Disclaimer: I do not own the CDF saga. Only my OC(Uisce )

(DARREN'S DREAM)

"Hey Sam!" I called over to him. He snapped his head up to my voice, and ran over to me.

"Hey Darren! How have you been?" he asked in an ecstatic voice.

"I've been better..."

"What's wrong?"

I told him everything about what had happened in the last few weeks. How Mr. Crepsley had left, Evra's betrayal and how I was visited a lot by Harkat and Mr. Tall.

He was silent for a minute then a smile lit up his face.

"OH! I know, Darren! Why don't you go and have some of your own fun? You don't need to have people with you to have fun."

"I dunno, Sam. What could I do? Play twister? No thanks."

"Well, it's just a suggestion. I miss you a lot Darren."

"I miss you a lot too Sam."

We laughed and played a game of 20 questions. Then we talked about what Sam was up to in Paradise and how everybody was. I laughed so much when I was with Sam. He was probably one of the few friends I had left.

"Oh, hey. It looks like you are waking up," Sam said as the air around us started to shift. This is usually the sign that I was about to wake up.

"BYE!" was Sam's last word I hear before I opened my eyes to see the world once more.

I opened my eyes and cover them with my hand as soon as they opened. The sun was in my eyes, so I could tell that I woke up to a sunny day. I sat up and went to go change out of my shorts into a full outfit. Not the pirate costume, but a black long sleeve undershirt and a blue shirt. Then a torn up pair of jeans. I called it good and went back to my bed, flinging myself down.

I stared up at the ceiling for hours before Harkat came into my tent.

"Hey Darren. Have you eaten...anything today yet?" Harkat asked me. See, the thing is I went into depression a while back. That's why he asked me. Harkat's kind of like my own caretaker now. If it wasn't for him, I would have died months ago. Yeah, I said months. Mr. Crepsley hadn't returned yet. Even though he said only a month, two tops. It has been over five months. Evra had abandoned me before Mr. Crepsley had left and now he was practically pretending that I didn't exist. And to be honest, he was doing a damn good job at it.

"No, nothing." I sighed miserably.

Harkat sighed, and looked at me with those green eyes of his.

"Darren, this isn't healthy. You need to get out in the sun...drink blood, and eat on your own. You shouldn't have to have me... force you to do all those things."

"I know, I know. It's just that...well, maybe I want to be by myself sometimes. And this is one of those times."

He looked up at me and if looks could kill...

"So you are saying that the past five months...has been time that wanted to be by yourself? Wow, Darren. That's just wow." Harkat snapped at me.

He got up, and stomped out of the tent, slamming the door behind him.

Mr. Tall came into my room later that day. He said that he already told all of the other Cirque members that we were leaving where we were and moving to a different place. He showed me on his wicked cool map where it was. He told me a lot about that place. They had a lot of good beaches, some really cool caves, and the best part was the views over the cliffs. Over a towering 100 feet high cliffs, into a beautiful blue ocean. Of course, this is all depending on the weather. Sometime they had a beautiful day, with clear skies. But other times, the blue ocean was black and the rip currents were so strong, that it had caused over ten people to die from just swimming on the beach. Though, for some reason, they were found out in open water, not near the beach.

"Everything is going to get better, Darren. Just watch and see." He got up and walked out of the room to go attend to other things.

"Sam!" I called out to him. He wasn't there yet, and usually he would always be there as soon as I called his name. Come on Sam, where are you? I thought to myself.

It must have been a few hours before Sam came into sight.

"Finally. Where have you been Sam?" I mused.

"D-Darren. I'm so sorry. I thought that you knew..." Sam whispered.

"Knew what? What are you talking about?"

"Darren...you don't know...oh my god..." Sam wept. He turned around, running his hands through his hair.

"I am so sorry, Darren. I thought that you knew..."

"Knew what Sam?"

He turned back to me, with his face streaked with tears.

"I was talking to him about you. I thought that you knew. That's why I didn't come for a while...Darren...I'm so sorry..."

"Sam! What don't I know?"

He looked up at me, tears glistened in his eyes.

"That the vampire, Mr. Crepsley. He's dead. I was talking to him about you. H-he doesn't remember you at all. But he remembers everything else."

D: Wow. I know that it's been a while since I updated, and for that I apologize. I also would like to apologize on this cliffhanger. BUT, I promise you that things will get better. For those of you who are obsessed with Mr. Crepsley as I am,read the following:

SPOILER!( IF YOU DON'T WANT ONE-DON'T READ THIS!)

Mr. Crepsley is alive, and he will be told that Darren is dead.

Can't wait for more now, canya? :D
