• Stephanie and Charlotte skipped up to the table. Stephanie sat on Fel’s lap and Charlotte sat on mine. They were both dressed in white summer dresses with a light pink cherry blossom pattern on the front. Their cheeks were normally pale white but when they wanted to go out they put on a bit of blush to give their cheeks colour. Stephanie and Charlotte scowled at Fel and I.
    ‘What?’ asked Fel.
    ‘You two need to be at school in exactly ten minutes and so do Char and I!’ shrieked Steph.
    When I looked at my watch again I saw that the battery was dead. I ran up the stairs pulled on a short blonde pixie like wig then pulled on my school skirt and shirt.
    ‘Aliss! Not our normal school remember? We were expelled for being too boy like and tackling in touch football. We’re well going to an all boys private school so-’ Fel threw a pair of grey shorts, a white shirt, a pair of long skate socks, a maroon prefect like jacket, a pair of black skate shoes and a wig that stopped just above the bottom of my neck. ‘-get dressed’ she ran back to her own bedroom. Since I had a lack of boobage of my own yet I didn’t worry about anyone seeing that. With a bit of makeup I looked well just like a boy. I grabbed my black leather satchel and ran down the stairs. When I got to the bottom I whirled around and caught an apple in one hand and a soccer ball in the other.
    ‘Thanks!’ I called up to Char and Steph then I ran and met Peter, Matthew and ‘Felix’ at the door.
    ‘Ready Alastair?’ said Fel with a wink.
    I nodded then walked out the door after her. When we got to school Fel and I climbed out of Peter’s Black BMW and walked up to the front gate. We both put on a pair of dark sunglasses and walked through the gates. I could smell more vampires were here then just Peter and Matthew. When we walked into the main hall we saw the chaos of Matthew and Peter’s school life. I took off my sunny’s and traded them for a pair of stylish reading glasses. Tennis balls were being thrown across the hall boys were shoving people to get to their lockers. Matthew and Peter found their friends who were funnily enough vampires and they took off leaving us on our own. I looked at Fel and Fel looked at me. We had the same idea. We took off down the halls sliding through impossible spaces barley touching anyone. We made it to the end of the hall when we were grabbed form behind. Two big burly guys (probably seniors) stood looking down at us. One had me by the collar of my shirt and the other had Fel in a head lock.
    ‘Well look at what we have here! Fresh meat’ said the one who had me by the collar of my shirt.
    ‘Shall we welcome them then Harry?’
    Harry nodded. Mr. No name raised his fist but I was quicker I quickly kicked him in the shin. When he bent over I grabbed him by the shoulder and kneed him in the gut. He fell to the ground in pain. I looked over at Fel who had twisted her way out of Harry’s arm while he was watching me kick his friend’s arse. Fel finished him with a blow to the jaw then one to the back. Everyone stared at us as we turned around and walked off to class.
    ‘Hey! Hey wait up!’ someone shouted behind me.
    When I turned around a tall skinny guy ran up to me. He was a vampire. I could tell because when I got a big whiff of him it felt like I’d just sprayed nitrogen up my nose.
    ‘Hey, I’m Jared that was cool what you did back there!’ Jared looked stoked about what we just did.
    ‘Yeah OK well I’m gonna get to class now see ya ‘round’ I mumbled then walked off with Fel.
    Fel’s hand clasped around my bicep.
    What was that about? She asked. When we make physical contact we can share thoughts. It’s pretty handy sometimes. We can do a lot of things through physical contact with well anyone. We can read peoples thoughts, make them feel pain, share our thoughts, manipulate peoples emotions. Any of that to anyone but we need physical contact. Only half vampires get special powers like that. Fel and I had one power we could switch bodies with each other. But doing that can kill us because it takes so much energy.
    Nothing, don’t stress OK?
    She poked her tongue out at me and stormed off to her class.
    I sighed then stormed off to my own class.
