I know what I am doing and I don't like it. I'm letting Summer's words get to me. Her cold, hard words are messing with my head. I don't belong here and I am going to do them all a favour and leave... I just don't know when nor how... If I leave now, they'll be expecting it especially after Summer's little outburst. I'll wait a while...

'Tear them apart a little longer, huh?' The voice I usually ignore echoes my mind.

Ever since I can remember, I was treated differently by my parents and teachers. My mind has always worked differently. I was the weird kid at the back of the class that repeatedly twitched and refused to participate in anything social. I even spent time panting whilst looking all around me, making sure he wasn't there. 

Why?

Because I got so angry with the people around me, I fought against my violent side and I lost control of my nerves and began twitching... Much like a fish out of water - If you get my drift - Also I never spoke to anyone because I just wanted to... To kill them, in the most violent ways I thought of, I grew out of that one though, I was always nervous, in case the dark figure showed like he always would, just to watch, listen and follow. I was deluded, crazy, absolutely mental. The school and people around me were lead to believe that I had mental issues, strangely I didn't. It was just my mums excuse for how mucked up I was. How extremely damaged I was.

The voice in my head - Was, no is my violent side. I ignore it an awful lot... But lately that's been hard, almost impossible... It's getting louder and angrier. It's taking over and I can't be in control much longer, it is physically painful. Or well it used to be... I still have scars on my thighs from where I used my violent side to hurt myself instead of others. The last time that happend, my dad stopped me before I cried cuddled into his chest.

"Alice?" CeCe speaks "Are you okay? You zoned out... We've tried shouting... Clapping and snapping our fingers... You were just completely out of it" She laughs nervously
"Oh, uhm sorry. I didn't realize" I shake my head, blinking furiously, looking around - I hadn't even noticed we were back in the house. Louis eyes me carefully, obviously he heard all of that, well most... I hope he didn't hear my plan to escape...
"Can I talk to you a second, Alice?" The blue eyed, older boy asks. I nod cautiously following him into the back garden. Which I hadn't actually seen before, due to the season the grass was wiltering and leaves carpeted the ground but over then that it looked pretty well kept, with a barbeque area and such.

"I didn't know you struggled that much" He looks saddened as he speaks. While I am just relieved he didn't know my plan
"It was just a rough time... I am mentally ill. I have D.I.D... I-I'm two different people, Lou. I just- Just I don't know" I break into sobs. I hated talking about my split personalities. I hated having Dissociative Identity Disorder. I hate forgetting who I am, I hate forgetting good memories, I hate not being able to control my anger, I hate myself.

"I- I didn't know" Louis looks down for a second or two before enveloping me in a bear hug
"Well, what is going on here?" Summer's sickly sweet voice ripped me from Louis' comforting embrace. Summer looked panciked when she saw me crying but the emotion was gone quicker than it came "Harry already not good enough?" She teases evilly. The other me was rising slowly and painfully, I began doing that awful twitching and backed away carefully.

"Summer. Opinions to yourself" A unfamiliar male voice errupts, snapping me back to reality "How would Liam react to finding out his... Mate - Per say - is a royal bitch?" I looked for the man the voice belonged to, but didn't succeed.
What the hell?
"I'm here, sweetie" The voice says, this time right next to me, I turn and there stands a familiar yet unfamiliar guy "Name's Greg, Greg Horan" Ah! He's Niall's brother!

"Greg!" CeCe shouts as immediately hugging her soon-to-be, maybe aleady brother-in-law... Wait! Niall isn't a blood vampire so how is Greg here and a vampire too? I'm so confused.
"Greg is Niall's creator... He has invisibilty... Like CeCe but he has a sheild too" Louis explains for me while Niall runs out the house and hugs his brother, aw that's adorable.

"Why are you here?" Summer spits at the innocent Irish male
"Why are you still here?" He bites back "Go on, run along" He shoo's her off with a flick of the hand, she grunts but leaves us to socialize in the back garden nonetheless.

"So why are you here?" Niall questioned
"Her" He tilts his head to the side, smiling at me. I couldn't help but smile back. He is lovely
"M-Me?" I choke
"Oh, she doesn't know... Nevermind" He shakes his head "We need to-!"

"Don't say it. Don't even think it" Harry's rough voice caused a heavy silence to blanket us as he lean against the doorway of the house
"Harry you know it is going to have to happen" What is going to happen?

#Harry's POV# 

"Harry you know it is going to have to happen" Greg says. Yes, I know it is going to happen. They all need to shut up about it, it is stressing me out.

Yes, I know I need to turn Alice. Just not yet. Not anytime soon either. It has to wait.

Meaning we need to buy time, her thirst, her desires, her blood lust will spiral out of control and I won't be alive to pick up the pieces, because if what LuLu's book says is true, Alice we'll kill all of us and then where would we be?

Torn apart in our own homes, while Alice is out there killing poor innocent people? Yeah, that's helpful. 
"You know where you need to take her Harry, just let me know and I'll pack my bags and we'll take her there" He says seriously.

Yes, I do know where we need to go. Amazon, no, no, no. Not the website. The rain forest, in South America. You see, thousands, maybe even millions of years ago a Witch Doctor - The best sorcerer ever, actually - was messing around with his medicines and bang a juice was added that was never meant to be mixed with the healing liquid. But being busy with cutting and dicing the Witch Doctor didn't notice and gave ill patients the medicine and it killed them, in a way. But when they did come through, they wanted one thing and that was Blood.

Blood.

That's all we ever want. That's all I want, all Louis wants, all CeCe wants, Liam wants, Zayn wants even Alice. And now I've seen Alice thirsty whilst being only a dhampir, I am definitely expecting the worst when she's a vampire.
"We leave in two days. Book the plan tickets" I say sternly.

Now, why are we going there?

To see the Witch Doctor, of course. He can help. He can keep her human for as long as possible and more reliably then LuLu's potions, No offence to her, but she's just old and confused. Definitely on her way out.

"Where are we going?" Alice asks in a small voice.

"The Amazon, of course" CeCe says, her Yorkshire accent shining through her happy voice.

The Amazon. Of course.

===

Don't tell me how crappy this was because I already know, it was just a filler and yeah build up to big things! 

And you remember the giggling girls? From Chapter 9? No? Well go back! Because they're in the next chapter!(:
