Preface
One year earlier: New York City
Midnight April 12- Madison square garden
"GOOD NIGHT NEW YORK!" I screamed and walked off stage to the sound of cheering people.
Grinning I walked into my dressing room and pulled out my phone and answered without looking at the caller ID.
"Hello?"
There was a long pause then the voice of a worried women on the other end.
"Um is this Anita Frost?" She asked sounding frustrated for some reason.
"Um…yes this is she, may I ask who is calling?"
The women let out a long breath.
"This is Ms. Natasha Caine, I'm Claire's mother….Claire has been missing for almost a week….we got into a fight after I told her she couldn't go to New York to see then just disappeared." She said and I could tell she was really upset.
"Wait what?" I asked stunned.
"Is Claire there with you? The police haven't found anything to suggest she's been kidnapped, so she must have run away again." She said and the distain that dripped from her voice made me tense and remember why Claire had a reputation for running away from home.
"Ms. Caine, Claire isn't here….What makes you think she ran away again?" I asked and heard her let out a huff of frustration.
"After the fight she ran up to her, yelling about needing to be alone and that she was going to Chaotic or some other place, and that she was going to be with someone who really loves her. Then I told her she wasn't going anywhere and when I opened her door she was gone and her window was wide open." She said sounding ticked off.
I blinked, why in the hell would Claire yell that she was going to chaotic like that? She knew better then to tell anyone who didn't reserved a special code about the truth behind Chaotic, so why had she done it? And who was other person?
"Ms. Caine I swear to you that Claire isn't here with me and to my knowledge she isn't dating anyone….also this doesn't sound like how Claire normally runs away." I said remembering the one summer Claire had run away from home and had stayed at Disney Land for the whole summer only to come back two days before our junior year of high school.
Claire's words replayed in my mind when I asked her why she had bothered to run away in the first place when she always came back.
'It's my way of seeing if my parents give a damn about me. When I run away I stick around long enough to see how long it takes for them to notice I'm gone, this time it had took them a week to figure out that I was actually gone.'
I had never meet Claire's parents before but judging by Ms. Caine's irritated tone, the women wouldn't be winning any mother of the year awards.
"Uh sure, look you tell Claire that her father and I have had enough of her nonsense and have changed the locks on the house. She still has her trust fund and if she ever decided to come home she can collect her things but we are not letting her back inside this house." Ms. Caine said then hung up.
"Bitch." I said into the silence, then ran to my computer.

:Guys, We have a serious problem.:
Musicsage- : What's up?:
Musicmister-: Hey lady's, what's going on?
Janeblame-: Hey Anita, didn't you just finish up with your concerted?:
FrostGirl-: Claire's mom just called me and told me that she ran away:
Musicsage-: That's nothing new, remember that time she ran away half way through our freshmen year? She came back right before finals with that tattoo and knew how to play the guitar.:
Janeblame-: Or what about that time she ran away after prom? she not only managed to TP ever house in that up class gated community she lives in but trash Ginny Luke's Car, Shaved off Her ex's eyebrow and spray paint 'CC's love for you lays with the fishes' on Mister O'Connor's class room door, then somehow rigged it to rain rotten fish down onto him when he entered the classroom.:
Musicmister-:I still can't believe she was dating that creep for almost a year without telling us.:
Frostgirl-: This time is different. She yelled at her mom and told her she was going to Chaotic.
…
Janeblame-: Your serious? Why in the would she tell her mom that!:
Musicsage-: Your joking right? You must be joking.:
Musicmister-:What the hell was she thinking!:
Frostgirl-:IT gets worse.:
Janeblame-:How much worse?:
Frostgirl-: She told her mom that she was going to be with someone who really loved her, then she was just gone.:
Musicsage-: I didn't know she was seeing anyone.:
Musicmister-:Me either.:
Janeblame-: Any idea as to who it is?:
Frostgirl-: Until Claire's mom called I had no idea that she was dating anyone…you don't think it's a creature.:
Janeblame-: HELL No, one what creature would want to date Claire? Most of them see us as an annoyance not as something to date.:
Musicsage-:Plus, most creatures are much bigger then us so I think being intimate with one is out.:
Musicmister-:What made you think it might be a creature Anita?:
….
Frostgirl-:It's just something Claire said to be a few weeks ago. She told me that she always wondered what it would be like to…to have sex with a creature…especially an underworlder like Agitos.:
Musicmister-: Okay one that is just sick. Two even if she was dating am undereworlder it wouldn't be Agitos, he doesn't like humans period.:
Janeblame-: One you don't have to like someone in order to fuck them. Second Agitos may not like humans but he is an intelligent scholar and we have been wondering around Perim for a while now. Long enough to have some creatures ask questions about…our bodys. You can't tell me it hasn't crossed your mind once what it would be like to be with a female creature.:
Musicmister-: Fine you win, but I dought Agitos would risk his reputation in the underworld just for informational sex with a human.:
Frostgirl-:Regardless we need to head to Chaotic and see if she is there, maybe we can talk her into living with one of us…:
Musicsage-:Why can't she just go back to her parents?:
Frostgirl-: Her mom said that they changed the locks and aren't letting her back into the house.:
…
Janeblame-:Wow that is really harsh.
Musicmister-: But not surprising. Her parents are assholes.:
Musicsage-:You ever met them?:
Musicmister-: Yeah once, her dad is this pompous lawyer going for attorney general next election and her mom is this old miss America runner up, who is still pissed off at the other chick for winning.:
Frostgirl-:Look will talk about how much Claire's parents are assholes later, lets all meet in the portcourt and see if we can find anyone who has seen Claire in the last few day.
Musicmister-:K:
Janeblame-:Sure:
Musicsage-:On my way:
