharp with suspicion.“Mom, it’s okay,” Claud reassured her. “Zakira is on our side. We need her.”Lycidas stepped forward, his tone calm and measured. “Mrs. Wolf, I understand your concerns, but Zakira has proven herself to be a valuable ally. We need to trust each other if we’re going to stop the arbiter.”Tara’s eyes flicked between Lycidas and Zakira before she nodded reluctantly. “Very well, but she is your responsibili

The Battle Begins“You’re not worth my time,” the arbiter scoffed, looking down at them with disdain. “You’re like mosquitoes to me. Vampires, take them down.”The arbiter’s army surged forward, fangs bared and eyes glowing with hunger. Claud and his team braced themselves, ready to unleash their newfound powers. The night air crackled with tension as the battle began.Claud took a deep breath, feeling the power of the elements coursing through him. “Time to show these bloodsuckers what we’re made of,” he said, grinning at his friends.“Finally, some action,” Lycidas said, twirling his fingers as sparks of magic danced around them. “I was starting to think this was going to be a boring night.”Zakaria was a blur of motion, her new super speed making her faster than the eye could follow. She darted between the vampires, delivering lightning-fast blows that left them reeling.“Try to keep up!” she called over her shoulder, her voice filled with playful challenge.Lupa summoned water an

The arbiter emerged from the portal, shaking off the disorientation. He glared at Lycidas, fury burning in his eyes. “You think your tricks can stop me?”Lycidas smirked. “They’ve worked so far.” He waved his hand, slowing time just enough to give Claud and Zakira a chance to get into position.Claud disappeared into the shadows again, reappearing behind the arbiter and delivering a powerful kick that sent him stumbling forward. As the arbiter tried to regain his balance, Zakira blurred into motion, her super speed allowing her to land a flurry of punches and kicks.“You’re fast, but not fast enough!” she taunted, dodging his attempts to strike back.The arbiter growled in frustration, raising his hand to summon a burst of energy. Claud quickly conjured a shadow barrier, absorbing the blast and protecting his team. “We’re not done yet!” Claud shouted, launching himself at the arbiter.The arbiter blocked Claud’s attack and countered with a punch that Claud barely managed to dodge.

New beginnings“I’m a celestial. I can go anywhere I want.”“Of course you can. I know you’re here because of me…”“Wait, listen.”“I know I acted rashly, I’ll take whatever punishment comes my way.”“Shut up and listen.”“Sorry for interrupting, your radiance.”“The council went through the evidence you brought again and went down to earth to question the vampires.”“By question, you mean torture until they give you the information you need?”“We have to do what we have to do to get what we need, no matter how unorthodox.”“So what did you learn?”“You were right. He was planning on using the vampires to enslave the humans. He wasn’t searching for balance, he wanted control. Don’t worry, he’ll be punished adequately for his crimes.”“That’s good to hear. So what happens to me?”“The council agreed that what you did was impulsive, reckless and could have easily thrown everything we’ve worked so hard to maintain into jeopardy…”“But I…”“Hush. I wasn’t finished. But seeing that we’d ne

Kids...Twenty years had past since the whole incident with the arbiter, the council and Astrid. The whole world forgot the incident like it never happened. The only people who knew about the existence of supernatural beings were the supernatural beings themselves.Claud and Lupa started a family. They had a son who was now seventeen and was in high school and a daughter who was thirteen. They never told them their family history. Damien and Clary didn’t know that they weren’t humans. Claud was able to convince Lupa to wait till their eighteenth birthday before telling them because a normal werewolf wouldn’t see signs of their powers until that age. There are few exceptions of that law though. Some werewolves see their powers bloom earlier while others see theirs bloom sooner. An early bloomer was rare to come by so Claud and Lupa felt they had all the time in the world before having to tell their children about their background. “Good morning dad.” Damien greeted.“Morning bud.

AmnesiaDamien’s POVI left for school earlier than I usually do today because I needed space to think. Why did I wake up suddenly by 3am? I wasn’t having a nightmare. I didn’t feel like urinating. I just woke up. For no reason at all. Could it be related to the fact that we’re about to uncover a secret that Riverdale high is hiding? Could they be trying to throw us off track? I have to meet Lydia. She’s smart. She should be able to assist me in understanding everything that is going on.Speak of the devil. As I was just thinking of meeting up with Lydia, I saw her walking to school too.“Hey Lydia. How’s it going?”“Just chilling. Surprised at how our study session went yesterday.”“Study session?” I asked, puzzled. Was she using the word “study” like I did severally yesterday? “We didn’t study yesterday. Yeah we made you think we wanted to study but when we met, we ended up playing truth or dare. Remember the theories we came up with concerning Mr. Thompson’s disappearance?”“Disapp

From my new hiding spot, I peered through the slats of the closet door. The teacher was now rifling through some papers on the lounge table, completely unaware of my presence. But they were too close to the door. If they left, they’d have to walk right past me.I bit my lip, glancing around the cramped closet. There was a small gap under the window on the other side of the room, barely big enough to crawl through if I was careful. It was my only way out.I took a deep breath and waited. The teacher lingered for what felt like an eternity, flipping through documents, muttering something to themselves. My legs ached from crouching so long, but I didn’t dare move.Finally, the teacher let out a sigh and stood, walking toward the door. My pulse quickened. I couldn’t be seen leaving, not now, not after coming so close. As the door clicked shut behind them, I wasted no time. I crawled out of the closet and dashed toward the window. With shaky hands, I pried it open just enough to squeeze t

As Seraphiel and Orionis floated into the sky, Orionis glanced at Seraphiel with curiosity. “Why didn’t you take away Damien’s powers? That was the price for Matilda’s life, wasn’t it?”Seraphiel smiled, his gaze fixed on the stars above. “I saw something in him. There’s no one more deserving of the title of the chosen one than Damien.”Orionis chuckled softly, nodding in agreement. “I suppose you’re right.”“Just don’t tell Astrid yet. I hate it when she’s right. She’ll rub it in my face.”With that, the two celestial beings ascended higher, their forms disappearing into the night sky, leaving behind only the faint shimmer of their presence.The wind was harsh against Damien’s face as he walked back home. The air heavy with the scent of rain. The sky was an inky black, clouds hanging low, blotting out the moon and stars. A faint drizzle started to fall, tapping lightly on the ground, and he pulled his coat higher on his shoulder. His boots crunched against the gravel as he strolled

The end?The family of four walked slowly through the familiar streets of Riverdale, but this time, it all felt different. The trees seemed taller, the air crisper, as if the town itself had transformed while they were gone. Claud glanced at the cobblestone streets, feeling a sense of nostalgia pull at him. It was as if each house they passed, each flower blooming in a neighbor’s yard, held a memory waiting to be rediscovered. Lupa’s hand brushed against his, her eyes flicking around, taking it all in with a quiet smile. They hadn’t been gone for long, not even up to a week but somehow, coming back made it feel like an eternity had passed.Damien, walking just behind them, was unusually silent. Normally full of chatter, he now took in everything with wide eyes, as if seeing their hometown for the first time. Clary had fallen behind to inspect a cluster of daisies on the roadside, twirling one between her fingers before skipping back to the group.When they finally reached the fami

The Challenge of the ChosenDay 4As dawn broke on the fourth day, the sun’s rays pierced through the thick canopy, casting dappled patterns on the forest floor. The air was crisp, and the sounds of chirping birds filled the space around them. They packed up their campsite, the smell of charred wood still lingering in the air, a remnant of the stories shared around the campfire.After a quick breakfast of rations, they set off once more, feeling a renewed sense of purpose. Wulfric led the way, his expression serious as he felt the shift in energy around them.“Today will be different,” he warned, his voice low. “The trials will test the chosen one in ways we haven’t encountered yet. The challenge ahead will require not just strength but also wisdom and courage.”“How do you know so much about the chosen one and these trials?” Damien asked.“I’ve been studying these things for a long time because I’ve always craved having a place that we wouldn’t have to hide but be free to be ourselv

Journey to the unknown IIDay 3The morning fog hung thickly in the air, enveloping the forest in an eerie shroud. Unlike the gentle morning mist that usually lifted with the sun, this fog felt heavy and charged with ancient energy, as if the very trees were watching them. Each footstep Damien took sank slightly into the ground, a reminder of the trials ahead, testing their resolve as they ventured deeper into the woods.He glanced at his companions. Claud moved ahead, ever vigilant, his sharp gaze scanning their surroundings. Tara walked closely beside him, her posture alert and tense.“This feels different today,” Damien muttered under his breath.“It is,” Wulfric replied, glancing back. “We’re getting close.”As they continued, the path twisted and changed, narrowing in some places while expanding in others, as though the forest was shifting to confuse them. The trees seemed almost alive, their bark rippling subtly, pulsating with a rhythm that hinted at something deeper below.“Ke

Journey to the unknown.Day 1The pack moved in near silence as they walked through the dense forest, the only sounds being the crunch of leaves beneath their boots and the occasional rustle of branches in the wind. The forest was alive with the sounds of nocturnal creatures, though none seemed to draw near. The air was cool, and the smell of damp earth and pine needles lingered as they pushed deeper into the woods.Damien led the way, Wulfric walking close beside him, while Claud, Tara, Lupa, and Clary flanked the rest of the pack. Wolves prowled in their animal forms, eyes glowing faintly in the shadows, while others remained human, their hands never far from their weapons.The further they walked, the more the forest seemed to change. The trees grew taller, their trunks wider and older, and strange glowing fungi dotted the bases of the trees, casting eerie light across the ground. The pack moved cautiously, alert but undeterred.After several hours of walking, the group suddenly c

ReunionsDamien moved through the dense forest, his footsteps muffled by the thick bed of leaves underfoot. The trees stood tall and imposing around him, their branches twisting like gnarled fingers above his head. Sunlight flickered through the canopy, casting scattered patches of light that danced across the forest floor. The air was cool and fresh, carrying the earthy scent of moss and pine. Every now and then, the sound of a rustling branch or distant bird call made his heart race, but he pushed the anxiety aside, determined to keep moving.The deeper he ventured, the more familiar the path became. He had been here before—just days ago. This was where he had encountered Wulfric, the mysterious figure who had saved his life and then disappeared into the woods. But Wulfric was more than just a savior. He was family. Damien’s grandfather, though that fact had only recently come to light. And now, after days of wrestling with the truth and the destiny Wulfric had spoken of, Damie

Hovering above him, Damien loomed closer, his eyes glowing brighter with every second, his chest heaving with the intensity of his anger. Stephan spat blood onto the ground, a faint smile curling on his lips despite the pain. “I guess… anger really does take a werewolf’s power to the next level,” he muttered, wiping more blood from his lip. His gaze sharpened as he stared at Damien’s cold, unyielding eyes. “But if you want a real fight… let’s make it more interesting.” With that, Stephan reached for the Eldershard crystal that hung from his neck. As his fingers curled around the amulet, the crystal pulsed with an ancient power. It began to glow, its silver light expanding outward, wrapping around Stephan like a cocoon. The energy crackled and surged through his body, and he let out a guttural growl as the crystal’s power fused with his very essence. The air around him began to shimmer, distorting with the raw energy being unleashed. Stephan’s injuries disappeared in an inst

Phase Three II Matilda soared through the sky, her heart pounding as she pushed herself to fly faster. The wind whipped through her hair, but her mind was focused on one thing: the Eldershard crystal. It was the key to everything—the only thing that could stop Stephan from carrying out his plan. Her father was fast, but she was determined to get there first. The hidden location was nestled deep within a mountain range, shielded by ancient magic. As Matilda approached, she spotted the faint glimmer of the crystal tucked away in the crevice of a towering rock. Without hesitation, she landed and reached for it. The moment her fingers brushed against the Eldershard, a surge of energy pulsed through her, warm and familiar. She held the crystal in her hands, feeling its immense power thrumming beneath the surface. It shimmered like a captured star, glowing with an otherworldly light. But before she could fully absorb its energy, a voice echoed from behind her. “Matilda.” S

After the meeting concluded, Orionis accompanied two celestial guards as they descended into the depths of the celestial prison. The shimmering hallways were lined with ethereal runes designed to keep even the most powerful beings contained.At the far end of the prison stood a door, shimmering with protective wards. The guards exchanged glances before opening it, revealing Stephan, the former arbiter, sitting in the dimly lit cell. His form was diminished, but his eyes still burned with an intensity that suggested his power had never truly faded.The guards unbound him, their expressions filled with distrust. As they stepped back, Orionis remained, his gaze locked on Stephan.The moment the guards were out of sight, Stephan stood and stretched, his joints cracking in the silence. He turned to Orionis with a smirk that sent a chill down the Stellar Guardian’s spine.“Phase two, complete,” Stephan said, his voice dripping with satisfaction.Orionis stiffened, his galaxies swirling in
