Claire's POV

I woke up to my phone alarm and switched it off. I lay in bed for bit thinking about what I was going to do today. I could go and visit Myrnin and see if he needs any help which he probably need. I got out of bed and went to the bathroom. Shane's door was still closed which probably means he's still asleep. Don't know about Eve or Michael though. I went in the shower and then came out, dried my hair and put some clothes on. And went down stairs.

Michael was downstairs reading the newspaper.

"Hi Claire"

"Hey, do you want any coffee?" I asked making myself one.

"I'm fine thanx" he smiled.

"Im going now. Tell Shane and Eve ive gone to TPU." I replied

"Don't worry they'll probably know. They aren't exactly early risers."

Ok, bye" I called on my way out.

Outside is nice. The sun is shining brightly and everyone is going about their business. I headed into Common Grounds, to get a coffee as I needed help to wake up.

I walk in and find Oliver isn't there. Yay. He annoys me. Anyway I order my mocha and sit down at the table. Then my phone buzzes, and I look at it.

You have a text message from Amelie

Come to my office at 1pm

Amelie

Hmm, I wonder what she needs me for. I look at the time. 12:55. 5 minutes. I wonder what to do till 1. Apparently thinking takes 5 minutes as the clock said 1:00. So I get up and walk to Amelie's office.

I held my breath for a moment as I waited for her to accept my knocking at the door, running every possibility of why I was there through my head. The only likely conclusion I could decide upon was that Shane was either being killed or locked up - and of those two, I had to think that the latter was less likely.

"Come in," Amelie's dry voice called me in, her tone seeming as cool as the Artic Circle is in the middle of winter.

Finally taking a breath, I walked through the door and stood before her, waiting now for her to give me permission to sit - so archaic, yet this was what you did with this woman - which she did with a slight movement of her hand.

"Claire, you must be wondering why I have called you here," she began slowly, her voice now further away and more...melancholy? "There are many reasons, yet the most pressing one is the one that you shall like the least. Please know that I have thought this through and there is no other way."

I didn't know what she meant. "Are you talking about Shane, Amelie?" I asked her outright, not bothering with politeness. "Are you having him killed?"

She blinked once, then twice, and laughed ever so slightly, something I didn't appreciate. "Little one, what on EARTH makes you think I am discussing Shane Collins when I mention upsetting plans?" she asked me what I presumed was a rhetorical question. "Oh no, Claire, this decision very much revolves around you."

Once again, she confused me to the point where I had to ask what was going on. "What do you mean? Just TELL me!"

The smile on her face was, this time, more forced and I could have sworn I caught a glimpse of fang. "Very well, Claire. Your role in my plan is simple..." she cut herself off and moved to soon be standing beside me. "You are to become one of us."

I couldn't move. Every square inch of me wanted to run screaming from the room, yet I couldn't move a fraction as her hand moved slowly towards my hair and pushed it to one side. The ice cold air - or perhaps I was imagining it - hit my neck for a moment before her mouth was upon it, ripping into my skin in such a way that I was screaming in pain. Now I began to thrash and scream, inflicting more pain but not caring because I didn't want to be a vampire, tried to get away from her with absolutely no success.

I could hear her gulping down the blood in a way that made the last conscious thought I could remember be that I was sickened.

For minutes, I begged myself to black out, to remove myself from the conscious state of pain, but I wouldn't go.

Not until she was about to give me her blood did I do that.

Brilliant.

Sorry this chapter is so short. I'll try to make the next one longer.

What do you think? Please review! Thank you x
