Chapter 0438

Nina

When we came out on the other side of the portal, we found ourselves standing in the middle of the athletic field where we had last gone through. The campus was alive with activity, and I could see students rushing around as they packed up their vehicles to go home for winter break.

The war was mostly over, after all. The Crescents had retreated to the place where they had set up their headquarters, and as Enzo and I walked back to campus with my father's guards at our heels, I quickly began to realize that it was safe enough outside of Mountainview for people to go home. Since the end of the semester had come around, it seemed as though many people were itching to get home to their families, who were no doubt worried about them.

"Why does everyone seem so confused?" I asked quietly as I looked around. "It's like they don't have any idea..." Suddenly, I heard a voice coming from behind me.

*They don't remember," Jessica's voice said. Enzo and I whipped around to see Jessica and Lori standing behind us, along with Matt and Luke. Before anything else was said, before I even thought to ask what she meant, all of us hugged tightly. I felt tears well up in my eyes as I hugged my friends.

"I'm so glad it's over," I whimpered as I hugged Lori and Jessica tightly. "I was so scared for you two..."

I felt initially worried that the Crescents had done something bad, but none of my friends seemed concerned about it. Both of us shook our heads, and Jessica laughed. "I guess the news didn't make it to you somehow," she said. "I'm assuming that Enzo was glued to your side while you slept, so maybe he didn't get the news from your dad.

I supposed that it was within my dad's best interests to keep the werewolf realm a secret; after all, it had always been that way for the most part. In fact, now that I thought about it, it made sense that no one except for Enzo and the other werewolves remembered the last fight between the Crescents and the Fullmoons twenty years ago.
