~Chapter 13~
When Claire went back into her bedroom, she saw a note on her nightstand. "I wonder who this is from," Claire thought. She picked up the note and started reading it.
Dear Claire,
If you are reading this then I have gone off to some far away place. Please don't get worried, for I will be fine. You probably still don't believe me, but I HAVE thought it over and I have now realized that you can take care of your self. You were right, you aren't that same 3 year old girl that everyone used to pick on. I just wish that I had seen it sooner. Please forgive me for being arrogant and not seeing that you were happy with Shadow. When I return, you need to tell me the story on how you and Shadow met. Always remember, little sister, that no matter what happens... I will ALWAYS love you and defend you no matter what. I love you and please, for heavens sake, don't get yourself into trouble..
-Taeo
p.s. tell Night that he owes me... don't ask why... he will know.
Claire smiled. For a long time she had waited for her brother to say something that. "I wonder why Night owes Taeo," Claire wondered. She shook it out of her head and went to find Night.
After a few moments, Claire finally found Night. "Hey Night," Claire shouted to Night, who was currently talking to Shadow. Night heard Claire call his name and turned around to see what Claire wanted.
"What is it," Night asked Claire. Claire was out of breath from running, but she managed to say, "Taeo wrote me a note and in it he said for me to tell you that you owe him Night." Night sighed and then cursed under his breath. "WHY," he screamed to no one in particular, looking up at the sky.
Claire giggled, "Why do you owe Taeo, Night," Claire asked, pretending to be innocent (which, on occasion, she is not.... this is possibly one of those times she is not). Night glared evilly at Claire and said, "THAT, my friend, is something you will find out... in due time." With that, Night ran off towards the mountains.
Shadow and Claire were then alone. "Hey Shadow," Claire said. "Hmm??" said Shadow looking at Claire. Claire then took a deep breath and said, "Do you by any chance remember how we met?"
Shadow thought long and hard. It was a good question for he was about to ask Claire the same thing. He then looked back at Claire and said, "I'm sorry, Claire, I have no clue how or even when we met." Claire kicked the ground and said, "darn... i though you knew because my brother wants to know." "Typical," Shadow said under his breath.
