『XIII. Nightmare』

  Blair was taken by exhaustion after subjecting the powers Duke , though she has not stopped thinking about her father . Benjamin began to haunt her mind since the day she learned of her existence. While lying in bed still in the clothes he wore out , Blair realized that everyone in the house had slept and then decided to go to the bathroom to get ready for bed .

  When looking into the mirror , she puts her hands to her mouth to stifle a scream . The image of

Benjamin appeared in place of her reflection with a sad face for a few seconds . Once you could see your image again , faced with a girl color and grayish blue eyes paler than it already was . She looked at her hands and saw sharp claws and white , sharp and gleaming tusks protruding from the mouth.

' My dear, do not be scared , I 'll still be here . '

  Blair felt upset , but was not established . Maybe it was because it was half human , but it was still something terrifying . She could not let her mother see her thus could not let anyone see her like that . Therefore, decided to go to Duke , that could explain what happened , once she felt his presence in her head . Jumped the balcony of her room and ran to the house the night of the vampire, however , felt he was being followed. Anyway , it did not matter . She needed to find Duke quickly.

  Duke was in the library reading some books when he hears a knock on the door and see a girl enter. By the smell , he knew it was Blair , and seeing as she was, your questions disappeared .

- How do I get it?

- You can not get rid of. It is the will of Benjamin .

- Why? I agreed to be Half Blood , however I do not want to become one of you ... Wanted to continue with what I was a Blood Mode with a normal life !

- Blair , you know that whatever you are living is nothing but a big lie . Sooner or later it would happen, you are the sole heir of Benjamin .

- And what does that mean ? What is my role?

- You have no utility now . - Cameron appeared behind her - Enjoy your minutes as one of us , because it will no longer be extended .

  Duke grabbed Blair by the arm and both jumped out the window , running to a safe place so it could be clarified . However , Cameron and Scarlet were equally fast and were determined not to let the girl escape alive.

- You will not escape .

- Cameron , do you think that because it is one you can do what you want? He 's using you .

- Matthew ?

  Cameron gave a smug smile at Blair .

- Matthew Lloyd never really existed . My name is Cameron Parker , his worst nightmare .

   The girl shivered and flinched . Realizing the movement , the Duke pulled her to stay standing .

- It 's who you should fear . Hold on !

- But ...

- Duke 's right , girl. You are the daughter of one of the noblest and most powerful vampires in our entire history .

  Cameron laughed with the declaration of Scarlet .

- Yet he faltered because of ... He got what he deserved , but I confess I had a lot working with him .

  Blair growled and advanced on Cameron , causing both to roll and attack the floor . Scarlet was intefirir but had his face scratched by the newly converted . Duke parted , knowing the problems it could bring. The boy stood up and touched his left eyebrow , which was a cut .

- Like father like daughter ... It seems that you will also give me a job , is not it? What fun , but pathetic. You just uses his strength when we provoke the memory of his father , I can really wipe you out faster , however, is not yet time for that.

  Scarlet and Cameron disappeared . Duke analyzing the case carefully and realized that the enemy was right . If she does not let Benjamin finish what she had started , she could be killed very easily and be moved to the instinct of revenge will make things worse . He wished his friend was sure what I was doing , because a small mistake put everything away . Blair was outnumbered and was alone to face the Parker clan, which was extremely numerous. What could be done to reverse the situation ? The other hunters would not agree to join and also the other vampires are controlled by the influence of Parker , even those who were once loyal to Benjamin , now despised him. The solutions were out of reach .

『XII. What Can We Do?』

- Do you think it will accomplish anything?
- Sure . If she cares about her daughter , will certainly take steps to make her be free of all this . Therefore , she will try to break that barrier and we have access to her mind again .
- You took too long to begin to strategize , do not you think ?
- Shut up , I did not ask your opinion .
- And yet , I gotta be near you .
- You are the most disgusting parasite I've ever seen .
  Scarlet stuck her tongue out at him and sat on the picnic table in the park with her legs crossed . It was night and they were waiting for something exciting to do. However , they found nothing .
- Do not be so rude, Cameron Parker . If it were not for me you would not have the prestigious post he has.
  He smiled .
- For a long time I have not heard my real name .
- I know , I know ... Since you became one thought you had assimilated human life again.
- This is exactly why I could not adapt myself again. He will pay me when this is over . I agree to have someone like you in this mission , though I should be waiting for results .
- But you can not complain since you're here . So , Mr. Parker , what do we do ?
- We have to wait to find out . We will evaluate how it behaves . If it comes back to normal, then we can pounce . Otherwise , we will have to wait a little longer .
  Both were silent and looked to the east , towards the house of Lockwood and saw a shadow around the corner nimbly , but still a little awkward . They looked at each other and decided to follow the shadow that seemed familiar.

『XI. Outset』

  Hannah and Blair went out the way in silence . The girl looked at the scenery out the car window without paying attention , but soon awakens when he begins to see a class neighborhood , but still maintained the Victorian times . The street was deserted , but some people were watching what was happening from the window of their homes .

- Mom, where are we?

- This is the old Victorian neighborhood , Red Britain . The friend of his father, Duke Whistler , the lives around here .

- And he is ...

- Absolutely.

  The old hunter stopped in front of the most luxurious house on the block , where a young butler opened the door and greeted the guests happily and led to the living room . Blair did not seem comfortable with the situation , but Hannah was too familiar with the circumstances . Perhaps it was the years she spent living with Benjamin , the girl thought as she accepted a biscuit .

- Hannah Lockwood ! Long time , no?

- Hello , Duke ! This is Blair.

  Duke approached Blair to take a closer look . It was different than she expected . If not for the gray hair , no one would ever say he was older . because his features were still a young adult and his posture was perfectly erect , like a Victorian noble should be. The green eyes were bright and experienced people to indicate what he really was. Duke walked in circles around her , examining every square inch to a stop in front of Blair . He walked over and gently sniffed her face .

- I recognize the smell and blue tone those eyes anywhere, truly is the tiny Half Blood Benjamin ... You did a good job , Hannah , I'm surprised . But still do not understand why you have come here , I'm sure it is not just a casual visit.

  Hannah named Duke chats and told him all that had passed by Matthew and Scarlet . The vampire understand the circumstances and Hannah Blair and led to a room which was upstairs . The girl lay down reluctantly and let Duke use his powers to make her fall asleep.

  With that he entered her mind and found a barrier that had been placed for the soul of Benjamin . Anyone who did not know him intimately , certainly could not pass that way , however , as they were close friends , it would not be a problem. He moved to the depths of the subconscious Blair and found the soul of the deceased vampire Benjamin Sky .

- Duke ?

- Benjamin ? It's good to see you again .

- Ditto . What you want in the mind of my daughter ?

- Hannah was concerned with the testimony of two newcomers , Matthew Lloyd and Scarlet Knight , who tried to get into her mind.

  Benjamin snorted , unhappy .

- Those two have no reason to be near my daughter, let alone get into her mind. They are enemies and traitors . When the host , they gave the blow and knocked me down not too little . I'm still grateful to you for that day .

- That's what friends do , do not worry . But ... What are your intentions , anyway?

- I want to protect her from them . You know she is my sole heir and therefore a threat to the Supreme . I decided to take care of her until the day arrives.

  Duke thought for a moment .

- Is not that cruel? She is happy as is and throw it in this war is something cold on his part , considering the love and protective instinct you have for her.

- I'll still be with her and my power will absorivdo through her when the time is right . A part of him she already assimilated . Now , I have left is to wait .

- I still see the care and affection you have for her , will not discuss his plans, but have someone who would like a response .

- You can connect it to me ?

- Unfortunately not .

- Then tell her I 'll be in touch with her tonight .

  Duke nodded and prepared to return .

- What happened ? What did he say ?

- He said he will contact you tonight and will explain everything . I think he knows what he's doing and I support that . His motives are unquestionable .

  Hannah agreed with a nod and Blair still thrashed from side to side, struggling to wake up and undo the power of Duke on her. When I finally woke up , did not ask anything or say a word until they return home. Hannah was not surprised silence daughter , but was worried about what it would be at the mercy of plans Benjamin . He had always been a quiet man who knew what to do , but what if it all goes wrong ? And if the only heir of Sky Clan had also a painful doom ?

『X. Duke Whistler』

  Hannah had just tidy up the house after arriving from work and when it comes to the living room , see Matthew Scarlet and waiting for her.
- Get away from my house ! I have nothing to deal with you .
- Yes , you have. His daughter is our key player and is talking about it we came .
  The hunter waited for them to press ahead without much patience . Vampires were arguing about which infomações say until they came to an agreement .
- Blair could not attend any classes today.
- How so ? She was fine when she woke .
- No, she was not . After she learned of Benjamin Sky her behavior changed when Blair is away from you .
- It was your fault! I did not ask you despejaar the truth about her once .
- But I advised . - Scarlet interfiriu .
  Hannah was seething with fury at being obliged to discuss this matter with vampires and two enemies who still had interest in her daughter. However , she was also guilty for not telling the truth from the beginning , when Blair questioned the fact that she and her adoptive father are not equal. What Matthew did was right after all and she could not blame him for doing what it was for her as a mother.
- And as the existence of Benjamin could have affected her ?
- He is awake inside her and we can not learn what is happening . Benjamin created a special protection against us .
- But how ? He could only do this if ...
  The vampires nodded harshly and Hannah soon understood why everything is happening . But she could not rush and thought of a person who could know what was going on with Blair , but also knew Benjamin deeply.

  Blair came home trying to hide the sadness I felt and practiced in order to do his voice back to normal , so it does not look like she had been crying almost every morning . Before crossing the front door , she saw the door handle move, as seen Matthew Lloyd and Scarlet Knight leaving home . As they had arrived before her? Well , it did not matter much, however , knew it would not be a good thing .
  Hannah was waiting for her in the living room , but showed no sign that he knew about what had happened that morning .
- Mother ? Why are you dressed like that?
- Let's get out .
- Go out ? Where ?
- Let's visit an old friend of your father.

『IX. Changes』

  Blair woke up with her ​​face wet with tears and with Hannah 's voice calling her hastily. The girl tried to wipe his face , hoping that her mother did not realize she had been crying.

- Blair , you'll be late .

  She assentiui and quickly rose to shower and dress . Went to school without eating breakfast , because every time you remembered the warm lap and velvety and soaring voice of her father , her heart was wounded . As would have been happy if he were still alive and along with Hannah and she ... However, it could not ignore the hunter who took care of her all this time , without worrying for her daughter to be a vampire .

' I will be with you whenever you need. '

  Benjamin 's face with teary eyes filled the mind of Blair and the tears fell without stopping . Matthew looked in her direction as he heard the teacher releasing it to the infirmary .

- Someone could make company for Miss Lockwood to improve it ?

  He got up and found Blair sitting on the floor near the lockers. He touched her shoulder, but his vision was blinded by a flash and he could see the image of Benjamin who was in the girl's mind . The bell rang and Scarlet was walking down the stairs when he received a call from Matthew and looked around for him .

  She met with Blair , who still wept without paying attention to anything that was happening around him . Scarlet looked at the Half Blood and touched her arm , causing the image of the father of the girl appeared again. The vampire looked at Matthew and shook his head .

- Benjamin awakened within her, now we can only wait.

- It will make it go away from us, we're finished .

- You are right .

  Scarlet disappeared and left Matthew with Blair . Benjamin protected her daughter even after death and this prevented them from moving forward vampires . Now that Half Blood would be a problem and a threat , however , eliminate it was totally out of the question. Without any other alternative , they decided to talk directly with the huntress Hannah Lockwood . The vampires left school out of hours and went to the abode of Blair .

『VIII. Dream of a Vision』

  With the end of classes , Scarlet went to the guild to hit the end of its integration into the Dark Blood Academy . Blair was alone in the room finishing tidying the papers when he realizes the presence of the girl. Soon after all predict , the chairman deteu the new student for a chat .

- Scarlet , can I ask you a question ?

- Yes , but I can not guarantee that I can answer it .

- You and Matthew Lloyd has some kinship ?

  Scarlet gave a slight laugh , but caught himself .

- No, we have nothing in common . Why do you ask ?

- I know you guys are vampires and wanted to know why .

- So you can see our souls ... In fact the daughter of Benjamin Sky .

- How do you know ?

- We all know the only Half Blood that has great power .

  Blair looked at Scarlet Knight atonitamente without knowing what to think .

- Why is it with this guy? This is normal , because you study with vampires .

- What? How so ?

- Do not tell me you've never found a school have a weird name like that ?

- Yes , but ...

- The school has that name because it was originally built for vampires . However , with the union of humans with vampires , the school was also open to human and half human .

- But no one could have imagined that we would have a Half Blood studying here .

  Matthew entered the room and also began to discuss the issue , which lasted no more than a few minutes .

  She came home and threw it on the bed the way it was and fell asleep in seconds , because I was tired .

  Blair was in a dark and cold place . The wind howled in the ears of the girl and bounced her hair so that she could not warm up just rubbing her arms . A faint light came from under a door and she decided to follow him . The door opened with a creak down and she was in a hallway lit with candles for a luxurious place.

  A shadow passed by and Blair felt a magnetic pull drawing her and encouraging her to follow the shade. She walked quietly until he heard the cry of a baby in the room that was nearby. The girl dared peek and saw that the bedroom door was open and a man was on his back . He was tall and wore a white suit and was singing a lullaby that did not only affect the baby, but Blair also began to feel tired and sleepy by the sweetness of the singing voice . Took the plunge and come out of hiding and was when Hannah saw the man's side and saw the baby's face .

  She was swallowed by the darkness and fell into a completely dark place and the extremeley clean and polished floor, which allowed her to see her own reflection . Even before she could get up , Blair feels arms around her and realizes that his face is leaning on someone's shoulder .

  The girl lifts her head slowly and looks into the eyes of the person . Immediately , she feels an electric current passing through his body when he looks directly into the eyes of Benjamin Blue Sky .

- Father ..

- His mother and that Hunter did a good job ... You are radiant , my love . At least I have some joy , but let her fatherless is unforgivable .

- This was not your fault , Mom told me everything, I can understand.

  Benjamin 's eyes filled with tears , but he was not allowed to cry in front of her daughter. He tightened his arms around the girl , who left the tears umidecerem his face . She knew he was dead, but it all seemed so real tears was a difficult task .

  Benjamin wiped the tears of her daughter and kissed her forehead before disappearing . Even for a ghost , his heart ached at being forced to leave the most precious person in the world alone again . But he could not return , and nothing could change the past . What remained to him now was to protect her world and herself . Above all , he should protect her from the truth .

『VII. New Student』

  The next day was normal , despite everything she learned in just one night , no one noticed any change in attitudes Blair . However , Matthew noticed a fraction of sadness in her voice when she saw her in the hallways , but did not attempt to say anything to try to cheer her up . Amberlyn watched the reaction of representative classes and shot the boy with a glare because he had disobeyed one of the rules that have been imposed .

  Blair was busy in student government getting the support Annelise when a girl comes in and distracts the attention of others.

- How can I help ?

- The director told me to talk to the representative Blair Lockwood .

- I am . It's a pleasure to help , how can I be helpful ?

- I just transfer me here and told me that you take care of the integration of newcomers .

- Okay . You can sit here, please ?

  The girl sat down and had their transfer and their documents . Blair looked at every thing in detail and looked Annelise , who took various roles in a drawer .

- Okay ... Scarlet , is not it?

- Yes

- Here are their schedules and everything you will need for classes today . We will have the first two classes in the same room , then I can show you a little of the school. These are the keys to her hall closet and dressing room , you can find them easily .

- Thank you.

- Oh, please , end of the school come back here to finish setting the rest of their integration .

  Scarlet nodded and walked into the hallway , where Matthew found himself leaning against a wall , completely absorbed in his ideas . However, it aroused so smelled the perfume novice . He remembered that smell and was in her direction .

- Hello , Matthew .

- What are you doing here ?

- This school has no restrictions , so I can be where I want. Furthermore , I came here for you .

- So this is how ... You do your work and appear out of nowhere when you want?

- I made a promise , did not I? For I am fulfilling it . And that girl needs to be closely watched , as a part of it can uncover the truth .

- She already knows everything.

- Not all . There is something not even know and Hannah Lockwood , Blair discover if we will have problems .

- You're not saying that ...

- That's right .

- But what about records ?

- The records are wrong , not over yet . She is still on our side and it's better that way . Even so , no one can know about this , so keep this well-kept secret . The Supreme does not know that this news just escaped , so he has not done anything about it.

  Matthew was meditating on those words . So the Apocalypse was not finished actually . If it really is , Scarlet is right and it could not come to the knowledge of Lockwood . Both the Supreme as the others know that Blair is a killing machine unstable and , if she knows that all is not what she thinks , the collapse between vampires may well go out of control .

- Do not see that much tinned girl?

- Yeah, she did not pass me a good impression .

- Indeed . I felt chills.

- Must be known Matthew .

  Annelise arched eyebrow thoughtfully . Really they had something in common and the same atmosphere that surrounded them was frighteningly cold and melancholy . Blair began to arrange her file again and saw a bright spot on the forehead of Scarlet just the photo. So it was more a vampire .

『VI. True 』

  Mother and daughter went to the room with the intention of talking to themselves. The adoptive father of Blair was out working in a call as security for a bank and they could be at peace . They sat on the bed the girl and stood face -to -face . Blair did not know whether I was doing right , because Hannah could hide the truth again, but she had to try.

- Mother , it is true that I am a Half Blood ? Something strange happened when I was coming home and Matthew told me that you were a vampire hunter , and that my real father was a vampire prince named Benjamin Sky and he died .

- Yes It's true . And Joseph knows it. He was also a hunter and welcomed me when the empire his father was destroyed .

- And why did you hide this from me?

- Because the family relationship that you and Joseph had was wonderful, because I did not want to leave you with a trauma from knowing that his real father is dead .

  Blair paused and stared at her mother , trying to understand what else she was hiding her. Hannah grabbed his daughter's hands firmly and showed a scar that was on her left shoulder .

- This happened when his father died . You only had weeks of their life and we lived all together in his father's castle . Benjamin loved you more than anything and it left a bitter group of subjects . They became rebels and tried to storm the castle at all costs . However , his father was stronger and could inhibit numerous invasion attempts .

' But there was a day when you and I were alone in the castle , because his father was summoned to a meeting with the supreme vampire . The rebels seized this chance and the guards did not have enough strength to stop them and they entered the room where we were . Were armed with various weapons and tried to hurt you , but I still had skills to protect you. '

' His father arrived , but too late . The guards were killed and I was wounded , you cried on my lap and Benjamin came to support you and me. Once he held in his lap , one of the surviving rebels attacked him with a silver dagger . '

  Blair felt his eyes fill with tears . Think everything happened in such a cruel manner was cold and depressing. She felt for her father and all those who morrerram because of it . If it was not because she was crying that day , Benjamin would be alive right now. Hannah bolstered the daughter, who sobbed and took something from the bedside table Blair .

- I think this might make you feel better .

 She took the photograph that depicted her father . Benjamin was a really noble vampire, with dark brown hair well groomed and dark blue eyes that conveyed serenity and sweetness . He was in a white suit and not look directly at the picture , but to a large window . Blair soon realized that there was a similarity between them . The precise distance of the eyes , the shape of the face and chin were equal .

  Hannah looked at it with emotion . If Benjamin were alive , sure would be happy to see how Blair was now.

- I just remembered something.

- What is it?

- Before he died , Benjamin gave you the gift of seeing the weakness of the other vampires and also the gift of healing . A part of his soul is within you since that day.

  Blair 's eyes widened and then she remembered the light that saw Rhayden 's throat and left chest of Matthew . So it was Benjamin who was helping to awaken their true origin of Half Blood .

『V. Half Blood 』

 She came out of hiding , determined to finish everything . However , Blair stopped and wondered what it would do to put an end to all that . With no response , froze a few feet away from the boys . Matthew Rhayden stopped attacking when he saw the girl there and ran over her in a heartbeat . Both the girl and the other boy were unresponsive . She was pinned against the asphalt and the body of the enemy to his companion , unable to move right . Matthew looks oscillated between her and Rhayden without much apparent concern .

- I waited so long for this ... And now the Half Blood is my ... What will you do , my dear opponent ?

- I will not do anything . If you want to know , just care about her .

   Rhayden gave a malignant chuckle and prepared canines to pierce the neck Blair , who was beginning to lose track of where I was. His vision was blurred and his blood pressure was low, which would indicate a swoon . This is no time to faint , the girl thought , trying to find a weak spot to be able to get free. Once Matthew had refused to do anything for her, she had to fend for herself .

  Blair saw a bright spot in the body of your enemy and hit him in the throat with one of the staples holding his silver hair. Rhayden left her and fell on his side , thrashing and growling for the pain that was spreading until it started to burn and disappear without even leaving ashes behind.

  The girl was still stunned by what he had done alone and looked toward Matthew , whose features showed no surprise or admiration. He just walked over and extended his hand to help her up .

- As I was able to do something like that ? What are you ? Who was that ?

- That was Rhayden and , like me, a vampire aristocracy.

  Matthew showed the symbol of the aristocracy of vampires that was in his left wrist , which had the shape of a pentagram in red blood and black colors . Blair stared at the brand until the boy covered again.

- And what you have to say about what I did ?

- That was lucky , nothing more than that .

  She blocked his path and crossed his arms . Believe that he was a vampire all right , but to say that what she had to do was a stroke of luck was not right. Matthew tried to get through it, but Blair would not budge .

- I will not believe it was luck. Matthew , please tell me what happened to me , I know you know something and is hiding it from me . It's my life and I have a right to know .

- It was just luck , I said . At the moment of despair , humans are capable of anything .

- Liar ! As you expica I know exactly where to hit him ? How do you explain the fact that I have seen a glow exactly the weak point of it ? Why he called me Half Blood ? Explain to me , Matthew !

  He fell silent and avoided her gaze . That still was not the right time , but Blair was so stubborn that he did not know what to do . He looked around , searching for a solution to that problem and he saw a shadow facing him from afar. When Matthew stared at the figure , a girl dressed in black appeared and nodded before disappearing into the darkness.

- Okay ... Do not say it's a lie .

  She fixed her eyes on him , waiting for him to continue talking .

- You are a Half Blood .

- I already know .

- Half Blood are rare since when our races began to inhabit the same space . They are born of the union between noble vampires and vampire hunters .

- I mean I'm half - human ?

- No. Hunters Vampires are not just human . He is descended from ancient wizards with humans and that has some special skills to hunt us . By research , it seems that you are the daughter of the vampire Benjamin Sky , Prince of England with late hunter Hannah Lockwood .

- A moment ... Are you saying that my mother was a hunter and had a relationship with a noble vampire? This is ridiculous !

- If it's so ridiculous, why do not you have any physical or psychological trait inherited from his human father?

  Blair paused and bowed his head . It was true that she did not look anything like the man she called father for sixteen years , but by consequence he failed to consider her a daughter .

  Realizing her prolonged silence , Matthew chose one of the cars parked and started the engine to draw the attention of the girl .

- Come on, it is getting late and I think you have a lot to process yet.

  She got into the car mechanically , without realizing the tort that Matthew had just committed and continued thinking about it . As her mother can lie so blatantly ? Does fake her father knew something about it ? What happened to her real father ?

- Matthew , you know what happened to my biological father ?

- No. But your mother should know , ask her.

- And you expect me to say what? Simply intime ?

- His mother is not stupid . When I went to pick you up at your house with vampire she recognized me . Do not tell me you did not realize that she was more serious and hard to talk to me ?

- I figured but thought it was just me .

  They followed the path in silence to the house of Lockwood , where her mother was waiting at the front door with concern . Once Matthew was away and Blair entered , her mother began to examine the neck and the arms of her daughter, as if searching for something suspicious . When he found nothing , Hannah looked into his daughter's eyes at length , looking for a gloss or different feeling . At the end of the diagnosis , she sighed in relief and allowed the girl to go to sleep after giving a short notice .

- Daughter , please have no more contact with that guy, okay? I have not found reliable.

- Mom, you could go up to my room with me for a minute ? There's something I like to talk to you .

『IV. Mystic Night』I

- Is everything all right ? You seem nervous.
  Blair even had realized as I was before leaving the bathroom and came straight to the table . Matthew stared at her intently , trying to figure out what was wrong with her. Realizing his green eyes riveted on her, the girl remembered the question he had and turned to face him .
- It was nothing , I'm fine .
- Well , if you need something, you can trust me .
- Thank you.
  They were silent and tried to encourage her friend Annelise distance slightly , but nothing has been able to break the huge ice barrier between them invisible . Both were close , but with their minds away from what was happening in the hall .
  Until a person dressed as a grim reaper appeared near them , and Matthew got up with some asperity , calling the attention of Blair unintentionally .
- I'll be back .
- Are you okay ?
- Yes , I just need to resolve some small issues .

  He followed the costumed person to a restricted area of the room , which was completely deserted and cold . The reaper stood on a balcony and turned to face Matthew , who arrived seconds later . The person took the cloak and revealed a girl with red hair and smooth , with hazel eyes and extremely pale in the moonlight . The boy gritted his teeth , but remained there without showing her reaction .
- What you want , Amberlyn ?
- Rhayden is coming .
- But ... Why would he be here?
  Amberlyn grimaced .
- As if you did not know . He wants to be the head of that person to overthrow our leader .
- That traitor ... I'll see what I can do about it.
  She put the robe again and passed him .
- Do not tell her anything yet, understand?
- You think you're talking to whom , you moron ?
  Amberlyn was gone and a strange wind blew in the air . Matthew slipped out of there and returned to the table where they found Blair . He looked around the room , but could not find it anywhere. Annelise seen near a table and decided to go to her .
- Hello , Matthew !
- Annelise , Blair saw you out there ?
- She stood on the balcony when I saw ten minutes ago .
  He left without another word and went quickly to the balcony, where Blair was alone looking at the sky with a man dressed in Phantom of the Opera leaning against a wall looking at her. Matthew growled and was close to the girl .
- Want to go home ?
- Well , I think so ...
- Blair ! - Annelise appeared and pulled her friend by the arm to the salon - They will announce the king and queen of terror now !
- I'm leaving.
- No you will not , Miss ! Come on !

  All were gathered in a room and seated at their respective tables , each anxious for results. Blair and Matthew were the last to sit before the headmaster start talking .
- I know everyone is anxious for the results , so I will not do speech and go straight to the point. - He opened the envelopes - Here it is; nominees to be the king of terror , are: Thomas Herrera , Matthew Lloyd and Dylan Mytras ...
  Matthew sighed with discontent, while the rest of the hall whispering about which of them would take the title . When they calmed down again , the director talks resumed .
- However , the winner is Dylan Mytras , who won the title by a vote of difference between Matthew Lloyd , congratulations .
  The winner was the guy with the fancy of Phantom of the Opera , which went up on stage with straight face while receiving a crown and sash .
- And now , those indicated for Queen of terror : Blair Lockwood , Annelise Patterson and Sophia Linston , but we have a tie between Blair and Sophia ladies and fits to choose who will be our king his queen tonight .
  The boy's face dress Phantom of the Opera lit up when he heard the results of the girls . He briefly took the microphone and announced his choice .
- It is an honor to make this choice and I want Blair Lockwood is my queen .
  Matthew Blair gritted his teeth and held him by the hand , leading him to the exit when the other boy was heading towards her.
- Miss would give me the honor ?
- No! You are not one of the students ! I'll call security !
  He grabbed her arm and Matthew moved violently , causing both to fall on the tables and roll across the floor , causing an uproar among students . Blair stopped in his tracks and turned to take his companion that mess . He grabbed her wrist and both ran to the car .
- Matthew , what ...
- Get in the car , quickly! He will soon get out of this mess . We do not have time.
- He ? Who is he ?
  Matthew pushed her into the car and went at full speed and nearly running over several people along the way . Blair felt his stomach was far away at a height of those . He had his knuckles white by force he was holding the steering wheel . Damn , why just now ? The boy thought to himself and those thoughts were passed on in the form of severe and fierce growls .
- Are you okay ?
  He did not answer and she did not bother to answer because a shadow stood in the middle of the road with open arms , waiting for the approach of the vehicle in which they were . Matthew floored the accelerator and continued the route.
- What are you doing ? Do not you see that guy in front ?
  No answer. He was getting nervous and something inside him was eager to break free and take control of the situation .
- Matthew !
- Listen : when I say , will you jump the car .
- Are you crazy ? At this speed I ...
- You will die if you keep in the car ! Now stop asking questions and just get ready to jump.
  She looked at the shoes and the dress . That sure would not end well , but she had no choice .
- Now !
  Blair jumped and Matthew did the same seconds later and the car went on to hit the boy dressed in Phantom of the Opera in full. She covered her eyes to see the size of the accident , however , did not resist the curiosity and saw that the boy had stopped the car with one hand only . Matthew ran towards her and left hidden behind other cars that were parked along the sidewalk and turned to face the other boy , who was without a mask and without the cover .
- Rhayden .
- So you recognize me ? I'm happy without knowing it , however I am surprised with your change ... You are at the beginning was always isolated from everyone around her and now everything has changed : the personality , the looks and even the name , in fact hardly recognized .
  Matthew lost control of himself and let the trapped the thing possessed . For years he struggled to try to control it, but never got real success . His eyes took on the tone of solid silver and cold and took her hair light brown coloring. White and extremely sharp fangs protruded and , in seconds , Matthew Lloyd was not the same . Rhayden opened a smug smile and jumped on his opponent with feline grace , making a scratch on the face of the other boy.
- Will not attack ? It is a waste as much power to you !
  Rhayden continued to attack with ferocity , but Matthew remained the same . Calm, cold and still . Blood dripped from his wounds , but he did not care because I knew Rhayden could not do that much longer .

 Blair watched it with horror. Matthew was not the same and that unknown yet never tired of hurting him . She had to do something, he was sure , but what? It was evident that both were not just ordinary humans and attempting to prevent what could cause more problems for Matthew .
