Life sucks

Claire's POV

I was woken up by the shrill of the phone screaming in my ears. I picked it up from my nightstand table and it said Myrnin was calling. I groaned and put it to my damaged ears.

"What do you want Myrnin? It's 3 in the morning." I said harshly, I was pissed because he woke me up for possibly telling me that Bob the spider is really a girl, I wonder when he is going to figure that out."

"Well hello to you too, dear Claire. Well I need you to come to the lab immediately!" He practically shouted down the phone, making me hate him even more.

"Why?" I was confused as to why he was being so demanding. He isn't usually like this when he is sane and still has his manic moments even though the diseased cured him. The disease that Bishop plagued the vampires with which made then go crazy and monstrous. We found the cure and the vampires of Morganville were almost healthy, well healthy as a vampire can be.

"No time for explanations little Claire. Come to the lab this instant or I will eat you." He growled and the phone went dead.

I was anxious about going to the lab, I wasn't sure what to expect because I knew by now that he was in a crazy state and he would gladly carry out that threat.

I threw all my worries aside and got out of bed reluctantly and got dressed into a black strappy top and dark blue faded skinny jeans. I put on my black converse and crept downstairs, afraid to wake anyone up and think there was a vampire in the house. That's not a strange thing when you live in Morganville.

I grabbed Eve's car keys and walked out the door. I didn't want to walk because everyone that if you were outside at night, you were basically a walking blood bank. I drove quickly to Grandma Day's house, even though I wasn't walking outside didn't mean that I was still safe.

I got out of Eve's car and ran to the alley in which Myrnins lab is based. I walked into the lab but no one was there.

"Myrnin?" I called out to him starting to get wary and I had a right to if he was as crazy as he sounded on the phone.

I heard rustling coming from the left of me and quickly turned in that direction to find Myrnin looking through his fridge where his blood packets were. It was empty. He looked at me and stared in surprise as if he had no idea that I was coming.

"Ah Claire. What are you doing at this time in the morning? I was not expecting you for another 8 hours little one." He had a hungry look in his eyes that he was trying to control but the thirst was overpowering him.

"Mrynin, you called me, remember?" I felt even more uneasy when his eyes started to turn red and lingered on my neck as if he was imagining devouring it.

"Claire, you must leave and get Amelie to bring more blood. I'm very hungry." He looked desperate, he didn't want to hurt me but I knew that I had to leave or I would be his snack.

I ran to the door of the lab and was about to leave but I felt a hand gripping my arm tightly which turned me around to face a very hungry and scary looking Myrnin.

"Too late no Claire, you weren't fast enough. Now I get to eat you" Those were the final words that I heard until I saw his fangs descend and felt a sharp, stabbing pain in my neck. It felt like my life was being sucked out of me and technically it was. I tried to hold on but the blood loss was making me lose consciousness. I didn't want to die. Not now, not yet. I couldn't leave Eve and Michael or my parents. I couldn't leave Shane. I didn't even say goodbye. He's probably going to get in trouble again if I'm not there to hold him back from doing anything dangerous.

Their faces were the last things I saw until I slipped into unconsciousness.
