Into the Looking Glass Chapter 7

Emma and Claire walked through the dark forest looking around to see if anybody else was there. There was the sound of footsteps coming from a distance. Claire was about to yell, when Emma put her hand over her mouth.

"Don't yell!" she whispered. "It might not be Peter. I dreamed of this place when I was little, it was not a nice place. I would always hear strange noises, and something would always be chasing me. I always woke up before it could get me, but I have a feeling that this time I'm not going to wake up."

"How are we going to find Peter?" Claire asked.

"Lets just stay quiet and keep walking, we might run into him." said Emma, continuing to move forward, Claire following close behind her. There were odd noises all around, things neither of them had heard before. Emma stopped suddenly and Claire stopped right behind her.

"What is it?" Claire whispered. Emma pointed to a figure on the ground several feet in front of them. Claire moved around Emma quietly, trying to get a better look at whatever it was. She noticed something about it.

"I think its someone laying in the grass." Claire said in a hushed tone. She moved a bit further and Emma followed slowly. As they got nearer to it, they noticed it was the body of what appeared to be a man. The forest was so dark, it was hard to make it out for sure. Emma began to move slower afraid to go to near of it. Claire continued to move to it. She began to go faster as she noticed the man was familiar.

"Is it Peter?" Emma asked, noticing that Claire seemed to know the man.

"No," said Claire bending down over the man and looking closer to make sure it was who she thought it was. "It's my biological father."

Niki arrived back in New York, sooner than she had expected. She hurried through the streets to the apartment that she had bought. She unlocked the door quickly, and opened the door. No sooner that she opened it DL wrapped his arms around her.

"I thought he was going to kill you." said DL.

"So did I." Niki replied hugging him back.

"Mom!" Micah shouted when he saw her. She bent down to hug him.

"I'm alright!" she said reassuring him.

"What about Sylar?" DL asked.

"He won't be able to follow us." said Niki. "He didn't look like he could survive much longer, and he said that he had no one who could help him."

"So were safe." said DL.

"I'm not entirely sure about that." said Niki softly "He said he had friends."

"What kind of friends?" DL asked.

"I don't know, he said he had help getting to Vegas, and that he knew someone who lived there that could heal him, but he wasn't there." said Niki. "I have a feeling Sylar is the least of our problems right now."

Emma's mother was putting away the dishes when she heard a knock on the door. She put down the plate she was drying and opened the door. Noah was standing in the doorway.

"Can I help you?" Emma's mother asked.

"I'm Noah Bennet, I believe my daughter Claire is here." said Noah.

"Yes, Emma came home with Claire today." said Emma's mother. "Her and Emma are hanging out in Emma's room. Would you like me to go get her?"

"I just wanted to tell her something." said Noah.

"Claire, your father is here." said Emma's mother walking to her room. "Claire?" Emma's mother walked back into the room with a confused look on her face.

"What is it?" Noah asked.

"There gone!" she said.
