Chapter 18

Myrnins POV:

I am limp. Broken. I can barely move. I try to regain my strength, enough to stand. I grab onto my broken lab table, and pull my self up. My arms tremble as I raise from the floor. I began to walk to the other side of my lab to retrieve a blood bag when a tall dark figure appears before me. I growl as my instincts tell me its prey. The smell of blood, and a vision of my teeth ripping into flesh lights my eyes with fire, and my fangs pierce my gums, I open my mouth to reveal them so they shine in the light. A threat to ones prey. I took one step closer to the figure before me when a wooden stake is placed into my chest, just missing my dead heart. This weakens me more and I fall to my knees. I become weak in front of my prey.

"Shane" I snarled, "Welcome back".

"Yeah, great to see you too. Thank you for the warm welcome. Where's Cla-" His voice trails off as he looks around the lab in awe.

"Obviously she isn't here" I say sarcastically.

"Well tell me where she is then!" He begins to shout.

"Don't raise your voice boy, otherwise I shall use you for more than a verbal punch bag, but for something more practical. How about a fresh blood bag?" I say as I pull out the stake that seems to sit comfortably in my chest.

"Oh, don't think I don't have any more weapons Myrnin, you should know me by now. I am always prepared" The smirk that lined his face was enough to make me blood lust with anger even more. I snarled once again as a warning. He chuckled before turning away, I didn't see it coming but his fist made one swift bone crushing movement to my jaw. He knew I was weak. His advantage. It didn't mean he was going to win. Human scum.

I ducked before the second blow, just in time to throw my own. I kicked his chin, sending him falling backwards, he didn't fall to far, he saved himself before hitting the floor to kick me in the face. He missed.

"Oh Shane, how long I have waited for this to happen" I grabbed him by the neck and threw him into the wall.

"You never give in, and neither do I" I chuckled like the lunatic I am. The slowing of his heartbeat enticed my hunger fuelling the fire in my eyes more and more. His eyes were growing wider and wider. They shined with fear. I saw Claire in them, looking at me with disgust, hatred and anger. I dropped Shane to the floor. How could I be doing this? I could never win Claire this way.

"She's in Hospital" I said quietly, while turning away to think about my actions. Why am I doing what I am doing? How could I hurt the people she loves? I am not myself. I am anything but. I am a monster.

"What did you do to her?" Shane shouted, well tried. His voice was weak and raspy. I turned around to face him.

"No time for questions, you must see her. She is in no good state" I regret everything I have done. Everything.

He didn't even respond to me. He was gone.

Eves POV:

Just sitting here waiting is the worst. They won't even let me see her, they haven't told me anything. Everything is silent except for the long heavy ticking of the clock. I can't help but wonder if Michael is okay. I feel terrible for leaving him. What if he's dead? I stood up suddenly as I realised what I had done. I had left him to save myself. I am selfish. But I saved Claire. I collapsed to my knees in a heap. I sobbed until the last of my tears fell. I heard fast footsteps approaching. I looked up to be met by Shane's gaze. I gasped and rushed onto my feet.

"What-I Shane?" I cried and enveloped him into a bone crushing hug. He pulled back giving me a slight smile.

"Is she okay? Please tell me she is" He looked hopeful.

"I-I don't know, they won't tell me anything, what happened to your neck?" I cried.

"Ask questions later" he said as he pulled me back into his arms. His slow steady heartbeat comforting me.

"Claire Danvers?" A young male nurse questioned.

"Yes" I sniffled. "Is she okay?"

"She has only just become concious, she is still recovering so give her some time. You can come see her now if you like" He smiled reassuringly.

We followed the Male doctor until we ended up in a small room just outside the ward, decorated with gloom. I opened the door to a reveal, a feeble and flaccid little girl. That little girl was our Claire Bear. To see her so small broke my heart. Shane approached her slowly, lowering himself down onto the chair beside the hospital bed, placing his hand on her hers, their fingers intertwining. A tear dropped onto her soft white skin as he placed a kiss along her hand.

Shane's POV:

Seeing Claire laying there ripped my heart apart. Where was I when this happened? In a jail cell for being the Criminal I am. I did something stupid, and she paid for it. She got hurt, my sweet little Claire. Laying in this bed broken. I grabbed her hand, the feeling of her hand in mine, gave me shivers down my spine. A tear left my eye as kissed her hand. Her eyelids began to flutter at such a small touch, bringing a smile to my face.

"Hello beautiful" I say with a grin from ear to ear.

"Shane?" she says as her her petite graceful hand cups my face. I lean into her warm palm.

"Yes?"

"Is it really you?" she says almost as if she doesn't believe she is here.

"Yes baby. I am here. Don't you worry about that. I ain't going no where" I say slowly with a small smile tugging at my lips. She gives me that smile. That smile that sends shivers down my spine, the one that makes me melt, the smile she only gives to me.

"I remember you. I remember everything. I love you so much Shane. I am so so sorry" she cries. Tears fall from her eyes in streams.

"I love you too Claire, don't be sorry" I grip onto her hand tighter.

"Stay with me Shane. Stay with m-" her voice trails off.

"CLAIRE?, CLAIRE, BABY WAKE UP!" I shout. Her chest rose one last time, as her body gave out the last breath.
