"Mommy! I cant breath help me!"

"Claire where are you? Claire! Please not her; please don't take her from me!"

"I warned you child, you crossed me, face the consequences."

Then everything went quite, and dark.

"Who are you?

"What's your name kid?"

"Umm my name? I don't know."

Present day

"Claire do you have to go" whined Billy.

"Yes I do hon; I'm too old to stay here and I promise I will come visit." She replied.

Claire was leaving the meadows orphanage where she had lived for the past 9 years. She doesn't remember much about her past. She was found at the age of 8 outside of a burnt house in Dallas Texas. The firefighters thought she was dead when they arrived. Once she was placed in the ambulance her eyes flashed white then she sat up screaming. She had no idea who she was or where she came from. She spent days in the hospital waiting for someone to claim her and explain to her who she was. She was smart for an 8 year old; she knew no one was coming for her. In the orphanage she often woke up from nightmares about a fire, and people screaming. She brushed them off and studied harder in school. She wanted to make a new life for herself.

I got into to some really good colleges, but I still can't decide which one I want to go to. For some reason the small university TPU is still my top choice." Why do you have to go?" Anna asked me. She was a little girl about 10 and looked up to me. "Because I want to get smarter" I told her as I laughed.

As I packed my bags to get ready to head off to college, the burn on my neck started to throb again. It usually only did that when I tried to think about my past. I brushed it off and load my bags on the bus. I turned around to say goodbye to my old life. I gave my hugs and kisses and bordered the bus.

I have no idea what time it was but when I woke up I saw the sign for Morganville and I was so excited I squealed. The old lady next to me on the bus just glared.

I got off the bus and felt like I was home. I pulled out my map to find some cheap places to live. I refuse to live in the dorms. I saw this Buffy episode one year totally scared me. "No thanks" I said out loud not realizing it, until the girl behind me spoke,

"Okay, even tho I didn't ask you anything yet." She said with a smile on her face.
