January 8th
Its been a while since I entered Claudia's room. I finally found the document. I had just enough time to look it over before she returned from her evening mass in the church. It seems Alessa has a much longer story than I expected. I should have knwon there was more to her story than what people let on.
It turns out that when a man named Harry Mason came to this town when I was merely 14 years of age, he brought with him the other half of Alessa that had been lost in the madness she suffered when her house was set on fire with her inside. That piece of information I already knew of. I didn't' know, however, When Harry tried t stop Alessa, she had given him her soul in a new child as a sympathy gift. When she 'died' she recreated herself for a second time! I was stunned by this incredible, yet horrifying news.
If Claudia manages to track her down using her sight, the god she intends to receive will, without a doubt succeed. Lucky for me, I researched a past document right out of Claudia's diary. Her father had told her about a seal, the seal of Metatron. The seal is the only thing that could stop this god from being born. I'm glad I managed to think ahead and find a possible stop to all of this madness in Claudia's brain. Claudia's sight rarely fails her, I know this from my own past experience. No doubt Claudia will discover Alessa soon. If I could locate Alessa first, I could possibly warn her ahead of time. I just hope Claudia fails miserably. I would love more than anything for one day, if she realized her god was nothing more than a n ingredient to stir up her own personal fantasies. I guess I know Claudia too well, Nothing in this world will ever stop her.
High school was one of the only years Claudia and I were on each others good side. I just wish I could have made her see the right way of thinking. She should never have claimed Dahlia Gillespie as her adoptive mommy. Dahlia was a crazy over-religious bitch in her time, its Claudia's turn to take the fall too I see. I can't do anything to stop her either… That is what sickens me the very most.
I can hear Claudia coming down the hall now. Her feet like to patter when she walks. Just the sound of the hard cold tile hitting those palled sticky feet is enough to strike curiosity in my heart. I wonder what she's thinking now, I wonder what she wants to do, I even begin to wonder if she knows I was in her room earlier on. I can imagine if she knew, she would have stormed her way over to my door and yelled at me in her usual superficial way.
I suppose I can't worry too much longer about Claudia and Alessa. The night is late tonight… I need my rest. I'll try searching for Alessa tomorrow. Anything to stop Claudia from winning. Claudia has to be stopped and fast… She's capable of anything and everything. Perhaps that's the reason I fear her so deeply, despite her petit frame.
Well, I'm off into the night. I intend to explore Claudia's room again tomorrow… Maybe farther back entries in her diary will tell me more. For now I dream of nothing more than a nice warm bed and a big fluffy pillow under my heavy head. For tonight, I'll dream… For tomorrow night, I'll plot out a way to stop Claudia dead in her tracks. Goodnight all.
