The Fight Over Claire
AN: Someone reviewed and pointed out that I spelt Myrnin's name wrong, but I can assure you that I corrected it:p
Pleaseplease R&R! And thanks for all the positive reviews! Sorry this has taken so long to write tho!;)
Claire
Eve burst into the room behind me and almost made me jump out of my skin. She started talking to Michael, as usual, but he didn't reply, he just stood there, watching Myrnin, waiting for orders. After a while she started tugging on his t-shirt, begging him to talk to her, even look at her. But Michael just stood there.
Someone collapsed on the floor behind me, I whirled around to look, and, Oh God, "Shane!" Blood was forming in a little pool around his head. I quickly grabbed the tea-towel nearby and pressed it to his head. I could faintly hear Myrnin's voice, "Get rid of her, she is of no use," and I glanced up in time to see Eve hit the wall and fall to the floor. Luckily, she was still conscious, but she was holding her arm at a weird angle and didn't try to get up.
Just then, someone pulled at my collar and sent me hurtling through the portal. I landed and was just gathering my bearings when a heavy body came through behind me. Shane. His head was still bleeding, but not as badly as before. I grabbed the towel covering Bob's box, thankfully, from the smell, Myrnin had been same at some point and tried to cover it up with air freshener, but it still smelt disgusting. Not the most hygienic of cloths, but it'd have to do. As I rushed back to Shane, Michael stepped through the portal. Shit. He had blood on his hands and still looked vague, but this time he was staring straight at me. No, over my shoulder. I felt cold fingers press into the back of my neck and now it was my body's turn to become cold.
Michael
What? All I knew was that I was unpacking the groceries Claire and Eve had bought, then some kind of whirring noise behind me. I turned and saw it was Myrnin, then, I fell asleep or something. The next thing I knew, I was standing in his lab, and my predatory instincts half kicked in. I could smell Eve's blood, but the source was from my hands, and because I had bitten her, I knew how her physical conditions were, she was hurt, badly in her arm, but she'd survive. It almost killed me to not run back to her as fast as I could. I was wise enough to keep my face and body the same as I found myself in, and to keep my eyes focused on him. I watched, oblivious to everything else as he followed Claire, using his speed and silence to make sure she didn't notice. Claire saw me when she turned, and Myrnin seized the opportunity to keep her still. Claire collapsed. "Put the boy outside the door whilst I deal with Ada," it took me a second to realise he thought I would do as he said immediately, so I looked for a boy, and found him. Shane was lying on the floor, and he was the source of the other blood I could smell, I obeyed Myrnin's orders and took him vamp-seed up the stairs and outside. But because I was Shane's best friend, I couldn't leave him to die, and stayed with him, making sure he was okay.
I must have been there only 5 minutes when he began to stir. "Shane, Shane can you hear me?" I desperately tried to wake him up, "Stay quiet, you've hit your head, and stay there until I come back." With that I left, hoping that Myrnin was so crazy that he wouldn't notice my lack of speed.
