Claudia is a six-year-old vampire who wants a normal life. She is trapped inside a child's body, when truly, she is a woman. She lives with her two 'parents' Louis and Lestat, also, two vampires. I do not own Interview With A Vampire or any of these characters. They all own to Anne Rice.

Interview With The Vampire

*Claudia*

I sat in my room, staring at the scissors across from me, and twirling my finger through a strand of my golden hair. I hated it. I hated being a child so much, I wanted to grow old, live a normal life.

'Claudia?' Louis said softly, peeking in.

'What?' I said, looking at him, enraged.

He came in and closed the door, coming over and sitting beside me.

'Come on, Claudia, I know you're sad, but you can't sit in here forever.' He said calmly.

I stood up quickly, walking over and grabbing the scissors, 'But I hate being this way!' I screamed, 'I want to be normal! I want to be like all woman!'

Louis looked ashamed, 'Claudia, calm down and put the scissors back were they where.'

'What if I don't want to! What if every momet I just cut off a strand, yeah?' I put the scissors closer and closer to my hair, Louis tried to say something, but i'd had enough, I started cutting all my golden locks off, them falling to the floor. Louis stood up, 'Claudia! Claudia, stop.'

Once all my golden locks fell to the floor, so did I, putting my head into my hands and starting to sob. Louis kneeled down next to me, patting my hair, which had grown into long golden curls once again. 'I just want to be normal.' I sobbed into his lap.

'I know, I know Claudia, I do, too.' he said, pressing his lips to my forehead as I sat up, wiping the tears from my red eyes. He then got up, holding out his hand, I took it, him pulling me up and holding me steady.
