But enough of my brothers life here's chapter 3
~Skye
Claire woke up to a black room where she only stood looking around for an exit.
"Well look who it is."
"What do you want with me Aylssa?" Demanded Claire.
"Oh i'm sorry have i made little Claire angry?" Asked Aylssa in a sickly sweet voice.
"YES! I am fed up with this. I don't know what you want with me or how you are even here!"
"Well lets just say that i am...mmm what's the word? Oh yes board. And you miss Claire is my new game to play."
"So you're just messing with me so you can have some entertainment?"
"Yeah. But it's very amusing watching my brother worry sickly over you when you kill him in the end."
"NO! That's not gonna happen. I will never turn out like that girl!"
"Well i am sorry Claire, but, you are that girl. One day you finally face reality and kill your friends who are actually like everyone else in this town."
"And what do you know what this town is like? YOU DIED!"
"LIKE I DON'T KNOW THAT BITCH! I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THIS TOWN FOR THE PAST 6 YEARS AND I KNOW THINGS THAT NOT EVEN THE VAMPIRES IN THIS TOWN KNOWS!"
"And what would that be?" "That's for you to find out when you turn over to the real you. Sweet dreams Claire." Aylssa said sweetly before vanishing in thin air.

Claire jolted straight up in bed and gasped for breath. Shane quickly reacted and pulled her into his chest calming her down and stroking her hair and reassuring her that she was safe.
"Shhhh, it's OK Claire, it was only a dream." After a couple of minutes Claire finally calmed down and slouched into Shane's chest.
"You OK?" He asked gently while he tucked a curl behind her ear.
"No. No i'm not OK. I feel terrible and weak."
" Do you want something to eat?"
"Not really."
"Claire, eat a little of something, please. You haven't eaten anything all day."
"OK, i'll have a sandwich or a cracker."
"OK, come on, lets take you downstairs." Shane said as he wrapped a blanket around her and carried her bridal style down the stairs and into the lounge room. But when they turned the corner they did not want to see what was happening.
"Guys, little kid right here who doesn't need to see the adults going at it like dogs." Said Shane as he went behind the wall so they couldn't look into the lounge room. Claire was confused by what Shane said but when she heard clothing being put on and belts doing up she realized then and there what they were doing. A couple of seconds passed when Eve came round the corner fast with her hair disheveled and her button up shirt not buttoned up properly.
"Hey CB how you feeling?" Asked Eve trying to act normal.
"Hey Eve what were you doing?" Asked Claire and Eve went bright red.
"Ah you know just doing a few jobs around the house." Claire and Shane were trying really hard to stifle their laughter but failed badly.
"OK who wants coffee? Coffee sounds really good right now doesn't it?" Said Eve rushing past Shane and Claire and into the kitchen turning on the kettle. Micheal just stood there awkwardly starring and Shane who had a massive goofy smile on his face.
"So... How are you feeling Claire?" Asked Micheal changing the topic. "
I'm OK. Tired and weak but OK." She said as Shane moved her into the living room and was about to place her down on the counch when Shane straightened up and starred at Micheal. And as seriously as Shane could speak asked Micheal,
"Where did you and Eve roll in the hay?"
"Really Shane 'Roll in the hay'? Is that the best thing to come up with?"
"OK would you rather me say pow-chic-a-wa-wa, bang, screw, knock-up, watcha gonna do wit all that junk, all that junk inside that trunk, fa-shizzle my nizzle, friction in the sheets. Do you want me to go on here Micheal cause i can go on for hours." Said Shane seriously. Claire on the other hand tried really hard to stifle her laughter but failed when she saw the embarrassing look on Micheal's face and she just lost it. Claire started laughing in Shane's arms and couldn't stop. Micheal finally cleared his throat and with a very red face said,
"On the love seat." Then left the room in a hurry. Shane joined in with the laughing and gently put Claire down on the couch. Once their laughing died down Shane kneel down beside Claire's head and gently put some of her hair behind her ear.
"You feeling OK?" He asked with a soft genuine smile.
"Yeah i'm doing OK. You?"
"I'm doing pretty good. Do you want something to eat or drink?"
"Yeah coffee sounds good." Shane nodded and kissed Claire on the forehead before wondering into the kitchen to get her some. Once Shane left the room she looked up to the ceiling that was directly where Amelie's secret room was. While Claire waited for Shane she thought she heard something falling down upstairs and put it off when she heard Shane screaming.
"CAN'T YOU GUYS KEEP IT IN YOUR PANTS!" Claire tried to stifle her laugh and started listening to the lecture that Shane was giving Eve and Micheal. Once she heard enough, she tuned out and decided to get up and get a book upstairs. She carefully got to her feet and started climbing the stairs. Once she got up to her room and grabbed 'How To Kill A Mockingbird', she started coming back downstairs when she noticed Amelie's room door opened. Confused, Claire started walking towards it and gently opened it all the way and walked in. She looked around the room and saw everything in place and the portals weren't working so no one should have come through there. As she finished looking around she saw a bronze locket with a engraving that looked like a rune. As she got closer to it she saw that it was very old and probably was owned by rich powerful people. As Claire was about to pick it up she was interrupted by a gust of wind passing her. When Claire turned around she jumped back with terror in her eyes when she saw the person haunting her life.
"Hello Claire, have you come to play a game with me?" She asked with a sweet bitchy smile on her face as she crossed her arms over her chest.
"What do you want from me?" Claire asked backing away slowly.
"Oh Claire, that's easy. Since i am dead and the town practically worships you, you are going to do my dirty work."
"What does that mean?"
"Well you see that's actual quiet easy what your gonna do."
"Tell me Aylssa, what game do you want me to play!?" Demanded Claire as she was now backed into a wall. Aylssa started walking closer and closer until she was right in Claire's face.
"The game you play will be your decision, but only the future can tell what you do."
"What does that mean?"
"Well Claire this is actually really simple, but you know all those dreams that you have? How terrified are you of them?"
"Scarred to death, why?"
"Well Claire, get ready to face reality cause in this game, all these dreams come true." Aylssa said with a smile and disappeared. But before Claire could leave she heard Aylssa giving her a final message.
"Meet me back here if you value your friends lifes. Cause if your not here by midnight, well, lets just say one of your friends won't make it to see the sun rise."
