The Current month is May, the famous L.A. heat is beginning to set in.
Semesters are ending in most of the academies as finals are approaching. A lot of students are also preparing to head home for the summer, at least those who have somewhere to go.
Unknown to L.A.s inhabitants, the supernaturals of this world have created a system of underground passages they used to hide from the hostile humans above. The tunnels are in disrepair, but many vampires, including the circle, still find them useful.
