Trysten walked through the abandoned tunnels of Chicagos past.  The shells of previous incarnations of the city that had burned too the ground,  only too be built on top of.  He ha spent a lot of time down here, but even so the map had led him too a section he had never seen before.  Everything about this seemed fishy, especially the letter.  He just woke up and found it on the ground next too him, with a map and promise of others like him.  Trysten had lots of people who would like too see him gone, everyone did in this cities underbelly, but what made him listen too the letter was this.  Whoever put it there could have easily just slit his throat and been done, so why would they make him follow a treasure map just too kill him then?<br/><br/>He arrived at the X on the map and found a door, with the words do not enter written on it.  Looking down at the map, it says "ignore the sign".  Well, Trysten never was one too follow orders.<br/>As he opened the door and walked through, he found himself in a train station, filled with magical creatures of all kinds.  The train hadn't arrived yet so he started walking towards where it would be, looking around and absorbing the scene.  As he walked he noticed that there was two groups of people who the others didn't seem to agree with.  First were people with tails, some had scales, one he saw had bat wings.  Demons, he guessed, and by the looks of it everyone hated them.  The second group looked like the other magical creatures, except that they looked more human, less magical.  Half-breeds, like him.  While demons we're hated, half-breeds where mocked, brutally.  Great, that meant that he sat on the corner of hate and mockery as a half-demon.<br/><br/>As he walked across the station, people seemed obliged too ruff him up as much as possible, though most didn't seem to want to openly confront him.  When he approached the tracks, what looked like Edward from Twilight's little brother walked into his path and shoved his shoulder hard.  Trysten took a step back and managed too stop himself from falling over.<br/>"Hey, in case you're too dumb too notice, no one wants you here."  Mini-Eddy said with a acidic sneer.<br/>"I did actually," Trysten responded, "I just don't care."  He then started walking towards a empty bench a little too the right.  The vampire walked back into his way again and pushed him again.<br/>"You're a half demon, you're the biggest freak here, and have no right too go too the same school as us."<br/>"And again, I don't care.  Push me again and I will defend myself."  Trysten said, walking back towards the bench.  The vampire didn't budge, and again tried to push Trysten.  Trysten grabbed onto the vampires arm and twisted it behind his back with one hand, while putting his other hand around the knife in his jacket.  He then pushed himself real close too the vampire, so no one could see the knife as it presses against his chest, in between the ribs so it could puncture multiple organs almost instantly.  The vampire froze deathly still.  Trysten whispered into the vampires ear, quietly so no one heard him.<br/>"I want you too ask yourself a question, and think very hard on it.  Is it worth making yourself feel better by picking on me, when I can hurt you very badly? Now, run along and leave me alone.  And if I see you picking on another student, demon, halfling, or both I will break your arm.  Alright?"  Trysten then kicked out the vampires legs from under him, letting him fall heavily too the ground as he slipped the knife back into his jacket.<br/><br/>When they train arrived Trysten sat in an apartment next the back, and watched as almost every half-breed sat back there.  As coins flew around the cabin Trysten let out a long sigh and closed his eyes.  This was going too be a long year.
