Missing Clare
Disclaimer: I do not own Degrassi
[A/N] Even though I still need I more review, I decided to post chapter 2 ^-^ EnJoy~
Chapter 2- "Curiosity Killed the Cat."
Clare's POV:
My eyes fluttered open, revealing a dark room. I blinked a few times. Was I dreaming? Of course not.. This is real. I remember it, now.
FlashBack:
*Bang!*
I heard a gunshot, and instantly ducked. What was going on? I started to panic. I began crawling on the floor, trying to get to a table, or anything, to hide around.
I felt strong hands grasp my hips, pulling me back, and I let out an ear-splitting scream. A Hand covered my mouth, and soon I was being dragged along the floor.
Suddenly, as if by magic, I blacked out, resting into a deep sleep.
End Flashback
I started to panic, realizing I'd been kidnapped. But by who? I suddenly felt scared, even more scared than the night Eli almost got stabbed by Fitz.
I wanted to scream, but something kept me from doing so. I was deciding on if I should make a run for it, or stay put. I didn't know who excatly I was being kidnapped by, where I really was, or how aggressive this person was willing to be. Tears stinged the corners of my eyes, as a dark figure appeared at the doorway.
"Clarebear, are you up, now?"
I heard a man's voice speak to me. it sounded so familiar, yet unkown.
"Aww, don't cry, Blue eyes." The dark figure walked over to my side of the bed, and gently reached over to wipe the tear off my cheek. I flinced and pulled back once his thumb caressed my face.
"Clare, it's only me, dont be scared. Im here to protect you."
Wait. Now I recignize this voice.. No.. It couldn't be who I thought it was, could it?
"P-please," I mumbled to the stranger. "Why am I here?"
The man let out a harsh chuckle. "Oh, Clare, Im just here to keep you safe, from the big, bad world."
Yes, I knew who this was, now. And I was even more scared than before..
Nobody's POV:
Eli leaned against the abandoned church him and Clare had once found while on a picnik. His eyes were bloodshot, from crying all night. Clare had went missing just the other night, and the whole town was on a search for her. He was worried for Clare, innocent, little Clare.
This is all my fault! This is all MY fault!
He repeated numerous times in his head. Out of fustration, he turned in his spot and punched the brick wall of the church. For a split second, he was a little relieved to get that out, until his knuckle started burning, and blood dripped inbetween his fingers.
"Damnit!" He yelled to the wilderness.
Suddenly, something from the corner of his eye caught his attention. He turned to his left, and laying a few feet away from him, on the floor, was a note. He hesitated for a second, but walked cautiously towards it, and picked it up. He unfolded the little paper, and gasped, reading the fine print:
"Curiosity Killed the Cat. But, are you willing to be that cat?"
Eli's hands started shaking, vigourously, rereading the note in his hands a few times. What could this possibly mean? He wondered. After a few minutes of long, hard thinking, something finally clicked in his head.
Clare.
Yes, he was certain this note was about Clare, specifically meant for him. Someone wanted him to try and go after Clare and the kidnapper. Eli decided it was best to go home, get some rest, and think about this decision. He folded up the note, and stuck it in his back pocket. He walked out of the church, and into the deep forest. Just as he was walking, he noticed something carved in a tree.
E + J = x3
Julia..
Eli took a deep breath, tracing over the letters slowely, with his index finger. His finger stopped, just over the 3 .
"Julia, please, If you can hear me, If your up there, whatever that may be, please, Im begging, keep Clare safe.. For me, for us."
He wondered if Julia could hear him. He wanted to know where exactly she was, and since he was an Athiest, he didn't believe she was in heaven. He didn't believe in heaven.
There was a sudden strong wind, around him. His eyes widened slightly, as a figure shaped infront of him. a pale, light girl appeared, smiling at him.
"Eli," Eli stood there, gaping, watching the tiny woman as she got closer, and closer, until finally she was close enough to reach out and stroke his cheek.
"J-Julia?"
The girl smiled pleasingly at him. "Yes, Eli, its really me. Long time no see, huh?" He stood there in amazement. Julia chuckled lightly, batting her eyelashes.
"I dont have much time left. But, I wanted to tell you something important."
Eli nodded, signalling for her to continue.
"About Clare, Im not sure how she'll be, but I can tell you now, If you really Love her, don't let her go. Find her. I can tell you truelly love and care for her, more than you've ever cared for me,. so go, find her, protect her"
Eli smiled. "Julia, I will always love you, and I thank you, even though your.. gone, your still here to help me out, like you promised."
Julia's eyes got wide, and her spirit started to fade. "Im sorry, Eli, but I have to go now, I hope you make the right decision."
And just like that, his first love disappeared yet again.
"Julia! Julia!"
The boy started calling out, running around, frantically, looking for the girl. "No! Wait! One more minute!" The once beautiful forest, started to change into fire, everywhere.
"Eli! Eli!" Eli stopped, hearing his name being called. The voice was distant, and suddenly, his eyes snapped open.
