Clarissa's Pov

I waited until the clock hit 2:00am. By now, everyone should be back in there rooms. I slowly opened my door and peeked my head out. There was no one in sight. I went to my desk and grabbed the cooler full of blood then,  I head out the door and close it softly. As I made my way through the building, I constantly checked my surroundings to make sure no one was coming.

Eventually, I was by the door to the cellar. When I twisted the doorknob it wouldn't budge. Great, it was locked. I looked down at the doorknob wondering how I was suppose to open it. I can't break the door because I don't know how to fix it; that will also blow my cover. Deep in thought, I heard a click. My head snapped right to the doorknob. Out of curiosity, I twisted the doorknob and pushed the door open. 

"Woah," I whispered to myself. Did I just do that? There is no way that happened by itself. Pushing the thought aside, I started going down the dark stairs. There were no lights on so I couldn't see. 

"Do you hear someone?" I could hear Magda say. 

"Shhh," Said a male voice. 

I got all the way to the bottom of the stairs and set down the blood cooler. I still couldn't see anything so I decided to put my new skills to work. With the flick of my wrist little flames shot up from my fingers; It lit up the whole cellar.

"What the fuck?" Said the boy. I looked over and saw that it was Chris. 

"How did you get down here?" I asked. 

"Oh I don't know. There was just this chick that got in my head and made me spill the beans and then they locked me up down here. Anymore questions?" 

"Nope. I just gotta figure out how to get your guys out of here." 

"Well good luck trying. You can't open these without the key." Magda said.

"I think I'll manage," I said as I placed my hands on the bars and used my mega strength to rip them down. It didn't work though.

"I told you. They built these things so tough that not even you can break them open."

"Well where can I get the key?" 

"My guess is the assistant of the leader. I know for sure that James is the leader. I don't know who the assistant is though." Magda explains to me. 

"Well that is helpful, how will i-" 

Someone started coming down the steps. With one swift motion the flames coming from my fingers disappeared. 

"Who's down here," I heard Amelia say. The lights turned on in the cellar. She looked shocked when she saw me. "Clarissa you are not suppose to be down here! I must report to Thomas because of this," 

"no no no. You can't do that," I replied.

"I'm sorry, you give me no choice," Out of panic, I grabbed Amelia by the shoulders and stared her right in the eye.

"You will go back upstairs and go to your room. You will not remember coming down here and seeing me. All you will remember is you going to thee restroom. Understood?"

"Understood," Amelia said in a stone cold voice. 

"Good. Be gone," With that, she walked up the stairs and closed the door behind her. 

"I think I know who has the keys," I said. 

"How do you know?" Chris asked.

"Thomas. She said that she would have to report to Thomas so I am almost positive that he will have them. I can't get you guys out tonight but I should be able to tomorrow night. Be ready. Oh and here." I opened the blood bag and evenly sorted the portions out. "Take these, You will need all the energy you can get for tomorrow." I gave them the blood bags. I could already hear them ripping open the first bag. "Don't drink them all now. Drink them throughout the morning." 

I picked up the empty cooler and started to walk back up the stairs. 

"Remember, be ready," I said
