Unaware

"Lau, I wanna go home now." Claire whined glancing at all the beautiful people in their overly expensive outfits and jewelry.

"I don't want to find somebody's head on my plate so I suggest that we stay and act like we're not terrified." Larry mentioned heading over to a blonde waitress carrying a tray of wine glasses.

"Larrys right if we leave someone here does and I know you don't want that to happen."

"No, but I don't like the way this is ball is going about." She huffed.

"Well that's no way to talk about this ball...."

"When you were invited, now is it Bunny?" Two women, who happened to be twins, appeared in front of Claire eyeing her as I they wanted to devour her. One of the twins had red hair that matched her long tight dress, the other sported grey hair and a tattoo sleeve that covered up to the right side of her next. Her grey dress wrapped around her, exposing every inch of her body except her private areas. Claire dug her nails into Laurent's arm and he jumped slightly glancing down at her.

"Claire, you know them?" Larry asked noticing her slight change in mood.

"Unfortunately I do, Laurent, Larry this is Sina and Sienna, my old classmates from FSU." Claire grumbled as she released her grip from Laurent. The red head, Sina, attached herself to Larry as she played with his Afro practically purring with delight when she felt how soft it was.

"I absolutely adore your hair it's............. Delicious."

"Uh, thank you?" Larry eased his way out of her grasp and reached for Lumen who wasn't paying any attention to either of the boys, he was scoping out Locale but so far he wasn't seen.

"I love a tall man in a suit.." Sienna says attempting to grab Laurent by the arm when Claire yanks her by her choker necklace.

"Don't you touch him." She growled.

"Oh Bunny it's always nice to share." Sienna pushed smirking at her.

"Y'know you always knew I like it rough." Sienna slithered her tongue across her lips and Claire groans in disgust.

"Your two are still disgusting as you were five years ago." Claire shoved her and walked away from the group getting lost in the crowd of people.......

{Laurent}

I walked towards the bar in attempts to avoid Sienna and her sister who were searching my brother, when I spotted pink hair with cat ears poking up from the center of the massive crowd.

"I'll be back I'm going to get Claire." I call out to Larry as I step down from the bar stool, however he halted me by grabbing the collar of my suit.

"No no no no no no no get your ass back here, don't leave me for those twins to find me!"

"They're not going to hurt you Larry, chill."

"You try having your ear fucked by a horny strangers tongue, I don't want them no where near me!" He hollered shivering at his recent thought.

"Why did you let her stick her tongue in your ear?" I raised an eyebrow.

"She tricked me." Larry mumbled and I stifle a laugh ushering him down the steps from the bar. I focus my attention on Claire and once I was close enough to reach her I snatched and a pair of female hands, Sienna gripped my suit.

"Are you running from me big boy?"

"No, I'm just chasing someone else, and you're kinda-"

"In his fucking way now move." Larry hissed harshly at her.

"Oh, you're not chasing after my Bunny are you? Trust me......"

"She's not as fun as we are....." Sina had creeped up behind Larry and he flinched flinging her arms off of him.

"Get off me, please!"

"Oh what's the matter you don't wanna play?"

"No, I'd rather not play, at all." Larry said pushing away from Sina

"Come on, we just wanna have some fun......"

"Just like we use to will Claire......"

"Sina,Sierra can I see you two please?" Claire interjected dryly staring at the women with deadly eyes. She stepped towards them and pulled the two giggling women away from Larry and I. We watch as they are swallowed in the sea of individuals and Larry sighs.

"You know Claire is starting to scare me."

"Yeah, me too....."

Laurent and Larry returned to the table Lumen had occupied and sat down next to him.

"Lumen you need to chill, have a drink, dance do something other than watch over us."

"I'm fine here, have you two been enjoying yourselves?"

"Surprisingly, yes after those girls left with Claire I actually starting to have fun." Larry said stuffing his mouth with a dinner roll.

"What girls?" Lumen asked.

"Sina and Sienna, Claire said they were classmates."

"Shit....." He cursed, standing up to glance over the crowd.

"What? At least no one is dead." Larry said as he danced in his chair taking a sip of water while looking aver the extravagantly decorated ballroom. A loud scream echoed through the room as the three men stood and glanced in the direction of the distraught wails of citizens, who were surrounding the balcony above them.

"Larry, I think you spoke too soon." Laurent pointed at the two bodies sitting lifeless with knives lodged into their throats.

"Oh fuck Lau, look at the dresses." Laurent squinted and realized the blood drenched dresses belonged to the twins that they had met earlier in the night. Laurent's heart began to race when he couldn't find Claire at first glance.

"Where's Claire?!"

"Ah, I don't see her."

"Shit!"

"Wait Lau calm down I'm sure she's fine. Just keep looking. But I-I don't understand, we're here Locale had no purpose of killing them so why do it?"

"I don't think Locale was the one who killed them......" Lumen pointed towards Claire who's skin and hair was drenched in red thickness as she walks through the middle of the crowd.

"What the hell happened to her?!"

"Jesus." The three men watched as Claire proceeds towards the table. As she struts closer you could she emptiness in her eyes, the slight grin that formed her lip quivered as tears stream from her face. She pushes through the gap between Larry and Laurent as she picks up her purse when Larry stops her.

"Claire what did you do?!"

"........."

"Claire please tell me you didnt do that to those girl-" Claire's giggles interrupted Lumen and the boy stand in disbelief and horror as they watch Claire turn to face them. She lifts her bloody finger to her lips and shushes them, whispering pointing to the bodies above.

"Shhhh, they're sleeping....... I would hate for you to wake them....."
