Anacosta Heights
Dupont Circle
Hawethorn Village
River Dale
Situated above the daily life of the city, Anacosta Heights is a tucked away suburb featuring extravagant neo-gothic inspired mansions. The inhabitants of this neighborhood often show their overwhelming wealth with sports cars lining their long, circular driveways, large pools, and manicured gardens. The homeowners of Anacosta Heights treasure their privacy as seen by the high iron gates to the security personnel present at every entrance.
Dupont Circle is a small suburban neighborhood settled within the serene portion of the southern portion of town. These four-bedroom, single-family homes feature back yards, porches, garages, and far more breathing space then the Village offers. This neighborhood often is more family orientated and even has organized events for children and the neighborhood as a whole.
Settled in the middle of downtown, Hawthorn Village consists of several victorian inspired row houses just off the main street. Due to it's convenience to just about everything, the village can be a tad expensive to live within. However, the residents of this neighborhood often have two to three-story townhouses, often with a one to two-car garage. Many of the houses feature bay windows and/or rooftop terraces with a small fenced-in 'yard'.
River Dale primarily consists of apartments that, despite their age and industrial appearing interior, still hold to the Victorian history that permeates the town. These apartments are often the cheapest option and sport scuffed, older wooden floors, open floor plans, visible beams, and the occasional brick wall.
I must admit I am surprised that I have been alive this long. It wasn't the injuries I sustained that I was so concerned about. My arm and leg were not as bad as before, but strangely enough I was already starting to heal rather quickly. Which I must admit is truly odd. Uncle said it was because of the changes that were going inside me. The closer I was coming to the dates of the full moon the more I felt the effects. I've already begun to notice my Uncle's change in demeanor. He isn't looking me in the eye anymore. He is flinching now when I am in the room as if my very presence ills him. I can walk with a slight limp, but my Uncle told me that after I changed from Horse to Human then I would be completely healed thanks to...my curse. I've noticed how he approaches me he actually slinks towards me almost as if he is hunting me even though we are inside his apartment. I've seen him take out his weapons far more than usual. Typically they are hidden, but now I constantly see them, but I wonder if it is because I am sensing that he is dangerous to me. My own Uncle. He warned me that our relationship will be more tense than usual and it will be difficult for us both to adjust, but he did remind me that I was still his niece. It was comforting to know that he still saw me as a blood relation, but I am not sure that will continue after tonight.
My Uncle told me that I needed to sleep and rest easy, because he promised me that I would not be well tonight. He claimed that I will be in much pain and told me if I could not handle it I was allowed to request him something so very terrible that neither one of us could say it. I must admit that I had a terrible time trying to keep myself at ease. I had been reading over the books my Uncle had about Weres and I have to admit I am not looking forward to the first change. I tried looking up ways how to prepare myself or know what I needed to do, but nothing in the books warned me for anything. It seemed that the Were population didn't want everyone to know all the details. Ashamed really. I had shut the curtains to the window, they were thick enough to block out the sun and keep my bedroom cool and dark. As I slept I could actually feel the moon come closer as the sun continued to stay in the sky. As I sleep I see nothing but darkness as my mind begins to tear and pull itself apart. As I sleep I can feel a soft brush along my arm and I must admit I find it distracting. Slowly my blue eyes flutter open and I see a familiar blurry image, and as I turn myself completely over I see the familiar violet eye staring right back at me. Slowly I ease myself out from my covers as I begin to slip out of the bed, still dressed in raggedy jeans and a faded t-shirt.
As I ease myself to stand I wince slightly feeling the familiar twinge of pain along my ribs and leg as I shuffle towards him. I tip-toe as silently as I possibly can as I head towards the desk that holds a small backpack, pulling it over my shoulder as I grab a nearby pen and paper and scribble a note for my Uncle, wanting him to know that I am going with Frost to change and that I would be back soon...as a human. I look over at Frost for a moment and then I quickly look away as I head towards the window. Pulling the curtains back and getting myself onto the fire escape I go down the stairs slowly, trying to keep it from squeaking, concerned should my Uncle see Frost here. When we reach the ground I place my hands into my pockets as I simply limp behind him as the sun continues to set. It is an odd silence between us. Tense and yet not because we were angry at one another, I think, we were both anxious about what was to come. When we reach were he wants to be I stand behind him looking at the ground until I look up at the back of his head, speaking softly.
"I don't know which one of you bit me, but...whoever it was...I don't blame you. Do you have any advice?"
