Chapter 11: Visitors and Strange Happenings.

Chloe's POV

Derek pressed his forehead against mine and closed his eyes, my face still in his hands.

"Excuse me" a voice coughed from behind Derek, he opened his eyes and turned to face the back door where the voice came from.

"Barry, don't be so rude they're just kids" a woman with light brown hair slapped his shoulder. "I do apologise for him, he can be so emotionless sometimes." She smiled looking at the dark haired man standing next to her. Derek turned fully to face them now keeping me behind them. "Oh it's ok dear we won't hurt your mate, Steven called us. Apparently you need some help." She smiled warmly at Derek, then to me. I stepped from behind Derek to stand next to him and he grumbled something. "Well aren't you just a pretty little thing, we must sort out your hair though I can smell the dye from here my love." She grinned, she wasn't old probably early forties, the man standing next to her around the same age he was tall and stocky, and she was just as tall with a slim figure.

"Who are you?" Derek grunted, I looked at him mouth open.

"Oh gosh how rude of me. This is Barry and my name is Anya, Barry say hello" she elbowed him in the stomach he grunted and said hello. I suppressed a laugh.

"What are you?" Derek grumbled. I looked at him again with my mouth open to say something when Anya answered him.

"Well," She smiled warmly at Derek but he just stood there confused. "Well I'm an Earth Feline and Barry's a telekinetic half demon."She smiled again and Derek just grunted a "huh" and walked to the fridge.

"I'm going to go look for Steven and the rest of the troops" Barry said as he planted a kiss on Anya's cheek she smiled at him, he left, then she walked towards to counter taking a seat. I did the same and sat on the stool opposite her.

"So what can you actually do" I asked interested.

"Well, I can control the powers of the earth dear, things like the weather, trees, stuff like that." She smiled, wow that would be pretty helpful against the Edison Group for sure. "I can also heal" she looked a little guilty as she said this. I wondered why. "You can guess what Barry does" she smiled and looked down at her hands.

"You want something to eat Chloe?" Derek looked up at me from the bowl of cereal he was eating by the fridge.

"Oh, no I'm ok, but there's some breakfast for you in the grill, Steven cooked breakfast a little before you were up." I smiled at him and he just grunted. I turned back round to Anya, "I'm going to go have a shower I'll see you later" I smiled at her I really needed to get clean.

"Sure, see you later Chloe." She replied. Derek looked up from his plate of food Steven cooked this morning. Locked my gaze, and then looked back down to finish his food. I walked up the stairs and grabbed a towel from my room before walking towards the bathroom. I opened the bathroom door closed it and locked it. I turned the shower on at let the steam fill the room with steam. I stood there looking at myself in the now the misty mirror. I stepped in the shower and the hot water flushed down my back it warmed my body inside out. I washed my hair and grabbed the towel shutting off the water. I stepped out the shower and wiped a mirror so I could get a good look at my hair, it wasn't black anymore but it was nowhere near the blonde it had been. I dried my hair in the towel leaving it damp then wrapped the towel around my body, I went to take a step forward to unlock the door to grab some clothes from my room when a noticed something dark on the floor, I bent down to touch it realising that the dark patches on the floor were blood. I stood up wondering where the blood was coming from, there was a trail from the shower over to the mirror where I had stood, I looked down and pouring down my leg was blood, I pulled back my towel and sure enough there was a gaping hole in my leg. I wobbled slightly, grabbing my clothes from the floor and shoving them on as quickly as possible, I opened the bathroom door only to stumble and trip on the frame knocking myself unconscious as I landed on the hard wooden flooring.

Derek's POV

Chloe left, so it was just me and the woman, I think her name is Anya. "So Derek, it is Derek isn't it?" She asked. I looked up from my food. She was pretty if you liked that kind of thing. I didn't really notice any girls to be honest; none had ever taken my interest well that was until I met Chloe.

"Yeah" I grunted. I wasn't really in the mood for talking so I started eating the rest of my food, god this breakfast was good.

"So Derek, how long have you and Chloe been together?" I choked. What did she just say?

"What? Well if you count Lyle House I'd guess a few weeks maybe a bit more." That question confused me a little but then again I didn't really listen to what people said.

"No silly, I meant how long have you been dating?" this time the food went flying from my mouth.

"We're not" I answered I don't think I wanted to talk anymore. "I'm going to the study I got things to do." I dumped my plate in the sink and left I think I heard Anya say something about her big mouth. Yeah she got that right that's for sure. I opened the door to the study and walked in. Surely there was something I could do to keep my mind off things. I walked over to the books but there was nothing that caught my interest. That was when I spotted a DVD laying by the TV, I picked it up 'Deep Blue Sea' wasn't this the DVD that Simon and Chloe were talking about? Something about speeches and sharks, I decided that I would watch it I turned on the TV and put on the DVD. I didn't watch much before I heard a large crash from above me. I paused the TV, I listened nothing more so I decided I would go see what it was. I walked through the kitchen Anya wasn't there anymore; she probably went to find the other guy, Barry I think his name was. I walked up the stairs and that's when I smelt the blood. I raced to the top that's where I found Chloe laying unconscious in a pool of blood.

"Can somebody help me" I shouted in the hope that one of the others in this house could hear me. I scooped Chloe up and ran back down to the kitchen placing her on the counter careful not to band her head. The blood seemed to be coming to her leg where the nail had been. I grabbed a cloth and started to apply pressure but it didn't seem to stop. "Does somebody want to help me now!" I shouted louder this time and Dylan walked in.

"What's with all the shouting I was trying to sle-" he took one look at Chloe and darted towards the back, "Steven she's bleeding again." Within seconds Steven was at the back door half staggering to get dressed.

"How long has she been like this?" He asked me.

"A few minutes not long" I grunted.

"Ok, Derek you can go now, thank you for finding her" He took over applying pressure to her leg and was asking Dylan to fetch him a cold cloth and some bandages. I left walking up the stairs; I walked down the hall to where Chloe's body laid a few moments ago, the pool of blood drying on the floor. I stepped around it and walked to my room, opened the door, shut it behind me and sat on the end of the bed. I looked down at my hands covered in Chloe's blood. I put my elbows on my knees and bent forward. I couldn't handle this.

Chloe's POV

All around me was black, was I dreaming? Where am I? I reached out my hand to find something to touch to feel but there was nothing. I walked forwards with my arms out but I still felt nothing. I called out, "Hello, is there any one here?" My voice sounded flat. There was still nothing around me. I looked around again and a small light shone in the distance, I walked towards the light as I got closer I looked down at my night shirt, it was covered in blood, I looked down at my hands they were covered in blood as well, the back of my hands were covered in blood. I screamed and the scene changed. I was standing on a cliff in a black dress; my hands were not clean of the blood they were covered with a few moments ago but where a pale white, whiter than my normal skin colour. I looked up and around me, it was stormy and the waves were splashing up on the cliff.

"There you are Chloe" a young girl was walking up towards me her figure slim and graceful, her skin just as pale white as mine. "Come on its time." She smiled and that's when I saw the flash of brilliant white teeth... and fangs. She was next to me in a flash. Another smile on her lips but not as friendly as the one she had given me just a second ago, her eyes turning blood red I realised what it was time for. I tried to run but ended up tripping on my own feet, she was pinning me down within seconds. "Chloe, I don't like it when my food runs away." I felt her fangs break the skin on my neck and I screamed she pulled back blood dripping from the side of her mouth. I managed to scramble to my feet I turned around and she had gone. I ran down a path that looked familiar. I stopped turned around and she was gone, I touched my neck where she had bitten me and blood flowed. That was when I saw the spider on the back of my hand; I flicked it off the find more creeping up my legs I screamed, thrashing around trying to get them off.

"Get them off me, get them off" I screamed clawing at my skin.

Derek's POV

I sat by Chloe's bed willing her to wake up, I'd been sat here for a good two hours now, but still she hadn't moved. Luckily Steven had gotten to her on time. I looked at the clock it was already 3pm. How did the time go so quick? I leaned back in the chair that was across from Chloe's bed. I had paced around and around the room so far. Annoyed Anya with questions about when she thinks Chloe would wake up, what was wrong with her, why her leg had suddenly started bleeding but she had no answers so she left me to brood on my own in Chloe's room. Suddenly Chloe started thrashing around her bed clawing at her skin.

"Chloe, its ok Chloe wake up" She bolted upright her eyes bright screaming. "Chloe stop screaming what's wrong?" I looked at her confused her eyes weren't focused they were glazed over.

"Get them off me, get them off" She screamed digging her nails into her skin.
