Shane's Pov:

Today was the day Claire was being released from hospital, I was so excited to get my new baby home; Michael had told me they'd washed our bedding which was good news because when I get home I want to sleep. We were having a small party back at the house so I wasn't allowed to sleep as Claire told me a few minutes ago. Michael and Eve had come to pick us up, bringing the baby car seat with them.

"Hello Claire how are you feeling?" Michael asked

"Sore, very sore and tired"

"Well you're definitely going to be tired from now on"

"Yeh thanks for reminding me"

"No problem but don't worry Eve and I will help whenever you need to sleep and I'll even take the night shifts if you want" he said and smiled

"Thanks Michael that means a lot" she said and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek

"Hey Eve can you help me get changed please"

"Yeh sure, I've got your clothes here; Shane you get Alyssa ready to go home"

"Yeh ok"

Eve and Claire left to go to the bathroom. I picked up my beautiful baby girl and put her in her new car seat; it was so complicated; Michael had to help me out. He had already started taking some of the presents down to the car. Alyssa was sitting happily in her seat watching us hard at work. Claire and Eve returned shortly after, Claire looking a lot better than she had before; I couldn't wait to have my skinny, sexy Claire back, not that fat, pregnant Claire wasn't sexy. I carried Lyssa's car seat in one hand and put my other arm around Claire's waist. We had to take the long way down to the basement so Michael wasn't burnt. Eve and Michael took the front and Claire and I took the back with Alyssa in between us. Michael's driving was really fast so it didn't take us long before we got home. Myrnin, Amelie, Oliver, Kathy and my dad were already there when we opened the door. Myrnin was the first to come to us, he pulled Claire into a tight hug and then turned to me, at first I thought he was going to give me a hug but he just reached down and took Alyssa from her seat. She was actually happy about it; I think she's like her mum; not wanting to be left behind because she was too young. We were all sitting down for some food, Myrnin still had Alyssa in his arms; she'd drifted off ages ago but Myrnin seemed fascinated by her so we just left it.

"Myrnin can I ask you something?" Claire asked

"What would that be my dear?" he said not even looking up from Alyssa

"You know the night of the accident; I was looking through your boxes"

He froze where he was sitting and looked up slowly, the look in his eyes made me very nervous

"Claire I think I know what you're going to ask me but I'm not sure I should tell you" he said and stood up

"Stop right there Myrnin! Sit down" Claire yelled and he did she pulled Alyssa out of his arms

"If you want to be uncle Myrnin then you will tell me who she is"

"Who are you talking about?" I asked

"That night I found a photo of a woman, she looked exactly like me but she was wearing Victorian clothing; she had the same name as me too"

"Claire…"

"Tell me Myrnin I have a right to know"

He looked at Amelie who nodded

"She's your grandmother, she's 200 years older than Amelie and I; she turned me and was my partner. She had a daughter before she was turned but had to give her up as she was a vampire, she hated what Adrian did to her so she killed him; I have no idea how she did it because he was 70 years older than her but she did. She's a lot like you, very clever, strong…"

"Oh Myrnin you're forgetting beautiful" a voice said my behind

We all turned around and there stood Claire! No it wasn't Claire, she was leaning on me. This woman looked exactly like Claire, but more evil and a slightly bit better looking; but that was down to being a vampire. She was wearing a very short red dress, it should've made her look like a slut but it didn't; it looked amazing. My Claire let out a gasp.

"Claire what are you doing here?" Myrnin asked clearly surprised

"I've come to see my great, great, great, great etc granddaughter's new baby girl; may I have a hold of Alyssa?"

My Claire was just frozen next to me, her mouth dropped open. The vamp Claire came over and took her out her arms.

"What a beautiful child, she smells nice too but don't worry I won't eat her" vamp Claire said with an evil smile on her face.

"Claire I have to say we do look very similar don't we"

"Why are you here?" my Claire whispered

"To see the newest Danvers"

"It's Collins actually" I muttered

"I'm sorry did you say something boy because you know I could kill you in seconds and none of these vampires could stop me"

I gulped.

"Don't talk to him like that" Claire said

Uh oh! Claire please don't say anything

"What did you say?" vamp Claire asked

"I said don't speak to him like that"

"And what makes you think you can tell me what to do?" she laughed

"When you're talking to my husband and holding my baby I have every right to" she shot back

The smile dropped off vamp Claire's face, everyone in the room stopped as she growled; Alyssa started crying. The two Claire's were both looking at each other. My Claire got up and walked over to the other Claire and tried to take the crying Alyssa but the vamp Claire pulled away.

"Give me my baby now!" my Claire said very calmly but her voice was filled with anger

Alyssa was screaming now, vamp Claire was gently rocking her but it wasn't working; the wailing continued.

"Now!" my Claire yelled and grabbed Alyssa from her arms, Alyssa was slowly calming down in her mothers arms; something I thought was so cool.

"You really think you can do that?" vamp Claire asked and stepped forward towards Claire and the baby

"I don't think, I know" my Claire was backing away towards the sofa

Vamp Claire's eyes changed to ice white, my Claire still had the baby in her arms and then all of a sudden my Claire dropped to her knees and screamed, everyone stepped forward but they where propelled backwards by vamp Claire; Alyssa was screaming again. Vamp Claire raised her hands and then Alyssa was being lifted from my Claire's arms and gliding through the air to vamp Claire. My Claire was panting on the floor, reaching out for Alyssa but she couldn't move; her body flipped and twisted as if she were having an electric shock. Blood coming from her nose and mouth, her whole body turning white like she was dying and then Alyssa and my Claire screeched, I didn't understand what was happening but vamp Claire's face twisted in pain and she dropped the baby, everyone screamed but my Claire grabbed her before she could reach the floor. I felt my heart beat slowly return to normal as I saw my baby back in the safe arms of her mother.
