CHAPTER TWO:
IN WHICH
THE REST
OF
CLARINE'S
STORY IS TOLD
I am not warmth, yet I am light.
I am not warm yet I bring comfort.
I woke up to something breaking, and whispers in the kitchen. "Dammit. Well so much for sneaking in." said one of the whispers. Slowly and quietly, I got out of my bed leaving the warmth and comfort behind. I slowly reached for the door. The voice in the back of my mind dying to call out for my mother.
I slowly peaked behind the cracked door. There were three men. Two of them were holding my mothers lifeless body while the third one was a look out. As I peered through the door I felt an anger seep through me like never before. I swiftly ran at the supervisor and grabbed him by his throat. As I was holding on for dear life, frost rose out of my fingertips and he became completely frozen. Suddenly my body started convulsing and started moving on its own.
In only a few seconds I managed to freeze the other two. I ran to my mother. "Mother?" "Love," came a weak reply, "You have to leave now." "But what about you?" I asked tears welling up in my eyes "Listen, you have to leave. Don't worry about me love." her hand cupped my face as she slowly slipped away. As soon as the night ended, she was gone and I was alone. Forever.
I dragged her lifeless body out to the backyard. And froze her with my sorrow and tears. I entered the house and the memories and realization hit me with full force. I ignored it and packed myself a bag and headed out of town when the first rays of sunlight hit the church bell.
I made it to London in a few days but at that time I had run out of food and water by that time. It got so bad to the point of passing out. But that didn't stop me.
As I limped around the streets of London, I ran into a boy and we both ended up on the ground. "I'm very sorry. Please, let me help you." I said reaching out my hand. He slapped it away, and widened his eyes. "Your hand…It's so cold." he replied. "It is?" I replied. He nodded. "Sabastian," He said with a powerful voice. "Take this girl to the carriage. We are going home immediately." "Yes, My lord." replied the tall man who was following the small child.
He picked me up and slugged me over his shoulder. He set me down in the light of the carriage and before I could even let myself be surprised, I slumped over and fell asleep
.
"She's a beauty, yes she is." said a shrill voice. I couldn't exactly place them but the sounded like they were around me.
"She's like and angel."
"But she's really pale. Is she sick?"
"Oh, she's waking up." I felt my eyes open to three people circled around me. There was a maid with red hair and really thick glasses, a boy with strawberry blonde hair and a man with dirty blonde hair and a scraggle of a beard.
I lifted myself off the pillow and swung my legs over the side of the bed.
"Y-you shouldn't do that miss." said the maid
"I'm fine." I said coldly and walked out the door and left them in silence.
I didn't know where I was going, but I just kept walking. After a while, I ran into the man who put me in carriage.
"Miss, you shouldn't be up now." he said with a fake smile.
"Quit the fake smile," I said glaring at him. "I'm not sick." I replied.
"Well since your not sick I can take you to my young master." he said smiling even more.
"Fine," I replied. "But drop that smile. It's creepy."
Before we entered the office, Sabastian knocked on the door. And waited for a muffled 'come in', before entering.
"Young master, your guest is here."
The young child humped and spun his chair around to face me.
"You should be in bed." he said with frown.
"I'm not sick." I replied.
"Then why are you so cold to the skin?"
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you."
He smirked and chuckled a little. "Try me."
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. "I have the power to turn and bend ice by my will." I replied.
He widened his eyes for a split second and strait up laughed in my face. After his good and hearty laugh he said, "No, seriously. This is no joke."
"I am serious." I said my glare not faltering.
I felt the ice build up in my body and race to my fingertips as I created the ice dragon.
He and Sabastian couldn't hide their state of shock.
"I told you." I said smirking and admiring my work.
"Do you have a home?" he asked
"Not anymore." I replied.
"Then how about you stay here and work for me."
I thought about it for a second and nodded.
"You must promise never to lie to me, and to obey me under any circumstances."
"Yes sir." I replied.
And from that day on, I came to work at the phantom hive mansion.
