Days pass me by in much the same way and each night a new factor added to my dreams, just like a warning, and the second of February gaining closer and closer and closer and closer.

 Until...

-

Second of February. Feeling somewhat troubled as I get the bus to school and walk to each of my lessons. That uneasy feeling faded away over time but the feeling of being watched and followed didn’t.

By lunch all feeling and doubts had disappeared and I became myself again as we walked to English.

“Luuccciiiieeeeee”

“What! What did you say?”

“What? Oh um, I was saying how...” Matt’s voice begins to fade out as I stare past him and into the eyes of none other than Lucas. Shadows and voices in my dreams become clear and I glance around and realise that this is where it happens.

“Oh my god”

“What? What is it?” suddenly the fire alarm goes off and students scream and rush past me towards the fire escape.

“Lucie? Lucie ain’t you coming? I mean, it is a fire!”

“No, it’s not. It’s Lucas. Just go Matt. I don’t want you to get hurt!”

“Bloody hell Lucie! I’m not about to leave you alone with him!” suddenly he’s by my side and refusing to move, as well as Edward on the other side.

“I’m with him on this one, sorry babe” and he gives me the smile that made butterfly’s take flight in my stomach so long ago. Then the screaming starts.

-

Running once more along the corridors, but this time for real. If we don’t get to the hall in time this time, I’m gonna lose the bestest thing that has ever happened to me. I mean, Sophie’s always been there for me and she comes before everyone-even Edward. That’s how special she is and because of me her light is starting to fade already.

-

Finally getting to the hall and I crash through the locked door. Like I said, nothing is gonna get in my way. Looking around I can see Sophie chained to the wall, blood covers most of her but she remains awake and looks up to see me, a smile lights up her face and she calls my name, coursing all others in the room to look at the trio by the door.  And Lucas walks in front of all,

“Why hello. I knew you would come, oh, and you brought some appetisers! How sweat!” Then with a look to the side: “take them, but leave the girl” and the men around him start to make their move.

“NOO! I will not let you take anyone else away from me!!! This is between me and you Lucas and no one else!” with that he looks at me and signals his men to stop.

“You do always surprise me child. I mean you remember when you shouldn’t and you dare to challenge me, even through you can surely remember the last thing I said to you?”

“Next time I see you child, you will join us-weather by choice or force and I shall make you watch me and join in the killing of your family! We shall rip them limb from limb and drink their blood together!!!” a voice from my memories echo’s in my mind.

“Of course I do, and I’m here to tell you-that ain’t gonna happen! This ends here!”
