"I have been trying to sell this sword on ebay for a month now, and they still think that it's a fake." Zander exclaimed, leaning back into his comfortable chair in frustration.1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡronVuSdCOC
"I did get an offer for the spellbook, but the price they offered was too low." Blair frowned, waving her feet in the air. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNWhvRyfIi
Zander solemnly closed the tab, trying to think of ways to sell the old sword. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09t3pWNWFO
They had found some amazing collections when they were visiting Blair's grandmother's house. Actually, chests and shelves filled with old, and valuable things. Blair didn't bother asking her Grandmother where in the world she had obtained such things, and decided to take it to sell.1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUe41qBVFJ
"I really wanted the PS4 too." Zander frowned even more, and grabbed one of the old comics out from his overcrowded bookshelf, and began reading it. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXkF1vfjP1
"You still up for building the Star Wars Death Star tomorrow?" Blair asked, not looking up from her book. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJZFxSRUFv
"Mh-hm. It's not like I have anything better to do." Zander responded, still worried about the sale of the old sword. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNgiCwJSxZ
They read whatever was in their hands in silence. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLhC4AFYAI
They usually hanged out like this. Blair on Zander's bed, reading a book and Zander reading something from his bookshelf. They didn't care that their conversation was at a minimum, they just wanted to be with each other, to be in each other's presence. At least until one of their parents called. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmMFG9gcEw
A loud alarm blared from Blair's backpocket, her mother's ringtone. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjJyKjtonh
Blair immediately answered, 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSNFdZ206O
"Hello?" 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9c4vnoj9T
"你会来吧" Blair's mother answered in mandarin. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpqHsw0ZSX
"Okay, I will be back in like a minute." Blair hung up and got up to leave. "Bye, see you at school." Blair took her small backpack that she always took whenever she visited with her. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjWxBKTRyD
"Bye." Zander gave her a small wave before she shut the door.
Considering the fact that their school is just a ten minute walk from where they lived, they had always walked together since high school had started. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8F9fHumz9
Both of them took all honors classes, although Blair regretted taking Biology and History. On the other hand, Zander had been delighted to take Biology. He had always been fascinated with the creatures that lived on this planet, always been curious about them. He was the more outdoorsy one out of the duo, and in his free time he would bike to the trail to admire it's beauty. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y8SFn8nCc
Blair only went outside when it was necessary. When they were younger, Zander would call her a vampire, for refusing to go outside during the summer. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyX6tXoQeS
During sixth period, when they had lunch, they would always sit together. Just like when they were in elementary. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4F6Od1zoT
"Hey, Zander!" Marissa, who is, of course, the queen bee of the school. Everyone in the school knew her, and they did not follow her, unlike in the movies, Marissa is actually very polite and kind hearted. "Are you still up for the party this Friday?" She gave him a sweet smile, no malice intentions of seducing him. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiAsSH9XOm
"Oh, yeah, of course. Thanks for the invite too, I forgot to thank you." Zander returned a smile. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VAY8JUAtE
"You can come too, Blair." Marissa looked at Blair. Blair knew she meant no harm, and that Marissa genuinely meant it but she did not want to go to any social event.1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj58jk8ZksR
She hated them, the school. She hated that people only became kind to them when Zander became 'hot'. And how just a year ago, they would bully them, mock them. Blair hated that her classmates all of a sudden changed once they started to notice Zander. No matter how polite or inviting they were, Blair would never forget the awful comments they made when they were in middle school. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp69tfZdrnr
"No thanks, I got plans that night." Blair kindly declined and Marissa only gave Blair a grin before walking to her lunch table, her long blonde hair swaying behind her. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdqRQcfM6C
Zander turned his head to look at Blair, his eyebrows raised so high that they were lost within his curly locks of golden brown. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TZn39LOl8
"Plans? We both know that you have nothing to do that day other than reading." Zander called her out. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwpurqArZ6
Blair only gave him a shrug, biting into her ham sandwich. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIOkObrsj2
"Just didn't want to go."1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdx4Ab8bnz
"Blair, c'mon. This will be our first party in highschool, you don't want to experience the joy of a party?" Zander playfully pushed her. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvwHSfUXPd
She rolled her eyes, "The only parties I enjoy going to are book parties. Besides, there will probably be drugs and alcohol at the party. My mother would not let me go." Blair paused before adding, "I'm a good child."1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpMePef6h2
Zander rolled his eyes too, "One day you will have to face a crowd, you socially awkward vampire." 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0s7E2NUlPT
Blair scowled at him before they moved on to another subject.
The day was warm, although soon it was to become chilly once winter comes. Blair couldn't wait, those were the days where she could coup up in her warm bedroom with a hot chocolate and read books or watch the snow fall. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aUPfyhW8V
They were walking uphill, and Blair was struggling to hide the fact that she was winded, from such a small hill too. The neighborhood's entrance was at the top of the hill, and the neighborhood was flat beyond the stone that said Moorestone, the name of their small neighborhood.1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIsQx3rSa5
Zander was talking about the semi-permeable membrane when two shadowy figures approached them. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6SobNQsTl
There were two of them, a male and female. Both were dressed in black, and hints of metal glinted behind their backs. Zander didn't even want to think what they were. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY7CoM6fwY
Zander and Blair both stopped talking, Blair's hand reaching for her phone. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZKuzcbmg0
The male was slightly tanner than the female, his blonde hair was close to his scalp, and tattoos ran down both of their necks. The female's blonde hair was in a tight, single braid that ran down to her waist. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4aLHgbkGv
What disturbed Zander and Blair were their almost white, grey eyes that held nothing but threat. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0cJV7MnBr
Zander and Blair looked at each other, both thinking about running away, back to the school, but the female spoke. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKmvMz14cb
"Zander Ryker and Blair Yang, you two are arrested for illegally selling a magic spellbook and sword." The female's voice would have been sweet if it were not for the lethal tone. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM31dujIAR5
Blair narrowed her eyebrows in confusion, are they serious? The only response she had was to laugh at their foolishness. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGZhX50qvk
"What?" Blair laughed even louder, the male and female looked confused. "Are you actually arresting us for selling some ancient collection of books and an old sword?" 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGY6CyaZdf
Zander wished that she would stop, the male and female before them looked angry. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNg8q3qpl9f
"It wasn't simply some weapon or book," the blonde-haired female snarled. "They are considered valuables to the magic world." She explained, which only made Blair explode in laughter.1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKUw0NDos6
"I don't know who you are, but you are very funny. Magic doesn't exist, this isn't some Hogwarts or Shadowhunter--" Blair stopped when a sword was aimed at her forehead. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7iDuBIwsj
Zander gasped and took a step away, his light green eyes darting back and forth between the male and Blair. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJh2mnPivB
"We didn't come here to chat, we came here to arrest you." The male's baritone voice announced, and suddenly Zander felt his hands tie together. Then he heard a click, he looked down at his hands, they were clasped together with steel. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NTNXvQtUs
No, no, no. Zander thought to himself, his thoughts running wild. What is happening? How did they do this? He looked up to where they stood, their faces were dead serious. Then he looked to Blair, her hands were now cuffed also, and the weapon still aimed at her. 1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNukUOOSCp
Zander and Blair looked at each other, and in that moment they knew, that the duo before them had meant every word they said.
