I decided to change the storyline a bit because I'm bored hope you like it. xx
All four of us were sitting down watching a horror film that Shane had put on; to be honest it wasn't scary. It was about some kind of infection spreading and it turned people into these weird creatures that eat people's skin. There was a fit boy and his girlfriend a blonde as always, and a smart girl who didn't have a lot of friends. It was so obvious what was going to happen.
When right in the middle of the film I get a phone call.
I looked down at my phone, Josh's name flashes on my screen. "hey Josh" I say and Shane turns to look at me.
"Hey um Amelie told me to tell you she wants you at the lab in five minutes I know it's not a lot of time but.." he said
"Oh no that's fine" I smile "are you going?" I could feel Shane glaring at me.
"Yeah"
"Okay well I'll see you in a few Minuets thank you"
"Kay, bye" we both hung up
"You're going?" Eve asked
"Um yeah Amelie said that she wants me at the lab in five minutes" I grabbed my bag that I always kept down stairs, just in case something like this happened.
"Who's Josh?" Shane asked, uh oh.
"He's my apprentice" I said looking at him
"Since when?" He asked
"Since Myrnin and Amelie said so" Okay this was ridiculous, I'm going to be late.
"Why didn't you tell me?" He asked clearly offended. "Wait did Myrnin tell you to keep it secret, you know what, I'm glad he's dead, now you can finally stop crushing over him" How dare he.
"I can't believe you just said that, how dare you"
Shane just turned back to the screen. How dare he say that. I just turned around and walked into a portal.
Michael's point of view
What the hell? Claire had just got a phone call of Josh and Shane is acting like a dick about it. What the hell was his problem? I had been reconsidering his relationship with Claire every since Glory had put a Glamour on him. I think it's his fault yeah, because he let it happen, the fact that he didn't even look at what was inside of the bottles she and Vassily had given him.
He really doesn't deserve someone like Claire; he was immature, lazy, over- protective. I really think he just needs someone to protect after Alyssa died. She was a good kid. But as soon as Claire came, who looked defenceless and venerable he pounced. Only to find out she was anything but those things, okay yeah she was a little bit when we first met her, but now she's just as brave and strong as Shane is, okay maybe not as physically strong but she had a strong will and when she found something that helped other people she just wouldn't give up until everyone was happy.
"Who's Josh" Shane asked, I saw Claire swallow. She hasn't told him, and I would have done the same. But here comes the hissy fit and the jealously we all saw with Myrnin.
"He's my apprentice" She looked at him
"Since when?"
"Since Myrnin and Amelie said so" she replied
"Why didn't you tell me?" he was pissed "Wait did Myrnin tell you to keep it a secret, you know what, I'm glad he's dead, now you can finally stop crushing over him." I tensed, how could he possibly say that? That was below the belt, Claire didn't need this right now.
"I can't believe you said that" She said, she sounded broken, what had happened with Myrnin had got to her, how could Shane not see this.
She just turned around and walked into a portal. She really deserved better, I really hoped she and Josh got close, he was kind, smart and he pulled her away from Myrnin when she lost it. He got there before I did, and I saw how much it hurt him to see her like that, and after only knowing her for a few hours she already had that effect on him. I know Shane's my Bro and all but he really is being the world's biggest dick.
Claire's Point of view
When I got to the lab, Amelie had taken a seat behind Myrnin's messy desk. Josh was sitting on the faded couch, I took off my backpack and sat next to him. He was wearing a blue t-shirt with worn black jeans, he looked tired, as if he had been working all day. Standing in the corner of the room was Oliver looking slightly amused. But it looked like he was also tired.
"Claire" Amelie said tapping her fingers against the desk "We have something we need to discuss with you," She looked up and met my eyes "Josh if you would" I looked at Josh confused
"Claire" He turned and looked at me, "Have you ever wondered why you're so smart?"
"No, I'm smart because I actually took time to study" I said clearly confused
"But isn't it strange that you can remember everything that you have ever learnt"
"No, I make myself remember them" I said very confused now, where the hell was this going. How random was this.
"Claire listen to me, it was strange that as soon as you picked up a bow and arrow you instantly knew that if you used physics you could shoot a target properly" He said
"How do you know that" what the hell was going on?
"Claire, I'm not human" He said suddenly, My head snapped up
"What, then what the hell are you? You're not a vamp obviously because I saw you handling silver."
He moved forwards and grabbed my hands "Claire, I'm a demon" he said his eyes were pleading
"What?"
"I come from hell Claire, I'm a soldier demon, my job is to kill other demons that have become a problem." I looked at him, he was joking right.
"You're joking right?" I said
He looked up at me with serious eyes
"Oh my god" I said, I had dreamed of him kissing me, I had thought of him as a friend.
"Claire, that's not why you're here" Amelie said then turned to Josh "Tell her Josh" Her voice was impatient.
"Tell me what?" I asked
"Claire, please don't freak out please" he said "you're a demon" I couldn't help myself, I laughed, he was joking right please tell me he was joking, what does he mean I'm a demon? Don't you think I'd know I was a demon by now, I mean, come on.
"What the hell, you think I'm really going to believe this crap" I stood up but Josh was too fast and he was suddenly in front of me.
"Claire, it's the truth, please" he begged
"No!" I shouted "do you really expect me to believe you?" first Myrnin had died and now this, did life really hate me that much?
"Claire please there's something important-" Josh grabbed me
I suddenly felt very tired, like all the energy was being sucked out of me. "I'm so tired" I couldn't hold my body up, I fell into Josh and closed my eyes.
"Claire, Claire" I heard a distant voice but I ignored it, I just wanted to sleep.
I slowly opened my eyes, everything that had happened rushed back. Oh god.
"Claire?" I turned and saw Josh sitting there.
I sat up and backed away "No" I pointed at him "Stay away from me" my back hit a wall "you act all nice then try to pull this joke on me"
"Claire it isn't a joke, please listen" He grabbed me "You're eighteenth birthday is coming up, the reason you felt tired today, the reason you don't know you're a demon is because you have gone through the change yet, it happens on your eighteenth birthday" he looked me in the eye "you're inner demon is draining you're human power getting ready to come out,"
"No this is not real it can't be" I looked up at him "My eighteenth birthday is five days away"
"Claire you have to trust me, why would I lie to you?" He looked so honest
"Okay" I said finally "Tell me"
"Okay" He nodded and I sat facing him, my legs crossed, Amelie and Oliver had gone from the lab, I wonder how long I was out for?
"You're transformation will be at the exact time you were born, my body will change, but you will still be you, you will just look a bit different,_"
"Wait" I interrupted him "How different?"
"Not a lot, you're hair will grow, you're eye colour will change, you're nails will grow, you'll have a few tattoo's on your body and that will be it"
"Tattoo's?"
"There just marks, to humans they just look like patterns but to other demons, it shows, how powerful you are, you're name and you're age, and if you've found you're mate"
"Mate?" I asked
"Demons have mates, like soul mates, there life partner" He said quietly
"Do you have one?" I couldn't help but ask
"No" He looked sad "Anyway, you'll be able to move quicker, to fight, to think faster, to learn more, control one element, like wind, air, fire, water, earth, and sprit" he said
"Oh, like say if I got fire, I'd be able to like control everything that's fire, say, lighters, candles and stuff" He nodded
"Also you'd be able to manifest fire whenever you wanted, you could open you hand and call fire and you'll be able to use it in anyway, also it wouldn't burn you more" I nodded "And one other thing, you, you can't die"
"Like ever, so I'll live forever?" I asked
"Yes"
"Oh my god" then I realized something "Can you please tell me how I'm a demon?" I asked
"Well, Claire, If I do, I can't take it back" He looked sad.
I took his hand "Please" I looked him in the eyes, and braced myself for the worst.
"You're parents, one of them is a demon" He said this slowly I nodded "That means you have their demon blood in you, in this case, they probably didn't tell you because they wanted to protect you"
"Protect me from what?"
"Lucian" He said the name viciously "Any demon who is a half breed, well, their stronger than normal demons, because they have human blood in their tissues, it gives them extra strength, Lucian, he thinks that marrying, having sex with, or eating these demons will give him power, and lots of it" He saw my expression change, from curious to outright disgusted. "I know it's sick and well you see, you're the first demon crossbreed in almost 3 hundred years-"
"What? I'm what? Why didn't my parents tell me? I mean I know they did it to protect me and all but come on" I sighed "So if he finds me, he's either going to marry me, rape me or eat me" My voice squeaked
"Yes, but I swear Claire, I won't let that happen, and neither will your parents." He said suddenly "You know you're taking this better than I thought you would"
"It's either take it well or cry" I said, to be honest, I really should be disgusted that I'm something from hell but it really doesn't bother me. You will be able to learn faster, those words had got to me, to be able to learn, to have all that time learning. And the fact that, I'm not that venerable. But then one word passed through my mind Shane
What will Shane say, oh screw Shane, he doesn't care, and you saw the true side of him when he was in that gym a sly voice whispered through my head, and I listened.
"H...how weak will I be before I change?"
"um... I don't know I've never seen the change, I've only heard about what happens during"
"Okay" "Um... will you stay with me? I mean when I go through it?"
He took my hand "Of course"
"Thank you"
"You should rest, I don't know how much energy this will take out of you"
Yeah I decided to change things review and tell me what you think xx
