Mikael turned around. "I think I heard something." But he couldn't see anything. "Down here I'm an easy prey." He moved his wings back and forth, then he jumped and flew to the sky. He stopped above the trees. "I'll wait here until the morning, then I'll look for him."
Jenny hugged him back and sniffed. "B-but my parents said I was cursed." She sniffed again, tears falling through her cheeks. "And Father Williams said I was possessed. The Devil took my body and gave my powers."
Lucian growled when his prey flew away. He turned around and kept running through the woods until he stopped deep in the woods and settled down and slept until the sun came up
Soleil looked at her "Please, Jen, I know a possessed devil when I see one. You are not cursed, you are blessed"
Mikael began flying in circles when the Sun started to came out, it took him a while to find Lucian, he had gone so far into the forest. Before landing, he realized that Lucian was almost naked so he flew back to the castle, entered the science class and took a lab coat. Then he headed back to where Lucian was and landed beside him. The man was sleeping in the ground, Mikael still had the wolfsbane coming out from one of his pockets.
Jenny looked him in the eye. "Are you sure?"
Ethan heard the entire conversation from Luna's pillow. He liked that boy, he was convincing Jennifer that her powers weren't something bad. He looked at Luna, that girl was connected to nature in a very deep way. He jumped and sat down on her belly.
Soleil smiled widely "I am positive"

Luna felt Ethan sit on top of her and the slight impact woke her up. She was sore all around but sge felt better but when she looked outside, she screeched like a banshee and shield her eyes
Lucian woke up with a groan as he struggled to sit himself up. Rubbing his temples, he turned his head to Mikael when his vision cleared up. "Did I attack anyone?"
Ethan's voice sounded inside her head. "You, you have the nature in your blood, in your genes. I can communicate with you. My name is Ethan." The crow looked at her with his red eyes. "You don't need to speak if you don't want to, I can hear your thoughts."
Mikael smiled. "No, not really. You tried to scratch me and then you hunted me, but I'm not an easy prey." He handed him the lab coat. "Take it." His feathers did a soft sound as he moved his wings to keep balance.
Now with Sol's vampire powers in her, she can now communicate with Ethan wity her mind as well. "What are saying? What do you mean by 'you have the nature in your blood'?"
Lucian took the coat and put it on "thanks and thank you god, you have no idea how painful it is". Slowly, he got up with a tree's support and began to walk to regain his balance
"I mean that you are the child of a creature of nature. There are a few different species of creatures of nature, such like elves, fairies, nature spirits. I'm a nature spirit and I can feel nature in you, though it's weak. One of your parents wasn't a creature of nature, you are an hybrid."
Mikael walked alongside Lucian. "Painful? You mean the transformation?"
Lucian stopped and looked at Mikarl "the transformation, you get used to it after a while. It's the fleas...they're murder"
Luna replied back "my mother, my father was as you said a creature of nature. My mother is a goddess"
Mikael stepped away from him. "You're kidding me, right?" Then he laughed. "Anyway. Seriously, man, a werewolf? And you didn't even mention it? It would have been nice of you to say something like: 'Oh, yeah guys, I have something with the moon, but don't worry I just get all furry and became a blood-thristy beast'." Mikael tried to imitate Lucian's voice in the last part. "Oh, now that I remember it, that's why you didn't like the flower. I think I have it. . .Yes! Here it is." He took the wolfsbane out of his pocket for Lucian to see.
"Goddess? But you don't look like a demi-goddess." Ethan seemed curious.
Jenny rested her head against Soleil's chest and smiled slightly. "Thank you."
Lucian chuckled lowly, even that was rare for him then his eyes widen when Mikael showed him the flower. He felt himself growing weak, he held onto a nearby branch of a tree and covered the lower part of his face with his hand. "Mikael! You know that kills all werewolves bitten or pure breed"
Luna sighed "I gave it up to save a teacher's life"

Soleil carrassed her back as he bent and kissed the top of her head
"Yeah I know." He closed his eyes and breathed in deeply. Some kind of dark translucent substance flew from Lucian to Mikael. "Hmm~ Fear." His body absorbed it as his wings shook a little. When all that substance disappeared Mikael pull the flower back in his pocket and out of sight. Then he stretched. "I needed energy and I couldn't just ask you to be afraid." He opened his eyes after explaining his behaviour. "Andiamo. (Come on.) Let's go back to the school." He looked towards the building. "We are pretty far. If you don't mind being carried I can fly us to it."
Lucian breathed heavily "well, your welcome Mikael," he though about it for a moment, "it would save some time, alright, let's go"
Mikael took Lucian and flew up above the tips of the trees. Once they were there he changed their direction and flew towards the school, the trees were far bellow them. "Tell me if you feel dizzy or something." He said over the sound of the wind and the flap of his wings.
"That's very kind. That kid over there said he was your cousin. Is he a good boy? I don't want anyone to hurt Jennifer."
Jenny felt him kissing her head and flushed. She mumbled something incoherent and gave a step back slowly, looking at the ground. Then she glanced at Luna. "I-I-I think your c-cousin is a-a-awake." She whispered.
Lucian didn't bother to look at Mikael, instead he look straight towards the horizon "I've flown before, I think I'll be fine"
Luna nodded "He is and he can be annoying at times and cocky but he's good, protective as well"

Soleil looked up from Jen and towrads his cousin, he looked over at the wind, it was morning oh shit oh shit oh shit! quickly, he ran to the window and closed the blinds shut
"Ok." After a while he landed near the school, where no one could see them and dropped Lucian. "I'll go take a shower. See you around." His wings disappeared as he walked into the school and towards his dorm. He took new clothes and a towel and headed to the bath house.
"Good" Ethan flew to Jenny's shoulder and rubbed his head against her cheek. Jenny saw Soleil running to shut the window close and gasped. "You bit her, so now she's. . . " Her eyes widened as she looked at Luna, a hand covering her mouth.
Lucian nodded and head towards his room for a good comfortable rest. His body ached from being a werewolf
Mikael entered the boys bath house. When he took of his clothes a rain of questions fell over him. "Woah, did it hurt, mister? I mean the tatoo." "Holy mother of God, how many hours do you spend on the gym, teach." He answered a few of them before entering in the shower. When he finished and exited the bath house he felt new and refreshed, both from the shower and the energy he took from Lucian. Although he wasn't hungry he headed to the lunch room, it was breakfast time and most of the people would be there.
