Turns out there was this war going on about werewolves and vampires, according to Jes. She said that there are two sides, the one where people should treat vampires and werewolves equally and the one who wants werewolves and vampires to be enemies and for vampires to be of a higher status. I'm on the side where they should be equal. Jes said she's fighting in the battle and I decided I would go too, so I can try to convince everyone to be on my side. The battle begins at midnight so I stayed up and waited in Jes' house until it started. When it got to midnight, i went to the battlefield. It was a place with lots of trees and autumn leaves on the ground. There were hundreds of people of each side and some, I noticed, were vampires and werewolves. I also saw some witches but I've never seen a vamp or werewolf before. The war began and i saw Jes charge into one of the enemies. I was really pumped up. I had no idea Jes was the kind of person who would be in a battle though. She's more of a girly girl. But when it comes to battles, it looks like she's a fighter. I really wanted to help so I stepped out and punched someone. He doubled over. I was kinda scared after that because I just realized then that he was a vampire. He had dark brown hair, pale skin and brown eyes. He was muscular but not that muscular, slim and graceful. He lunged at me and I got into the fight. I started getting used to his blows to my face and all, dodging his attempts. Once or twice he would actually get a good punch to my face though. I knew he was a good fighter, he was just playing with me. I decided to take my iPod out of my pocket and press play. Now, I was fighting him while music ( bad romance by lady gaga) was on. I know it was kinda weird of me but I'm like that. I prefer things to be going on with music playing. I saw my enemy's mouth begin to curve into a smile. I guess he was having more fun now. We started to fight and do punches and stuff like that in time with the beat and it was so funny. It was like we were dancing. I said 'vampires and werewolves should be equal.'

His smile turned upside down as he was halfheartedly strangling me. 'no, vampires should be of a higher status,' he growled. His grip tightened.

'whatever happened in the past was the past, you're meant to move on. It can be hard but you should still try to move on. Werewolves deserve another chance. Everyone should get another chance.'

'werewolves don't deserve another chance if they've killed thousands of people, thousands of vampires, just so they can feed on us! The werewolves bite the people, the vampires turn the people into vampires too so they get another chance of living and the people live unhappy, immortal lives as vampires, watching everyone they love die before their very eyes while they stay young forever. My own grandfather became a vampire because of those dogs, and after that, he couldn't take immortality, so he killed himself!'he yelled.

'would your grandfather have wanted this? A war? More blood spilled?!' I yelled, raising my voice even higher. I talked to him more about how it's only fair to be equal with the werewolves and stuff like that. I'm not going into too much detail of our conversation. I took me a while until he decided to agree with me. There was a pause before he said, 'no. You are right. We should forget the past. I will convince this war to end.' After that, he eventually convinced everyone that werewolves should be of equal status to vampires. Turns out, he was the leader of the people who wanted to make werewolves of a lower class. After the battle was over, many were injured but none were lost. The vamp I was fighting introduced himself as Eric. Eric Herondale. I asked him if he could teach me how to fight like him. He agreed but in return I have to teach him about the real world. I have to meet him in Aronwood forest at around 8am so he could train me there. It was a deal.
