I don't realize how much time has passed as Lucas enters the living room again, with the usual scowl on his face he sighs. I look up from my laptop, "that bad, huh?"
"Worse, actually," he starts, "Kane wants to call a meeting among all pack members."
I laugh, "that's ridiculous. He knows how dangerous it is for all of us to meet in one place. Especially now since everyone is on high alert."
"As idiotic as this plan is, it's pretty damn important, Ri. We need to go."254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01aUIj8bjn
I look at the TV to see the riots in full force, "when and where?"254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkm7CxHjve

Through the years we've all become crafty. All supernatural beings alike have worked together through a silent treaty to help each other as best as they could. We survive by leaning on each other for support. It's not an ideal situation, but it'll have to do. We're helpless when it comes to humans. There's literally nothing we can do but to cower and hide in the shadows thanks to a treaty crafted by The Ancients and their respective human. 254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbXAEHMu34
The Ancients are a group of powerful immortals consisting of one being from each supernatural race. They are like gods to those who believe in their power. These Ancients have a role to maintain peace between us all through law and punishment. However, the human representative at the time, Lincoln Ashby, was a greedy conniving man who tricked the others into signing a treaty in order to 'protect the weaker human race'. And here we are, fools who are unable to do anything but watch our families, our friends, and our enemies die at the hands of the humans that we're supposed to 'protect' as an extension of said treaty.
Lucas and I enter the club where the meeting is being held. Even though this club is popular among humans, it's also a place for supernaturals to convene. As long as we have our gleams up, we can't be spotted, it's the perfect place to blend in. We make our way to the registration table where we hand a young vampire our ticket for the night. Our tickets are a little different as a way to identify us. Where the humans have a pink ticket that says 'Night Walker Club', a supernatural's ticket is the same except for the fact that 'Night Walker' is one word. I guess you could chalk it up to a printing error in the event of human intervention, but it makes for a great clue if you're looking to identify us. In response, she hands us each a pair of headphones for our silent disco night, "station number 000," she says and motions us to the dance floor. Station number 000 also can't be accessed to humans, thanks to a very crafty witch. As a result, Night Walker Club is the place to go when shit is about to go down.254Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5hjWjCY2J
We put on our headphones and access station number 000. We start moving to our own rhythm. I look down on my watch to read the time. One more minute before the meeting begins. I look around to see various faces from my pack. It's good to see everyone again. We never started off on the right foot but we eventually became a family once I let my guard down around them. When Kane first turned me into a vampire, I couldn't process this new change. I had a hard time accepting my reality. But he was patient and kind with me. He showed me a life outside of what I knew. He showed me how wonderful my life could be once I accepted my destiny. A destiny that has been intertwined with the supernatural since before I was born. The Fates already knew of me and of what my future as a vampire would hold. I just needed to open my eyes and accept that this is the path I'm needed to take in order to fulfil my prophecy.
The sound of static in my ears pulls me back to reality and I hear Kane's voice, "NightBlood Pack, welcome to our first meeting in 2 years. I'm sorry it's been so long, but I'll make this quick. There's a war approaching. The Ancients are trying their best to break the treaty with the humans before we're all eradicated. But the new human representative won't budge. My sources say that they're looking for a witch with the magic that could break this treaty for the war to begin. But are unable to locate her at this time. Get ready, my family. We've sacrificed too much for too long. The time is coming for us to show our true power to these vile humans. But watch your back, I hear from the demons that there's a group created to keep us, torture us, and experiment on us. They're the ones you need to keep an eye on. The ghosts say these people can be identified by a tattoo of a wired cross on their right hand. Be careful, we don't know what type of experiments they're doing. All we know is that their main focus are vampires." And with that, static engulfs my ears once more.
I stand there in shock, trying to process everything that just happened.
