The final rays of sunlight struck the small town of Athens, Oklahoma when a stranger sundered through. Athens was a small farming community in the heart of Oklahoma, quite, and boring as any small town. On this night things would change forever.

I've got to hurry, she'll be pissed if I'm to late home I thought as I ran through the streets to my beloved. Work had gotten out late because of a large order. 

All of a sudden I was startled by a man who looked as if he came from nowhere. "Who are you?" I asked.

It was odd to see someone new in town, especially at night.

The stranger stared at me for a moment with dark eyes and then said, "Your different then they are."

"Excuse me?" I asked.

"Your aura is... Twisted and much stronger then these filthy humans." He sneered. "What are you?" He asked looking suspicious.

"I don't know what you mean, I'm just me. Look I need to get home before my fiancée Kills me. I don't have time to deal with you, or your crazy ass thoughts on humanity." I told the stranger then went on my way home.

I finally got home to Dani, and she was passed out on the couch. I woke her up, and took her to bed.

I started towards my study thinking of the oddball I met in town. He said something about aura... I hadn't dabbled in magic since I was a teenager. Even then it was more of an academic study. I'm a Christian, I can't go back to that, I had urges but for God's sake this is the Bible belt people would go ballistic if they heard anything about it.

I decided to write a quick entry about the stranger in my journal, and go to bed. This will all just be a memory when I wake up...
