The wind stirred Crystal's dark hair in the wind as she took a seat at the swings. Her combat boot covered feet kicked up dirt as she began to swing back and forth just to go something as she thought. It felt nice to work out her arms and legs getting her blood pumping. There had to be a way to get everyone to realize that this town wasn't safe anymore. Not that it was terrible safe to begin with. But now it was worse cause of the vampires, even some of the werewolves were starting to attack other towns people. A shiver ran up her spine thinking about everything she'd seen in the past couple of years.
Sighing, her eyes turned up to the sky starting to get desperate for a plan. No one would believe her if she told someone and pictures now a days could be edited so no one would believe that. Same thing with video tapes. There wasn't to much hope for Crystal's master plan to make people stop coming into town.

Werewolves weren't like vampires. At least the one's from Greece weren't. She hadn't seen a single one in the town yet. It was as if she was the only one there. It sort of made her wish she hadn't moved away from everyone. Back home they never changed, only when the were forced, but then they would stay out of the night, as to not harm someone. Here she was the same. Alisa didn't change to her wolf form at all!
The dark headed girl remembered how back then, if her and her friend changed it would mean getting in trouble. They were forbidden to change, just so the people wouldn't know what lived there. She hated carrying the burden that she had to hide. But it was hers to carry no one else's. Her denim blue eyes gazed over the park, before they landed on another girl on a swing.
Alisa hadn't been on a swing set for so long, since she was back in Athens. She hoped the girl wouldn't mind, and she took steps her way, before asking her question a small smile on her face. "Mind if i swing with you?" Alisa didn't act her age.. she was still stuck in the teen years, even if she was still young.

Glancing up, breaking out of her day dreaming, Crystal was a little shocked to see a girl standing in front of her. A smile spread over her lips as she nodded, happy for the company. "Not at all, go ahead." She nudged her head to the swing next to her. "I haven't seen you around before. You new?" Slowly she all but stopped swinging and just sat.
She could have sworn she knew just about everyone here, even the tourist where easy to tell apart from the locals. Crystal took out a pack of chewing gum from her pocket and placed a stick in her mouth, chewing on the minty substance. "Want some?" Her hand held out the pack to the new girl, she'd been raised to have some sort of manners. "I'm Crystal by the way."

Her smile seemed to become brighter when the girl said she could join, and she nudged her to sit in the swing next to her. Which Alisa did, she moved the swing back and forth a little, lettering her feet drag. It had been for ever since she sat on one, it seemed to make her feel more like a kid. Though she acted like one with out any help at all.
"Thank you. And no I'm not new, I've been in this town for three years. Are you? I don't think I've seen you before." Her denim eyes stayed on the ground and her hair moved around her while she made the swing move more. Though her shoes continued to drag on the ground, she wasn't short like a little kid, but even theirs would drag.
Alisa didn't get out much, she went to the same old places, though she wasn't one to meet everyone in the town and know them, she didn't know the girl. "I'm Alisa; sure." She took a piece from the girl, before sticking a piece in her mouth.

Crystal watched the girl for a bit before placing the pack back in her pocket after she took a piece. "Sadly, I've been here my whole life." She sighed and shook her head, staring up at the sky, shrugging after a minute. "So where did you move here from?"
It seemed odd to her that anyone would want to live here. She still couldn't understand why her parents had picked this place out all the other towns and counties in the state. Tucking a lock of her hair behind her ear, her pale blue eyes glanced over at Alisa. She seemed kind of out of place to Crystal. Not in a bad way. Just that this town didn't seem like a place that agreed with her. But Crystal pushed that out of her mind. For all she knew this girl loved it here.

The two wasn't how she thought it had been when she first came, that was for sure. She was use to her own kind being at places. Knowing who was what. Though here it was diffrent, she couldn't tell if someone was her own kind, there wasn't any for all she knew. Though she could tell what others where, she knew the girl was human, and it didn't bother her, many where either vampires or humans.
"I came here form Athens, Greece. Long ways, though i thought a change would be good. It feels just the same though." That was how she felt. Though the place felt the same, but with out her kind. It just felt like back home, which was kind of boring to her, but she still stayed and she didn't know why.

"Wow, Greece? Awesome. How long did you live there?" Crystal stared at the girl, knowing it was rude but couldn't help it. She so wanted out of this town badly, but for now she didn't have enough money and she still had a duty to warn everyone about the preying vampires and deranged werewolves.
Don't get her wrong. Crystal was more than sure some of the werewolves weren't like the ones here but she still had to tell everyone before more people went missing.
"I'm not surprised you think that. Nothing really happens here..." Somewhat the truth. Nothing happened around here. Not unless a famous band decided to pay a short visit here, but that was rare at best.

"Well, i was born there, and i moved when i was seventeen, and I'm twenty now." She had really wanted to leave Greece after so long. Mainly because it was her home, and she grew tired of it after a while. That was just her maybe, maybe other people didn't think like the dark headed girl. She had always felt closed in back in Greece. Though she loved everyone dearly, they could become annoying at times.
Just like every other person in the world. She wasn't the only one whom got tired of home; she was sort of tired of the town. Though she wished to get away for a while, go on a road trip, something she hadn't done before. She had the money, but she couldn't get someone to go with her!
Alisa hadn't seen something that happened there, though she waited for the moment that something did, but so far she had lost hope that something would happen. "I'm sure something will happen at some point. It's not like the town will stay normal forever. Something has to come along."

"Hmm...I suppose so." Crystal shrugged and started to swing again. "I'm just so bored here. Doing the same thing day in and day out. I like doing things not sitting around and watching the clouds roll by." Sighing yet again, she kicked her legs more and more to get the swing to go higher. Eventually she was going faster and higher to the point it felt like she was flying.
A deep need sprang up in Crystal to go for a walk so she slowed down the swing. "You feel like walking around town or something?" Her eyes turned over to the other girl as she smiled.

Alisa laughed slightly. "That's why i left Greece, i came here hoping something would be diffrent. I had never been allowed to leave home, so far the place is even duller! I wished to go on a road trip, but known would seem to want to get away from the town for a while. I don't get why though. There can't be something that holds them attached to the place, is there?' She had to ask the last thing, the girl had been there longer than she had.
She smiled, brighter than ever before, she liked this girl. She reminded her of the people back home, mainly of her and her best friend. She was like her, she wanted to leave the place she had known all of her life. "Why not."

"I'm not sure." Crystal shook her head as she got off the swing. "Every time I asked my parents if we could just pack up and leave they told me to stop talking suck no sense." Shrugging, she smiled at Alisa kindly. "My thoughts exactly. I wanted to go out and explore see what else the whorld has to offer beyond small towns."
Her foot kicked a rock as she turned her eyes up to the sky, the sun still had a few hours until it set. They were covered from the vampires for now. "I still can't understand the attraction to this place. Why do people come here and visit? How can you want to come to a place where tourist go missing every week?" Crystal couldn't help but voice her thoughts about the town to someone. No one else would listen to her.

She got off the swing, after it had swung back to the front, she had jumped off of it, landing perfectly straight up as though she had done it so much in her life. Which she didn't. It would take a normal person a while she be able to do it without having to bend there knees. Though Alisa wasn't human, she was a werewolf. The two things where a like, but then again so far apart from one another.
"I don't know why i came her, i guess i felt an attraction to the town? Not sure. I saw the sign and it seemed like it was calling me. I guess that's what happens to everyone else, though it's a silly though." It was something to laugh about. At least to her. To think a town could lure people in, for what reason?
Alisa had noticed that more vampires seemed to make up the population, and the humans she meet seemed to be changed the next time she would meet them. Though some where still the same, and she was happy about that.
