Broken In two

Chapter 10

"What are you doing! Have you gone completely mad?!" My eyes spring out of my sockets at the sudden outburst that I have to encounter. The sudden begging of Seth almost made me transfixed to his sudden features, that in all my life have never dreamed would ever think in such a liking towards, a craving and desire clawing inside me.

"Please Claire, I'm your brother. You can't do this to your own flesh and blood can you?" He spoke in a steady voice, his hands up in surrender. However, Claire never budged. Her emotional state was still in contact, determined, holding the solid object firmly, looming over Seth, threatening and menacing. "What is going on here?" Laura's innocent face loomed into view, tears trickling down as she looks in horror at the gun, whom Claire has continued to hold, ready to pull the trigger.

"What are you doing, C.....C.....Claire," Laura let out an ear piecing scream of anguish yet her palms smothered with sweat and shaking with might, she lunges towards Seth, wrapping around Seth like a snake squeezing the life out of its prey. "You can't so this, can't do this, can't do this..." The poor girl was taken aghast to the sudden battle between brother and sister that it looked as if her mind was in a different universe altogether. She continued her trance of words for the remainder of 5 minutes, which in all that time led me and Seth stare helplessly towards Claire.

Moments later, Claire shifted from that unease state of mind that she was trapped in just minutes before. She started to crumble, pounding the air, cursing and spitting like a deranged demon, her slurred words were targeted at Seth as though with her eyes, she was trying to locate his corrupt heart and destroy it all together. Claire was not of her usual self, just a crumbled heap on the floor, with fists clenched tight. The gun slowly slipped from her grasp as she finally broke that composed state, standing up with swollen, puffy red eyes wailing uncontrollably. My hands gripped the ends of my bed, as I could not bring myself to believe what I was watching, glued on the drama that has left me utterly speechless.

"Get out! I ..... Hate you! It's all because of YOU!" Through sobs she managed to let loose her anger and despair but in the process she collapsed on the hard, tiled floor with a thud. "Claire! Claire!" I leap out of my bed, pushing past Seth, who from which I could see was staring absentmindedly at the wall, unfazed by the sudden fall of his sister. Laura, her eyes as wide as two galaxies, ran from my room, her wailing seemed to increase with every step she took. I start to try to find Claire's pulse. "Claire's soft, brown hair concealed her face from view. "Claire! Wake up! Wake up! I need you!" Although I found her pulse, my mind swirled in darkness. I clutched at my head and grasped on Seth.

"Help her, please, she is all I got," I begged for his attention. My deliberate touch brought him back to reality. "What,... Oh my god!..." He lifted Claire with his strong arms, and carried her, bridal style towards the living room.

I trudged along after Seth, my legs no longer able to carry my weak body, any second my legs would give way. Not because I was tired but because I was so overwhelmed in what just happened just minutes before. Before we could get through the vast, double doors to the living room, hoarse voices and shrill cries could be heard within.

I give a quizzical look towards Seth who also looked shocked to hear the cries which rang in my ears. I steadily push the Door slowly open. To my surprise, the commotion of scattering feet pounded against the floor welcomed my now bleeding ear drums. "What the..." Before I could finish my sentence, monstrous machines let loose rapid gun fire. It threatened to demolish the place within minutes. I looked on in disbelief and also even Seth gave a bewildered looked shocked at the turn of events happening just steps away from were we were standing. Claire was lucky, still unconsciousness she didn't have to see what me and Seth were staring intensely at. Wounded people lay everywhere, crying for help,injured and scared for life.

Men in black masks, holding various weapons of every kind, we're taking over, destruction everywhere they went. I caught sight of one of the intruders. As soon as I did sparks flew from between us as I lingered into his emerald, green eyes. It felt like it wasn't for the first time. I could feel an electric current soaring through my finger tips like I was brought to life again. Could this be my Mathew...
