Claire POV.
I'm not dead, well I don't think I am although it does smell like death here where-ever here is... It wasn't Myrnin that had been in the lab. Most defiantly not Myrnin, it looked like him but he moved differently, he was more vicious and not the crazy vamp I know. A serious pain was shooting down my neck. Had François been at me again? I tried a groan but my throat had seized up it seemed a struggle just to breath. It can't have been Myrnin which had done this, could it? I attempted to open my eyes but it made no difference to the levels of black, oh my god where am I? A very small ray of light was clearing in my vision. I'm dying aren't I. A searing pain surged through my body I was in agony I started writhing in pain I was sure of it but i was so numb in pain it was impossible to know. I passed out and fell back into the dumb deep black of unconsciousness perhaps waiting for death.
Shane POV.
Eve and I were speeding through Morganville heading for Myrnin's lab, he was going to get it if had even touched Claire, the psycho. Where was Michael? We seriously needed him right now for vamp back-up! We turned into the end of the alley and jumped out of the car "You ready for this" I asked Eve "sure" she replied nervously so she obviously wasn't very confident about this rescue mission at all. We barged through the door and down the steps, stakes at the ready but before I even got a chance to injure some vampire skin i was flung across the room and hit the bookcase I was passing out i could tell but Eve, Claire they were both in danger right now and I was sat here doing nothing. My eyes started to close but the last thing I saw kept me awake for just another second, Myrnin but mentally pouncing onto Eve and her screams echoing around me.
