My YA Obsession discussion

I will start and everyone add to it. We will make an awesome story!

The bright full moon shing in the black sky reflected it's superior beauty onto the deep blue lake outside Avery's bedroom window. The lake was almost completely masked by the cover of trees stood beside it.

He forced himself to continue reading the book in his lap, the words blurred together and he growled in frustration.

(I'm hoping Avery is a dude? Or were you aiming for a girl? I can change it to she if you want.)

It wasn't usually so dark in the moonlight but since moon didn't seem to reach his window he turned the light on.

He tossed the book on his desk and paced across his floor.

It was a mess, as usual. He couldn't sleep, so he grabbed his leather jacket and set out into the night.

He found his way to the backdoor, closing it fast before the parents could here him.

Being a light sleeper, Avery's father woke up at the sound of noise coming from the kitchen door, but saw nobody. "Hmm," he said aloud to himself, "Must be hearing things."

"Good of you to show up." She said as she pulled her hood down.

She smiled at him and he returned the smile, "So how are you?"

"I never really know if I do or not." She replied putting her hands back in her jacket pockets to warm them.

"You'll see," she said, smiling in the darkness. He followed her quick and steady pace.

Pulling him in to the alley, she then stood on her tiptoes and kissed him lightly on the cheek. "Trust me," she whispered.

They came to a door--a big, black door, at the end of the alley. "This is it," Tara told him.
"This is it?" Avery asked.
"Yes," she said laughing. She let him kiss the top of her head and they walked in together.

Before them stood a tall, dark, and daunting figure. Avery's uncle.

Tara merely stared between the two before her fighter instinct kicked in and she smacked the gun out of Avery's uncle's hands.

Tara tackled his uncle to the floor aiming the gun at him instead

Avery's uncle, James, put his hands up in surrender and nodded his head towards Tara..."You'd better explain to Avery who I am."

Avery was beyond confused and looked helplessly between Tara and James.

Tara gave him a sympathetic look then turned back to James.

"I think it's best if we both explain," James said reluctantly, "Avery, listen closely. What we are about to tell you is a secret that has been guarded for years on end."

James nodded, his eyes shining with a dangerous glint.

((I have no idea where this is going!))

Avery was starting to lose his patience. "What the hell is going on, Tara?!" he exclaimed suddenly, surprising both James as Tara.

"There is a species as old as time, that our race has thought to be extinct for a few hundred years. They're back now," Tara began, waiting for James to elaborate.

"...if these beasts begin to run riot around town" Tara continued "well we don't exactly know what will happen but it's too much of a risk to find out. Hence the gun."

"sure" Avery smirked "this is all a joke right? Where are the cameras?".

Suddenly everything fell into place. Why he had felt so distanced from his uncle. Why Tara always disappeared.

And his new life was just beginning.

His uncle shook his head. "Don't be stupid Avery" he said with a condisending tone "Vampires don't exist".

"about that..." she started

"So what your trying to tell me is you and my girlfriend have teamed up to become superheroes and save the world?" Avery asked.

"Oh my...what the hell?!" Avery yelled, beyond confused.
"It's okay, Avery, it's normal to be confused. It's a lot to take in," Tara said soothingly.

what book is this?

[its not a book...]

[Oh sorry]

"No Way. H-h-how did you do that?" Avery stammered petrified.

"you mean I can do it too?" he asked still shocked but clearly intrigued

"Yes, you can," James said solemnly.

His uncle looked so serious, he looked to Tara and her face held expression. Avery couldn't help it, he burst out laughing. For some reason he found this whole situation hilarious.

Avery looked at her in disbelief, Tara glanced at him sheepishly. "sorry you deserved it" she told him.

The part of his cheek that had been slapped was red, and absently, Avery put a finger to it. "It's okay, just tell me what's going on. I feel like there's still a lot I dont know--if we're fighting werewolves, who are we?"

"We are the the protecters" James declared seriously.

"The protectors? this is starting to sound like some really bad science fiction movie," Avery said, still not able to believe that werewolves were rampaging their town.

"we didn't choose the name" Tara shrugged "but we live up to it. "

"So how are normal humans supposed to fight off an army of werewolves?" Avery asked.

"What do you mean she's not human? I know she has those freaky claw things, but so do we, Uncle James," Avery said slowly.

"Oh my gosh," Avery said, his head reeling with the new information. "Claws, werewolves, protectors...add witches to the list?" he asked, his voice raising, "This is ridiculous!"

Avery's breathing slowed, and he stared levelheadedly at the two people in front of him. "So now what?" he asked them.

"Okay," Avery said, slowly, still not being able to believe the fact that he had claws.

This could work to my advantage he thought. "So you could give me whatever I wanted now your a witch?" Tara raised an eyebrow. Avery realised what he had just said sounded like. "I don't mean in that way" he stammered.

"Why are they threatening me?" Avery asked, "I don't recall having done anything wrong."
"It's not just you they're targeting...it's our whole family, Avery. And this is serious. It's not a joke," James told him.
