Chapter 5

I slowly turned around to face Myrnin, still not believing he could see me. When our eyes met his face light up and he lifted his hand to see if I were solid.

As soon as he reached me I realized two things. One I was solid and two that there might be a chance for me.

I threw my arms around him and held him as tight as I could. He can fix this I know he can. He was surprised and frozen until he relaxed and became brave enough to return the hug

Leaning back, I looked up at him with a huge smile "I'm so glad you can see me."

"So am I…I missed you little one" he confessed.

"I missed you too" I missed working in his lab and learning from him. Even though he was crazy. He was still the adorable Myrnin that I enjoyed talking to. We had a lot in common. But my heart belongs to Shane.

He gave me a blinding smile, which made me think that he thought I was admitting feelings for him rather then the fact that I simply just missed our friendship.

"I've been working on how to bring you back" he said rather quickly.

"Yes I know…Frank told me," I told me

His face became angry " HE KNEW YOU WERE IN THE GLASS HOUSE AND NEVER TOLD ME?" he growled.

"I'm more interested in the fact that I'm solid…what did you do?" I asked interested.

"Ah yes, Frank and I had a falling out the other day. I sent him away with this new amazing piece of machinery. But he wouldn't show himself again…even when I tried to force him to. So I changed the design to show spirits that still walk this earth. I figured he would be one, considering he died under the trap door. Unfortunately I forgot the fact that his brain is physically still alive so it's a dead end."

He mustn't have been taking his medicine to forget the fact that he has franks brain in a machine.

"On the plus side…if I never changed the settings, then this would never had happened" he said excited.

I thought about that "True."

"Now Myrnin the first thing we need to if find your medication. You haven't been taking them…they must be somewhere around this mess" he gave me a beaming smile.

"You're being bossy… I think I like that," he said nodding his head.

I didn't doubt that all. Myrnin is like a puppy, if you don't play with him or try and teach him structure he gets depressed.

"And please go get a blood bag… I don't want you draining my temporary body," I told him. "Also you didn't end up telling me how this works." I gestured to my temperary body.

He nodded at me "The signals from that machine I spoke of can manifest your physical form around your spirit."

"So I'm just like that body in the incubator?" I said feeling my warm flesh.

"Incorrect" He replied.

"I don't understand?" I told him confused.

"That body in the incubator has blood, a heart beat and needs oxygen. As well as the necessary food and water humans have to survive. But your spirit is using a body also made of flesh but has no need for the necessary things a human needs to survive. It simply maintains its self from the energy coming from the Machine."

"But my skin is warm…I must have blood." I replied

"It is the energy that warms your skin and flesh Claire…are you breathing? Do you have a heart beat?"

They were questions, but not for him but for me. "No" I whispered.

"As long as that machine runs…you will have a form." He said while pointing to the floor where the small machine lay.

2hr later:

Myrnin had shown me all the research and notes he had taken while I was gone.

"I'm going to go feel my body and see if I can feel any type of connection to it," I told Myrnin.

His eyes almost popped out of his head and I realised how that must of sounded to him…he may be a Vampire but his still a male.

I continued walking to his room but couldn't help rolling my eyes "Pervert" I muttered to myself.

Closing his door behind me I could still see him staring at me in disbelief and to top it off he grinned.

Ewwwwww I thought to myself….men.

Now in front of the incubator I lifted the lid quickly wanting to get this over with as quick as possible.

I was never really able to feel my body when I was just a spirit, but with this form I am in and the extra energy from the machine mixed with my spirit I hoped I was strong enough for my body to fully recognize my spirit.

As soon as I touched my real body's fingers I felt a huge pull between us, like magnets. There was some type of connection between them… I could feel it. I was so excited that my pulse began to race, but then I could feel another cold heavy energy that slithered its way between my spirit and body. It refused to let them join.

"MYRNIN" I called out wanted to tell him about the pull between both bodies.

"MYRNIN?" I called out again, still no answer.

Where the hell is he? I made my way back to the lab area where Myrnin was sitting on the couch. He looked really embarrassed for some reason.

"Umm Myrnin I was calling out your name, why didn't you come" I asked.

His eyes widened again "You…you wanted me to join you?" he said shocked.

He was acting weird "Whatever" I replied. "I wanted to tell you there is a pull between our bodies."

"Really" he smiled.

"Yeah its like they want to merge together but there is something between them stopping them." I told me.

"I feel the same way," he gushed out.

"What the hell are you talking about? I'm referring to both my bodies." Maybe he needs more medication. I really wanted this over and done with, so I can get back to Shane…I miss him so much.

He looked disappointed "Oh" he said "Well I guess that's good news. Describe this feeling Claire" he got some pen and paper ready.

I REALLY WANTED THEM TO FIND A WAY TO BRING HER BACK IN THIS CHAPTER, I COULD HAVE HAD MYRNIN TURN HER WHICH IS THE EASIER OPTION, BUT TO BRING HER BACK HUMAN WILL BE MORE DIFFICULT AND I'M SURE IN THE NEXT CHAPTER THEY WILL FIND SOMETHING THAT WILL HELP THEM. ALSO I LIKE CLAIRE HUMAN. IT'S WHAT MAKES HER AWESOME ;)
